Under You 06:04
As I stand here On the land here I am under Under you Under you Under you And all my interruptions They are gone They are gone They are gone And I know beneath the waves And I’ve seen behind the scenes Yes I know I see the barcodes But I can’t see what’s in your heart What’s in your heart Dig me down Where the starfish lay Upon the ocean’s ground Even after the light from up above Has faded away

Look around in the dark hallways And I’m flying so low I look around in the dark hallways And I know I’m flying so low I’m flying so low I’m flying so low Follow the earth men They try and get in my door I can see their faces Holler out Their teeth show But I know I can’t stop it And it’s all up for grabs I’m flying so low I’m flying so low I’m flying so low I’m flying so low The mountains rise and I fall Into the ocean The monsters know That I don’t got my potion I try to run but I know it’s almost time so I fall and crumble I don’t have no place to go I’m flying so low I just wanna come back now I’m flying so low Why don’t you let me come back now I’m crying on the stage Please don’t forget me

Like A Box 05:09
Think not thoughts that get caught in a web Yeah not lost like an albatross over the air Don’t wait lie straight please wear it to death Transport through a tube to a cube it’s a box Like a box so clean that minimalistic On a flat surface that is so realistic Like a box so clean that minimalistic On a flat surface that is so realistic Don’t squint don’t frown don’t laugh don’t cry Get hints from sound don’t ask me why Say yes or no stop stop and don’t go No please no thanks one level one rank Like a box so clean that minimalistic On a flat surface that is so realistic Like a box so clean that minimalistic On a flat surface that is so realistic That is so realistic That is so realistic Let’s walk where to there’s nothing to do Stand straight integrate don’t bend don’t break In the sky in the May Need a drone for your sake No love no hate One position won’t shake All smooth and no rocks That’s a that’s another box All smooth no rocks That’s a that’s another box Like a box so clean that minimalistic On a flat surface that is so realistic Like a box so clean that minimalistic On a flat surface that is so realistic

Lust 06:47
I am sitting here on this stoop Talking right to you Where that is I am sitting here and have been since Three eleven this morning Yes I have I had to make myself some tea Cause I just could not sleep Staring at the cat You know my soul Kitty kitty Lust it got me again Lust it got me again No indeed Yes it did Those girls on those movie screens I imagine how they laugh Oh Smiling at me It’s written all over their faces Trying to make me feel Just like I was a disgrace Oh lust why don’t you leave me alone Why don’t you leave me alone Leave me alone Keep me awake at night And don’t put me back to sleep Make me feel like I’m alright Make me feel like a creep It’s been a long long while It’s been a very long time Oh Ever since I was a kid I could not keep my eyes away From the pull I told myself I was alright I told myself I was normal inside Yes I did But everything outside of me would know that I was screwed up and mixed up and confused Oh I begin to feel so violent You’re looking real strong but silent I felt just like a fool Oh lust why don’t you leave me alone Oh lust why don’t you leave me alone Oh lust why don’t you leave me alone Let me go to sleep Oh lust why don’t you leave me alone Let me go to sleep

No Solution 03:05
I wanna say something nice To you I know I lost my wedding ring Because a rock fell loose Now I’ve lost track of everything If I jump in the lake it won’t make it right May a due to pay with all your fright I hold you close in my mind The way to your heart I’ll never find Caught in this dream We come alive Never to find the real life You can tell by my eyes Caught between the truth and lies Oh no solution Oh execution Oh no solution Oh execution

Stay. 06:22
Now you know that I love you And I don’t want to let you down You know I wanna hug you And I don’t want to be too proud You’re the one that I’m looking for You’re the one that I need You’re the one that I want baby Oh you’re the one that I’m looking for You’re the one that I’m looking for So stay with me I want you to stay With me Just stay With me Forever And eternity And eternity I know you hurt I know you cry But I want you to know That I do the same thing babe Oh I do the same thing babe I know you’re looking I know you’re looking for something good But so am I So am I So am I Now just stay Stay with me Forever and eternity I know it seems like I know it seems like Like we’re never gonna get by But I know I know it can change Someday q

