Falling Awake
I wrote this song for my partner, Katie, who also accompanies me on vocals. Falling awake in this world Falling awake Leaving the stars in my sleep And falling awake You make it easy to feel like I'm dreaming when I'm not You make it easy to keep on steering when I'm lost Falling awake in this world Falling awake Leaving the stars in my sleep And falling awake You make it easy to feel like I'm dreaming when I'm not You make it easy to keep on steering when I'm lost Together we are Forever like stars falling And as we rest here Life is brighter with you Falling awake in this world Falling awake Leaving the stars in my sleep And falling awake You make it easy to feel like I'm dreaming when I'm not You make it easy to keep on steering when I'm lost Falling awake in this world Falling awake Falling awake in this world Falling awake Falling awake in this world Falling awake Falling awake in this world Falling awakemore

Embrace The Haste
Every time I blink, it's new Poly-simulation view Cherished by a swollen heart Mortality is forging through Is evermore just a dream Blanketed with splitting seams Will this all be left behind Or created on the other side Wish I could take you there We could go today No time to waste Embrace the haste Wish I could take you there We could go today No time to waste Embrace the haste Embrace the haste Can't perceive this syntax flaw Tripping on my syntax jaw If all that is will wash away Without a merge another day Resoluteness never dimmed Broken circuits seldom win I soak you up, you see me through Symbiotic cosmic glue Wish I could take you there We could go today No time to waste Embrace the haste Wish I could take you there We could go today No time to waste Embrace the haste Embrace the haste Embrace the hastemore
