I went upstate
Asleep at the wheel, yeah
Top of the range
Real leather feel, yeah
Now I'm safe and sound
In air conditioned bliss, bliss
My feet are not dictators
Thank God for ABS
'Cause where we are going
Is anyone's guess, yeah
Took the bait
So did you, yeah
Born again
To die again too, ooh
The sun shines behind the leaves
Behind the glass
Beyond me, yeah
I don't have time to wonder
I don't have time to rest
'Cause where we are going
Is anyone's guess, yeah
Anyone's guess, yeah
'Cause where we are going
Is anyone's guess, yeah
Anyone's guess, yeah

Himalayan
Himalayan, bigger than you or me
I'm just saying, it's un natural history
Put on your Bonnie and Clyde grin, your crackle and sin
Gonna hear the coin drop that's when it's gonna begin
Say that you know, the path that you're gonna walk to be free
Throw your hands up, kick back your heels and dance to the beat
I woke up, in the middle of the night
Started praying, just like a tribalite
and when you lick your lips and you're moving in fits
Gonna hear the coin drop that's when it will hit
Say that you know the path that you're gonna walk, to be free
Throw your hands up, kick back your heels and dance to the beat
Himalayan, Himalayan, Himalayan [x2]
Say that you know the path that you're gonna walk, to be free
Throw your hands up, kick back your heels and dance to the beat [x2]
I'm just saying, it's un natural history
Put on your Bonnie and Clyde grin, your crackle and sin
Gonna hear the coin drop that's when it's gonna begin
Say that you know, the path that you're gonna walk to be free
Throw your hands up, kick back your heels and dance to the beat
I woke up, in the middle of the night
Started praying, just like a tribalite
and when you lick your lips and you're moving in fits
Gonna hear the coin drop that's when it will hit
Say that you know the path that you're gonna walk, to be free
Throw your hands up, kick back your heels and dance to the beat
Himalayan, Himalayan, Himalayan [x2]
Say that you know the path that you're gonna walk, to be free
Throw your hands up, kick back your heels and dance to the beat [x2]

Hoochie Coochie
Whose arms do you go into?
Whose arms do you go into?
Whose arms?
What time are you hanging around?
Your face is all over the place

Trust you to be tripping out

Trust you, trust you, trust you
Hoochie coochie

What game are you playing now?

Trust you to be tripping out

Trust you, trust you, trust you

Cold Sweat
Like a cold cold sweat alright
I got the fever for you tonight
and I can't stop no, I won't stop,
How can I stop when nothing is enough
I got this feeling in my bones
something loving god only knows
and I can't sleep oh I won't sleep
How can I sleep when nothing is enough
So do it, what you waiting for?
surely enough to go on
You got me yearning, like never before
and I don't want to lose love
You got to live and let it knock you out
I haven't learnt so don't ask me what it's all about
I can't speak and I won't speak
How can I speak when nothing is enough
There's still a cold cold sweat alright
There's still a fever for you alright
and I can't stop, no I won't stop
How can I stop when nothing is enough
So do it what you waiting for
surely enough to go on
You got me yearning, like never before
and I don't want to lose love
I got the fever for you tonight
and I can't stop no, I won't stop,
How can I stop when nothing is enough
I got this feeling in my bones

and I can't sleep oh I won't sleep
How can I sleep when nothing is enough

Nightmares
I was afraid of coming undone
Being a burden, being a son
I was afraid of the look in my eye
The tears on your face in the desolate night
'Cause when you're afraid of everything
Everything is a start for nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Oh oh oh ooh
If I die tomorrow, would you be upset?
Or would you be the one coming to get me?!
Follow by the wish of never changing mood
Tell me it's alright
If come reason, if you could stay
To put up your faith in the palm of my hands
I will protect you, I will defend
So it never gets you ever again
Everything is a start for nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Oh oh oh ooh
If I die tomorrow, would you be upset?
Or would be the one coming to get me?!
Follow by the wish of never changing mood
Tell me it's alright!
Maybe I'm just dreaming
Maybe I was wrong,
Maybe I was right
'Cause I can't imagine distances in our faiths
Is there any?
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Nightmares, nightmares
Oh oh oh ooh
Being a burden, being a son
I was afraid of the look in my eye

Brothers And Sisters
I was born and raised
With a dozen other countries
You were better raised
By the morals of your tensions
You're living just to please
Dying to offend
But, however, much the time
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
I remember when
We were just little children
Started make it up
Little sparrows of a soul then
Keep your enemies closer than your friends
But, however, much the time
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
What's it doing to me?
Don't you understand?
Separated from the pack you ain't never going back
Now we all grew up
Some a little more than others
Have your father's sons
Have the daughters of your mothers
You think you're so special
If only to pretend
But, however, much the time
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
But, however, much the time
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
What's it doing to me?
Don't you understand?
Separated from the pack you ain't never going back
You ain't never going
What's it doing to me?
Don't you understand?
Separated from the pack you ain't never going back
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
But, however, much the time
We're our brothers and sisters in the end
With a dozen other countries

