Now I'm Here
04:16
|

When I was a little boy
I was told to look around myself
But now, as of late
I tend to look inside myself
It was three years ago
When I crossed paths with somebody I had never met
Well, he had blue eyes
It's blurry now; I'm starting to forget
Clocks are going backwards
I am going forwards
And now
I am here
I have no fear that comes to mind
And now
That I'm here
I can turn my back and disappear for now
As the dust thickens up
I find it hard to breathe and difficult to see
It's only natural
The others watch me from the other side
And as for you
You're in the same place that you were before
Excuse my manners
But I don't think I can take it anymore
Clocks are going backwards
I am falling forwards
And now
I am here
I have no fear that comes to mind
And now
That I'm here
I can turn my back and disappear for now

Landscape of Burns
02:29
|

|
Who will tell the rocks and trees they’re doomed to bake?
Swallowing the drops of rain that soon evaporate
Tell those who yearn, there’s nowhere to turn
Living their lives in a landscape of burns
Top down, turn around
Hit the EB, love the sound
Flash the highs, turn up surround
Won’t stop putting my foot down
Revolution, pop the clutch, oh
Stick shift down to spinning turbo
Revving matching like a pro
Practicing my heel and toe
Who will tell the people that their town's at stake?
Who will tell the fishes there'll be pits instead of lakes?
Who will tell the busboy there's no trees to climb?
The city's created a landscape of burns
Rims are chromey diamond forts
Nitro through the direct ports
Calipers are bright cred red
Gotta hit that quarter ten
When the blow valve activates
And my push rods actuate
My drive shaft is under stress
Carbon fibre won’t transgress
Where will they go when everything is gone?
Who will take the blame when everything is wrong?
No escape, but everyone yearns
To run for their lives from the landscape of burns
Top down, turn around
Hit the EB, love the sound
Flash the highs, turn up surround
Won’t stop putting my foot down
Revolution, pop the clutch, oh
Stick shift down to spinning turbo
Revving matching like a pro
Practicing my heel and toe
Rims are chromey diamond forts
Nitro through the direct ports
Calipers are bright cred red
Gotta hit that quarter ten
When the blow valve activates
And my push rods actuate
My drive shaft is under stress
Carbon fibre won’t transfress

Dictionary Blues
02:11
|

|
Walkin' down Fourth St.
Feeling quite elusive
Nodding my head to that
Radio music
I don't know what you're trying to do
But I think I wanna do it too
I've got that dictionary blues
I've got that dictionary blues
Hear the edgy singers at the
Loma Loca
The post-art rock and the
Alternative polka
I can't breathe inside a crowded elevator
It's burning up in here like an incinerator
I've got that dictionary blues
I've got that dictionary blues
I've got the dictionary blues
I've got the

One-Year Anniversary
03:06
|
|||
|
Pretty soon it'll be our one-year anniversary
Pretty soon you'll see this broken heart inside of me
My words come spilling out
Your eyes are filled with doubt
And all your love I thought was mine
Was given to some other guy
Pretty soon it'll be our one-year anniversary
Pretty soon you'll see this broken heart inside of me
I'm not sure what I said
But I apologize
'Cause all those words I thought were lies
They really took me by surprise
My words come spilling out
Your eyes are filled with doubt
And all your love I thought was mine
Was given to some other guy
Pretty soon it'll be our one-year anniversary
Pretty soon it'll be our one-year anniversary
Soon it'll be our one-year anniversary

Brand New State of Mind
03:15
|
|||
|
Heading in and out of a dream
Nothing ever is the way it seems
Replay every day in my head
I go back, retrace the things you said
But you packed your bags
Now you're going
And it's over now, I know for sure
You'll never see my face again
The seeds are sown, the plants have grown
Into a brand new state of mind
Don't call me up, but all the same
Let me in and let me play your game
So many different paths to take
It's no surprise we drifted separate ways
Posters hanging on the wall
Watch them fade away and they'll fall
You will shine
I lag behind
And it's over now, I know for sure
You'll never see my face again
The seeds are sown, the plants have grown
Into a brand new state of mind
Don't call me up, but all the same
Let me in and let me play your game
But you packed your bags
And you're going home
And it's over now, I know for sure
You'll never see my face again
The seeds are sown, the plants have grown
Into a brand new state of mind
Don't call me up, but all the same
Let me in and let me play your game

