Red Herring 08:32
Goin’ through the motions of life Buy a car, buy a house, then ya get a wife To make that dough, you gotta get a job Better work your way up till your at the top Stock options, 401K Everything you earn you gotta put away Unquestioning day to day How’d we get so lost along the way? Driftin’ out and away Sluggin’ by we don’t ask why Losin’ touch with each passin day We can fight so why do we fly To break free of this path we’re on Means abandoning the overmind Standin’ up to tell them they’re wrong Takin’ control these are our lives Structures too strong guide the way We have an important role to play Feeding these corporate machines And no one takes a minute to ask what it all means Cause when we say we’re wonderin’ why They retort “it’s what you need to get by” So all’s we can do is try All’s we can try is to live a lie

Shower Songs 05:36
I don't need no fame and fortune I don't need no rock and roll I just need to sing my song till The rains come down, it's gonna save my soul Sing your song like there’s no one listening Sing your song like there’s no one there Sing your song like there’s no one listening Cause your song might never be heard again Drift away Do they just drift away Fade away Do they all fade away If your song’s only a jingle If your song's just in your head Sing your song like no one’s listening And sing it loud until you’re dead

Moon eyes chillin’ at the park or a beach or at the show Can't tell if it's the sun or the stars that spin around your mind just goin' with the flow It's alright, it's ok, cause you got your friends and you know that The only thing that matters is right here, right now Just then, synapses snap back like your hat jack, fat strands of time dilating in your mind, expanding until it's cracked open and fried Hold up what’s that feeling, see a hole open up in the ceiling when someone asks: "What time is it?" Time freeze? Stuck in a minute where you don't wanna be Time freeze? Are we starting night or waking up? Time freeze? Endless seconds just floating on the breeze Time freeze? Time freeze? Stuck in a minute where you don't wanna be Time freeze? Are we starting night or waking up? Time freeze? Close your eyes take a journey to that That place in time That place in your mind Where insanity thrives Moon eyes chillin at the park or a beach or at the show Can't tell if it's the sun or the stars that spin around your mind just goin' with the flow It's alright... cause you got your friends and you know that The only thing that matters is right here, right now Hold up, heard this all before, must be the curse of 12:34 Looks like I'm stuck in time, but wait, it could be all in my mind It’s alright, it’s ok, close your eyes and drift away till Someone asks: "What time is it?"

Driftin' out and away Sluggin' by we don’t ask why Losin' touch with each passin' day We can fight so why do we fly To break free of this path we’re on Means abandoning the overmind Standin' up to tell them they’re wrong Taking control these are our lives
