Lyrics, Demo 2009

1. The Ocean

The ocean
Magnificent
I feel like
Goin for a swim
Dark plunge down
Soon I'm gliding with a manta ray
No need for air 
Gonna spend my day
Down in the ocean

Suddenly I lie awake
I'm wide awake
I left it up to you
Not by mistake
I'm wide awake
And I lie awake in my bed
Seventy colors in my head

Commotion
Something to avoid
I feel like 
That
Traffic jam
And I gotta get away
Is that a green light or red
They all look the same 
Up in this commotion

Suddenly I lie awake
I'm wide awake
I left it up to you
Not by mistake
I'm wide awake
And I lie awake in my bed
So many colors in my head
All of them there except red
I lie awake in my bed
 
Traffic jam
And I gotta get away
Is that a green light or red
They all look the same 
I would live aquatically 
In my dream 
In my dream
The ocean

Suddenly I lie awake
I'm wide awake
I left it up to you
Not by mistake
I'm wide awake

2. The Tally

I woke
To sunshine
This morning
On my head
But I felt cold
I walked
Through gardens
Of flowers
But still
I grow old
I know
A wolf
In sheep's clothing
Is trouble
Through and through
I know
That trouble
May be
Hard to see
Escape the view

Now that it's gone, lady
The thrill and the fun, the tally
Of times we have won
Cheating death
Now that it's gone

Summer
Electric blue
A stroll
Down the avenue
Not a cloud
To touch the sky
Yet for a reason
I wonder why
In the passage of time
All that is yours
And all that is mine
Decays like a leaf
Unheard
And not seen
Renewing again
No one knows
What it's been
It's lonely

Now that it's gone, lady
The thrill and the fun, the tally
Of times we have won
Cheating death
Now that it's gone
