1.	Burn Us Clean 03:44	lyrics	buy track
Poison voices draw first blood It’s to the death Struggle under weight of temper Losing breath Staring at the sun Burn us clean Standing still demanding action Follow blind Shadows cast on stale intentions Left behind Staring at the sun Burn us clean Piles of dust and ash are gathered Carefully Inky trace of information Set to seed Staring at the sun Burn us clean Memories hiding Forming echoes Sparks fly from her eyes
2.	Stitch 03:54	lyrics	buy track
Make no promises Sit tight you’ll recover Act experienced Make them blow your cover Clip our wings and set us free Crash to earth and let us be Clip our wings and set us free Crash to earth
3.	Patricia Perfect 03:46	lyrics	buy track
Filling empty spaces Quickly lost and found Count the lonely faces Feel the lonely sounds Always never on time Patricia Perfect Always first to be last Patricia Perfect Half a sweet reflection Ahead but now behind Repeat the wrong direction Pretending she’ll be fine Voices chatter by Not supposed to cry Or ever wonder why Patricia Perfect Steps out from her past Never waiting to be asked So steady in her task Patricia Perfect
4.	The Baco 03:04	lyrics	buy track
These are my real friends See for yourself They cover my apron They’re under my nails Stuck in my boot print Always with me We drive home together Watch late night TV These are my real friends Take a close look Smeared on my apron The rest have been cooked Tonight is the late shift With the roaches and rats We’re in this together Fighting for scraps How bout we cut you some kidney We’ll boil the gristle and brains Better mop up the grease And the blood blood blood Hose it all down the drain Wrap up the ham and salami My friends are leaving again Better mop up the grease And the blood blood blood Hose it all down the drain
5.	It Seems We're Sinking 03:18	lyrics	buy track
Didn’t ever listen Now the right words Never come Chase away the silence When the right words Never come Rearranging pieces But the right words Never come They never come
6.	Pressing Matters 02:23	lyrics	buy track
Working from the break of dawn Whipper snipping all your lawns Moan at whom it may concern Muscles ache and lungs will burn Digging til my throat is dry Tell me how and ask me why Shithouse jokes are wearing thin Just make sure we listen in Something we should know Voices on the radio Something we should know There’s something we should know
7.	Tailspin 05:50	lyrics	buy track
Wipe away sweat with back of my hand Anything you need Just let us know I yell all kinds of dark shit But no one dares make the call Waiting for the rain With secrets that remain Dare to make the call Were we ever here at all Storms hit The message changes Draw lines primed to attack Eyes peeled Shiver in the dark But no one dares make the call
8.	House Of Lightning 03:59	lyrics	buy track
Split My vision spins Can’t feel my feet As the cold sets in Close To believe this fiction In empty hours Rehearse my lines Faint A brief impression I imagine as The floorboards creak Scream A burst of light Lick and leap This flame burns bright Waves smashing Waves roll in You chop them down Chop them down again Bones won’t bend Break in the end You chop them down Chop them down again Waves smashing Blue turns red When stars turn white You chop them down again Hold the candle light Gristle pulling tight House of lightning Blinding northern light Grip your subtle knife House of lightning You’re invincible Human cannonball House of lightning Freezing terror white Breathe in deep and fly House of lightning Stronger than you know Hurts to watch you grow House of lightning You’re invincible Human cannonball House of lightning
9.	Dogs Are Dreaming 04:50	lyrics	buy track
Dogs are dreaming Check for breathing Just a reminder He’ll be there to help He remembers The rest is true Leaves a reminder He’ll be there to help Weary and waiting Time sits still One more reminder He’ll be there to help And all the dogs are dreaming Takes the stairs slowly Flicks on the lights Rubbing the skin Where his hair used to shine Scribbles on the door frame Measure his life Seeing through the eyes He once recognised Dogs are dreaming
