Lyrics

1. CRY

It's difficult to love you when you do the things you do
Time and time again
And when I try to turn it off
You turn from smooth, you play it rough
Once again
Pride that pulls me into this ocean subsides again
So high and so dry with these bitter emotional lies again

You make me cry
you make me cry again
You make me cry
And the tears roll by again

Saturday’s the same old story
Sunday mornings wounded glory
Repeats again
And everyday a dream that’s born is countered by a love that’s torn
Deep again
Pride that pulls me into this ocean subsides again
So high and so dry with these bitter emotional lies again

You make me cry,
You make me cry again
And You make me cry
And the tears roll by again
You make me cry
you make me cry again
You make me cry
And you make me cry
You make me cry again
and you make me cry
The tears roll by again
And you make me cry
You make me cry again
And you make me cry
And the tears roll by again
You make me cry you make me cry
You make me cry you make me cry
You make me cry


2. SPACEFACE

She don't need no rocket ship, rocket ship, rocket ship
Just close her eyes and takes a trip
Baby's big on aviation, aviation, aviation
Baby loves a levitation, levitation

Yes she’s a spaceface going round
She’s never coming down, coming down, coming down
My little spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, coming down
Never coming down
Never coming down, coming down coming down

Baby's talking to the stars
Ain’t got time for idle wars, space, space, space
And I don't worry anyway
As long as I know she’s ok, she’s ok

Yes she’s a spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, coming down
My little spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, coming down coming down
She’s a spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, coming down
My little spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, coming down coming down
Never coming down, coming down

Don’t know what you see
I'll be there if you wait for me
I will soon be home
I'll be there if you're not alone
Spaceface
My little spaceface
Spaceface
Never falling down
Never falling down

She’s a spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, never coming down
My little spaceface floating round
She’s never coming down, never coming down
Never coming down
Never coming down
Never coming down
She never coming down
Never coming down


3. NEW SUNSHINE MORNING

I tried to write this song
I tried to memorize
Such a long time ago
More than I realize
And are you bitter still
Did we not pay the price once or twice
Try to forgive me now please
Try to forget about all those lies

New sunshine morning
Blackens up my eyes
Takes me in its warmness
And put me to a side
New sunshine morning
Blackens up my eyes

Takes me in its warmness
And put me to a side
Much of the story isnt told
Can you sympathize
Seems like a lifetime ago
You tried to rid my soul
I tried to cheat on life
You tried to kill me so
Only a moment I realize
New sunshine morning
Opens up my day
Carry carry me homeward
Into another place

New sunshine morning
Opens my eyes
Carries carries me onward
Into a new sunrise
New sunshine morning
New sunshine morning


4. ONE STEP CLOSER

Theres no other way
In the multitude
Population, neighborhood
I look for you
Do you look for me
It's the only way you're gonna
Get topography, typography, up off the feet
Gotta settle down and watch the dust
Gonna read the book all the rules that must
Sets the time to set the pace
You took me closer

One step closer to that place
You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
It's better now than ever
Now I know you'll stay
And another way

It's a different world
Theres a shining light
And a darkened world
And it waited takes a path
To a different place, different time
Different vibe
You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
It's better now than ever
Now I know you're here

You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
Much better now than ever
And now I know you'll stay

Found another way, another added trip/attitude
Theres a population, in the neighborhood
I'm lookin for you
You look for me
It's the only way to get
To where we want to be

You take me one step closer
And now I know we're there
Much better now than ever
And now I know you'll stay
You're taking me one step closer
And now I know we're there
It's better now than ever
And now I know you'll stay with me
You're taking me one step closer
And now I know you're there with me
Much better now than ever
And now I know you're here


5. FACE IN THE SUN

It's ok to be lonely
It's ok, still waiting for
Well it's ok to feel you're the only
Like a loaded gun just bound to explode
Just like the story goes
If you been raised
To believe in your soul
I'm sure you'll find your face

Face in the sun
Face in the sun
Face in the sun

Well it's ok to be loved with
The way the sun shines above your face
Well it's ok if you've had enough of this
A lack of light been around for days
Inside thinking of sunsets
Leaving behind
I hope I find my face

Face in the sun
Face in the sun
Face in the sun
Face in the sun
Face in the sun
Face in the sun
Face in the sun

I hope you find it


6. DISCONNECTED

Sometime I can see the world
By staring through your dark and misty eyes
I dont want to hear the words
Or anything you know you cant deny

Everytime I feel myself rejected
Disconnected, from everything thats real
Everybody needs to feel respected
Not disconnected
Only in my dreams I feel protected
This is reflected in all that I believe

