You get in from the weather
Going dancing’s your social calling
This night will be better
A few drinks just to get you started
The house will rock and you will drop to the floor tonight
When the DJ calls your name
Eyes will pop as you cast off your top on the floor tonight
When the DJ calls your name
You couldn’t be better
Everything going the way you wanted
Except for this fella
Another drink it gets distorted
You’re contemplating openly dating, where were you?
When the DJ calls your name
It’s insulting just how the chanting smothered you
When the DJ calls your name
It feels like its over
Its only half past eleven
We’re running low on money
But plastic roads lead to heaven
The house will rock and you will drop to the floor tonight
When the DJ calls your name
Eyes will pop as you cast off your top on the floor tonight
When the DJ calls your name
You thought this was forever
The future this day repeated
Nobody would tell ya
It all just falls to pieces
You’re contemplating openly dating, where were you?
When the DJ calls your name
It’s insulting just how the chanting smothered you
When the DJ calls your name
You’re contemplating openly dating, where were you?
When the DJ calls your name
It’s insulting just how the chanting smothered you
When the DJ calls your name

Flying High

Flying high, over the fields
I walked last night, it’s so unreal
The clouds around me called me to play
I wonder how you might feel?
I love to fly, it’s so wonderful
I love to fly, it’s so beautiful
It’s unreal, to feel the air around me
It’s unreal, to catch the sun this way
I love to fly, over the fields
A glint of light, shining on my wings
I love to fly, under the moon
I love to fly, over you
It’s beautiful, when I see you
Waving up at me, how would I know?
I love to fly, under the moon
It’s so beautiful, it’s so beautiful
Won’t you come with me and let me show you
What it's like to leave the world below you?
Flying high, over the fields
I walked last night, it’s so unreal
The clouds around me called me to play
I wonder how you might Feel?
I love to fly, it’s so wonderful
I love to fly, it’s so beautiful
It’s unreal, to feel the air around me
It’s so beautiful, it’s so beautiful
I love to fly over you

Reflections of Your Face
04:32
|

Look up! Friend...
The future is in front of you, not down there by your feet
Many men tried to fool you about what is cool and what you need
But you are the one who makes the choices about how you party and when you feed
Don’t be holding back, don’t be running from
Reflections of your face
Don’t be falling down, don’t be haunted by
Reflections of your face
It's hard to go on a journey without leaving someone close behind
But if voyage you must, then take your heart with you
Don’t freeze your soul in time
Don’t be holding back, don’t be running from
Reflections of your face
Don’t be falling down, don’t be haunted by
Reflections of your face
You will never find yourself, if you never choose to look
Those who truly care about you always love to see you back
So don’t be holding back, don’t be running from
Reflections of your face
Don’t be falling down, don’t be haunted by
Reflections of your face
Don’t be holding back, don’t be running from
Reflections of your face
Don’t be falling down, don’t be haunted by
Reflections of your face

Snowclear

When the snow clears I’ll come and find you
Even if its a dangerous drive
When the ice melts I’m right beside you
In your eyes I will confide
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
Snowflakes define the morning
A landscape lost in the dawn
Crystalline tempor'y shine
Your reflection in the door
You want to reach out to me
But there's a whole load of snow in-between
When the snow clears I’ll come and find you
Even if its a dangerous drive
When the ice melts I’m right beside you
In your eyes I will confide
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
Sun breaks and eats the awning
A welcome glimmer of warm
Like a candle finally melting
The road is beginning to thaw
You want to reach out to me
But there's a whole load of snow in-between
When the snow clears I’ll come and find you
Even if its a dangerous drive
When the ice melts I’m right beside you
In your eyes I will confide
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
Bright white in all directions
And debris all over the road
When the snow clears I’ll come and find you
Even if its a dangerous drive
When the ice melts I’m right beside you
In your eyes I will confide
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
When the snow clears I’m coming for you
Coming for you

Music for a Porn Show

I can feel your temperature risin’
Your eyes are telling me what you need
Something here that you’re despising
But you can’t escape your need
It’s like music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
Music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
A flash of leg was how this started
Was it a signal or a tease?
Animal instincts got you parted
Instant chemical brain release
It’s like music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
Music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
Oh baby, you know you make me
Wanna film you naked
Oh baby, you know you make me
Wanna film you naked
It’s like music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
Music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
Fifty channels at your disposal
Every flavour that you might need
Ready to take you on a love excursion
But turn your back they’ll make you bleed
It’s like music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
Music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
It’s like music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!
It’s like music for a porn show
You gotta let go
Music for a porn show
Yeah! Yeah!

