Limousine 03:06
Pursuit Taking my heart What you wanna What you wanna do Crazy in the limousine Oh crazy in the limousine Shoot shoot Taking my eyes Roll the windows up I can’t stand it Ride into the sunrise Going crazy in the limousine I don’t wanna see the party end I don’t wanna be just ordinary I don’t wanna finish the dance I don’t wanna be just ordinary Never gonna throw in the towel I don’t wanna be just ordinary Livin’ with my heart in hand I don’t wanna be just ordinary Up tight Crème brûléed How’s it gonna How’s it gonna be Crazy in the limousine Going crazy in the limousine Can’t let them know I’m inside Rev the engine up It’s gettin’ scary Hard to believe I’ll die in style Crazy in the limousine I don’t wanna see the party end I don’t wanna be just ordinary I don’t wanna finish the dance I don’t wanna be just ordinary Never gonna throw in the towel I don’t wanna be just ordinary Livin’ with my heart in hand I don’t wanna be No I don’t wanna be Ordinary Ordinary No I don’t wanna No I don’t wanna I don’t wanna be Ordinary I don’t wanna be

I knew someone That cared ‘bout one thing A secret truth To help me swim ‘Cause they showed me how How to dream They showed me how To follow the stars To make every day Worth the pain To know Gotta keep on dreamin’ A guiding light For the wounded and the scarred Blinded by A beacon in the dark ‘Cause they showed me how How to dream They showed me how To follow the stars To make every day Worth the pain To know Gotta keep on dreamin’ So many things that we consume Filling our bodies to the brim Only making us feel more confused And empty in the end ‘Cause they showed me how How to dream They showed me how To follow the stars To make every day Worth the pain To know Gotta keep on dreamin’

She's Got It 03:27
She’s got it (And you know she’s got it) Real one Jenny Tracing your lines Kiss me, kiss me Prayed all my life Painted inside the lines Unfold your legs And catch me inside Daydreams are my right But I can’t figure out when they lie (She’s got it) Touch me Free form Draped in your light Jenny Kiss me Prayed all my life (And you know she’s got it) Real one Jenny Tracing your lines Kiss me, kiss me Prayed all my life Folded on dotted lines Deserve you more Each passing blink of the eye Daydreams are my right But I can’t figure out when they lie (And you know she’s got it) Real one Jenny Tracing your lines Kiss me, kiss me Prayed all my life ‘Cause you want me bad (And you know she’s got it) Touch me Free form Draped in your light Jenny Kiss me Prayed all my life

Monomaniac 03:31
You reached through an ocean To leave all that you loved You hung out with vipers As night turned to black dust I wished I was like you I wished I could fight back I wished I was stable I wished I was cool So cool New name Ice blue Such dreams are waiting to defame Now you can’t consume The jesters inside They make no room You’re fishing for lies I wished I was cool I wished I was able I wished I was like you I wished I was so cool So cool New name Ice blue Such dreams are waiting to defame Fame Such dreams are weighing on you They weigh you down So cool Sick game Ice blue Such dreams are waiting to defame Fame Such dreams are waiting to defame Fame

Carolina 04:21
Somewhere She floats Lost in paradise Higher and higher she goes Further from home Truth cries from a pale night Two minds solo Where to find her Carolina Oh, Caroline She’s on my mind I wanna find her Oh, Carolina Oh, Caroline She’s somewhere Somewhere Down here, full tilt Precious Submerged in decline Reaching and reaching for why Why my body doesn’t fly But she says float It’s better than to deny I’m tryin’ to find her Oh, Carolina Oh, Caroline She’s on my mind I’m tryin’ to find her Oh, Carolina Oh, Caroline She’s somewhere She’s somewhere The body can wait, love In a moment I’ll be fine Gonna meet you In a red tornado I’ll melt in your breast, love Spinnin’ through This wild life Half holdin’ onto The afterglow Somewhere I’m tryin’ to find her Carolina Carolina I’m tryin’ to find her Oh, Carolina Caroline I’m tryin’ to find her Oh, Carolina I’m tryin’ to find Carolina

Chic 17 03:48
Waiting on the corner of elmhurst Children that got lost in the hole Seeking all the release of heaven Baby, won’t you just come home Chic seventeen Cutting like a knife Chic seventeen Cutting like a Howling up the aisles I’m ageless Don’t know where I’d be Crushed up all the razors I’m weightless Tell me how would I see Chic seventeen Cutting like a knife Chic seventeen Cutting like a Shriek Shadow Stall A little afraid Night Tableau Sharp A little afraid Blue veins Slacken Silver So very afraid Foul play Callin’ Phone’s dead Stalling Chic seventeen (How long can I wait) Cutting like a knife (How long can I wait) Severed screams

1995 04:14
They took you A shadowed wing Left the water Filled with bugs On empty No more sting No more hurricane Stuck in the middle Swayed Rut Con-man Where’d you go? He closed the lid And lowered the curtain The screams of a child Who didn’t deserve it The 90s Yeah, I knew you then Smeared through years The dirt is heavy Colors forgotten Eyes already Snuffed out Somewhere Stuck in the middle, how? Dull in the middle, how? The man he bleeds Got fingers in the pain Ooh la la Nightmare Smiles blur ‘Cause he got lost Never said Never got to say goodbye Never got to say goodbye

We know all the playbook In our gaslit reverie ruse Still we don’t care All obedient animals They want our minds inside a vat They want our feelings to evaporate Take my hand Run as fast as we can There we can laugh in colors A ways away There we can dance in colors Take my hand We’re living In our own reflection Division Is the grand direction Play dead Stallion All obedient animals They want our minds inside a vat They want our feelings to evaporate Take my hand Run as fast as we can There we can laugh in colors A ways away There we can dance in colors Take my hand They want our thoughts inside a vat They want our feelings to evaporate Take my hand Run as fast as we can There we can laugh in colors There we can weep in colors Take my hand
