1. QuickSand

Ok
Now the monster is awake
It won't rest until there's nothing left
Maybe ever and anon
I forget about the pain
Someone bending light comes along
And flowers lean towards the sun
Some people fall in love and touch the sky
Some people fall in love and find quicksand
I hover somewhere in between
I swear
I can't make up my mind



2. A Kiss To Send Us Off

Meet me here
On November 11th, come alone
Bring your mouth and selective irreverence
We'll both see stars

Just one more tongue kiss before the sky
It falls out from this cloud we're hovering on
A kiss to send us off

Kill your doubt
With the coldest of weapons; confidence
No more words
Just the sound of resplendent tongues colliding

Just one more tongue kiss before the sky
It falls out from this cloud we're hovering on
A kiss to send us off

Here I am
There you are
On a wire connecting our hearts
There's a string that is tied to a kite
There's a storm in the sky
Now the clouds become electric
Here I am
There you are
Could I have kiss to send us off?

A kiss to send us off



3. Dig

We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easier to identify. Look me in the eye
And ask for forgiveness;
We´ll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes you are my friend.
We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when weakenss turns my ego up
I know you´ll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we´ll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how hard we try.
We all have something that digs at us,
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you´ll act as a clever medicine.
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me.
Sing this song!
Remind me that we´ll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
Oh each other....
When everything
Else is gone.



4. Anna Molly

A cloud hangs over,
it's a city by the sea,
I watch the ships pass and wonder if she might be,
out there and sober as a well for loneliness,
please do persist girl its time we met and made, a mess

I picture your face in the back of my eyes,
a fire in the attic a proof of prize,
Anomaly, anomaly, anomaly...
doo doo doo doo do doodoo doo doo doo

A cloud hangs over,
and mutes my happiness,
a thousand ships couldnt send me back from distress,
wish you were here,
I'm a wounded satellite,
I need you now put me back together make me right

I picture your face in the back of my eyes a fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
Anomaly, anomaly, anomaly
I'll crawl to your name,
I'll bend to the earth,
nobody else will ever compare,
Anomaly, anomaly


Wait there is a light,
there is a fire illuminated attic,
fate or something better I could care less,
just stay with me a while,
wait there is a light, there is a fire defragmenting the attic,
fate or something better I could care less,
just stay with me a while

I picture your face in the back of my eyes a fire in the attic a proof of the prize,
Anomaly, anomaly, anomaly,
I'll crawl to your name,
I'll bend to the earth,
nobody else could ever compare,
Anomaly, anomaly



Wait there is a light,
there is a fire illuminated attic,
fate or something better I could care less,
just stay with me a while,
wait there is a light there is a fire defragmenting the attic,
fate or something better I could care less,
just stay with me a while


doo doo doo doo do doo doo doo doo doo



5. Love Hurts

Tonight we drink to youth
And holding fast the truth
Don't want to lose what I had as a boy
My heart still has a beat
But love is now a feat
As common as a cold day in L.A.

Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive

I'm fettered and abused
Stand naked and accused
Should I surface, this one-man submarine?
I only want the truth!
So tonight we drink to youth!
I'll never lose what I had as a boy

Sometimes when I'm alone I wonder
Is there a spell that I am under
Keeping me from seeing the real thing?

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive

Without love I won't survive

Love hurts
But sometimes it's a good hurt
And it feels like I'm alive
Love sings
When it transcends the bad things
Have a heart and try me
'cause without love I won't survive

Love hurts, ohhh-oh ohh
Love hurts
Without love I won't survive
Love hurts la-la-la-la-la-la oh
Love hurts
Without love I won't survive



6. Light Grenades

We're given a garden
And gave back a parking lot
(We've got about fifteen minutes to go)
Before this audience starts throwing tomatoes
(It's not the end, there is more to show
We've got about fifteen minutes to go)

Survived the plague
Floated the flood
Just peeked our heads above the mud
No one's immune
Deadening bells
My god, will we survive ourselves?

I'm not an alarmist
But someone should break the glass
(And pull that red, T-lever down)
To get their attention
Start lobbing the light grenades
(That burst and blind them with the truth,
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth)

Survived the plague
Floated the flood
Just peeked our heads above the mud
No one's immune
Deadening bells
My god, will we survive ourselves?

