1.Lift

Lift up your head
Focus on every detail
Why does this illusion bring so much confusion
When all i can dream of is you
Lift up your head
We're rising with every breath
A liquid solution a chemical fusion
When all i can dream of is you

Constantly feeling the earth spinning around
But i'm standing alone
With you i see stars in your eyes
In a trance i'm so high
With you i survive
Let's get away now!

Imagine there's no one around
Imagine you're not just a face in the crowd
There's a new set of rules
No more pain of confusion
You're numb to the world that you know
I'm constantly feeling like nothing's bringing me down
Cause you're always around
With you i see stars in your eyes
In a trance we're alive
Ten feet off of the ground
Let's turn it up now!

I got you
I got you
I got you
It's ready for you
(repeat 3 more times and then repeat again w/the following 4
lines:)

Lift up your head
It's amazing where everyone goes in the end
Why does this illusion bring so much confusion
When all i can dream of is you

I'm on the ground
I'm off the ground
Ten feet off (when i'm with you)
Ten feet off (when i'm with you)
(repeat 1 more time before guitar solo)
(repeat 2 more times after solo)

I could be true with you
I could be through with you

Don't you get it we're alive
Completely out of sight
We're running out of time
With love we can survive
(repeat 2 more times)

Don't you get it we're alive
Completely out of sight
With love we will survive


2.Talk Show Host

I can't describe the pressure of the hype
Another show they'll have your vein opened up again
But it's all the same they way they sell the game
Sucking out the feeling so you'll never win
Overload...in stereo...i'm sweating like a talk show host
tonight
Overload...in stereo...i'm sweating like a talk show host
tonight

Despite the high that tends to come out live
The repetition seems to grab the flare away
The radio it seems so shady oh
I'll never hear myself just quite the same again

Overload...in stereo...i'm sweating like a talk show host
tonight
Overload...in stereo...i'm sweating like a talk show host
tonight

I'll see you on the way down
(repeat 3 more times)

Overload...in stereo...i'm sweating like a talk show host
tonight
Overload...in stereo...i'm sweating like a talk show host
tonight

Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight


3.Chloroform The One You Love

And if i couldn't attain
All i need to explain
Would she even look me in the eye again
She sits back and ignores
My need to adore
Intimidations got me down again
She's only 18 but such a beautiful dream
All she needs is some chloroform
And she'll be mine
Chloroform the one, the one that you love
And take her back

Every once in a while
I catch a strut and a smile
Maybe rejection is the high
That keeps me coming here
I need some compassion but she's
Laughing at the nervousness
I feel whenever she is around
And i can't see just how real
Is the charm no i don't mean
Her no harm despite my heart
And the challenge while she's lying here

Chloroform the one, the one that you love
And take her back
(repeat 1 more time)

So just walk on by
I can see today is like any other day
But it seems brighter than it was before
I just can't believe that its
Not the same no it's not the same
It will never be the same for me again

Chloroform the one, the one that you love
And take her back
(repeat 3 more times)


4.Coke

Says she's got another life
That i am living in my friend
Through and through she says
It's nothing i can change
I always was the one
The celebration ends without a sound
And the friends they're not around
And you find you're all alone
Talking to yourself again
You promised it's the end
Just one night you'll be fine
Cause in the end the dreams you dream
Are all you ever were

Says she's got another life
That i am living in my friend
Through and through she says
It's nothing i can change
I always was the one
And she'll say
Come on i'd like to buy the world a coke
And lie here naked with my girl
Come on i'd like to buy the world a coke
And lie here naked with my girl

The lights dim once again someday i'll sleep
Cause it's all the same to me
This tiny voice inside my head keeps me awake
Come on let's find the cure
Come on let's die until we live
In the end you'll find how high you climbed
There's no design to ever bring you down

Says she's got another life
That i am living in my friend
Through and through she says
It's nothing i can change
I always was the one
And i'll say
Come on i'd like to buy the world a coke
And lie here naked with my girl
Come on i'd like to buy the world a coke
And lie here naked with my girl

And she knows
(repeat 6 more times)

I gotta buy the world a coke
I gotta buy the world a coke
And lie here naked with my girl

And she knows
(repeat 9 more times)


5.Beautiful

You could be the devil in my bed
You could be the angel in my head
You could be the voices that i hear
I'm singing along because it sounds just like you're near
Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today

I could be the drug you can't resist
I could be the antidote you missed
I could be the love you hate to fear
You're filling the hole inside your heart with feeling near to
me

Cause you're so beautiful
You're beautiful today
You're so beautiful
Beautiful in every little way
Cause when you're coming around
I'm off the ground
I've got to say
You're so beautiful
You're beautiful today

Can we make it through
Together we got to fly
Don't you know i got to fly
Cause when you're coming around i got to fly
Don't you know i want to fly

And i know
And i feel
That i could learn to hate just like you
And i know
And i feel
That you could learn to love just like me

(repeat above 6 lines)

(repeat chorus w/above 3 lines in background)

Can we make it through together
I've got to fly


6.Sorry...wrong Trajectory

Sorry...wrong trajectory
Combat is a part of our chemistry
Could you control me if you tried
Cause its plain to see i'm overboard
I'm thrown out, my ships are sent ashore
Could you control me if you tried
Cause you and i we may feel surprised
To cry out loud just one more time
Cause you're just another part of me
Somehow i know you still believe
You could control me if you tried
So where's your heart at now
Cause you're always running out
When everyone seems to change
Don't you know that i'm still feeling the blame
Tonight i'm gonna be ready for you

So let's break it down
I know that the pain still lies beneath you
A common attraction
I wanted to see you
I wanted to be you
To be you someday

