1- PRIME

I made a start
Looked back just once.
Rebels of the frontier,
I can make it make sense.
Defenders of the real,
All I can see are dolphins.
I feel close to them
And no one else.
Road to nowhere,
Point of no return,
Stream of consciousness
He was just one.
Like a prime number,
He was devoid of plus.
He looked up waited, so frustrated.
I am vanishing into the trees
Defenders get onto your knees
Defenders get onto your knees

2- TRANSFORMER

I cannot be all these things to you. It's true.
My arms hang down, my legs don't fight,
My fingers believing for you and for me,
But no way I, I cannot be all these things to you.

The future is yours, so fill this part in.
The future is yours, so fill this part in.
The future is yours, so fill this part in.

I turn this moment into something new, It's true.
Are you ready, to feel alive?
The ancient echoes crawling out from my insides
No way I, I cannot be all these things to you.

Evolve or die complications.
Look at that figure.
It's bringing back a type of pull you can't make up.
Continue to raise it up.

I cannot be all these things to you. It's true.
My arms hang down, my legs don't fight.

3- SHEA STADIUM

Center/ we stop them
Center/we hold it
Center/we carry
Center/ we enter

Bigger than big, that's how you start it.
Bigger than big, that's how you start it.

Right into the night

Center/ we stop them
Center/we hold it
Center/we carry
Center/ we enter

Bigger than big, that's how you start it.
Bigger than big, that's how you start it.

You said to me, I'm empty-hearted
Bigger than big that's how you parted

Right into the night
Right into the night


4- RULER

I have not slept for nights.
I look back over my shoulder just once.
That is right, nothing can hold me down.
I'll drag your body into the wild west.
But we will get out alive, this much i know.

Grabbing victory out of the jaws of defeat.
Is there no way out of the mind?
There are things to find,
Chaos is a friend of mine.

Ruler of the...
Ruler of the...

It takes pressure to make a diamond out of coal.
Staring through clothes, I can see hearts where i go.
What i need now is a gut feeling to let me know.
What i need now is a gut feeling to let me know.

Ruler of the...
Ruler of the...

I have not slept for nights.
I look back over my shoulder just once,
That is right, nothing can hold me down.
I'll drag your body into the civil war.
But we will get out alive- this much I know.

Ruler of the...
Ruler of the...


5- THE CRIPPLED JAZZER

Down in the delta/ Caught in the valley
Drowned into sunlight/ Sunk into holy
Losing minutes/ Stuck in composing
Finding an angle/ Hell Bent on choosing
Warn all the dead/ Losing my vision/
Searching for tender/Grounding down slowly
Up in my head/ Wanting collision/
Rounding out sounds/ Nothing is growing

And the heat/ And the beat/ It was good/ It was good
And the beat/ yes the beat/ It went on as It should
And the heat/ and the beat/ It was good/ It was good
And the beat/ and the beat/ It goes on as It should


6- STEELY

Well take a look at her now.
Tossed out! She go what she was after.

(Hello big sky)
(nothing can stop it)

Well what if you had a moment of love
With the sounds of the future.
Can you imagine it up?
All i could do was just watch you walk away.

TELL ME YOUR NAME!
THIS IS NO ACCIDENT!
To be or not
To want something good
I'm like a raging animation
I wonder what it's like to be one.
I hoping it's true.
I'm hoping for you

These chances hold you back
It's the search that I crave.
I always hear that song at the right time
"There's a party in his mind and he hopes it never stops"


7- THE PACKAGE IS WRAPPED

I'm standing, standing, standing my ground.

I pull off a bow that is tied.
To a big box but I don't know what's inside.
There's something rattling around, I decide.
Well can I open it, my wide eyes imply?

There are dimensions I must enter to see what I am made of.
There are dimensions I must enter to see what I am made of.
The sea, these things I see, blow through.
What's right, this thing I fight, is good

You rearrange your mind, you rearrange your mind
You rearrange your mind, you rearrange your mind

I pull back a bow towards the crowds.
I cannot stop even if it is allowed.
I spell your name out in the sand are you proud?
The arrow arches and it comes pouring down

There are dimensions I must enter to see what I am made of.
There are dimensions I must enter to see what I am made of.
The sea, these things I see, blow through.
What's right, this thing I fight, is good

You rearrange your mind, you rearrange your mind

Is there no way out of my mind?
I see beautiful and shimmering signs.
The Celtic Knights are calling me from behind.

