- Apartment
I'm living in an apartment
Never have before
And it feels a bit strange living up here on the seventh floor
In the city where I come from
We always lived in a house
But now I've got people over me
Under me
- Caught In The Crowd
There was a guy at my school when I was in high school
We'd ride side by side in the morning on our bicycles
Never even spoken or faced each other
But on the last hill we'd race each other
When we reached the racks, we'd each go our own way
I wasn't in his classes, I didn't know his name
When we finally got to speak, he just stared at his feet
- God's gift to women
Pale moonlight, neon-bright
Whispers in the early night
Golden mane, read 'The Game'
Watch them drawn like moths to flame
Studied the practical tactics of pick-ups
Right down to the pitfalls and hiccups
Before you start I say, "Stop, it's a stick-up"
- Politics In Space
I'm not gonna state my case anymore
Cause I haven't got a leg to stand on
I'm not gonna take the leap anymore
Cause I got no mat to land on
I'm not gonna smoke that shit anymore
It'll only get me thinking
And I better not paddle upstream anymore
- The End Of School
I remember the end of school
Felt like the start of something bigger
bigger than the sky at night in your big backyard
When your parents were gone and we were drinking a cask
Getting bent in Lake Annand park
Making out when the streets got darker
After midnight we'd follow the road
Walk all night just to see where it goes
- The Last Day On Earth
Look down,
The ground below is crumbling.
Look up,
The stars are all exploding.
Hey yeah, hey yeah oh
Hey yeah, hey yeah
- Words
Are these words working do they work for you?
Is there something wrong between us?
Is there something I can do?
Is there some way I can take back all the times you threw away?
Been burning up the decade when you should've seized the day
I wonder why you're talking 'cause you're talking all the time
Will you ever get the message and just leave it all behind
