Long Run
03:50
|

|
As of late it's been a roller coaster
Flew off the tracks straight into the skyline of New York City
Whoever you want to be, you're only stopping yourself
Has it been forever
Now every time we get together, we're losing track of our days
In fact we lose ourselves
See who I've kept up with as time rolls on
That fateful dance
It took me years to pick myself up from that deep blue
Couldn't have done it without you
You see yourself in the crowd, gazed to the floor
I may be wrong but doesn't everyone wanna be a little more
Staring at the gate, is it time to cross, is it too late
A new day has risen, we're sticking it out for the long run
We were wasting time living out every fantasy
All the while we knew
There were chores to be done
We lost all train of thought, sticking side by side
I say take a chance, you say done
That fateful dance
It took me years to pick myself out from that deep blue
Couldn't have done it without you
But now we're out on our own
Don't sit beside, we're never looking back again
We're closer than you may think, don't fear
What is the reason for you coming here
Now we're out on our own
Never looking back again
We're closer than you may think, my dear
What is the reason for you coming here
Now we're out on our own
Staring at the gate, is it time to cross or is it a little too late

Wrong

I kept a watch, you had an ear to the wall
Can't help but wonder if they'll show up at all
Why'd you hide your face for the whole flight in
You never stood for the cause
You're cold towards me, I've been here too long
Fixed up the place so we could get along
Even changed out the records so you wouldn't complain
I want honesty, no games, why do you seem so ashamed
Unglued so easily
Stop where I am, Ill let you catch up
Got to put in the extra effort
Can't be afraid to ever dance or
Give them a call when you need answers
No answer
Stood us up cold without a warning, such a misfire, man
What's to gain, do you really mean to start a war
You're running for me as fast as you can
Somewhere in my heart, I know that it's wrong
But I won't break so easily
Say, whatever happened to listening to the song
But in my heart I know, I know
Guilty conscience, but I'm still getting on
Say what you will, at least I know I was wrong
Guilty conscience, but I'm still getting on
Say what you will, at least I know I was wrong

Revival
03:37
|

|
I keep count of my steps across the room
It's all a game, the phone could ring at any moment soon
Don't ever fall under, she said, so what drove us apart
Seems less likely come each day
Don't you ever wanna kick it down
Forget about the cons, remember all the best of times
It's your choice, I've got my voice
Will it sink, will you start to think that it was the right one
Every street that I could search, every corner I could turn
And I'd find none quite like yourself, it's useless to even try
Find your way back, and I'm telling you
I'll take back what I said, let me through
Cause it was your choice
This is your time, come for me
And if by chance that you decide to turn the tide
Might help me sleep tonight
I'd take back, but the feedback was silent
Holding onto what she said
Stand back and take a deep breath
Speak your mind, you're so hard to find
While everyone's much sweeter in my dreams
Don't you ever wanna kick it down
It's your choice, here's my voice
These streets I search, these corners I turn
And I find none quite like yourself
Why you gotta leave me out of the picture
Do you really want to, do you wanna
I'm telling you
I'll take back what I said, let me through
Want to, I'm telling you
I'll take back what I said, let me through
Because this is your choice, it's your choice
Give me that call

Turn Away
02:28
|
|||
|
Taking care of the folks that'll be
Around me when the going gets so rough
Could be the freaks on the family tree
Got to keep em' close, hope it's enough
And I know, you throw your coat on, you're out the door
Doing what you can just to avoid
Deeds to be done, but you can't find the time, slips away
And how, I'll never understand
The ones you care for that care for you too
Looking out, when it's not the way you planned
My favorite move is the turn-away
How much longer can I keep the pace?
Just got my mind on a lot tonight
The melody that keeps my brain a stir
How could I lie, and say I don't care when I do
This didn't go the way I planned
Oh, don't you know
Nothing ever goes the way you plan

Shaky Knees
03:45
|

|
Shaky Knees, you plugged something into my socket
We come prepared, the need was honest
We went the distance, made decisions
All else could be falling apart
Worth it all when the day comes
All those songs that helped us forget the distance
Had to miss our plans to make it there
Drove all night, dropped every care
My starlet, what else could be bothering you
Trunk is full, bags are packed, were good
The distance rumbles songs presented
Drenched in sweat, hotter than ever
And I can't be everything you want me to
Tell you I'll stop by, I won't follow through
The date was set, won't change the plans for you
Fields alive
I heard a few times before
That you don't want anything to do with the crew
Since we dropped everything for the show, it was Shaky Knees
And it plugged something into my socket

Flashing Green
04:02
|
|||
|
Thoughts are flashing green
Will you go for
You're tired of your streets, your heart's out overseas
The facts are laid out on your table
Now wipe the dirt that's been building up on your screen for years
Still clutching underneath
You take a closer look, no truth's been rearranged
You ache to make the climb but you don't wanna change
Perhaps you forgot the plan that set the course
Watching them on their way, watching tables turn
This is the chance, do what you want
No use being stuck on the ground
Arrival without notice
You're throwing out every lock, cause it's the chance
Your thoughts are flashing green
Will you go for
You're tired of your streets, you want out overseas
The facts are laid out on your table
It seems darkness took over your home
If I were you, I'd flee
Impossible to see the first ones at the scene
Still got those facts on your table
Get back to me before you're not able
Get back to me before you're not able
Still got your facts right on your table

