Charlie the Spook
All these things were left undone
He never caught the confidence bug
Fight the feeling that he’s all gone
In this override
It’s never happening until it is
The storm is singing in times like this
What’s forgotten really is
In the powerlines
Charlie wants to be in the next world
Charlie wants to know our human hurt
Charlie wants to haunt all the extraverts
Charlie wants to float on the outskirts
He couldn’t tell that nothing was there
He’s moving on; we don’t know where
He reached out to capture the air
Now the world’s on fire
Charlie was a spook on Telegraph Hill
If you see past this then he probably will
Charlie wants to be in the next world
Charlie wants to know our human hurt
Charlie wants to haunt all the extraverts
Charlie wants to float on the outskirts
Escape the city for a couple of days
Out on the water - out on the waves
Charlie’s scream finds it’s way out
Charlie’s scream finds it’s way out
Charlie’s scream finds it’s way out
Charlie’s scream finds it’s way out
Charlie wants to be in the next world
Charlie wants to know our human hurt
Charlie wants to haunt all the extraverts
Charlie want to float on the outskirts
Charlie wants to wear that hair shirt
Charlie wants to be in the universe
Charlie wants to be in the human world
Charlie has to stay
Meteorite
I see you in the starlight as we’re caught by the moon
I see you in the twilight as we’re breaking the blue
The past is over
The past
The past is over
The past
Re-ignite all those lights
We’ll keep them shining throughout the night
Like moonlight
Our time goes like a meteorite
I hear the voices rising from the deep
A union between the sky and the sea
Rising, rising in your sleep
Hiding beneath your dreams
The past is over
The past
The past is over
The past
The sky....
Turn it up
Turn it up again
Growing underground
Growing underground
Under the blood red sky
Blood red sky...
Here comes the morning
Blue and pale
Here comes the morning
Re-ignite all those lights
We’ll keep them shining throughout the night
Like moonlight
Our time goes like a meteorite
Upside Down
You’re undone
You’re unsung
You are undercover
You want to say that these days are beyond redemption
All this time passing by into the ether
All these words are unheard by the mechanism
And the moon
That hangs in the blue sky
We turn it around
And you
You tell me not to
Shine through the clouds
And you
We hang in the blue sky
When the night comes down
And you
You tell me not to
You’ve been around
Now we’re upside down
Inside out
And upside down
We have gone far too long living in the shadows
We break into the afternoon when we are leaving
All she said is “be prepared, the night will touch you”
You’re undone
You’re unsung
You are undercover
You’re undone
You’re unsung
You’re undercover
You want to say that these days are beyond redemption
All this time passing by into the ether
All these words are unheard by the mechanism
And the moon
That hangs in the blue sky
We turn it around
And you
You tell me not to
Shine through the clouds
And you
We hang in the blue sky
When the night comes down
And you
You tell me not to
You’ve been around
Now we’re upside down
Inside out
And upside down
We have gone far too long living in the shadows
We break into the afternoon when we are leaving
All she said is “be prepared, the night will touch you”
You’re undone
You’re unsung
You are undercover
And You
Life got so complicated
Time blew me away
Blind to the consequences
Fire
Fire away
But you
You bring the blue sky through
And you
With all the things you do
And you
You make me feel renewed
And you
You bring the blue sky through
And you
I, I have contemplated
My, my turning years
You shine
Underneath the red sky
Though I’m blind
Behind these tears
But you
You bring the blue sky through
And you
With all the things you do
And you
You make me feel renewed
And you
You bring the blue sky through
And you
Round and Round
Waiting for my television
Waiting for the air
You’re not lost, you’re where you are
You’re not here, you’re there
Animation override
A tourist on the run
Travel to the best location
But you have to take a gun
Let’s go round and round again
Let’s go round and round
Let’s go round and round again
Let’s go round and round
Breaking up those resolutions
Heading up the stairs
Tracking down these heavy people
But you do not know where
Shining light around every corner
A reckless mass of fools
Run to face their only order;
Instructions to be cruel
Let’s go round and round again
Let’s go round and round
Let’s go round and round again
Let’s go round and round
The Impossible Line
Shrieking violets on a dark summer night
Thirty shadows on a wall
Orange hue against a blackening blue
Nothing matters anymore
Returning darkness overwhelming the world
You are singing in your sleep
Cracked tarmac beneath a blanket of stars
You’re lying next to me
Sail at night
Sail at night
Sail at night
Impossible line
I’m all kinds of crazy
But you don’t know me
You don’t know who I am
I think maybe
She might save me
She could turn this around
I am shaking
Near to breaking
My feet are off the ground
I’m all kinds of crazy
But you don’t know me
You don’t know who I am
The worlds colliding as the ___ drying up
All the windows creaked and groaned
Breaking seams of all the places I’ve been
You are frozen to the bone
Scars etched into the impossible line
The waves conspire to meet the sky
Rising up in the heat of the night
Rising up along the tide
Sail at night
Sail at night
Sail at night
Impossible line
I’m all kinds of crazy
But you don’t know me
You don’t know who I am
I think maybe
She might save me
She could turn this around
I am shaking
Near to breaking
My feet are off the ground
I’m all kinds of crazy
But you don’t know me
You don’t know who I am
I Am Satellite
In the clarity stage
There were changes that I never made
I can’t explain
But I rose from the dead again
I kept myself sane
I worked on holding on
I breathed again
These days were far too long
I can’t explain
Get me up on my feet
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
Get me off of my knees
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
Get me up on my feet
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
Get me off of my knees
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
In the hurricane phase
There were things that I never knew
And everything changed
And the black is folding into blue
Some things remain
I am walking on
I can’t explain
I am anyone
I can’t explain
Get me up on my feet
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
Get me off of my knees
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
Get me up on my feet
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
Get me off of my knees
Take a little life, break a little life
I am Satellite
