Coded 03:41
Don’t work so hard In disregard You will fake what I will make Who can say what’s true Did you labour The cards on the table Until they’re through This brilliant find These wide eyed youth Sparingly trickle down troubled truths Adore the version you’re today No broken mouth No words that stain And from the start You played the part Where you will fake these things we make Who could say what’s you Did you savour The cards on the table Until they’re few A slight of hand A trusted gaze As red as the ramblings operate Adore the version you’re today Won’t you come out and play Where no one will be watching you You will fake these things we make Who could say what’s you Did you labour The cards on the table These novelties and honesties Can tell tall tales and true Duly noted Uncoded

Narrows 04:16
In a line of limitation In a world of complication Hey hold In the Narrows your life was told You pull it out You pull it in You stand alone what were you thinking So brave so bold In the Narrows where time grows old In the Narrows Straight and narrow You don’t rely You don’t relate But in the wings you harvest this wait So hey take hold In the Narrows where time grows old You pull it out You pull it in You stand alone what were you thinking So brave so bold In the Narrows your life was told In the Narrows Straight and narrow 
What you have uncovered You’ll never recover There’s no way of knowing These virtues are showing This blistering down fight Stay awake all night There’s no way of knowing These virtues are showing  What you have uncovered You’ll never recover There’s no way of knowing These virtues are showing This blistering down fight Stay awake all night Can see it in your face You were of this place Of the Narrows In a line of limitation In a world of complication Hey hold In the Narrows your life was told

Tricky 03:00
Bonds and ways and days are tricky Hold against the wave of this fortune The more it taunts you Disappoints you To hate that it’s made it So complicated Idle times and finds are vivid Hold against the wave of this fortune One step forward One step awkward And who should have known by the way it has gone Just stow it away for a day like today When all the wants and taunts Can rest in you
