I took a leap of faith
With a glowing face
for a very first date
Now you come as you please
Like i’ve got something to give
We’re right at the start
We swear we’ll never ever part
Headstrong, we move along
Evenly, over the odds
Standing on my feet, falling asleep
While my sugar sweet’s dancing to the beat
You make me feel like a shkn’
Shkn’ bottle of soda
You really got me breakin’
Breakin’ all my walls down
Cut right to the chase
If you may
There’s not a minute left to waste
I’m on the edge to fight
The power shortage from left to right
Spell it out for you
with opposable thumbs
You are the only one for me
You’re everything I’ve dreamed of
You got me
Standing on my feet, falling asleep
While my sugar sweet’s dancing to the beat
You make me feel like a shkn’
Shkn’ bottle of soda
You really got me breakin’
Breakin’ all of my walls down
And if all our thoughts
They overflow
And crystalize like secrets
All we fight for won’t get old
If liberty is what unfolds
There’s everything you need to know now
everything you need to know
You make me feel like a shkn’
Shkn’ bottle of soda
You really got me breakin’
Breakin’ all of my walls down

CLOCKWORK REASONS
If it’s too early
I run a little bit late
I’m always delayed
If it’s too late
I let the hours go by
While you sleep at night
If it’s too clinical
It’ll make me cynical
of sensibility
If it’s too quiet
Then you are on my mind
More than i like
Lighten up
These clockwork reasons
(Won’t ever stop coming at you)
Don’t ever
Lighten up
Like every circle
It’ll come around
To draw you a smile
Add another number
Calendar writer
Oh it’s never enough
Well if I have to leave
I’ll do it quietly
It’ll tear me apart
Lighten up
These clockwork reasons
(Won’t ever stop coming at you)
Don’t ever
Lighten up
Like every circle
It’ll come around
to draw you a smile
It’ll come around
To draw you a smile

DISTRACTION
Anything that grabs my attention
Like an addiction
is a good distraction
So I’m running as fast as I can
Through the confusion
In no particular direction
When it’s over
I’m setting off
To the sun
To the sun
I’m on my way
I’m gonna find my way
To the sun
To the sun
I am trading all these hours for dollars
And I’m still caught between the drywall hidden underground
And when I’m up in the night from these rattling pipes
I never feel more alone
When it’s over
I’m setting off
To the sun
To the sun
I’m on my way
I’m going to hide away
In the sun
In the sun
I borrowed some words from a phrase
Talk about a phase
Everything’s recycled these days
When it’s over
I’m setting off
To the sun
To the sun
I’m on my way
Find my way
To the sun
To the sun
Anything that grabs my attention
is a good distraction
So I’m running as fast as i can
Headed in your direction

Can you please complete my search?
There seems to be an error on my download
‘Cos you see,
all my answers
were given to me
by father’s church
I’ll say a prayer for you
Will you please connect my call
For I have been a lonesome wanderer
I’m still trying to find
Someone who might
All sins aside
Think so alike
I’ll say a prayer for you
But no one’s there
so what’s the use
Engine, please re-play this memory
I can’t recall my sense of wonder
And I’ll say a prayer for you
But no one’s there
so what’s the use
I’ll say a prayer for you
But no one’s there
so what’s the use
Can you please complete my search
There seems to be an error on my download
An error on my download
An error on my download

THE RIVER'S BLUE
The news is in, tonight
Of a distant star, a satellite
I've got one more worry on my mind
But tomorrow, leaves another one behind
Close your eyes and gather thought
For all that things were once before
Is the present a real tragedy?
Now what about the things to come?
Fall in, fall into
The river’s blue
Break in, break in two
Over you
I wallow in my pride
Of exchanging life into light
So I cut my tongue to stay behind
The walls, the lies, the territory lines
Fall in, fall into
The river’s blue
Break in, break in two
Over you
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Fall into
Why don’t you fall down the river
Break in two
Over you
