I Wan' 02:32
Get out, get out It's not for me Now there's no doubt Now I'll be free I can't wait until I am driving home alone But I want something of my own 'cause I wan' You know it's tough When it's the same Well fair enough Guess I'm to blame There are so many out there that I've never known And I want something of my own 'cause I wan'

On the Beach 03:37
With a pitchfork and a matchstick, I am walking to the sea The Goliath I am fighting, no one sees him, only me I was quickness, I was lightning, but I landed in a tree Now I'm saving my revenge for any time it's guaranteed I can fall down with my shoes on, but I still land on my feet Something rattles down a drainpipe, then I get up and repeat In a day we are a concept, in a week we are a team And the fields are filled with sadness, well you've got to set the scene Everywhere is a finale, there's no place you can escape Not enduring, disappearing, fading out without a trace I'm alone now, i'm a concept, I'm a time without a face Who can know what I was thinking when I put you in your place?

Don't Walk 02:13
So and so Going slow Stop and go Every day You replay Or decay Don't walk don't weep Sonic cheers Too much fear Block your ears Every day You repay That's okay Don't walk don't weep So and so Going slow Off you go Make it nice For a price Good advice

55% 03:16
Too many times already I've told you It's only me they'll ever believe And they've already thought of an answer For everything you've got up your sleeve On the floor of the factory, a little bird a little bee 55% natural Here's the place wishes come true I tell me and you tell you What's a few false starts to daydreaming hearts? You're telling me, I'm telling you On the floor of the factory, a little bird a little bee 55% natural When it's time to evacuate When we both know it's too late What stories will we tell? Oh well

2 Ships 04:04
You're a thousand miles You're a million years Looking in and trying to keep up You always leave me here Dreaming you'll apologize for What you never did Revelation comes so slowly Couldn't speed it up Permanently gone Empty engine house Resurrection with no miracle That's no good at all Screwing up my face to ask you What you're doing now Would you think that I was lazy If you knew what I left out? I left the door unchained Go on and wander out I never said to hang over my head So take away my doubt
6.
When lights are low and the points are proved That's when it's time to make my move If I hold my ground I'll be sitting pretty That's how I'm moving through the city I know just what I'll be missin' So I get into pole position There's too much riding on this mission To let go of pole position My life is setting with the sun Until it's time to have some fun My life is ticking with the clock I see it changing block to block I know just what I'll be missin' So I get into pole position There's too much riding on this mission To let go of pole position And every time I get in line Push comes to shove, I'll take what's mine There's nothing better left to do And now you know who's coming through
7.
Go for a ride, don't you wanna? Make up you mind, while there's time Don't feel obliged, just be honest We wanna stay by your side Outta light What's it like? Aim for my eye, keep me honest Don't be unkind, that's not right Snowing outside and we don't wanna We wanna stay asleep all night Outta light What's it like?
