Half Speed Panic Attack
02:49

Low blood sugar and pressure
I’m falling
The lights
I’m so heavy
My movement unsteady
I careen on a whim
The lights, so fluorescent
I’m feeling so heavy
The pressure
The pressure
Eyes are watching and narrowing slowly
My slow descent inwards is quickly unfolding
A trigger just pulled
A punch in the gut and I’m down
I am falling into an attack
Oh the sights are sublime
I’m passing high over hills and a lake in the sky
There’s a light I can see
There it is now
I’m passing over
No, I’m passing out!
Wait a minute
Don’t lose your shit
The moment is passing now...isn’t it?
Low light pressure
Fluorescently falling
Unsteady in movement
I’m sugar
I’m heavy
Obscene to observe with words so caressing
I’m feeling so happy
At present
At present
Eyes are narrowing slowly and wishing my quick descent downwards would end suddenly
Loss takes an age, an age to advance
And we’re down
We are failing to stop the attack
No, the sights are a lie
An attack
If I pull at the screen will it show me what’s real
There’s a light I can see
There it is now
I’m passing over
Yeah, I’m passing out
Wait a minute
Don’t lose your shit
The moment is over now...isn’t it?

CRT Image Burn
03:27
|

|
A pixelated portrait
A space invaded and you crying
Avoid
Avoid
Avoid the CRT
A stranger talking
Who the fuck is she?
Asphyxiated?
No
We couldn’t breathe
Suffocated and fearful of a screen
A void
A void is inside you
They want removal
We want to start anew
It’s pixelated
It’s pixelated
It’s pixelated
I can't forget the CRT Image Burn

Soft Dinner Music

Can I rearrange your memories?
Take a bit out
Wipe it clean
There’s no need for you to worry about it all
Forget what was done and what you saw
When it comes I will be there for you
There was so much we never knew
If I could give the soul a remedy to heal and repair, I’d feel at ease
But nothing helps when you’re so far in the black
You need to be here
I need you back
When you come I will be here for you
Can you rearrange my memories?
I’m feeling it now, the slow unease
When it comes will you be able for the pain?
I’m losing you now
I’m losing you
Until it comes we’ll be dead to light
It never was or ever right
I'm coming for you, I'm coming. For you, I'm coming

The Holy Trinity
02:41
|
|||
|
When I woke in the morning, with a look, a warning, I could tell you might be a disaster
I steered clear for a while but returned with a smile at the sound and the pull of your laughter
So, now I’m ashamed I saw past your pain and saw only my dour reflection
It was me all along
A sad boy with a song
Please forgive my imperfections
Just for a minute or two we were three

Loess
03:21
|
|||
|
The loss isn't real if you don't talk about it
You forget how to feel the hurt and the pain
So you stay in your head and you won't talk about how you’re emotionally dead
There’s no way to save a mind in exile
There's no real pain
What loss?
We're men
There's no real way to connect again
The loss isn’t real if you don’t talk about it
The loss isn’t real if you keep it inside

Seven minutes passed in a flash, as the sun dappled light down on to the dash
Glasses on your eyes to hide a sadness and anger in your heart
I couldn’t look into your eyes
It was a monumental change to our life
Hearts torn and plans to set aside
I knew then I’d be present in your future
Heaven is a lie so far gone
When you’re just about to die will you hear its song?
A backing track of laughs and sly derision sung by a choir of fools
Look me in the eye
I couldn’t look into your eyes as the sun dappled light on the dash
Those seven minutes passed in a flash
A heart got torn and sent into your future
Heaven is a lie so far gone
When you’re just about to die will you hear its song?
Heaven is a lie so far gone
When you’re just about to die will you hear its song?
Heaven...Die!
Seven minutes pass in a flash and the weight is all we feel, crushing us down
I couldn’t look into your eyes
The shame was too much for the sorrow inside
I couldn’t look into your eyes
My failure a presence we couldn’t avoid
I couldn’t look into your eyes
Our hearts were asunder
The greatest divide
I couldn’t look into your eyes
Heaven is a lie so far gone
When you’re just about to die will you hear its song?

Neutron Star Comedown

|
We were up
We were high in a cloudless amber sky
Deaf to death and dumb as kites
Singing soundless children’s rhymes

Ultrasound
02:27
|
|||
|
I was the boy who never grew up
Cast in the mold of his makers
Not enough water, not enough love
Broken at stem and withered above
They planted a seed and said their goodbyes
Now I'll never leave this city
As the distance increased the sadness arrived
A life for a life is a lie for a lie
I hear the ultrasound washing over me
I hear the ultrasound play a melody no one else can hear

A heavy yet melodic mix of electronics and alt-rock from Reformat doesn't skimp on the hooks or atmosphere.
