Tracks



01. Secret Society

Running against the line, against the time
Wondering what the fuzz is all about
Finding a way to dream away your love
Taking it in before it takes me out

Just like a Secret Society, yeah...

02. Always The Pretenders

Maybe we forced the deal to live in some kind of blow
Maybe we broke the seal,
Cracks begin to show
Maybe we crossed the line, got everything of the ground
Maybe we lit the fuse, a habit hard to lose

All I can remember, all I can recall is you
Telling me there's been an accident
Always the pretenders, always thought that love would do
Every day I miss your, innocence

Maybe we ran the lights, somehow we caused a scene
Maybe we learn to fight, as part of our routine
Maybe we jumped the wall, suddenly tipped the scale
Maybe we tried to hard, so afraid to fail

All I can remember, all I can recall is you
Telling me there's been an, accident
Always the pretenders, always thought that love would do
Every day I miss your, innocence

Something's lost and what its worth
You and me this is our church
There is still some love 'round here

All I can remember, all I can recall is you
Telling me there's been an, accident
Always the pretenders, always thought that love would do
Every day I miss your, innocence

03. The Getaway Plan

Hey, I'm the voice in your head
A friend that you once left for dead
I've been busy, did you miss me
No, you're not paranoid, I'm back to fill the void
Did you understand, The getaway plan

I'm the shiver that runs, up your spine
A strange kind of piece of your mind
You've been lonely, I'm the only
I know you're damaged goods, you did the best you could
I think you understand, the getaway plan

Can you feel me, can you reach me
I lived a thousand lives, feels like I've just arrived
I think you understand, the getaway plan

04. Wish I Could Believe

If you let me I will
Pick up the remains
Of your day

If you let me I will
Take a hold of your hand
Tell you that you're sane

You say: give me what you've got
Give me, what you've got
Show me what we're not
There must be a plan for the every man
Give me what you can

Cause I, wish I could believe in God
So I could move ahead
I know I cant believe in God
Time to move ahead

If you let me I will
I will soften the blow
Of the forces that play

If you let me I will
I would find some grace
In the modern day

You say: give me what you've got
Give me, what you've got
Show me what we're not
There must be a plan for the every man
Give me what you can

Cause I, wish I could believe in God
So I could move ahead
I know I cant believe in God
Time to move ahead

05. Let The Children Play

My mother would tell me
Better stay in line
You gotta look for the magic
If there's a way there comes a time

My dad used to tell me
You gotta work real hard
Keep it straight and simple
From the head, then the heart

If you'd ask my brother
I know what he'd say
Let the children play

It's not where we're coming from
It's how we turn from here
We know where we want to go
We just need a line, to get us there...

My sister would show me
To land on your feet
You got to suffer fools
Before you get, life and need

So God would you tell me
Is there an other way
Let the children play

It's not where we're coming from
It's how we turn from here
We know where we want to go
We just need the line, to get us there...

My mother would tell me
Better stay in line
You gotta look for the magic
If there's a way there comes a time

It's not where we're coming from
It's how we turn from here
We know where we want to go
We just need the line, to get us there...

06. Human After All

Live, baby life is loud
We'll make it through the filth and the glory
Give, more of what you've got
Funk it up, and tell your story

For every dream that got away
We found our ordinary day
For every blue sky turning gray
We found imaginary ways
I look at you and where we are
We're human after all

Time, there's no remedy
Just hold our broken hearts together
Your touch, all that chemistry
Now I'm lost, unlikely defender

For every dream that got away
We found our ordinary day
For every blue sky turning gray
We found imaginary ways
I look at you and where we are
We're human after all

It's alright, when the day is done
It's alright, there's something better
It's alright, when the morning comes
It's alright, there's nothing better
For every dream that got away
We found our ordinary day

For every blue sky turning gray
We found imaginary ways
I look at you and where we are
We're human after all

07. Love Is Not The Enemy

Glowing on the outside
Coming by the moonlight
Looking at this blue thing
Falling by the waste time

The years keep on calling
Riding on a moonbeam
Having on a daydream

Crash the barricades, raise the alarm
We've forgotten how to feel
Break the silence, shout it out
Call the angels there's a friend in need
Love is not the enemy
Love is not the enemy

