West Coast Love Song ( featuring Susana Williams ) 05:07
lyrics

West Coast Love Song These haunted streets we knew Empty, wet and bare The dreaming houses few But you’re not anywhere Where are you Where are you now When the west coast night falls When the silent streets call Will you think of me at all Will you think Jericho When the light dies on the bay As the seagulls cry above the waves When the last of the big ships has sailed And the heron has flown away As your angels’ wings sag As they wither and start to drag When your feathers are falling to the ground And there’s no one left around When the leaves blow on the drive As the west end couples pass you by When there’s no one waiting for you at home And you’re utterly alone Will you think of Jericho Will you think of Jericho Will you remember this at all Now the moment’s long gone away And the west coast moon wanes A new heron stands there all alone Where the west coast darkness knows That nothing is what it seems Oh was it all a dream That night at Jericho Where did you go When the west coast night falls When the silent streets call Will you think of me at all Will you think Jericho When the light dies on the bay As the seagulls cry above the waves When the last of the big ships has sailed And the heron has flown away As your angels’ wings sag As they wither and start to drag When your feathers are falling to the ground And there’s no one left around When the leaves blow on the drive As the west end couples pass you by When there’s no one waiting for you at home And you’re utterly alone Will you think of Jericho Will you remember this at all Where are you Where are you now

A.D.D. Here we go cause it’s easy as 1, 2, 3 i don’t know you And you don’t know me But you still think From what you see i’m acting inappropriately But i blame it on the a.d.d. The what? The a.d.d. The what? Blame it on the a.d.d. The what? the what? The a.d.d. The what? Here we go cause it’s High time We found out why i can’t sit still And i won’t deny But it’s not just me It could be you Who knows Maybe you got it too So we blame it on The a.d.d. The what? The a.d.d. The what? Blame it on the a.d.d. The what? the what? The a.d.d. The what? Now we’re turning those Frowns around upside down We may as well laugh Cause we can’t stop now And it’s easy as a, b, c We can’t blame it On too much tv So we blame it on the The a.d.d. The what? The a.d.d. The what? Blame it on the a.d.d. The what? the what? The a.d.d. The what? Blame it on the a.d.d. The a.d.d. The a.d.d. So we blame it on The a.d.d. The what? The a.d.d. The what? Blame it on the a.d.d. The what? the what? The a.d.d. The what? Blame it on the a.d.d.

January 22 And all the ugliness just melts away I think i’ll turn another leaf today A little extra shine on everything When you still love me The city gleams in splendour by the sea A new hope carried on the ocean breeze A little extra shine on everything When you still love me

lyrics

Just A Little All we need is just a little love Just a little Sometimes is just enough Uh huh A little mercy when the going gets rough Just a little It doesn’t mean we’re not that tough Uh huh And it seems to me there ought to be A rule or something for If someone’s falling reach out for them Before they hit the floor And all we need is just a little luck Just a little Cause more might be just too much Uh huh A little grace as the world blows up Just a little To navigate the crazy stuff Uh huh And it seems to me there ought to be A rule or something for If someone’s falling reach out for them Before they hit the floor Nana nana nana nana All we need is just a little more Just a little, little, little, little, Little, little, little more And it seems to me there ought to be A rule or something for If someone’s falling reach out for them Before they hit the floor Nana nana nana nana

When we see what they have done When we bleed we bleed as one When we speak we speak aloud When we rise we’re rising proud Somewhere south of deliverance South of deliverance Somewhere south of deliverance South of deliverance We got another plan We got a lot of friends We got another plan Picking up where they’ve begun There’s a dream thy will be done One by one there’s another town There’s a storm it’s coming now Somewhere south of deliverance South of deliverance Somewhere south of deliverance South of deliverance We got another plan We got a lot of friends We got another plan Way down on freedom street At the corner of liberty Spray painted on an old fence We’re south of deliverance Somewhere south of deliverance South of deliverance Somewhere south of deliverance South of deliverance We got another plan We got a lot of friends We got another plan We got another plan We got a lot of friends We got another plan