Telephone Book
02:03
|
|||
|
Hey, do you want to steal this?
Hey, do you want to get dismissed?
Hey, do you want a piece of risk?
'Cause I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
What the telephone book says
Hey, do you want to learn a trick?
Hey, do you want a lock to pick?
Hey, do you want to throw a brick?
'Cause I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
What the videotape says
Sitting, spitting on the side of the road
Let's throw all the rules in the trash
Boredom's calling out both our names
No one cares so let's put on airs of cool (airs of cool)
Hey, do you want to join a gang?
Hey, do you want to make a pay?
Hey, did you hear your mother rang?
'Cause you don't care, you don't care, you don't care
What the radio news says

The Man
02:07
|
|||
|
Birds fight amongst each other
When they're standing on the ground
But they all fly away
When the man comes around
People walking by
Have nothing to say
So they just stop and turn their heads
When the man walks their way
Are you working for the man?
Are you working for the man?
Are you working for the man?
Are you working for the man?
Ignorance is bliss
That’s what the people say
When the lies all come to light
They’re made to fade away
If you look inside
And you pull away the thread
You will hear the man confide
You might as well be dead
And if there's one thing the man can't stand
It's when someone interferes with his plan
So it's just best to stay out of the way
And let him do what he wants
But as he's walking through the rain
You can see his face start to peel away
And behind that mask of papeir mâché
Is the face of Ronald Reagan

Maybe You're Right
02:39
|
|||
|
Maybe you're right
Maybe I'm wrong
But you might just be the one I'm looking for
Maybe it's me
That is to blame
All I know is things will never be the same
'Cause you didn't want me around
When I saw you yesterday
So what else could I do
But run away, (run away), run away
Maybe it's true
What they say about me
But if it is I think I don't even know myself
'Cause maybe you're right
And maybe I'm wrong
And you might be better off without me around
Think I'm running out of time
Every hour that goes by I lose you from my sight
Maybe you're right
And maybe I'm wrong
But you might just be the one I'm looking for
Yeah, you might just be the one I'm looking for
Said you might just be the one I'm looking for

Nice and Mellow
02:13
|
|||
|
I’m gonna give myself the benefit of the doubt
'Cause walking down the road I’m watching you
And if you seem to fall; I’ll briskly walk back to my door
'Cause I’m sure there are others watching too
But it’s okay
Please don’t fly away
The rain falls heavily as I look in my memory
To try and find a footprint or a clue
Because I know I’ll never find a reason for the letters
That I’ll never ever send to you
And if you stay
Please drop by my way
You know I’ll find a way to really brighten up your day
I’m dropping hints but you don’t have a clue
I may seem nice and mellow when my legs are turned to jello
Laughing at an inside joke with you
And if you say
It could be today
There is a way
You can make my day

Dream Sequence
01:59
|

Woke up in a dream
Didn't know what to do
You were looking at me
I was looking at you
In the store window
I could see
Your face's reflection
But you couldn't see me
So I kept walking down the street
Woke up that morning
I woke up laughing
I woke up singing
I woke up crying
Woke up in a dream...

Joe Johnson
02:22

|
The closest he’ll ever get
To a third world country is his own flat
And when he’s out of doors
He wears his sunscreen and his hat
Look inside his wallet we’ll
Find coffee cards he’ll never fill
He likes his paperbacks
Like his trashy cars, all secondhand off Gumtree
You won’t notice him in photographs
Because he isn’t really fat
He’s an average Joe
He’s an average John
You will see him twice on most weekdays
He’s an average Joe
He’s an average John
You will see his face
And then walk away
When he has free time
He’ll sit down and watch channel nine
He wears the same T-shirt
Every day, 'cause one girl said it looks cool
Line up at the door
To be the first to buy a video game from that store
He’ll quote movie lines
To try and make himself look fine
Twisting in his seat
From the Swedish store where he likes to eat
You won’t notice him 'til it’s way to late
Cause he’s trained to act a certain way
By commercial ads
By the fashion fads
He is just a slave
To the greedy banks
By the TV shows
Buy this new smartphone
He is just a pawn
In this system of stashed dough

