Reeve Carney - Boy Falls From The Sky

You can change your mind
But you cannot change your heart
Your heart knows what you're hiding
Your heart knows where you are

I'd be myself if I knew who I'd become
You don't have to fly too high
To get too close to the sun

See the boy fall from the sky

You will always be in front of me
Even as I disappear from view
For I have done not a single thing
Without the thought of you

But no, not here, not now, no way
I'm not ready to give up the fight
If I can use a single thread to cross the sky
Then why is the eye of the needle
Still your heart tonight

See how the boy falls from the sky

The city conducts a symphony
I'll search through the trash for a melody
That might lead us back to dignity
In this junkyard of humanity
To let you go without regret
I will forever hold you always in my heart instead
Over the screams and the siren's wail
The only thing not up for sale
Our love is like lights on a midnight train
Hearts like thunder with no sign of rain
Lightening splits the sky, kisses your face
Yours is the sacrifice, yours is the grace
I hear your voice inside my head
I wil listen to nobody, not to no one else
From the bridge where we both stood and stole the view
I saw the you in me and the me in you
These are the threads that bind
The ones we have to weave
They will hold us true, I believe
I believe
Believe, believe, believe, believe
Believe, believe, believe

Reeve Carney - Rise Above 1

[ Featuring Bono, The Edge ]

And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
But I can't
I can't

How long will it take
Before these feelings
Go away
How much longer do I wait
And are there any real answers
Anyway

Your silence in a crowded room
Louder than the loudest tune
I hang on every word

And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
But I can't
I can't

I miss you in everything
I was too fast traveling
To take you in
I know, silence is no crime
Just wish I could hear you fill it up

One more time

Yes, I know what you'd say to me
Exactly what you said to me
I Still hang on every word

And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
Yourself

In a time of treason
Is there time for trust
Where there's no them
Only us
Is there time for reason?
Has your heart had enough
Is it time to let go
And rise above?

And you said rise above
Open your eyes to LOVE
And you said rise above
Yourself

Bono - Picture This

[ Featuring The Edge ]

Picture this
Open the iris, open it up wide
The world changes shape
With the color of your eyes

Picture this
You are already where you wanna be
Now close your eyes
What does it look like

Picture this
The world is spinning on a tiny pin
Nobody knows the danger we're in

On this sunny day
Let your imagination run away
On this sunny day
Sunny days
See the future through the haze

Picture this
I wanna believe you and I'm gonna try
But I find it hard to see me
Through your eyes

Picture us
Realize this is a dizzy high
And we could fall and fall and fall and fall

On this sunny day
Let your imagination run away
On this sunny day
Sunny days
See the future through the haze

Love, is this love

Just crimes, peace wars, true lies.
I can see a noble shame.
I can see a living death.
I can see a healing pain, a pure decay, a helping hurt, a freeing jail.

On this sunny day
On this sunny day
On this sunny day
Hate, war, hurt, shame, death, pain
Hate, war, hurt, shame, death, pain
On this sunny day
Hate, war, hurt, shame, death, pain
Hate, war, hurt, shame, death, pain
Hate, war, hurt, shame, death, pain
Hate, war, hurt, shame, death, pain

Reeve Carney - I Just Cant Walk Away / Say It Now

Say it now, say it now
Explain to me
Why this happens to me every time
Give me any kind of sign
'Cause I just can't walk away

You wait
I won't
I leave
I don't
I memorize what I have to say
But he doesn't say it anyway

Say it now, say it now
Explain to me
Why this happens to me every time
Give me a clue or tell me why
I just can't walk away

Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away

Needing, aching, lying awake
In a room in my heart
A heartbeat away
Yet we're miles apart

You know that love can't live
Without honesty
But there are dangers in the daylight
And the shadows with me

Say it now, I wish I could say it now
Say to me the words I need to hear
Why you just don't disappear
And why I just can't walk way

Say it now, say it now
Say to me the simple words I fear
I know why I'm here
'Cause I just can't walk away

Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away
Walk, walk away

Reeve Carney - Bouncing Off The Walls

Someone else has woken up inside of me
Something has just turned on a light in me
I feel a force flow trough every artery now

I can't get down, I woke up one the roof again
Round and round, spinning on the spot again
I can't explain the who, the where, the why
Or the when, how

And I feel it in my veins
It's a feeling I can't tame
Can anyone please explain
Why, why, why

Why I'm bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls

A sun spot, I'm atomic energy
The atom split but left the best part of me
It's not static just electricity
Wow, wow, wow, wow

Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls

Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Oh
Oh

And I feel it in my soul
What I need to control
And I feel it in my bones
Let's rock and roll
Roll, roll, roll, roll

Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls
Bouncing off the walls

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, alright

Patrick Page - Pull The Trigger

Spider-Man, Spider-Man
Enhanced genetics
Spider-Man
Super-human kinetics
Spider-Man
Muscle augmentation
And look at that, web bio-generation
This, this looks like my work
It's getting out
Your life's work, your precious research
Your secrets
Getting sold, getting bought
It isn't possible, is it
It's not, or is it

Maybe it was Kassidy
You relied on loyalty
All your staff, where did they go
And what did they take
And what did they know
Our funding dried up
They weren't getting paid
How's it feel to be betrayed
They're leaving like rats from a sinking ship
You're losing control, you're letting it slip

Time to get it
You've been stabbed in the back
Are you gonna roll over, play dead
Or attack
Competition, I don't have any

Wake up son
Someone's cheating you
You do have competition and they're beating you
So fight back, what
Are you just gonna wait
It's an arms race, boy
You can't hesitate
We want new men
A new breed of Marines
Not human, we want fighting machines
A new species, one that's harder to kill
And what if I won't
We'll get someone who will

Don't just think of you
Think of God and country
Join the proud and few who know best for their country
Get some patriotic pride or get on to the other side

How do we win, by living in fear
How do we win, get the enemy clear
How do we win, by saying it's done in retaliation
How do we win, by clearing them out
How do we win, by murdering doubt
How do we win, 'cause we're in the right
Get in line or say goodnight

Don't just think of you
Think of God and country
Join the proud and few who know best for their country
Get some patriotic pride or get on to the other side

So deliver
I ain't working for you
We want bigger
That ain't something I do
Pull the trigger
Start being a man
Take care of real business or get off the can
Start making and you'll be in control
Start taking, you wanna suck out my soul
Get funded or your baby won't live
I'm gonna say no
You mean affirmative
Yes sir hut hut
Yes sir hut hut
Yes sir hut hut
Yes sir hut hut
Hut two three
Hut hut hut hut
Hut hut hut two three
Yes sir hut hut hut hut
Yes sir hut hut hut two three
Yes sir hut hut hut hut
Hut hut hut two three

Reeve Carney - No More

(Peter)

Don't talk
Just walk

Going nuts
Hate my guts

Get good grades
Another shove

Stop being a loser
Stop being unloved

And why do I need these stupid glasses
I'd give my life to be

Anyone but me (yeah)
Anyone but me

I wanna be
Anyone but me (yeah)

(Mary Jane)

This isn't home just a house
Broken door broken glass

Dad'll yell
Tune him out

He's drunk by now
He has to shout

Keep on walking
Just ignore

Just get to your room
And shut the door

Let me disappear
Or just be

Anywhere but here (yeah)
Anywhere but here

I wanna be

(Peter)

Everyday it's like a war and I'm losing it
I'm taking hits from every side, every side that there is

(Mary Jane)

Evryday I feel the walls are closing in
When can I begin?

To get myself right out of this place

(Peter and Mary Jane)

Anyone but me (I count the class as it grows)
Anywhere but here (I go to sleep in my clothes)

The shoes don't fit
Not am not what I am told (where do I wake?)
Not am not what I've been sold (what do I take?)

I'm at the point of possibility (Who will I find?)
I can almost answer famility (what answers fine, when is my time?)
Not am not what I've been wrong (Is it now?)

(Peter and Mary Jane)

And I can see an open door
And I can't live like this no more

I can't live like this no more
I can't live like this no more

No no no no no no no no no no more

Jennifer Damiano - If The World Should End

Don't think about tomorrow
We've only got today
There's nothing that I want from you
Not a word you have to say
You are all I need
And all I can defend
All I need to hold on to
If the world should end

In my imagination
I could not have made this up
In a world stranger than fiction
Ours is no fictional love
I can see the you
Under your second skin
I can feel your hear beat quicken
Quicken and then slow
There's nothing else I need to know
And there's nothing you need to pretend
If the world should end

And the sky tonight is luminous
For all the wrong reasons
And every doorway is hiding something
And if this world should all
Come crashing down
I wouldn't care at all

And if there's no tomorrow
I'll have today again
There's no time for sorrow
When there's no such thing as time
And if the darkness will descend
Don't need a savior or a friend
I can say I've really loved
If the world should end

The Edge - Sinistereo

Now come thoughts that you shall not banish
Secret fears, visions never to vanish
Crawling shapes now come writhing out
To cast their shadows over this human rout

You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire

Breath of our breath with no blood or bone
Never grows weary, never grows old
Mutters and mumbles in infinite ways
Ever the tyrant to the willing slaves

You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire

Much of madness and more of sin
No government of this vast, formless thing

You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire
You set yourself on fire

Patrick Page - A Freak Like Me Needs Company

If you're looking for a night out on the town
You just found me
(A freak like me needs company)
I'm a sixty five million dollar circus tragedy
(A freak like me needs company)

