Aim High 03:31
Love more Love deep Love the fight For the peace Find a piece of the place That you trust This city has you by the heart Lève les yeux, On est tous amis ici, On veut tous voir les étoiles Aim high Brush the rust off Take a leap And build a staircase To the sky You can do it If you work with the wind Cut the cord, refuse to die You can do it You can do it You can do it You just gotta aim high Like this Like that Like for like For a change Find that change in the streets That you love This city sings inside your blood Nous brillons tous ici, Nous voulons lever Les yeux et voir nos amis Aim high Brush the rust off Take a leap And build a staircase To the sky You can do it If you work with the wind Cut the cord, refuse to die You can do it You can do it You can do it You just gotta aim high What doesn’t bend breaks What doesn’t bend breaks What doesn’t bend breaks What doesn’t bend breaks We’re all gears in the same machine Just trying to figure out what it all means If we just sit here eating cake We’ll never see the path that the boomerang takes Aim high Brush the rust off Take a leap And build a staircase To the sky You can do it If you work with the wind Cut the cord, refuse to die You can do it You can do it You can do it You just gotta aim high Brush the rust off Take a leap And build a staircase To the sky You can do it If you work with the wind Cut the cord, refuse to die You can do it You can do it You can do it You just gotta aim high

The ink runs through my veins like blood The positive and negative react You come alive with the flood I pull everything out of you You pull everything out of me I cut away and you break apart I push through and you power up You're a sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Shining light on my shadow Don't stop sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Trace my edges with your fingers Til I drop The noise fills up my brain it glows The black and white keys start to jumble up I find your form You are enclosed I pull everything out of you You pull everything out of me Colours clash and I have my doubts But I push the lever and your joy rings out You're a sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Bringing life to the stories in my dreams sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Push my soul through the screen Until I scream The ink runs through your veins it glows The positive and negative react I find your form You are enclosed I pull everything out of you You pull everything out of me Colours mix and you break apart I push through and your joy rings out You're a sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Shining light on my shadow Don't stop sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Trace my edges with your fingers Til I drop sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Bringing life to the stories in my dreams sh sh sh sh sh sh sh sh Shape Shifter Push my soul through the screen Until I scream ...

Gold 02:34
We sail away from War and famine To a land of riches Where the sun shines bright We dig a little deeper In the depths of Eureka Every man for himself Searching day and night And I think I’ve found Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold I think I’ve found Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold We plant the gardens The soil is rich here In a land where the leaders say “Pretend you’re white” We make the dumplings Stop off at the chipper There is no steamer here So the siu mai are deep fried And I think I’ve found Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold I think I’ve found Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold “Two dimmies with soy sauce please” We thought we were ordering exotic Chinese But the golden nuggets came from our own land Feeding miners seeking fortunes As they sifted and they panned They sailed away from War and famine To a land of riches Where the sun shines bright I dug a little deeper In the depths of the freezer Found a Welcome Stranger And a story to set right And I think I’ve found Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold I think I’ve found Gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold, gold

Mimeograph 03:00
Fill in the blanks so the sentences Start to make sense They tell a tale that’s Already been told Repeatedly You are a ditto machine A lilac ghost Dissolving those dreams Your scent hangs on the air Bittersweet for years Connect the dots maybe you’ll see The bigger picture Starting to emerge The whole thing built upon What happened earlier I am a mimeograph A darker shade Moving through masks Repeating my mistakes Until the ink runs clear Twin scenes drawn together But they’re not the same Try to find the words Before it is too late One day all that Will be left are Overlapping rounded shapes We were a moment undone Two phantom notes Exposed to the sun Our story softly fades As each line disappears

All day Every day I’m getting dragged down dragged down Dragged down All day ’Til you come around come around Then you lift me up So fast it’s a little insane So fast that it bubbles my brain So fast that gas forms in my veins You give me the bends You give me the bends You lift me so high that I might actually die Yeah, you give me the bends You give me the bends Yeah, you give me the bends Don’t wanna complain ‘cause it’s such good pain Yeah, you give me the bends I sink down Way down To the darkness darkness Way down I stay down Where the sharks is sharks *are* Then you lift me up So fast I’m startled from the start So fast it fizzies up my heart So fast my heart might burst apart You give me the bends You give me the bends You lift me so high That I might actually die You give me the bends You give me the bends You give me the bends Don’t wanna complain ‘cause it’s such good pain Yeah, you give me the bends

Goodbye Baby 02:43
this is not a love song i’ve given that away instead I'm trying to understand the hurt behind the way I feel it's so bad sick of all the swan songs they're leading me astray my silver throat's a fucking joke a voice with nothing left you say “goodbye” sunlight calling through the window but we won't get up because we've dropped any hope for repair lost time falling ever over we're a hopeless cause shut the open door the rope's tied short shorter than the fall holding on to one long minute that's replayed as life unfolds before our eyes collapsing like a crashing wave baby
