No retreat - everybody’s different they don’t see the distance or control  Sigh of relief - changing of the seasons, all the ice is melting not my fault     Time flies when you’re chasing tornadoes  No going back to the way it was    Ignorance - put me in a bubble read the daily struggle magazines  Salivate - celebrity fever mirroring some pissant on tv     Mind’s eye isn’t nothing like it was  Be kind to yourself when you are lost    Up yourself - Everyone’s a greenhorn, just a little pecan in your poop  Shut your mouth - have another mushroom, we’re not here to serve you - you’ll find out    Time flies when you’re chasing tornadoes  I’m going to find a way to be the change in the world that I want!  Mind’s eye isn’t nothing like it was  Be kind to yourself when you are lost    Be the change in the world that you want

Shallows 03:06
How Come it takes so much longer to arrive than get on home? How Come all the suspense adds to the final outcome? Who Says roll up your sleeves, the job’s already half there?  Who Says you get what you deserve, have you lived a life that’s not always fair?    I'll try to humour you, not be confused by you I guess that it's all the same I'll try to humour you, not be consumed by you Walking in the shallows of pain   How Come a brother can be sunny when his buddy can be sinking in grey?  Who Says choices you made are peppered with the power of blame?  How Come frail or cold, vultures swoop & pick at your soul? How Come you live a large life and they tell you you’re 100 years old?    I'll try to humour you, not be confused by you I guess that it's all the same I'll try to humour you, not be consumed by you Walking in the shallows of pain           You make my head spin – Don’t stop me if I’m looking in  You make my heart race – DON’T STOP ME!     I'll try to humour you, not be confused by you I guess that it's all the same I'll try to humour you, not be consumed by you Walking in the shallows of pain              I'll try to humour you, not be confused by you I guess that it's all the same I'll try to humour you, not be consumed by you Walking in the shallows of pain

We got the finance to be wired, glued out on the street   Time inspired, lifetime of defeat  We all got something, someone else to blame  An addiction for the age of pain    All of the hours that I wasted chasing no regrets  La fucking money, huffing cigarettes  Don’t lend a hand out to the overwhelmed  I’ll just keep walkin’ by myself  Just keep walkin’ by myself

Wildfire 03:25
Show me some reasons I should slow  Just look ahead we need to grow, why’d I find you  Walking out on everything, I’d rather sink or swim  Sometimes if you’re in between, just wasting time    I’ll do what it takes to get it done, I’ll get it done  Give it all I got to get it done, I’ll get it done    Maybe we only get one go  Demand more than the status quo, ill remind you  Show me passion of extremes, truly it’s all or nothing  If you’re floating in between, you’re wasting time    I’ll do what it takes to get it done, I’ll get it done  Give it all I got to get it done, I’ll get it done    Fanning the flames in our mind, it burns like wildfire    Just look ahead you need to show, why I found you  Down and out on everything, high time to shine    I’ll do what it takes to get it done, I’ll get it done  Give it all I got to get it done, I’ll get it done    Fanning the flames in our mind, it burns like wildfire  Won’t leave it for another day, by walkin on wire    I’ll do what it takes to get it done, I’ll get it done  Give it all I got to get it done, I’ll get it done    I’ll get it done

Inside relief is shutting off, while I unknot  Deprived unease has cost me more, than train of thought    Seems it didn’t come to much  I can’t say I like the way you run your mouth, if you’re so avant-garde    Grandeur of delusion  No time for confusion on the road  That kind of affliction  Sunshines on the fiction told    Seems it didn’t come to much  I can’t say I like the way you run your mouth, if you’re so avant-garde  Sticking through the thick and thin, left nothing in between beer and hard liquor   I ain’t like you at all anymore    And what if it’s killing us, a life of no thrills or fuss just getting old    Seems it didn’t come to much  I can’t say I like the way you run your mouth, if you’re so avant-garde  Sticking through the thick and thin, left nothing in between beer and hard liquor   I’m not like you at all anymore  I ain’t like you at all any anymore  I ain’t like you at all any anymore  I ain’t like you at all any any-more  I don’t like you at all

Load the catapult  With bags of salt  Bikies and monks  Changin’ the locks    I love being left alone, some say obsessed  If you could see how slow, off I go around and round instead  For Once I’ll come back home, not in distress  If life is Romeo, time’s Juliet    El Diablo - Bows  Try wipe the smile - Proud  Jalapeno - Noir  Ram it up ya - Oww!    I love being left alone, some say obsessed  If you could see how slow, off I go around and round instead  For Once I’ll come back home, not in distress  If life is Romeo, times Juliet    I love been left alone, some say obsessed  If you could see how slow, off I go around and round instead  For Once I’ll come back home, not in distress  If life is Romeo, time’s Juliet  If life’s just audio all I know, Lenny gave his best

Tattoo 01:34
In a way, yeah I’m a fool  I sweat up and down an Olympic pool  I got stupefied when they justified, smashing molecules    I’ve been lightning, to the point of frightening   Life is attitude    When I break, mystified  Body couldn’t keep up with my mind  Wasn’t unprepared, just got quite a scare  Guess the soul resigned    Your fear’s a stonewall  And tears my ethanol  Free for all, one for free      I’ve been lightning, to the point of frightening   Life is attitude  So confronting, all night   I’m debunking all the lies I had tattooed

