-Mortal traffic lights signaling when to stay or go

+# I’m in Your Mind by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
+Everybody's lazy when they're tired
+
+# Straws In The Wind by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
+Mindful of the weary inkling that is lurking
+Mortal traffic lights signaling when to stay or go
+
+# Automation by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
+Cyber surgeon, Javascript person
+
+# Gilgamesh by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
+Bone-dried swamplands swallow me
+House of dust, land of bone
+I ate dirt, I drank stone
+Come on, snake, punish me
+
+# The Dripping Tap by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
+Drip, drip from the tap, don't slip on the drip
+
+# Face to Face by Daft Punk
 It's amazing what you'll find face to face
 It's not hard to go the distance / When you finally get involved face to face
+
+# Touch by Daft Punk
 A tourist in a dream / A visitor, it seems / A half-forgotten song / Where do I belong?
+
+# Magenta Mountian by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
 What do you mean ... You can't see it?
 I don't believe you / your eyes deceive you / better check yourself in
 You will say I'm crazy / I will go on my way 'cause it's what I need
 I'd cross a thousand seas just to prove I'm not mad
 I thought I saw a statue blink, and a bird with no head, Land on a golden thread, I rub my eyes, What am I saying? There's nothing there

+# Armor-clad Faith by NAOKI, Arc System Works
 I'm a fool, I know nothing / I take the role of a silly clown
 All I do is embrace the wounded soul
+
+# Love the Subhuman Self by AISHA, Jamison Boaz, Arc System Works (Guilty Gear Strive)
 So carry on, love the subhuman self
 Break yourself inside out, she told me
+
+# Symphony by NAOKI, Arc System Works (Guilty Gear Strive)
 We're just a quirky note in the symphony
+
+# White Whale by Shadow Academy
 So, silent tide / Tell me which face do I show the world / And which one do I hide?
+
+# Intrasport by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
+Dreams that sew me up like sleeping with a needle
+Those feelings that I had are building up to something
+I feel a schism in the rhythm, now I'm running
+My hair is liquifying
+My taste buds are igniting
