jester6 The reason I love this album is because you can tell it was made with as much love as humanly possible, and on a side note i feel like distraction was the perfect song to start this album off with.

-=TF=- This album is full of reverb soaked guitar, creative, driving drum beats, and solid catchy bass lines. The vocals and lyrics are revealing, unassuming, and not the least bit pretentious. You can dance to it, or make love, or both at the same time. So many styles come together like magic. It's a great album that everyone should hear. Favorite track: Distraction.

Distraction 03:03
I'm not persuaded by diatribe I've got to do more than hear it to know it's right I have forgiven my future self For having so much anger for who I am now Walk through your walls I think that it's believable enough Who's right? Who's wrong? I think it's all forgivable enough Are you strong enough to know you're strong enough to believe it? You and I will go on forever You and I will grow old together You and I will go on forever Age is something I laugh at when I say outloud It's a selfish answer to say "I'm just alright" When we all know very well that no one's doing fine Friction creates energy that you can see and touch So why work towards hope? You and I were not fed it well enough I just wanna push it back into the light where you see it? All of the ways it's changed I went from a man back to a little boy I'm surely dreading my own birth Crawl into the womb and not the hearse

Listening's the hardest part Every single word is rarely heard Because we know that listening's the hardest part I hear it in the morning I hear it when the sun goes down It's just the in between that seems to be alluding me I know just what I see but the belief is hard for me NO! It's the other way around and what I see Is simply what I believe The one thing that's clear to me is listening's the hardest part I grew up in sunshine I grew up in rain What could be left for me to gain?

Ish Kabibble 03:22
We were walking through the harbor You kept looking at the water "We're the ones who make it harder acting like children to father" There's no one else that you'll ever be And if you can hang with that you'll do fine I am a part of the storm I am a part of the storm cloud I'm not the cause of the storm I'm not the start of the storm cloud I don't see it as a language I just want to see it as an "a"

Against 03:26
You've got your long dark passageways I've got my trap doors And one another on the floor It takes a couple days to blink all my sleep away I'll be coming to your door Never the two shall meet or follow: I'm alone I've got your hammer and your soul Who could play the role of the preoccupied man and I'll be all of the things he dreams about. I've got my eye on everything at once I like the be the one who holds on Giving up should not be so hard But I swear when I understand God it will be easier for me to quit this job and your queasiness will be uninvolved and my guilt will quell. And this damned hotel is making me feel like, just like hell, but you... Never the two shall follow me Never the two shall follow me I've been here but I'm not here

Careful where you point that finger Someone could be watching "Pull your paws out of your pocket Straighten up your slouching" Everybody's gotta stand for something Sometime that something's nothing "My words should be your mantra Forget what the others said Don't make up your mind or question Other thoughts aren't welcome" Collective ideas Collective minds Collecting information Morals based on education We don't need no legislation to absolve the population
