Illusion (Storm)

look at the horizon
we know there's a storm comin
the skies are lookin peaceful
we've been livin in denial
didn't even stand a chance
didn't even fought it back
nothin comes easy
whoever told you that
thought we were fine but an illusion was all we had
never believed it would go so wrong
had our heads in the sand
didn't see where it came from
lookin for solutions
they don't seem to work at all so we jump into conclusions
we stare at the horizon
knowin there's a storm comin
still skies are lookin peaceful

It's Surreal!
03:32
|

|
the idea of you
picture perfect
like nothin else is certain
like color on the frame
the idea of you
will never leave me
will never let me down or carry no burden
so if I were to loose you
if I were to loose that image of you
the idea of you
it's a membrane I can't get thru
the idea of you - it's surreal!
the idea of you
makes no difference if we're making it thru
the idea of you - it's surreal!

Forgive me
02:55
|
|||
|
I don't know
did I leave you with a bad something?
I don't know
did you find my way to amuse you an excuse to loose you?
'cause I don't remember
I don't recall
no, I don't remember bein false but I must have done you wrong
'cause now you're gone
so please forgive me
I feelin insecure and lonely
you're my one and only love
don't mind them others, they'll decline or cut thru us like bread and wine
you're my one and only love
please forgive me

When In Bloom
02:21
|
|||
|
now you're down & the low keys are playin
& it hurts 'cause you don't understand what they're sayin
but when in bloom
the world all around you is shattered
when in bloom
you come alive 'cause you feel like it matters
& it matters to you
then you're down where the low keys are playin
but a daydream won't save you from the feelin
just enough to keep your head up above the surface
a need to get yourself over the hurdles

In The Shape Of A Girl
03:18
|
|||
|
ever since I crossed it
that line's too thin to walk
I try to place a question but all I get is cheap talk
ever since I lost my mind
it won't come back it seems
& I've got no companion but me
& here she comes to pose a threat
in the shape of a girl
ever since I crossed her
have I been the same
I try to break it down to evolution
but it still calls my name
& pose a threat
in the shape of a girl
everyday is a wonder
everyday is a thief & they come like nights to me
& pose a threat
in the shape of a girl

Sure Shot
02:48

|
I'm gonna be the last thing you'll see
the last thing you'll see is me
pretendin I'm a sure shot
you are the things that you've got
there comes a time when you're not
then yessir I'm gonna be the last thing you'll see
Mammon is a preacher
those money talks to keep you quiet
let them speak, let them finish
it's a world war for guineas
Mammon is a teacher
I know I did you wrong but now we're way past it
I made my move & then I got drafted
Mammon is a leech
you never gonna reach her
o she's gettin weary in that shabby chic dress
it's a mess
now put the cage to the test

Flyover You
02:44
|
|||
|
a sudden change of heart
an opportunity start
I built this house with memories
both from you but most from me
shine equality star
so good so far
noones bizniz what you do
secrets for me & for you
& shine my equality star above
if there's a road I'm comin
the crow flies & guide my way
if there's a road I'm comin
walk thru night & day
if there's a road I'm comin
don't believe the word
don't believe the phrase
don't you know when love comes
it flies over you & the stars above

Somebody To Love
03:19
|
|||
|
it's about time you found yourself somebody to love
someone to love
someone to hold
someone to makebelieve you thru when the night is cold
somewhere to be
somewhere to go
somewhere to cry if you want to

Predictable As You
02:47
|
|||
|
let's get back to basics, back to school
I wanna be a fugazi or somebody's fool
predictable as you
show me the money, where's the gadgets
one flew over papa's nest so I can understand it
make me feel like it's real life
