The Deep
03:57

morning fever, creeps on in
takes over you, takes over you
strong believer, to no end
all that you do, all that you do is
give yourself away, never hesitate
though something hard to name tells you
the light has changed, oh changed
sudden as it came now you’re on your own again
and you wonder what you did to deserve this kind of pain
and how it all unfolds in your arms so easily
leave the light on, next time that you dive into the deep
as before her, over time
all will be well, all will be well
overpowered, strong disguise
you tell yourself, you tell yourself
well, was it worth the waste, and would the devil care?
a resolution wavering in open air
sudden as it came now you’re on your own again
and you wonder why it is that you’re always losing all your bets
and how it all unfolds in your arms so easily
leave the light on, next time that you dive into the deep
the deep

Pull It Together
03:31

I don’t know why I
Can’t pull it together, pull it together
I don’t know why it’s
So hard to remember, when it was better
Stuck on a cloud again
this time i can’t come down
It was an accident
oh, won’t you help me out
I made the same mistake, yes I know (know)
but I don’t
I don’t know why I
Can’t pull it together, pull it together
I don’t know why it’s
So hard to remember, when it was better
And everybody else looks like a tiny ant
against the majesty of all the blue and green
I love the view from here, way up high
but still I
I don’t know why I
Can’t pull it together, pull it together
I don’t know why it’s
So hard to remember, when it was better
Out on a limb, out on a cloud
I can’t explain it but I can’t come down
Out on a limb, out on a cloud
I can’t explain it but I can’t come down
I don’t know why I
Can’t pull it together, pull it together
I don’t know why it’s
So hard to remember, when it was better

Once More, With Feeling
04:18
|
|||
|
Used to be the you and me eternally alive
Looking for all-inclusive
Started off as nice and soft as making love all night
Now it's exchanging juices
How disappointing
How you enjoy things
You make it boring
And isn't that fucked up?
Tied to the ceiling
Once more, with feeling
Could you stop breathing
And take it from the top?
What to do to set the mood and let the wheel of time
Stop for a single moment
How did we get so busy, erasing all our highs
We used to rock at rollin'
How disappointing
How you enjoy things
You make it boring
And isn't that fucked up?
Tied to the ceiling
Once more, with feeling
Could you stop breathing
And take it from the top?
So remain the yesterdays as cold as autumn skies
Stuck on eternal Wednesday (Oh)
Up and down and down and out
The end is now in sight
Riding a weighed-down freight-train (Oh)
How disappointing
How you enjoy things
You make it boring
And isn't that fucked up?
Tied to the ceiling
Once more, with feeling
Could you stop breathing
And take it from the top?
Isn’t that fucked up?

Suzy Dance

Baby, do you see what you can’t see?
To what you can relate
I can be your guide
When the twilight comes down hard again
So take a little dive into my mind
Backstroke and save, save it for the night
When you’re tongue-tied
Giving your guess away
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Read the signs
Enough, enough, enough, enough
Of that word you like
Suzy, dance with me
On a sandy beach
Just me and you, I can’t wait to spend the afternoon
Suzy, dance with me
On a sandy beach
Just me and you, I can’t wait to spend the afternoon
Summer’s in the sky, such a bright light
Pacific palisade, over by the bay
On a Saturday, seaside serenade
C-C-California style, on a big pile
A little early still, don’t you wanna try?
For another time’s only half the thrill
Get up, get up, get up, get up
Read the signs
Enough, enough, enough, enough
Of that word you like
Suzy, dance with me
On a sandy beach
Just me and you, I can’t wait to spend the afternoon
Suzy, dance with me
On a sandy beach
Just me and you, I can’t wait to spend the afternoon

Read the signs
I think about it most all the time
Thinking back
To something I missed
in the back of your mind
Two satellites, two satellites,
Uh-oh
Put the stars out of line
Three satellites
Four
maybe more?
Uh-oh
Round and round
in physical space
with all gravity gone
Off the ground
invisible weight
only moving along
Two satellites, two satellites,
Uh-oh
Put the stars out of line
Three satellites, four, maybe five?
Uh-oh
Two satellites, two satellites,
Uh-oh
Put the stars out of line
Three satellites
Four
maybe more?
Uh-oh

