Moonstruck 03:45
I’m sick Dizzy Floating ‘round That same old game you play I’m bruised Falling down Picking scabs That just won’t bleed away I’m lost Desert highway Cruising ‘round Those same old towns I’ve been I’m gone Lost my head Saying things That just don’t speak to me Silently Watch me burn And let the flood (silently) Wash it all away The flood (watch me burn) Wash it all away The flood (silently) Wash it all away The flood (watch me burn) Wash it all away Reborn New day rising Morning sun Upon the evening rain

Storyteller 03:19
Crawl in Take your place Fall into my cage of wisdom Take note Heed my offer Ain't no devil near to fear of Same old tired story Etched upon the minds eye All told over a glass of wine Blood red Hint of earth All consuming warmth of ages Same old tired story Etched upon the minds eye All told over a glass of wine Always the same outcome No matter what the outburst I’m the storyteller You’re the same old brick wall Same old tired story Etched upon the minds eye All told over a glass of wine

Lift the veil from your eyes Peel this mask off my face Don't you look so surprised You're disappointed what a shame I will meet you on the darkest side of me From within my mountain's keep Tragic eyes choose what they see Daring gentleman bare their teeth Standing naked by the shore True and mask-less evermore I will meet you on the darkest side of me From within my mountain's keep From within my mountain's keep From within my mountain's keep Humor me my friend Why don't you gently raise your head Remove the guise Reveal your olive tinted porcelain

The rules were written upon the sand Or perhaps it was a poem The tide is turning under blood red moon Hear the trees and forest moan The iron fortress was overthrown Women, children, house and home And not a whisper could be heard Not a soul besides my own The commoners have come and gone I held their hope within my hand The conquerors have bled me dry The stories written in the sand My foes are slain Strewn across this land Among the ruin and debris Forgotten treasures lay buried deep Dug up and waiting for a key My lover’s lost among the beasts and ghouls Her eyes I fear I may not see The commoners have come and gone I held their hope within my hand The conquerors have bled me dry The stories written in the sand The commoners have come and gone I held their hope within my hand The conquerors have bled me dry The stories written in the sand The commoners have come and gone I held their hope within my hand The conquerors have bled me dry The stories written in the sand The stories written in the sand The stories written in the sand

No Consent 03:39
You know I ain't no Jesus But that don't mean I'll get you off like this  You smash my head into floor While you unleash your beast upon my whip No sir I do not consent No sir I do not I’ve seen you kill my brothers I know you killed my friends 12 sleeps with their mothers You know I don’t consent No sir I do not consent No sir I do not consent No sir I do not consent No sir I don’t give my No sir I do not con No sir I don’t give my No sir I do not consent Flashing lights blue and red In your rear view mirror Better quit while you're ahead boy Do you know what you fear? For if you flee Then it's on me To shoot you down With glee No consent

about

Overdrive Orchestra’s fourth studio record 'Restless Star' is, quite simply, a fever dream. Touching on the cyclical nature of life and different forms of death - lost loved ones, past lives, ego death - the album chronicles the process of letting go and being true to one’s beliefs. From breaking old habits that no longer serve us, to removing the many faces we wear, and acknowledging the mental health struggles that stem from modern existence. 'Restless Star' encourages the listener to rise above the haze of daily life and rediscover their sense of self.
