Over It
03:08

Lift off Valentine
False sense, Loser mind
Sore throat, pass me a grenade
Slow down, count the lines
Soda fountain, fire fly
Popping all around
While you bake
Save it with the tropical forest of band aid
Hopping on the wagon while we drag a dying horse around
Down my old town people talk in circles
Out here in angles oblong
Are you over it?
Are over those
Butchers with the golden guns
All I know there are lessons to behold
In the back of every ambulance
Fox hole peep a man
Live from a garbage can
Streamed from the
Trash heap of a day
Water and wine harder to find
Palm trees from the other side
Bottomed out, shoveled by rakes
Are you over it now?
Bury the salt in the soil
Bad news for the garden
Are you over it now?
Sawmill shred dust for proof
Gone without a warning
Are you over over it now?
Go to bed, feather.
Your head will be there
by your side
Don’t ya see it
don’t ya, don’t ya?

Adding It Up
03:18
|
|||
Free out the door and then
All that you try there's
no going back
We almost found out
Or did we know what we wanted
all along
These open sores agape
Deal with the holes you make
How do you know that
one and one make two?
How do you know they don't?
Point of view
How do you know,
do you know we're
not the same?
Adding it up, no following through
Adding it up, no following through
How do you know?
Do you know what will never do?
Adding it up, no following through
Adding it up, no following through

Modern Living

Modern living this what I find
While we're getting through it
Out for business while we take our time
Hiding from all the rules
Hear em coming from a mile away
Crutch in the arm, cross in the shoes
All of it got me oh so tired
Don't wake me up before noon
I'm not selling myself out while were paying the dues
Take it all, take it all, take it all away
I don't care I'll be good
Modern living this is what I find
While I'm getting confused
Hard to listen to the voice of time
In the space it consumes
Another lap, another round, ok
Once in a while making it through
All the bits got me oh so tired
Don't wake me up before noon
I'm not selling myself out while were paying the dues
Take it all, take it all, take it all away
I don't care I'll be good
Forever here and now
One minute there and gone
You never know which side you landed on
Might take a miracle
To stop the spinning
From dragging you down
Calling you back but
I'm not selling myself out while were paying the dues
Take it all, take it all, take it all away
I don't care I'll be good
Take it all, take it all, take it all away

Where We Belong
03:19
|
|||
No worries in sight
We're golden
Far beyond the light of day
Arm yourself for when you are alone
I'll be by your side, you're ok
No worries, I'll take care of you
I won't let go if you're still there too
We are, we are so close
We are, we are almost there
Almost where we belong
Make a list of all those hurdles
On the wall, knock it down
Burn 'em all to nothing more
Than bits in a pile
If you fall down, get right up then
Stumble round and back again
Look me up if you wanna
No worries, I'll take care of you
I won't let go if you're still there too
We are, we are so close
We are, we are almost there
Almost where we belong
No worries, take care
I won't let go if you're still there
I'm holding on, on, on
I'm still holding on
I won't let go if you're still there

Lesson Learned
03:41
|
|||
Doors are opening daily
Open all night
To things you do not know
So you learn them today
Yeah so, I got your message real good
Let on and on you try
To occupy
My time and space
Lesson learned I’ll always be the same
Sing to me the sound of love again

Wire
03:20
|

Out on the wire
Birds taking flight
I remember running
Falling faster
Cover me I’m going under
Hang on little one
Don’t you weep
Out on the wire
Hangmen are dying
Are they really meant
For that ending
Of hope
Watchful eye
Fault or slumber
Trust the moment
To be free
Out on the wire
We are all trying
Out on the wire
Part of a greater sum
Hold on you’re not alone
Hold on you’re not alone
Hold on tonight
You know that you’re
Not alone
Out on the wire
Falling by design
Out on the wire
Oh oh we’re trying
Hold on you’re not alone
Hold on you’re not alone
Hold on tonight
You know that you’re
Not alone

Wrapped Up
03:05
|
|||
Out there wasting all your life
just waiting on something new
but it's so hard to break through
Where's the joy in moving from
a phase to the next you're running around
in a rat race bringing you down
You wanna feel something
feel something but you just don't
cause we're all so wrapped up
Oh, let go of that stuff
we're so wrapped up in nothing
You use so much of your energy
chasing down the vision they sell
it's a game that you play so well
You wanna feel something
feel something but you just don't
cause we're all so wrapped up
Oh, let go of it now
we're so wrapped up in nothing
Fast city, slow town
they're so wrapped up in nothing