I Guess I Know You Fairly Well
If I tell you part of my story
Would you try to stay along?
Life's too short to worry and quarrel
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong!
I have struggled, I have been tired
I sometimes wonder if I'm even alone
Don't you worry, I will still love you
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
Stop been hurting!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working out!
If I've been arrow by arrow
Time by time you lose for me again,
But from the blue into the shallows
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
Stop been hurting!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working out!
So keep it working!
Stop been hurting!
So keep it working!
Oh God, we're hurting!
Would you try to stay along?
Life's too short to worry and quarrel
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong!
I have struggled, I have been tired
I sometimes wonder if I'm even alone
Don't you worry, I will still love you
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
Stop been hurting!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working out!
If I've been arrow by arrow
Time by time you lose for me again,
But from the blue into the shallows
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong
Whether you're right, or whether you're wrong!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working!
I guess I know you fairly well,
Stop been hurting!
I guess I know you fairly well,
So keep it working out!
So keep it working!
Stop been hurting!
So keep it working!
Oh God, we're hurting!

You Are All That I Am Not
How am I to be, all you are to me?
It could never be enough
Don't cry for tonight
Love will see you through alright
Time waits for you to stop
Yeah you are all that I am not
Lonely rivers flow
Where we'll never know
Set your beating heart free
With all your bridges burned
Tell me what you've learned
From here to God above
It's just love
Don't cry for tonight
Love will see you through alright
Time waits for you to stop
Yeah you are all that I am not
Don't cry for tonight

Yeah you are all that I am not

I Feel Like Ten Men Nine Dead And One Dying
Well, you hit me like a flood, hit me like a drug in the ocean
Give me four on the floor and six by the dozen
Be the life of the party cause everybody's dying to meet you
They say your body is a palace, but your mind is a ghetto
And she said stranger, stranger things oh, have happened to me
I feel like ten men
Nine dead and one dying!
Well, tonight I realized that it only takes a river to rouse her
When every night of the week is decorated in her honour
Wrapped around her finger, waiting for the riches to roll in
She's hiding 'round the edges, it's cold in the middle
And she said stranger, stranger things oh, have happened to me
I feel like ten men
Nine dead and one dying!
I feel like ten men
Nine dead and one dying!
Dying, dying, dying, dying, dying
Give me four on the floor and six by the dozen
Be the life of the party cause everybody's dying to meet you
They say your body is a palace, but your mind is a ghetto
And she said stranger, stranger things oh, have happened to me
I feel like ten men
Nine dead and one dying!
Well, tonight I realized that it only takes a river to rouse her

Wrapped around her finger, waiting for the riches to roll in

Toreador
Toreador
Hear the crowd they roar
For their Toreador
Savor temptation
Survive on a doubt
The closer you creep in
The more you want out
Slow like a glacier
You're cunning and cool, oh
Hook, line and sinker
Make your move
The swirl of life's got me covering my eyes
Still I wanted more
The fear of death's got me holding my breath
You're the one that I adore
You dreamt of the ending
Sharp as a dart
Flowing like wine
Straight from the heart
You tell me you're eager
Eager to know, oh
What will it feel like
When you go?
The swirl of life's got me covering my eyes
Still I wanted more
The fear of death's got me holding my breath
You're the one that I adore
Toreador
Tell me there is more
Than just a cloak and dagger storm
Hear the crowd, they roar
For their Toreador
The swirl of life's got me covering my eyes
Still I wanted more
The fear of death's got me holding my breath
Still I wanted more
The swirl of life's got me covering my eyes
Still I wanted more
The fear of death's got me holding my breath
You're the one that I adore
Hear the crowd they roar
For their Toreador
Savor temptation

Heavens Key
See the lightning, hear all the thunder
What you gonna do?
Feel the ones and zeros above you
Now you feeling blue
Watch the ships into the harbor
Now you're on your own
When they see your own reflection
But you'll never gonna
Take my heart or take my hand
And keep your conscience clear
Well, I got a feeling it's a burning desire
And I don't know what it means
So listen, are you looking in hell for heaven's key?
So listen, are you looking in hell for heaven's key?
All the friends that said they were with you
Seem to disappear
Even that most focused of feelings
Now it's not so clear
How can you just stand beside me
In my hour of need?
Well, the second cut is deeper
So you better let it
Take my heart or take my hand
And keep your conscience clear
Well, I got a feeling it's a burning desire
And I don't know what it means
So listen, are you looking in hell for heaven's key?
So listen, are you looking in hell for heaven?
Take my heart or take my hand

Get Yourself Together
Wake before the dawn
You will lie, but you're older
Neither right or wrong
Who is that in the mirror?
Ask my broken heart
For the damage
I just need your love
To make me feel brand new
Brand new, brand new
Come on, get yourself together
Hurry up, babe
Now or never
'Cause what we've got won't
Last forever
So come on, get yourself together
Struggle to keep up
In your head, from the water
We're letting down to luck
Or a thing, could it top you?
Ask my broken heart
For the damage
I just need your love
To make me feel brand new
Brand new, brand new
Come on, get yourself together
Hurry up, babe
Now or never
'Cause what we've got won't
Last forever
So come on, get yourself together
Come on, get yourself together
Hurry up, babe
Now or never
'Cause what we've got won't
Last forever
So come on, get yourself together
Wake before the dawn
You will lie, but you're older
You will lie, but you're older
Neither right or wrong
Who is that in the mirror?
Ask my broken heart
