3. Lucky Animals

Animal, animal, am I lucky
Animal, animal, am I lucky
Animal, animal, am I lucky
How do you know of your animal soul?
How do you know?
We never will know

Animals, animals, and we're lucky
Animals, animals, and we're lucky

Stone-cold mojo,
What are we feeling right now?

4. Liberation

Man turns animal for the erotic pleasures of women and men

One minute away from you,
One minute away from being like you!
One minute away from you,
One minute here with my good eye closed!

Only takes a minute 'til the morning comes and we are re-opposed!

When did it appear to you?
Since when did we appeal to the fallen goals?
How do we imagine you?
Where will you fit when I'm gone?

So I'm ready to stick, I'm right in the thick!
It can only get bitter or better!

Rock, let's rock!
The time has come to forget all about you and rock!
Rock, let's rock!
The time has come to forget all about it and rock!
Rock, let's rock!
The time has come to forget all about you and rock!
Let's rock!

So running away from you is just a little girl,
The one who's daddy went away!
And you're no stranger to the problems of the world,
Just let the woman lead the way!

Rock, let's rock!
The time has come to forget all the bullshit and rock!
Rock, let's rock!
The time has come to forget all about it and rock!
Rock, let's rock!
The time has come to forget all about you and rock!
Let's rock!
Rock, let's rock!
Rock, let's rock!

Let it out!

5. Where We Belong

Come away... soon we will
Come away... hearts grow fonder
I know what it's there for
I know what it's worth
I know what it's there for
I know what it's worth

Soon we will belong
Summer's coming, now we're coming
Back where we belong
Soon she's coming, back where we belong

Come away... soon we will
Come away... hearts drive on
I know what it's there for (soothe me carefully)
I know what it's worth!

Soon we will belong
Summer's coming, now we're coming
Back where we belong
Soon she's coming, back where we belong

Soon we will be strong
Summer's coming, now she's coming
Back where we belong
Soon we're coming, back where we,
Oh, back where we belong.

Back where we belong.

6. Save Our Now

I fall apart,
I call her out.
I follow her!
I'm calling her!

Happy now? (For me?)
Happy now? (Happy now!)
We shouldn't be awake, we shouldn't be awake.
But I am! (I am!)

Save our now!
But are we happy now? ...for me?
Happy now?
Save our—, save our—, save our now!

I fall away,
I call at the world.
I fall alone.
I call alone.

Happy now? (For me?)
Happy now? (Happy now!)
We shouldn't be awake, we shouldn't be awake.
But I am! (I am!)

Save our now!
But are we happy now? ...for me?
Happy now?
Save our—, save our—, save our now!

I'll never know if the wander in the wilderness is all I've ever wanted and is all I've ever known!
Are we crying now?

7. Kingdom

I, I wonder why
I wonder why I've come undone
I've come undone

Stay with me lord
Play with me

OK, I know, I missed it
The point I mean, I missed it so
(And could I know?)
And if I could
(Would change it all)
Good God, I would

Stay with me lord
Play with me

Now I've seen the way I'm headed
Down and down, the youth descended
Have it here and without worry
Baby please, there is no worry

I'm fine!
Stay with me lord
Play with me
Stay with me lord
Play with me

Ego. It's only a song…

Fire it up!

We are the word, we are the one!
We are forever debted to you, so I know you'll come!

Now I see the way I'm headed
Down and down, the truth descended
Hell is here, but it has no fury
Woman still, there is no worry
I'm fine!

Stay with me lord!
Play with me!
Stay with me lord!
Play with me!
Stay with me lord!
Play with me!
Stay with me lord!
Play with me!

8. Divine

Loving you is the best thing and the worst thing in my life.
Loving you is entire.
And loving you is the one thing that I need right now.

Center the morning light where the world's so bright and high.
Where even the gods outside can wait a moment guy.

And loving you is entire.

Loving you is the best thing and the worst thing in my life.
Loving you is entire.
Loving you in the morning is a warning.

Say we will wallow away in a world so wild and high.
Stay 'til the morning and that world just might get by.

'Cause loving you is divine!

If only the morning would come and the world would be old and wise!
Love in the morning with this halo all one size.
'Cause even the gods outside can wait a moment guy.

Loving you is divine!

9. Grace

We know that it's only human
We know that it's only love
We know that its far too close to home
To see it now

Love all we can before
We learn all we came for
Learn all we can before
The road leads to home

Grace, grace, grace, grace

High road warning
High road warning

Grace, grace
(Say no more!)

High road warning
High road warning

Laugh, love, live, learn
Laugh, love, live, learn

Eternal I, eternal I, eternal I, I, I

My child tells me
We are the fallen men
My child tells me
We are the fallen men

Laugh, love, live, learn
Laugh, love, live, learn

Eternal I, eternal I, eternal I, I, I

Oh my God

Grace, grace, grace, grace

Never fear love
(High)
Never fear love
(Road)
Never fear love
(Warning)

(Warning)

We know that it's only human
We know that it's only love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love
Love all we can

I know the way and you know the way
We all fall down if we fear love

Never fear love
Never fear love
Never fear love
(Warning)

Never fear love
Never fear love
Never fear love
(Warning)

10. More!

Gimme more!

