Modern Blues 03:46
wheels turnin' coals burnin' i’m a vagrant on the run scenes rollin' heart stolen i don’t need anyone everything you said was true i don’t see through everything you touch is new but it don’t suit you modern blues time frozen eyes closin' you’re a shadow off the ground stay golden unchosen like an angel spun around everything you said was true i don’t see through everything you touch is new but it don’t suit you modern blues

groovy stranger what's it gonna be? if you keep coming after me hey soothsayer tell me what you see when combing through my destiny can you do no wrong to me? with your rainbow face feet aflame will you not wait long for me? 'fore the coffee's cold you'll ride the breeze groovy stranger who am I to be? imbued with mediocrity two-faced player what's in it for me? besides a cardiectomy can you do no wrong to me? with your rainbow face feet aflame can you do no wrong to me? can you do no wrong to me? have you got no place for me? on your golden stage 'bove land and sea you're hiding the sunshine from me (you know i wanna see it) you're hiding the sunshine from me (i don't know where you keep it) you're hiding the sunshine from me (you know i need to see it) you're hiding the sunshine from me you keep me in the dark

tricky mother nature calls do you answer? you tell her no i won’t decide just who i am don’t wanna know the dealer’s hand caught between a destiny and an alter you falter not but come undone just like a rose your petals fold you phantasm look at you you ingenue in navy blue cowboy boots look at you you prostitute of twisted truth vicissitude look at this this masochistic hollow tryst in nude lipstick look at me i’m finally free of everything i’m supposed to be tricky mother nature calls you the father but you’re so motherly in everything you see and do your honesty will strangle you tricky mother nature you marauder you clobber me with obstacles i never know just what to do but still i love you

Sights 01:37
you’ve got a world inside your head i want to live in it you’ve got a wicked smile i’ve seen the light refract through it oh, you look at me like some forgotten dream you had last night why fight the sights behind your eyes you’ve got a scary mind i feel it burn like dynamite you've got maze up for a face i wonder what's inside oh, I look at you grasping for a clue so I can sneak a peek at what you hide from me

Honeyrose 01:59
you wear colour glasses when you walk around the world and it helps you see you listen to static on your broken dream machine and it helps you sleep i’m not asking for the world but, i'm hoping that you'll someday notice me i still hold my breath and wish when I drive across a bridge religiously i smoke honeyroses when i’m waxing lyrical in a reverie i turn on the light inside a giant mineral and it helps me breathe i’m not asking for the world but, i’m hoping that you sometimes think of me i still listen to you talking to me all the time in my memory i wear colour glasses when i step into your world and it helps me see

do you ever wonder why the river’s dry every time you try to go out for a swim do you always have to cry when you lie awake at night and the moonlight shines up against your skin OOooOOoo everybody’s watching you OOooOOoo everything little thing you do i don’t care what you say i’m gonna stay this way it doesn’t matter what you say do you ever wonder why the sun ain’t bright when you go outside to greet the day do you always act shy when you realize that the one you like feels the same way OOooOOoo everybody’s watching you OOooOOoo everything little thing you do i don’t care what you say i’m gonna stay this way it doesn’t matter what you say

Wait 03:04
wait are you making a mistake? is it possible that fate’s misleading you wait is there something more to say? have you got a card to play that changes things i can’t imagine what would’ve happened if i’d a been myself instead of someone else i can’t imagine what i’d a told you if i was there right now i don’t care anyhow stay i just want for you to stay i just want for you to lay down next to me sway as you walk away you say that it’s not goodbye, but only destiny i can’t imagine what would’ve happened if i'd a been myself instead of someone else i can’t imagine what i’d a told you if i was there right now i don’t care anyhow

Sustaining 02:34
everyday there’s something new free diversion built for you clean your ears and tie your shoes for you to see a lot of things that you don’t need infinitely another johnny appleseed an industry of misery what’s the worth in hating all these people you’re sustaining? everything’s degrading yet you keep participating watch the high- light reel turn lewd redefine your attitude in the nude what’s the use in keeping company discrete when money’s stuck between your teeth and tongue is loosening when sin is opportunity what’s the worth in hating all these people you’re sustaining? everything’s degrading yet you keep participating
11.
Magic 00:47
it feels like magic, magic when you walk with me it feels like magic, magic when you talk to me it feels like nothing at all that i can recall ever has happened to me it feels like magic, magic when you look at me

i wanna be your everything the crescent moon a phone that rings an apple pie the sky at night your lonesome words and mutterings but how can I be everything at once for you my darling? when i’ve got trouble simply being me i wanna be your destiny a diamond ring a bird that sings the lightbulbs on your vanity an eloquent analogy but how can be anything at all for you my darling? when i’ve got trouble simply being me if I could be most anything you know that i’d be yours simply nothing more by you I’d be adored or else i’d be the widest sea you’d sail from shore to shore be my love the door to fantasy galore i wanna be your everything the echoes in your memory an everyday amenity a comedy and tragedy i wanna be your everything yeah, every rise and fall because without you i am nothing at all
