Better Now
Yeah-yeah
Oh, I'm newly calibrated
Yeah-yeah
Oh, shiny and clean
Yeah-yeah
I'm your recent adaptation
Yeah-yeah
Time to redifine me
Let the word out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
Break the news out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
Yeah-yeah
I'm happy as Christmas
Yeah-yeah
All wrapped to be seen
Yeah-yeah
I'm your recent acquisition
Yeah-yeah
Time to celebrate me
Let the word out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
Break the news out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better
The world's done shakin'
The world's done shakin'
The world's done shakin' me down
The world's done shakin'
The world's done shakin'
The world's done shakin' me down
Let the word out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
Break the news out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
Let the word out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
Break the news out
I've got to get out
Whoa, I'm feeling better now
There's A Way
There's a way
To carry on
To push me out
And place me back where I belong
There's a way
To make anew
To resurrect
The wishes that I wish for you
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To recognize
All the pride that wraps around for my disguise
There's a way
To talk me through
To open up the silence that belongs to you
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
A thousand words that you can't steal or borrow
Don't give it away
I save'em up cause there's a ways to borrow
Come'on, Come'on
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
There's a way
To say what you say
Home
Poetry of politics and lost entities
Government is loneliness, on this we agree
High are the angels and low are the creeds
Love only burns when fueled by belief
Home, welcome home, take a little walk
Take a little walk right through my
Home, this is home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through my
Home
Climb up the mountains and then slide to the seas
Beauty adores us, on this we agree
God is a witness, and God is a tease
Pick up your faith, yeah everybody come with me
Home, welcome home, take a little walk
Take a little walk right through my
Home, this is home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through my
Home
Home...
Home, welcome home, take a little walk
Take a little walk right through my
Home, this is home
Take a little walk, take a little walk right through my
Home
How Do You Love?
There once was love thrown into your room
But you never knew
A calendar of days just for you
But you never knew, never knew no
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
There once were eyes that only saw you
But you never knew
A portrait of a flower in full bloom
But you never knew, never knew no
And the words that you fear will always be
The words you hear
This space where you've been living
Has gifts you've never given
That's the face you always show
Ask me for words of wisdom
Tell me of your condition
I don't know, I don't
I don't know
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
Him
Well I took a little right
Through the pouring rain
To think about the casualties
Of your extremes
'Cause what you said
Ain't what you do
You know you live by the words you choose
Was it him
Was it me
Were his lies easier than my truth to believe
Well I took a little walk
Through the driving rain
To catch my breath
From my your self-inflicted change
'Cause what you said
Ain't what you do
I feel the storm ...
Was it him
Was it me
Were his lies easier than my truth to believe
Was it him
Was it me
Were his lies easier than my truth to believe
And the rain calms
Just like a bed of nails
And the rain calms
Just like summer in hell
Was it him
Was it me
Were his lies easier than my truth to believe
Feels Like (It Feels All Right)
Feels like a new regime
All hail to the soul machine
Feels like what I taste
Always better than yesterday (alright)
Feels like sweet sixteen
All sugar and nicotine
Feels like ready go
Full throttle while the fluids flow
I said, it feels like, it feels like
It feels alright
Yeah, it feels like, it feels like
If feels alright
Feels like a Sunday dress
Stained with sin but always blessed
Feels like the great escape
I love you baby but life can't wait
I said, it feels like, it feels like
It feels alright
Yeah, it feels like, it feels like
If feels alright (x2)
Feels like what I want (x4)
Feels like a new regime
All hail to the soul machine
Feels like the great escape
I love you baby but life can't wait
It's alright
Perfect To Stay
She said good day boy, are you ready to shake
I said I love noise and this life that it makes
See I have a line though it's subject to change
I once had a thought but then I gave it away
Yeah sooner or later I'll be perfect to stay
She said good night boy, are you feeling alone
I said I love time but never ever this long
Like the sun surely loves it's newborn days yeah
Like all oceans love their waves I'm perfect to stay
Counting The Days
Hey baby are you listening?
I've battened all the hatches down
I've taken all of your prescriptions
But no remedy I've found
Counting the days
Yeah, until some freedom can scream my name
Counting the days
Yeah, until the gods break these chains
Hey baby are you watching?
I'm saddled in for your sideshow
I'm never one to become precious
'Cause life is so touch and go
Counting the days
Yeah, until some freedom can scream my name
Counting the days
Yeah, until the gods break these chains
Dig in, get in, dig in
What you're looking for
Dig in, get in, dig in
What you're searching for
Dig in, get in, dig in
Yeah, dig
Under Heaven's Skies
Whenever I taste honey from your lips
It's a moment of purpose only you can give
Whatever I hear, whatever I may see
Whatever my cause dear, I know you'll believe
'Cause you're beautiful my love
When I close my eyes
Yeah, you're beautiful my love
Under Heaven's skies
If ever you think careless is the night
I'll comfort you with silence, till the morning light
Wherever you turn, wherever you may roam
Whatever you conquer, I'll always be your home
'Cause you're beautiful my love
When I close my eyes
Yeah, you're beautiful my love
Under Heaven's skies
You fly me through your skies of harmony
Then you lay me down with words of honesty
Yeah, you're beautiful
You're beautiful here with me
General Attitude
Time you've had more than your share of mine
I'm a criminal with no crime
Sing like a bird that is now released
Like and angel with clip-on wings
I've nothing that's etched in stone
I'm a ready that's already gone
There's a joke, yeah there's a tease
There's a cause I do believe
But let it run now
Let it run after me
Low I can't live in a sinking hole
'Cause I'm as high as the grass will grow
Gone like a stage, with its curtain drawn
Like the last bus to Babylon
I can mumble and talk again
I'm a promise that's never been
There's a joke, yeah there's a tease
There's a cause I do believe
But let it run now
Let it run after me
Yeah, I'm coming round
This world loves me now
Feel the rhythm of change
Yeah, its laying it down
Satellite
Soon a man will kneel to pray
Soon the light will burn our shade
And with the sweet the bitter fades
So take my heart and take your place
Cause I will be your force
And I will be your right
And I will watch over you like a satellite
Soon reason will have rhyme
Soon wisdom will imply
And with courage doubt subsides
So take my heart and take my pride
Cause I will be your force
And I will be your right
And I will watch over you like a satellite
And I will be your sword
And I will be your might
And I will watch over you like a satellite
River will flow from scenes unknown
I'll guide you through by the love I'll show
And the stars will wish upon the night
That they could have a guiding satellite
(Solo)
And I will be your sword
And I will be your might
And I will watch over you like a satellite
And I will be your days
And I will be your nights
And I will watch over you just like a satellite
Just like a satellite
