These are some of the best, the others can be heard on the compact disc.

| 14. Inhale | No clip available | Pretty song about slowly drowning oneself. Sort of an "underneath II" The lyrics go: "Let me fall asleep underneath the surface tension. Quickly cracking from breath withdrawn from my lungs. Open mouth sings a silent lullabye. It's only water I'll inhale." |
