Khandi Kids
I crave the lights, the colors of neon green
All ready to go
Well I'm gonna show you
How do dance your anguish away
How to dance your pain away tonight
That's not the way we dance around here no more
Bringin' back the sounds from 1984
We go out to move 'till next mornin's light
'Till next mornin's light
Movin' from one club onto the next
Oh those khandi kids, all ready to go
The way you shake your hips
The way you move your hypnotizing me
Lets make this feeling last us all night
That's not the way we dance around here no more
I liked the way you moved, just like before
Underground sounds of new wave progress
Are bringin' back the sounds from 1984
Wait and Dream EP
Thoughts That Crossed a Mind
C'mon now, is it shiny?
You're making this way too hard
I liked it when you called it straight
I liked it when you called it home
And it was cold
And it was warm
You're going to fast now
You're changing it too soon
I'm stranded here, in a vessel
We really can't see that far
You've got it now, so why don't you go
I told you so, I told you so
I think I've got it
I know I have
The Shuffle Rule
Last time I heard, he was going down the freeway
Flame in your hand, don't let it get to your head
I've seen them fall over a hundred times before
How can I pretend that I don't comprehend
Shooting stars on top
Moving fast won't stop
But I just wanted to let you know
That I'll always be around
And I won't let you go down
No I won't let you go down
Driving in your car, you won't get very far
But I think I've got to show
The process again and again
Repeat it once more
But hold on, I warned you don't be going into town
You'll find these people walkin' all around
They'll only tell you things you want to hear
Images, thoughts full of desire
Is it for the pleasure or for the pain
I call it a breakdown when you're washed out
But I'll make things clear
Pididdle
I think I'm wasting my time, but there's no place like Chicago
Bright lights, the music It's fine
Well I think I'm just wasting my time
I've seen it come from above
Stay close, It's shine disappearing
Last time you said, "unappealing"
Every single night, every single day, I just say
Never really wanted to play, and I said
Let's sit down and think a while, and I said
Remember the darkened blue?
Oh it was just you
The things I wasn't telling true
Well I think I'm wasting my time, but there's no time like the summer
Oh yeah, the parties are fine
Oh but it wanted to be mine
Liking to speak, check the breathing
I find it best with the feeling
Cold air feels like, inside healing
I think I'm wasting my time, but there's no place like Chicago
Bright lights, the music It's fine
Well I think I'm just wasting my time
Oh only seconds are left
I'm heading straight for the exit
Oh but I'll, I'll be just fine
Melodic
Wait, I've heard you say that once before
Shake, the way the body moves the soul
Caress, I like the feeling burns a hole
Regrets, should I have done it once or more?
Melodic revisions, the dark night it sees it
There's people who hear it, but little who speak it
The words are all crying, I know it I'm trying
Work, dance, shake
Diamonds, they are a girls worst friend
Questions, oh pretty soon they'll tear us a part
Patience, just wait and they'll come
The colors, I know it's true I've seen such few
Work, dance, shake
Dream Music
A bird flies by as the pendulum swings
The tick-tock of the clock is gone
You seem so far away from here
Yet you're really just sitting right next to me
Oh yeah you're sitting right next to me
But I've got time to work it out
Yes I've got time to think more clearly
But I've to time to work it out
And the tick-tock of the clock is gone my dear
The street light's shining above your head
I'm starting to think I'm really not me
You seem so far away from here
Yet you're really just laying right next to me
Oh yeah you're laying right next to me

Two Ups
Waking up
Fresh air in my face
I had a story
Ended up in this place
Hope for a better life grows deep in my soul
Just close your eyes, and I'll show you
Showing compassion we will never be alone
Encouragement, reveals the unknown
Express good judgment and don't let things go astray
I will be optimistic, It'll be ok
If I try hard many things will go my way
But may I correct you
'Cause honestly I'll see it through
A little love and courage will take me far
Will take me far away from misfortune
Will I be bold enough to take that chance?
I will stand up and I won't let it disappear
The sky's so clear
Everyone stares, I don't feel any shame
I'm just a man that has little left to share
All I can give is my friendship, love and care
Show me respect and I'll show it back to you
Won't let you down, just know that it's the truth
I'll let me actions shape my identity
I will try hard It's my responsibility
Sunlight will shine and forever set me free
The sky's so clear
