At The Forks 02:05
Do you like songs? Do you feel strong? You can land in the footsteps You can roll in the green grass You can enter the kingdom You can sing right along But the key and the question is: Do you like songs? Do you feel strong? Because The wheels of oppression The rest of the story The fact is while we go on The wheels keep rolling Roll over heaven Roll on the country They just spin forever The wheels of oppression

The Old Song 02:58
But the syncarp isn’t free Until it's finished from the tree And another life is seen Through a canopy of eaves Into the bright dawn sky

How long has it been? One, two, three, four Years since I was free Oh poor lonesome me How long do I have? Five, six, seven, eight Years until I can Go back home again When they told me you had to die Well you know I nearly cried But when they told me the killer was I There was no time to ask why I don’t like this anymore than you do But I have to see it through No I don’t like this anymore than you do But I had to see it through It doesn’t matter what you think Stupid little trial And it doesn’t matter what you’ve heard You’re stupid, you’re stupid No it doesn’t matter what they say Stupid little trial And it doesn’t matter what you’ve learned You’re stupid not to know That the closest you’re ever going to get to an answer Is a paradox, baby, and I won’t let you forget it You’re a finite never ending And you’re always going to end up wrong Stupid little trier

This house used to be a motel On a highway to something But now I’m not going anywhere When I first got here There was nothing else for miles around The road stabbed the sky like a knife Plunged deep in the horizon And I was prepared My sack was full of maps and things But you don’t have to move to get lost To be born is unfair It takes a million steps to reach the top But it only takes one slip to fall back down This house used to be a motel On a highway to something But now I’m not going anywhere I’ve forgotten what brought me this far And I no longer care

I sit around all day doing nothing Like a dying houseplant watching the rain outside I lay around all day thinking nothing I could think about getting up but that could take all night Please don’t go away, you have to stay, I've wasted days before Please don’t go away, don’t slip away, don’t fade away, I’m yours Fat Sunday, I'll hit the ground, I hit the ground so hard Fat Sunday, I’ll nail you down, I’ll rise before you’re gone Please don’t go away, you have to stay, I've wasted days before Please don’t go away, I’ll make it pay, I can't remain so low Help me suffocate I won’t, I don’t know why I can’t stop breathing I’ve lost the will to die