Looking at the bright side
Walking in the sunshine
Loving this blue thing
Want it in my life

The years keep on calling
Headed for Venus
No sign of life

Crash the barricades, don't be afraid
We've forgotten how to feel
Break the silence, shout it out
Call the angels there's a friend in need
Love is not the enemy
Love is not the enemy

Oh, can you feel it, does anybody care
Oh, do you need it, say a little prayer
Oh, can you feel it, does anybody care
Oh, do you need it, say a little prayer

Crash the barricades, raise the alarm
We've forgotten how to feel
Break the silence, shout it out
Call the angels there's a friend in need
Love is not the enemy
Love is not the enemy

Oh, can you feel it, does anybody care
Oh, do you need it, say a little prayer
Oh, can you feel it, does anybody care
Oh, do you need it, say a little prayer

08. A Mother's Son

There's a light, a different kind of light
When we close, we close our eyes
There's a place, a distant kind of place
We cant let go, just cant let go

There's a faith, a stronger kind of faith
It makes you try, just a little harder
There's a time, a lonely kind of time
When you know, you simply know, that you just cant fake it

A mother's son
Knows he never walks alone
No matter what, he's become
Hard as he tries, he can never give it back
Life's to short, for a mother's son

There's a rage, a silent kind of rage
It makes you live, out on the edge
There's a pain, a different kind of pain
Knowing time, will change everything, you just cant fake it

A mother's son
Knows he never walks alone
No matter what, he's become
Hard as he tries, he can never give it back
Life's to short, for a mother's son

...you just cant fake it

A mother's son
Knows he never walks alone
No matter what, he's become
Hard as he tries, he can never give it back
Life's to short, for a mother's son

There's a light, a different kind of light...

09. Forever Travelling

A voice that fly, is broken just the same
You spin this life around
You bring me where some harder soul remain
From a cold, cold place in time

And you say: I, I just know how you make me feel
You take it all the way, you send me all the way
Oh, I, I just know where I want to be
Forever wandering, forever travelling

A voice that cry, but I'm smiling just the same
You show me where to look
I was skin and bones, just circling the sun
One glimpse was all it took

And you say: I, I just know how you make me feel
You take it all the way, you send me all the way
Oh, I, I just know where I want to be
Forever wandering, forever travelling

Somewhere in my mind, I'm under the golden gate
Somewhere in my heart, remember sitting by the lake
Sometimes I cant feel, the wheel from the sky, its been turning

Oh, I, I just know how you make me feel
You take it all the way, you send me all the way
Oh, I, I just know where I want to be
Forever wandering, forever travelling

10. Brave And Beautiful Soul

I see you all cynical
It's the ammunition that you need
Here's another song about empathy
Please yourself think what you will

In her light that shines I fall apart
Her life is blessed and I don't understand
The brave and beautiful soul
Brave and beautiful soul

Here's to you all sensible
Never taken time to stand for something
Hey, the future always come round here to soon
I just cant leave here doing nothing

In her light that shines I fall apart
In her darkness, how she wins my heart
The brave and beautiful soul
Brave and beautiful soul

An emotional response
Sometimes better than an intellectual one

In her light that shines I fall apart
Her life is blessed and I don't understand
The brave and beautiful soul
Brave and beautiful soul

11. Devil Sings The Blues

Today, I'm the dirt beneath your feet
At your beckon call
Today, I'm down on my bended knees
I learned to crawl

Days like these,
It's like I never lived at all

And my heart is open
And my eyes are open
Today, I give my life to you
And my arms are open
And my faith is open
Today, the devil sings the blues

Tonight, angels presence fill the room
So this is how it feels
Tonight, the devil takes the long way round
There will be no deal

Times, like these
It's like I never lived at all

And my heart is open
And my eyes are open
Tonight, I give my life to you
And my arms are open
And my faith is open
Tonight, the devil sings the blues

And my heart is open
And my eyes are open
Tonight, I give my life to you
And my arms are open
And my faith is open
Tonight, the devil sings the blues