Solar eclipse, hole in the sun
I guess I missed out on all the fun
Everyone was staring up at the sky
But I was just standing and wondering why
It was a solar eclipse, a hole in the sun
The chance of a lifetime and now it's all gone
I'll mark my calendar for the next time
In 2082, the stars will align
Solar eclipse
Solar eclipse
Solar eclipse
Solar eclipse

Upgrade

She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s letting you down
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s turning you round
She wants an upgrade
It’s why she’s turning you inside out
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s making you frown
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s all black and brown
She wants an upgrade
And you better not slow her down
Gonna have to buy her a brand new dress
Gonna have to buy yourself some less
She wants new stuff and you better keep her happy
Go and get yourself a haircut
Clean your room, make an impression
If she leaves you you won’t feel so sappy
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s letting you down
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s turning you round
She wants an upgrade
It’s why she’s turning you inside out
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s making you frown
She wants an upgrade
That’s why she’s all black and brown
She wants an upgrade
And you better not slow her down
She wants an upgrade

Sleep to Dream
03:47
|

I haven't been dreaming lately
Though I guess you have to sleep to dream
Aspiration, inspiration, devastation, desperation
I see them all as the same thing
Some days I hurt all over; I don't know how to feel better
I wonder if I know what's best for me
I can't tell if my friends care, do they help or just make things worse?
These days I can't trust myself
I'm upside down and I've lost count of things I have left to do
And I know I will just add more
I feel a little empty; these days I think there's a hole
Subtracted, there's nothing left
I haven't been sleeping lately
Though I guess you have to care to sleep
Every night I watch the clock; I always know what's going on
It's never like time gets away from me
I'm not who I want to be
I don't know who I want to be
I feel trapped in uncertainty
I'm not who I want to be
I don't know who I want to be
I feel like I'm coming apart

Plastic Dinosaurs
02:45

Plastic dinosaurs on the ceiling
Plastic dinosaurs in the drain
Plastic dinosaurs in the oven
I think that I'm going insane
You can close your eyes
And turn off the lights
But the plastic dinosaurs will still be there when you wake up
Green army men line up one by one
And raise up their plastic guns
You can't hide under the covers
You can't hide under the rug
Close your windows
And lock your doors
The plastic army is fighting in a plastic war
Now there's plastic dinosaurs on the ceiling
Plastic dinosaurs in the drain
Plastic dinosaurs in the oven
Plastic dinosaurs feel no pain
Close your eyes
And say goodnight
'Cause the plastic dinosaurs won't be there when you wake up
'Cause the plastic dinosaurs won't be there when you wake up

All Around the World
02:53
|

All around the world
People go around
Knocking at your door
Waiting for a sound
One that never comes
And all around the world
They listen everyday
They wanna hear that lovely voice
But you have nothing to say
So they sit and wait
Keep on knocking just like every day before
But I don't know if I'll answer the door
Someday you'll get what you've been waiting for
But I don't know if you'll answer the door
All around the world
Things don't go their way
It's really only common sense
It happens everyday
Must I always say
Keep on knocking just like every day before
But I don't know if I'll answer the door
Someday you'll get what you've been waiting for
But I don't know if you'll answer the door

When the days come
Washing through
If you saw me
From the sill
Looking over
Upon the town
In the morning
I was alone
Taking notice
Of the sound
In the evening
As soft as silk
Melts like tissue
In my throat
Always hiding
From myself
Underwater
It's hard to breathe
I'm having trouble
Trying to stand
Spiders crawling
Up my arms
Summer came too early this year
Winter, I'm never coming back
Summer came too early this year
Winter, I'm never coming back
Summer came too early this year
Winter, I'm never coming back
Summer came too early this year
Winter, I'm never coming back
