- And All That Could Have Been
- Every Day Is Exactly The Same: "I wish this could have been any other way"
- La Mer: "I think I could have been someone"
- Sunspots: "I think I could have been someone / but I can’t stop what has begun"
Underneath it all
- The Way Out Is Through: underneath it all / we feel so small
- Underneath It All: hear your call / underneath it all
Virus
- Heresy: he made a virus to kill off all the swine
- The Warning: you’ve become a virus / that has eaten up its host
Waking up
- Even Deeper: "I woke up today to find myself in the other place"
- Gave Up: "wake up / wake up in flames"
- We’re In This Together: "awake to the sound"
- Home: "I awake to find I’m not at all where I should be"