8- SIMON SAYS

I'm stuck in time-in a rut.
I cannot think.
I cant cant sleep, laugh, or breathe

I'm drawing lines in the sand
Night ranger to make amends
Bigger without boundaries.
Big enough to try.
Bigger than the whole world
Bravest in the whole world

I'm drawing lines in the sand
Night ranger to make amends

Here's what i want
Here's what i want
Someone to come at me
Someone to desire
Coming from a dream world
Coming from a dream world

I'm drawing lines in the sand
Night ranger to make amends


9- VAULT

Better take a girl dancing in the woods.
Said I'm your book, I am the pages.
But your book sits in a cage
While I see god, and god sees action.

Love, come with me.
Come with me.

Will this lonely life get any better?
At least this song will last forever.
Will this lonely life get any better?
Ive got holes to mend.

Better take a look, I'm dancing away.
Said i know you, You've got to chase it.
But that fool sits in a cage.
While I see god, and god sees action.

10- CLONE CYCLE

Holding back will be forgotten
Holding back will be forgotten

1 the point the center
2 the pair, mirror image symmetry
3 the vertices of the triangle. The primitive series. Unstable, open, the air.
4 the square, stability, the ground, the cycle ended
The more plastic the the expression
The more fundamental the symbol.

One is hard, to be alone.
One is hard, but one is bold.
Two is boring, it's hard to grow
Two is boring, it's hard to grow
Three the vertices of the triangle
Three the vertices of the triangle
Three the vertices of the triangle
Four, the square, stability, the ground.
The cycle ended.
Four, the square, stability, the ground.
The cycle ended.

If I'm in a trap, and the cycle's ending..
My time is up, the sun is coming
The hope's in a million trials
To count for something
To break the mold in cycle

So i rearrange
And I don't mind the change, I don't mind the change.

And from the bottom up you must draw,
Where blue is the distance
and no one can come along.

Holding back will be forgotten
Holding back will be forgotten


11- ROADS? WHERE WE'RE GOING WE DON'T NEED ANY ROADS

I present two sides.
My hopelessness and my faith.
My ego and my heart.
My feelings and my brain.

You've risen to that place you have
We're in the big tower, I'm holding your hand
And of all the things I want to be
I render illusion, illusion is calling
There's something here in this dark scene,
I cant find what's real but I know it's in me.
And with pressure for delivery,
I render illusion illusion is calling me up.

You said to create a place that feels like we are moving
But i live in this dream of maps and i keep on searching,looking
For the one that gets things grooving.
Stars can be really hard to draw,
If you don't know where they are,
That crazy star field can leave you too far.

You've given to that place you have.
You're running through hours, and hiding your hands.
And of all the things i want to see,
I render illusion, illusion is calling.
Well something's here on this dark street
I cant find what's real but i know it's a beat
And with pressure for delivery,
I render illusion, illusion is calling me up

You can go higher
And then you don't.
You can go higher
And then you don't.

I had a dream I crawled all around on the high road.


12- THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS

I've been bored like the bears, lounging at the zoo.
But this thing we've started, It is rare and new
I've seen the wooden bird, hang from your ceiling.
The scars on your body, leaving me wanting.
I have felt your fingers press against my throat.
I've held my hand inside, your jacket in the cold.
I done need some action too seriously

Alright here we go..

One, the reason's fun, I mean one the reason's fun.
I mean I ran the race and won
I've been up and I've been down, I mean operation found
I mean one the reason's fun, I'm gonna give you something fun.

Take a pyramid. And it's three sides.
We are standing there, On the bottom line
Where the sides they bind is the all seeing eye.
This is the great seal. The great seal divine.

