1.	Standing on the Shoulders of Giants 04:00	lyrics	buy track
t’s my plan Take a day, dissipate Look out from my hide away I’ll just float through my life Do what I want, baby It’s my right All the time, I can find An easy out, easy move I’ll just sleepwalk through life Do what I can, baby I never really noticed how I Get in your way all the time Oh how could I Get in your mind Feeding my pride I’m not here, I’m up there Oh I’m standing on the shoulders of giants What I fear, what you bear Oh I’m standing on what? I’ll control Every day, manipulate I’ll get into your mind, cus it’s What I know I can do Think for yourself, baby Take your leave Getting out, run away Never looking back into the Death in my eyes, so dark So tell it all, baby Ooh, so you’re bleeding Don’t you know I can bleed too Or are you too concerned for yourself to think twice Am I the nightmare, I bet you think I’m walking still
2.	Autofire 05:12	lyrics	buy track
Feels like my life’s just running away On a dead end road to the city Got a one way ticket to paradise, I guess Oh I wish it’s a lie Feels like my head’s caught in a delay Only seeing what’s come and gone, again Got a one way flight, I missed the gate, I missed the call I’m on auto fire Missed the trigger, missed the wire I’m on auto fire I’m shooting after you Heat shimmers From the barrel of my gun No one seems to be around No one seems to be around Smoke rises up Gets caught in the sun What am I doing now What am I doing here Feels like I just can’t stop missing you You’re the glue gun in my head and in my heart I’ve got the bricks in my hands, and maybe you and I Could build a house up to the sky I’m on auto fire Missed the trigger, missed the wire I’m on auto fire I’m shooting after you Heat shimmers From the barrel of my gun No one seems to be around No one seems to be around Smoke rises up Gets caught in the sun What am I doing now What am I doing here
3.	You Know Nothing 04:22	lyrics	buy track
I can’t always be the fool again I can’t always, take up the blame Funny cause you know nothing I don’t wanna make a friend of you No I don’t want to, play at your game Funny cause you know nothing All the while I’ve been falling deeper into my head Thinking over, getting closer with the words that you’ve said All the while I’ve been falling deeper into my head Thinking over, getting closer with the words that you’ve said I’m just floating in the dead of night Feels like I’m flying, flying away Funny cause you know nothing I’m not gonna take a hit at you No I don’t have to, I’ve got my home, my love Funny cause you know nothing All the while I’ve been falling deeper into my head Thinking over, getting closer with the words that you’ve said All the while I’ve been falling deeper into my head Thinking over, getting closer with the words that you’ve said

Where should I be let go My home, I’m living in Fear of you, what can I do? I guess its life now And my heart bleeds You said I was your friend Some time ago And I don’t see Those words can really sting, oh Those words can really sting 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 I'm still here You're still falling over And this for me This for me is going home Is going home I don’t want to waste my time, I don’t want to care I’m getting by, I feel alright There’s nothing left here And my heart bleeds I guess I never want To be inside And I don’t see My words will wash away What I never got to say 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 You’re still here I’m not falling over We will be What we have is going home Whats the use Of getting bitter I’m not feeling better Don’t wanna get down This for me This for me is going home
