In the middle of the night I woke insomnia was it someone who spoke veronica I would have looked but I was too scared I would have looked but I was too scared who goes there I already knew who it was I asked her “Why me?” she said “Funny you asked but as you can see I never had a chance to ask it happened so very fast it happened so very fast” who goes there I already knew who it was in the darkness of my room I froze too many movies I suppose a little bit obvious I would have looked but I was too scared I would have looked but I was too scared who goes there I already knew who it was in the middle of the night I woke insomnia was it someone who spoke veronica I would have looked but I was too scared I would have looked but I was too scared who goes there I already knew who it was

Carnivore 02:52
Every seven miles on the shoulder of the expressway there they are with mustaches flashing lights and holsters like they were cowboys in a bar and every seven miles I’m reminded of their intentions bare they are they only see you and me as dollar signs potential fines they have got our attention resentment our will to fulfill our professions we’re rich enough to pay we won’t fight back we can’t afford to we’re poor enough not to file a lawsuit a broken parachute we’re strong enough to take the beating enable repeating and they know this about us they have done their homework in their own words while every seven minutes on the corner of the ghetto there they’re not (because) there’s no prize in losing their lives leaving their wives a lot like widows without those pensions they mentioned on commencement Income versus expenses I won’t pose a threat let me get my wallet out I won’t even bother leaving the house leaving the house leaving my life for the rich and poor carnivore

Breakaway 04:32
What’s that on your nose what’s that in your secret pocket of your clothes and whose are those bracelets and earrings who’s that on the phone who’s that in the driveway unlisted call unknown thought you wanted to be on your own tempted by the things that you’ve lived without tempted by the things that you’ve read about tempted by some other life tempted by transparency and plenty of doubt your saint ain’t isn’t so innocent more illusion prostitution model citizen your saint ain’t isn’t so innocent breaking away breaking away your saint ain’t isn’t so innocent more illusion prostitution model citizen what’s that on your desk what’s that on your breath mints your eyes are bloodshot red are you upset are you allergic to who’s that on your mind who’s that when you’re sleeping you call for time and time again attempted to change but now it’s too late attempted to change destination of fate attempted to un-pursue unfinished business before something new your saint ain’t isn’t so innocent more illusion prostitution model citizen your saint ain’t isn’t so innocent breaking away breaking away your saint ain’t isn’t so innocent more illusion prostitution model citizen

Rank 03:04
So much fear playing hard to get assistant is a threat better yet a life-long lesson never learned a thing the string that is attached the finger that hasn’t scratched the surface it’s worthless trying to change the language and ritual residual reaction is habitual almost unoriginal what would it be like if you were free to share it with me without the ties authorized what would it be like if they could see to share your ideas the words that will free us I never enjoyed the thought of you being unemployed the void you would have left never filled and how it spilled over and under and how it makes me wonder trying to change the language and ritual residual reaction is habitual almost unoriginal what would it be like If you were free you can trust in us we both win if we’re both in what would it be like

Crusher 04:31
I drew up a plan been rehearsing in the mirror lips pursing reciting what I’m writing down a piece of paper in the fire it will be safer there at that very moment I cave in Wonder whose life it is I’m savin’ maybe I’d do better if I was prayin’ amen hunched down so no one will see me pull the car around feeling uneasy at that very moment I cave in wonder whose life it is I’m savin’ maybe I’d do better if I was prayin’ amen I returned an hour later waiting outside another piece of paper no one around no spectators the chance for success should be a little greater ‘til at that very moment I cave in wonder whose life it is I’m savin’ maybe I’d do better if I was prayin’ amen she’s all alone I think she sees me picking up the telephone feeling uneasy

The Stars 02:08
Are the stars satellites disguised far far away zooming in below how much do they know how much do they see farewell my privacy none the less they still can be only stars if I try real hard

