~”Stasis"
(instrumental)

~”The Sun Still Rises”
Here I am, day has begun
Open my eyes to the gleam and glare of the sun
What roads do I still have to run?

Here I go, on with the show
Is there a heat wave, a tropical storm, is there snow?
These days, I don’t want to know

~”Reaching for Meatspace”
I miss connection
All my friends I used to have good times with
Or did we; maybe I took it all for granted
What did I really do with them?
What fun was had? Am I a fun person?
Do I enjoy fun things?

What am I reaching for?
Some illusion built from false memories
Some spectre built on foolish dreams
Some hope that these bridges are worth crossing again

~”Anthem of a Generation”
Will there be any closure, for this sort of tragedy
Human lives and legacies, fell in the calamity
They’ll say it could be better, but also a little worse
At least you know they’ll stay to true to their words
I could go and go on, about their never-changing world

Give me the words and the melody, and the right chords to play
Give me the anthem of a generation, the one that won’t decay
And when I sell out stadiums, just like I did this germ
I’ll reach in and tug my brain stem, time to feed the worm

~”Normalcy”
Hey everybody, the coast is clear!
The plague is gone and there’s nothing left to fear
We can continue our lives as before

Have ourselves a long day at the beach
Spend the weekend, a whole week, maybe more
Haha life is grand

~”Silence in the War Room”
All falls silent in the war room
Nothing makes a sound
Crimson fire cloaks the mainland
Set off underground

All falls silent in the bunker
Skeletons and guns
Politicians and lawmakers
Never saw the sun

All is peaceful terra firma
Angels roam the fields
Lifted us from Hell’s persistence
Lifted from the real

~”The Meaning of Life”
What is life but patterns?
What is life but intuition?
What is life but sadness?
What is life but rumination?
What is life but pleasure?
What is life but satisfaction?
What is life at all?
