Missing 03:20
I heard you're missing Where did they take you? I got your missive I read it half way through I think you'll find That we're ok But you're offline You're hard to find And we're ok But you're offline You could be Post evictim You could be Royalty On an island Of your making Are you free? Arguably I heard you're missing I heard you're missing I heard you're missing Someone tried to phone I didn't pick up The number was unknown I think you'll find That we're ok But you're offline You're hard to find And we're ok But you're offline You could be Poster victim You could be Celebrity We won't waste Our time looking Are you free? Arguably Blown to bits, shot to pieces Lost at sea, you and me Kind regards, felicitations The platitudes you spoon feed me I heard you're missing I heard you're missing

Law Here 05:16
Keep the medicines out of direct sunlight And you bark don't bite if you want to survive Keep the windows closed in case I go blind And the air I breathe has been through you and I don't mind Don't you think they know? I'm insured Don't you think they know? I want to be ignored They're living in the walls Laughing through the floor Don't you think they know? I'm feeling so unsure It's the law here It's the law here Please release me when I'm fully grown I can go outside and find friends of my own We'll keep the windows closed in case I go blind And the air I breathe has been through you and I don't mind It's so bright It's so bright It's so bright Don't you think they know? I'm insured Don't you think they know? I want to be ignored They're living in the walls Laughing through the floor Don't you think they know? I'm feeling so unsure Of the law here What's the law here?

An attraction to the cruelty of nature Did not endear you to your peers Though they never said they hate you They didn't show you love either Stop talking about the things you want Start talking about the things you don't need Stop taking pictures of your food Stop breathing. Stop it I'm taking control I'm digging a hole I'm taking control Give me the control They never let you ring the school bell They run and hide when you show your face You fucked up every party you went to The cost of distaste The look on their face Stop talking about the things you want Start talking about the things you don't need Stop taking pictures of your food Stop breathing. Stop it I'm taking control I'm digging a hole I'm taking control Give me the control Inattention to behaviour in others Pay attention to the words on your screen Your attention to this matter is required Attention span. Attention please Stop talking about the things you want Start talking about the things you don't need Stop taking pictures of your food Stop breathing. Stop it Control, control, control, control issue

Vitamins 05:21
Met in a taxi queue I'm going home with you And I can hardly wait Can we call this a date? Vitamins Won't you get them in Discount holes in the floor Somebody sold the door I'll pay your library fine If you will just be mine Vitamins Got to get away Safe from heresay Got to get away Can't stand the replay Got to get away Fight the decay Got to get away Get away, get away Vitamin K is nice You need it in your life My life is in your fridge Sometimes I get the itch Will I get home on time It's looking borderline Go to the pharmacist If anythings remiss Vitamins Got to get away Safe from heresay Got to get away Can't stand the replay Got to get away Fight the decay Got to get away Get away, get away It's a contagious lie Mind working overtime Cat hairs on your black dress Burning hair makes a mess Wait in a taxi queue I'm coming home to you Smell of the night before Fall asleep on the floor Vitamins Got to get away Safe from heresay Got to get away Can't stand the replay Got to get away Fight the decay Got to get away Get away, get away
