1. Unity
Life, it's all life
It's all alive
It's alright now
We're home
Home, home, home...
Light, it's all light
It's all lies
It's a life
It's all right, now we're home
2. Seventh Wave
Running away, running away
Running away forever
It was her only chance of finding home
Running away, running away
Running away together...
With only thoughts of finding home
I'll wait for the ocean to rise up
And meet me as it rose up before
(I'll know the time)
I'll wait for the ocean to rise up
And greet me as it rose up before
(I'll know the year)
Because you're never alone
...Even when you're alone
You're never alone...
Watch the seventh wave
Running away, running away
Running into the weather
With only thoughts of finding home
Running away, running away
Running away forever
I realize I'm on my own
On my way pass it on
On my way pass it on
I'll wait for the ocean to rise up
And meet me as it rose up before
(I'll know the time)
I'll wait for the ocean to rise up
And greet me as it rose up before
We're never alone
Even when you're alone
We're never alone... watch the ocean
3. Regulator
I'm regulated
I'm regulated
...Odd times and all
Odd times and all
Regulator, no meantime at all
Time won't wait for me
4. Truth
I warned you
Hallelujah
Hello... it's back
5. War
In the morning 'bout three or so
Can't stop thinking about what I know
In the morning 'bout three or so
Can't stop thinking of the universe
I keep rocking, I keep rolling
Trade in the minute for a minute that isn't there
Keep dropping, keep rolling
Put out the fire with the water
Thinking creosote
I the morning with a beat up bud I know
I can't fight a war without losing blood
In the morning 'bout three or so
Can't stop seeking what I need to know
God is in the mountain as is in the rock
And god is not concerned about keeping stock
So keep rocking, keep rolling
Trade in the minute for a minute that isn't there
Keep dropping, keep rolling
Put out the fire with the water
Thinking creosote
All he ever wanted was to be alone
But you can't feel love without being loved!!
(Can't fight a war without losing blood)
(Blood... Blood... Blood...)
All we ever wanted was love
Love! (doo wop boddum... doo wapideewapideewapideedoo...)
We can see the enemy, they say...
Hey! we don't want your war!
It's quite nice, white light, it's quite, it's quite extraordinary!
Window! It's a window! It's white! It's quite... quite...
God, quiet! Just a little bit of quiet please!
Just stop the noise for once... please!!
6. Bad Devil
I wanna know what you all
Had for dinner
I wanna watch the rodeo
I wanna big city boy
Be a man, not a boy
I'm gonna meet you on down
Beside the bayou
I wanna be in your little friend
I wanna live in your underpants
I wanna big city boy
Be a man, not a boy
I'm gonna meet you on down beside the bayou
And we'll see how it feels when it's over
And we'll see how it feels when I'm older
'Cause it's all just a waste of time
So enjoy what's on my mind
(Someone should have said)
Train won't stop
Never gonna stop
And it's coming back to carry me back home
Leave me alone
With no where to go
And ride that wind back home...
Bad devil
Bad double-decker devil
Cry for me baby
Lie for me baby
Lay down before me baby
And ride that wind back home
Bad devil
And I've seen how I'll feel when it's over
And I've seen how I'll feel when I'm older
And it's not just a waste of time
So enjoy what's on my mind
7. Christeen
Running, beyond the speed of sound
Calling, beyond the speed of sound
Say you love me, say you love yourself
Say you need me, say you care
Say you want me, say you want yourself
Say you want to be with me well
Christeen, that's all I ask of you
Falling, into the open doorway
Loving, what anyone else would loathe here...
Say you're with me, say you're with yourself
Say you're lonely, say you care
Say you warned me, say you warned yourself
Say you want to be with me well
Christeen, that's all I ask of you
Are you feeling okay?
Are you feeling so much pain
That never goes away
Oh, we know, and we're feeling so much better than before
What's more, is that feeling isn't failing anymore...
8. Hide Nowhere
Cold blue waves
Cold dead sky
See in the sea what I need to be
Cold blue waves
Cold blue mind... (hear them talk about)
Cold dead mind
See in the sea what is and what will be
Every dream I have wants me to stay
Every night I try to find a way
I hide nowhere
They hide in my world
I have nowhere to go
Dreams come as they...
Sleep comes as it...
Dreams come as they do
9. Detox
10. Fake Punk
This here's a song about the things you don't find in nature
This here's a tale about conditions of the head
At one time I wanted to expand my education but
Now I'll make more money if I dye my hair instead.
'Cause I've gotta be more punk, and forget about writing love songs
And even though I'm a middle class white Canadian
God knows I've been done wrong
'Cause I'm a fake punk! I'm a fake punk!
I'll even use a dirty word, I'll even write a mean song,
I'll even take a mean picture
'Cause I've got the hair for it!
I've always tried to dig myself out of the sewer
I've always strived to be a little bit more well-read
But oh no! Here comes that rock press interviewer so,
I'll just look real tough and say fuck a lot instead
I'd be alright if I could just hang out with my girlfriend
I'd be just fine if they would close down all the bars
And maybe one day I'll join a protest against smoking
But when it comes to sincere angst you can just
Leave me the fuck alone!
11. Oh my Fucking God
12. Sister (Acoustic)
13. Hide Nowhere (Acoustic)
Cold blue waves
Cold dead sky
See in the sea what I need to be
Cold blue waves
Cold blue mind... (hear them talk about)
Cold dead mind
See in the sea what is and what will be
Every dream I have wants me to stay
Every night I try to find a way
I hide nowhere
They hide in my world
I have nowhere to go
Dreams come as they...
Sleep comes as it...
Dreams come as they do
14. Colonial Boy (Acoustic)
If you ever need a friend in me
...ever need a friendly deed
Please don't ever let me
Slip away
What I'll miss in the travesty
Is easier than it needs to be
Please don't ever let me slip away
Because it's cold in the fantasy
I'd do or say anything
Sell me, tell me, I'm wild
(I'm wild)
As I am in the fantasy
I'll do or say anything
I dance for thee 'cause we
All enjoy a wild colonial boy
-Cats- Time! Time!
Paddington, Paddington
That's the saviour
Awe saw sale ya!
Watch the boy he feels it all
Watch the boy he heals it all
