1: That Day

That day, That day
What a mess what a marvel
I walked into that cloud again
And I lost myself
And I'm sad, sad, sad
Small, alone, scared
Craving purity
A fragile mind and a gentle spirit

That day, That day,
What a marvelous mess
This is all that I can do
I'm done to be me
Sad, scared, small, alone, beautiful
It's supposed to be like this
I accept everything
It's supposed to be like this

That day, That day
I lay down beside myself
In this feeling of pain, sadness
Scared, small, climbing, crawling
Towards the light
And it's all I see and
I'm tired and I'm right
And I'm wrong
And it's beautiful

That day, That day
What a mess, what a marvel
We're all the same
And no one thinks so
And it's okay
And I'm small and I'm divine
And it's beautiful
And it's coming
But it's already here
And it's absolutely perfect

That day, That day
When everything was a mess
And everything was in place
And there's too much hurt
Sad, small, scared, alone
And everyone's a cynic
And it's hard and it's sweet
But it's supposed to be like this

That day, That day
When I sat in the sun
And I thought and I cried
Cause I'm sad, scared, small
Alone, strong
And I'm nothing and I'm true
Only a brave man can break through
And it's all okay
Yeah, it's okay


2: Beauty On The Fire

Here it comes again
Cannot out run my desire
Cover my decent
And throw the beauty on the fire

Drawn towards the edge
Do I assume I could fly
Every secret shared
Why do I drink the feelings dry
Don't go too far
Limitation scars

Tonight, could I be lost forever
To drown, my soul in Sensory
Pleasure, Sensory, pleasure

Here it comes again
You raise the bar even higher
I cannot catch my breath
So throw the beauty on the fire
Dont push too hard
Limitation scars

3: Satellite

Do you lie awake in the morning
Trying to find a reason to call me
Cause honey all that Ive been doing
Is thinking about your smile
But none of this is necessary-
with me baby
You see baby
Cause I like to keep it all simple

Cause you are my Satellite
So Im trying to keep you in sight
But with all this space
Can we keep it alive
Keep it alive
So Im asking you baby
Are you coming down tonight

Theres something in the air tonight
That feels right
But youre keeping me guessing and Im-
finding it hard to catch your eye
So move a little closer
Its alright
I know what youre thinking
Youve been circling me for a while


4: Do You Love

Child, it's broke
And I feel you slipping away
Child, you spoke
And the world fell silent again
Do you love
Do you need love
Child, undone
By fear of falling through cracks
Child, by one mistake, you've-
lost your way back

(Somethings gotta turn you round)

Do you love
Do you need love
When your angels shout
Is your heart strung out

Do you love
Do you need love
When your angels fall
Have you lost it all

Child be still
In the storm to wave us goodbye
Child we will
Return to dance with the sky

Do you love
Do you need love
When your angels shout
Is your heart strung out

Do you love
Do you need love
When your angels fall
Have you lost it all

Do you love
Do you need love
When your angels cry
Does your spirit die


5: Wrong Impression

Calling out, calling out
Haven't you wondered
Why I'm always alone
When you're in my dreams
Calling out, calling out
Haven't you wondered
Why youre finding it hard-
just looking at me

I want you
But I want you to understand
I leave you
I love you

Didn't want to leave you with-
the wrong impression
Didn't want to leave you with my-
last confession
Of love
Wasn't trying to pull you in the-
wrong direction
All I wanna do is try and make-
a connection
Of love
Falling out, falling out
Haven't you wondered
If this was ever more than a-
crazy idea
Falling out, falling out
Haven't you wondered
What we could've been, if you'd-
only let me in

I want you
But I want you to understand
I miss you
I love you

Didn't want to leave you with-
the wrong impression
Didn't want to leave you with-
my last confession
Of love
Wasn't trying to pull you in the-
wrong direction
All I wanna do is try and make a-
connection
Of love

I need you
I love you


6: Goodbye

Everydays the same, I feel them merge
I try to separate, resist the urge
But they tell me Ill be fine
That it will all get better
Just try to write it down
Or put it in a letter

But the words wont play
And theres no easy way to say
Goodbye, Goodbye

Keep my head on straight and dont-
look down
With all Ive pushed away Im losing
ground
But they tell me Ill be fine
That it will all get better
Just try to write it down
Or put it in a letter

But the words wont play
And theres no easy way to say
Goodbye, Goodbye

And from the sidelines
Watch me fall down

And I dont understand the things I do
But Ill probably be fine
As long as I keep moving
Ill try to write it down
So things just keep improving

