1.
I’m on your side / You know me too well / A holy voice / The prodigal comes back stunning / I’m on your side / It’s written in rust / To which you would run counter to benefiting us / I will cross the radar / Control the air / It’ll take me down / Ashes never found / Cause I’m on your side / Unfamiliar sound / A shifting of tides / A paradise / The prodigal comes back stunning / You and I / A luminous cave / A thousand years - a thousand ways to let it fade away / Like throwing matches through the air / It’ll burn me down / Ashes never found / Cause I’m your side / I will cross the radar / Control the air / It’ll take me down / Ashes never found / Like throwing matches through the air / It’ll burn me down / Ashes never found / Cause I’m your side
2.
We were made not aware of your presence / We were made not aware of your kind / Still, the perfect equal grows on you / Like a stinging hand that claws to familiarize / I understand your meaning within its disarray / November sweats her beads of death / She will visit while we’re away / Keep your calm / Knowing what’s right to say, shake the hand that shook the world / Shine a light from your shores / Keep your calm, senator / We are considered lucky, lifted and swept away / Save me, save men – no worries… not when a perfect equal matches sin for sin / Roll up closer / Visit from miles away / November sweats her beads of death / (Should have seen your face!) / Keep your calm / Knowing what’s right to say, shake the hand that shook the world / Shine a light from your shores / Keep your calm / Shine a light from your shores / Keep your calm, senator / Senator / Shine a light from your shores / Keep your calm, senator / Shine a light from your shores / Keep your calm, senator
3.
You got a difficult heart / You’re content with a typical mind / You’re drowning in a storm – A victim’s love from a rain unkind / Like a hawk in the air; like a message on the ground / Like the greed of a child who silences every sound / Take in our hearts (4x) / You’ll never see me unkind; do no favor to your will / Recount myths of our time whose silence is buried still / Well just because we’re in your servitude doesn’t mean we’re left untouched! / We too were overtaken! (Anyway, it doesn’t matter much…) / Take in our hearts (4x) / Take in our hearts (4x)
4.
A cool hand shelters the sun / She don’t want to see it go down / The light is half strange - rides the tide of the same vein / It keeps these hills below / The gossamers grey and glow / It’s not what we thought – to find out who’s real and who’s not / Whatever. Whatever, she’s gone / And it makes a case for the way we’ve never belonged / Yeah it makes a case for the way we’ve never belonged / Let’s not be anything to anyone / Let’s not be anything to anyone / I’m out to ruin your love from the milk-white cliffs above / The light is half strange / Rising tide of the same vein / But whatever. Whatever, she’s gone / And it makes a case for the way we’ve never belonged / With drama donned, her epicenter virtue looks a different way / Oh, I feel that we’re the gentlest touch, and I can’t believe the words are coming out of your mouth. But it makes no difference (hardly makes a difference) what you’ll say. She’ll take no love from anyone making light of her virtue. / Let’s not be anything to anyone (4x)
5.
Nearer. Phasing out trust / Never living kindness / Fading far and away / City to city, hand within hand, without a view / Won’t let a life without you bring me down / Bring me down / Glowing plain and foreign, Our lives – quaint and broken / Fading far and away / City to city, hand within hand, without a view / Won’t let a life without you bring me down / Bring me down / Lover, judge yourself not harshly / Lover, don’t work yourself away / When no one comes out to greet you, I’ll hold your champion hands / I’ll hold your champion hands (4x) / Won’t let a life without you bring me down (2x) / Bring me down (3x)
