DANCING WITH ANGELS
Don't you think we spent enough time
Down here on the ground?
And all we ever found
Was bad stuff laying around
Don't you think that we deserve
To make it round that final curve
And find a way, it is
Love, just love
And dance with angels
I'm rising up above it baby
I'm dancing with angels
I'm rising up above it
You know there's a better way
You know it's here today
You know we don't have to look
You know what we have to do
We've got to rise above it, rise above it
Find the love inside
Can't you feel it flowing in, can't you feel it flowing out
Dancing with angels, I'm dancing with angels
I'm rising up above it baby rising up above it
Dancing with angels through clouds of joy
Come on and join me every girl and boy
Don't you think that deserve
To make it round that final curve
And find a way to love it, just love it
And dance with angels up above it
Find the love inside and dance with angels up above it

ANOTHER RIDE

ANOTHER RIDE
Some see the dog, some see the chain
But I feel the waterfall
Running, running through my brain
Some say when they get old, the river runs slow and cold
But I feel the river flowing
Hot and deep inside my soul
Some see the trap, some don't look back
But I love to take me a ride
Right off the edge of the map
Some see the sky, as way too high
But I see that it goes on forever
No one ever has to die
Oh baby please don’t stop now
Oh no, no please, no, not now
Oh can’t you see that all I wanna do is take another ride
All I want is another ride.
If the car won't go, and the plane won't fly
I'll just haul myself up into
Up into the empty sky
Some see the cage, somethings never change
But I feel the world that surround me have
Flow and change all the time
Sometimes I sleep , sometimes I dream
But that don't mean I have to keep
Using the same machine
You have gasoline, all I see is smoke
But I hope that someday
You will see just what I mean
Oh baby please don’t stop now
Oh no, no please, no, not now
Oh can’t you see that all I wanna do is take another ride
All I want is another ride.
Some look in the mirror, see sinner or saint
But I see the eyes of a man
Who wants to be somewhere he ain’t
Some say the world's like this, some say it's like that
There's even some crazy bastards
Say that the world is flat
Some say they will, some say they won’t
But if you know what's good for you
You won't tell me that I can't
Oh baby please don’t stop now
Oh no, no please, no, not now
Oh can’t you see that all I wanna do is take another ride
All I want is another ride.
My eyes are wide, got nothing to hide
Can't you see, can’t you see all I want
Is to take another ride
Some think the mountains, hold up the sky
Some think the truth can be found
Buried deep inside a lie
Some see the dog, some see the chain
But I feel the waterfall
Running, running through my brain
Oh baby please don’t stop now
Oh no, no please, no, not now
Oh can’t you see that all I wanna do is take another ride
All I want is another ride.
All I want is another ride … with you … baby.

BRAVE NEW WORLD

BRAVE NEW WORLD
Isolated
I look to those all around me
Those who were lost and somehow found me
Standing alone out in the street
Staring down at my own feet
Isolated - in times of fear and woe
Isolated - we all believe the holy Joe
In times of fear and woe
We all believe the holy Joe
Who promises to make us safe again
So we can just get back to being insane … insane!
Crawl out again,crawl out again
To find your brave, yeah your brave new world
Welcome - welcome
'Cos we're all staring at screens
Forgetting our dreams while we're getting reamed
'Cos we're all staring at screens
Forgetting our dreams while we're getting reamed
Your brave new world
Washed down the drain, washed down the drain
Those who survive will crawl back
Out, out again to find their brave yeah their brave new world
Welcome to your brave new world
Welcome to your brave new world

HONESTY

HONESTY
Honesty - this honesty - honesty
Well it’s a simple proposition
I trust you and you trust me
And then we see where it takes us to
This honesty
Honesty - this honesty - Honesty
It’s such a small, simple thing - this honesty
It’s such a small, simple, strong, vital thing - This honesty, honesty.
Is this fragile thing that we hold between us
Really going to be the end of all of us
If we break it, if we break it
Why would we break this honesty
And lay waste to all we see
Honesty - honesty - this honesty
Why did you do what you did?
Kept it hidden
Said you didn’t do it, flat out denial
Eye to eye
Denial right to my face
Well it piercing my heart like a lance
But I’m giving you another chance
To tell me, that you did, what I know that you did
And you did
Honesty, this honesty, is the key to everything
It’s the key, can’t you see, this honesty
It’s life and love to all of us
This honesty
It’s so easy, it’s so easy
Honesty

ROBOGIRL

ROBOGIRL
I’m sitting home, I’m watching the news
Trying to get a point of view, trying to figure out what is true
I watched all the shows, now I don’t know what I know
I know I ran out of beer and my stash is running low
I gotta get out of here, hell, maybe if I run
It’s just two blocks to the store
Be back before the devil knows I'm gone
I pull on my hoody, my fastest running shoes
Grab a bag and a mask, what else I got to lose?
Now I’m out the door, I might as well try to score
Streets quiet as the tomb, mist swirling round my feet
The is air thick and kind of slick, I find it hard to push on down the street
I make it to the corner of Lexington and Main
There’s a blood beat that’s pounding deep inside my hungry brain
Can't seem to focus, the store must be somewhere near
Yeah there's the neon sign but it's looking kind of smeared, blurred and weird.
I better watch out, think I better watch out,
You better watch out, watch your back
The walls have eyes, and everybody's in disguise
They can see into your dreams, and nothing means what it means what it means
Better watch your back Jack, better get your fill Jill
Something busted loose out of there
And I don't know what it is but it's headed this way
Something busted loose out of there
And I'm not sure what it is but it's headed this way, headed this way.
Everybody run, everybody hide,
Everybody keep your head down, boy you better stay inside
Something busted loose out of there
And I don't know what it is but it's headed this way
Looks kinda ... say, what is that it looks kinda...say what is that it looks kinda ... say what is that it looks kinda like a ... girl
And she's coming through the mist
And I like the way she moves but there's something mechanical
Something that I missed
Nah this ain't right
Hey baby what you doing out on the street at night?
You're walking all wrong, you singing
The wrong words to a different song
I don't know but it looks like you could be a robochick - nah
I don't know but it looks like you could be a robogirl
Nu-uh, that can't be, they don't have that right? Right. Right.
Nah, they don't have that
And if they did they wouldn't let it out loose on its own at night
Make a boy go downtown do a whole bunch of stuff that just ain't right.
There's a robogirl, on the loose (mechanical)
Nah that ain't right, come on man, it's fake news.

