The Sun was up and the sea was down The break of day makes me red around A burning sky turned the sea to dust A superheat makes my toes combust It’s been so long since I saw the rain The Sun’s so bright and the heat is pain That night the moon did begin to burn So when it’s cold, won’t the sea return? Oh did you hear that we don’t have long The air’s so hot and the wind is strong The break of day drives the cold away Tomorrow’s gonna be the hottest day Await a time when the land will sink I’ll sit by you and we’ll share a drink You'll look outside in your dressing gown Oh, the Sun was up and the sea was down

If you are suffering from pain inside your knees Then you’re in luck, a place can get that pain to ease On the small business scale the Crystal Sauna’s high They’ll cure you of your illness, just give them a try Call the number on your screen if you can If your fingers aren’t burning or broken or shorter or gone In Orbworld fields you’ll find a place so wonderful Soak up the energy, you will not regret it We’re on Crine Street Just down the road From the graveyard It was Professor Crugley who came up with it A risky treatment for a problem he saw fit He said “these crystals sure do have some energy” “Just take a look at what 3 years has done to me” Call the number on your screen if you can And Crugley answers screaming or scratching or something, who knows In Orbworld caves he found a place so wonderful Soak up the energy, you will not regret it His Fingerboy Is coming now He’s on his way Soak up the energy... You will... not... regret it...

Mr. Macadamia, He is such a heartbreaker, Doesn’t even know his niece’s name Used to live on farther street, Every Saturday he’d meet Someone at the café down the road Mrs Ellie Harbinger, She is such an arbiter, Knows so much about the coral sea Underneath the ocean blue Every single day, she knew It’s the place that she was meant to be One day she saw What was it for? There’s someone else down on the ocean floor You know his face Seen him before But that was back when he was still alive Mr. Macadamia Looking very pale It’s a condition that you get when you are dead Someone took his life away Thought he shouldn’t live today But how the hell’d he end up in the sea? Maybe it’s Aurelia Or maybe Mr. Sabia Who was it he was meeting on Saturday? Something’s going wrong with him What’s that glowing growth on him? And why is his dead heart beating again? One day he saw What was it for? He saw something he’d never seen before I can’t explain It wants to reign But now he’s dead and yet he’s still alive I can see it’s Maca’s form But who’s really in control? Just behind those eldritch eyes Someone’s watching from the sky

Do they say that the grass has been greener? Someone else has been here in my stead While I watched winding clocks minding my own business Won’t someone come and take me away? I know you want to go outside and see the real world But there’s something you should know before you take a chance So I wait by the road of the factory And a large mystic car drives slowly towards me Someone extends their hand and I grasp it Once again someone’s taken over me I know you want to go outside and see the real world But there’s something you should know before you take a chance Your mind is unfolding I’ll say I Got Outside Somebody is watching Oh well at least you tried I will take you to a place where you can finally be alone Just your mind and only you and no-one else to taint it It might sound too good to be true but trust me it’s alright The only person here with you is he who’s in your mind Your mind is unfolding I’ll say I Got Outside Somebody is watching Oh well at least you tried

about

Tried to go for a more prog-rock style for this album. Changed to using Studio One instead of FL Studio. Started using a lot more real instruments and played a lot more of the tracks myself to make them sound less computer-y.
