francesca I have been waiting for this for MONTHS and I cannot put into words how gosh-darn excited I am to finally be able to listen to this 24/7. My ears have never felt so happy. 100/10. Actually, forget the 'out of ten' part - these lads broke the scale. This is too awesome. Favorite track: Animal Friends.

In Tow 05:03
Who's ever heard of a five year plan? Why can't anyone understand the illusion of it? Fate dictates what I feel, so I close my eyes and Take my hands off the wheel, and it greets me like a Dream, coming undone at the Seams, has never been so clean And I just don't know who to blame When everything changes but stays the same Just can't seem to see past tomorrow Oh well, whatever, guess I'm in tow Despite efforts that are my best I'm still assured that my life is a mess I've spent it working for the payroll, like I was taught But now I'm nothing but wasted potential And maybe it's too late I'm sewn into my fate Can't wait to fade away Can't wait to fade away And I just don't know who to blame When everything changes but stays the same Just can't seem to see past tomorrow Oh well, whatever, guess I'm in tow And I just don't know who to blame When everything changes but stays the same Just can't seem to see past tomorrow Oh well, whatever, guess I'm in tow

I Make Noise 03:08
I can't tell if it changes day to day The noise, the noise, a harsh ratio to what you say They say my words are less important than the things I do So I drown them out with the things in my life that are slightly more important than you So I Am shutting up And stepping down I'm bowing out Chuck my thoughts out a window Cuz it's what I say that causes a fuss Cuz we make noise, you make noise back at us Kill the competition this is Not about coming first, I know you disagree Cuz I make noise, you make noise back at me Metanyms hole up in my eyes so I can't see Oh, everybody else has someone else they wanna be They're far too gone, they're far too old to change So there is nothing else I wanna say So I Am shutting out My endless doubts Today Chuck my thoughts out a window Cuz it's what I say that causes a fuss Cuz we make noise, you make noise back at us Kill the competition this is Not about coming first, I know you disagree Cuz I make noise, you make noise back at me Every day you pine for glory Fighting over categories You write death threats, I write stories All these kids are too damn noisy Chuck my thoughts out a window Cuz it's what I say that causes a fuss Cuz we make noise, you make noise back at us Kill the competition this is Not about coming first, I know you disagree Cuz I make noise, you make noise back at me

Rescue Me 03:36
Rescue me My brain's come undone I am full of the joys of spring, my mind is in full swing Are we having fun? Comfort me Cuz I don't know where I'm going Which way the hurricane's blowing And you are the lifeblood of the party I can't help but get away, get away From where the story ends So get away with me my friend Don't test me I've been tested all my life and I am sick of it And I can't breath Through the mask which to my face is fit Oh, one more test, oh I'll quit! Sell to me Your finest clothes of gold silk and jewels See if I still play a fool when you sell to me A future made of doom, death, war and rising seas Oh please! You Can't sell me A world with despair in its heart And me I won't accept it When you try to tear people apart So won't you rescue me? Oh won't you rescue me?

Rain 04:38
There's only so much sentiment I can etch in the back of a raindrop But at least I've found my breath before it's gone Perhaps it'll hit the floor before I can dot all my initials But hey, I guess that's half the fun So just leave me be To drown in my melancholy I can't explain quite why I want to stay I know I might be Satisfying the clichés When I sit and listen to the rain Once I find my words Do I shoot them to the atmosphere Blasted through some cheap old megaphone? I just want this to mean something To anybody out there In the hopes they'll figure out they're not alone So just leave me be To drown in my melancholy I can't explain quite why I want to stay I know I might be Satisfying the clichés When I sit and listen to the rain Sticks and stones may break my bones And words will never harm me But I'm one breath away From being strangled by my last soliloquy So just leave me be To drown in my melancholy I can't explain quite why I want to stay I know I might be Satisfying the clichés When I sit and listen to the rain

Bright white antlers adorn your head Wingspan, feathers and plumage red Fish on land and beast at home So familiar yet so unknown Hey! I didn't see that coming It knocked me off my feet Yeah, that was cheating 100% Don't leave me this way Oh, touch me, I'm just an animal With my animal friends Symbols, shapes and what they mean Wearing my heart on my screen Show me my reflections Encrypted in the sky Change the shapes I live in Starting with my eyes Help me face my demons Help me to be me Painting my own picture So I feel like I'm free! Hey I didn't see that coming Time just slips away All of a sudden my weekend is spent What can I say? Oh, touch me I'm just an animal With my animal friends Hey! I didn't see that coming It knocked me off my feet Yeah, that was cheating 100% Don't leave me this way Oh, touch me, I'm just an animal With my animal friends
