Fingertips 03:58
Hero’s rally, big show Miami Flag down a cabby here in the alley (Apocalypse was on your lips) I’m going home, flying home (Stopped short by my fingertips) Right now I’m trying to remember All the things I used to do Strewn by fake news Big doors, art gallery, taboo, shall we leave? I want to so badly Apocalypse was on your lips Stopped short by my fingertips It’s hard to remember All the things I used to love to do They’re strewn to the moon Us playing horseshoes was long overdue We talk it through until we reach the breakthrough It makes you smile, it makes me subdued In the heat and it’s humid too I take a seat right next to you I’m going home Flying home Alone Outgoing flight overnight I’m a satellite landing on your mind Wait rewind, wait remind me What you said to me so heavily You’re a playwright I’m on stage right I’m a soundbite On stage right

The Stranger 03:21
Today I’m tryin’ somethin’ new Because it feels so very Let’s just say, it’s scary And you keep drinkin’ while I’m up here singin’ Bring the man another gin and tonic He’s with the band, he wrote this song it’s Romance, it’s all I wanted too I want to make a kind of debut Because today I feel so very Deeply solitary And if you know what I’m thinkin’ It might become a beacon Buy the man another gin and tonic He’s with the band, he wrote this song it’s Our dance, it’s all I wanted to do I am on my way to sit at your table It’s a nice day though the weather’s a little unstable You like how I play and you know that I’m capable It’s a pretty day sipping tea under the maple We head down to the strip it’s so nice You slip The Doors into the CD drive 5 to 1 baby, 1 in 5, this is fun Stream another sad song, I’m dyin’ Put my best blouse on, I’m tryin’ And every single night, I’m flyin’ I pour myself another gin and tonic In a pretty glass with the price still on it Sit back, let my mind wander to you Last year I made myself a promise Out in the sun, out on the lawn we Joked around and laughed so hard, we knew

Deciphered your scrawl, awaited your call Time moved like honey I stared at the wall, staged like a doll I didn’t even notice that it was sunny Weaving daisies in a pink beach chair out on the lawn I don’t know why you’re nowhere I’m denyin’ you’re lyin’ and tryin’ to move on Thinking about shades of blue and the hues that he used Relyin’ on tryin’ to tie in this new phenomenon Trying out streaks of blue in the music it’s got to come through I’m weaving daisies in my pink beach chair They’re in my hair Sun-kissed but scarred, I go inside to play guitar For me that’s really hard, trust me But I’ll sing to your heart, just doing my part But sometimes it can be confronting I’m weaving daisies into my dark hair in the breeze 28 degrees

North Beach 03:49
Wakin’ up in my ripped up old jeans Honestly I just didn’t bother You can read into what it means But honestly I just couldn’t bother Everything is just as it seems I could go on and on here But instead I started thinking about San Francisco And eating Chinese food upstairs In that little dive right next to North Beach By City Lights Bookstore, I liked it there It was July day 17 In the year with the hot, hot summer Time to get out and get free Gettin’ ready to have some goddamn fun here Or at least try, after all it’s July And then I started dreaming about San Francisco And eating Chinese food upstairs In that little dive right next to North Beach By City Lights Bookstore, in that smoky air I’m satisfied with all I’ve seen Although I’ve never been down under yet You read books about the scenery And write down your dreams so you don’t forget And maybe we’ll fly there or at least try And then I started talking about San Francisco And eating Chinese food upstairs In that little dive right next to North Beach By City Lights Bookstore, I liked it there

Dark Shades 03:21
As a prop I take my crown Climb the steep ridges of the bridge Touch heaven for a second at 11pm In a dark shade of blue you paint the shape Of the golden gate This is Friday night I’m fascinated downright It’s really just perfect Transfixed by the lights, the city lights And the life that I had to reject I oblige to Revolutionize you So close-up I’m on top with my crown And the master key Never questioned for a minute What was in it for you Or for me I look down at the sea This is Friday night I’m fascinated downright It’s really just perfect Transfixed by the night, the city at night And the life I had to reject