First time you see her  The energies clear  Heart of old gold, if only I could afford  The time and patience  To not be so blatant  Till we get there, let’s talk of the planet    Some say that we’re quite deranged  I play it up, but in my brain  The paradise is a steady stage  We laugh it off as we celebrate    I’m higher than an aeroplane  I’m higher than an aeroplane     So when we’re jumpin’  Decisions are nothing   Would if I could but I can’t be your daddy  Just put your feet up  Not here to complete ya  Drop the fear, live for the repeater    Some say that we’re quite deranged  I play it up, but in my brain  The paradise is a steady stage  We laugh it off as we celebrate    I’m higher than an aeroplane  I’m higher than an aeroplane     Even if I wanna be like the colourful sea  Got yourself a dream  One day you’ll hear this, and all that you promised to be  Opened up to close  Not gonna let up but wont disrespect ups and downs    Some say that we’re quite deranged  I play it up, but in my brain  The paradise is a steady stage  We laugh it off as we celebrate    I’m higher than an aeroplane  I’m higher than an aeroplane   I’m higher than an aeroplane  I’m higher than an aeroplane   Than an aeroplane

A garden snake that’s feeling brave, still bloodstains in the moonlight  The boy that claimed its child’s play, confidence game burnt out my eyes    Cause if you go, reap what you sow  See that you’ll never find another    I thought for once we found a way, to keep the love up in a nosedive  Nobody wants a farce to drain what should be celebrated alive  I used to smile over to you, but you were busy looking elsewhere     So when you go, reap what you sow  See that you’ll never find another  The underworld, a frail songbird   Can sing your winter into summer    What does it mean to walk away, your lacking passion of ambition  Even the clouds of thunderous days, will pass over the superstition  Reliably anxiety, helped you forget me and your wallet   So when you go, reap what you sow  See that you’ll never find another  The underworld, a frail songbird   Can sing your winter into summer    So when you go, reap what you sow  See that you’ll never find another  The underworld, a frail songbird   Can sing your winter into summer    Reap what you sow  See that you’ll never find another  A frail songbird  Can sing your winter into summer

Gimme what I need,  Gimme what I need, Gimme what I need, Gimme what I need  Love to hear your band but I’ve got bad tinnitus  Can’t be heard above the ringing in my ears  Crank it to eleven – screw political correctness  Read my lips please    BELT IT OUT, THRASH IT OUT   Take me by surprise  GET ME OFF & SWEATY  Slam me with blood-curdling cries  Take me by surprise, hit me right between the eyes    Jokers run for cover and retreat into the night  Take no prisoners, play a part in their demise    Caution to the wind, put your name up there in lights   Smash ‘em right between the thighs    BELT IT OUT, THRASH IT OUT   Take me by surprise  GET ME OFF & SWEATY  Hit ‘em right between the  BELT IT OUT, THRASH IT OUT   Take me by surprise with your goddamn curdling cries    Gimme what I need,  Gimme what I need, Gimme what I need, Gimme what I need, Give it to me please

Bumblebee 05:53
Smash me out from pillar to post, cracked in the ribs won’t throw in the fucking towel  Empty mirror reflects your ghost, be rest assured I see you’re delusional  Hey little bumblebee, I’m not quite sure where I wanna be - Man overboard!    Scared I know, let it go  Chew on pieces of me   Ashes no more a tree  Everyone, comes undone     Sometimes it feels like I lost everywhere  If you bruise then you care  I was reaching for something that’s made up of air  In a strange atmosphere  I’m not losing today  Can’t wait to fade away    If only you could see me now, more beast than man in stature of light and sound  Hey little bumblebee, I’m not quite sure where I wanna be – does that strike a chord?    Scared I know, let it go  Chew on pieces of me  Ashes no more a tree  Everyone, comes undone     Sometimes it feels like I lost everywhere  If you bruise then you care  I was reaching for something that’s made up of air  In a strange atmosphere  Sometimes it feels like I lost everywhere  If you bruise then you care  I was reaching for someone who's made up of air  In a strange atmosphere  I’m not losing today  Refuse to feel ashamed  Can’t wait to fade away

Ground underneath you shakes  Everything loving fades away  Captured in a frame  Accost my only time today    Dream of sleep, like it’s my oldest friend, well guess again   I dream of sleep, waiting for time to suspend well that depends     Back when we used to play  No such thing as a rainy day  Sun lit a smiling face  Nothing else left to contemplate    Dream of sleep, like it’s my oldest friend, well guess again   I dream of sleep, waiting for time to suspend well that depends  On that feeling deep inside, I’ll strap myself in for the ride    Tomorrow, bring out the clearest skies  As meadows float over sleepy eyes  My Rainbow, keep myself mesmerised  As I froze my bed electrified    Dream of sleep, like it’s my oldest friend, well guess again   I dream of sleep, waiting for time to suspend well that depends  On that feeling deep inside, I’ll strap myself in for the ride

about

Recorded in the Aussie countryside at Beveridge Road Studios with Marc Russo. We lived and breathed the tracking for the better part of two weeks, sometimes pulling 16 hour days to bring together all the guitars and harmonies to life. Rock beast Lindsay Gravina (Hole, Jet, Cosmic Psychos, Violent Soho) joined us on the full mixing and mastering of the album and really took it to a whole new level. - Grasshole

“These songs and performances capture the spirit of the 90’s as well as anything I’ve worked on these past few years, but with a few surprising twists!” - Lindsay Gravina