Carpe Diem Sunrise 03:09
lyrics

It’s just one of those days When you wake up And it feels like everything’s Gonna be ok We got knocked around but We’re back up And we’re ready to jump back In the fray So let the doubters doubt And the haters hate We’re sticking it out Cause it’s not too late For us to say, hey Come on let’s start again What do you say, hey We can hurt and we can mend We’ll find a way hey, hey Come on don’t be afraid Let’s seize the day We gotta double back Til we’re back on track As we stumble through The muddy grey We got miles and miles And tight lipped smiles And we’ve lost some friends Along the way So let the doubters doubt And the haters hate We’re stickin it out Cause it’s not too late For us to say, hey Come on let’s start again What do you say, hey We can hurt and we can mend No time to waste, hey Come on, don't hesitate Let’s seize the day It’s a carpe diem sunrise By the fading harvest moon As old man time flees the scene It’s already afternoon We’ll let the doubters doubt And the haters hate We’re stickin it out It’s gonna be ok And we can say, hey Let’s go, it’s not the end Now what do you say, hey We won’t break if we bend Don’t be ashamed, hey No weak of heart only the brave Let’s seize the day Come on, come on Let’s seize the day

Always chases and sirens And a hero on his way Through the wreckage flying And always saves the day At the center of it all You, resplendent As you rise from the ashes shining The darkness ended One more take now get it right Adjust the camera change the light The scene repeats so hold on tight You can do this all damn night You’ve got a cinema heart Sometimes it bleeds You’re always playing a part Made for tv And all the love you need Stays just out of reach You’ve got a cinema Cinema heart it seems What a break in the case as The mystery unfolds And we all wait spellbound For the verdict to be told What a flair for the dramatic And a sequel we all know With an ending oh so tragic As the credits roll One more take now get it right Adjust the camera change the light The scene repeats so hold on tight You can do this all damn night You’ve got a cinema heart Sometimes it bleeds You’re always playing a part Made for tv And all the love you need Stays just out of reach You’ve got a cinema Cinema heart it seems One more take now get it right Adjust the camera change the light The scene repeats so hold on tight You can do this all damn night Night, night Night, night Night, night You’ve got a cinema heart Sometimes it bleeds You’re always playing a part Made for tv And all the love you need Stays just out of reach You’ve got a cinema Cinema You got a cinema Cinema You got a cinema Cinema You got a cinema Cinema Heart Cinema Heart Cinema Heart

Pieces 04:05

Used to hold one another at night now We only hold on to pieces of what Once passed as love as once passed as sane now Passes for blame now passes for all this pain Where do we go now The ship is sinking It suddenly went down For no good reason The wine so sweet now sour That we’ve been drinking As silently we drown And watch it all go down Sweepin up Sweepin up Chunks and shards fragments crushed beneath our knees Ground to pulp while we try to find our feet Shattered pieces of broken hopes and dreams No more us we ours only you you and me Where do we go now The ship is sinking It suddenly went down For no good reason The wine so sweet now sour That we’ve been drinking As silently we drown And watch it all go down Try to find a way to glue How did it come to this huh How can we hope to fix huh This twisted tangled mess huh Now we’re just sweeping up Sweepin up Sweepin up Where do we go now The ship is sinking It suddenly went down For no good reason The wine so sweet now sour That we’ve been drinking As silently we drown And watch it all go down Try to find a way to glue How did it come to this huh How can we hope to fix huh This twisted tangled mess huh Now we’re just sweeping up The pieces All we have are pieces

