I want you to know Just what I've become I don't think you are recognizing It was nothing at all It was nothing at all There's a sink all full of hair That you just can't seem to clean And the moose comes stares in front of you It was nothing at all It was nothing at all It was nothing at all
2.
Destiny it doesn't seem that far Yeah, come with me I'll show you how It's plain to see, it's hidden in the clouds Yeah, I could see that shooting star I climbed the highest mountain To see the future is ours The sun was breaking on the horizon But you waited Yeah, I believe there's somebody out there Yeah, I can hear you in my sleep So walk with me into the outer sphere I will show you what you need I climbed the highest mountain To see the future is ours The sun was breaking on the horizon But you waited I climbed the highest mountain To see the future is ours This plan was over when we put sound in But you waited Yeah we waited Yeah we waited Too long

Cylinder 03:40
Into the woods we walked Down by the suffering station It's been awhile since we talked I don't know if I can see you, yeah Something to make me wired Something to take the edge off Somehow I make it by Things are not always silent, yeah Enter the sun, enter the miracle of love Tell me you love her, just not today I'll leave a light on anyway Tell me you never apologized That never even crossed your mind Tell me it all, cause I'm here right now Cylinder Forgive and I will Seems like things are changing Forget and I will Or it's gonna make you hollow, yeah Enter the sun, enter the miracle of love Tell me you love her, just not today I'll leave a light on anyway Tell me you never apologized The never ever even crossed your mind Tell me it all, cause I'm here right now Tell me it all, cause I'm here right now Tell me it all, cause I'm here right now Tell me it all, cause I'm here right now Tell me it all, cause I'm here right now Cylinder

Save You 03:59
Sometimes I feel strange Sometimes I don't feel alright Like lost in a way But the truth comes out somewhere I wanted to love you I wanted to make things right I wanted to save you tonight It'll be ok It'll work out somehow That distant day When the truth comes out somewhere I wanted to love you I wanted to make things right I wanted to save you tonight I wanted to love you I wanted to make you mine I wanted to save you tonight Oh the wait Summer dreams Just to bring you home But I forget just what to do Something brings me back always I wanted to love you I wanted to make things right I wanted to save you tonight I wanted to love you I wanted to change your mind I wanted save you tonight I wanted love you I wanted to make you mine I wanted save you tonight

Headlights 04:03
Headlights move me along Break through all this fog Out here on my own Headlights bring me home This time that we spent Alone turning the bends Headlights begin Headlights you're all I can see From up here you're gleaming People going their ways You'll get there one day This time that we spent Alone turning the bends Headlights begin that's right This time that we spent Alone turning the bends Headlights begin
6.
Like yesterday I want the world to know you Like watergate I'm lost in this world without you I won't run away I won't let you down Until you fade away A thousand pink balloons Got lost along the way Never to be found I cast a stray I want the world to know you Like yesterday Got lost in the sun without you I won't run away I won't let you down Until you fade away A thousand pink balloons Got lost along the way Never to be found Oh, it's so messed up What do we do? I'm a lot like you I won't run away I won't let you down Until you fade away A thousand pink balloons Got lost along the way Never to be found
7.
I forget again What was it that you said? A thousand times before One foot out the door You wanted so much Just to make it right And you worried so much Just to make it right One last dance tonight It's on my way take a ride And some might say you're on my side Off to the other side I can see you now Breaking through the crowd Time and circumstance A corridor a glance And you wanted so much Just to make it right And you worried so much Just to make it right One last dance tonight It's on my way take a ride And some might say you're on my side The sun will set the sun will rise It's on my way take a ride Off to the other side It's on my way take a ride Some might say you're on my side The sun will set the sun will rise It's on my way take a ride Off to the other side

Hold On Mama 04:19
Sometimes you have to go on Knowing that it's wrong I've been at this for hours Or maybe not that long Solitary feelings and solitary thoughts Thought I heard you saying darling Just keep playing that song Hold on mama It's alright, I know it's harder this way Been stuck in the middle of my life Trying to find my way An old familiar places An old familiar field Where nothing ever changes Except the seasons and the years An old familiar faces An old familiar wave Kinda like the way it smells After it rains Hold on mama It's alright, I know it's harder this way Been stuck in the middle of my life Trying to find my way Take your religion it's alright Listen to what they say I've been to every city mama I'm telling you they're all the same

It's another great illusion Love there's no substitution It's just another marble floor You're coming back from the war I think I'll just let out a scream But no one's gonna hear me Besides I just can't relate I just don't have what it takes So what're you gonna do now? Just look up at the clouds And listen to some new music It's gonna get you through it I heard you're gonna run away And go off to some other place And go mad like Jack Nicholson Roadblocks, closed doors, no one's listening It's another great illusion Life there's no substitution Heard you wanna ask for more Then you're runnin' out the door Think I'll just let out a scream But no one's gonna hear me Besides I can't get up off the seat Oh boy it's got it's claws in me I heard you’re gonna runaway Go off to some other place And go mad like Jack Nicholson Roadblocks, closed doors, no one's listening What’re you gonna do now? Just look up at the clouds And listen to some new music It's gonna get you through it

Hard Road 02:59
I've been seeing much clearer Coming out of the fog Took a look in the mirror To see who I was Wondering where all the time went Where'd the party go? Now I'm stuck on this island Waiting to grow old Like you said It's a hard road Like you said It's a tough load Like you said It's a hard road ahead Another year behind me Another up ahead Nothing left to remind me Just the words you said You said it was kind of an illusion That you see beyond You gotta go through confusion Till you get where you want Like you said It's a hard road Like you said It's a tough load Like you said It's a hard road Well I didn't leave there You left me behind There's some kind of reason Only hurt you'll find So I'm calling lost angels Where are you tonight? I've been seeing much clearer Coming out of the fog Took a look in the mirror To see who I was Wondering where all the time went Where'd the party go? Never heard such silence When it starts to snow
