1604 03:28
supernova, come, i’ll show ya, you can’t be the hero. 1604, thirteen’s my door did someone call a hero? chorus: it’s the age to try, and they will break you by holding on to your echos as you witness it you may throw your fits, but sometimes it’s best just to let go say your prayers now, pressure’s high now, is this thing even working? counting my stars, lucky they are, but i’m the one who is working. chorus ////
2.
chorus everyone was dancing to the sound of the beat, the melody falling madly in love. and the lights, they move, perpetuate the groove, you know we love like fire, and you can do it, too! night was young and hopping hot, the downtown clock read 10:00, all the hip kids ready to find a spot for the night with their own kind. i know it’s hard to take this life, sell your soul just to survive, and so we meet on the dance floor to reignite what we had before. chorus the bar was packed end to end, ain’t no way that you’ll get in the place to be, one with the line where peace is the song and love is the rhyme. we’re holding out for something more: a throwback to the 54 a taste of what we think is free-- the movement comes naturally. chorus ////

Sink or Swim 02:41
send me out to the rain so i can see things you only see when you’re clean. shake me off from my solid ground it’s all adventure, till the moment you drown. to the bone i’m soaking wet, but i know, sink or swim, it’s a guaranteed way to grow. catch the moon hold on tight to her tides then find your own way in the morning when she hides. chorus sink or swim but i choose to fly; life ain’t for just getting by. if you find your soul ain’t feeling so free take your insides and set them out to the sea ocean waves used to scare me blind now i kiss them; all i needed was time. chorus ////

Vegas 02:55
feeling like a liar as the lights on fire luminate your shadowy holes. and though you built them up just to cover all the brush all so you could hunt for gold, you see them from your room, it’s an honesty that looms out where they meet the sky. if nature ran her course from inside a trojan horse, it means a fresh start for you and i. chorus are you scared of, i ask you in love, of what you were meant to be? now you’re chained down in your man made town when all you wanted was to be free. x2 ////
5.
happy, sandy baby. like you best when we’re wavy. we’re building fires in top secret places, and testing out tires on rocky roads. everyone says “you can’t ever make it,” but it seems that we’re never going home! cramming in cars, sleep less than we should. we’ve come so far, and i’m just glad, all you can hope is for all of your good to scare away your big, ugly bad. we’re just too close to give it up now. it’s too much we know, and i’m just thrilled. and when you hear that big ugly growl, we’re taking heads of the bad vibes we’ve killed!! ahhhhhh ahhhh, you’re my sandy babe. ////
6.
though i try my mind gets hazy spend my evenings potting daisies, but i love you more than anything. save me now i fear i’m falling i can hear my history calling but my future’s up for anything. chorus: i knew you’d keep running from me. (run, running) i knew you’d keep running from me. (run, running) keep your heart close when you’re thinking eyes wide open never blinking cause you don’t want to miss anything. chorus x2 little baby seems that maybe you are growing old. standing up there with your blue hair but somehow i know. chorus x2 ////
7.
another ride, another love-- take our time, we’ll take it slow. seems like the one, she is my one, from the start our eyes would meet. never mind the lower times; lift it up to a better place. we know just how to make it strange; we know just how to make it great. it seemed like the world had froze when our eyes, they met in the middle of the room. this could be the moment of my life where nothing else matters but what my eyes found. i dreamed this dream would never end. x6 ////
8.
Swim or Sink 02:22
sink or swim, but i choose to fly life ain’t for just getting by. just getting by... ////
9.
let’s see how far we can go running down the mountain. juggling tiny white moths, floating on a flat rock. chorus: it’s tough to talk me down, the world you see is what you believe. it’s tough to talk me down from where i am and what i find. dodging those rattlesnakes can change a man’s perspective. count on each other so we shift as a collective. chorus stay alive! x4 ////
10.
Velveteen 04:02
i remember it so clearly biting in the juicy peaches of my dreams, or of a lover, so it seems. and you know it’s fleeting, the memories that i’m meeting in the dark and foggy light after a frosty loveless night. now it’s just a head trip-- the sweet taste on my two lips and the juices from within running down my chin. and my hands are sticky after peaches picked me and left me dreaming of how i’m deliriously in love. like a child i’m happy; i’ve met you and you made me the person who i was all along and it’s because way down underneath this sweet and velveteen peach never was so bad. ////
11.
Letters 02:38
i received a call today from my friend, “brother you see i’ve hit the end.” i know i’ll hear this someday; please, someday come soon. chorus: take a moment now, never did we notice, how a drug instills forgotten moment’s focus. make a note, how’s it feel? you’re getting old. redirection is a tool that works two ways; pick a scene that you would like to live fully. living as a human being, singing letters to the world. i received a call today from my friend, “oh, you know, it’s been a tough one.” too much time to think, too many things in your head i think i need a break from it all. chorus hey! we’re singing letters to the world. keep, keep your head up tonight. rain, this rain will stop for you. ////
12.
it’s morning and the ground’s wet; my world is just waking up. i wish that i could see it, but my eyes are still tightly shut. chorus time owes you nothing, and your dreams are just that if that’s all you’ll let them be. the sun is warming up now, even the coldest of my young heart. the world is full of beauty, and even i can be a part. chorus x2 ////
13.
be the human you always thought you’d be. x8