Sorry...wrong trajectory
Combat is a part of our chemistry
Could you control me if you tried


7.You're So Hollywood

Well it's a common attraction
Searching for the night club scene
Cause you're so hollywood
You're so hollywood
And you're looking for some action
With your flash bulb eyes tonight
You're so hollywood
You're so hollywood she said

I got to get out of this town
Got to get my feet back on the ground
Don't want to sell my record collection
So take a look in my direction
So i'm off (off!)
I'm feeling down
It's getting tough (tough!)
You know that the getting out is getting rough (rough!)
This town is fucking with my head
You're so hollywood she said

And it's getting close to dark now
On the sunset boulevard
You're so hollywood
You're so hollywood

With the designer medications
Just another valium in the red wine
You're so hollywood
You're so hollywood she said

I got to get out of this town
Got to get my feet back on the ground
Don't want to sell my record collection
So take a look in my direction
So i'm off
I'm feeling down
It's getting tough
You know that the getting out is getting rough
This town is fucking with my head
You're so hollywood she said

So sit back and watch me rise
Higher than the moon
I'm up here all alone
Looking down at you
(repeat)

I got to get out of this town
Got to get my feet back on the ground
Don't want to sell my record collection
So take a look in my direction
So i'm off
I'm feeling down
It's getting tough
You know that the getting out is getting rough
This town is fucking with my head
You're so hollywood she said

You're so hollywood she said
(repeat into fade)


8.Got A Feeling

I got a feeling, it's a feeling
That you'll never understand
It's like a rush to my heart
That i hope never ends
But it all depends
It's a power such a power
A sensation that is changing how i feel about you
It's all brand new
The fight is far from over
There's nothing left to prove

Cause i'm in charge
Let's just sail away tonight

Cause when you
Get what you want
Then you make it
Don't take it away
If you break it
Don't save it
Just run away
Just run away
Just run away

So can't you see that we're the same
Because there's no one else to blame
The only one's who can handle
Their share of the pain
It's just a game

I thought i'd never get away
Another trip another day
I think i've seen you before
It's all the same the friends they come and go
The years just fade away

So step in line
Cause we're breaking out this time

Get what you want
Then you make it
Don't take it away
If you break it
Don't save it
Don't fake it

Get what you want
Then you make it
Don't take it away
If you break it
Don't save it
Just run away
Just run away
Just run away

Got a feeling
It's a feeling
That you'll never understand
I couldn't live without the rush
It's a must
Don't you break out
Don't fake out
Don't sell out
Don't sell out
Don't sell out
You compromise every word you say

Get what you want
Then you make it
Don't take it away
If you break it
Don't save it
Don't fake it

Get what you want
Then you make it
Don't take it away
If you break it
Don't save it
Just run away
Just run away
Just run away
Just run away
Just run away


9.Hey Or When The Drugs Wear Off

Hey, you do it all the time
Hey, you do it all
So take a breath, i know you're feeling jaded
Talking about the time that you left me
Naked and face down in the hotel hallway
Dallas, texas, 3 a.m.

But i know the telephone would ring
And you'd say all those beautfiul things
Oh how you do it all the time
How you get me on the line
Your explanation

Hey, you do it all the time
Hey, you do it all

And when the drugs wear off
You find you're not so tough
You think that you're so special
That you're high above the rest

But i know the telephone would ring
And you'd say all those beautfiul things
Oh how you do it all the time
How you get me on the line
Your explanation

Hey, you do it all the time
Hey, you do it all

And now i know i've got the right idea
No one is ever changing me again you see
In any little way
It's so amazing how the years
Seem shorter now i know
It's not what i'm used to today
(repeat again after solo)

Hey, you do it all the time
Hey, you do it all

Come on now you do it all the time
You know that you do it all the time
Come on how you do it all the time


10.Right Way To Fly

Listen for sounds you've been chosen to hear
Like you're laughing alone in the dark
Feeling so down but there's nothing to fear
But the break that i feel in my heart
But i suddenly see someone's waiving at me
A silhouette image a daydream
I'm hearing sounds of the turntable spinning
And you're running on air
I feel alright sometime
So look out yesterday
Tearing out the thoughts
With every word you say
Cause i know there's
A right way to fly
And a right way to die
So i'm just holding on

Numbing the pain like a brand new beginning
Cause everyone here looks the same
The merry-go-roung makes me
Feel like i'm spinning and
Everyone's screaming my name
But i suddenly see someone's waiving at me
A silhouette image a daydream
I'm hearing sounds of the turntable spinning
Like i'm running on air

I feel alright sometime
So look out yesterday
Tearing out my thoughts
With every word you say
Cause i know there's
A right way to fly
And a right way to die
So i'm just holding on

Well time is slowly tearing me apart
So i'm just holding on
Cause i know it's a ride
And it feels so hot today
Despite your holding everything inside
Get it out once in a while
Say goodbye to yesterday

Nah na na nah...


11.Direct Line To The Telepathic

Hey, look at me
I'm causing a catastrophe
But i, i just might see you and me
The headlights bright as the daydream
Hey, look at me
I'm causing a catastrophe
But i, i just might see you and me
The excess your own celebration now

Tiny records spin holding in
The air that you breathe
Tearing right through the seams you sew
It's getting right back to you

So let it rain, rain on
I'm causing a catastrophe

So let it rain, rain on
I'm causing a catastrophe

I got a direct line
A direct line
To the telepathic now

I got a direct line
A direct line
To the telepathic now

So let it rain, rain on
I'm causing a catastrophe

So let it rain, rain on
I'm causing a catastrophe

I got a direct line
A direct line
To the telepathic now

I got a direct line
A direct line
To the telepathic now
