Around Again

By Love and not Fate
I see what I've made
And when I eat the cake
My halo is the plate
x2
I guess we're going
Around again
Half empty glass
Lies shattered on the floor
Your god's wondering
What it all was for
x2
so what was it all for
I guess we're going
Around again
Logic limits life
None can say why
Dontcha even try
Better mystify
I say logic limits life
None can answer "why"
So grab a fork and knife
and get a slice of pie
I guess we're goin
Around again

I Need Music

I need music
More than my life
When I can hear it
Everything's right
I need music
So play me that beat
Get me energized
If it don't stop
I'll go all night yea
I need music
Cuz without this music
I'm not myself
I start to question
my mental health
I need music
So don't push me baby
cuz push comes to shove
and I need this music
As much as your love
Don't make me choose
Cause I need music
Surround me with sound
Suspending time
Spin me around
and give me a shine
Words in my mouth
I'll make them mine
I'm bathing in
The liquid divine
I Need Music

Living The Dream
06:05
|

|
I hear your voice
but your lips aren't moving
I'm seeing orange
But I'm seeing blue and green
I'm inside the screen
We're living the dream
I go outside
And the shadows are falling
Look to the sky
And the void is calling me
I'm out on the edge
I'm at the ravine
I'm taking the leap
But I'm not asleep
I'm living the dream

Open The Gates
14:19
|

|
Now
It's finally time
We can decide
To change our fate
So
Roll back the blinds
Reset the time
And open the gates
Open the gates
Repeat all
Gather all the cash
Put it in a pile
Cover it with gas
Set it on fire
Dance on the ash
Feel your heart elate
As the markets crash
And we open the gates
Everything is coming true
Get the radio in tune
You hear me NICU
Everything is coming
Everything is coming
Static clears to find a groove
Hear the air between the two
Colors bloom behind the blue
Feel their tone to set the mood
Any melody will do
Pull one out and watch it bloom
Sure as beauty, death is true
But something new is coming through
Everything is coming true
Get the radio in tune
You hear me NICU
Everything is coming
Everything is coming
Everything is coming true
Get the radio in tune
You hear me NICU
And something new is coming
Something new is coming
Through

Way Beyond
04:10
|

|
Here in my mind
I go way beyond
Outer Space and Time
When I sing my song
First I plug a cord
Then I turn a knob
Then I press record
Then I'm really gone
I just go inside
Past my endless thoughts
Deep and deeper down
Then I'm really lost
You can try it too
If you really want
All you got to do
Is use what you got
And we go way beyond

One Night
05:45

When the stars all came together
We were there
We were standing to the left of
Everywhere
And I never will forget the
Way you stared
And the feeling I remember
Can't compare
We had come down in the evening
On the train
We had taken of some tea
Along the way
Now anticipation gripped us
Where we lay
And the feeling I remember
I can't say
It's coming up
I feel it now
We're floating forward
On the ground
we're getting there
I see the lights
Don't be scared
But hold on tight
All it takes is One Night

Punky House Party
04:00
|

|
New Wave
New Rave
Sometimes I feel pretty low down
But I can't get lower than the ground
Sometimes I think I don't have a heart
When I get like that, I gotta go start
A party
But not just any party
it's gotta be weird and it's gotta be live
It's gotta be loose because I'm feeling uptight
The joyful sounds are gonna play all night
And everything is gonna be alright
at the party
The Punky House Party
I just wanna laugh
I just wanna lean
I just wanna crash
I just wanna cream
I just wanna dance
I just wanna dream
I just wanna sing
I just wanna scream
There's gin at the bar
And there's smoke in the air
Evenyone's high
and everybody's there
We'll wiggle around
and we'll go downtown
We'll shut up and dance
because we finally found
The party
The punky house party

When the gelly turns to paste
And becomes an opaque veneer
So you wash it down the drain
Til it comes so very clear
You loved an image
When the mainstream's gone insane
And the world seems set to rot
So you wonder if you're crazy
Cause thats how you know you're not
You loved an image
You loved an image
Love wasn't in it
You can't relive it
When the whole universe can fit
Inside a tiny frame
And the scroll seems infinite
So you don't need your own brain
You loved an image
You loved an image
Love wasn't in it
You can't relive it
