Domino 04:35
Turn my heart into stone, Wind me up and watch me go, Chain react the domino, Now we're standing toe to toe, And I know something's got to give, Broken glass it shatters me, Load up the fallen ones, Snake eyes down the horror show, Ha ha, Something you oughta know, I'm falling like a domino, Am I meant to be alone? Wind me up and watch me go, Chain react the domino, Now we're standing toe to toe, And I know something's got to give, Broken mirrors haunting me, Load up the chosen ones, Snake eyes down the horror show, Ha ha, Something you oughta know, I'm falling like a domino.

So High 02:39
You got this, It's fine, Put a little feeling back inside, Put a little pleasure in my mind, Girl you got me, So high, You got this, It's fine, Put a little feeling back inside, Put the pleasure in my mind, Girl, You got me so high, Oh, Out of love, Out of luck, Got no one, It's you, And only you, I'm flying high, I'm running free, Break through, The war machine, The killing fields, No good to me, Caught up in the fire fight, The firing line, In the dead of night, You got this, It's fine, Put a little feeling back inside, Put the pleasure in my mind, Girl, You got me so high, Oh, Out of love, Out of luck, Got no one, It's you, And only you, I'm flying high, I'm running free, Break through, The war machine, The killing fields, No good to me, Caught up in the fire fight, The firing line, In the dead of night, You got this, It's fine, Put a little feeling back inside, You got me, So high,
Put a little pleasure in my mind, X2

Go It Alone 05:16
Wait a minute, Stop and pause for thought, It's just a, Bad decision, Lost all track of time, But I want you to know, That I'm fine, Take a look inside, All I wanted was a little peace and quiet, And empty out my mind, Wanna go it alone, Wait a second, All those late night talks, And I, Thought you meant it, Every single word,
Now I'm cut up and hurt, Again, And I'm just sick and tired, All I wanted was to bring us back to life, Ever felt alone and you dont know why? Suck it up and breathe cause the man don't cry, Ever wanna break all the binds that tie? Suck it up and breathe cause the man don't cry, Ever see the world through a blind mans eye? Suck it up and breathe cause the man don't cry, Ever get lost in the midnight sky?

Sugar Sweet 04:22
Look out below, I'm riding on lightning, High, I'm everything that's wrong, With the lines, That we've drawn, So chalk em up sugar sweet, Cause you're my girl, I can feel you watching over me, No strings baby, All it's meant to be, I hear tears in your cup of tea, Hush up honey, Of course you fell for me, Don't try calling, Chasing after me, One night baby, All it's meant to be, I'm so sorry that you disagree, Hope rising up, Coming round, Leave me and walk away, And faith falling down, Losing touch, But you're still next to me, Hook, Line, You fell, Knees are trembling now, I'm everything thats right, With your life, So tonight, Just chalk em up sugar sweet, Cause you're my world, I can feel you watching over me, No strings baby, All it's meant to be, I hear tears in your cup of tea, Hush up honey, Of course you fell for me, Don't try calling, Chasing after me, One night baby, All it's meant to be, I'm so sorry that you disagree, Hope rising up, Coming round, Leave me and walk away, And faith falling down, Losing touch, But you're still next to me, Hope rising up, Coming round, Leave me and walk away, And faith falling down, Losing touch, I can feel you watching over me, No strings baby, All it's meant to be, I hear tears in your cup of tea, Hush up honey, Of course you fell for me, Don't try calling, Chasing after me, One night baby, All it's meant to be, I'm so sorry that you disagree, When our eyes they looked across the room, I staggered in a drunken haze, Out into the street and then I held you in the rain, And took away the pain, X2

I'm looking back, On a road that I have travelled, A damned old weathered beaten track, And a constant uphill battle, An evil mind, Hallucinations, Oasis in the sands, A never ending timeless track, I'm stuck in a rut, You've gone full circle, And nobody undertands, Said nobody understands, My mind is a weapon, And it's built to self destruct, My mind is a weapon, And it's pushing all my buttons man, I am my own worst enemy x6 I fear attack, From the demons that follow, Just waiting for me to turn my back, And a fever dream so real, The life trials and tribulations, Of a lonely troubled soul, When everything was once so perfect, You're lost not found, Disaster diagnosed, My mind is a weapon, And it's built to self destruct, My mind is a weapon, And it's pushing all my buttons man, I am my own worst enemy x6 We go again x15

