She Needs A Miracle
03:40

She feels good! Looks even better!
She's got everything a woman could need.
She's got friends and steady money.
She works hard
She knows how to succeed.
But when she gets home
She is all alone
She needs a man to be there
To hold her tight.
She needs a miracle tonight!
She calls the girls and dresses up
To go dancing at the downtown club.
She makes friends
And spends some money
She plays hard
She knows how to hang out.
But when she gets home
She is all alone
She needs a man to be there
To hold her tight.
She needs a miracle tonight!
Is there no one in love with you?
Just look around!
He's right there in front of you.
Can't you see the change in his eyes
When he laughs "hello"
And he cries "goodbye"?
He needs a miracle tonight.
She gets up early, Saturday morning
And goes cruising 'round the streets of her town.
She meets the man,
The one who loves her,
The start talking 'till the sun goes down.
And when she got home
She just ran to the phone
To tell her friends of the man
Who swept her away.
Oh it's a miracle today!

Come To The Sea
03:57
|
|||
|
The air is heavy and it weighs me down
I find it kind of hard to breathe.
I see you standing with your tarnished crown
And all I want to do is flee.
Come! Come to the sea where life is free.
Cast away restrictions from your mind,
Peers will keep you bound in stone.
Let the waters wash away the time,
Then you'll never be alone.
Come! Come to the sea,
Where life is free and you can be with me
And you can rise up and you can size up
All that you can
So you can make a plan.
Oh come! Come to the sea with me.
Listen to the voices in your mind,
Troubles boiling up inside,
Urban solitude is never kind,
Let me take you for a rid.
Come! Come to the sea,
Where life is free and you can be with me
And you can rise up and you can size up
All that you can
So you can make a plan.
Oh come! Come to the sea with me.
Now you're beaming like the sparkling sand,
Don't think we've ever felt so free.
This philosophy is oh so grand,
Promise me you'll never leave.
Come! Come to the sea,
Where life is free and you can be with me
And you can rise up and you can size up
All that you can
So you can make a plan.
Oh come! Come to the sea with me.

My Hometown
04:18
|
|||
|
Something's happening to my hometown
The norm bleeds into the strange
Ancient buildings being taken down
I guess that's the price of change.
Where is it going to?
What will it mean to me?
It doesn't happen fast but I feel it creeping up on me
All my friends are leaving for somewhere
Strangers come and take their place
They've got money but they don't work here
Put down your hammer and join the race
Join the race.
Something's happening to my hometown
Everything is going great
We've got money but our backyards are gone
Where are we supposed to play?
Where is it going to?
What will it mean to me?
It doesn't happen fast but I feel it creeping up on me
All my friends are leaving for somewhere
Strangers come and take their place
They've got money but they don't work here
Put down your hammer and join the race
Join the race.
Well thank you very much I feel my welcome here is done
You do not need me so I think I'm going to run
Distant voices call me from across the land
They know what I can do
So I say goodbye to you.
Something's happened to my hometown
It looks familiar but it's not the same
A little more grey and a little less green
It didn't have to be this way.
Where is it going to?
What will it mean to me?
It doesn't happen fast but I feel it creeping up on me
All my friends are leaving for somewhere
Strangers come and take their place
They've got money but they don't work here
Put down your hammer and join the race
Join the race.

Landscapes
03:32
|

|
Take a walk on a frozen lake
With the low noon sun in the sky!
Arctic winds from a deep blue heaven
Whistle melodies from on high.
Cold white blankets of sparkling crystalline lattices can make you blind.
To see the beauty of a winter landscape
You must open up your mind
To see it shine!
Take a walk on the hot dry sands
Of a land that sees no rain.
Life is all around you,
Invisible to predators on the plain.
Vegetation that is hearty and bold thrives sparingly it's so sublime.
To see the beauty of a desert landscape
You must open yup your mind
To see it shine!
Oh yeah! I got to take it all in!
Appreciation of the beauty of a visually desolate thing.
Why can't we enjoy this world for what it is?
Without it we would never have been able to start to exist.
Listen to the wisdom of the sages.
Live life to the fullest for all time.
Take a walk on a rainy day through the autumn streets of cold
Trees of summertime are chemically altering to hues of red and gold.
All denominations of creatures prepare for the winter time.
To see the beauty of a summer dying you must open up your mind
To see it shine!

Interaction
04:42
|
|||
|
Information coming down the highway
At the speed of light.
Hangs a left on the media turnpike
Then goes to the right.
Can't slow it down! It's hard to impound.
Ones and zeros make the world go around.
Situations on occasions tend to lose control.
Conflicts rise up out of nothing at all.
Can't slow it down! It's hard to impound.
Spreads like a disease on an infested town.
Too much data hurts!
I don't need to be first,
I will survive on my own.
Stress is hounding me!
I don't need it, see?
Let me go back to my home.
People hurry, people worry
About living their life.
One person's problem causes everyone strife.
Can't slow it down! It's hard to impound.
Our souls are strengthening when crises about.
Too much data hurts!
I don't need to be first,
I will survive on my own.
Stress is hounding me!
I don't need it, see?
Let me go back to my home.
Interaction is a faction that we cannot avoid.
It gives us pleasure but we can get annoyed.
Can't slow it down! It's hard to impound.
Contradictions point to where the truth may be found.
Too much data hurts!
I don't need to be first,
I will survive on my own.
Stress is hounding me!
I don't need it, see?
Let me go back to my home.

