Here We Go

So here we go...
Once again flipping through the pages of every young girl's dream
Fancy shoes lift her up larger than life it seems
Picturesque in beauty
Perfect in grace
And when the dashing prince came in
Her mind was swept away
All too easily swept away
So pick me up now
For I've gone weak in my knees
And oh what's left when this fairy tale ends
I hate to say but its just you and me my friends
You and me my friends
Caught within the pages
Losing more and more
Of everything that made her beautiful
To the eyes of the world
I pray that there's a cure
Trapped within a body
Designed by someone else
She has her soul tucked away
Safely on the shelf
It holds the remnants of her former self
So pick me up now
For I've gone weak in my knees
And oh what's left when this fairy tale ends
I hate to say but its just you and me my friend
You and me my friend
And this is for all unlike Cinderella's slipper
You're unlike glass, but still so fragile
And I don't want to break you
Maybe just wear you in
Now you're wearing thin
So here we go...

Remember when, troubles lasted only
as long as the story books end
and pages were drawn
and broken glass still reflects memories
continuing up the very same stairs
And still I wonder, what did we do wrong
It never seemed to feel that way
I never was that strong
I still sleep in the sheets we fell beneath
And still I wonder, where did we go wrong
I laughed with you just yesterday
And yet that feels so long
But who am I to speak
Were we in love for just a week
And time just stands still without familiar smiles
Filling my cup to the brim
As I drink it all in
With pane so thick
Looking out to see you're the only one
Being embraced by the sun

Oh My
Oh I haven't slept for days
Oh My
I can't keep these iron lids closed
Oh My
Troubles trickle out this tin-can heart
Mostly empty now, I've lost my star
Mostly empty now, we took it too far
Oh My
Oh I'm reachin' for the sun
Oh My
Escape from all the wicked things I've done
Oh My
Constellation prize the moon
San Francisco bird, I hope you get there soon
San Francisco bird, I hope you get there soon

Oh well it seems
Summer's coming round
Oh an it sounds like
Skipping vinyl telling songs of warm sun
And melting into your love
Oh its my favorite game we play anyway
Imprint left on me
Like a criminal on white paper
I folded in to an airplane
Lit aflame and let it and my self go
For an hour or so come May
Oh and you seem
Out of sorts today
Oh I can tell by
The way electric city light
Places shadows on your face
And the city skyline will never sway your way
Imprint left on me
Like a criminal on white paper
I folded in to an airplane
Lit aflame and let it and my self go
Imprint left on me
Like a criminal on white paper
I folded in to an airplane
Lit aflame and let it and my self go
For an hour or so
Now you say you're lost and alone
When you call me up on the telephone
And your heart feels cold you say
But all through May
I smoked and smoked and smoked and smoked and smoked and
I smoked your soul away
I smoked your soul away

Walk slowly over
Hands in your hair
Twirling it slowly
Can't help but stare
Clouds pull away and
Sun fills the room
Driving me crazy
The scent of you
If I gave you a little
You would take it all
If I gave you everything
You would take nothing at all
Walk slowly over
Hands in your hair
Twirling it slowly
But I couldn't care
Clouds pull away and
Sun fills the room
Driving me crazy
The sight of you
I'm free at last

Afloat on Your Ocean

And though its trite to say
I'll say it anyway
You are breathtaking you know
So let's take this away
I don't think that you realize
How you hold me up as you look me in the eyes
Like a spotlight to a stage
The moment immortalized
Until our tension gets too high
And in an explosion of color
You and I collide
And what you cannot see
Is gonna move you now
And what you slowly feel
Is a weightlessness lifting you
Right up off of the ground
Oh you just walked in
And I forgot my name
There is something overcomin'
There is something overcomin'

Safe & Sound

Well I'm on the road
The only road that I've ever known
Look at my shoes
I'm so worn out there's holes in my soul
So let the moonlight shine
Let it fill your empty skies
And tell it to your friends
'Cause they'll eat it up
And they'll breathe it in
Because they know that you will get there
Safe & Sound
Oh yeah yes you will, I know you will
Never stop tappin' you feet to
The rhythm in your head
Never stop bleeding out your soul
With the six strings ou've been given
So let the moonlight shine
Let it fill your empty skies
And tell it to your friends
'Cause they'll eat it up
And they'll breathe it in
Because they know that you will get there
Safe & Sound

Sunnywine

Radiant, Intoxicating
If I had to give you a name
I'd call you Sunnywine
But not all the time
Because by the time you
Sucked my soul fully from my lips
Suddenly you didn't want to kiss
And after all you're just another fallen angel
With devilish games
I'll take another hit
And try to forget your name
I'll try to forget your name
I'll try to forget you...and your name

The Worth Inside
05:17

She stands before me
Tears stained her cheeks
The young boy cannot be found
Her tortured mind spins round
Feel free to cry on my shoulder
And you'll see that life isn't over
Beautiful sleep fills her veins
Ceases all memory of pain
Dreams heal her soul
As she awakens to a new day
Feel free to cry on my shoulder
And you'll see that life isn't over
She doesn't see that she doesn't need him
Don't believe that she'll get by
She can't find the worth inside her
Looks at me and starts to cry
She looks at me and she starts to cry
She stands before me
Not knowing whats in store
Her mind is rhythmically dancing
Searching, waiting for a cure
Feel free to cry on my shoulder
And you'll see that life isn't over
She doesn't see that she doesn't need him
Don't believe that she'll get by
She can't find the worth inside her
Looks at me and starts to cry
She looks at me and she starts to cry

Cosmos Interweave
03:58
|

|
Weaving seamlessly
Its hard to lock it down
The touch the sight the sound
Evening shimmers 'round
The monkeys with their crown
While the cosmos interweave
Days of clockwork all are gone
Digital pulses move our feet
With electro kinetic beats
As we pour into the streets
While the cosmos interweave
Maybe this spell won't last on me
Maybe we should cast our ashes to the sea
Dropping needle missed the groove
Just a scratching static fades
Look at all the mess we've made
Drag yourself back to the cave
While the cosmos interweave
Maybe this spell won't last on me
Maybe we should cast our ashes to the sea
