Bolt 03:48
Fuel the helo Check the rotor And I believe in you Can you hear me? Lima Charlie And I believe in you We only want to have a good time Flying by wire, we cross the green line We ride fast, they take their sweet time We only want to have a good time Arm the safeties Are you ready?

Colors 03:25
Cyan is, the sparkle in the sky Yellow sun, reflected in your eye Red flows through, the passion in your art Cobalt blue, the wisdom in your heart Issho no toki wa iro nante kankei nai issho no toki wa hachi-bitto de juubun Corazon feathers Dousen no naka wo tobu When we're together subete wa bokura no mono Dark is for, the killer that's inside Light surrounds, the goodness that you hide Purple hearts, are tugging at our sleeve We stole fire, now there's nothing left to thieve When we're together Colors don't matter much to us When we're together 8-bits is enough for us Corazon feathers Flying inside the copper line When we're together They are yours and they are mine

One five seven two eight... Quelques questions D'o viens tu? Marié? Domicile? Ready ready Pas de domicile? Zero zero zero one one Ready Everybody will want words from you And you're the one who couldn't talk They will want promises from you That you will and you will not Pourquoi? Tu t'appelles comment? Il y a tellement de choses que je ne comprendrai jamais Champion? Ou pion?

Set my watch to, your time, my time is slow Tune my strings to, your song, my song is slow And I can't play the six string I'm gonna be a guitar Hero superstar Wherever you are There ain't nothing that I'd rather be doing with you Don't move, too fast, ready, steady, go Don't move, too slow, ready, steady, go Still I can't play the six string I'm gonna be a guitar Hero superstar Wherever you are There ain't nothing that I'd rather be doing with you And I know we'll be all right When it's day, you say good night

Good Fight 05:25
Why, I ask Shotgun blast You're the ghost that lingers In my past You don't know What I've seen My lucky number seven Is thirteen Do you believe? As I believe You earn your reprieve We're gonna fight We're gonna fight The good fight And I'm locked and loaded Sugar coated And I'm ready baby for you You can shoot me down You can take me down But there ain't a grave to keep my body down There ain't a grave to keep my body down Tonight Tonight Do you believe? As I believe You earn your reprieve We're gonna fight We're gonna fight The good fight And I'm locked and loaded Sugar coated And I'm ready baby for you My soul's corroded My heart's exploded And I'm ready baby for you You can shoot me down You can take me down But there ain't a grave to keep my body down There ain't a grave to keep my body down Tonight Hey Red You're gonna end up ahead Every move you make Is what it takes to bring The other side down Hey Blue I'm loving the things you do From the very first time The fight you fight for Will always be mine

In Dublin Town 1842 My blood was born Ready for you Perfect sunrise Early '86 A score and two days You were my fix And I don't own the ocean And I don't own these notes The riches inside me Never need locks Thoughts of your smile That run in my mind Are priceless treasure And a goldmine And I don't own this rain storm And no warmth I can feel But I've got some riches That no one can steal Cause thoughts of your voice That run in my mind Are priceless treasure They are a gold mine I'm not too smart I'm not too dumb I'll care for you are And whom you'll become

Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina In the morning, No one could be sweeter than my sweetie When I meet her in the morning Where the morning glories Twine around the door, Whispering pretty stories I long to hear once more. Strolling with my girlie where the dew is pearly early In the morning, Butterflies all flutter up and kiss each little buttercup at dawning

Have you heard the story of A girl named Beth, now known as Tex Her life's tale is a bloody trail Her name fits like a glove Her daddy sighed as she slammed the door She'd said to him I'm Beth no more My life's dream is to kill for green But first I'll join the Corps Her daddy said, you're just a girl What makes you think that you won't sink My name is Tex and I'm like a hex My playground is the world Basic turned her gun to gold Soon had it made, she'd hit by trade Amassing kills, she proved her skills Make your blood run cold I once saw texas at a bar Sippin rye, with some apple pie With a distant stare, like she didn't care She said what's with the guitar I must admit my lips went numb Some butter bar said, his face all red She's too good, you're driftin wood Said boy you'd better run Texas said sir keep your peace My heart is free, and so is he I'll give it to, any man who's true The safeties were released He drew before he replied But Tex was hot, and he was not He lay dead, While texas bled Crimson on her side Yellow of rose of Texas clad in black Lonely star tattooed upon her back Double Tex, she'll hit you like a truck Double Tex and she'll mess you up Texas said This could be my last I guess I gotta go, and now you know I want a song, to live for long It's a fair request Texas made it out I heard But her one need, I did heed I think of Beth, while mocking death Like a mocking bird

No One 02:48
Where is the one Who will mourn me when I'm gone Who will pour water on my bed of dirt Who will breathe fire on my neck at night I heard someone say There's a chance that I will meet her I could be perse- phone and she demeter To pull me from the underground that I call home Her name is no one... She blinds me with her eyes 'cause she's The one, the one She lives somewhere not here... My lovers are as smooth As a politician's tongue The more I look for goodness The more that I find none I heard someone say, That she's honest and good... Her name is no one no one no one... I measure out my days With sips of a Corona I'm pretty sure she drives An old fucked up Corolla To pull me from the underground That I call home I've a funny feeling There's no chance that I will meet her so I'll measure out my nights To my metronome's meter

Roses are red And violets are blue. One day we'll cruise down Blood Gulch avenue It's red versus red and blue versus blue It's I against I and me against you Violets are blue, roses are red Living like this we were already dead Hop in my car It don't have any doors It's built like a cat It lands on all fours My car's like a puma It drives on all fours Red versus red Blue versus blue

Gun metal green Prettiest that I've seen I've nothing to hide And you've nothing to hide I'd trust you at the wheel, Even if we're going down Our love is made of steel Last us 'til the underground Steady and surreal, In a world of lost and found Took out the trash Paid my bills all in cash Nothing to hide And it's summer outside I'd trust you at the wheel, Even if we're going down Our love is made of steel Last us til the underground Steady and surreal, In a world of lost and found Trust you at the wheel, Know you'll keep us safe and sound We don't need a key We were already free Cruising along To a mexican song

Half Life 04:38
In love, in need, in want, in miss I taste your bite, I taste your kiss And I think back, the things you said They make me mad, a bull to red And I wonder where you are And I wonder what you wore And I'm lost inside a bar And I'm drunk inside a war... Drinking Martinis by myself On a Sunday Drinking Martinis again On a Monday It's a half life... I buy your brand, I smoke your brand I count the what ifs on one hand... Drinking Martinis alone Sunday morning Drinking Martinis again Sunday evening

After the suns, are done setting After the hills, are done rolling These silvery clouds, have no lining Can't find my way, but I'm trying And I know Thoughts of you don't fade away They just grow, getting stronger every day Now I feel the rush It fucks me up When I think about you When I think about That time the birds, finished singing After the grass, was done fading I've waited so long for, a homecoming Waited so hard, I'm done waiting But I know Thoughts of you don't fade away They just grow, getting stronger every day Now I feel the rush It fucks me up When I think about you

Wing to Wing 03:35
68 and the sun is out Sky is clear All we're really doing is cruising. In this town we'll never leave We don't care Waiting by Lakeshore Drive And we heard their engines sing As they flew a perfect line On their own freeway when they're wing to wing When the angels fly Our beer is cold and our skin is warm Take our time All we're really doing is boozing In this town we'll never leave We don't care Going for a power dive And we heard their engines sing As they flew a perfect line On their own freeway when they're wing to wing When the angels fly And we heard their engines sing As they flew a perfect line On their own freeway when they're wing to wing When the angels fly

Trocadero Seattle, Washington
