1. Dive into the Sun4:03

   Letra

   You think like a loaded gun as your mind is over come Unzipped by stellar fields infinity and love They put the big into the bang and said that chaos is the way I wanna hide I wanna run before I come undone So I fall thru' the edge of the day and stare into the night In the abysmal atmosphere the stars don't look so bright Feeling small wanna crawl now I got nowhere to run Let's turn around and dive into the sun Dive into the sun You know that life's what you make it So make it happen the way you want Dive into the sun You got to know how to take it To take it all and be grateful – yeah-e-eah You dream in catastrophes you want eternal guarantees That don't mean much to me, eternity is free A giant leap a step too far? you can count your lucky stars I'll read the signs for all our times and count on who we are I know you you know me gotta help me find a light With convoluted attitudes we may as well as might Turn it up turn it down now you know you are the on Let's turn around and dive into the sun Dive into the sun You know that life's what you make it So make it happen the way you want Dive into the sun You got to know how to take it To take it all and be grateful – yeah-e-eah Dive into the sun You know that life's what you make it So make it happen the way you want Dive into the sun You got to know how to take it To take it all and be grateful – yeah-e-eah [Repeat]
2. Rooted5:31

   Letra

   I talk to the empty air I guess it's some kind of empty prayer To no one who's never there It doesn't matter if they exist I'm aesthetically atheist It only matters I pray for this You took the prodigal from my heart And gave me a safe place to fall apart You know all about me now I was a typical crash and burn Spent a life that I'd never earned It wasn't ever enough somehow I'm rooted in this place I'm watching your silent face I'm sensing my saving grace Is rooted deep inside of you Had so many trials of style Exponentially growing wilder Til I was right on the edge of it And it was all down to me I guess I must be some kind of holy mess I only wanted you to exist My conscience is still intact I just thought that I would mention that It doesn't matter it's just a fact Aesthetically atheist Cos I'm not sure that I would pass the test I only wanna be sure of this I'm rooted in this place I'm watching your silent face I'm sensing my saving grace Is rooted deep inside of you The measure of consequence Is how far down you go before you have the sense To pray for deliverance I prayed for it more or less A lot of empty words I guess I only wanted you to exist I'm rooted in this place I'm watching your silent face I'm sensing my saving grace Is rooted deep inside of you

   I'll dream another day for you I'll peel another skin for you I'll bare another soul just for you I'll bleed another heart for you I'll even play the fool for you I'll act so crazy just for you There's nothing I will not deny If you're the sun I'll be the sky So many times I've walked right by your side So many times I've been a superfly But I am not your candy coated crazy little guy I'll be the martyr to your cause I'll be the star that has to fall Anything you want I will be I'll fill my head with thoughts of you I'll steal the moon and paint it blue I'll pull my own strings all for you There's nothing I will not deny If you're the sun I'll be the sky So many times I've walked right by your side So many times I've been a superfly So many times I've wandered thru your heart So many times I've wondered where to start So many times I've walked right by your side So many times I've been a super fly But I am not your candy coated crazy little guy There's nothing I will not deny If you're the sun I'll be the sky So many times I've walked right by your side So many times I've been a superfly So many times I've wandered thru your heart So many times I've wondered where to start So many times I've walked right by your side So many times I've been your super fly But I am not your candy coated crazy little guy I will not deny...

   You gone and told me 'bout the Hollywood Hills The thrills and chills The passion and the pills Keep talking You told me all about the men you met The come and get The kiss that you regret Keep talking You went and told me 'bout the fame in Spain The plain in Jane The losing it again Keep talking You told me all about the sweet sunset In love and debt The one you can't forget Keep talking Now you keep talking in your sleep You've had it rough It went too deep I pray the lord your soul to keep I've heard enough I'm in retreat (You) keep talking me right out of here Sleep talking You went and told me bout the Italian job The Pope and God Spaghetti and the mob Keep talking And how about the little brokedown shack The hack 'n smack The scratching Daddy's back Keep talking You gone and told me bout the Broadway hits The diva fits The lovers and the splits Keep talking You went and told me bout the Paris in the spring And the nearly thing And the diamond in the ring Keep talking I don't know what I can say Cos I can't take it away I don't know what I can say to you Cos you just took it away from me Now you keep talking in your sleep You've had it rough It went too deep I pray the lord your soul to keep I've heard enough I'm in retreat (You) keep talking me right out of here Sleep talking Fell apart in St. Tropez That kind of gave the game away Met the set in Martinique Couldn't hack the chic-to-chic New York new walk big town talk Your perfect face was white as chalk Trailer trash to all time smash Now you're waiting for the burn and crash Tragedy in harmony You gonna bling til you're back on your knees You gonna sing til you're back on your knees You gonna ring when you're back on your knees Tragedy in harmony You gonna bling til you're back on your knees You gonna sing til you're back on your knees You gonna ring when you're back on your knees Monte Carlo boom to bust Lost the lustre lost the trust Went to Phuket went to hell Had to get back into your shell LA tripped over your head Wanted to jump but you made it instead Trailer trash to all time smash Now you're waiting for the burn and crash A tragedy Yeah, yeah, yeah Keep talking Sleep talking Keep talking Sleep talking Keep talking Keep talking Keep talking

