I want to start again
Sunsets, new babbling man
Holding my sign
Manhattan on the rocks
Red handed, never caught
But hoping you'll try
Mine is a chrome palace
Lost in Los Angeles
I know that I'll make it through
I want to start again
My crime fits the punishment
Wasting my time
Remember at the board Laura throwing darts
You're holding it together while you're torn apart
Forcing a smile
Mine is a chrome palace
Lost in Los Angeles
I know that I'll make it through
Mine is a chrome palace
Islands and old ballads
Shining like brand new
It takes a moment for your eyes to adjust
Step out into the sun
It takes a moment for your eyes to adjust
Step out into the sun
It takes a moment for
For your eyes to adjust
Step out into the sun
Uh
I want to start again
Sunsets, new babbling man
Holding my sign
Manhattan on the rocks
Red handed, never caught
But hoping you'll try

Past Lives
Save me
From the prime of my life
And I'll try
To carry you home tonight
Annie
Over Kansas in heels
Like a child
Laughing at endless skies
I will wait for you
At the end love
Let your past lives too
Then you wake up
Take me
To Dorothy Chandler tonight
And I'll find you
Reflected a hundred times
You can spend all your sugar you know me
Sprawling out on a California king
I will wait for you
At the end love
Let your past lives too
Then you wake up
Through the catacombs
Into nothing
And it mattered through
To the beginning
Save me
From the prime of my life
And I will wait for you
At the end love
There your past lives too
Then you wake up
When the spirit comes
Over water
That'll come for you
A little farther
Through the catacombs
Into nothing
And it mattered through
To the beginning
From the prime of my life
And I'll try
To carry you home tonight
Annie
Over Kansas in heels
Like a child
Laughing at endless skies
I will wait for you
At the end love
Let your past lives too
Then you wake up
Take me
To Dorothy Chandler tonight
And I'll find you
Reflected a hundred times
You can spend all your sugar you know me
Sprawling out on a California king
I will wait for you
At the end love
Let your past lives too
Then you wake up
Through the catacombs
Into nothing
And it mattered through
To the beginning
Save me
From the prime of my life
And I will wait for you
At the end love
There your past lives too
Then you wake up
When the spirit comes
Over water
That'll come for you
A little farther
Through the catacombs
Into nothing
And it mattered through
To the beginning

Dark Days
Finally what you came for
Finally what you hoped to find
Racing home from her house
Looking out for black and white
Dark days in the summer
A million ways to tow the line
Can't wait holy other
Might as well be the seventh son
Ooh, it goes hand in hand
with fear for the afterlife
Ooh, how can we fight it,
fight it if we don't even know why?
While the dollar is strong
While nobody else relies
When they turn the corner
When you know we're out of sight
Dark days in the summer
In the rain the water's fine
It was wild combination
Either that or right down the line
Ooh, it goes hand in hand
with fear for the afterlife
Ooh, how can we fight it,
fight it if we don't even know why?
I've been on the way, I've been on the way,
I've been on my way for so long
I've been on the way, I've been on the way,
I've been on my way for so long
Finally what you hoped to find
Racing home from her house
Looking out for black and white
Dark days in the summer
A million ways to tow the line
Can't wait holy other
Might as well be the seventh son
Ooh, it goes hand in hand

Fountain Of Youth
I think we better listen to these kids
We can't keep pretending we know what we're doing
I can't keep pretending I'm afraid
If you'll sit and listen
I'll tell you a secret
We can do whatever we want
We can say whatever we mean
I have waited so long, Mrs. President
Matriarchs and Teddy Boys, play in houses on the lake
How can we quit drugs if you're gonna watch like that?
Give me five good reasons you trust us with our future
We can do whatever we want
We can say whatever we mean
And if we don't care
Then who cares?
We've been dreaming of you
Drinking from fountains of youth
And if we don't change
Then who will change?
We've been dreaming of you
Drinking from fountains of youth
I think we better listen to these kids
I can't keep pretending that I'm still asleep
I can't keep pretending I'm afraid
I was too stoned to call you but I thought that you'd say
We can do whatever we want
We can say whatever we mean
And if we don't care
Then who cares?
We've been dreaming of you
Drinking from fountains of youth
And if we don't change
Then who will change?
We've been dreaming of you
Drinking from fountains of youth
We can do whatever we want
We can say whatever we mean
We can do whatever we want
We can say whatever we mean
We can't keep pretending we know what we're doing

Masters
Do you feel like a shit turning up sometimes?
Just pierce through the jungle of your mind
Do you feel like a shit turning up sometimes?
Just pierce through the jungle of your mind
Stay, I'll make sure you're safe
I don't wanna change
I love you this way
And I love you right now
Heard they're still playing songs on the radio
Your kids won't know what the thing was for
Stay, I'll make sure you're safe
The masters won't change
And I love you this way
And we're all masters now
Are you afraid to call yourself a feminist?
All the losers complaining, "I don't have time for this"
Safe, your common mistake won't make you feel safe
The masters won't change
And we're all masters now
Just pierce through the jungle of your mind
Do you feel like a shit turning up sometimes?
Just pierce through the jungle of your mind
Stay, I'll make sure you're safe

