Quantum Spacesuit
00:43
|
|||
In the year 20,00X...
A boy and his dog, fed up with the world in which they lived,
Decided it was time to leave their planet behind...
On a never ending quest for new horizons,
They’ve tipped the balance in the quantum fabric of space and time...
The tides of dark matter have taken over
And they have fallen into the abyss...

Stuck
03:19
|
|||
I’ve been trudging around downtown
Can’t seem to get around like I want to
I don’t like being bound, or stuck to the ground
Unmoving familiar faces
Stumbling right through the small spaces
My hands are bound, and I’m stuck on the ground
I’m all up in my brain and searching
Tryin’ to find...
Looking for the answers and going
Out of my mind...
Bound to the earth, desires in the sky,
I’m itching to groove...
I’ve gotta get up off the ground, and make a move
I’ve been fastened down to the pavement
Reaching out but I just can’t take it
I don’t like being bound, or stuck to the ground
Time’s tied up, break into a fit
Try so hard and sometimes fake it
My hands are bound, and I’m stuck on the ground
I’m all up in my brain and searching
Tryin’ to find...
Looking for the answers and going
Out of my mind...
Bound to the earth, desires in the sky,
I’m itching to groove...
I’ve gotta get up off the ground, and make a move
Start a new groove, get up and move
Start a new groove, get up and move
Leaving this planet behind

Jet Pack Juice
04:25
|
|||
I need a rocket to fly me into outer space
I don’t care too much for the human race
The jet pack juice isn’t good enough, I need some thrusters to get up
I need some horsepower, to get me off this rock
I’m gonna go, go far away
I’ve gotta go, I just can’t stay
Please just don’t get in my way
I’m gonna build a rocket, I’ve got the blueprints in my brain
I’ve collected all the parts, and they’re welded to the frame
I’m ambitious, they’re superstitious, they call me crazy and insane
But from the looks of it, their frame is kind of lame
I’m gonna go, go far away
I’ve gotta go, I just can’t stay
Please just don’t get in my way
My way…
Conventional vehicles don’t cut it anymore
Foot on the fuel injector, blast through the door
Thank you Major Tom, this countdown’s engaged
Don’t need no ground control, it’s time to fucking RAGE...

Messing With Your Head
02:53
|
|||
Brain’s in zero gravity, no signs of life in front of me
I need you to make fun of me, eyes are blind and I can’t see
Pinch a nerve, pinch some skin, space cadet I’m wrestling
Blast into the universe, throat is strugglin’ with a thirst
Never fret...
Horse behind the cart
It’s spike, then set!
Never fret...
We’re just trying to mess with your head
Proving that it’s full of lead
We’re just trying to mess with your head
Observing skies overhead, signs that point can be read
Always careful where I tread, the hunger now it’s getting fed
Pinch a nerve, pinch some skin, space cadet I’m wrestling
Blast into the universe, throat is strugglin’ with a thirst
Never fret...
Horse behind the cart
It’s spike, then set!
Never fret...
We’re just trying to mess with your head
Proving that it’s full of lead
We’re just trying to mess with your head
We’re just trying to mess with your head

Mars in the Limelight
04:27
|
|||
Propelled by light, compelled by sights
The energy pushes you forward, don’t look back...
Mars is in the limelight
And you can’t stop it
It's set its sights
It’s a fight for your life
No flight, no flight, no flight
Prepare to fight
The wind is blowing black as night now
It’s stirring up quite a fright
Glue yourself down, attention is paid
You can’t get away, get away
Mars is in the limelight
And you can’t stop it
It’s set its sights
It’s a fight for your life
No flight, no flight, no flight
Prepare to fight
Drawn into conflict...
No one’s there as you look to the side
Not even with peripheral eyes
Not even with peripheral eyes
Mars is in the limelight
And you can’t stop it
It’s set its sights
It’s a fight for your life
No flight, no flight, no flight
Prepare to fight