Tell me are you ready, soul of mine?
...Going to be ready?!
We pay no mind, pay no mind!

Honey are you ready?
Roll the die...
Crown and Coke are ready;
...Just steady the mind, stay in line!

Jesus is-a-coming and he wants more!
Jesus isn't coming and he wants more!
Everything is coming and we want more, we say:

More more more more!

Summon all the ready criminal minds.
Heavy, but they're ready,
We'll save the mind, stay in line.
Probably they're running on your property line...
Pocket 'til you're ready;
...Well I better take what's mine, save what's mine!

Jesus is-a-coming and he wants more!
Homeless are-a-coming and they want more!

More more more more! (gimme more!)
More more more more! (gimme more!)

Souls may cry all inside your mind.
What we fake, is what you take!

Lighting the fire, I know... to war we ride!

Whoa!

Take a little money and we want more!
Have a little money and he wants more!
Everything is money and we want more, we say:

More more more more!

Salesmen are-a-coming and they want more!
Christmas is-a-coming and kids want more!
Armageddon is-a-coming and we want more, we say:

More more more more! (gimme more!)
More more more more! (gimme more!)
More more more more! (gimme more!)
More more more more! (gimme more!)

Perhaps what we want in life is not what we need.

Stay calm afraid.
Stay warm away.
Say "God" again
Stay calm, my friend.

Say, tomorrow you'll capture me the mirror.
Please just let this boy go home.

Yes, it's you.

Hear what I'm saying?

Hearts bleed, we want to be free!

Yes, it's true my love grows

I'll wait through the hardest kind of pain!

Cry from under, cry in time.
Say on and on hard enough.

Save my heart tomorrow...
Save my heart tomorrow...

Holding you, love it goes astray...
I went through the hardest kind of pain,

Cry from under, my angel,
Cry in time
Say on and on hard enough!

So you will know by the light,
Your hands and all that they write.
Take comfort in knowing your fears are gone.
Fears be gone, I believe in love!

And everyone into forever,
Everything a part of me,
Dancing all into whatever.
Effervescent quality!

Well, heatwave can't wait on the getaway
They hit me with the honey
Canada, I want to go home
But I gotta keep rollin'

So I honk-tonk prattle-on
Hit 'em with a coffee bomb
Boys gotta make a happy home
So let's keep rollin'

Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin' now
Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin'
It's time distilled in me

Well, I swing through a capillary
Got some trouble with the down-town fellas
While heading for the money hole.
Better keep rollin'

So I sink our money in a little rock and roll
Try to keep checking when it's quittin' time
I wanna go home
Go so slow.

Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin' now
Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin'
It's time distilled in me

Well it's all the stars won't fall on me
Time keeps rollin' on

Well tell it to the king
I'm wanna be headin' home to Canada
A little bit o' sugar for the honey all alone
I'm on the road

And I hate to have to tell it
So I'm never gonna tell it
Hypocrite'll tell ya that
You're better off to take it all home
But you gotta keep rollin'

Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin' and
Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin' now
Sweet mornin' rain
On the freeway
In the evenin'
It's time distilled in me

Can only walk the line

25. Take My Ego (Demo)

[iTunes Bonus Track]

Sunday morning
So, you arrive
Slowly this morning
Time goes by

Take my ego
So, you arrive
Silent mornings and solemn days are killing me

So, take my ego
Take my heart
Take my ego
Let it out

Cry in the morning
Cry at night
Crown is only
Worn in the night
Why in the world would we lock in the night?
Crawl in the morn, then to mourn and block out the night

Take my ego
Take my heart
Take my ego
Let it go
So many people
So many hearts
Cry at night so where you ride
Just let me go

I, I know that the words do come
We should let them flow
Now, I find in a world unkind
I just want my baby, baby, baby

Take my ego
Take my heart
Take my ego
Let it go
So many people
So many hearts
Cry at night so where you ride
Just let me go

Take my ego
Take my heart
Take my ego
Let it go
So many people
So many hearts
Cry in the night so where you ride
Just let me go
Just let it go
Just let me go
Just let it go
Just let it go
Just let it go

26. Epicloud

[Japanese And Vinyl Editions Bonus Track]

Go and know the waterfall of time
Take a minute of your precious time
Glowing in radiant lines
Oceans of radiant lives...
But you're mine
You're mine!

All the world is rolling on in time
Takes a toll on all our waiting minds
Go away until the planets are aligned?
Just go and take your moment 'til you're fine
In time... in time!

Don't speak a word, remember what you've heard and all our lives
All our lives
Don't speak a word, remember what you've heard and all...

Go now with your fallen, crumbling vine
See now how the righteous closes open minds
Ah now, fall with them?
Because heaven knows you'll try until you'll win.
But try!
You might find

Heaven is the madness in our minds
'Cause heaven isn't silent all the time
I'll be there waiting in line.
