1. Travel By Telephone


Must have been a mistake
While you make things hard for me
Wouldn’t hurt you at all if I didn’t have to
Give in it’s our first fight
Now that I see this side
I want to more than I did before
This night has opened my eyes
I know you, hope I do now
Communication’s down
I know you, hope I do now
We come closer
Temptations, they crumble by your side
You say you wouldn’t hurt me at all
Can’t be sure that you mean it
If it’s worth holding on to, we can’t stay in between it
I know you, hope I do now
Communication’s down
I know you, hope I do now
We come closer
A comfort to us all
Insured against a fall from normal life
Afraid to be at it alone
To shoulder I wonder is it safe for now
This could go either way
This could work out between us, or never again
Make it clean, how realistic we mean to
I know you



2. Everything Has Its Point


The day will come through
It will only take some time
Turning into a press on the matter
Look for the reasons behind it all
The day will come through
It might do you some good
Down, lift off from the ground
Each second to save
Everything has its point today
What you say might come true
I wouldn’t complain unless you want me to
Point out where you live
And notice who you friends are
You are better off
This will only take some time to understand
Down, lift off the ground
Each second to save
Everything has its point today
So many questions how you live
The bests reasons I can give
I’ve never been here before
Everything has its point today
Lost it all again
To start over
Turn around and then, you see things even
You see everything



3. High Acetate


Trouble abounds when you’re left out of the makeup
Sunday dreams, a launch of schemes to overwhelm
I hope I’m the only one to weigh in on the colors I choose
High acetate, fly elevate
Unrealistic ideas float in like reindeers that pull the sleigh
I bet you never thought your movie would turn out this way
Can’t take it, it’s mine
Leave it behind, it’s your chance to make
High acetate, fly elevate
Up onward, moving forward
Creation with no hesitation
Witness a launch of schemes so fine
Going to realize all your dreams of mine



4. Undercovers On


Crept on you slowly
But faster than you could see
It’s not like I noticed
I wouldn’t be the first one you let in
The same person that you know would forget to be honest
I might be the furthest from your mind
Whatever you told me somehow you sold me on
I want to believe it ‘til I see later on
Apparition counterfeit
Can this racket go on another year
Overconfident, maybe
You’re still here
Misplaced my fear
Whatever you told me, somehow you sold me on
I want to believe it ‘til I see later on
You cross the other way
And hope I didn’t see you
I start calling out your name
Cause I want to meet you again
Don’t know why you say you’re doing fine
That’s not what it looks like
Something doesn’t feel right
You’re undercover’s on
You’re acting kind of warm
But soon you’ve got to leave
There’s something you need
I’m not invited to go
Those people that you know
Well, they don’t care about you
Could live easily without you



5. Good Things


In line I long to be
Inside your company
Good things are coming
I know they always have
In time, a far away place that we can go
I know we will someday
On our own, until then I will lay inside
Rest on a rising tide
Don’t be so selfless
I’ll wait on the same lines as you
Can’t be so helpless
Good things are coming our way
Good things are coming, I’ll wait
In line, I long to be
Inside your company
Maybe you know
We’ll go wherever you wanted to
I’m through wishing I was somewhere else
Drive along to escape
Good things are coming
Don’t be so selfless
I’ll wait on the same lines as you
Can’t be so helpless
Good things are coming our way
Good things are coming, I’ll wait
Drive along to our escape



6. Used For Glue


Days of the conflicts you’ve been in
Traces of conscience you don’t want to hear
You hear it now
You listen, hear a sound
You missed it
Taken by conscience or taken by guilt
You live in the problems you decided to build
You hear it now
You listen and hear a sound that cant be still
The blame is found, you got it
Rode when she was new
But wasn’t told when she was through
Yeah
Dazed for time you were into
Praise from the crowd that you wanted to fool
You call them now, they’re waiting
To hear a sound that can’t be still
The blame is found, you got it
Rode when she was new but wasn’t told when she was through
Yeah



7. World Invitational


Inside it feels like you’re no one
It’s fine, evaluate it with caution
Started thinking it’s all your fault
Can’t salvage your damaged goods
Or solve all these problems we have
The problems you only imagine
The world’s invitation waiting for your call
Leave your own limitations
No one cares at all
This is no special occasion
This will turn out the way it should be
Insecure, we’ll solve these problems we have
The problems we’ve only imagined
The world’s invitation waiting for your call
Leave your own limitations
No one cares at all
Save for people you know
It’s hardest to let go
Let me out of it



8. The Switch


Another quarter mile, we can’t stop running
Must be on time
Holding the lost files
A drop off’s coming
Too soon for us
This is the switch
One day, one far from we’re in now
We’ll look back and laugh
If we make the checkpoint
All our worries will be gone for some time
A stolen suitcase full of your secrets
Soon will unwind
This is the switch
Play innocent, were innocent
I’ll wash my hands one day
One far from we’re in now
We’ll look back and laugh
We’ll move to a foreign town
In Argentina, if you’re down
No one will recognize us
Spending with our new disguises on
If only the switch would come



9. Holding Sand


Sew a late seed
And so inside
A cast out, unwanted son
A crawl to what you want
Sit down, you fault, you run away from anyone
And where you live, I feel most on
A corner of space that you don’t run
And guard’s off, I pass you by
Makes no impression as you stand
Makes no impression holding sand
A waif across the sea, aloss
Because you can’t think straight
It’s your calling
Wasted mourning
You wish it was your hand sliding down her back
Call, this is the first thing that you can solve
As the weight comes off again
Always the last to remember a name
Makes no impression as you stand
Makes no impression holding sand
You had your captive fan, and then what?
She saw your face and it tied your hands
Made no impression on me
Only left out holding sand
And it runs through
Shows in your face and runs through your hands



10. My Echo


Three voices on the phone
Between me, you and my echo
Decide to let me know
That you can’t hear at all
Constant interference of my echo
Can you give me clearance, Clarence?
Some relief, I long to be back home
Given the options I’ve had
To cover a meaningful, wise conversation
I only want too bad
It’s not a pressure you feel under
A silent wonder
Constant interference of my echo
Can you give me clearance, Clarence?
Some relief, I long to be back home
I’m getting tired of holding your hand
Suddenly sick of proposals and questions
I hope you understand that you’ve been no help at all
End of call



11. Favorite Star


How can you take away my favorite star
I don’t think that will happen soon
No, not in this lifetime
We live like one for the other, a part of the same
Oh great, here comes another contender swept away
I’ll show them, teach them to mess with us
Laws will be laid down
Unwound
We play some parts up, others down to our ankles
We’re not running from anyone
We’ve only just begun
Like the song
And if you come around
I’ll give you my address
Let me in on your progress
As close as we are, my favorite star
I’ll show them, teach them to mess with us
Laws will be laid down
It’s not in my control
Trust your hands
Our future plans work out



12. So Dawn On


You can blame this fall on some
Invitation to your friend
When she promised that she come
You could wait until the end
Now you want it all too soon
Just to calm what´s on your mind
Until she calls it off again, to the wayside
Yesterday is left behind
It´s as close as you might get
Until she calls you all the time
So she can get down
Not adjusted to begin, as you lay with your concerns
Are we better off as friends are?
Either way it burns
You said I´m lost instead
Well, that´s all in your head
