Lyrics:
******

I'm a little lost
Without you
Well that could be an understatement
Now I hope that I have paid the cost
To let a day go by and not
Call on you

Cause I'm so busy, so busy
Thinking about kissing you
And now I want to do that
Without entertaining another thought

Out on the ocean flows
I'll have to pull myself together
Now it's harder I'm not on my turf
Just me and, me and those big old waves
Rolling in

Cause I'm so busy, so busy
Thinking about kissing you
And now I want to do that
Without entertaining another thought

It's all so unfinished
Following faith
A voice in me
is telling me to
Run away
I hope your feeling isn't diminished
I hope you need someone in your life
Someone like me

Cause I'm so busy, so busy
Thinking about kissing you
Now I want to do that
Without entertaining another thought

Lyrics:

My heart, creep show, some old thing on the radio.
Whos that coming round suffering popularity breakdown?
I guess it's funny that, that I got stopped when I'm walking the streets
Walkin down streets
Walkin down paths, with the kids in the back way
I say If you can't dance to this it doesn't matter (woo hoo)
If you can't dance to this it doesn't matter (yeah)
I was runnin around with my head in the sand
Looking for people and a new fan
But she told me before, baby, do your own dance
Stay off the highway

That doesn't mean you were born to run
Either we're brave or we're broken hearted
We don't believe there's a home above
That's why we're back to the place where we started
That doesn't mean you were born to run
Either we're brave or we're broken hearted
Sure as the stars in the sky above
We're going back to the place that we started

We fell from the sky in the universe
When we fell in love with the sound
of the birds and all the ocean lights
And the gravity pulling us down
Time wont let you go
There are some things you'll never know
I'm hoping that she walks through the door
I'm going.
If the sky would fall would it take that to bring us together?
Do we have to start all over again?

That doesn't mean you were born to run
Either we're brave or we're broken hearted
We don't believe there's a home above
That's why we're back to the place where we started
That doesn't mean you were born to run
Either we're brave or we're broken hearted
Sure as the stars in the sky above
We're going back to the place that we started
Born to run, until we fell 4x

(acoustic)
My heart, creep show, some old thing on the radio.
Whos that coming round suffering popularity breakdown?
I guess it's funny that, that I got stopped when I'm walking the streets
Walkin down streets
Walkin down paths, with the kids in the back way
I say If you can't dance to this it doesn't matter
If you can't dance to this it doesn't matter
I was running around with my head in the sand
Looking for people and a new fan
But she told me before, baby, do your own dance
Stay off the highway

Lyrics
*****

Now it's day, I've been trying to get that taste off my tongue
I was dreaming of just you, now our cereal, it is warm
Attractive day in the rubble of the night from before
Now I can't walk in a vacuum, I feel ugly, feel my pores
It's the trees of this day that I do battle with for the light
Then I start to feel tragic, people greet me, I'm polite
"What's the day?" "What are you doing?"
"How's your mood?" "How's that song?"
Man it passes right by me, it's behind me, now it's gone
And I can't lift you up cause my mind is tired
It's family beaches that I desire
A sacred night, where we'll watch the fireworks
The frightened babies poo
They've got two flashing eyes and they're colored why
They make me feel that I'm only all I see sometimes...


I've been eating with a good friend who said
"A Genii made me out of the earth's skin"
But in spite of her she is my birth kin,
she spits me out in her surely blood rivers
All the people life lurking in dominions of a hot Turk dish
If elephants are reaching for our purses, then meet me after the world with the shivers.


"What's the day?" "What you doing?"
"How's your food?" "How's that song?"
Man it passes right by me, it's behind me, now it's gone
And I can't lift you up cause my mind is tired, it's family beaches that I desire
That sacred night where we watched the fireworks
They frightened the babies and you know they've got two flashing eyes
And if they are color blind, they make me feel, that you're only what I see sometimes.
And I can't lift you up cause my mind is tired, it's family beaches that I desire
That sacred night where we watched the fireworks
They frightened the babies and you know they've got two flashing eyes
And if they are color blind, they make me feel, that I'm only what I see sometimes...

Lyrics:

i've waited hours for this
i've made myself so sick
i wish i'd stayed
asleep today

i never thought this day would end
i never thought tonight could ever be
this close to me

just try to see in the dark
just try to make it work
to feel the fear before you're here
i make the shapes come much too close
i pull my eyes out
hold my breath
and wait until i shake...

but if i had your faith
then i could make it safe and clean
if only i was sure
that my head on the door was a dream

i've waited hours for this
i've made myself so sick
i wish i'd stayed asleep today
i never thought this day would end
i never thought tonight could ever be
this close to me

but if i had your face
then i could make it safe and clean
if only i was surethat my head on the doorwas a dream to

Lyrics:
******

There's a crowd talking loud
but they ain't saying nothing
slow and stale weak and pale
while we're running and laughing

cause there's something else
something bright and pure
something that you've never felt before
something you can't touch
something you can't see
you just don't believe

don't you die yet
first class riot
you can't buy it
first class riot

you don't know where to go
still you point out directions
black and white so uptight
while we run for perfection

cause there's something else
something bright and pure
something that you've never felt before
something you can't touch
something you can't see
you just don't believe

don't you die yet
first class riot
you can't buy it
first class riot

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo oooooooooooo doooooo dooooooooooooooooooooooo daaaaa daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

don't you die yet
first class riot
you can't buy it
first class riot...

