Lyrics

Leave them all behind

Wheels turning around
Into alien grounds
Pass through different times
Leave them all Behind

Just to see
We've got so far to go
Until we get there
Just let it flow

Colours shining clear
Fading into night
Our grasp is broken
There's nothing we can do

I don't care about the colours
I don't care about the light
I don't care about the truth

Twisterella

Any minute you will feel
The chemistry
Vibrations in the brain
Can't ever be explained

Slip away and out of sight
Feel the magnet of a night
The circus lights you see
Is where you have to be

If I've seen it all before
Why's this bus taking me back again
If I don't need anymore
Why's this bus taking me back again

Feel the weight of letting go
Feel more lightness than you've ever known
You can't see when light`s so strong
You can't see when light is gone

Look at twisterella She hasn't got a fella

Not fazed

I won't be a monkey in anyone's zoo
And I won't get fazed whatever you do

"Hit him again, he's crazy"

Chrome waves

One hundred years from now
See the chrome, can't hear it move
I'll meet you on the way down
Wrapped around somebody`s hand
We've all moved on from here
The colour's running dry
A drowsy line of wasted time
Bathes my open mind

This strange machinery
Is keeping you from seeing me
I'll meet you on the way down
Can't stay - unbearable to go

Mouse trap

Running away
You're lost for words again
Now you`ve got all what you wanted
Are you really satisfied?

Tricky scenes
Tricky little dreams
The earth spins and my head spins me
Back round to you

Time of her time

She turns her face to the wall
She sees hew sorrow there
Puts out her hand to touch it
Again and again
Fingernail marks in the morning
Wallpaper silhouettes
Signs of her yesterdays
Can't ever be wiped away

She thought I would care
Thought that I'd be there
Think again

Your face I've seen in visions
In silver rippling sky
No feelings, reactions
As I pass you by
Weeks compressed to minutes
This time is her time
Let me just once
Be cruel without being kind

Cool your boots

Across 50 states of mind
I didn't feel inclined
You waited yesterday
I didn't come your way
Now time is moving on
I know it won't be long
Till I`m shuffling away
With nothing more to say

When I'm printed on your wall
My face won't change at all
The smile beneath my hair
Hangs lifeless in the air
Like a net in water
I'm running through it all
And I'm shuffling away
With nothing more to say

It's been preying on my mind
And now I'm just resigned
You smile for yesterday
I think I'm in the way
You seem concerned
And say I should slow down
But how can I see the stars
If my feet are on the ground?

Making Judy smile

There's a picture on the door
Madman smiling from the floor
It's a good day for a drive
If you think you will survive

Just my way of saying hi
'Cos I knew I wouldn't write
And the seat will fit one more
So there`s room enough for four

Your words they flatter me
You fill my head with tea
Please let me take it one more mile
The Galaxie will burn
If I can't make it turn
I hope I'm making Judy smile

Time machine

Waste no more energy
No more time
Step into the time machine
Aboard this flight
Time to go
It's sad that you're not here
To open up your eyes and....
watch me dissapear

Carried away
Imaginations are running wild

Losing control
I'm landing back this year
Did I ever move?
Did I dissapear?
If I could move through time
I'd go back and put it right

Ox4

Never been so far away
I don't think I want to stay in this room
Anymore

If I crawl across the floor
Then I'd be closer to that door
It's too far

Never been so far away
Just lost the last thought in my head
What happens now?

Some fantasy you've been
Pick up the pieces in my mind
I'm going home
