Track Name: Goodbye
Take a look around
So much uncertainty
Negativity
Astoundingly
There's no need

Profundity has its
Culpability
But you can push right through it, darling
You can push right through

Fare thee well, young friend. May what come, come in weightlessness.
Line your eyes in lead and fall inverted.
Bind your feet and hands.
Waves appear before you.

The bars begin to recede to recede
Before they all disappear
(just between you and me)
You were never really here

Clock your trip and your distance
Divide the sum by time.
Happiness is closer to you
And, so too, is the divine.

Fare thee well, young friend. May what come, come in weightlessness.
Line your eyes in lead and fall inverted.
Bind your feet and hands.
Waves appear before you.

Gently bend down the page
Until it meets the edge
And move into the space in between

Have a look around
And enjoy the view
Have a look around
And make some new friends
Have a look around
A new altitude
Have a look around
And you'll understand

This is a new place.
Track Name: Asanaginica (Original Version)
Što se bili u gori zelenoj?
al su snizi, al su labutovi?
da su snizi, već bi okopnili,
labutovi već bi poletili.

…

Kad li mu je ranam bolje bilo,
ter poruča virnoj ljubi svojoj:
"Ne čekaj me u dvoru bilomu,
ni u dvoru, ni u rodu momu."

…

Kad to čula Asanaginica,
bilim licem zemlji udarila,
u put se je dušom rastavila
od žalosti gledajuć sirota.
Track Name: Callisto
She appears
Again my dreams are not my own
Arms and mouth wide, astride a small bear
I run to her, I run to her, I run to her

Salt fills my shoes
I am swept into her sky

Mama's gonna lift you to the sky
Mama's gonna raise you up from the horizon

Callisto

Mama's gonna make it all alright
Mama's gonna shower you with light

Callisto

These new colors saturate my skin
These new colors warmed within
Your secret storm begins

I will offer them
I will provide them
I will offer them a safe harbor