Wipe off your face
We've come this far
Come on
Remember who you are
Come on
Remember who you are
Remember



7. Earth To Bella (Part I)

Earth to Bella
You think you've got it all figured in
Earth to Bella
Everything you know is wrong (Well, almost)
Earth to Bella
I see where you are not listening
I bear the burden of being the voice that let's you know
We all grow old
And before you swim you've gotta be okay to sink

Earth to Bella
The world can be an unfriendly place
So hold your head up
Do your best to save some face
It's not so hard
Just undo yourself and see your second sun
Ascend

Okay to sink
I'm okay to sink
I'm okay to sink
I'm okay to sink



8. Oil And Water

You and I are like oil and water
And we've been trying
Trying to mix it up
We've been dancing on a volcano
And we've been crying
Crying over blackened souls

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
There is no parasol that could shelter this weather

I been smiling with anchors on my shoulders
But I've been dying
Dying to let them go

Babe, this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
There is no parasol that could shelter this weather
Babe, this wouldn't be the first time
It will not be the last time
We were trying to believe everything would get better

We been lying to each other
Hey Babe, just call it
Call it what it is
Oil and water



9. Diamonds And Coals

If it’s good to complicate than both of us are doing fine
Just keep your eyes on your part and leave me alone to mine
If it’s good to instigate than we’re a fast horse, bet on us
I’m not calling you an animal
I think we just fight too much
Come on, in spite of this we’re doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal
We’re both aligned in framed of mind but circumstance has got us good
And now you’re seeing a side of me I wished no one ever would
Yeah, if it’s right to pick a fight, we’re fingers in a sugar bowl
Love isn’t perfect
Even diamonds start out as coal
Hey now, in spite of this we’re doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal
Give us time to shine
Even diamonds start as coal
We’re incomplete and infantine
Even diamonds start as coal.
Give it time girl, the fire feels divine
The sweetest things
They burn before they shine
We think way too much
Look at us losing touch
A promise is a promise until...
Yeah, in spite of this we’re doing just fine
Even diamonds start as coal
Give us time to shine
Even diamonds starts as coal.
We’re incomplete and infantine
Even diamonds start as coal



10. Rogues

I'm keeping an eye on the future
An eye on the past
And the present in my pocket
Just in case I need a door
Into a brave new world where all solutions end up with my head
Buried to my neck in sand

Enough bowing down to disillusion
Hats off and applause to rogues and evolution
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected, you're not paying attention
It's too good not to have an effect

I'm keeping an eye on the pulse
An ear to the track and penance in a locket
I'm dropping from the highest floor
When it hits ground I watch it smash to pieces
Songs of liberation echo from the dust

Enough bowing down to disillusion
Hats off and applause to rogues and evolution
The ripple effect is too good not to mention
If you're not affected, you're not paying attention
It's too good not to have an effect



11. Paper Shoes

I fly
I soar
This I adore
And then like a locomotive
The sound of your sorrow comes
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater
I'd rather be alone
You're about as reliable as paper shoes in bad weather
But pain will roll off like water on feather
You'd fly
You'd soar
But then like a locomotive
The sound of your sorrow comes
I'm tired of the way it feels
I only apologized to you to make you feel better
But I think I've outgrown that horsehair sweater
I'd rather be on my own
You're about as reliable as paper shoes in bad weather
But pain will roll off like water on feathers



12. Pendulous Threads

Mend this careless thread
It's gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Or pull and see how much we can undo
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
On a burning bridge, your options are minimal at best
Depending on where you're standing
And how much breath is in your chest
If it came down to it
Would you high-tail home and hide?
Or dance on fire and enjoy the ride?
Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Or pull and see how much we can undo
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
At the heart of it all
That innermost, your fiery core
There's an amassing armor and it's building you into a bore
Life's a match in a gas tank
Don't ever mourn the ebbing tide
Just dance on fire and enjoy the ride
Hey!
Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)
Or pull and see how much we can undo
(Thread on my sweater is pendulous, step back and pull it
Watch it unravel faster than a speeding bullet)



13. Earth To Bella (Part II)

Earth To Bella
I sense a quiet Emergency
Earth to Bella
So Much More to get than wrong (Oh Yeah)

Earth To Bella
Treading Water Successfully
But Are you Really?
Dont you want to see the Deep?

Its not so hard Just forgive yourself
And Feel the water over you.

(Ooooh)
(Oooooo La La La)
(Guitar playing and Sounds)