Jellyfish
Love
I'm already ten steps ahead
Took the wrong train and I fell
Head over heels in a moment
Then you're gone
Blank stare
If you're bored, you're boring
Unaware
Could I get a warning?
Love
I can see rain coming in
Like jellyfish limbs from a distance
Tired commuter heads sway and bow
Praying to you
Blank stare
If you're bored, you're boring
Unaware
You could cure the lonely
I'm already ten steps ahead
Took the wrong train and I fell
Head over heels in a moment
Then you're gone
Blank stare
If you're bored, you're boring
Unaware
Could I get a warning?
Love
I can see rain coming in
Like jellyfish limbs from a distance
Tired commuter heads sway and bow
Praying to you
Blank stare
If you're bored, you're boring
Unaware
You could cure the lonely

Coins
Time stands still and then one day it's gone
Where did it go?
Where did I go?
We couldn't wait to grow old
But I can't fight the feeling anymore
You know I tried
I know you tried
We're still waiting to arrive
Ooh, how much is enough?
Ooh, how can you be sure of?
I start our day so late in the evening
Ooh, how much is enough?
Nineteen hours from my door to yours
I count the miles and all the while
Waiting for the sun to rise
But how come you can be so sure about everything when
I go to sleep you're waking up?
Ooh, how much is enough?
Ooh, how can you be sure of?
I start our day so late in the evening
Ooh, how much is enough?
Sometimes
Oh, you know it feels like
That we're on the same side of different coins
Somehow I could do more now
If we've gotta struggle
I want to struggle again
Ooh, how much is enough?
Ooh, how can you be sure of?
I start our day so late in the evening
Ooh, how much is enough?
Where did it go?
Where did I go?
We couldn't wait to grow old
But I can't fight the feeling anymore
You know I tried
I know you tried
We're still waiting to arrive
Ooh, how much is enough?
Ooh, how can you be sure of?
I start our day so late in the evening
Ooh, how much is enough?
Nineteen hours from my door to yours
I count the miles and all the while
Waiting for the sun to rise
But how come you can be so sure about everything when

Mother Emanuel
In a thousand ways
I'd feel the weight of
I'd feel the weight of
Carolina's pain
What's left to take from?
Closer now they come
Farther now I'd run
As the other way
Violence without cause
Hours till the dawn
As the other way
In a thousand ways
The sound of pockets jangling
The sound of broken glass
In a single frame
Closer gets television
Everyone's tuning in
Closer now they come
Farther now I'd run
As the other way
Violence without cause
Hours till the dawn
As the other way
In a thousand ways
I see the changes
I'd feel awakened
Ah, will it stay the same?
Where is the morning?
Where is the morning?
Closer now they come
Farther now I'd run
As the other way
Violence without cause
Hours till the dawn
As the other way
I'd feel the weight of
I'd feel the weight of
Carolina's pain
What's left to take from?
Closer now they come
Farther now I'd run

Psycho Lovers
When the sun that covers me
I let a lifetime go
Then all we want
Is a love to lean on
And we just learned how to breathe
And L.A. falls into the sea
Then all we want is a love to lean on
We won't give up
Paradise
Heaven wants us alive
Psycho lovers out of our minds
Heaven wants us alive
I've got a violence in my dreams
I've got a makeup on my teeth
We're all hysterical for love
A love to lean on
We won't give up
Paradise
Heaven wants us alive
Psycho lovers out of our minds
Heaven wants us alive
When the light that covers us
We let a lifetime go
And all we want is for love to be enough
We won't give up
Paradise
Heaven wants us alive
With or without human doubt
Heaven wants us alive
I let a lifetime go
Then all we want
Is a love to lean on
And we just learned how to breathe
And L.A. falls into the sea
Then all we want is a love to lean on
We won't give up
Paradise
Heaven wants us alive
Psycho lovers out of our minds
Heaven wants us alive
I've got a violence in my dreams
I've got a makeup on my teeth
We're all hysterical for love
A love to lean on
We won't give up
Paradise
Heaven wants us alive
Psycho lovers out of our minds
Heaven wants us alive
When the light that covers us
We let a lifetime go
And all we want is for love to be enough
We won't give up

Everything All At Once
Looking at all the people
While they're looking at you
If only they were a mirror
and you could do what you want to
No one, no one, no one, no one
No one, no one, no one, no one

Like you do, like you do, like you do
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Everything have become overflowing
We wouldn't have to be nervous
Take a step with a smile
Cause we can all be go-getters for awhile
For awhile
No one, no one, no one, no one

Sea Of Years
People, they say, higher high
Why do they go low and lower?
I need to know
Do I want to believe
Trying to climb higher high
Weight of it all
(On your shoulders)
Palms up to show that I've dug in too deep
I'll make up my mind
Then a sea of years pass inside
Why is it I need a thousand lives?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Even if I live again
(Even if I live again)
Just enough to reach their hands
(Just enough to reach their hands)
All of the hands reaching out to me
I'll make up my mind
Then a sea of years pass inside
Why is it I need a thousand lives?