BACK UP AGAIN

BACK UP AGAIN
I feel your hand on my head
I feel you push me back down on the bed
The weight of all this terrible news
Has got me thinking there's nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
What do I do lying down here
In this twisted wreckage where nothing is clear
No matter, one thing won't leave me alone
Got to come back up and carry on
I go down, I go down, I go down
But somehow I claw my way back up
I go down, I go down but somehow I claw my way
Back up off the floor - back up again - back up again
I'm well acquainted with down being up
But equally I will never give up
You can ask me where do I find the strength
But I've no answers that make any sense
It's in the nature of every human being
That's why I'm seeing what I'm seeing
People never do what is expected
They never behave like anyone expected
I go down, I go down, I go down
But I claw my way back up
Yeah, I go down, I go down but I claw my way back up
Back up again
I go down, I go down, I go down
But I claw my way up off this floor
Back up again, back up again
I'm back up again, I'm back up again

THROUGH THE WALL

THROUGH THE WALL
Trying to find my way out of this maze
All alone and I am going crazy
Sleeping under constellations by the side of a desert road
No it ain't no consolation when I'm all alone
Through the wall
I'm just trying to make myself real clear
I'm dying of thirst when the river is right here
Looking for highway signs that I cannot read
A clear road ahead is all I need
Through the wall
I'm just trying to make myself real clear
I'm dying of thirst when the river is right here
I want to put my hands through the wall
Reach out, somehow touch you all
I want to walk right through that wall
Reach out, reach out touch you all
I want to put my hands through the wall
Got to walk right through that wall
Got to be a way to walk through the wall
I want to walk through that wall - I’m gonna walk through that wall
Watch me go
I wanna put my hand through the wall, I want to reach you girl
I wanna step right off the screen into your private world
I wanna put my arms around you feel your heat on mine
I wanna drive us both downtown and have a real good time
I wanna feel your lips on mine a kiss without a mask
After all the shit we been through is that too much to ask?
I wanna hold you close, I want to hold you near
I wanna watch the sun go down and whisper in your ear
I wanna be a man for you baby I want to be all yours
I wanna roll right off the bed down onto the floor
I wanna go to the movies baby drive us to Lookout Point
I wanna watch the sun come up and smoke another joint
I want the life of a natural man with you right by my side
I'm sick of being all alone baby sick of feeling tired
I want the life of a natural man with you right by my side
I'm sick of being all alone...

DIGGING THE SAME HOLE

DIGGING IN THE SAME HOLE
Because you know me, you know me, stubborn as can be
And there ain't no one gonna tell me I ain't
I might not know what I want but if I go for it, go for it
Digging in the same hole, I'm in so deep
How far I've gone, how far I've gone
Digging in the same hole looking for something different
Something different,
I'm digging in the same hole trying
To remember what I meant when I started
You know me, you know me, I'm as stubborn as can be
And there ain't nobody gonna tell me, tell me that I ain't
Ain't nobody gonna tell me that I can't (digging in the same hole)
'Cos I can and I will (I'm in so deep)
Ain't nobody gonna tell me that I can't 'cos I can and I will
Digging in the same hole, trying hard to rocck the same roll
Digging in the same hole, I'm in so deep, tell me, tell me that I ain't
I might not know what I want but I'm gonna go for it, yeah go for it
Ain't nobody gonna tell me that I can't
And I will, I will, oh I will, you see I am, I am!
What the hell else am I gonna do?
Digging deep
I'm digging in the same hole, I'm trying to rock the same roll
I lie in the dark staring at the ceiling
Searching for something, anything other than what I'm feeling
I'm digging in the same hole, I'm trying to rock the same roll
I'm trying to gather all the pieces together to make
Something that's whole, something that's whole
I want something that's whole, I don't want a little piece no more
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all to make some kind of sense
Kinda sense, I just wish it would all make some kind of beautiful peaceful sense
It's not too much to ask, as I look up from the bottom of this hole
At the edge, framing the sky, I just wanna know why
Why couldn't it please just make some kind of damn sense
Digging in the same hole, digging in the same hole
(Hey) If we just climbed out (what are you doing?) and took a look around (pick up that shovel, get back to work) Tried to remember the feeling of solid ground (hey, pick up that shovel I said and get back to work) Of sky and air and water and the laughter of children (pick up that shovel) who are happy not hungry - sky and (hey get back here) water and wind (where the hell do you think you're going?) and the cool clean air against our faces (this is your last warning) I'm gonna start climbing (go on then and get the hell outta here) climbing (loser) climbing I'm gonna start climbing (who needs ya?) climbing (ain't nothing up there) climbing
I don't care how long it takes
Don't care how many steps I gotta take
I'm gonna climb outta this damn hole
Out of the same damn hole.
I can see...the land...under the sky.
