Street Lights
03:46
|

When the street lights shine I hear a call
From a kid I used to know
He's a wind that likes to flow into the room
And he tells me not to worry
'Cause he'll be back again
To remind me of who I really am
Growing up is a bitch and it's getting old
How's a kid gonna know if he isn't told?
Still waiting for the street lights coming on
I kinda miss that kid, when's he coming home?
A whistle echoes from a block away
'Cause the sun already set
And it's time for him to get heading home
And tomorrow the sun will shine so very bright that it won't set
Twenty years have passed and no street lights yet
Growing up is a bitch and it's getting old
How's a kid gonna know if he isn't told?
Still waiting for the street lights coming on
I kinda miss that kid, when's he coming home?

Mean World
02:58
|
|||
You see on the TV the people losing their minds
Like no one's got a heart to be kind
We're caught up in a lot of mob mentality
Mistaken for reality
Phobias and traumas, they do fuck with our hearts
Sabotaging us from the start, it's hard
Can we blame this social game for playing the part?
Stirring chaos like it's an art
So, will we cry tomorrow's tears?
Or will we live a day at a time?
So, will we table empty fears?
Or maybe leave this mean world behind?
It's possible that all the world is going to hell
It's possible we're under a spell
Why are we now spiraling into villainy?
Perhaps it's what they want us to see
With all the blood and all the guns and all of the greed
On hatred for the masses we feed
Someone get me out of here, it's not what I need
Unplug me from this social machine
So, will we cry tomorrow's tears?
Or will we live a day at a time?
So, will we table empty fears?
Or maybe leave this mean world behind?

Take Me Apart
03:22
|

Laissez-vous flotter dans un ciel du genre intérieur
There's something on your mind
You don't need to say a single line
There's something on your mind
I read it on your face every single time
So take me apart
'Cause I've been out of order from the start
So take me apart
And put me back together how you want
System overload
Been running out of fuel
Worked my fingers to the bone
Someone hit restore
'Cause I just hold it in
'Til I cannot hold no more
So take me apart
'Cause I've been out of order from the start
So take me apart
And put me back together how you want

Neighborhood Kids
04:02

Where did we go? Where did the time go?
Weren't we all just in the neighborhood?
Who needs a car? We'll skate just as far
And after everything, we're back on Alice Street
And it feels like this is our town
It might look dead to everyone else around
But it's our neighborhood
On my mind
Too young to drink, too young to give a fuck
How'd we all survive? And weren't we so alive?
We had our boards and every curb was ours
Before the cops come, let's get in one last run
And it feels like this is R-Town
The streets are cracked, it's our stomping ground
And it's our neighborhood
On my mind

Moon
03:22
|

Stars are all aligned
Got nothing but time
So let's feel it out
So let's be ourselves
You're my moon and sun
And the night is young
So let's feel it out
So let's free ourselves
You said you gon' stay and I said Hallelujah
You said you don't play and I said neither do I
You gon' let your heart lead you and so will I
You and I
Lighting up the sky
Got me feeling high
I just want you next to me
Tell me you agree
You said you gon' stay and I said Hallelujah
You said you don't play and I said neither do I
You gon' let your heart lead you and so will I
You and I

