Leap
by Rachel Oto
Stories are how we know this is
As far as the world goes
Let's make
A grand escape
Let's plant our left feet and push with
All force over the darkness
Step into the land we hope is
Beyond the rules
Beyond the rules they lay
I'll be a fool
I'll be a fool and push the boundaries
They're standing at the brink
We're further than the world thinks exists
Oh, I insist
We are out of their earthly reach
Here comes eternity
And all they've dreamed
And all we've seen by
Breaking the rules
Breaking the rules they lay
Breaking the rules
Breaking the rules they lay
I'll be a fool
I'll be a fool
I'll be a fool, break all the rules
And push the boundaries
Oh, how they fear the leap
Between the warmth of safety
And the sting of maybe
Oh, how they fear the deep
Dark abyss that keeps you and me
Far from everything they seem to
Stories
Stories are
Stories
Stories are all they know

The Way We Are
by Rachel Oto
Clockwork counting the notches
Numbered nicks in our spines
Hope the mechanisms makes our souls rise
Buttons trigger each motion
Tingles are tied up in wires
Flip of the switch and we hit all the marks on the line
But don't say we are the way we are
Don't say we are the way we are
Don't say we are the way we are
Don't say
Tracks lead us to our stations
Fuel us up or we die
Tick of the tape fills our brains keeps us moving in time
There's not more than the humming
There's not more than the signs
Pull us along, pull us on, pull us through this live
But don't say we are the way we are
Don't say we are the way we are
Don't say we are the way we are
Don't say
We were the diamonds in the sky
We were the dancing of the light
So much has changed with every trial
And how we feel it
Don't say
Don't say we are the way we are
Don't say we are the way we are
We tried so hard and got this far
Don't say

Cornered and Lines
by Rachel Oto
All I see is killing me
All I know are edges that yell this is far as we go
But
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more
All I feel
The cold of the shadows that fall from our wheels
All I hear is,
"Child the wild is something to fear
Keep to the form baby
Keep to the near
But
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more
Keep to your corners and manage your lines
Nothing outside of these parallel sides
So stackable, stackable, laughable, stackable
Stack with the others
So stack-able, stack-able
Keep to your corners and manage your lie
Comfy and cozy with nothing outside
And we're stack-able, stack-able
laughable, trackable
Stack with the others and go, oh
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more
Oh, there must be more

Run
By Rachel Oto
Tales tell of glory
Just beyond the red
Wake my soul again
West winds whisper stories
Drafting me a brand new plan
Find my soul again
Find my soul again
Try my soul again
Away, over, up and out of where I stand
Onward to the end
Darkness, lies and horror
Binding me to what they said
Crack my soul again
Crack the world again
Crash the world again
Away, over, up and out of where I stand
Onward to the end
Away, a way waiting for my feet to land
Onward to the end
And I'll go
Yes, I'll go
Yeah, I'll go
Yes, I'll go
Away, a way waiting for my feet to land
Onward to the end
And I'll go
Yeah, I'll go
Yes, I'll go
Let me go
And I'll go
Yes, I'll go
