Bragging or Complaining
04:03

A fair view
I have of you
When you talk
I'm smiling, but I can't tell
So, tell me
Are you bragging or complaining?
Seemingly
Punk is dead and Elvis is alive
My oh my
The heart tells the brain, "Let's act a fool"
And you do the things you thought you'd never do
So, tell me
Are you bragging or complaining?

To the Moon
05:01
|
|||
|
The wind blows cold and tightens my skin,
I'm void of rational reasoning
(pre chorus)
Watch out
I'm burning and I'm fueled with fire
Get down
Those flames will only take me higher
Oh no
I'm coming and I've got something to say
(chorus)
I'll take you all over the world, just to show you how to live
I'll fly you to the moon and back again
Though tragic it may be to see the end
Don't pretend.
The seasons change what doesn't leave hangs on
You never meant to hurt anyone
(pre chorus)
(chorus)
(chorus)
We all wanna, realize
The dreams we dreamt of, all our lives
Fame and fortune, sex appeal
And we wont stop no, until its real

Elevate
05:23
|
|||
|
Now is the start
So open your heart to the
New way of life
Forgive your sins and
Let your love in, it's an
Old love. Bold love.
Bold as the sun that
Moves everyone, headed
For the jungle
Strangest of things
Things you wouldn't believe
If you'd only slow down
This is our time
Don't let it waste
Rise above, girl,
It won't take long
To Elevate
How far to go, but it's
Not for now
Close your eyes girl
And don't ask why
I'll show you how
Now is the time
So make up your mind
While I hope you will stay
Don't concern yourself
With things upon your shelves
Well they'll get you nowhere
Take you from here
Where there's no more fear
Except fear in itself
Closed are your eyes, though
Soon you will find, that the
Light shines through them
This is our time
Don't let it waste
Rise above, girl,
It won't take long
To Elevate
How far to go, but it's
Not for now
Close your eyes girl
And don't ask why
I'll show you how
I'm feeling much better now
Just to know that you're around
I'm feeling to safe and sound
Feet barely touch the ground
So high

Gold as the Sun
04:47
|
|||
|
We built a pyramid from what was left of the Egyptians
In tune with sand, under construction of the hand with one eye
Looking both ways, every view is something new to build a few for you and all the rest
Almost as gold as the sun
Almost as gold as the sun
We built a sky-scraper, but the sky can't take much more
Connected by glass and steal to the ocean floor
The clouds move in
The lamp posts dim
We keep moving up
The wheels continue to spin
Almost as gold as the sun
Almost as gold as the sun

Underground
03:47
|
|||
|
Broken Down
They build their towns
Lanterns keep their sights, but
Only at their arms width
The city that they're building
Up above
The others lead
A life that's bright and always free
Down Below is a different scene
In a society
Underground
Safe and Sound
Underground
Safe and Sound
The air is thin, it's much to dark to see
These prison walls were made when were were free
Go on leaving life so carelessly,
But it's not so bad
Underground
Safe and Sound
Underground
Safe and Sound

Undying
03:10
|

|
Caught it from you, this burning desire to taste your flesh
I know you felt it to, I saw you run away just like the rest
Oh, I feel the hunger taking over
Oh, I watched that flame turn into smolder
(chorus)
All I can see, are roves of monsters littering our streets yeah
All I can do, is join the heard heading straight for you girl
The night grows so cold, and all I want is you back in these arms
Where did you go, all I have left of you are these scars
Oh, I feel the hunger taking over
Oh I watched that flame turn into smolder
(chorus)

Not the Only One
03:21
|
|||
|
Take this our time, time to show the people, that we're not done.
Open your mind, cause im coming in yeah.
And I, oh I, oh im not the only one
(chorus)
The love I feel is indescribable
When fading away seemed so logical
I'll take your hand in mine and wont let go
Anybody cut to a million pieces
Knows it's no fun
Maybe you'd say, anything just to stay
And you, oh you, oh you're not the only one
(chorus)
Day by day, hour by hour, the clock ticks down more
Anyway, anyhow, I hit the floor
Oh