Bounce, repeated, I want my love back
Bounce, repeated, until it comes back
Bounce, repeated, my buzz has come back
Down, repeated, I want my love back
Bounce, repeated, you were my drug that
Bounced, repeated, I want my love back
Bounce, repeated, where is the love at?
Now, repeated, I wish you never came back around
(Cory)
Too many days, I wish that I could reclaim
If I could go on back, I'd save myself from the pain and tell myself
Don't believe it all, you don't need to think that way
I left it all back there with it all
'Cause I don't need that shit no more I got another thing going on
Don't believe it all, you don't need to think that way
Don't believe it all, disregard the shit they say
You never gave yourself the time to really grow into yourself
You never let yourself just be the thing you are
You gave a little bit too much to other people, yeah
Because you're just like that
And it's shame it had to happen but you had your time to cry
You got some better things to do than hang your head
You're gonna keep yourself moving to a better place
Because you're just like that
(Jensen)
And I've been thinking all along
What's the cause? Who's to blame?
If I love her am I wrong? It's a shame
How emotions get bottled up in a song
I set it out to sea with a note attached that reads
"Everything has a cost, your feelings are not free
Everyone plays a part, but no one bigger than me
The fruit of a lover's tree can fall and face a defeat
Or fall just to place the seeds, it's really your choice to be
Be"
(Cory)
Don't believe it all, you don't need to think that way
Don't believe it all, disregard the shit they say
You never gave yourself the time to really grow into yourself
You never let yourself just be the thing you are
You gave a little bit too much to other people, yeah
Because you're just like that
And it's shame it had to happen but you had your time to cry
You got some better things to do than hang your head
You're gonna keep yourself moving to a better place
Because you're just like that
(Jensen)
Bounce, repeated, I want my love back
Bounce, repeated, until it comes back
Bounce, repeated, my buzz has come back
Down, repeated, I want my love back
Bounce, repeated, you were my drug that
Bounced, repeated, I want my love back
Bounce, repeated, where is the love at?
Now, repeated, I wish you never came back around

Inner Space
04:53
|

So many noises, so many choices
Pressing on my mind, on my mind
I need a second to decompress it
Float into a sky of the inner kind
And it's the moment, I start to orbit
Leave without a trace, without a trace
It feels so quiet flying high up
In my inner space, in my inner space
I must admit it's pretty blissful
Floating on my own but I'm all alone
I won't deny it, I wouldn't mind it
If you came along, if you came along
Won't you come float into my inner space
I want you to float into my inner space
Can I come float into your inner space
I want to float into your inner space
So float on over 'cause if we wanna
We can disappear for a little while
And who's to stop us from spending hours
In a quiet place, in our Inner Space
We can have our own world now
If we wanted to, if we wanted to
I won't deny it, I wouldn't mind it
If you came along, if you came along
Won't you come float into my inner space
I want you to float into my inner space
Can I come float into your inner space
I want to float into your inner space

Just Fine
04:02
|

I think I'm okay
I think I'm doing just fine
I think I'm on my way
I think I'm good on time
Why do I keep so much inside?
Why am I always tongue-tied?
Why do I feel content to hide?
No, everything is just fine
And don't you wanna stay?
We could be here all night
I think I heard you say
That everything is all right
Why am I afraid to be alone?
Why do I crave to be alone?
Why do I feel I'll just explode?
No, everything is just fine
Sometimes I'm fine
Sometimes I'm just trying to be
I think I'm okay
I think I'm doing just fine
I think I'm on my way
I think I'm good on time
Sometimes I'm fine
Sometimes I'm just trying to be
I think I'm trying to be
I know I'm trying to be
At least I'm trying to be

All Fucked Up
03:40
|
|||
Slipping, it's slipping out my hands
Yeah they say that time's gonna do
Come on just let me start again
Falling, I'm falling on my back
That's what happens when rugs get pulled out
Think I'll just lay here for a while
It's got me all fucked up and I don't know which way's up now
Feeling like I'm ten feet off the ground
It's got me all fucked up and I think I lost my page now
Maybe I'll just do another round
Talking, I'm talking to myself
Only problem is I won't listen
Come on get back where you once belonged
And I kick myself every time I fail
'Cause the self-doubt got me scared
And the only thing making me wanna sing is you
It's got me all fucked up and I don't know which way's up now
Feeling like I'm ten feet off the ground
It's got me all fucked up and I think I lost my page now
Maybe I'll just do another round
It's got me all fucked up
It's got me all fucked up
It's got me all fucked up
It's got me all fucked up

The Last Time
03:58
|
|||
Take a look, make it good
Remember me or maybe don't
Say goodbye to this time
'Cause I'm on my way out
And it's the last time you'll be seeing my ass around here
I'd like to say, it's been great
But I've been counting down the days
You made a fool, a god damn fool
Of yourself, look at yourself
And it's the last time you'll be seeing my ass around here
I'm on my way to a better place
Onwards and upwards
'Cause I ain't got time to waste
I'm in my inner space and I love it
And I'm feeling it, and I'm feeling it
And it's the last time you'll be seeing my ass around here
