Mr. Orbit 04:45
You touch down on my land Get your feet on the ground Push that flag into the sand There's no vacancy here In my house In my darker days I'd let you in But my mornings aren't as dim Time is running out Here to take what you found Your selfish misstep My ozone slowly turns And if you stay too long you'll get burned Step inside of Mr. Orbit It starts to circle when you force it And all my free time is undeserved and untrue Still I'm in service to you Empty canteen at your side But the lake bed is dry In my darker days I'd let you in But my rooms are filled with sin Step inside of Mr. Orbit It starts to circle when you force it And all my free time is undeserved and untrue Still I'm in service to you Mr. Orbit Mr. Orbit

Get Ready 03:56
Take the time shake the dirt from your eyes And you’ll find that your limit’s the sky All the things you might think you want you can get um If they give you a shot and you’re ready And the world has no plans for you Time can change on a whim Better look past what you choose Get ready and learn to swim Ahhh Ooo, ahhh Lose sense of your space and time And you’re driftin’ with no direction to climb And you’re ready There’s no end marked by light It’ll shine through at different parts of your life And the world has no plans for you Time can change on a whim Better look past what you choose Get ready and learn to swim Get ready and learn to swim Get ready and learn to swim The excuse of youth is running on fumes and aerosol All our lives are based on things we can’t conceptualize The truth is maybe I just misunderstood The breeze it brings the answers into me like scattered leaves Are you ready I’m never ready Ahhhhhhhh

The Debt 02:32
I know a place down the way with honey mead and pretty dancers and on a silver platter all your needs can be answered no need to shy away what goes on down the hall makes me want to surrender my insecure days and there’s something I just don’t know about the place but I need one more taste they say my money’s no good to them, but I fear my soul is the debt there on the edge of town that girl lays me down I’ts in the way they say I’ll be gone tried to, but never had to pay there’s something I just don’t know about the girl and I’ve been here way to long they say my money’s no good to them but I feel my soul’s in debt

That Man 05:29
Today I’ll try to make the change (don’t think you’re ever gonna learn you’ll always be the same) I’m so.. alone, alone there’s things that I should rearrange (you’ll never clean the mess you made you’re lazy and afraid) I’m so alone, alone I start to think unmentioned things bring a fresh bottle of pity to drink I don’t know how I came to trust the man it’s got me wondering is it worth following I tried to shake him, but I’ll never break him all my life I live in shame I took it easy I always let him defeat me old enemy (you’ll always be the same) Am I Alone, Alone? you can climb out your hole you just gonna fall back down again. I start to think unmentioned things drink a fresh bottle of pity with me I don’t know how I came to trust the man it’s got me wondering is it worth following I tried to shake him, but I’ll never break him he don’t want to die today I must understand how to kill that man tells me that it’s too late that I missed my chance for something great then the doubt sets in I start over again Stay where you’ve been you can’t best that man get used to the bed you made you missed your chance say what you will , that man he comes back again he comes back again

The planet Earth’s final days mistakes were made with dark matter we played and the outcome can’t be changed won’t be changed so long millennia the god of fire returns us to star dust interstellar children seek the warmth of another sun looking back on their mother crumbling into the void and this won’t be the last time our home will be destroyed what will be the chance of new hope for human kind there will be an answer there will be an answer Generations seek oasis to find Home home so long millennia it’s no longer safe in the universe embrace holes ripped by time in the curvature of space floating on the ashes we drift into the void and this could be the last time our home will be destroyed what will be the chance of new hope for all of life there will be an answer there will be an answer
