It’s been so long since I’ve felt that beat
The pounding of my heart as I try to speak
Walk with me in colors, speak to me in song.
You are all I ask for. I want to fall.
I’m howling at the dark, I hear no reply.
I know there’s a light, it just escapes my view.
So walk with me in colors, speak to me in song.
You are all I ask for. I want to fall in love.
Oh universe, give me a sign that I’m doing something right.
Oh morning dew, talk to me more about me and you.
Oh budding flower, can you give me the hour?
Oh restless wave, will you take my breath away?
Oh rays of dawn, show to me your summer fawn
Oh leaves of green, speak to me of what you mean
You’re sitting there, falling backwards in your chair.
You crack a smile. Can’t we stay here a while?
Oh universe, give me a sign that I’m doing something right.
Oh universe, give me a sign. Give me a sign.
Oh universe, give me a sign that I’m doing something right.
Oh universe, give me a sign. Give me a sign.

Ghost of Future

Ghost of Future,
I feel your magnetism drawing me
Percussive waves in my bones
Ghost of Future,
I can’t shake, I can’t move
I’m under a spell…
Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me
Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me
Give me something, something to hold to, something I can miss
Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me
Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me
So many things that were unsaid as we danced around
Ghost of Future,
I can’t escape the pull of your gravity
No matter how hard I try
Ghost of Future,
I don’t know what it is,
There’s something about her…
Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me
Speak to me, why don’t you speak to me
Give me something, something to hold to, something I can miss
Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me
Talk to me me, why don’t you talk to me
So many things that were unsaid as we danced around
Sometimes we fade…

Fake
04:52

I think I might be faking it, I think I might be substituting for ya
And what if I am? Isn’t that alright?
I think I might be faking it, I think I might be putting on an act
Am I any good? Do I convince myself?
How can we expect not to change one bit?
We are humans and humans love to grow
Still every time I think of you, of you baby, oh it feels so good
You still feel so good
I think I might be faking it, I think I might be substituting for ya
And what if I am? Isn’t that alright?
I think I might be faking it, I think I might be putting on an act
Am I any good? Do I convince myself?
Sometimes I wish we could talk for hours
Sometimes life is like taking showers
Every time I think I’m clean of you, baby
You get back on me. You get back on me girl.
I think I might be faking it, I think I might be substituting for ya
And what if I am? Isn’t that alright?
I think I might be faking it, I think I might be putting on an act
Am I any good? Do I convince myself?
I think we might be faking it, I think we might be substituting for us
And what if we are? Isn’t that alright?
I think we might be faking it. I think we might be putting on a show.
Are we any good? Do we convince ourselves?

Gemini

|

I'm inhuman.
I never meant to make you feel this way.
I'm the bad guy,
Thinking of what could have been.
You're a good thing.
Why did I have to fuck it up?
Was it my birth sign?
Am I just a Gemini?

Far
04:50
|

Seems like I’m here again
Guess I am losing touch
It’s been far too long, far too long to feel this way
In your house, in your house I will stay.
One last time, one last time I was yours
One last look, one last look you were mine
In a glimpse of the light, I was lost to the night
If I should stay with you, find me under, swimming blue.
Seems like I went too far
Don’t know where you are
I have looked around, looked around and lost myself
Clarity, clarity for someone else
One last time, one last time I was yours
One last look, one last look you were mine
In a glimpse of the light, I was lost to the night
If I should stay with you, find me under, swimming blue.

Tower
05:47
|

You know it broke my heart to hear
You won’t let anyone near.
Build your tower, wage your war.
Just remember what it’s for.
She’s got to let go, let go to live
She’s got to let go, let go to live
I believe we can overcome anything,
Search in the heart of the matter.
Going down that dark 'n winding road,
Shine a different light.
I heard you’re sealing up your life
You know you can’t hide from the knife
Rebuild your tower, but give it legs.
Feet to stand on, to walk away
She’s got to let go, let go to live
She’s got to let go, let go to live
I believe we can overcome anything,
Search in the heart of the matter.
Going down that dark 'n winding road,
Shine a different light.
Speak to me softly as I’m falling.
Speak to me softly as I hit the ground.
She’s got to let go, let go to live
She’s got to let go, let go to live
I believe we can overcome anything,
Search in the heart of the matter.
Going down that dark 'n winding road,
Shine a different light.

New Groove
04:55
|

I found a new groove
I found a new way
Like a strawberry shake without the taste
It’s my day-to-day
Life in the mundane
Drowning in this catatonic state
Let’s be cars and drive away
From this, I know we can escape
Though I must admit
In this routine, it’s easy to forget.
This is how we deal
Grooving at every meal
Dancing on our heels, we’re locked inside
As long as I move,
I think I’m alive
So I keep the motion, keep the motion.
Let’s be cars and drive away
From this, I know we can escape
Though I must admit
In this routine, it’s easy to forget.
Let’s be birds and fly away
With wings of gold, we can resist
You go north and I’ll go south
It just may be better to forget.

Salt
03:36

You taste like salt
You taste like salt
You taste like salt
You taste like salt
You asked me if I was gay,
I had to promise I was not gay,
That I was not gay.
I guess you must have been betrayed,
You must have been betrayed,
By curious eyes.
It seems to me there must be something wrong
You’re closing down the bar for much too long
You taste like salt…
You’re dancing standing still.
You know you’re dancing standing still,
And you don’t know why.
You move my hands around.
You know you move my hands around,
And you don’t ask why
You taste like salt
You taste like salt
You taste like salt
You taste like salt
It seems to me there must be something wrong
You’re closing down the bar for much too long
You taste like salt…