I'm not rolling, baby
Rolling in the green but I'm you need
(A freak)
A freak

I'm the new Coney Island
And all the rides are open and free on mee
(A freak like me needs company)

All the weirdos in the world are here right now
In New York city
All the braves and boys and girls are dressed to kill
Without pity

All the weirdos from out of town
And all the freaks always around
All the weirdos in the world are
Here in New York city
Here in New York city

I got a crew of party animal mutants by my side
(A freak like me needs company)
Demon hairdo, evil dresses, who just won't be denied
(A freak like me needs company)

The crossroads of the world does need a little tweak
From a freak
I said goodbye to my straight life 'cause I, I'm a freak
(A freak like me needs company)

All the weirdos in the world are here right now
In New York city
All the braves and boys and girls [incomprehensible]
Show no pity

All the weirdos from out of town
And all the freaks always around
All the weirdos in the world are
Here in New York city
Here in New York city

Oh yeah
That's the boys
And the ladies sing
La la la...

Reeve Carney, T.V. Carpio and Jennifer Damiano - Rise Above 2

[ Featuring T.V. Carpio, Jennifer Damiano ]

When the ones who run the firehouse
Are the ones who start the fire
And the lawless make the laws
And every preacher is a liar
And the ones who damn the innocent
Well they own the nightly news and front page

An old man said to me
It's not who but what you know
And knowledge isn't wisdom without control
Better still to be the changes
That you want to see
But they come slow, I know

And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
I can't, I can't

For every heart that bleeds
Will color your world red
And the sorrow in the night
Will be the blue you cannot shed
But your strength will be a vision
Beyond visibility
And the gift you have within
Will give you new eyes to see

That you can rise above
Swing through the skies above
And you shall rise above
Yourself

Know that I'll be watching
Know that I'll be waiting
Standing on the precipice
I can soar away from this

And you can rise above
Free your soul
Open your eyes up
Rise above yourself and take control
And you can rise above
The need to love
Yourself
To release yourself and rise above it all

And you can rise above
I will be there
Open your eyes up
You were never alone
And you can rise above
Inside your dreams
Yourself
I've been watching and waiting for you

And you can rise above
Open your eyes to love
And you can rise above
Yourself

And every heart that bleeds
Will color your world red
And the sorrow in the night
Will be the blue you cannot shed
And your strength will be a vision
Beyond visibility
And the gift you have before you
Will give you new eyes to see

TV Carpio - Turn Off The Dark

Between regret and despair
Between faith and fear
Between longing and necessity
In the shadow lands
In the shadow lands

Turn off the dark
Turn off the dark

Between the looking and the seeing
Between the hurting and the weeping
Between the waking and the sleeping
Are you sleeping

Turn off the dark
Turn off the dark
Turn off the dark
I've been waiting
I've been waiting

I am the queen of dreams
Banished to a shadow prison
But I've watched and waited
As your powers have risen
And now my loneliness can be undone
For the fates have delivered you
My one
With me alone you have nothing to hide
Confide in me
Inside of me the universe awaits
Unwind, we'll eclipse this mortal mind
The gift you've be given binds you to me
With spider silk threads across the galaxy

Back to: Spider-Man


Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is a musical with music and lyrics by Bono and the Edge and a book by Julie Taymor, Glen Berger, and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa. Based on the Marvel Comics character Spider-Man, the story incorporates elements of the 2002 film Spider-Man, the 2004 film Spider-Man 2 and the Greek myth of Arachne. It tells Spider-Man's origin story, his romance with Mary Jane Watson, and his battles with the Green Goblin. It includes highly technical stunts, such as aerial combat scenes and actors swinging from "webs".

The Broadway production was notorious for its many troubles. Several actors were injured performing stunts and the opening night was repeatedly delayed, causing some critics to review the "unfinished" production in protest. Following negative reviews, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark suspended performances for a month to retool the show. Aguirre-Sacasa, a longtime Spider-Man comics writer, was brought in to revise the story and book. The director, Julie Taymor, whose vision had driven the concept of the musical, was replaced by the creative consultant Philip William McKinley. By the time Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark officially opened on June 14, 2011, it had set the record for the longest preview period in Broadway history, with 182 performances.

Critical reception of the opening was better than for the previews, but mixed, with praise for the visual effects but little enthusiasm for the book and score. Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is the most expensive Broadway production in history, with a budget of $75 million.

In the week ending January 1, 2012, it held the box office record for Broadway sales in one week, taking in $2.941 million over nine performances, until it was beaten by Wicked at the end of the year, with $2.947 million. The production closed on January 4, 2014, at a massive financial loss.
Genre(s): Soundtrack, musical
Length: 5100
