Breaking Down the Dreams We Make Real
I can feel no sense of measure
No illusions as we take refuge in young man’s pleasure
Breaking down the dreams we make real

Song Excerpts
Don’t Surround Yourself with Yourself
Don’t surround yourself with yourself
Mountains Come out of the Sky and They Stand There
Take a Look out of the Window
Now the verses I’ve sang
Don’t add much weight to the story in my head
So I’m thinking I should go and write a punchline
But they’re so hard to find in my cosmic mind
So I think I’ll take a look out of the window
Use Me Any Time You Want
Move me on to any black square,
use me any time you want