Everybody needs to feel respected
Not disconnected
I dont want to hear the sound
Of your wide world when it comes crashing down
I can only help you if you're sure
You want to keep me hangin' round
I will only hear the sound
Of your wide world when it comes crashing down
I can only help you
If you're sure you want to keep me hangin' round
Only in my dreams I feel protected
This is reflected in all that I believe

Everybody needs to feel respected
Not disconnected
Everytime I feel myself rejected
Disconnected, from everythings that real
Everybody needs to feel respected
Not disconnected
Only in my dreams I feel protected
This is reflected in all that I believe

Everybody needs to feel respected
Not disconnected
Everytime I feel myself rejected
Disconnected, from everythings that real
Everybody needs to feel respected
Not disconnected


7. LAZY LATELY

Made them a play
Laid by the sea
A lifetime of promises
Translated to me
It's been hard, hard, hard
It's been so hard
Easy to place easy to fake
When I don't know about
You know you'll be strong
Shes far too young
If you got something to say
It's easy to know
That you'll find me awake
Leave me alone
Heat of a gun
Leads me to know, you've been

Lazy lately
Lazily
Lazy lately
Lazily

Laid by the plain
Raised by the sea
Feels like a hologram, a halo over me
It's been high, high high
Getting oh so high
Raised by love
Faced by the sea
A scene all alone
So I know why you come
It's been high, high
Getting oh so high
If you got something to say
It's easy to know that
You'll find me awake
Leave me alone
The heat of a gun
Leads me to know, you've been

Lazy lately
Lazily

If you got something to say
See me alone
You can find me awake
Leave me alone
The heat of a gun
Leads me to know, you've been

Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily
If you got something to say
Lazy lately
Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily
Lazy lately, lazily

8. SUGAR

Shout, shout aloud
I still can't get enough
Lover, I got sugar on the brain
These sun sets so fine, drink the heavy wine
Lover never did the sugar thing
So shout it out
Tell me it now
I need to know you wanna do those things
Hope you can stay on
Hope you lead me on
Hope we can produce that special thing
Take me away from this place
Take me up into the space
Moonshine, sunshine

Brother I got sugar on the brain
Shout, shout aloud
I still can't get enough

I wonder what relieves me from this pain
Shine, shine your love
I hope you lead me on
Lover, we got sugar on the brain
The sun sets so fine,
If you drink your heavy wine
Lover never did the sugar thing
Take me away from this place
Take me up into the space

Sugar
It tastes like sugar
Moonshine, sunshine
Any place you want count me in
Moonshine, anytime
Lover I got you, come here

It tastes like sugar
It tastes like sugar
It tastes like sugar
It tastes like sugar
It tastes like sugar
Anytime, anyplace


9. SLEEPING GIRL

From without, from a child
In this location, the forces conspire
Vigilant fire, expectation

Sleeping girl, I wish you could tell
This violation
Sleeping girl, I want you to smile

Confirmation
Moment of truth
Know what she says
I can’t take it
I wanted the truth
But I know I can play, this location

Sleeping girl, you know her so well
In
Sleeping girl, I want to you tell me
Conversation
Sleeping girl, you know that you will
Communication
Sleeping girl, I want you to smile
Confirmation
Sleeping girl, you know her so well
In
Sleeping girl, I want you tell me
Communication
Sleeping girl, you know that you will
Vindication
Sleeping girl, I want you smile
Confirmation


10. CRY AGAIN

It's difficult to love you
When you do the things you do
Time and time again
And when I try to play it wrong
You turn from smooth
You play it rough once again

You make me cry
You make me cry again
You make me cry
You make me cry again
You make me cry
You make me cry

Saturday, same old story
Sunday mornings wounded glory repeats again
And every day a dream is born
Is counted by a love that’s torn, deep again

You make me cry
You make me cry again
And the tears roll by
You make me cry again
You make me cry
And you make me cry
You make me cry
You make me cry again

That turns me into this ocean
Subsides again
So high and so dry
With this bitter emotion lies again

You make me cry
You make me cry
And you make me cry
Stop making me cry
Stop making me cry
And you make me cry
You make me cry


11. SLAVE NATION

My allegation
It's alright
Slave nation
Alright
Want to tell ya
All is gone
You're a slave nation

Right or wrong

Take a moment to tell
Slave nation
It's alright
You're a slave nation
It's cool
It's fine

Slave nation
Alright
Tell
Tell
Tell me not to tell
Wanna tell

Slave nation
Slave nation
Slave nation
Slave nation
It's alright
Isolation
Right
It's alright
It's alright
It's alright
