Anywhere

You see it’s rather simple
When you look from afar
You see things the way that they are
But are we ever able
To let it all be
When nothing we know sets us free
Don’t stop
We really don’t care
Just take us anywhere
Don’t stop
Until we are there
Just take us anywhere
We could have been famous
Or happy by now
We’re stuck with ourselves anyhow
Pretend it’s really simple
Just pack up and leave
Leave everything we believed
You see it’s rather simple
Pretend it’s really simple

Make Me Beg
03:15
|
|||
|
Are we even growing up
Or are we only growing old
Like the ticking of a clock
Rewind if you don’t want it to stop
We carry water to the sea
But it is not in vain
If one day we can dance in the rain
One day we can dance in the rain
Are you going to make me beg?
Just because you taught me how to kneel
That’s alright I know exactly how you feel
Alright, I know exactly how you feel
Or are you going to tell me it’s not what it seems?
And that we’re truly living a dream?
If only I’d believe in fate
And good things come to those who wait
Then maybe I would fall asleep
I’m longing like a lion counting sheep
Longing like a lion counting sleep

Too Fast!
03:14
|
|||
|
I’ve been running on
For some time
You know the deal
Smiling on the front page
Sleeping in the backstage
Keeping it real
I’ve been rushing on a dime
I like how it feels
When I’m moving much too fast
I’ve been moving much too fast
You are something else
I can tell
Or so it seems
Reading ‘till the back page
Never standing front stage
Swimming upstream
Can you show me how to slow down
And look around
I’ve been moving much too fast
And I realise at last
I’ve been moving much too fast
Now my future present past
I’ve been moving much too fast
For all the wine we didn’t share
For every kiss that I forgot
And you tell me not to regret
All the time
That I’ve been moving much too fast

Born in '23

He paints his peaceful town
As the sun goes down for a nap
He finished top of his class
Summer months have passed in a blink
Now they tell him he doesn’t have a choice
So his future is fading
Making way for quick goodbyes
But he’s lost his voice
Him and his friends on a train to Longmoore
Playing cards while nervously laughing knowing this is it
Could have been you
Could have been me
Could have been born in ‘23
What do you know
What to believe
Could have been born in ‘23
Such a quiet night
Just does not feel right on patrol
Then a pair of eyes
Filled with tears of fright in the dark
And they told him he doesn’t have a choice
It’s you or him and he has to pull the trigger now

Why Would I?
03:24
|
|||
|
With my mind of love
And with your heart of stone
Hey there little birdie
I could kill you right now
With a twist of my hand
Tell me why would I
Why would I not?
Hey there little birdie
I didn’t kill you this time
But next time I will

Any Blink Now
02:30
|

|
I’ve been thinking for a while
What if life is just a dream
And I’ll wake up with a smile
“That was wonderful” I’ll whisper
As I stretch and yawn
And the dream slowly fades into dawn
And I’ll say that the dream seemed so real
All the family I had and the way they made me feel
I had friends and thoughts and I kissed a girl or two
So worried all the time about the things I had to do
But then I’ll see
All those worries didn’t make a better me
I could wake up any blink now
And then I’ll see
All those worries didn't make a better me

In While I Out
02:47
|
|||
|
A good start will take us halfway there
A twitch in my * I can feel my heart beat
A fair part is to try to be aware
You don’t have to talk right on the down beat
Breathe baby breathe
A cool touch, my earring on my cheek
Let’s put in the work to get it working
I won’t judge if you don't know how to speak
Let us embrace and start learning
Breathe baby breathe baby
In while I out
Out while I in
A long long look never turns into a stare
Does it even matter if we get there?
It’s so good, it’s better then the book
It doesn’t even matter if we get there

7 Little Words
03:13
|
|||
|
There must be something in the air
I think about you all the time
I will hold you closer than close
Or as close as you’d desire
A single touch is like a flair
Through my veins and down my spine
Shivers from my head to my toes
Seven little words that you want me to say
You can call me day and night
It is all going to be ok
Take a cab to the closest airport
French kiss until our lips go numb
It is all going to be alright
I will love you just the same
You know you have my full support
These are just seven little words that you want me to say

Coulda Woulda Shoulda

We could be
Dreamers, bankers, ballet dancers, gangsters
Poets, silent, NASCAR drivers, pranksters
Coulda woulda shoulda
We could be
Married, liars, horny minors, virgins
Famous, Beatles, Daniel Johnston, DJ’s
We could be
Wireless, poison, battery powered, stop motion
Drunk, benchmarks, in Ciao Lucifer, mud sharks

Chance
I’m on the up and up and this is just the start
My bloodline’s up point five percent in every chart
Soon I’ll figure out just what I want to be
Soon I’ll figure out just what I want you’ll see
Chance has nothing to do with it
I knew a guy who knew a guy who knew a guy
Who owned point five percent of everything you eye
He knew a guy who knew a guy who owned a guy
Who knows what I alone could own without that guy
I am meant to be that guy
Step right up and claim my prize
Do I want to be that guy?

Replace You
03:31
|

|
Changing my clothes
Nothing has changed
Sweet Augustine
A different approach
I like you estranged
Why are they so mean?
No matter what they say
I love that look on your face
I hope you stay that way
Like you’ve been smiling for days
There is no one to replace you
What do you mean?
“What does it mean?”
We’re just having fun
Shine like the sun
Lost in a dream
Caught in-between

Pay Back What You Owe

You’ve got to pay back what you owe
Not to me but for yourself