Moving Forward
04:39
|
|||
|
Ready for the catch 'cause here comes the throw
Always ending up in this kind of mood
And I'm not up for throwing the stone
I'm passing on from
a moment we could never undo
Once was simple
Closed minds, never realized we were letting go
Next time hold a sign so I'll know were moving forward
Thats the next direction were going in
So when the ground falls beneath us, you better not blame me
More to follow
Where to begin again once you're so sunk in
And why insist that old deed still matters, I'm tugging harder
With every word you say, there's fire, you've blown a fuse
Turning around
The wheel won't roll too far once it's on it's own
So are you on board, why don't you open your door
Matter of fact, once I tried to quit
You wouldn't even let me think about
Giving up on what we made
Matter of fact, once I tried to quit
You wouldn't even let me think about
Giving up on what we made, we've shifted
When the ground falls beneath us, you better not blame me
You singled out me

Inverted
03:34

Crazy visions in my spotlight right over
The skyline I see as my checkpoint
Sent a distress signal, caught right on time
For me to return to my Earth, and are you on
Sunshine proves to be fading down
Can't find a single station to stay on, endless observation
Come in, operator
I'll save the heavy stuff for later
You've got me on a new kick
Can't you see me running down the isles
Lost your face and profiles
Where's the glow, too far gone
Swimming in the deepest current
We're gonna feel some division
The boat is on the show but only on board
Hey, I'm being taken, taken in many more ways
Many more ways than one, I'm still gone
We're being owned with no faces shown
Doing all in their power to prevent
Your mind from catching on
So when it's face to face, yea
You'll never notice
It's not the traitors
Who are keeping me down
As they step up to the podium
Mislead the crowd
Control yourselves, you mad masters
Unless being inverted is what you're after
Some display much greater
Then the sin comes to surface
When half the world's twisted
Can you spot the signs early in your own space
When your'e forced to crawl out to keep your face
Far too many places to never go
We're being owned with no faces shown
Doing all in their power to prevent
Your mind from catching on
So when it's face to face, oh
You'll never notice
Come in, operator
Save the heavy stuff for later
People caught up in a new kick
When you're in, send my salute to those setters
They've taken control
Are you still with me
Have I got you on the other end still
Never-ending clicking in my ears until
Owners being owned
And all faces shown
Lost it all, lost the power to prevent
Our minds from keeping up
So when it's face to face, oh yea
The choice is yours
We love what we do
We love who we are
We're Dobis P.R.

Cage
04:41
|

Dear lousy street
Nobody took too kindly to any kind of jokes
Quite hard to carry on your goals
You slip in a stream
Today's just the same
A crowd surrounding me, then turning away
I've been here for years
Locking up all of my fears away
And pretending they're not here to stay
A scene so clear
I see it everywhere I wonder
Unrestful state, I'm looking for ease
Trying to create it on our own
The full-circle theory seems proven to be true
Imperfect taste, remembering what you're made of
Who's the one who made the great mistake
You've got me in a cage
Where do we belong
Taking for granted everything, oh
Shall we step away
Keep it calm, might as well
Have been out of control for so long
Rearrange yourself, okay
Could you make it out on your own
Or shall we hire maids
Keep it calm, might as well
Have been out of control for so long
Found a way to look outside, without a guide
Turned out to be a further jump of speed
Very sweet and diminishing
A part of me wants to see
A light shining outside
But I'm still in your cage today
That's where I belong
Help me understand misery
Take for granted everything
Where do we belong
Taking for granted everything, oh
Shall we step away
Keep it calm, might as well
Have been out of control for so long
Rearrange myself today
Could we make it out on our own
Or leave it up to fate
Keep it calm, might as well
Have been out of control for so long
Helps me understand

City that Always Aches
04:51
|
|||
|
Finally approaching, what to do when you get there
You say you got some plans, see them through to the end
You told me I need dignity, I'm not quite sure what you mean
A taste so sweet, to only dream do I dare
To follow in the footsteps that led me here
Skip your resort or your mansion on the lake
I just wanna exist in the city that always aches
I just let you inside
There isn't much space, we can still take a wild ride
Though I must admit, atmospheres a bit thick
Otherwise, it's all the same
Wondering, why does everything have to change
Beyond these doors used to be a stage
And we'd put on any show we'd like
Though I shouldn't get too caught up in things like
How it used to be
Thought I knew what was real
That's just how I feel
Why can't I put it all on the shelf and leave
We're finally approaching, what to do when you get there
You say you got some plans, see them through to the end
A taste so sweet, to only dream do I dare
To follow in the footsteps that led me here
I'm gonna exist in the city that always aches
