So Maybe
02:15
|

|
So maybe we all make mistakes
That doesn't mean we have to hurt people
Don't talk about my life, worry bout your own shit
Read a chapter on the book of yourself
Any old mirror has the entire version
We all try to be perfect
People take note of our flaws and personify them way out of proportion
Maybe your achievements are great but who do you believe?
Me or you, Maybe its true, Maybe its you
So maybe we all are confused
That doesn't mean we have to please your view
Don't talk about my thing, concentrate on
Concentrate on your own damn life
Watch a program all about yourself
Any old sitcom has the entire version
We all try to be moulded
People take note of our shit and personify it way outta proportion
Maybe your achievements are great but who do you believe?
Me or you, Maybe its true, Maybe its you

Sometimes life it is weird
How quickly things can change
For an instant the storm is strong and violent.
Next moment you are underneath
The blue surrounding sun
These precious moments I have grown to love
I have grown to love
So bloom like flowers on the plain
Don't be afraid move forward
To never ending gain don't stop dot refrain
Cause walking blind and backwards
Can only cause you pain
No Time for change
Time to turn the page
Rearrange

The Puzzle
02:19
|
|||
|
Changes to the outer core
Are just the beginning of this life
Delving deep inside
To break the patterns learned in life
All I ever wanted with my time is to be happy
I had to look inside it’s not the same for everyone
Ooh yeah everyone is different
Ooh yeah but the same
And I know it’s the final piece to the puzzle
Cause everyone is different but the same
Retired, not tired
I’ll take my time to taste the wine
I see the finish line
And I am winning
Desire, on fire
My heart is just about to burst
I see the finish line
And I am grinning
Ooh yeah everyone is different
Ooh yeah but the same
And I know it’s the final
And I know it’s the final
Piece to the puzzle

Freak
04:01

|
You know what’s right for me
But you can’t get your own life straight
My decisions are my own
Don’t need permission to control my fate
There’s something missing I’ve known all along
I hope I haven’t left it too late
So now you know a little slice of me
And I’m feeling fucking great
And I see the way everyone stares at me
And I have to just be myself be set free
I am smiling does that mean I am a freak?
I don’t care cause I’m happy that I’m a
Freak
Free Me
Freak
Free Me
You know what’s good for me
You can’t get your life straight
There is no choice for me
This is my only fate
You know what’s good for me
Then you should truly see
There is no choice for me
Don’t call me freak
And I see the way everyone stares at me
And I have to just be myself be set free
I am smiling does that mean I am a freak?
I don’t care cause I’m happy that I’m a
Freak
Freak of you speak of you see me now free Me
Free Me
Freak of you speak of you see me now free Me
Freak
Freak of you speak of you see me now free
Even if I was a guy well you still wouldn’t understand me
Even if I was a girl well you still wouldn’t understand me
So I’ll just keep on living my life knowing you will never understand me
You go your way and I’ll go mine and then we can both be happy

You and me living out our fantasy
Free to be anything you choose to be
Freedom, yours, ours it’s mine to breathe
Free to be anything you choose to be
Cutting through the lies
Open eyes
Gender Optimized
Two point zero
A hero fighting for acceptance in their eyes
Are you Optimized?
Or less than zero?
You and me living out our fantasy
Free to be anything you choose to be
You and me for all to see
There’s nothing much inside of me
That didn’t need no secrets sleeping
Unlike others secrets keeping
Freedom to express the feelings
Deep within your inner dreaming of
Anything you choose to be
Cutting through the lies
Open eyes
Gender Optimized
Two point zero
A hero fighting for acceptance in their eyes
Are you Optimized?
Or less than zero?

