The Intro 04:20
2.
In Your Mind 05:20
So, you saw it unfold, the end of the road is not so far from here So take all of the time that you can find to carry the load that you bare Oh Oh Why can't we find the reasons behind all of this torment and torture And how could you survive the ice and the fire That they have frozen and burnt you with And if the rest fades away, remember today, the way I am now What if the places we've tried forever to find are just in our minds In our minds Oh Why can't we find the reasons behind all of this torment and torture And how could you survive the ice and the fire That they have frozen and burnt you with Oh Why can't we find the reasons behind all of this torment and torture And how could you survive the ice and the fire That they have frozen and burnt you with In your mind, in your mind, in your mind in your mind In your mind, in your mind, in your mind in your mind
3.
Falling apart again, calling through silent air/ no more all for one and one for all, every word we spoke we've said before If life's a game I'm missing all the pieces I need to play, and none of the rules make any sense to me Trying to understand why it never goes the way you've planned/ you just have to take it as it comes, and pray the worst has already been said and done It's quiet, I still can't hear the silence in my head over all the words I've never said/ I'm flying to brighter worlds that surely lie ahead, beyond all the words I heard you say It's quiet, I still can't hear the silence in my head over all the words I've never said/ I'm flying to brighter worlds that surely lie ahead, beyond all the words I heard you say Beyond the words I heard you say, beyond all the words I've heard you say
4.
How can I ever begin to tell you everything or anything/ happening deep inside or around me Oh oh, I guess we just don't know how the story goes Oh oh, I guess we'll have to learn as the pages turn Stepping outside my whole world just to be a part of yours/ how can I ever begin to want anything more? Oh oh, I tried to take it slow but I had to let you know I couldnt take it anymore, and had to let it all unfold Oh oh, I guess we just don't know how the story goes Oh oh, I guess we'll have to learn as the pages turn Oh oh, I tried to take it slow but I had to let you know I couldnt take it anymore, and had to let it all unfold
5.
On The Past 03:40
Falling down, I can't see the ground below me Do what you want with it, set me free/ it can't be more than what it will be Pieces of life like shattered glass, nothing can cut you like the past Nothing can give you back all those years/ nothing can change how all of this feels Just tell me how or when it will end/ unable to walk down this path again Do what you want with it, set me free/ it can't be more than what it will be Nothing can give you back all those years/ nothing can change how all of this feels
6.
Maybe I had spoke too early Made decisions without knowing what I want or what was really real Underneath the actions are the feelings of a heart thats broken That will not heal until it feels OK to feel Coming to terms with this world that you've created Constant only in its changes and mutations I have taken time to contemplate the situations and the problems I've created Waiting for the day that nothing's standing in my way What's the point in even going on at all if nothing's working Falling out of graces with all the angels The end will bring the next beginning Moving forward without thinking how it starts or where it all will end Starting to learn it is all just what you make of it As the bridge burns you see what you're walking away with I have taken time to contemplate the situations and the problems I've created Waiting for the day that nothing's standing in my way I have been pulled back and forth in each direction and still have no idea which way it is I'm heading And I have taken time to contemplate the situations and the problems I've created Waiting for the day that nothing's standing in my way
7.
So Long 03:03
Losing my soul through a loss of control The colors seem faded though the painting's brand new Horrible words and the cause for concern I don't think I can take it, I'll try to hold on So long, so long Tell me what I can do, and I'll play along Ooh, what can I do, it's all true A matter of time, a broken bottle of wine The grapes aged for nothing, what's it all for A slight of the hand, another kink in the plan How did this all happen, how can we go on So long, so long Tell me what I can do, and I'll play along Ooh, what can I do, it's all true So long, so long Tell me what I can do, and I'll play along Ooh, what can I do, it's all true

9.
It's all the same, nobody waiting at the end of the road/ to play their game, you have to give more than you can hold Come to realize the situation has gone far beyond your control Oh, in hindsight it all seems to be so clear/ how could you know it would take all you are to see/ what you are and how it's all meant to be Run out of time, what happens next nobody can know/ search for a sign, try to see how it all will unfold The more you learn the more you see that it was never really in your control Oh, in hindsight it all seems to be so clear/ how could you know it would take all you are to see/ what you are and how it's all meant to be And oh, nobody can tell you it's not real/ noone can see what your eyes can see/ what you are, and how it's all meant to be
10.
Love Me 02:58
Treat me like a fool, treat me mean and cruel, but love me/ break my faithful heart, tear it all apart, but love me If you ever go darling I'll be oh so lonely I'd be sad and blue cryin' over you dear only I would beg and steal just to feel your heart beating close to mine If you ever go darling I'll be oh so lonely I'd be sad and blue cryin' over you dear only I would beg and steal just to feel your heart beating close to mine Every night I pray to the stars that shine above me/ down upon my knees, all I ask is please, please love me Oh yeah

about

Astronauto Valley Stream, New York

The music of Astronauto is a sound as peaceful as it is jarring. Introspective folk realism collides head on with expansive electronic dreamscapes, using on the way everything from acoustic guitars to fuzz basses, analog synths to manipulated paint cans. ... more