The devil is in the details, if you are ready
The devil is in the details, if you are ready

Hey guys,
Just thought I'd post the lyrics for 'In Advance Of The Broken Arm' in case any of you are interested. xx Marn



1. Vibrational Match
I am a vibrational Match
In the water/ we line up
Off a beach
I am before a mirror
I am reaching in, reaching in
It's all flying through you

What is this darkness? We carry over?
Trust your perceptions. They arch.
Matter, Light, and Energy
Speed, Gold, and Spirit
I'm near it
I'm near it, (x2)

It's me/ Through you.
Each task/ Is Clear
Thumping / Tight bones
Come here/ No fear
In me/ Through You

What is true to you is real
And what is this jive you ask?
No judgments
We line up
We are connected
Connected/Connections/Connected/Connections

What is this darkness you speak of?
I am a Vibrational Match
Non-physical/ to physical
Here we go

What is this darkness? We carry over?
Trust your perceptions. They arch.
Matter, Light, and Energy
Speed, Gold, and Spirit
I'm near it
I'm near it, (Repeats)

2. Grapefruit
Keep on keep at it (repeat 3)

From the top (repeat 3)

Ahh Ahh

Sit in the snow and raise one hand
Extend until you touch a crowd.
Have your friends bring a symbol and then have your friends
Put out a flag, put it all inside a Christmas letter
Paste ornaments on the back
Send it out to the future

Stand in the Christmas Lights and dissolve (repeat 3)

Keep on keep at it (repeat 3)

Chinatown (repeat 3)

Ahh Ahh

Sit in the snow and raise one hand
Extend until you touch a crowd.
Have your friends bring a symbol and then have your friends
Put out a flag, put it all inside a Christmas letter
Paste ornaments on the back
Send it out to the future (repeat 4)

Ahh Ahh

3. Every Single Line Means Something

And then it comes to me that every single line means something
You see it's up to me to drag myself into the ocean
And then you come to me
You come to push down on our shoulders
You say that 1 is 3
And no one makes it up and over
And then you wonder why,
Why everything falls
And then you wonder why,
Why everything falls

And so you break your knees and still you crawl into the gutter
I know exactly why but nothing cries without an utter
And then you come to me
You come to push down on our shoulders
You say that 1 is 3
And no one makes it up and over
And then you wonder why,
Why everything falls
And then you wonder why,
Why everything falls

There you are
Here you lie Repeats
Is this your cry?

4. Precious Metal

Something like the
Son of Orion
Wraps me/ Above
Our own love song

No one be done. Come on be strong
No one be done. Come on be strong

Some things come from
The den of a lion
Wraps me / Above
Our own love song

No one be done
Come on be strong
No one be done
Come on be strong

5. Put All Your Eggs In One Basket And Then Watch That Basket

Time is all that keeps us blind
We dance around these sleepy rhymes
Yes I'll keep this stance
No I don't believe in chance. Ahh ha ha ha
I'm a contender. Make things better
I'm a contender. Never surrender (repeats 3)

Tick tock tick tock tick tock

Repeat from the top 3 times


6. Logical Volume

To be inside. To be hidden in Hades
Where the human hides in the animal's places
To feel alive when nothing ever changes
Where the human dies with the animals' faces

I work too hard
I've got this coming
My fingers burn.
The skin is peeling off
My voice is tired.
This is my only love.
I work too hard.
I've got this coming

This is my Thunderroad.
This is My Marquee Moon.
This is my Orthrelm in tune.
This is my love for you. (repeat 2)

I've been off the radar way too long.
Just watch me come on right along.
Just watch me come on right along.

7. Absorb Those Numbers

As your breath catches up from where you began
The memory's the sum of
Hey now

To see you at the end
My marathon man
Your breath catching fire
Some say the clock is the memory framed
Some know the memory by what it's named

As your breath catches up from where you began
The memory's the sum of
Hey now where does this begin and
Hey now where does it end?
Hey now where does this begin and
Hey now where does it end?

To see you at the end
My marathon man
Your breath catching fire
Catching fire
Catching fire

Hey now where does it end?