Slow down son, Walk don't run, You'll hurt yourself, And that's no fun, Come and Play, And play with us, Up on the second floor, We got something for you, Right here, Upstairs, You just gotta, Unlock the door, And see, What lies, Inside, Feed the flames, It's getting cold, You've got something special about you, You keep shining, Drawing me back to, Rooms with views, Right on the water, All work no play, All work no play, Can't live with, Or without, The words of wisdom, Inside a, Cold wet glass, That hits you harder than, The last piece, Of bad news, We got something for you, Right here, Upstairs, You just gotta, Unlock the door, And see, What lies, Inside, Feed the flames, It's getting cold, You've got something special about you, You keep shining, Drawing me back to, Rooms with views, Right on the water, All work no play, All work no play, You've got something special about you, You keep shining, Drawing me back to, Rooms with views, Right on the water, All work no play, All work no play, X2

Houston 04:16
Houston, We got a problem, We cut our ties to tomorrow, So buckle up and float away, No one hears you scream in space anyway, And I spiral, Down and down, Mind is racing, Round and round, Wondering, When are we, When are we gonna hit the ground, I said Houston, We got a problem, I looked at the sun and I went blind, No leap for man, We failed mankind, And I spiral, Down and down, Mind is racing, Round and round, We crash, And Burn, And now we return, I burn when I hit the ground, And no ones gonna save me now, X2 Houston, We got a problem, The world below keeps spinning round, Somewhere, We lost our way, And one day I'll make you proud, And I spiral, Down and down, Mind is racing, Round and round, We crash, And Burn, And now we return, I burn when I hit the ground, And no ones gonna save me now, X2

Don't fear, The rapture, Ride it float away, You're locked inside, Take your sadness, And pack it, Tomorrow's a new day, You're lost then found, And am I waiting, For something, That wont come? Or will the nightmares, Take me, Back home, And I've been down, Lately, Save me, From myself, The time has come, To see the warning signs, Lighting up my mind, I'm falling down, The world keeps turning round, So long, Farewell, The pennies on my eyes, To pay my ride, Don't fear, Don't fear the rapture, Don't fear, Don't fear, Disaster, What will be will be, So enjoy, The ride, Breathe, The morning, Take the dawn in, The sunlight breaks the day, The time has come, To see the warning signs, Lighting up my mind, I'm falling down, The world keeps turning round, So long, Farewell, The pennies on my eyes, To pay my ride, Don't fear, Don't fear the rapture, Don't fear, And when you're done, There's nowhere left to run, I'm broken inside, You've run out of places to hide, But I try, And I try, Jump start, My dead heart, Make it beat again, And fill me with life, Don't fear the rapture, This is my final call, And I've been Ignored, Don't fear, Don't fear the rapture,

Warpaint 03:51
Here he comes in his dark sunglasses, Son of a gun, You know no one passes, No, So, You better turn the other way, People run away in their masses, Making tracks, You know no one’s asking, Why, So, I'll see you on the other side, You know the one, The time has come, And I, Left on my own, Leave right away, Don't break the day, Just go, He's been down, And we, Will never understand, The way he feels, So take this open hand, This time, It's real, The day is done, The setting sun, And I, Turn into bone, Looking over, My shoulder, And he's, Come back for more, I'm older, I know to, Decide, What’s wrong or right, You know the one, The time has come, To go, He's been down, And we, Will never understand, The way he feels, So take this open hand, This time, It's real, But not what we had planned, It's not the end, Will you fight for what is right? And put the warpaint on your eyes, The mirror it never lies, Put the warpaint on your eyes, (repeat to fade)

I saw a battle, Between all, Good and evil, In this world, And I can't even, Comprehend, What they're fighting for, The beginning, Of the end, As we know it, Say your prayers, And ask for brighter days, Before we've come undone, Let's go from day one, It's been coming for a while, I gotta know the truth, The struggle is real, How the mighty have fell, Losing the fight, But we meet head on tonight, I saw a battle, Between all, Good and evil, In this world, And I can't even, Comprehend, What they're fighting for, The beginning, Of the end, As we know it, Say your prayers, And ask for brighter days, Before we've come undone, When you were young, Did you see anything like you do now? And god only knows, That someone, Somewhere, Will somehow, Light up the earth, Take me away, Lead astray, And they will say, I gotta do whats right for me, Right for me, Right for me, Light up the earth, Take me away, Lead astray, And they will say, I gotta do whats right for me, Right for me, Right for me, From the bottom of my heart, We restart, We try again, We try again, We make amends, Till it's over, Till the end.

about

"Titled, “Lessons In Forgetting Everything” or “L.I.F.E”, depending on which way you want to look at it, it’s a tale of maturity, mental anguish and an ever growing need to break the mould and get away. Life is not an exact Psyence, but we think our second album comes close to representing who we are and what has happened in our lives in the last couple of years"