Tazmily's Money
04:09
|
|||
In the town square, on the islands of nowhere
It’s a peaceful place, no one bothers with the rat race
Then they infiltrate, the swine and a man full of hate
They introduce happiness, with a box and a loaded kiss
Tazmily, you don’t need the pig’s money
You just have to learn to stand on your own
Over time now, the village has sure grown
But at what price, happiness we should have known
When they infiltrate, the swine and a man full of hate
They destroyed peace of mind, maybe one day we’ll still find...
Tazmily, you don’t need the pig’s money
You just have to learn to stand on your own
In the town square, on the islands of nowhere
Oh what it used to be, a place to live peacefully
So they crushed a great place, they changed it just to taste
They destroyed happiness, with a snout and a loaded kiss
Tazmily, you won’t fight the pork army
You’ll just have to learn to take back your home
Infiltration by the snout, find a way to throw them out
Infiltration by the snout, find a way to throw them out
Down with the snout, take them out
Down with the snout, take them out

Sew Its Seams
03:30
|
|||
Can’t stop, you got too caught up in the festivities... oh please
Try again to prove your ridiculous hypothesis... dear me
You say you’re getting closer, you say you’re growing taller
Cleave the leash, cut loose, misuse, and waste yourself some more
If you’re discreet, your threads won’t deplete
Tell yourself it’s alright, right before you unravel
Had a fit to get stitched up
Now you’re falling apart again at the seams...
Glad you’re not on my team
Can’t stop you got caught again, this time you’re gonna jump right off
Let yourself get dragged down into the flames, just to get burned again
You say you’re getting closer, you say you’re growing taller
Shed responsibility enjoy the ride and waste yourself some more
If you’re discreet, your threads won’t deplete
Tell yourself it’s alright, right before you unravel
Had a fit, had to get stitched up
Falling apart at the seams...
Glad you’re not on my team
Give me the needle...give me the thread...
I’ll put you back together again
Give me the needle...give me the thread...
I’ll put you back together again
If you’re discreet, your threads won’t deplete
Tell yourself it’s alright, right before you unravel
Had a fit, had to get stitched up
Falling apart at the seams...
Glad you’re not on my team

Fully Clothed
04:17
|
|||
Fleshed out...Fleshed out...
Fleshed out...Fleshed out...
Shouldn’t walk around without clothes
Sneaking by on tip toes
Now you’re exposed, the info’s disclosed
It’ll be tomorrow before you remember making any foes
Now you’re exposed, the info’s disclosed
It’ll be tomorrow before you remember making any foes
Pop a pill, sit and chill
Wear your other face and cut to the chase
What you say... is never what you mean...
What you mean...
Getting by while fully clothed
Entitlement sure was betrothed
Now you’re exposed, the info’s disclosed
It’ll be tomorrow before you even awaken I s'pose
Now you’re exposed, the info’s disclosed
It’ll be tomorrow before you even awaken I s'pose
Pop a pill, sit and chill
Wear your other face and cut to the chase
What you say... is never what you mean...
What you mean...
Green is the color of your skin
Green is the color of your skin
Fleshed out...Flesh out...
Fleshed out...Flesh...
Pop a pill, sit and chill
Wear your other face and cut to the chase
What you say... is never what you mean...
What you mean...

Spills
02:42
|
|||
I cannot pretend that I like your presence
To me it seems like there’s a lack of substance
Floating around the ship in zero g
All I can see is that your glass is empty
Shattering on the floor
Your glass, it breaks
Clean up your spill while you can
Before the spill seeps through to the core...
Now that I pretend that I like your presence
You take advantage and you dig your claws in
Deeper with every single breath you take
The decision’s mine, it is not yours to make
Shattering on the floor
Your glass, it breaks
Clean up your spill while you can
Before the spill seeps through to the core...
Useless...Worthless...Useless…To you...
We’re all...
Useless...Worthless...Useless…To you...
Shattering on the floor
Your glass, it breaks
Clean up your spill while you can
Before the spill seeps through to the core...

