• The Line Begins To Blur: "isn’t anyone stopping me?"
• My Violent Heart: "You cannot stop us all"
• Me, I’m Not: "hey, can we stop?"
• Discipline: "you know once I start I cannot stop myself"

Tiny little dot

• Down In It:

Just then a tiny little dot caught my eye it was just about too small to see

But I watched it way too long and that dot was pulling me down

• Only:

Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye

And it turned out to be a scab

And I had this funny feeling

Like I just knew it's something bad

That which could have or would have been

• The Wretched: "all the what abouts, and all the might have could have beens"
• The Great Below: "for all we could have done, and all that could have been"
• 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

Used up

• We’re In This Together: all used and beaten up
• Love Is Not Enough: left for dead and all used up
• Head Down: all used up half way through

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"
• 1,000,000: "I wake up on the floor"
