Kilo 07:18
lyrics

I remember how the buildings looked in the night All the angles went all over the place Drew some lines on your motel face We took a cab to a restaurant Someone was playing the Spanish guitar Outside two guys were fighting We could hear them yell as we finished off a bottle of wine It keeps on going from the backstreets to the billboards and the signs It keeps on going from the sidewalks to the alleyways in our minds It keeps on going like a backbeat Like a dream within a dream It keeps on going through dark mirrors A copy of a copy we’ll never see I remember drawing lines with my eyes on the plain The days were getting shorter The air was getting cold I let my breath escape until I lost your face Those lines can disappear Those lines can always be erased I feel so anxious, I just can’t relax My animal instinct’s kicking in too fast The elevator blues got me on the run Still looking out from the glass to the sun Oh Portia Just give me a sign, make the lightning flash Just give me a break, give me a little more cash The sidewalk bends but it still doesn’t crack A knife to the front is worth two in the back Oh Portia

Still Point 03:22
lyrics
download
Waste time Feel all right Don’t want to waste time Just want to feel alive I thought it happened ah! way too fast I thought it happened for me way back there in the past You know I thought it had a human face But when I touched it I saw that it was not human or divine The center cannot hold We turn until we fold Masterfade Roll away the time Do I hear music up in the sky? Do I hear a counterpoint or maybe a lullaby? Or is it nothing and I call it melody? The still point of the still turning world Or the gyre that took the falcon for a whirl?— Tore its wings and said “The way down will get you high”

Lucky In Love 04:06
lyrics

Lucky in love, I was lucky in love I fell asleep with a little song inside my head I was swimming inside an ocean And the water held me closer than anyone I want you I want you swimming inside an ocean I want you to hold me closer I want you

Golden 04:12
lyrics

I fell in love with the idea of the Golden Age I felt good, I felt like finding a girl and using her I went out late and crushed my feet on the dance floor I felt the sweat drip softly from my shaking head I had a dream and all my friends were there It was a dream and all my friends were there They were on an airplane flying to New York I think it was a 747 And I was on my back lying in the grass Just watching them go I’ve seen the Golden Lady She told me she could take me there

Marquee Moon 05:34
lyrics

I remember how the darkness doubled I recall lightning struck itself I was listening to the rain I was hearing something else I spoke to a man down at the tracks I asked him how he don’t go mad He said “look here junior, don’t you be so happy And for heaven’s sake don’t you be so sad” Life in the hive puckered up my night The kiss of death, the embrace of life There I stand beneath the marquee moon Just waiting Well a Cadillac pulled out of the graveyard Pulled up to me, all they said was “get in” Then the Cadillac, it puttered back into the graveyard And me, well, I got out again
