--Lyrics--
We’re getting close to paradise
Every moment of the day
Yes, now we’re getting closer and closer
But not close enough
Yes, now we’re getting closer and closer
But not close enough
Wake in the morning, the sunshine burns
‘Cause you fall from where you felt you are
You’re walking faster and faster
Oh, but the days they ain’t slowing down
Don’t you, don’t you wanna be there, there right now
Yes, now we’re getting closer and closer
But not close enough
Yes, now we’re getting closer and closer
To paradise, we’ll promise that
To paradise, we’ll promise that
Hey lovely people down there
Let’s fill that hole up in the sky
Don’t be afraid to care
I’m sure you’ll find yourself there
Hey lovely people down there
Let’s fill that hole up in the sky
Don’t be afraid to care
I’m sure you’ll find yourself there
I’m sure you’ll find yourself there
When you’re down, hold on, hold on
I’m sure you’ll find yourself there
When you’re down, hold on
I’m sure you’ll find yourself there
Close, close to paradise

Daydreamer
Come talk to me now
Daydreamer, daydreamer
Come with me now
Don’t, no, you're sitting down
From your eyes
Is he sleeping anyhow?
You’re sitting down, sweet eyes
Still, I’m sleeping anyhow
But daydreamer, oh, daydreamer
Wake me now
From the early sunlight
Pan my head away
Daydreamer, oh, day dreamer
My daydreamer
Won’t you stay inside your house
'Cause I don’t feel so lonely
When you are around
When you are around
Lay my head
Tie me out of my shoes
And walk another place away from blues
When my head is heavy on my shoulders
Daydreamer gonna make it over
My daydreamer
Won’t you stay inside your house

Slip Into Your Skin
03:37
|
|||
--Lyrics--
Slip into your skin and spend the night
Get outta mine
Walking in streets at dark
Where the lamps are the sunshine
For the trees
Oh, for the trees
‘Cause everybody needs somebody
To hold on
Oh, everybody needs somebody
To hold on
When your feet are leaving the ground
Leaving the ground
Leaving the ground
Leaving the ground
Be the blanket for my bones
Be a place that I call home
Slipped into your skin and spent the night
‘Cause I feel like a different man
I feel it when I’m with you
When I’m with you
When I’m with you

Giver

--Lyrics--
Is it just me or do you feel a little strange?
Is it just me or do you feel the change?
And now, is it me?
How about you?
Isn’t it strange that time’s a little fast?
Isn’t it strange that nothing ever last?
And now, is it me?
How about you?
Well, now, is it me?
How about you?
Don’t be a fool
Well, don’t be afraid
Nothing’s really ever supposed to last
Now, don’t be a fool
Well, don’t be afraid
Everybody needs to meet the end
Isn’t it fun at the very edge of the world?
Where talking’s like walking on broken glass
No need to fret, I’m in the same hands as you
One of these days, I’m gonna meet my matchmaker too
Well, don’t be a fool
Well, don’t be afraid
Nothing’s really ever supposed to last
Oh, don’t be afraid
Everybody needs to meet the end
Oh, that is why
Oh, that is why I feel, I feel so alive
At the edge of the world
Well, now, is it me?
How about you?
Well, now, is it me?
How about you?

Weight of the World
04:40
|
|||
--Lyrics--
I got my feet knocked off the ground
I got my head knocked off my feet
I tried to swallow all of the world
And now I’ve gotten in a little too deep
And now I’m falling towards the sky
I just don’t know how and why
But I got the weight of all the world
I better not let go of the rope
Oh, what am I supposed to do?
Am I supposed to let go of all of you?
Am I supposed to fall back to the sky?
Or keep on rising for a while?
I think I’m falling down
Right back to the very ground
I couldn’t hold it anymore
I think that’s what I was asking for
I think this might just hurt
Oh, I don’t see how could I change my hurt
I was carrying the weight of all the world
I think I’ll get what I deserve
I got my feet knocked off the ground
I got my head knocked of my feet
I tried to swallow all of the world
And I think I got in a little too deep
I think you know where I have to go
I think you know what I deserve
Here comes the weight of all the world
And it’s coming straight for me

