1.	Time Spent 04:28 video	lyrics	buy track
Time Spent I doubt if you’ll recall Or would have noticed If you did Sits there a boy In the corner of the ocean So well hid Listening to Rid of Me And Live Through This It’s his only intensity It’s his only kiss Picture the end of summer When headphones are halos In teenage bedrooms Dreams there a boy Playing the air As we did – as we did Listening to OPP And It’s a Shame My Sister And it’s a shame about him They whisper I could tell you all How he slipped his keepers And fled Walked then a boy Up the one-way mountain In flames – yes he did While Sunshine & Ecstasy Was making its way He’s monster or angel I’m both he’d say Turn over the hours Like rain and sand Wring out the hours At your command Sit next to him And take his hand Pull his lips to your ear And wait for that faint Last song I was here I was here I was here
2.	Welcome to The Hotel 04:19 video	lyrics	buy track
Welcome To The Hotel Welcome to the hotel Get over it There’s no green grass to walk on Only losing scratch off games Now you’re making noise Like you’re gonna make your way On outta here Before you get to that door The floor is lava You’ve lost your shoes The car won’t start The road is blocked The bridge is out The bridge is out of tune Don’t go Baby please Don’t go Welcome to the hotel Get over it Where everything is vapor Yet there’s no way through In the heat of this battle In the war of this rose The invisible wound The what was it for Don’t go Baby please Don’t go
3.	In His Stare 04:04 video	lyrics	buy track
In His Stare Oh where Is there Someone to anoint Someone who’ll be fair There Oh right there That’s the pleasure point There’s the flare Here – slightly hiding Spread so soft All over the bed Nightly – we are besiding So deeply dark So very wed Darling – look who’s abiding The lights are on The way is led Morning – he comes riding His light so strong Igniting our bed Morning – he comes riding He has my heart He takes my head He takes me up – Up - Up He holds me there – Up - Up And I am the whole of the world In his stare He takes me up - up - up He holds me there - up - up And I am the whole of the world In his stare
4.	With Our Song (for PCM&B) 05:29 video	lyrics	buy track
With Our Song (For PCM&B) The men they play And the women sing The men they come And the women bring While the men they play While the men they play While the men they play The men don’t come And the women weep They weep and pray But it’ll be ok Cuz the women bring The women bring The women bring While the men they sleep While the men they sleep Now the men are lost They’ve lost their way At an unknown cost The gift to play While the women sing Sing another day Sing another day Sing another day But the son it comes And the daughter rises And they start to play Always surprises And they play all day And they rolling strong And they roll as one They go on and on Cuz the children sing And the women play And the men they sing They play all day Cuz the women bring And the children play And the men they sing And the women bring So we can go on So we can go on With our song With our song With our song

The Bends You know I’ve tried To like all my lovers You know I’ve loved All my friends You know we all have Our moments You know it all Just depends Are you moving From point to point Or is this Just a lean Remember rolling From joint to joint So extreme So have your way As you make your way Have your means And your ends Have some lovers And have some friends Who’ll be there Round the bend I’m so explosive They all say They learned To love the bomb We ain’t talkin’ Nagasaki It was Just a tiff Just a tap I hold the door For others Don’t wanna hold The door for you Cuz if I hold That damn door You’re gonna walk on through Are you moving From mouth to mouth Or is this Just a lean All that marching From south to south So Airstream So open and play Be dashing and slay When we get outta bed We get the bends (cuz that’s how deep it goes) Let’s be lovers Let’s be friends Friends and lovers Around the bends

Final Reel I’ve come for your daughter I’m in love with your daughter I’m taking your daughter away I’ve come for your daughter I’m in love with your daughter I’m taking your daughter away I wish you’d stop Calling her my daughter She happens to be My wife That’s when I saw the gun But I didn’t see the knife Too bad I saw the gun And I didn’t see the knife I lost some blood Then I sold your bracelet To that little man In Mexico Holed up in hotel My shirt full of holes I’m paying for love With my life
7.	Total Recall 05:09 video	lyrics	buy track
Total Recall Every morning I go under the city I tunnel down I tunnel back Let me take you down Let me take you downtown Look over there Abandoned dye-transfer factory Look over there Twist faces of Georgetown Who can afford Georgetown I lost track of my cherry I lost track of my vanilla If they ask about me Tell em I died in Manila Patterns of dissection recur Holler back holler back Holler back girl I live on the 99th floor Of nowhere Let me take you there Let me take you downtown You know I wonder where This could have gone on if not for here These stories of creation These stories right here These stories these stories these stories rackin’ back And taking names Tracking back and taking names When they ask about you When they ask about you I’ll say you’re not to blame I’ll say you were never to blame
8.	And Stop 03:12 video	lyrics	buy track
And Stop Night is fallen I can’t get up I sleep all day Since you went away I do not breakfast I do not lunch I do not lunch I do not sup What’s up Not me My friends all say They never see me Since you went away I’m invisible Post Indivisible I blink I register And stop
