Moon Howls 02:17
lyrics
buy track
Wind blows; children cry The moon howls and so do I Faces smile and the grass grows The whole world turns and no one knows Deeper than the deepest sea, and brighter than its bluest hue you seem to me Something stirs within my soul today Waves crash; ships set sail The clouds sit still, thin and pale Dreams fly by as you sigh And kits outline that turquoise sky Deeper than the deepest sea, and brighter than its bluest hue you seem to me Something stirs within my soul today for me.

Trouble 02:50
lyrics
buy track
People looking for your time Voices singing someone else's song tonight Trouble climbing up the stairs Mind your manners kid; Don't they tell you- Tell you that it's impolite to stare? Though I guess no one really cares 'cause They have steel They have stone They've got flesh and blood and bone And they know that it's coming to an end Reason looking through her eyes Voices sing the songs of severance tonight Trouble climbing up the stairs Mind your manners kid; Don't they tell you - Tell you that it's impolite to stare? Though I guess no one really cares 'cause They have steel They have stone They've got flesh and blood and bone And they know that it's coming to an end Will you reap all you've sown Cast into the great unknown Will you wander Will you wish you had a bed?

The Score 03:50
lyrics

So confess, I know it's true All that time you said you'd lose With me, believing every word you heard I confess, I knew it too. All that sorrow left inside your mind And not a single thing to do So if you find yourself Finding time to spend with me I do believe you should Come away with me into the mountains Come away into the blue Lay me down in fields of grass Feel my pulse and just relax Lay me down right next to you Now I guess I'll sing the blues Half a bed that's left to use And never knowing whose is whose to lose So if you find yourself Finding time to spend with me I do believe you should Come away with me into the mountains Come away into the blue Lay me down in fields of grass Feel my pulse and just relax Lay me down right next to you Come away with me into the mountains Come away into the blue Lay me down in fields of grass Feel my pulse and just relax Lay me down right next to you Well I've been there once before And I can tell you that the score Doesn't come out even But it comes out right.

Battlefield 03:24
lyrics
buy track
Reporting for duty sir It's been too long since I've seen the war And I'm ready again Reporting for duty sir it's been too long since I've seen the war And I'm already gone Come to me in fits of sleep Fever dreams keep lifting me away, Away, away To the battlefield again All again I'm putting on boots and furs It's much too cold to plot the course alone And I'm freezing in my bones I'm trying to beat these birds around the bush Just until the dawn and it's Sunrise too soon, too soon Come to me in fits of sleep Androids dream of electric sheep and rage Away, away On the battlefield again, again, again, all again So many days Spent in a haze So many nights Never a fight Biding your time Plotting your crimes For the battlefield again All again Reporting for duty sir It's been too long since I've seen the war And I'm sleeping tight at night Reporting for duty sir It's been too long since I've seen the war And I'm already gone

On the Street Tonight 03:54
lyrics
buy track
City streets all filled with smoke and sweat and dust Empty eyes locked into place and rusted shut If everyone can see them, why does not a soul speak up? Maybe it's because... All this time we've been thinking Stuck inside of our own heads All this time we've been drinking Raising glasses to the dead Don't say you know the way To something better than today Don't wish away your life You've only got this one shot to make it right Don't say you know the way To something better than today City streets all filled with neon lights and lust Hungry mouths locked into place and rusted shut If everyone can see them, why does not a soul speak up? Maybe it's because... All this time we've been thinking Stuck inside the pages of a book All this time we've been drinking I think it's time you take a look Don't say you know the way To something better than today Don't wish away your life You've only got this one shot to make it right Don't say you know the way To something better than today Is anybody hearing the sounds On the street tonight?' Is anybody listening in uptown? Is anybody hearing the shouts On the street tonight? Is anybody listening in? I think we're going down Don't say you know the way To something better than today Don't wish away your life You've only got this one shot to make it right Don't say you know the way To something better than today

If 03:11
lyrics

If you could tell me which way to go Then I would follow you to the end of the road If you could point me in the general direction Then I would listen close to the end of our connection But I won't, 'cause I don't think you can And I won't. I won't be part of that plan If you would play me just another tune or two Then I would sit right here and I'd hear you through If you would love me for a moment more tonight Then I'd forget myself and I'd feel alright But I won't, 'cause I don't think you will And I won't, I won't swallow your pill, no If you could tell me now which way to go Then I would follow you to the end of the road If you could point me in the general direction Then I would listen close to the end of our connection But I won't, 'cause I don't think you can And I won't. I won't be part of that plan No I won't, 'cause I don't think you will And I won't, I won't swallow your pill

For Today 02:51
lyrics
buy track
Hair like fire and a smile that kills This girl's got a voice like glass That's sure to give you chills With words to soothe your broken mind Or is it hers she's minding all the time? Now I've gone and spilled it all Exactly why I can't recall And she says That's okay, Just love me for today And I'll love you back But not in the same way Not afraid to love not afraid to cry She says one day, she also wants to die In touch with what's inside her head Still angry with her father for the things he never said Now she's gone and spilled it all Exactly why I can't recall And she says That's okay, Just love me for today And I'll love you back But not in the same way She says she gives him space to roam The only home he's ever claimed to know Except the streets and city lights But even they get much too bright sometimes at night Now we're open and exposed Stripped ourselves down to the marrow of our bones And we found that what's inside And this comes as no surprise Was much easier to take than to put it back She still says That's okay, Just love me for today And I'll love you back But not in the same way

Sit Think and Stare 02:36
lyrics

Smell the flowers Kiss your girl Because the world Has never felt so real Walk the path Smile at last Let time move your mind Run your fingers Through my hair Ask a question Stay a while Sit think and stare When we have arrived at the other side Of time Will you be mine? Don't yell; it's not your style Softer words Remember Being a child When we have arrived at the other side Of time Will you be mine?

Green and Blue 02:53
lyrics

See you in my wildest dreams They come and go like movie screens Afternoon - we wake up to a song Somehow missed the morning birds at dawn Flying low so as not to make a sound Throw me down and now I hit the ground Coming to, I'm without you The afternoon's a blur Making coffee, now I'm off to work No time to check my bed for her Walking home I might have seen your face That can't be right it's much too out of place All the while I couldn't make a sound Throw it down and now I hit the ground See you in my wildest dreams You come to me so real it seems Lie with me in fields of green and blue Limitless, there's nothing we can't do Fabricate a city overnight Just for us to roam, no end in sight