Broke 03:50
I was walking through Amsterdam What a shabby town When it’s 2am and there’s nothing But the lost around People littered on the pavements Not warm or cold And it’s not raining But it’s definitely dangerous Anyway I’m broke but witty Take the night train back to the city I don’t mean to provoke or to be tricky I don’t complain and I’m not guilty Four cans of cold beer we were savin’ To pass time as the train went racin’ I’m so glad I’m not alone, it’s amazin’ What did you think of that saxophone and his crazy playin’ Anyway I’m broke but feeling pretty On the night train back to the city I don’t mean to provoke or to be tricky I don’t complain and I’m not guilty I think this lifestyle’s gonna kill me But I have no choice and I’m perfectly willing But sometimes I can’t figure out what to be giving It’s just hard, just living
7.
Daisy 04:03
Thinkin‘ about the old days in a daze Freakin’ out, my mind’s been crazed Diamond earrings donned Red lips to turn you on White lies as applies Realities drawn Livin’ it givin’ it unlimited Participants it’s imminent I’m givin’ up privilege It’s imminent ambivalent To implement imprisonment I’m livin’ it Aligning God and soul In solitude she’s lost her role But she’s strong and she won’t fall Illusions fusions bruises revolutions Not minding your hands on My hips I hum a song I’m high on lullabies You sing sweetly until dawn I’m shiverin’ remember when They limited it They’re killin’ it I’m livin’ it You’re livin’ it Imprisonment unlimited I’m riveted I’m riveted Not givin’ in I’m shiverin’ Not finding God or soul I called you back so we could rock n roll Cuz that’s really my only goal Illusions fusions bruises revolutions Thinkin’ about the old days, the old ways Sneakin’ around I need to play It’s time I get home I’m slow, I roam and roam Your bright eyes stay inside My head like a song Your blue eyes like the skies They shine on and on
8.
Right now boardwalk bound, that’s when I saw him Right now, next to the hot dog stand Closed for orders It was still locked up, shut tight It was the morning He was standing there like nothing changed Like he wasn’t a criminal I turned around to the stands unmanned And the rides, blue waves tamed when they meet with the sand Stars gone I wished upon Baby come on Sun south rebounds, a big car engine sounds He’s gone and I’ve gotta find a way to track him down I watched you try to fly on lie after lie But we all know the shelf life of deceit makes wise He thought free, out of the box He showed me some fascinating sights He brought me warm coffee Cream-colored, smelled sweet And I knew that it was spiked Give me pain, give me gain Give me fame, give me everything the same

White Yacht 03:54
Big shoes, chartreuse He got out of his hippie shack, got out of the riff raff Painted his old Fiat back, he said he wants the city back Tell me how it’s relevant, he was already selling it Sacrificing everything just for the hell of it Hot and out of thought He’s bought by a bot And sailing on the ocean with no emotion But he’s not broken White yacht, Tequila shot He kicks up his legs He’s got a lot I’ll have a glass of your pink lemonade, thank you I wanna know - do you really got it made, do you? You don’t downplay your house in Marseilles And I’m late so thanks for the date Walk down the block to sound of trip-hop Like a dream, I’m keen to lean Against the big tick tock In the square, in the sun I’ll meet you there We’ll have fun I’ll have a glass of your pink lemonade, thank you I wanna know - do you really got it made, do you? You don’t downplay your house in Marseilles Or your valet but I’m late Big shoes, chartreuse Pretty pretty white slacks, witty witty contacts Questionable contracts, beige-colored Cadillac One evening distracted by a pelican In his brain too much cocaine, he was negligent Definitely way too much decadence And the ocean became his severance Ruby lips above the water blowing bubbles soft and fine You are lost and gone forever 10 miles off the coastline 10 miles

Old Routes 02:58
I took old routes by foot Still could Round the bend into the woods and then I saw the men lined up And I slipped back out to the open Heart pounding Barks and shouting All those mind locks High on psyops Day in, day out It feels like time stopped It feels like I’m mocked Day in, day out The birds are singing The sunlight keeps gleaming
11.
Rollout 03:10
Breeze rolls in On my skin Leaves no sin Breeze rolls in The dark stopped stalking Rolling and rocking The devil disheveled me But I live peacefully Breeze calls him But he’s gone and been Too many men Breeze calls him The hard times taught me And scratched and marked me And harps and goddesses got me through Those goddesses taught me And slowly sparked me To open up to you Breeze rolls in Devils grin But good always wins Breeze rolls in
