Air 03:02
you can’t put two and two together they say it’s a bad deal but you don’t draw your hand and they’re watching their eyes the glass turned over all according to plan you can write in sand as the tide pulls away where will you turn when all of your life is just consequences? now time is moving backwards we work machine time is only clockwise caught in the drain circling you feels like there ain’t no other way gotta take the pain give it all away give it away now come on

Yr Own Eyes 02:43
see with your own eyes might just go blind chain-linked to barbed wire not in your hands weak hands saving your borrowed time shades of your velvet dream looks like you get what you got whirlwind of crosshairs sit tight not your blood on my hands since i been on downtime, slit eyes, split town your mind, not mine, my, my trailed red blood on your side see how just one life, one lie might just go by
