If you need this to remember how lucky you are
Then I’m happy to be sending you
All the love that I have, straight from the back of my hand
I’m the man, don’t forget, show me fear and respect
And we’ll all die young and it won’t be long
Cos something’s wrong, yeah we’ll all die young
Just sat there staring you make no sound
I have a secret, I know you’re watching this
But you can’t see what’s right there in front of you
Screaming black and blue

One Out One In

Eyes shut, you keep on counting
Down days but they keep coming
I just don’t get it, like lipstick on relics
I just don’t get it, like lipstick on relics
Down, hold me down with your hand over my mouth,
Yeah my mouth, ‘til it’s over
One out one in, start again
Quicksand with eastern promise
Both hands, your throat’s a chalice
I taste metallic, like batteries electric
I taste metallic, like batteries electric
Down, hold me down with your hand over my mouth,
Yeah my mouth, ‘til it’s over
Don’t it seem strange that your body will bend in this way?
You should stop complaining, it’s just a little fun
I don’t see the problem if it’s not hurting anyone
Down, hold me down with your hand over my mouth,
Yeah my mouth, ‘til it’s over
Don’t it seem strange that your body will bend in this way
Yeah, like you want it too, now just what will you do, now it’s the end?
One out one… again
Start again.
End.

In Camera

Bone dry, these eyes won’t stir
Despite your insights, we’ll burn
There’s no way of knowing who’s first
There’s no way to know if it hurts
You remember it now, but by the end it’ll seem
That everything that went between got left behind in a dream
I begged her to hold to the ledge
In camera, In camera, it’s so far away
In camera, In camera, it’s so far
In camera, In camera, it’s so far from here
In camera, In camera, it’s so far
I bled from the hole in my head
So like awake and let it all just drift away
The TV’s on and this show will run and run
A little further away and the faces start to fade
It goes on and on until you realize…
Now it’s all gone
In camera, In camera, it’s so far away
In camera, In camera, it’s so far
In camera, In camera, it’s so far from here
In camera, In camera, it’s so far
We’ll all drop dead from the holes in our heads
One by one

In The Forest

Don’t go wandering down there ‘cos there’s nothing there
Roads don’t lead out of here cos there’s nothing out there for you
Hiding in the forest with the monsters
Caught up with the magic in the air
It catches you out and wears you down
Here in the trees, try not to be seen and don’t make a sound
Falling like an airplane in a nightmare
Drowning in a sea that isn’t there
It catches you out and wears you down
Here in the trees, try not to be seen and don’t make a sound
Don’t go wandering down there ‘cos there’s nothing there
Roads don’t lead out of here cos there’s nothing out there for you
We live in here, don’t go out there
All you need’s here, why go elsewhere?

Goated

Goated told me many things, told me I’d be a god
But he left out the screaming, how it never stops
I crept out to the edge
Call my mother and tell her I’m not here
I’m down in the bottom of this well
Man I wish it would just stop
It’s just voodoo with crosses
Voodoo with crosses
Goated took me home and fucked my human form

16 is my name, my body’s a frame
A little on the skinny side but always in good shape
So how’s about that drink and then I’ll tell you what I’ve got to say
It’s almost certainly what you think but I’m a gonna tell you anyway
It’s not a trick, it’s not a game, but it’s funny, a real scream,
Try and stop me if you’ve heard this one before
So we can quit it and get down on the floor
Now it’s better for you to know, for you to understand,
I guarantee you this I’m not who you think I am
Please understand that I’m not who you think I am
Give ‘em just enough rope, a little more, a little more
(If someone’s throwing a party I’m right on time, if there’s a chance of a drink I’m first in line)
16 is my name, my body’s a frame

It’s almost certainly what you think but I’m a gonna tell you anyway
Please understand that I’m not who you think I am
When there’s no more heaven we’ll give them hell
And just enough rope so they don’t tell
Give ‘em just enough rope, a little more, a little more

Murder On The Beach

Sink or swim,
Yeah, you knew I’d drown but you still let me go out in the water
Guess you thought you’d save me if you changed your mind
But it’s too late now, yeah I’m long gone and on the other side of the water
And you’re left on your own ‘cept for the voice inside
It says at high tide, waves will come and let you know that I will never let you go
Sun comes up you’re still waiting, sun goes down you’re still waiting
Tide comes in you’re still waiting, tide goes out you’re still waiting
You won’t win this game we’re playing ‘cos I’ve got all the time in the world
Just know that I’ll be waiting
At high tide, waves will come and let you know that I will never let you go
It’s times like this that you start to question why
We’re down here whilst the birds stay in the sky
I tried to reach you to say that it’s okay
But it’s too late and all the birds have flown away
At high tide, waves will come and let you know that I will never let you go

There’s something waiting, uncertain, a colour shy of blue
A bitter sense of persuasion that’s got a hold on you
The current theme of our contention is splitting into two
We’ll take one each and, god willing, we’ll settle this up soon
You know my secret, you own me, so tell me what to do
Nobody needs to know what goes on when we’re inside that room
Now surely I’ve met Mr Selfish and his little daughter cruel
I love my wife and my family, yeah I’m a simple man
And now the monster has awoken I’m doing what I can
But when I think about what must be done I know that in my heart
I’ll never be the man I want to and it’s tearing me apart

When this was before, back before it all
Somebody told me
That sometimes there’s a door
Who knows where it goes? Walk right on through it
Go through it, go through
I slipped and fell from the sun
And swam down through the ocean
I climbed down into the earth
All I see is blue, don’t you see it too? It’s so amazing
Though we are apart, I know you’ll protect my heart
Call it a feeling
I slipped and fell from the sun
And swam down through the ocean
I climbed down into the earth
And waited there for you

Orange Mathematics
by Frontierer

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant.
