Steady Now
03:47
|

|
Wake up now, find you're underground
You're buried deep, forgotten how to breathe now
If you'll ever see the light of day again
Then feel your heart beat, beat
And dig until you can
I'll scream till you hear me out
You'll see right through me now
I'll scream till you hear me out
You'll see that I'm not so steady now
Steady now, hold steady
I'm not so steady now

The Other Side
03:50
|

|
You wait for some kind of sign
You wait and you try to hide out here in the daylight
Such an awful place to be
Such an awful place to try not to see
And I'd hate to see what you see
What you see when you see me
'Cause I know you see a fool
And I'll play along in this game
To what end I'm not saying
But I ain't nobody's fool
'Cause I've seen the other side
I've heard the voice of God
'Cause I've seen the other side
And it makes it all all right
But it comes like a rush of tide
It rolls in and in goes out
And I'm left here half alive
But I'll wait like blushing bride
With her eye on the shoreline
'Cause it's worth it every time
'Cause I've seen the other side
I've heard the voice of God
'Cause I've seen the other side
And it makes it all all right

Sinking

I'm sinking with you right next to me
I'm reaching out my hand, will you save me
The wind is gettin' stronger, you see
The water's rising up, will you save me
And take me home
I'm rising from the depths of the deep
I'm swimming for the air that can save me
The light breaks and I'm starting to see
Your hands are almost within my reach
And I'll be home
Then I'll know
I'll be home

Holy Motors
03:05

Holy motors, why you running round like that
Scraping against these fears and bringing 'em right back
Holy motors, why you ending things like that
Saying it's all you have, and taking it right back
It's all for show, it's all for...
It's all for show, 'cause all you know
Is to fake it
Holy motors, how can all this last
Slip in the shadows and put on your mask
Holy motors, one day they'll find you out
And then you can't hide, and then you can't
It's all for show, it's all for...
It's all for show, 'cause all you know
Is to fake it

Too Far
03:30
|
|||
|
I left you for dead, your body was cold
How could I know that you'd come back?
I thought you'd be here through dark and cold
I swear I thought you said that
It's been a while, I feel like I'm gettin' old
I just wanna know if you'll come through
'Cause everything I see is fallin' apart
And everything you promised is too far away
It's too far
It's too far away

Soldier On
03:33

The pain will go away someday, she said
But I'm sitting here, thoughts of you in the back of my head
The memories will fade someday, she said
But I'm lying here, thoughts of you are running round in my head
Yeah
You'll find somebody new someday, she said
But it's been years and I still wake up alone in my bed
I know you'll have it all someday, she said
But I need it now so my past doesn't steal me again
So I'll soldier on
Battle torn but hangin' on
So I'll soldier on
On these front lines that we've drawn
The pain will go away someday, she said
But I'm sitting here, thoughts of you in the back of my head
The memories will fade someday, she said
But I need it now so my past doesn't steal me again
So I'll soldier on
Battle torn but hangin' on
So I'll soldier on
On these front lines that we've drawn

Out to Sea
05:32
|
|||
|
Ten days alone, I'm out to sea
The water's calm, so blue and deep
And I'll find just what I need
Ten days adrift, I'm lost at sea
The waves rise up, they toss me
And I'll find just what I need

The Take Denver, Colorado
The Take is a cherry red 1982 Trans Am with tee tops peeling out in the high school parking lot, a Chuck Norris spinning
roundhouse kick to the bad guy's head, the rogue wave you never saw coming, the wolf outside your door.
We're also a rock band.