Throwing Stones

I'm on a table
And I'm screaming out your name
My Life's disabled without you
I am a fable
I will read myself to you one day
But right now I cant continue
I will stand on my own two feet an pray
Throwing stones down by the river
I will stand on my own two feet an pray
Throwing stones down by the river
I'm on a table
And I'm screaming out your name
My Life's disabled without you
I am a fable
I will read myself to you one day
But right now I cant continue
I will stand on my own two feet an pray
Throwing stones down by the river
I will stand on my own two feet an pray
Throwing stones down by the river

Supergirl Symdrome
03:15
|

|
There once was a boy trapped in a nightmare
Under the illusion she was strange
The little boy was funny, underneath the radar
Avoiding all exclusion from day to day
Years to years
Now there’s a girl exploding from within and loving everything
Waking up to feel alive
Finally enjoying life
Emotions flowing running wild
I’m glad that I am finally free
Supergirl syndrome
Don’t hide yourself away from exposure anymore
Supergirl syndrome
Don’t hide away
There once was a boy buried in self loathing
It had to be more complex than just wearing women’s clothing
The little boy became a man living with a fake identity
Screaming from within her set me free
Finally me
Now there’s a girl exploding from within and loving everything
Waking up to feel alive
Finally enjoying life
Emotions flowing running wild
I’m glad that I am finally free
Supergirl syndrome
Don’t hide yourself away from exposure anymore
Supergirl syndrome
Don’t hide away
Don’t hide away
Don’t hide away
Don’t hide away

The Conundrum
05:04
|

|
He said he wanted to set her free
She said he could not let that be
He knows who she has become
But he couldn't quite understand how come
He lies awake while she is sleeping
He feels her heart beating
She wakes and his mind escapes her
His thoughts have sunk to something deeper
There will be no progression without sacrifice
She will never be happy till he is gone
He knows, he has thought it a thousand times
The inner battle
I’m searching for inner beauty
He gets up and goes outside
To walk the street and
Take a walk through his mind
He wants to get to the bottom of it all
But he's scared of looking at
What he knows he'll find
They say if you love something
You should set it free
Let it do it's own thing, let it be
But he knows that she won't go anywhere
She's got no where left to go
Don't let her fade away
There'll be no progression without sacrifice
He can sit and dwell on it all night
He'll never be happy until he sees her smile
The inner battle
Searching for inner beauty

So Beautiful, so lovely
Sweet touch so gently
I feel you inside me
You let me be
Standing on the edge of love
Looking to the sky above
A tear in my eye
Need some glue to mend my heart
Without you I’d fall apart
Inside I’d die
So beautiful to me
So beautiful to me
You’re so Beautiful, so lovely
So lovely
You’re sweet touch is so gently
So gently
Well I feel you inside me
Inside me
You let me be
Standing on the edge of love
Looking to the sky above
A tear in my eye
Need some glue to mend my heart
Without you I’d fall apart
Inside I’d die
Satisfaction guaranteed
He’s the only one I need
No word of a lie
You’re a boy and I’m a girl
Together we can rule the world
Just you and I
Standing on the edge of love
Looking to the sky above
A tear in my eye
Need some glue to mend my heart
Without you I’d fall apart
Inside I’d die
Satisfaction guaranteed

Care Factor Zero

How do I wake up, every morning and
Even care less about myself
Than the day before
Is it my appearance that
Leads me astray
Maybe by the time I get to myself
I'm already out of love
I'm already out of love
Sometimes I don't feel loved
But I just convince myself that I am
Then concentrate on loving everyone but myself
Loving everyone but myself
How do I wake up, every morning and
Even care less about myself
Than the day before
Is it my appearance that
Leads me astray
Maybe by the time I get to myself
I'm already out of love
I'm already out of love
Sometimes I don't feel loved
But I just convince myself that I am
Then concentrate on loving everyone but myself
Loving everyone but myself
Loving everyone but myself
Loving everyone but myself
Loving everyone but myself
Loving everyone but myself

The words meshed into some sort of self
Indulgent memories that strangers could not grasp
This room of ghosts & speeches seemed to hang
On words that left them in the past
The quiet ridicule that circled in the heads
Suggesting that the words came to fast
This mindless babble occupied empty spaces
Of the caffeine enriched social class
Conversations
Conversations
Conversations
Conversations
The Selfish thoughts on life they analyse
Over hot coffee and burning fires
Absorbing nothing but the views that
Comfort the pain of overwhelming size
They gather to debate the price of fish
To politics and the endless lies
Hiding in their caffeine word dribbling
Shit in the university disguise