Another Shore
05:57
|
|||
Waves rolling in and out ever since the sea was born…
She was torn... from it
A dream drifting radically, away on the waves…
On the way...
Washed up on an unknown shore
Brought by forces to do their chore
A deed which they cannot perform
A task forlorn...forlorn...
Chasing after...even if it means drowning…
In the deep sea...
We’ll see, we’ll see...
Chasing after...even if it means drowning…
In the deep sea...
We’ll see, we’ll see...
Piecing the story together from the scraps of old… legends told
Long after the first page was torn...she was born...to live
Washed up on an unknown shore
Brought by forces to do their chore
A deed which they cannot perform
A task forlorn...forlorn
Chasing after...even if it means drowning…
In the deep sea...
We’ll see, we’ll see...
Chasing after...even if it means drowning…
In the deep sea...
We’ll see, we’ll see...
Found…drowned...
We must be... We must be...gone
We're still here...We're still here...
We're still here...We're still here...
Found…drowned...
She can’t be... she can’t be...gone
Found…drowned...
We must be... We must be...gone

Don't Mind
03:41
|
|||
I said I met you at dawn in the control room
And I left you Friday night out on the rock
I left you high and dry there on that hell hole
But I’ll never leave my love like this again
I’ll never leave my love like this again
I woke up in the morning just to find you
Strung out and half asleep in the bed
But when I tried to find the time
You just came and blew my mind
And now I have to leave my love alone again
Yeah, now I have to leave my love alone again
I don’t mind
Got no time
If you left, you know it wouldn’t matter anyway
I’ve come to find
You’re not my kind
But I guess you'll have to do for today
I saw you in the hull the other morning
You were goon eyed and looking not so bright
When I tried to calm you down
All I could do was frown
And I knew I was in for a fight
It was sure to be a long damn night
I found you in the corner you were crying
And I tried to ask you what the hell was wrong
When you turned, right then I learned
But I could not find the words
I simply knew the love I found was gone
Yeah I knew the love I had was gone
I don’t mind
Got no time
If you left, you know it wouldn’t matter anyway
I’ve come to find
You’re not my kind
But I guess you'll have to do for today
You’re fighting for your life in a bubble
Air tight and about to lose sight
Can’t hear the words that I am sayin’
Black out, float out, and it’s “good night”
You’re fighting for your life in a bubble
You’re fighting for your life in a bubble

Monocle Maniacs
03:59
|
|||
The way forward is always up
Obscured by ignorance some don’t see
You have to chase your dreams vertically
You see through one eye only
When you run into trouble
Don’t call out for me
Please just adjust your eyepiece accordingly
Accordingly...
Lift off...
Road block head is in the way
Gonna go straight through no matter what they say
You see through one eye only
When you run into trouble
Don’t call out for me...
Please just adjust your eyepiece accordingly
Accordingly...
Let your other eye wander
You’ll find yourself lighter
Light enough to float away
To float away
Cover the distance
Sickened by the arrogance
You can’t hear through the dissonance

Black Hole
05:19
|

Erased... by the human race
Erased... by the human race
Keep your mind in check
Despite its defects
No telling what we’ll see
Now that we’re free...Now that we’re free...
Out in this ocean
Of stars and space
Traveling ever so further
Leaving no trace...Leaving no trace…
Sucked through the unknown
To another time and place
Can’t wait to see
More of this space…
Focusing on the prize
No matter what the size
This source of energy
Is just a tease...It tries please…
Once we found the source
We set a new course
Inspired by what we see
It’s time to flee...it’s time to flee...
Came from the earth
Vanished in outer space
No longer a part
Of the human race
Erased by the human race
Erased by the human race
Black hole has found its course
Ripped apart by the tidal force
It's too late to postulate
The fate of existence in this place
We're gonna be...
Erased by the human race
Erased by the human race