Ahead 04:09
I wanna point my finger pass the blame around I won’t make a sound I will come out ahead cut you off when I get the chance to get ahead of you I wasn’t always like this I wasn’t so bold I used to be a novice left out in the cold shivering and waiting you know it just got old I would still be waiting when everybody’s guilty wrong becomes right it feels a little filthy losing your appetite break into a pharmacy and stay for the night it wasn’t really hard for me feel the chill the thrill of the aggressor steal their will and fill up your own I wanna point my finger pass the blame around I won’t make a sound I will come out ahead cut you off when I get the chance to get ahead of you if you see before and after pictures of me the latter’s moving faster yeah, it’s easy to see “yeah buts” never mattered outside of TV asterisks and answers
11.
Can’t sleep knowing you can’t sleep can’t sleep can’t leave knowing you can’t leave can’t leave it goes deep past-life deep when is sticking with it being stuck when does our destiny resemble having luck when is fighting for it being stubborn the more you learn the more you need to learn ask me how I felt and I will tell you I’m tired of being tired of seeing you like this a picture of getting old winter cold sans serif bold silver and gold energy remember her energy remember me seeing you like this how can I willingly keep you here it’s killing me seeing you like this how can I knowingly after all you’re showing me seeing you like this I’d rather have a broken heart than watch you fall apart I’d rather be alone than have a prison for a home moving forward looking back I have to ask how can I willingly keep you here it’s killing me seeing you like this how can I knowingly after all you’re showing me seeing you like this It’s gone on so long goodbye my love

Explosives 03:06
Paradise lost no matter the cost the mosque laws double-crossed sugar-daddy’s happy sugar-daddy gets off exhaust Uncle Sam gets soft oh my turning a blind eye alibi it’s Palestine’s fault Israeli resolve the wall what ever it’s called associated press a game of Chess God bless more or less reduced to tents and barbed-wire fence events their accidents their versions of insurgents are coercions close the curtains only when it hurts them cry out but we never get heard reduced to numbers and words explosives they will notice when it’s hopeless abyss self-esteem is a dream a nightmare where we’re all scared you know you had to be there to share to smell what hell smells like you can see it on TV you can see it LCD it’s a movie…

Policy 03:18
Everyone goes in headstrong with the greatest intentions it doesn’t take long not long before they fall victim to them find themselves where all the others fell for sale to sell a life for a life factors a gun for a knife actors and run for their life backwards appearances and promises the audience is cynical whimsical caught up in the now and not the know-how news will break it down to networks and forget words add them in where they will see it fit appropriate and wait for the replay rebuttal, cuddle up in the phrase policy a piece of the word police everyone gives up normalcy heroic in nature on paper a life for a life factors a gun for a knife actors and run for their life backwards Inheritance allowances the “now and thens” are similar singular caught up in the past, but not so fast the last to shake them down to benefits and deficits etiquettes And wait for them to call it quits and wait for the reply rebuttal, cuddle up in the phrase policy

Wrong Turn 02:27
“WRONG TURN” Wrong turn wrong right last night tragic magic light second thought maybe it’s not so wrong go long so so evident I had assumed moments like this were reserved for a Hollywood kiss there I was consumed like a mushroom cloud the opposite of loud another kind of love wrong turn wrong right last night tragic magic light second thought maybe it’s not so wrong go long so so evident left in daze out of character aircraft carrier fig leaf dove there I was confused like an abused twelve year old never had felt wrong turn wrong right last night tragic magic light second thought maybe it’s not so wrong go long so so evident

Up To Fate 02:18
From time to time I lose my mind taking you for granted not on purpose what so ever never did understand it never did understand it how lucky I am how lucky I am how lucky I am how lucky I am how lucky I am now I understand what took me so long to shed the dead weight connect be straight appreciate don’t leave it up to fate don’t leave it up to fate

about

A genre bending journey through sound and space and story. Andrew Doyle's abstract introspection makes these songs hard to forget. Laced with synthesizers, intricate bass guitar and powerful percussion, this hypnotic album does not lack low end.
