Pretty Lately
03:24

|
I'm on a roll, out on the town
Gone for a stroll, rambling 'round
Palatine
Drinking wine
As I dine
I've been sitting pretty lately
All in all, tumbling down
I've lost control, wearing the crown
There's a feeling I can't shake
On a course that I've mistaken for
Another day or so I'll go
All alone, I come around
Unconsoled

Pleased to make your acquaintance - I’m the head of relations
We are all secret agents - got you under surveillance
To see your reflection - we can’t go on without it
To make a connection - is all we really want of this
All we really want of this
Is your heart and your soul and your mind
All we ever have to give
Is a way to align
To see your reflection - we can’t go on without it
To make a connection - is all we really want of this
All we really want of this
Is your heart and your soul and your mind
All we ever have to give
Is a way to align
So line up, line up, line up, line up
Line up, line up, line up, line up

Digging down, always breaking new ground
Buildings rise, closing in on the sky
Holding on, over your dominion
Holding out, for another billion
If there’s something left to learn
We’ll cross that bridge when it’s well and burned
All that is wrong is claimed as right
There’s a tunnel at the end of the light
However far it seems (it’s a steam train, headin’ our way)
However far it seems (it’s a steam train, headin’ our way)
However far it seems (it’s a steam train, headin’ our way)
However far it seems away
If there’s something left to learn
We’ll cross that bridge when it’s well and burned
All that is wrong is claimed as right
There’s a tunnel at the end of the light
There’s a tunnel at the end of the light
There’s a tunnel at the end of the light
There’s a tunnel at the end of the light

Pass The Curse On
06:38
|

Pass the curse on to your loved ones
Spin your wheels again
No relief from all the pressure
Got no time to try to figure it out
…while you’re riddled with doubt
On the back foot, on your last legs
Who will help you when
All your dreams are out the window
Do you look for someone to take it out on?
A love you hope to outrun
Now I’m on a diff’rent course
There Is no reward for what you have in store
And I will not run this race
There’s no time nor place to participate

I can’t help but feel we’ve been taken for a ride
Up and down and around the countryside
Bound in chains, driven far and wide
Creatures on parade for a dime
Who will pay the ransom?
No one else will make this happen
Run… and take your chances
A hungry bear never dances
Freedom from the cage is the apple of its eye
All that’s needed is a cool disguise
Have you seen a shaven bear?
It was last seen over there
Dancing free without a care
... for its hide
Who knows why you’re fearin’
What you choose to believe in
And while this question goes unanswered
The hungry bear never dances

Electrocution Dreamed
04:12
|
|||
|
I was invented in the twentieth century
A vision of electrocution dreamed
With a box of flowers and a suit of white
He may just get lucky tonight
All is not as it seems
some plans fall apart at the seams
It’s an electrocution dreamed
In the lonely hour of the dying light
He won’t go down without a fight
All is not as it seems
Hope holds on for late night schemes
When the moon begins to gleam
What if luck retires….… and the clouds roll in
With a box of flowers…. and a suit of white
He may just get lucky tonight

Lone Wolf Returns
03:07
|
|||
|
I’ve cheated once or twice before
May have even broke the law
Searching for an easy score
I decide…
To cross the state line and steal what I can find
I will not be denied another try
I cross the straight lines to overtake your mind
And rearrange the life of the times
Of the times…
I’ve come a-knocking on the door
With a rabid hunger for
Feeling self-assured
I decide…
To join the canines, regain a sense of pride
With foreign lands afield to colonise
I have their best mind and hope that they have mine
So none of us ever falls behind
Of the line…

Time

The big hand takes its time
The small hand can’t unwind
Second thoughts are creeping in
And ours are dreams that have been… and gone
