1.	Still a Child 02:43	lyrics	buy track
Just one more hour then I swear I am turning it off I can’t remember when I started, and I’m scared of the thought The sun has gone down I’m all alone now It’s time to face the truth Maybe I’m still a child Maybe I’m still a child Maybe I’m afraid of adults and I cloak it in commitment and denial Maybe I’m a child Another minute and I’m looking at an empty box I’ll make exceptions for events, but tell me, when do they stop? I’m reaching new highs But I’m the same guy I just have more to lose Maybe I’m still a child Maybe I’m still a child Maybe I’m afraid of adults and I cloak it in commitment and denial Maybe I’m a child Maybe I’m still a child Maybe I’m still a child Maybe I’m afraid of adults, obligation, and the bond of expectation All the changes, innovations, and the lasting transformations Keep your nuance in proportion, I would rather have distortion Maybe I’m a child
2.	Signalling 03:18	lyrics	buy track
You are sitting on your throne all alone In the hall of mirrors you call home You could be savior of the world if you weren’t Kept against your will inside your dome And all the people come to see how righteous you can be The crowd will cheer and you will be beam Call out the misery, berate iniquity If you weren’t here, where would we be? And when the feeling of reward strikes a chord (Who could blame you) You’ll go back for more But when your kingdom starts to wake there’s more at stake Before you know it, you forgot to mourn And now the people that you need, they already agree It’s nothing new, nothing to see Turn it all around and shove compassion down To stay on top is not easy Why don’t you live what you speak? Why don’t you live what you speak? Why don’t you live what you speak? Why don’t you live what you speak? Why don’t you live what you speak? Why don’t you live what you speak? Why don’t you live what you speak?
3.	Flow 03:33	lyrics	buy track
Lose your mind Set it aside, oh, you’ll be alright Close your eyes Loosen your grip and hold on tight I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge Gotta follow what I know Flow Visions in the night Captivated by the light I’m surrounded by the glow Flow Leave your heart behind Give it a break Oh, you’ll be just fine Cross the line There’s nothing to fear Just enjoy the ride I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge Gotta follow what I know Flow Visions in the night Captivated by the light I’m surrounded by the glow Flow Into the moment don’t be afraid to go I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge You can call it flow Flow Don’t want to envy Don’t want to be empty No Don’t want to envy Don’t want to be empty No Don’t want to envy Don’t want to be empty I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge Gotta follow what I know Flow I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge Gotta follow what I know Flow Visions in the night Captivated by the light I’m surrounded by the glow Flow Into the moment don’t be afraid to go I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge You can call it flow Flow I’m swimming in my head I’ve been dreaming on the edge Gotta follow what I know Flow Visions in the night Captivated by the light I’m surrounded by the glow Flow