Bubble
04:51
|

The error’s in the coffee
As a frown defines your face again
Then you look at me honey
The sun just rose again
Across your sweet September eyes
Reflect; Shadows of thine enemies
Portrayed in myths and lies
Listen what they tell me:
To them it is just a game
In which I play the dancing fool
But you know it’s the only way
Lest I’d be untrue
You’re lost in your bubble
You thought you could save me
But sharing your bubble
Has only made you hate me
Your bubble, is trouble
Your bubble, is trouble
A book recalls you’re read
I’d give a penny for ‘em
In fact, I could have said
I’d give up everything for you
For that look in your eyes
Protected from thine enemies
But you lost me in your lies
Oh, listen what they tell me:
To them it is just a game
In which I play the dancing fool
But you know it’s the only way
Lest I’d be untrue
You’re lost in your bubble
You thought you could save me
But sharing your bubble
Has only made you hate me
Your bubble, is trouble
Your bubble, is trouble
To them it is just a game
In which I play the dancing fool
But you know it’s the only way
Lest I’d be untrue
You’re lost in your bubble, it's trouble
Your bubble, is trouble
You’re lost in your bubble
You thought you could save me
But sharing your bubble
Has only made you hate me
Your bubble, is trouble
Your bubble, is trouble

Осторожнее Мороженое, nothing’s how it seems
If I don’t hear your voice today, you’ll bring me to my knees
Осторожнее Мороженое, I can’t take this any longer
That which doesn’t kill me, only makes me stronger
Something inside me says
This could go two ways
You can believe everything you read
Or take your chances and be freed
Осторожнее Мороженое, nothing’s how it seems
What happened to your honesty? The truth will make me bleed
Осторожнее Мороженое, coming apart at the seams
Everything that’s good for me will kill me in your dreams
But something inside me says
Tomorrow’s another day
You can go search for your Valhalla
But I’d rather live happy than live forever
Осторожнее Мороженое, nothing’s how it seems
The trouble with the world today is you can take it as you please
Осторожнее Мороженое, give me back my dreams
Coz you can’t have it both ways, it’s squeeze or be squeezed
Where is the answer?
If all The King’s horses and all The King's men
Where is the answer?
Can’t put the genie in the bottle again
Something about you
Makes me feel the fool
Trust me when I tell you to
Do as I say, not as I do
Осторожнее Мороженое, nothing’s how it seems
What happened to your honesty? The truth will make me bleed
Осторожнее Мороженое coming apart at the seams
Everything that’s good for me will kill me in your dreams
Осторожнее Мороженое, nothing’s how it seems
The trouble with the world today is you can take it as you please
Осторожнее Мороженое, give me back my dreams
Coz you can’t have it both ways, it’s squeeze or be squeezed
Oooh Oooh Oooh

I never thought you’d stick around this long
So many loose ends, too many missed connections
But here you are stubbornly going on about
Tomorrow and everything it may bring
When I wake up and here you are
I wish this would last forever
A lifetime isn’t enough for your pleasure
And I wish this would last forever
Coz I don’t ever want to say goodbye
Never wanna say goodbye
You left behind everything you know
Lost a few good people along the way
I wonder if you could ever really know
How much it means to me that you chose to stay
And when I wake up, here you are
I wish this would last forever
A lifetime isn’t enough for your pleasure
And I wish this would last forever
Coz I don’t ever want to say goodbye
If we started over I’d do everything the same
Coz you're in all the best memories I'll take to my grave
Everyday I wake up and here you are
Like a beautiful river inside my heart
I wish this would last forever
A lifetime isn’t enough for your pleasure
And I wish this would last forever
Coz I don’t ever want to say goodbye
I wish this would last forever
A lifetime isn’t enough for your pleasure
And I wish this would last forever
Coz I don’t ever want to say goodbye
Never want to say goodbye

