Now

Standing on the pavement
Looking for some rent
Everything is touch and go
Even my mind is spent

Do it now,
I just can’t wait
Do it now,
I just can’t wait

My memories are blue
rushing through to you
will you understand?
do you know this land?

Do it now,
I just can’t wait
Do it now,
I just can’t wait

Turn the mind around
fall to the ground
stop for some reason
commit some treason

Do it now,
I just can’t wait
Do it now,
I just can’t wait

Falling with you

Sweet Romance
ended in bad dreams
learning to dance
it’s such a strange scene
But that glance
from your eyes

I don’t know if I am falling
I am falling
I am falling
with you

Tangerine dreams
keep me awake
Divine states
I get the shakes
Hold me fakes
cause the earth it quakes

I don’t know if I am falling
I am falling
I am falling
with you

Vantage Point

Jitters so quiet
I run to complain
about a man
gone insane

Vantage point
I look too far

Jasper museum
of showered time
The place I live
bent towards crime

Vantage point
I look too far

Here it stands
in the broken heat
Here it stands
off the beat

Vantage point
I look too far

Wanton Youth

I think you're strange
Baby don’t you know
Wanton youth

Nobody loves you
Baby don’t you know
Wanton youth

And you’ve got time to talk
Baby don't you know
Wanton youth.

Cloud Girl

Watching her from below.
Talking with her now.
She seems to be light.
She is very white.

A real cloud girl,
floating through the sky.
A real cloud girl,
Catching my eye.

There are moons and suns,
but she is everywhere.
I know she is all right.
Yes, and even tonight.

A read cloud girl,
floating through the sky.
A real cloud girl,
catching my eye.

Now Times

Can you understand time?
I don’t seem to
When it’s two I think it’s three
And when it’s four I am on the floor

Now times,
where do they go?
Now times,
where do they go?

My dad bought me a watch
So that I would know
And now it’s all on time
My whole life is on time

Now times,
where do they go?
Now times,
where do they go?

Some day I’ll get a Ferrari
And drive it at finite speed
You won’t see me at all
Because I’ll be faster than you

Now times,
where do they go?
Now times,
where do they go?

The dialogue

All through the times
I wear a mask
It gets so heavy
I forget to ask

But who never knows
the dialogue?
But who never shows
the dialogue?

What’s the difference anyway?
Your fool's broken refrain,
starts you to see,
ancient souls in pain

Where did I find
the dialogue?
It’s in my mind
the dialogue?

Why do we learn
the dialogue?
When will we burn
the dialogue?

It screams

When I touch down
on the world today
Well it could be better
in another way

Do you see the way
it screams?

When I touch down
on the world today
I start to thinking
about me yesterday

Do you see the way
it screams?

Freedom Fighter

You say that I am,
a freedom fighter
But nobody, nobody,
would ignite her

The Moon is high

The Sun, the Sun is down
The Sun, the Sun is down
the poor, the poor may frown
but the Sun, the Sun is going down

The Moon, the Moon is high
The Moon, the Moon is high
The drunks, the drunks may cry
But the Moon, the Moon is high

The Stars, the Stars they shine
The Stars, the Stars they shine
And though the Stars may shine,
the rich, the rich still dine
