Waiting For You
04:49
|
|||
Everything I
Everything I want is out of my reach
Open my eyes
Open my eyes when there’s something to see
To See
Everything I
Everything I want has got to be real
Open my hands
Open my hands when there’s something to feel
To feel
To feel
I’m just waiting for
A little something more
I get lost inside
From time to time
I’m just waiting for
A little something more
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
You
Take what you want
Take what you want I’ve got nothing to lose
How many times
How many times can I let it slip through
Slip through
Slip through
I’m just waiting for
A little something more
I get lost inside
From time to time
I’m just waiting for
A little something more
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
You
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for you
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for you
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for you
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for you
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for you
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for
I’m just waiting for

I Won't Change
05:09
|
|||
I won’t change
You know I won’t
If it’s in my heart
It’s in my bones
I won’t leave
Until I’m through
It’s not up to me
It’s not up to you
I don’t want to worry anymore
I don’t want to worry anymore
I want to find the answers
I want to be set free
I’ve found no gold horizons
I’ve found no dignity
So I look to tomorrow
But it’s so hard to see
I know something better
Is waiting for me
I won’t change
You know I won’t
If it’s in my heart
It’s in my bones
I don’t want to worry anymore
I don’t want to worry anymore
I want to find the answers
I want to be set free
I’ve found no gold horizons
I’ve found no dignity
So I look to tomorrow
But it’s so hard to see
I know something better
Is waiting for me

Modern Mann
08:11
|
|||
I'm a modern man, a modern man
Got a chip in my brain, wires for veins, a modern man
I'm a modern man, with mechanical hands
Levers for knees, part tape-machine, a modern man
A simulation program
Implanted in my spline
Updates the latest version of me
Modern man
I'm not a thing of the past, I'm not second hand
My expressions are real, my sensors feel, I’m a modern man
Ones and zeros are all I read
Inscription schemes symmetric keys and high tech magazine
A simulation program
Implanted in my spline
Updates the latest version of me
Modern man
Sometimes I feel as though I need
A pulse, a soul, lungs to breathe
I plug myself in each night and dream
To have and love my own family
Modern man
Modern man
Modern man
A simulation program
Implanted in my spline
Updates the latest version of me
Modern man
5.0.1

THE PINES
07:04
|
|||
Hummin’ along
Waiting for the bell to ring
Is this the end
Listen for the girl to sing
Further up the road
Where will we go
Who’s got the time
To find some peace of mind
I won’t be the same
You won’t be the same
We won’t be the same
Anymore
A tunnel of green
Racing us through the pines
If we weren’t here
Would anyone seem to mind
Is it all too late
For us to see the way
I still hope to find
A little peace of mind
I won’t be the same
You won’t be the same
We won’t be the same
Anymore, no
I won’t be the same
You won’t be the same
We won’t be the same
Anymore

Exist
04:18
|
|||
You are the setting sun
Dancing on the water
A smile for everyone
A gentle rising moon
Miles in the distance
Always watching over you
I want to feel what’s real
While we’re still here
As long as we have each other
And don’t let go
I want to feel what’s real
While we’re still here
As long as we exist together
And don’t let go
Everything I’ve dreamed
Is here for us
And more perfect than it seems
Help me father time
Please give us a chance
A chance to make it right
I want to feel what’s real
While we’re still here
As long as we have each other
And don’t let go
I want to feel what’s real
While we’re still here
As long as we exist together
And don’t let go
So what do you believe
Is behind the unseen
If only we could know
If only we could go
I want to feel what’s real
While we’re still here
As long as we have each other
And don’t let go
I want to feel what’s real
While we’re still here
As long as we exist together
And don’t let go
And don’t let go

Kiss The World Goodbye
04:08
|
|||
Say a prayer and kiss the world goodbye
It’s no secret between you and I
We’ll figure it out
Yeah Figure it out
Like a diamond in a velvet sky
Our existence is just passing by
It’s just passing by
I always thought
That we would be together
I always thought
That we would last forever
Years are flying as we outrun time
Our love is the kind that can not die
Yeah it can not die
You can’t stop it
You can’t change it
You can’t resist
You can’t break it
You can’t slow it
You can’t win
I always thought
That we would be together
I always thought
That we would last forever
I always thought
That we would be together
I always thought
That we would last forever
I always thought
That we would be together
I always thought
That we would live forever

