It's the way
03:38

It's the way,
It's the way we kill the silence
That makes us turn to violence
It's the time that makes us fly
to a place we can't decide
It's the way we kill ourselves again
It's the way we bring the past to life
It's the way
It's the way we clear our our heads
that leave our words unsaid
It's hard to keep within
These thoughts that make us sin
The wind keeps blowing on
As sure as I'm keeping strong
It's the time that makes us fly
To a place we can't decide

Sink beyond the brink
03:47
|
|||
|
Take a step back
Let it sink in
Around the brink
Is where I'm dancing
I've got nothing left to say
Left, right, left, right
Tie your screw
I've got nothing left to say
Left, right, left, right
Get it tight
Take a step back
Let it sink in
There's nothing sacred
To this arrangement
There's nothing secret
To this achievement
Take a step back
Let it sink in
Put your hands up
Clench it tight
Shake your fists
Cold blood & spit

One down
03:12
|
|||
|
Drag your fingers up & down the trigger
Swallow it down, I can keep a secret
Another, another, another, another one down!
Drag your fears deep into the fire
Feel the heat, testing all the wires
Another, another, another one down

Majority crumbles
03:34
|
|||
|
Running around, people shouting aloud
"We'll never make it! We'll never make it!"
Head in the clouds, heaven tumblin' down
"Who there will save me? Who there will save me?"
Stumblin' down, all these troubles around
"We'll never make it! We'll never make it!"
Leader step down, not the one we allowed
"Who there will save me? Who there will save me?"
Rumblin' sound as it's crumblin' down
"I think we'll make it! I think we'll make it!"
Rain on the ground, things are comin' around
"I think we made it! I think we made it!"

Unacceptable
03:13
|
|||
|
Chasing down the scarecrow,
running on the tacks,
leaving on a railroad,
never know it you're coming back
It's unacceptable
Counting down to midnight,
adding all the stars,
staring at the moonlight,
never know if you're gonna show
It's unacceptable
Once you're whole you're never coming home
Once you crack, you'll be crawling back
Scratch me on the surface,
show me some skin,
you're making me nervous,
never know what you're gonna show
It's unacceptable
Tickle my fancy,
give me some love,
never mind the dancing,
never know when you're gonna blow
It's unacceptable

Spinning away
03:07

|
I'm just waiting for your call
Baby said, baby said, wave your paw
I'm just waiting for your call
Let's go honey, let's scratch & claw
Baby said, baby said, go outside
I get judged for a victimless crime
Baby said, baby said, take a walk
Let's go honey let's have a ball
I'm just waiting for your call
Baby said, baby said, give me more
I'm just waiting for your call
Let's go honey, let's paint the walls
The world keeps spinning
The world keeps spinning away...
From you
I'm just waiting for your call
Baby said, baby said, lock the door
I'm just waiting for your call
Let's go honey let's start to crawl

Fifteen seconds
04:06
|
|||
|
Get off the leash & run to the door
Open up the package that's stuck on the floor
You want to, you need to, tear it apart
Resisting all the pleasures that lay in your heart
Get on your knees & thank the stars
Accept the bigger picture displayed in the cards
You want to, you need to, shake it away
No matter what you do you can't make me stay
I know it's not a perfect time & space
I know it's not a perfect time of day
I know it's not a perfect, time & place
But fifteen seconds could change your life
Get off the floor & into the flood
Wash away the insects, the dirt & the mud
You want to, you need to see it go by
It's not that easy even if you try

Really digging my grave
03:56
|
|||
|
I wake up early with the living dead
I'm digging my grave, I'm digging my grave
There's no beauty in the sunrise
If you see it every fucking time
Once before I saw a light
Once again no end in sight
Everyday I end up feeling this way
I'm digging my grave, really digging my grave
Existence laced with dirty fingertips
Resistance has turned to shit
Once before I saw a light
Once again no end in sight
Don't take it out on me!
Gotta get out of this fucking place!
Everyday I end up feeling this way
I'm digging my grave, really digging my grave
Existence laced with dirty fingerprints
Resistance has turned to shit

Bipolar piranha
03:43
|
|||
|
Like it or not I'm here to stay
You can't wish me away
Colouring books, from black to blue
Opposites attract when it comes to you
I don't believe a word you say
I can't compete with the games you play
I don't mean...I don't mean to bother you
I don't care...I don't care if you want me too
Like it or not, I'm leaving this place
Stop the time you waste
Leave a remark way back at the start
Much more meaningful in the dark
I don't believe a word you say
I can't compete with the games you play
I don't mean...I don't mean to bother you
I don't care...I don't care if you want me too
I don't care what you want

Holding
02:49
|
|||
|
Painted on windows of see-through glass
What a life of enterprise
Moods in the air of tainted mass
No remorse to endorse
Do we have a problem now?
Enjoy the life you've chosen
Has the solution gone?
Enjoy that heart you're holding
Beat-up meetings of secret minds
What a time to be alive
Tension in the wind of relentless crimes
No relief for a dirty thief

Anywhere but home
04:03
|

|
I hit the road, because there's nothing to hide
I hit the road, because there's nothing to find
I hit the road, because you're not alone
I hit the road, because it's made of stone
I hit the road & go anywhere but home

Caution Boy Pretoria, South Africa
Somewhere between the highway & the railroads of the Moot (Pretoria, South Africa), smothered by its suburban industrial
coma, came a one man army (Andi Cappo), filled with punk screams, stoner basslines, pop grooves & screeching guitars.
The band now consists of Treveshan Pather (bass), Archie Kinnon (drums) & Andi Cappo (vocals & guitar).