Sunbeams 03:41

The moment passes and that’s ok The city sleeps and the city wakes And life goes on bittersweet in falling rain We don’t know what tomorrow brings But the sun's still up and the birds still sing And despite it all good things are happening We’ll still be we’ll still be in sunbeams We’ll still be in dusty noonday sunbeams So leaders speak and husbands try As mothers weep and babies cry and life is hard under cruel october skies The news is bad and the challenge great And we’re all weighed down by the same damned fate But there’s love still here in a future ever strange We’ll still be we’ll still be in sunbeams We’ll still be in dusty noonday sunbeams So I’ll wait here for a sign As i die here in your eyes The city works and the city plays In another time in another place Where life goes on and the moments slip away So i’ll wait for you while you wait for him To awaken maybe start again To realize some things just have to change We’ll still be we’ll still be in sunbeams We’ll still be in dusty noonday sunbeams We’ll always be in dusty noonday sunbeams

Oh the way down it’s not so far Just a rung or two away If you listen you might hear it If you watch you might be entertained Don’t need no ticket Show’s always free Down here on Hastings Street Oh drama on Hastings Street Oh endless this tragedy Why the sorrow why the needle Why the waste and the despair Could we fix this could we care less Just spectators unaware Don’t need no ticket Show’s always free Down here on Hastings Street Oh, drama on Hastings Street Endless insanity As rain gently falls we leave the stage The Hastings Street lights shine As we turn and walk away Oh drama on Hastings Street Oh endless this tragedy Oh, drama on Hastings Street Endless insanity

Ooooohhhhh yeah Mysterious I’m serious How can it be I’m so oblivious Turn on the news am I confused Did I ignore it did I just forget Sometimes I think it’s all a dream Then I’m awake and fighting back a scream If these kids knew what’s all in store Would they wanna buy it anymore So what in the world is goin on again Haven’t we learned our lesson yet Is God insane or does he have a plan If he’s on vacation when’s he gettin back Cause I wanna know Yes i wanna Know I read the paper and I watch tv I turn on the media machinery I surf the web I search for truth But all I find’s diluted deja vu It’s not too late if we can just relate To each other and forget our hate We’ll be ok if we can find a way To keep from repeating all the same mistakes So what in the world is goin on again Haven’t we learned our lesson yet Is God insane or does he have a plan If he’s on vacation when’s he gettin back What in the world is goin on again You want my opinion no one asked me yet Is God asleep maybe he’s still in bed Or six feet under do you think he’s dead Do you think he’s dead Do you think he’s dead Ooooohhhhh yeah So what in the world is goin on again Haven’t we learned our lesson yet Is God just lonely does he need a friend Or has all this attention just gone to his head What in the world is goin on again You want my opinion no one asked me yet Is God a comedian who doesn’t care If this is his circus should we say a prayer Cause i wanna know Yes i wanna no

Can’t stop thinkin of all the things she said Broken record endless in my head Fascinating, captivating, stimulating, penetrating Now we can read between the lines The writing on the wall In other words Get out, get out, get out of here I got nothin to say to you she said Get out, get out, get out of here I got better things to do she said In other words Can't imagine how this makes me feel Only my desire or is this real Contemplating, speculating, insulating, isolating Waxing, waning, building, fading Loving, hating, so frustrating Now we can read between the lines The writing on the wall In other words Get out, get out, get out of here I got nothin to say to you she said Get out, get out, get out of here I got better things to do she said In other words goodbye In other words don’t try Your words will never change me Or how I feel inside In other words I lied Don’t ask I don’t know why Your touch will never heal me Of all the wounds I hide In other words Come on baby please don’t hate me For god's sake please don’t forsake me Now I feel for you now I need you Since I say it’s true you should need me too she said In other words hello In other words don’t go Come on I said I’m sorry That’s not what I meant you know In other words please stay I don't want you to go away I want it back the way it was For everything to be ok Now you can read between the lines You see it’s right here on the wall Let me spell it out for you I said Get out, get out, get out of here I got nothin to say to you I said Get out, get out, get out of here Just nod your head am I gettin through I said Get out, get out get away from me Don’t be showin your face around here I said Get out, get out get away from me Are you reading me loud and clear huh In other words I got nothin to say to you