Open up your
Open up your
Open up your throat
And let all of that time
All of that time
All of that time
All of that time go

I know it sucks that Daddy's done
But try to think of what you want
You've got to open up your
Open up your
Open up your throat

You've got to weigh what he said
He helped you shape the way you play
You've got to get rid of the mourning
Sort out the habits of your mind (You've got to have a real good time)

Whoo! Whaaa x 100.....POHHHhhhhh pohhhhhhhhhhhhh pohhhhhhhhhh poh whooo poh whoo poh whooo poh whoo pohhh *Sick beat*

Matt!

You're halfway to fully grown
You've got a real good shot
Won't help to hold inside
Keep it real, give a real shout out

Lyrics:
******

Took a trip on a bus that didn't know
Met a girl sellin' drinks at the disco
Said truth comes back when you let it go
Seems complicated cause it's really so simple
Walkin' down Young Street on a Friday
Can't follow them, gotta do it my way
No fast lane, still on a highway
Movin' in and out, no doubt there's a brighter day

No time to get down cause I'm moving up
No time to get down cause I'm moving up
No time to get down cause I'm moving up
Ahh, haa... Check out the crabs in the bucket

It's like this, It's like this..
It's like fly in a room, scream, writing on walls
Swear this clone been havin' a ball
Claimin' themselves just before last call
Tic-a-tic-a-toc tic-a-tic-a-toc
Clock strikes twelve, clock strikes one
Smoking gun put these fools on the run
I know it's not that simple, I know it's not that hard
where's your goal

No time to get down cause I'm moving up
No time to get down cause I'm moving up
No time to get down cause I'm moving up
Ahh, haa... Check out the crabs in the bucket

Yeah na I mean
Yeah, I heard you man, yo, check, yo, yo

It's a conniption, fit when the microphones lit
I take it higher like a bird on a wire, retire the fire
I'll never cause I'm just moving on up
Choosin' to touch, the unseen, craving the clutch
The most inevitable, legible pyro-mania
Slaying the devil, and send him back to Transylvania
Strangely enough, I avoid that side of the ghetto
From my heavy metal, will settle the puppets like Jepeto
Damm, if mirrors where created by sand
Then I'm looking in the water for reflections of man
Understand the minds above time when it's empty
Emcee, tragically hip, ahead by a century, rrahh

No time to get down cause I'm moving up
No time to get down cause I'm moving up
No time to get down cause I'm moving up
Ahh, haa... Check out the crabs in the bucket

I know a place where diamonds never fade away
My dearest friend is shining brighter day by day

Any day is a new chance
Any day is a new chance
Any day is a new chance
A new romance

I know a place where diamonds never fade away
I know a place where hate and innocence can play

Doing time for silly crimes
wasn't all i had in mind
simple games and stupid rhymes
wasn't all i thought i'd find

don't know where to begin
brand new trophies to win
brand new ways to fit in

...ah hahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
...ahhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

*Sweet beats*

Wasted love on images
feeling less for saying yes
wasted love in no good case
always waits till its too late

....THIS NEW WAVES COMING IN
don't know where to begin
brand new trophies to win
brand new ways to fit in

...ah hahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
...ahhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
...ah hahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Lyrics:
*****

Tykes who feast but do not pray
Sun dried cheeks and sun dyed grains
Spilled in the house that they leave like geese
Travel in the night like a pearl thief

Believe in ghosts and set them free
Bury your heart, don't shake that sheet
Give your teeth to the crocodile cave
Under my wings and on my head

Twisting heads with the sounds of change
Change so often they'll be dead
Kissing the people that you'll all burn
Trusting your friends without thinking best

Leaving yourself to kill your grief
Rooms can be lonely, but that don't mean
I want a son who can float and fly
I'll take a daughter who laughs and cries

When you are home you can do as you please
Some have homes in falling trees
One day our homes will all fall down
One day your body will be in the ground

When I wonder
I often sit wondering, my brain gets so delirious
When I wonder
When ghosts from other places come and meet me do I know that they're a friend?

When I wonder
I often sit wondering, my brain gets so delirious
When I wonder
When ghosts from other places come and meet me do I know that they're a friend?

Time to feast, don't wait to play
?
Off in the dust where they feel like kings
Some got hurt and some did sing

I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder
I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder
Who will win?

I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder
Wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder
Who will win?

Bad feelings I know
Good silence means we're home