You Live In My Phone
04:33
|
|||
|
I like the way you never change
Even when I'm acting strange
You're the perfect friend in every way
I never need to raise my voice
'Cause you're here, if not by choice
I will love you every single day
Every time I think of you
You lift me up and out of view
You live in my phone (Woo-ooh, woo-ooh)
When I'm lonely you're my hit
I can lose myself in it
You live in my phone (Woo-ooh, woo-ooh)
Most people tend to get me down
I feel left out in a crowd
And every day I'm drifting further still
That's why I need you on my team
You're the safest company
A second empty is your job to fill
Every time I think of you
You lift me up and out of view
You live in my phone (Woo-ooh, woo-ooh)
When I'm lonely you're my hit
I can lose myself in it
You live in my phone (Woo-ooh, woo-ooh)
You're like a drug
In the palm of my hand, I'm stuck
I can't help it, I reach for you
Like I'm cravin' a hit
I forget the things I used to do
You're the one that I wake up to see
And you're the last one, before I fall asleep
I never thought I'd fall in this deep (Ah)
I never thought I'd fall in this deep (Ah)
I never thought I'd fall in this deep (Ah)
I never thought I'd fall in this deep

Braver Times
04:31
|
|||
|
In early sleep
there comes a whisper
from your pillowcase
Speaks what you’ll repeat
and all believe it’s true
‘It’s such a good thing to let good things grow
You’re such a good thing, it’s all good: think so.’
You move easily
the map before you like a melody
moving blissfully beneath the sheet of truth
Cos everyday, every day is another illusion
On the road, on the road we’re all moving down
Give or take
Take-away
You’re tongue-tied and muted
Run along, run along in slowmotion now
When the salt dries on your skin
shake the doubt: we’ll meet again
in braver times
You’re in ecstasy
When all your questions seem to multiply
There’s a quick release
A soma slumber, smooth
Cos everyday, every day is another illusion
On the road, on the road we’re all moving down
Give or take
Take-away
You’re tongue-tied and muted
Run along, run along in slowmotion now
Now you know, you know
Now you know, you know
Now you know, you know
Now you know, you know

I wasn’t looking for a hidden sign to
fall into place (fall into)
got it together, made a person of my name
but suddenly the words are hard to find, so
far out of range (far out, oh)
curse the magic you’re the master of again
Oh, I’m not in control
Oh no, not at all
I can’t remember how to talk to you
It’s everything that I wanna do
but every time that I look at you, I get lost
Do you remember how to talk to me?
Can you relate, do you disagree?
Well tell me now, are you over me?
I’m still crushed!
‘Hold out your hand and look me in the eye’, you said to me (said to me)
But the walls are coming down, and I’m beneath
What’s the story, where’s your other half?
Yeah, where is she? (where is she?)
Just forget it, let the answer die with me.
Oh, I don’t wanna know
Oh no, no I don’t
I can’t remember how to talk to you
It’s everything that I wanna do
but every time that I look at you, I get lost
Do you remember how to talk to me?
Can you relate, do you disagree?
Well tell me now, are you over me?
I’m still crushed!

Day's Gonna Come
03:21
|

|
When your friends head to bed again
You feel yourself comin’ down
There’s a voice in your head, it says
when there’s no one else around
Another day, day’s gonna come
One way or another, one way or another
Another way, to carry on will come
One day or another, one day or another
Such a strange thing to follow through
when your leaders tell you lies
Hear a child speak a teenage truth
Hold your heart up to the light, and you try
to read the signs
’til every move you make feels out of line
and these days you get frightened by the weather
history is made up by the blind cos you hide
when it all comes down upon your head
down upon your head
another day
another day
Another day, day’s gonna come
One way or another, one way or another
Another way, to carry on will come
One day or another, one day or another

Playground Love

'm a high school lover
And you're my favorite flavor
Love is all, all my soul
You're my playground love
Yet my hands are shaking
I feel my body remains
Themes no matter, I'm on fire
On the playground, love
You're the piece of gold
The flushes all my soul
Extra time, on the ground
You're my playground love
Anytime, anyway
You're my playground love

From Here
03:50

Underline,
make another move, the time is on our side
Yours and mine
strange enough the war is only half on time
Where do we go from here? She said
It’s breaking my heart
Try as I may to hold together
But it’s falling apart
Best believe
Company is only ever two or three
Water down
Water down your wine, oh darling
I’ll show you how
Where do we go from here? She said
It’s breaking my heart
Try as I may to hold together
But it’s falling apart
Where do we go from here? She said
It’s breaking my heart
Try as I may to hold together
But it’s falling apart

Forget Forgive
03:11
|
|||
|
Strange things happen in our sleep
dreams follow into day
I’m hollow
Don’t tire yourself out
toss turning in your head,
don’t wallow
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
Bad thoughts pushing at the neck
Puts pressure on the chest
Calm sorrow
Look close, even closer
It’s not black, it’s just the shade
just shadow
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
No one knows
We just pretend
Putting on a strong face to our friends
We’re on the mend
Phone calls, unexpected
doorbells echo through the hall
so empty
Old friends un-rejected
Cold spells, followed by the sun
it will be
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
Forget
Forgive
