01. CAN'T KEEP

I wanna shake
I wanna wind out
I wanna leave
This mind and shout

I've lived
All this life
Like an ocean
In disguise
I don't live for ever
You can't keep
Me here

I wanna race
With the sundown
I want a last breath
I don't let out

Forgive
Every being
The bad feelings
It's just me
I won't wait
For answers
You can't keep
Me here

I wanna rise
And say goodnight
I Wanna take
A look on the other side

I've lived
All this life
It's been wonder
Full at night
I will live for ever
You can't keep
Me here



02. SAVE YOU

I'm gonna save you fucker,....not gonna lose you
Feeling cocky and strong,.. can't let you go,...
Too important to me

Too important to us,... we'd be lost without you
Baby, let yourself fall,... I'm right below you now

And fuck me if I say something you don't wanna hear.. and fuck me
And fuck me if you only hear what you wanna hear
Fuck me if I care,... but I'm not leaving here

You helped me when I was down,... I'll help when you're down
Why are you hitting yourself,... c'mon hit me instead

Let's pick up your will,... it's grown fat and lazy
I'm sympathetic as well,... don't go on me now

And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfist and clear
And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
My best friend,... wake up to see you could have it all

Cause there is but you,... and something within you
It's taken control,.. let's beat it, get up let's go

Oh you're in your own world, let's see the whole world
Let's pick up your soul

And fuck me if I say something you don't wanna hear... and fuck me
And fuck me if you only hear the treble in your head
Please help,... me,... to help you,... help yourself

Help me, help yourself,... please want me to,... please let me to
Help you


03. LOVE BOAT CAPTAIN

Is this just another day,... this god forgotten place?
First comes love, then comes pain. Let the games begin,...
Questions rise and answers fall,... insurmountable.

Love boat captain
Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear,... here.
It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough.
All you need is love

Is this just another phase? Earthquakes making waves,...
Trying to shake the cancer off? Stupid human beings,...
Once you hold the hand of love,.. it's all surmountable.

Hold me, and make it the truth,...
That when all is lost there will be you,...
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word I still believe
And it's love

It's an art to live with pain,... mix the light into grey,..
Lost 9 friends we'll never know,.. 2 years ago today
And if our lives became too long, would it add to our regret?

And the young, they can lose hope cause they can't see beyond today,...
The wisdom that the old can't give away
Hey,... constant recoil...
Sometimes life don't leave you alone.

Hold me, and make it the truth,...
That when all is lost there will be you.
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word that I still believe and it's
Love,... love. love. love. love.

Love boat captain
Take the reigns,.. steer us towards the clear.
I know it's already been sung,... can't be said enough.
Love is all you need,.. all you need is love,..
Love,.. love,...


04. CROPDUSTER [ver tradução]

Light green to green, dark green, brown..
Every life is falling down
Brown to black, it's coming back
Dies to be part of the ground
Seed to seedling, root to stem

Eyes, no eyes, there's no difference,...
Every life is looking in
Swallowing seeds on the deathbed,...
Dig a hole in,... the garden.

Everyone is practicing,...
But this world's an accident.
I was the fool because I thought

I thought the world
Turns out the world thought me
It's all the other way round
We're upside down

Daddy's gone up in flames,..
But this ain't no movie
This ain't no book you can close
When the big lie hits your eye.

Everyone is practicing,....
Our world's an accident
I was the fool because I thought

I thought the world
Turns out the world thought me
It's all the other way round
We're upside down.. down.. down

Let the fluency set it down, down
Let the fluency set it down
There's an upside of down

The moon is rolling.. the moon
The moon is rolling 'round the world.. the world.. the world


05. GHOST

The mind is grey,... like the city
Packing in and overgrown
Love is deep,... dig it out
Standing in a hole alone
Working for something,.. that one can never hold
A place in the clouds.
Your place to hide oh my oh

So I'm flying away, away
Driving away, away

Finding open ways I missed before [I missed before)

The TV, she talks to me
Breaking news and building walls
Selling me, what I don't need
I never knew soap made you taller

So I'm riding away, away
Hiding away, away

So much talk it makes no sense at all
My senses have gone

So I'm flying away, away
Driving away, away

Passing old friends I won't know at all [won't know at all]

It doesn't hurt,.. when I bleed
But my memories they eat me
I've seen it all before,..
Bring it on cause I'm no victim

Dying away, away
Dying away, away


06. I AM MINE [ver tradução]

The selfish they're all standin' in line
Faithing and hoping to buy themselves time
Me I figure as each breath goes by
I only own my mind

The north is to south what the clock is to time
There's east and there's west and there's everywhere life
I know I was born and i know that I'll die
The in between is mine
I am mine

And the feeling, it gets left behind
All the innocence lost at one time
Significant behind the eyes
There's no need to hide...
We're safe tonight

The ocean is full cause everyone's crying
The full moon is looking for friends at hightide
The sorrow grows bigger when the sorrow's denied
I only know my mind
I am mine

And the meaning, it gets left behind
All the innocents lost at one time
Significant behind the eyes
There's no need to hide...
We're safe tonight

And the feelings that get left behind
All the innocence broken with lies
Significance, beetween the lines
We may need to hide

And the meanings that get left behind
All the innocents lost at one time
We're all different behind the eyes
There's no need to hide



07. THUMBING MY WAY

I have not been home since you left long ago...
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven...

Counting steps... walking backwards on the road
I'm counting my way back to heaven...