   Straight out of mothballs we took the jet And flew across Gotham in retroglide The closest thing to heaven that I found yet In a city full of dreamers it's as good as it gets Go tell the spider to text the X This comic book caper is nine to five A seven or eleven and it's a bet In a city full of schemers it's as good as it gets Me, I'm an eight ball shoot me and win There's not a lot love in this city of sin Do you ever get the feeling this sun has set In a city full of screamers it's as good as it gets Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy Moby or Gobi a deserted dream You hear a lot of ghosts in this old town Gotta let the fuse blow you right out the net In a city full of stealers itís as good as it gets Saigon ain't bygones for viet vets You don't know what hits you til they call in the debt The apocalypse is now and it's still Jack Schitt In a city full of dealers it's as good as it gets Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy Calling all the great and the beautiful How about a little empathy What you gonna do when duty calls Send in all the clowns to keep us happy
7. All Around4:58

   Letra

   Your small time view is so oblique You think your thoughts are so unique Your squeaky lies are sneaky clean Cos you won't say just what you mean Now, I don't recognize you Oh, I don't recognize you You bled me dry and left me high Your dirty heart is by the by You trash your friends like it's a game Then you cry and claim the pain Now, I don't recognize you Oh, I don't recognize you [Chorus] All around it's all around All ready to be found All ready to take you down Down, down, down, down All around it's all around All ready to be found All ready to bring you round Bring you round now You break your beats and drop your bombs Cos everybody else is wrong You hawk your dove and say your prayers Like you're the only one who cares Don't like your TVocricy Your karaokeosophy Can't take another minute of what you say I won't be the bait today Now, I don't recognize you Oh, I don't recognize you [Chorus] Hypno trips a psycho blitz You tried it all but nothing fits You got a little habit that burns your nose A bony fido freaky pose You hide your hat behind a stare You take the heat out of the air A solid state electric sigh What made you so angelized Well, I don't recognize you And I won't angelize you And I won't angelize you Because I don't recognize you anymore

   A walk in the clouds Walking together You feel yourself Walking forever The feeling that this is Everything to amaze And the Universe shines bright in your face The love we had was once in a lifetime When I held you close you were so precious I will still be here When the love has gone I will always care Holding on What we had we share When the love has gone I will still be here Holding on We had our time Captured the moment You heard yourself Talking of omens We were bound to lose faith Cos love is for lovers Aimlessly open With one another Deeper yet, As deep as the nighttime When you held my heart like it was precious I will still be here When the love has gone I will always care Holding on What we had we share When the love has gone I will still be here Holding on [Repeat]

10. Ship5:09

    Letra

    Oceans deep Drifting as you sleep Up on the eternal sea A ship sails When your ship comes in Will you be ready to sail with the tide And when your ship comes in Will it be a galley full of slaves Or a sun streaked schooner You came so far Between the rocks and shoals In the blinding night A may day When your ship comes in Will you step on board with a smile Or will they have to pressgang you Will the flag that flies in the wind Say friend or foe Will you know Or bear the mark of a pirate bold With a treasure chest full of fool’s gold Fool’s gold When your ship comes in Don’t try to pack your case with hopes and dreams It’s all behind you now This ain't no Sunday cruise this time you don’t choose your destination And will a silent wave carry you away Or will the storm crash down so cold I spent a lot of fool’s gold Fool’s gold Will you be ready when your ship comes in When your ship comes in Will you be ready to sail with the tide When your ship comes in Will you be ready when your ship comes in When your ship comes in Will you be ready to sail with a smile When your ship comes in
11. All I Need

    Letra

    I'm moving slowly Trying to find my own way It's a struggle to get there When I'm feeling this way Is there someone to call I can't seem to think How can I go on When I'm on the brink Pale mornings stale with memories I pick up my life and it's empty I've had a lot of luke warm Faded mutations of love I've gone as far as I can I need something I am sure of Subtle as crows Teach me again I've learned about lonely And nothing 'bout friends Pale mornings stale with memories I feed off the lies that were fed me I feed off the lies that were fed me Can't go on On and on How can I go on I'm calling All our lives We will strive Tell me what it means The danger lies In trying to fly When you've no wings In your eyes There's a smile That's all I need I want something to believe in I'm tired of feeling this way I got nowhere left to get to Nowhere to go anyway Time moving on I reach for the past Will you be there If I call you at last Pale mornings stale with memories I pick up my life and it's empty I feed off the lies that were fed me Can't go on On and on How can I go on I'm calling All our lives We will strive Tell me what it means The danger lies In trying to fly When you've no wings In your eyes There's a smile That's all I need Oooh All I need