Still the words wont play
Cause theres no easy way to say
Goodbye, Goodbye


7: Everything Goes

You live your life
You live like an Island
Satisfied
You live for the moment
Here you come
You make it look easy
I bet you smile in your sleep
Are you smiling at me

You live your life
You live like an island
Surrounded by, water and silence
Mmm there you go
You make it look easy
I bet you laugh at yourself
Are you laughing at me

Cause sometimes anything goes
When youre looking at me
And sometimes everything goes
When youre looking at me

So come on, come on, everything goes
(When youre looking at me)
Come on, come on, everything goes
(Sometimes when youre smiling at me)
Come on, come on, everything goes

Come on

You live your life
You live like an island
What is it like
I wish I could hold it
Mmm there you go
Making it look easy
I bet you like how it feels
But do you feel me

So come on, come on, anything goes
Come on, come on, everything goes
Come on, come on, everything goes

Cause sometimes anything goes
When youre looking at me
And sometimes everything goes


8: Hurricane

It came on like a hurricane
And I don't understand
And it moved me like a slow dance
Still I don't understand
It pushed me like a tailwind
And I don't understand
And it came in through the back door
And I don't understand
Still I don't understand

You're all that I could need
And I'm falling on my knees

Hurricane
You pulled me out of the past
And landed me in today
Hurricane
You pulled me out of the past
And walked me into tomorrow
Hurricane

It picked me like a cherry
And I don't understand
And it killed me with the craving
Still I don't understand
It thrilled me to starvation
And I don't understand
And it stripped me ugly naked
And I don't understand
Still I don't understand

You're all that I could be
And I'm falling on my knees


9: Sunlight

Today we don't know who we are
Ashamed, hiding behind the scars
Too many times we let the things-
we feel
Get in the way of letting us heal-
the wounds
That open in the dark

Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever taste clouds
Did you ever touch space
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever truly live

So walk, in time to life's refrain
Relax, don't do it to yourself again
Decaying yourself with all the love
you won't give
Killing yourself about the way you-
don't live now
Cause you're not gonna live forever

Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever taste clouds
Did you ever touch space
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever truly live

Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever breathe hope
Did you ever dance with grace
Did you ever feel sunlight on your face
Did you ever truly live


10: Talk In Tongues

When you beat on that drum
Talk in that tongue
Youre just scratching on-
the surface
So tell me what it means
A whisper to a scream
Slowly fades away

Then you wake up
And tomorrow is today
And youre crying, crying like-
a baby
Caught between the tides
(Did you lose your way)
You lost your way
(Did you lose your way)
You lost your way

Do you know where I've been
Walls are caving in
It moves across a wire
There no need to talk
I crawl as you walk
Pushing me away

Flowers in the bin
Close this hole I'm in
Everything was one
Nothing gets undone
You pay the bill
You lost your will
Just run away until


11: Butterflies

Swallow purple terror candy
Don't forget to breathe
Sickened by the wanting
And drowning from the need
This dichromatic vision
Of one who does not care
To sipping cocktail sedatives
Two months to hide somewhere

Butterflies, Butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies, Butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that-
you walk over

The wolf has caught the chicken
And now I feel unsteady
Emotions on the blink again
So kick me when you're ready
Here lies a violet coffin
The death of my control
Along with all my skeletons
They put them in the hole

Sickened by the notion
I give myself again
Choking on the bullet, the gun-
thats found a friend
So raise your glass to sorrow
And drink to all the pain
Tie a silver ribbon around
The pieces that remain

Butterflies, Butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies, Butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that-
you walk over


12: Come September

Her bones will ache
Her mouth will shake
And as the passion dies
Her magic heart will break
Shell fly to France
Cause theres no chance
No hope for Cinderella
Come September

Her violet sky
Will need to cry
Cause if it doesnt rain
Then everything will die
She needs to heal
She needs to feel
Something more than tender
Come September

Everything wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September

The souls that burn
Will twist and turn and find-
you in the dark
No matter where you run
Shes made her mark
But lost her spark
And what shes pushing for
She cant remember

Everything wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September

Her eyes surrender, her cry a-
crying shame
Coming undone is she ever gonna-
feel the same

She will run
Shes gonna drink the sun
Shining just for you
Instead of everyone
And so it goes
Shell stand alone
And try not to remember
Come September

Everything Wrong
Gonna be alright
Come September