Stroke of Luck
04:38
|
|||
|
Sailing away
Everyday
From the shore
We can't see the land
There isn't a plan
Anymore
We're sailing, sailing all together
We're sailing, sailing all together
On a stroke of luck
It's strange to say
I've never felt this way
Before
We can't stop, stop, stop, ever now
The current's pulling us in
Either, or
I'm never sure
On Sometimes Island
We're sailing, sailing all together
On a stroke of luck
On a stroke of luck
If my baby were a car, she'd be an El Camino
With a toxin free engine and a paint job like a torpedo
If my baby were a color, she'd be aqua marine
And shine through the ocean as the sea horses sing

Living
04:41

You got your feet on the table
A bucket full of ice
Rings on your fingers
And you caught yourself
Living
Living
Living
Hey! Not even close to over
Looking down through the glass ceiling
You believe that you're not dreaming
Hey! Not even close to over
Swimming in a bath tub full of champagne
Sink or swim, man. It's no damn thing
Hey! Not even close to over
Down the red carpet for a stroll
There's nobody that we owe
Hey! Now close the door behind you
Give me my money back
Give me my money back
Give me my money back
Through that lens
You see reflections of
A mouthful of bullets
And you know what you're
Missing
Missing
Missing
Hey! Now close the door behind you
Give me my money back
Give me my money back
Give me my money back

Vagrant Heart
03:03
|
|||
|
Your eyes are wide, you look around and yet you see nothing
So you decide to walk away
Woah it's not right, for you to leave without saying a thing
Just for one night well I hope you'll stay
Oh
(chorus)
Find your counterpart
Your vagrant heart,
Your vagrant heart
It's time to depart
Your vagrant heart
Your vagrant heart
If you should go, take this here piece of me with you
I want you to know that I am there
It just goes to show, your vagrant heart always seems to beat true
I want you to know that I don't care
(chorus)
Why won't you stay
You're fading away
I'm so afraid
Why wont you stay
You're fading away
I'm so afraid
You're fading away
I'm so afraid
Fading away
I'm so afraid
You're fading, fading
(chorus)

Photography
04:46
|

|
We live in photography
And it's been entrapping me
I see it all in the water
It stares right back
I see it all in the water
It stares right back
Someday
I know a little place south of desire
It won't take long to conspire
And steal away
I want to stay here with you
Identity
Stealing its own finger prints
Cut up boy kick that blood clot around
Taste whatever's out of bounds
Young and blind
We don't mind
Someday
I know a little place south of desire
It won't take long to conspire
And steal away
I want to stay here with you
I know a little place south of desire
It won't take long to conspire
And steal away
I want to stay here with you

My teacher come to me, said 1 plus 2 makes 3
But I never really liked that stuff
We started acting crazy, and teacher got real angry
Recess couldn't come soon enough
I'll be feeling better, when we play house together
Do some finger painting
School is such a bummer, I can't hold out till summer
I'll ride my bicycle everyday
My teacher come to me
"Do you want your degree?"
I didn't know just what to say
I'll be feeling better
Let's get a house together
I've been falling for ya
I'm older now
Been thinking how
I got to be the man that I am
No certainty
But I still believe
I'm going to spread this love the best I can
Everyday
Everyday
(Verse 2)
Oh I still remember, when we played house together
Now it seems so long ago
We had fun in the sun, when we were little ones
Now I got some kids of my own
I'll be feeling better
We got a house together
I've been falling for ya
Help me!
I've fallen and I can't get up
Help me!
Getting closer to that bright, white light
Help me!
The nurse is stealing my shoes at night
Help me!
Sippin' on gin and prune juice
Help me!
I want a pill that makes me feel so…
Help me!
V-I-A-G-R-A-A-A
HELP ME!!!