Morning Light
04:36
|
|||
I’m gonna give you to the morning light
Pullback the curtain and let’s see inside
It’s time I carried on my own way
Never mind them
Never mind them
I’m only waiting for the sun to rise again
I’m only waiting for the sun to rise again
Needless torture I can feel the sting
Years of abuse, I haven’t learned a thing
Somebody got up and turned off the light
Never mind them
Never mind them
I’m only waiting for the sun to rise again
I’m only waiting for the sun to rise
I’m just waiting for the sun to rise
A little help with the morning light
Let’s get together and work it out
I want to love you, but I don’t know how
I’m only waiting for the sun to rise again
I’m only waiting for the sun to rise
I’m just waiting for the sun to rise
A little help with the morning light
Let’s get together and work it out
I want to love you, but I don’t know how
I’m just waiting for the sun to rise
A little help with the morning light
Let’s get together and work it out
I want to love you, but I don’t know how
I want to love you, but I don’t know how
I want to love you, but I don’t know

I Want To Be Free
04:46
|
|||
I always feel a little beaten up
When I step inside your door
Some may say it’s a waste of time
A never ending war
Every time I come around
There’s no love here to be found
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
Please excuse if I’m running late
I check out sometimes
Change is hard and I’m
I’m doing my best
When it’s me against my mind
Every time I come around
There’s no love here to be found
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
Just breathe
Breathe
Every time I come around
There’s no love here to be found
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free
I want to be free

Sunset To Sunset
03:11
|

Sunset to sunset
Working every day
Sunset to sunset
I’m trying to find a way
Back to you
Back to who
I wanna be
Back to something
Back to somewhere
I believe
Sunset to sunset
Watching days go by
Sometimes I wonder
If I’m still alive
Take me back to you
Back to who
I wanna be
Back to something
Back to somewhere
I believe
I believe
I believe
I believe
Sunset to sunset
Better days ahead
Sunset to sunset
I just need to get
Back to you
Back to who
I wanna be
Back to something
Back to somewhere
Back to you
Back to who
I wanna be
Back to something
Back to somewhere

Come To Me
05:19
|
|||
How long have I waited for you
Won’t you come to me
Shine a light so I can find my way home
Won’t you come to me
Won’t you come to me
Colors fall all around my door
Won’t you come to me
The stars look brighter than they did before
Won’t you come to me
Won’t you come to me
How long how long how long
How long how long how long
If I’d only known
If I’d only shown like you
If I’d only known
If I’d only shown like you
I’ll keep the lights on
How long have I waited for you
Won’t you come to me
How long how long how long
How long how long how long
How long how long how long
How long how long how long
How long
How long
How long
How long
How long
How long
How long
How long
How long

Space Between
04:12
|
|||
So you’re just venting
Respecting’s not ending
But neither is truth
I’m relentlessly vending
Not selling but sending
A message it’s pending
Offending so many
Depending on
Plenty of everything
Can you pass the TV remote
Synthetic endorphins
Emotions are orphaned
You’re whole life is corporate
Like the tube that you live in
You’ve chosen your prison
No pot to piss in
Your pants are missing
Are you listening
No more genetically modified
Homo sapiens
All I’m asking
Is for a little space between
All I’m hoping
Is for a little room to agree
Faithless and faceless
Like ads on Craigslist
College grads living in basements
Puppets as leaders
That will not lead us
Just delete us
I don’t care who pays
As long as you get your package
For free in two days
I guess the rainforests can go to hell
All I’m asking
Is for a little space between
All I’m hoping
Is for a little room to agree
Programmed by pixels
Distracted by whistles
The big machine
Devours the invisible
Frequently vibrating
Amplifying and fading
Blind to the hating
that’s waiting around every corner
All I’m asking
Is for a little space between
All I’m hoping
Is for a little room to agree

Another Life
04:51
|
|||
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
Stretched to the limits
Don’t know how quit it
Somehow it all seems wrong
Still I continue on
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
I’m on a sinking road
With everyone I know
I see a sign up ahead
And it won’t be long
I’ll find my way back home
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life
And I run and I run and I run
Towards another life

Last Flame
08:12
|
|||
The street burst into flame
Morning light is burning through the door
If we don’t meet again
You’re the one I’ll be waiting for
You will be the last flame
You will be the last flame
Its been a long while
You’ve been away erased my light
Drifting through the years
You’re the one I’ve held for all this time
You will be the last flame
You will be the last flame
You will be the last
You will be the last
The street burst into flame
Morning light is burning through the door
If we don’t meet again
You’re the one I’ll be waiting for
You will be the last flame
You will be the last flame
You will be the last flame
You will be the last
You will be the last
You will be the last
You will be the last