I can't be free with what's locked inside of me...
If there was a key, you took it in your hands
There's no wrong or right... but I'm sure there's good and bad
The questions linger overhead

No matter how cold the winter, there's a springtime ahead
I'm thumbing my way back to heaven...
I wish that I could hold you... wish that I had...
Thinking 'bout heaven...

I let go of a road... thinking that's what held me back...
And in time I've realized... it's now wrapped around my neck
I can't see what's next... from this lonely overpass
Hang my head and count my steps, as another car goes past

All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives...
Choosing the shiny ones instead
I turned my back... now there's no turning back...

No matter how cold the winter... there's a springtime ahead
I smile, but who am I kidding?
I'm just walkin' the miles... every once in a while, get a ride
Thumbing my way back to heaven...



08. YOU ARE

This broken wheel is coming undone
And the road's exploding
But you're keeping me strong
Rolling along with you,...

Love is a tower
And you're the key
Leading me higher
When you let me in

Keeping us close,... so close
On down the line

Sometimes I burn like a dot on the sun
With no one knowing
But you're keeping me strong
Moving along with you

You are a tower of
Strength to me
The darkening hour
Sees light again... again

Ooh wah... ooh wah... ooh wah... ooh
wah... ooh wah...
You are... you are... you are...
you are... you are...

Love is a tower
Of strength to me
I am the shoreline
But you're the sea.. the sea

You are, you are, you are, you are, you...
You are, you are


09. GET RIGHT

I want for to lay down
I'm waiting til sundown
I'm searching the haystacks, water is sunshine
Wait for the moment
The moment between us, the fire is made now
Hot to the touch

I wanted to get right
I wanted to get right
I wanted to get right
With it, with you

Bakers dozen parades
Stand and debate
Out single file, nine in a row, swear if you must
Keeping your boots on, float with the now
Hot to the touch
Concrete underground, case out everyday
Dregs of society
Underbelly, inside of me, rejoice and follow thee

I wanted to get right
I wanted to get right
I wanted to get right
With it

I wanted to get right
I wanted to get right
I wanted to get right
With it, with you


10. GREEN DISEASE

It's a disease,... and they're all green
It emminates from their being
Satiation with occupation

And like weeds,.. with big leaves
Stealing light from what's beneath
Where they have more,...
Still they take more

I know,.. then I don't
There's a stoway with my throat
It's deceiving
I don't believe him

We can scream,.. out our doors
Behind the wall a fat man snores
In his dreams he's,...
Choking tea leaves

Well I guess
There's nothing wrong with what you say
But don't sell me
There can't be better ways

Tell the captain
"This boat's not safe and we're drowning"
Turns out
He's the one making waves..waves.. waves

I said...
There's nothing wrong with what you say
Believe me
Just asking you to sway
No white or black, just grey
Can you feel this,..
World with your heart and not your brain?


11. HELP HELP

Tell me what I wanna hear
This shit's too good to be true
My dear

Tell me lies
Tell me lies, tell me
Tell me lies, tell me

Help me.. help me.. help me..

Storybook keeps from hurting me
You see
Shell of the man from the sea

Tell me lies
Tell me lies, tell me
Tell me lies, tell me

Tell me why
Tell me why, tell me
Tell me why, tell me

Tell me lies,...

Help me

Reservoir
Of hate and fear
Invisible
In repair
A hundred theives
Cast a spell
This is hell

Help me.. help me.. help me..

The man they call my enemy, I've seen his eyes
He looks just like me, a mirror

The more you read, we've been deceived
That everyday it becomes clearer,...

Clearer.

Not my enemy,.. no, not my enemy,..
Don't speak for me. No, not my enemy.


12. BU$HLEAGUER

How does he do it? How do they do it? Uncanny and immutable.
This is such a happening tailpipe of a party.
Like sugar, the guests are so refined

A confidence man, but why so beleagued?
He's not a leader, he's a Texas leaguer
Swinging for the fence, got lucky with a strike
Drilling for fear, makes the job simple
Born on third, thinks he got a triple

Blackout weaves its way through the cities
Blackout weaves its way through the cities
Blackout weaves its way,...

I remember when you sang
That song about today
Now it's tomorrow and
Everything has changed

A think tank of aloof multiplication
A nicotine wish and a colossus decanter
Retrenchment and hoggishness
The aristocrat choir sings
"What's the ruckus?"
The raves have not a clue
The immenseness of suffering
And the odd negotiation, a rarity
With onionskin plausibility of life,
And a keyboard reaffirmation

Blackout weaves its way through the cities
Blackout weaves its way through the cities
Blackout weaves its way,...

I remember when you sang
That song about today
Now it's tomorrow and
Everything has changed

I remember when you sang
That song about today
Now it's tomorrow and
Everything has changed


13. 1/2 FULL

Climbing over mountains
Floating out on the sea
Far from lights of a city
The elements they speak to me...

Whispering that life
Existed long before breed
Balancing the world
On its knee...

Don't see some men as 1/2 empty
See them 1/2 full of shit
Thinking that we're all but slaves
There ain't gonna be...

No middle anymore
It's been said before
The haves be having more
Yet still bored...

Won't someone save?
Won't someone save...
The world?

World.. world.. world


14. ARC

[Instrumental]


15. ALL OR NONE

It's a hopeless... situation
And I'm starting to believe
That this hopeless... situation
Is what I'm trying to achieve

But I try
To run on
Is all or none,... all or none

Here's the selfless confession
Leading me back to war
Can we help that,.. our destinations
Are the ones we've been before

I still try
To run on
But is all or none,... all or none

To myself I... surrender
To the one I'll never please

But I still try to run on
Oh I still try to run on
But it's all or none, all or none.
