All We Need
04:00
|
|||
In the heavens, no star is out of reach
In the oceans, no fathom is too deep
Forget the pressure, forget toxicity
For the pleasure of mixed company
All we need, all we need
All we need is a little faith in us, in us, in us, in us
All we need is a little faith in us, in us, in us, in us
All we need is us
And all we need is us
In the mountains, no cloud is out of reach
In the wreckage, no pain and suffering
Forget the fissures, forget industry
For the pleasure of puppet mastery
All we need, all we need
All we need is a little faith in us, in us, in us, in us
All we need is a little faith in us, in us, in us, in us
All we need is us
And all we need is us
All we need is a little faith in us, in us, in us, in us
All we need is a little faith in us, in us, in us, in us
All we need is us
All we need is us
All we need, all we need, all we need, all we need
All we need, all we need, all we need, all we need
All we need, all we need, all we need, all we need is us
And all we need is us

I just can’t believe it’s true, we’ve had it up to here
I just can’t believe it’s true, we’ve had it up to here
I just can’t believe it’s true, I just can’t believe it’s true
Can’t get thru the smoke and mirrors
So you say, everything ain’t easy
When you go the wrong way
So you say, it never meant anything
So you say, to give a shit is a shame
Cause it’s not a fair game
So you say, you’ll never say you’ll never say
I just can’t believe it’s true, we’ve had it up to here
I just can’t believe it’s true, we’ve had it up to here
I just can’t believe it’s true, I just can’t believe it’s true
Can’t get thru the smoke and mirrors
So you say, everyone is feeling
What it is you’re meaning
So you say, disintegrate anyway
So you say, it’s all about dreaming
And if there is a safe way
So you say, I’ll fast from my scheming
I just can’t believe it’s true, we’ve had it up to here
I just can’t believe it’s true, we’ve had it up to here
I just can’t believe it’s true, I just can’t believe it’s true
Can’t get thru the smoke and mirrors
I just can’t believe it’s true
I just can’t believe it’s true
I just can’t believe it’s true
I just can’t believe it’s true
I just can’t believe it’s true
I just can’t believe it’s true
Can't get thru the smoke and mirrors

What's the Matter?
04:20
|
|||
What’s the matter with people today
They only gather for chaos and hate
Who are the people with matter at play
Some say scientists and some say keepers of the faith
Just one in the same
Spooky action at a distance
And a leap of faith
To eulogize the baleful
To make an about face
To consider the tranquil
To consider the shape
What’s the energy for the future’s sake
Never mind the symmetry enjoy the escape
Can’t help figuring to wonder it out
There is nothing left, there’s nothing right to doubt
Just one in the same
Spooky action at a distance
And a leap of faith
To eulogize the baleful
To make an about face
To consider the tranquil
To consider the shape
Just one in the same
Spooky action at a distance
And a leap of faith
To eulogize the baleful
To make an about face
To consider the tranquil
To consider the shape

If You Must Know
04:39
|
|||
If you must know how much it is that I love you
Like a garden grows from the root to the stem and bloom
We might fall, we might want to quit
But despite it all, you two make it worth it
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
If you must know like a dream up and downstream
It would be Lucy to be more than the things she’s seen
We might fail, be all done with it
But despite it all, you two make it worth it
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
I love you
You love me
I love you
You love me
I love you
You love me
I love you two
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me
Come on baby, one more time
If you must know, just know, I love you like you love me

Let It Ride
03:41
|
|||
You flew away with me sky high at top speed
Who knew this fantasy could deny our wildest dreams
Let it ride, let it ride to a clearer view
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride to a brand new you
Never, never will you grow
Forever, see you at the show
Together for a moment we will know
For a moment we will know
Lay your money down pray to this thorny crown
Don’t detour, don’t delay (delay, delay) it’s what you got me for
It’s what you got me for
Let it ride, let it ride to a clearer view
Let it ride, let it ride, let it ride to a brand new you
Never, never will you grow
Forever, see you at the show
Together for a moment we will know
For a moment we will know
For a moment we will know
For a moment we will know

Word Got Out
04:20
|
|||
Rumor has it, rumor has it that they’ve done it again
To leave an enemy a friendly, friendly friend
To spin the maladies that never ever end
Humiliates realities we cling to defend
Rumor has it that we got the Bernin’ solution
It’s just another doomed populist revolution
Surprises us the same again and again
Surprises us the same again and again
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Gloom and havoc, gloom and havoc can I have it again?
To be as spastic, it’s fantastic to the bitter end
So hop on along and let’s go for a spin
Failed futures old men want you to believe in
Surprises us the same again and again
Surprises us the same again and again
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Surprises us the same again and again
Surprises us the same again and again
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
Word got out, word got out
That you got it all figured out
