Gemini Eyes 00:50
Open up them Gemini eyes I just wanna simulate being relaxed Anxiety reduction Why make this a production I’m standing on your corner wondering if you will answer I feel like turning into a bird Flying high over head Trying to get a view Somewhere right over you Instead, you bring me right back to ground Framing the question now Does disappointment creep? Into your cruel smirk
2.
Waves 01:40
Waves... I can smell your presence from a million miles away Waves... I can hear your yearning Yeah You’re pulling me away Waves... I can see anticipation taking over me Waves... When I touch You touch We touch I merge into the sea And I cannot wait I cannot wait To taste Taste the sea The sea Don’t you see That I’m ready Ready To see

Yee da Da da doo (Yes yes ya do do do do) Yee da Da da doo (Yes yes ya do do do do) Yee da Da da doo (Yes yes ya do do do do) (Yes) By the seat of our edges By the edges of our seats By the seat of our edges By the edges of our seats Yee da Da da doo By the edges of our seats By the seat of our edges By the edges of our seats By the seat of our edges Yee da Da da doo We’re entering an era of no truth Who can we believe We’re entering an era of no truth Rationality Insanity Where to escape I don’t know where I’m stuck right here With you We’ll survive In an era of no truth Yes we’ll survive By the seat of our edges By the edges of our seats By the seat of our edges By the edges of our seats Yee da Da da doo By the edges of our seats By the seat of our edges By the seat of our edges By the edges of our seats Yee da Da da doo We’re entering an era of no truth Who can we believe We’re entering an era of no truth
 Rationality Insanity Where to escape I don’t know where I’m stuck right here With you We’ll survive In an era of no truth Yes we’ll survive

Martinique 04:28
It was a cold harsh winter Need escape We set our eyes outside this space It was a cold harsh winter Need a break We set our hearts outside this space Mmm Martinique How sweet your waves lap by the bay Martinique Take us away Martinique We’re in need of your warm sun rays Martinique Let us repose It was a warming spring Memories We set our arms up to the sky It was a warming spring So much joy We’d never make it with you Mmm Martinique How sweet your waves lap by the bay Martinique Take us away Martinique We’re in need of your sun rays Martinique Let us repose Repose Repose Repose Repose Repose Repose Repose Repose... Martinique Martinique Martinique Martinique Baby Martinique Martinique Martinique Martinique Martinique Martinique Martinique Baby Martinique Martinique Martinique Baby Martinique Repose Repose Repose...

I could read intensity of reticence All over your face Raising awareness Vs Bearing witness (Which one?) It was my ethical duty To lighten up your burden To leave or ghost Never crossed my mind (I can’t pick) Zora said “My tongue is in the mouth of my friend” You sweetly capture all of my cadence Frederick said “Power concedes nothing without demand” You never have and you never will (Why not babe?) I could feel the tension You want to change direction They’re all up in your mentions You have all the vision Paint me into corner We feel just like a prison They see a composition of love in a frame Ignoring flaking oil paint falling to ground True union doomed by exposure Wishing we had some closure Stand still We represent something Stand still We represent something Stand still We represent something Pure
