HIGH LIFE

If you want, if you will, you know I'm good for it
If you want, if you will, you know I'm all about it
See, I've been waiting patiently to catch a falling star
Now here you are, I want you

Are you ready for the high life?
For things to go our way
Are you ready for the big time?
Turn night into day
Are you ready for the high life?
For things to go our way
Are you on?
'Cause I'm on

We'll take a car to the West End to catch a Broadway show
Call ahead to book our table
We'll find a place to go
Or if you're feeling wildern, yeah
We'll find a plot to talk 'bout situations
About temptations

Are you ready for the big time?
Turn night into day
Are you ready for the high life?
For things to go our way
Are you on?
'Cause I'm on

You were a lifeline in this darkest time
You pick me up, you spun me 'round
You got me back in line (come on)
You were a lifeline in this darkest time
You better believe it
But there ain't no getting over it
(Ain't no getting over it)
There ain't no going under it
(Ain't no stepping over it)
There ain't no tripping over it
(Ain't no getting used to it)
There ain't no use going around it
(Ain't no getting over it)

You're such a flirt
You're such a flirt
You're doing too much
You're such a flirt
(flirt, flirt)
And you're doing too much
You're doing too much

Are you ready for the high life?
Are you ready for the big time?
Are you ready for the high life?
For things to go our way
Are you on?
'Cause I'm on

'Cause I'm on
(Are you?)
'Cause I'm on
(Are you?)
'Cause I'm on
(Are you?)
'Cause I'm on
(Are you?)

KEEP IT ROLLING

So was it worth it, kissing the toad?
I wanna know
I wanna know
Did it come through, your miracle?
I wanna know
I gotta know
Now we can fake this now
(Fake this now)
We can repeat this loud
(Repeat this loud)
Thought we would live in clouds
(Live in clouds)
Guess we will live in clouds

So much travel
So much tone
Spikes in tires
On our own

Can you keep this rolling?
(I know)
Can you keep this rolling?
(I'm not gonna hate it)
Can you keep this rolling?
(Play more records)
Can you keep this rolling?
(Let's just play through)

Let me help

It's history fuel
Language we've pioneered
Eager choir of troops
Humming into my ear
So what I'm trying to say is
(Trying to say is)
After working the grave shift
(Still have no takers)
Our mission is tainted
Our life choices
(All downhill, downhill from here)

So much travel
So much tone
Spikes in tires
On our own

Can you keep this rolling?
(I know)
Can you keep this rolling?
(I'm not gonna hate it)
Can you keep this rolling?
(Play more records)
Can you keep this rolling?
(Let's just play through)

Let me help
Let me

But I don't care anymore if you
Go away
Don't break
Your fate
Just take
Your shame
Your shame

So was it worth it?
Don't know what was worth it

BLUE

Blue, it was lagoon blue
Your 57 Ford Anglia
You picked me up in it
Your horned rimmed glasses get in the way
So we do air kisses
Let me breathe you in

In the time it takes for two ticks to go blue
It seems I’m smitten
It seems I’m into you
He does it on purpose
He wants to make me wait
I could wait a lifetime for him

He says he likes the way I say his name
And I like the way he says mine

I choose you with grace
I choose you with sensitivity
I choose to reveal
Day after day

It was blue
Cerulean blue

We watch the tankers fade from our view
He asks nothing of me
I ask of nothing of him
Let the shore we walk on guide us

He says he likes the way I sigh
When his hand brushes against mine

I choose you with grace
I choose you with sensitivity
I choose to reveal
Day after day
I choose you with love
I choose you with hunger in my heart
I choose you today and all of the days

And if you feel overwhelmed
If your prone to doubt
To apprehend
Take my hand
Run with me
Let's feel the blood in our cheeks

This break of routine has shown me how great these days can be
It’s made me forget everything
This day by your side has shown me how sweet this world can be
You've made me forget everything

If I could just steal these hours from days
To feel you with you in every way
And I feel right by your side

The night descends so we head in
To watch a Japanese animation
I fall asleep on your sleeve
With those three word
In my dreams

THE BLOOD MOON

At first I don't see it
I only hear it
Like the beating of our heart
Under the floorboards, torn apart
I run but it's faster
It's toying with me
Walked in this cursed city
Lead to the same place
It seems

Fate
It's a dangerous game on a dangerous land
Fate
A lane you can't escape

The fear in me rises, rises through my skin
It can feel which way I'm headed
It can sense what I'm thinking

Everything I've known
Everything I've worked for is slipping through my reach
Feelings that I've had
Feelings that I've never had
I can't control it
Everything I've ever known
(Been taken by the moon)
(Taken by the blood moon)
Everything I've ever known
(Been taken by the moon)
(Taken by the blood moon)

It has me in its grip
I am intoxicated
Rising through the night
And it has taken me on to it
I cannot resist this
The battle in me gone
I give myself over
Let the victor claim the spoils

The blood moon and its stars disappear behind his eyes
And I cannot fathom why this moment feels like home
