Never Listen
When I try to talk to you
I try to talk to you
You never listen
And I cry in in my sleep
I cry in my sleep
I cry in my sleep at night
You
You don't ever listen
You
You just walk away
You
You don't have the time
You
You don't ever listen
You
You don't have the time
You
You just walk away
When I try to talk to you
I try to talk to you
You never listen
And I cry in my sleep
I cry in my sleep
I cry in my sleep at night
You
You don't ever listen
You
You don't even care

Shade
Forget about me
You'll grow older
And a hand will touch your shoulder
Turn around, no one's there
Don't be frightened, I'll play fair
The heat will rise, you'll awaken
Under cover, slightly shaken
A spirit kissed you-disbelieve
I'm you shade, now I Can't leave
Aren't you sorry
(I'm still here)
Don't you miss me
(I'm still here)
You'll be sorry
(I'm still here)
Don't you miss me
(I'm still here)
Try and shelve me
Turn and walk
You're the best
To hear you talk
Well I've got time
To wait for you
Haunting till my shade is true
Aren't you sorry
(I'm still here)
Don't you miss me
(I'm still here)
You'll be sorry
(I'm still here)
Don't you miss me
(I'm still here)
Aren't you sorry
(I'm still here)
Don't you miss me
(I'm still here)
You'll be sorry
(I'm still here)
Don't you miss me
(I'm still here)
(I'm always going to be one step behind you)
(You can't run away from me)
('Cause I'm still there waiting for you)

The Flow
Thoughts I used to have
Fade into the distance
As I speed along
Breaking air resistance
It's vast
It's exciting
It's perceptible
Going with the flow
Seeing where it takes me
My eyes are focused
My eyes move around
The scope
The disorder
The resolution
It's vast
It's exciting
It's perceptible
Thoughts I used to have
Flow into the future

Perfect Couple
On the dance floor twirl her
She's an idol pull her close
And dance together cheek to cheek
You seem to be the perfect couple
Funny how things end sometimes
Her eyes they never lie
In an evening gown across the table
Drinking bottles of champagne
You swear she said
"Moments like this can last forever"
Funny how things end sometimes you think
Her eyes they never lie
Detach yourself from all of this
What would you dream at night
What would you cry for in the day
On the dance floor look right through her
Doesn't matter anyway
She leaves you guessing in the dark
You seemed to be the perfect couple
Funny how things end sometimes
Her eyes they never lie
Detach yourself from all of this
What would you dream at night
What would you cry for in the day
You swear she said,
"Moments like this can last forever"
Funny how things end sometimes you think
Her eyes they never lie
It's safer in the dark
Than standing next to her
When things dissolve, you say
"Maybe she'll call me"
You seem to be the perfect couple
Funny how things end sometimes
Her eyes that never lie

DISTANCE
My thoughts and my actions
Are coming attractions
See the distance
And my startled reaction
Hanging on tight
I'm praying for light
I've gambled my future
I just hope it's alright
I want to touch you
I want to close the gap up he said
All I've ever had was
The barrier between us
I just keep balancing
I keep waking up in the dark
Knowing that closer
But wearing set precision
I'm done with dancing
Cause life is long
And that's such a list
So it sure is the small
Just have to do it now
I'm sending signals
But the people wrap their seeds and oh no
I do the crap they all
Seem to reflect
The dreams in my life
Are covered with strife
I feel the distance
And it's not very nice
Is this all you get?
Is there nothing more?
Standing in line
And I don't know what for
I do a ritual
Is what they seem so practical
Then all of that
They're after posting anything at all
I just get bell and bling
I tried to pull the edges closer
But they just move apart
They just move away from me
I would pay anything
To rock ensure of winning
Although it would help
To watch the ground rush up to meet me
I have a dosage of skin
Like I am inside out
I want the magic of those people
Who say no to me
I reach out my hands
I won't give up hope
They can't push me to
The end of my rope
They say there's one turn
But I'll have it twice
I feel the distance
And it's not very nice
Thoughts and my actions
Are coming attractions
See the distance
And my startled reaction
Dreams in my life
Are covered with strife
I feel the distance
And it's cut by a knife
Sometimes I disappear
And walk like I'm mechanical
There's too much room for me
So I'll use every trick I have
There must be some way
To stack the odds all in my favor
How long must I wait
For their communication?
Sometimes I disappear

I won't give up hope
They can't push me to
The end of my rope
They say there's one turn
But I'll have it twice
I feel the distance
And it's not very nice

CAPTIVE
There's blood on your lips
Now you're not moving
I didn't mean to hit
You just wouldn't be quiet
Oh, what have I done to you
Oh, what have I done to you
Oh, what have I done to you
Kept in my room
There you would pace, raging
Manacled angel
You'd turn away raging
Oh, what have I done to you
Oh, what have I done to you
Oh, what have I done to you
Just to look, just to look
(and never touch)
Just to look, just to look
(and never touch)
Just to look, just to look
(And never touch)
Just to look, just to look
Oh, what have I done to you
Oh, what have I done to you
Oh, what have I done to you

DISSOLVE
When we were dancing
The floor habitués
Would draw your eye and
They'd draw you away
All of the angles
That I thought I knew
Are no use to me
When it comes to you
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Now when I see you
You hang up the phone
And when I call you
You are not alone
Misunderstanding
Was with us from the start
In your theatrics
I just played a part
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Our dissolution
Came without a sound
The shock of losing
Has brought me to the ground
The words you told me
Were what I wanted to hear
My friends console me
But I just want you near
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Now late at night I
Still wait for your call
I can't believe that
It won't come at all
The shock of losing
Has brought me to the ground
Our dissolution
Came without a sound
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution
Dissolve, dissolution

SURVIVAL
Oh, there is no purpose
To this president's assurance
Of the pursuit of happiness
While the world is trembling and starving
Come, come give us your hand and strike down
Elements of world destruction
With mutual determination
We shall save the world
Then when we are almost free
We'll look around and we shall see
The present status of our nation
And the points we need to strengthen
Come, come give us your hands and strike down
Elements of world destruction
With mutual determination
We shall save the world
Survival of the species
Depends on evolution
When we are through here
Our children will find the next solution
Come, come give us your hands and strike down
Elements of world destruction
With mutual determination
We shall save the world

NOTHING TO SAY
You were always fighting me and now I find that I don't care
You've been so long destroying my mind that now I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
What went wrong is not unusual
It happens every day
And I'm not sorry, angry,
Or regretful at all
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
Except that
It could have been love
Or it might not have been
It isn't so mysterious,
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
Boy needs girl
Girl needs boy
This is the way
Life is handled
by the people living it
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way
What went wrong is not unusual
It happens every day
And I'm not sorry, angry, or regretful at all
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
Except that
It could have been love
Or it might not have been
It isn't so mysterious,
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
One more time you're calling me
And now you say you don't care
I tell you just to leave me alone
You say you don't care
Why do you call
Why do you call
Why do you call
Why do you call
What went wrong is not unusual
It happens every day
And I'm not sorry, angry, or regretful at all
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
I have nothing to say
Except that
It could have been love
Or it might not have been
It isn't so mysterious,
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It will happen again
It might have been love
Or it might not have been
It isn't so mysterious,
It will happen again
It might have been love
Or it might not have been
It isn't so mysterious,
It will happen again