Desperate
05:08

Life surrounds us with walls
My reflection is my enemy
Ready to break me when I fall
How can I put this subtly?
As desperately me, I’m being desperate with you
As desperately we, prepare only to lose
Why must we live so desperately?
Whiskey drowns our souls
And often makes a mess of me
Numbs my sorrows to the cold
Kiss me quick so breathlessly
As desperately me, I’m being desperate with you
As desperately we, prepare only to lose
Why must we live so desperately?
Why can’t we, live a little easily?
As desperately me, I’m being desperate with you
As desperately we, prepare only to lose
Why can’t we, live a little easy, baby?
Why must we live so desperately?
Life is not about your goals
It’s the pain you’ll take to reach them
Because nothing good consoles
Those who’re never beaten
As desperately me, I’m being desperate with you
As desperately we, prepare only to lose
Why must we live so desperately?
Why can’t we, live a little easily?
As desperately me, I’m being desperate with you
As desperately we, prepare only to lose
Why cant we, live a little easy, baby?
Why must we live so desperately?
Life surrounds us with walls
How can I put this subtly?

You threw in your lot this time
Trying to prove a point
You knew you crossed the line
The fact that didn’t spook you!
We watched you shooting down
Those who stood against you
So you could squeeze into your crown
To hell with love and virtue
You’ll never have it back again
The kiss of a love, the touch of a friend
There’s no way back from the day you said
“To hell with love and virtue”
No place ahead to turn around
Don’t wrestle with your thoughts
The road behind you has
Well and truly forked
This peaceful life we all hold dear
Shadowed in the wake of you
You couldn’t care if it disappears
To hell with your love and virtue
You know we always could have talked
About all the things that hurt you
But you just had to go
To hell with love and virtue
You’ll never have it back again
The kiss of a love, touch of a friend
There’s no way back from the day you said
“To hell with love and virtue”
I wonder?
I wonder?
You know we always could have talked
About all the things that hurt you
But you just had to go
To hell with love and virtue
You’ll never have it back again
The kiss of a love, touch of a friend
There’s no way back from the day you said
“To hell with love and virtue”

I wish I could reach you
Even though I know you’re close
I wish I could convince you
To follow your heart and not your ghosts
If you could believe in the things that I know
You'd see you've already got your happiness
Your heart is an angel’s
Your eyes hypnotise me
You’re so beautiful
I see you in all my dreams
If you could believe in the things that I know
You'd see you've already got your happiness
Your eyes are closed
Because your soul is trapped in a memory
But your heart is open
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
You struggle with your feelings
Because your world has been so cold
Trust me babe I’ve been there
‘Times it’s hard to feel love grow
Believe in the things that I know
You've already got your happiness
Your eyes are closed
Because your soul is trapped in a memory
But your heart is open
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
Your mind lets go
As your arms reach out to hold me
My heart is yours
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
Your lips are sealed around mine
Our hearts are dancing intertwined
Believe in the things that I know
You've already got your happiness
Your eyes are closed
Because your soul is trapped in a memory
But your heart is open
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
Whenever you touch me
I feel electric in my soul
I feel your heart beat
As your arms they pull me close
Believe in the things that I know
You've already found your happiness
Your eyes are closed
Because your soul is trapped in a memory
But your heart is open
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
Your mind lets go
As your arms reach out to hold me
My heart is yours
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
Your eyes are closed
Because your soul is trapped in a memory
But your heart is open
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred
Your mind lets go
As your arms reach out to hold me
My heart is yours
Because your love is reaching out to me
Undeterred

Time takes me from your shores
Because life takes its tolls in force
The price of success is written on your face
Fondness makes the absence grow stronger
Loving you makes missing you harder
Being without you is like torture I say
Technology can’t replace your touch
Pixelated tears get dubbed
Its been too long I need you in my arms
Fondness makes the absence grow stronger
Loving you makes missing you harder
Being without you is like torture I say
I’m coming home on the morning light
I’ll be exhausted by the time I arrive
It keeps me going just to see your eyes
Hope I don’t mess up your nine to five
Saying I love you is not enough
Telling you I’m sorry just wont cut it
Being so far away from you is like a prison for my soul
Fondness makes the absence grow stronger
Loving you makes missing you harder
Being without you is like torture I say