Not Fair
04:22
|

Far away in a distant city, he wonders.
Home alone on a starry evening,
She sits and waits.
Staring out into nowhere, he ponders.
Looking out of her open window,
She sees his face
It makes no sense, it defies intent!
It's not fair to anyone...anyone at all.
Time passes him by, he sits and waits.
Crying into a pillow, she can't understand.
Screwing up his courage, he calls her.
The phone rings in her empty flat.
No answer.
It makes no sense, it defies intent!
It's not fair to anyone...anyone at all
And they're both thinking
"I want to be here right now,
Looking into your eyes.
I want to be here right now,
Flying in circles!
I want to be here right now,
There's something I want to say.
I want to be here right now,
But not if you're far away
When you're so far away."
It makes no sense, it defies intent!
It's not fair to anyone...anyone at all
And they're both thinking
"I want to be here right now,
Looking into your eyes.
I want to be here right now,
Flying in circles!
I want to be here right now,
There's something I want to say.
I want to be here right now,
But not if you're far away
When you're so far away."

I've got no problem with you my friend,
I'm just another pair of eyes.
Why do you need to pick a fight?
Am I too short, too thin, too wide?
How do you see me?
Your anger's from a darkened place.
It doesn't matter what I say!
You'll twist my words around it,
You need to keep me grounded,
To keep your head above the crowd!
Take a breath! Look around! Go away!
Clear the head! Don't think in any way.
Regroup, regret, rethink, rewind.
Respect is a state of mind!
If you could live within yourself,
How would you like your Hotel Ritz?
Waiting in some lonely room.
Isolation is the pits.
Can you see me?
Your anger's wrapped me in a shroud.
My words are smothered, not allowed!
You'll wrap my words inside it,
You need to keep me grounded,
To keep your head above the crowd!
Take a breath! Look around! Go away!
Clear the head! Don't think in any way.
Regroup, regret, rethink, rewind.
Respect is a state of mind!
I've got no problem with you again,
I'm just another pair of eyes
I don't need to be your friend
Just let me live my bloody life!
You do not see me!
But that's okay 'cause you're a jerk.
I hide behind your squid mirk.
You'll sink my words inside it,
To keep my ego grounded,
So you can rise above the crowd!
Take a breath! Look around! Go away!
Clear the head! Don't think in any way.
Regroup, regret, rethink, rewind.
Respect is a state of mind!

Ophelia

Ophelia, I really want to hold you.
Ophelia, I really should have told you.
Walk to me! Sing a song to me!
Don't wake me, your mystique is waning.
Who art thou? What incites thy power?
I'm flying, like a bee to a flower.
Oh siren! Show your hand to guide me!
Ophelia, I belong to thee.
Life was going fine until I drank your wine
The vintage was a shade of blue.
Alone and afraid I couldn't see it coming
My sober thought was running away
Then I met you.
Ophelia, I have lost control.
Ophelia, help me find my role.
Why do you care so much for me?
Ophelia, I belong to thee.
Life was going fine until I drank your wine
The vintage was a shade of blue.
Alone and afraid I couldn't see it coming
My sober thought was running away
Then I met you.

It's Alive Here
04:19

Morning's come around.
Snow is coming down.
The sun has yet to rise.
The world is quiet.
I think that I'm in touch with gentle music.
I can feel the fires of life beneath the snow.
It's coming through the air,
Promising renewal.
Give my breath to me.
Send it through my veins!
Morning's come around.
Sun is beating down.
Crystals liquefy.
The world is stirring.
I think that I'm in touch with gentle music.
I can feel the fires of life beneath the snow.
It's coming through the air,
Promising renewal.
Give my breath to me.
Send it through my veins!
It's alive here!
I can feel the confrontation.
Opposite forces balancing perfect continuity.
It's alive here!
I believe the feeling's mutual.
I can see the energies flowing 'round about me.
Oh! The snow has turned to rain!
It'a never-ending game!
It's alive here!
I can feel the confrontation.
Opposite forces balancing perfect continuity.
It's alive here!
I believe the feeling's mutual.
I can see the energies flowing 'round about me.
Morning's come around...

Tides
05:09

I want to fly like Superman and see the people on the ground.
Their matchbox city spreading on across the land.
Living out their puny lives
The can't imagine what they've done.
Stepping on each other's dreams so they can touch the sun.
But what do they do when the lights go out or
Disaster looms or war breaks out?
United the stand and divided they fall
Their hearts are filled with fire and gall
Until the enemy is gone.
I want to fly like Superman and go to every single town
To find the poisons that brew ill before the stew is done.
There is no land that's sacred now, industry gets right-of-way.
Incorporated agriculture feeds the ones who can pay.
What do they do when the air grows thin
And the moonlight's clouded by mortal sin?
together they look inside their hearts
And beat the drum of a brand new start
Until the last day has come.
Every time I turn around I see a tide approaching!
No one sees it coming! Panicking and running the fly about,
Trying not to drown in a wave of change!
The tide is low. The water's gone.
Medicine goes down with jam.
Sweet relief and celebration ripples through the land.
Smarter now but humbled too
They try to find some better way.
Because no Superman is there to come and save the day.
But what do they do when the good times roll
When material treasures can rape their souls?
People take care the tide will return
The dyes will burst and the cities will burn!
Lesson studied but never learned.