Say the words I love you dear Say the words I love you clear Say the words so I can hear I love you dear In my ears I need to know before the night gets cold This afternoon I got my fortune told I been awake alright and I can’t hold This feeling here You just don’t know You think you’re strong But I feel alright Why don’t you let me come and spend the night Oh please don’t run don’t you put up a fight Let’s get out of sight Baby I won’t bite Say the words I love you dear Say the words love you clear Say the words so I can hear I love you dear In my ears I been writing I know my p’s and q’s Let me remove Your hard-worn shoes I promise you that I’ll be cool I’ll be subdued I know you want me to Say the words I love you dear Say the words love you clear Say the words so I can hear I love you dear In my ears In my ears In my ears In my ears In my ears I want you to say I want you to say Say I love you Say I love you I want you to say I love you I love you I love you I love you dear I love you dear In my ears

Lost my mind over this one Lost my mind over that one I cried that was no fun I cried that was no fun Then I wandered in the day That led to wandering in the night I spent my time making phone calls To girls so fine who didn’t want me at all I had all that I needed in my soul I had all that I needed don’t you know Love is all around just open your eyes Love is all around it don’t wear a disguise It don’t wear a disguise No no It don’t wear a disguise So when ordered to just close the door I did go back for more to where I met her before Like seeing the wall and crashing anyway Those haunting words that she said go the fuck away Go the fuck away Go the fuck away I had all that I needed in my soul I had all that I needed don’t you know Love is all around just open your eyes Love is all around it don’t wear a disguise It don’t wear a disguise It don’t wear a disguise

Able To Wait 04:39
Don’t need no self help guide Just to keep me in line Don’t need to rush the tide Cause I’ll be just fine The winds they softly blow Upon my brow And I don’t need to know Any more than I do now Cause I’m able to wait Cause I’m able to wait My aggravations from the gnat-like faces With their scholars education And their hands full of aces They say you better move Or you’re gonna miss your chance It’s the last song of the party So you had better dance But I just stand to the side My song already played The melody still with me So why should I be dismayed Cause I’m able to wait Cause I’m able to wait Cause I’m able to wait Cause I’m able to wait

Survive 04:48
Principalities of man got you down in the mud You’re a single grain of sand so you can’t stand out Misery on every corner looking for handouts You got peoples steady yelling you don’t know what about Just turn your eyes to the sky and remove all doubt If you wanna survive If you wanna survive Cause they’ll eat you alive They’ll eat you alive In your heart you feel you’re right but they tell you you’re wrong The melody you orchestrate don’t go with the song You’re only waiting in vain don’t make a difference how long They tell you get off the stage but you can’t hear the call So stop beating your chest and acting like King Kong If you wanna survive If you wanna survive Cause they’ll eat you alive Cause they’ll eat you alive If you want to survive You got to let it go If you want to survive You got to let it go If you want to survive Let it go If you wanna survive If you want to survive

Start Over 05:24
I know we said it all We said it all Before But I think I wanna start over I think I wanna start over I think I wanna start over With you Said I know what we’ve been through But I think I wanna start over I wanna start over with you baby I’m still holding on I’m still holding on I’m still holding on Holding on to you baby Holding on to you baby I’m still holding on I think I wanna start over Start over Anew Anew Brand new Brand new With you With you

12 Midnight 05:09
The banquets over the ball is done The lights are dim we’re the only ones The stairs flow down to the street from the hall And now it’s time to let your image fall And now it’s time to hear the wind’s faint call And now it’s time to hear the wind’s faint call It’s twelve at midnight No carriage waiting down in front It’s twelve at midnight The night it beckons so let’s just run Let’s just run Let’s just run The banquets over the ball is done The lights are dim we’re the only ones The stairs flow down to the street from the hall And now it’s time to let your image fall And now it’s time to hear the wind’s faint call And now it’s time to hear the wind’s faint call It’s twelve at midnight No carriage waiting down in front It’s twelve at midnight The night it beckons so let’s just run Let’s just run Let’s just run