As your breath catches up from where you began
The memory's the sum of
Hey now where does this begin and
Hey now where does it end? (Repeats x 4)

To see you at the end
My marathon man
Your breath catching fire
Catching fire
Catching fire



8. This American Life

Energy is just enough
Energy is ripe enough.
I'll draw a pyramid.
Now I'm in the American Revolution.
I think you walk your feet so right
You walk in line, you march, you march, you march, you march
You walk in line, you walk in line, you march, you march, you march, you march
But I want to go back into the greek solution.
Mythology come take me away.
Mythology come take me away.

Repeat from top
Mythology come take me away.
Mythology come take me away.

9. Letters From Rimbaud

In greece as I've said
Verse and Lyre set the rhythms of action
And afterwards music and rhyme are games, pastime

Everything grows
Cause anything goes
We cannot know
Because we are inside it
Everything grows
Cause anything goes

I'm almost the island
I'm almost the island

In greece as I've said
Verse and Lyre set the rhythms of action
And afterwards music and rhyme are games, pastime
Keeping only quietness

We gather, we gather, we gather we gather

We gather up the fruit of the mind
Pen pushers and authors always full of numbers that crumble
The poet is truly the fire stealer
The poet is truly the fire stealer
The stealers, the stealers, the stealers, the stealers, the stealers,

Everything grows
Cause anything goes

What do we remind you of? And when you come around the show
You'll never make it up that fast
When no one else considers more
And I can tell you one more thing
You'll never come back here for more.
There's nothing but a broken stand
And lovers crouching on the floor (repeat 1)

Everything grows
Cause anything goes
We cannot know because we are inside it

I'm almost an island
But not quite yet
I'm almost an island
But not quite yet

10. The Weight Of A Rock

Some say the clock is the memory framed
Some know the memory by what it is named
He has closed his eyes
He has given up hope
He is bound to the sky
On a tethered rope
He is the weight of a rock
He is the weight of a rock
And he wonders why
The frame of the clock comes scratching by.

Some say the clock is the memory framed
Some know the memory by what it is named

I am the weight of the rock
I am the frame of the clock (repeat 3)
He is the weight of a rock
And he wonders why (repeat 1)

11. Plato's Fucked Up Cave

Get me out of this prison man,
Let me run run run run run

I am blind, but I can dream
I can I can (repeat 1)

Where's that diamond ceiling
That I keep getting near
Where's that other feeling
That we'll get when we're out of here

And this is what my dream looks like

repeat from top

I feel my trap on this
I feel my trap on this
On my way up, on my way out, see (repeat 4)

12. Healer

Yes. Yes. Yes
The answer's yes
If you let it/ that is when
The present does not have an end
Think like the light rail train
Draw from that side of the brain

Oh sweet lord, I'm all I got
I'm all I got. I'm all I got (repeat)

If you let it/ that is when
The present does not have an end
Think like the light rail train
Draw from that side of the brain (repeat)



13. Patterns Of A Diamond Ceiling

I am not looking to find a pot of gold
I will paint you a picture that's inside my head
First I must carve out a place
Picture yourself carving out a place in a room
Now look up there's the diamond ceiling
Look up now, this is what it sounds like

Around you is a solitude trilogy
And glass slippers are on your feet
When I say go
You'll here the solitude trilogy come in clearly
Go
Now look down the glass slippers are on your feet
This is what they sound like as they meet
Now walk in the self-eaters
Their sound is much clearer
Here
So you sit down and start to think of ideas of the north
But in walk the latecomers
They back shuffle forwards
Their sound is weird

I am not looking to find a pot of gold
The picture in my head is my reward
Go

Around you is a solitude trilogy
And glass slippers are on your feet
When I say go
You'll here the solitude trilogy come in clearly
Go
Now look down the glass slippers are on your feet
This is what they sound like as they meet
Now walk in the self-eaters
Their sound is much clearer
Here
So you sit down and start to think of ideas of the north
But in walk the latecomers
They back shuffle forwards
Their sound is weird

See how easy to dream a scheme of sounds in your head
We must dream on. We must dream on
You see the pieces fall away from the outer shell
We must dream on. We must dream on

So you see, I am not looking to find a pot of gold
The picture in my head is my reward
The picture in my head is my reward
Go