The Storm
03:12
|
|||
--Lyrics--
Found himself onto the road
The dust up to his nose
Put that anchor down
To find a place where he could go
‘Cause he was looking for the shelter from the storm
He was looking for a place that you could call your own, yeah
Kept on now walking past the signs you used to see
Kept on getting used to dropping anchor in the sea
‘Cause you’re looking for the shelter from the storm
Looks like news, that storm is coming closer every day
Well, I found myself into a town
The roads were paved with gold
(All the roads were paved with gold)
Eyes wide open, shutters closed
(Eyes wide open, shutters closed)
Just waiting for my time to know
(Quarter to twelve, it’s time to go)
The sun was hiding underground
The rain was falling upside down
(And the clouds were turning red like flames)
Oh, ‘cause I’m looking for the shelter from the storm
‘Cause she’s getting closer every day
The storm is getting closer every day
The storm is getting closer every day
The storm is getting closer every day
The storm is getting closer every day
Every day

Luscious Life
03:09
|

--Lyrics--
Sweet old luscious life
Celebrate your dreams
When you are awake
Doesn’t it taste so sweet
Like it’s growing on all
Growing on the trees
Oh, growing on the trees
When you picked me up off the ground
I’ll slowly turn you from a frown
Sweet old luscious life
My sweet old, my sweet old
Luscious life!
You taste so sweet
When you are so free
My sweet old luscious life
You taste so sweet to me
Hold time, no need for a moment of the day
I celebrate
I need, I need you today
What’s one minute of the day
To celebrate
To let it be
To feel so free
When you and me
In the sweet luscious life
For a minute of the day
You turn so sweet
You taste so sweet
Oh, you taste so sweet

Drifters
04:27
|
|||
--Lyrics--
We are drifting away
Farther every day
Soon we’ll have nothing to say
We’ll be too far away
Too far away
Too far away
From where we started
From where we started
We’ll be too far away
‘Cause we are drifting farther every day
But I will remember
Even if I’m drifting far away
But I will remember
Even if I’m fading all away
I dipped my hands into the sea
Oh, I pulled the ocean over me
And after all the tides had swallowed all the shore
I couldn’t find you anymore
We’re the great drifters
‘Cause we’re the great drifters
‘Cause we’re the great drifters
We are drifting away
We are drifting away

Man Under the Sea
03:29
|
|||
--Lyrics--
I was hiding underneath the sea
I was looking there for me
To be a better man
To be a better man
I was hiding underneath the sea
I was looking there for me
Just me, the fish and the sea
Just me, the fish and the sea
Oh, ‘cause the music was so much louder there
Just me, the fish and the sea
Just me, the fish and the sea
Hiding from all your apathy
‘Cause I was born a noise machine
Made of steel, I was born to peal
So gather round all your family round
Scream a noise and just leave
Oh, leave the ground
(The music was louder there)
Oh, leave the ground
(The music was louder there)
Under the sea
(The music was louder there)
Under the sea
(The music was louder there)
I was so happy there under
Under the sea
Under the sea
Under the sea

The Great Escape
03:07
|
|||
--Lyrics--
Bad day, looking for a way home
Looking for the great escape
Gets in his car and drives away
Far from all the things that we are
Puts on a smile and breathes it in
And breathes it out, he says
Bye bye, bye to all of the noise
Oh, he says, Bye bye
Bye to all of the noise
Hey child, things are looking down
That’s OK, you don’t need to win anyways
Don’t be afraid, just eat up all the grey
And it will fade all away
Don’t let yourself fall down
Bad day
Looking for the great escape
He says, bad day
Looking for the great escape
On a bad day
Looking for the great escape
The great escape

Sleeping Beauty
05:33
|

--Lyrics--
She walks beneath the skylines
Her eyes pass the sea
He talks and looks for all the signs
Broken dreams
In this new machine
He chews her apple to the core
Stopping just before
Thinking of sleeping beauty
She spews her venom to the floor
And opens up the door
Thinking plastics duties
Thinking of sleeping beauty chained
To her plastic duties
Thinking of sleeping beauty chained
To her plastic duties
Thinking of plastic duty
She’s my sleeping beauty

Bright Shiny Lights

--Lyrics--
Those bright shiny lights
They’re shining so bright
Casting a shadow
On all the simple things you used to own
Casting a shadow
On all the simple things you used to own
Oh, those bright shiny lights
They be shining so bright
Blinding the simple man
Oh, what a sorrowful sight
Blinding the simple man
Oh, what a sorrowful sight
Oh, those bright shiny lights
They be shining so bright
They’re casting a shadow
Oh, what a sorrowful sight
They’re casting a shadow
On all the simple things you used to own
They’re casting a shadow
Oh, what a sorrowful sight
