Star Dust

We keep on climbing higher
we'll push through the dark and dire
I don't mind if it's all a lie,
as long as we survive
We made a promise
we swore to always lead the fight
in your honor
in spite of all who will stand in our way
we'll take our chances
and use all our luck until luck has run out
we've got time on our side
nothing is out of reach for us
we keep on running faster
we'll push through each new disaster
I don't mind if it's all a lie
as long as we survive
We keep on climbing higher
we'll push through the dark and dire
we don't care if it's all a lie
as long as we survive

Captain Milo

To advance the human race
searching for the answers deep in outer space
captain milo to ground control
all my checks are good, all systems are a go
T-minus 3, 2, 1
we have ignition!
Captain Milo
born to boldly go
first to walk on the sun
he's our man for the mission
flipping switches, checking dials
his rocket ship has travelled 50,000 miles
Captain Milo it's your turn
we're all watching from back home on planet Earth
No matter how far you go
you can always come back home
Captain Milo
born to boldly go
first to walk on the sun
he's our man for the mission
Milo, float on
take your protein pills, put your helmet on
Milo, float on
you really made the grade, turn your engines on
As he flies around the moon
Milo's suddenly back in his own bedroom
looking up at all the stars
knowing someday he'll be out there where they are
Captain Milo
born to boldly go
first to walk on the sun
he's our man for the mission

Little Man
03:50
|

Little Man when I was your age
I was top of my game at the back of the class
spending all my time drawing little green men with flying machines
I used to love to watch the grass grow
I was always someone going nowhere far
walking uphill both ways but counting every second just to make it last
And you remind me so much
of my younger self
I can't wait to show you everything
Little man it's you and me
we'll go across the galaxy
we'll take all the time we need
Little man when I was your age
I was waiting for snow on the 4th of July
spending all my cash buying silly little tickets at the back of the line
And you remind me so much
of my younger self
I can't wait to show you everything
Little man it's you and me
we'll go across the galaxy
we'll take all the time we need
And if you knew me back then
I'm sure we would've been best friends
together 'till the end
Little man one day you'll see
you've grown up big and strong like me
and I'll have nothing left to teach
Little man when I was your age
growing up was never really part of the plan
spending all my life hoping that I could learn to fix it from somebody who can
and I can sit and watch the paint dry
making friends with little patterns on the wall
talking to myself in a made up language that no one understands
And you remind me so much
of my younger self
I can't wait to show you everything
Little steps one at a time
a giant leap for humankind
no one can like you and I

Lonely At The Top
03:27
|
|||
I pushed the king off the hill
we made a deal but still
I had a chip on my shoulder
I saw you wave a white flag
and I'm too humble to brag
so I'll accept your surrender
This palace suits me well
if you don't like it you can all just go to hell
oh yeah
My hands are shaking
oh god what have I done?
my heart is racing
'cause this burden weighs a ton
and my voice is straining
someone out there hear my SOS
before the world opens up and swallows me with all the rest
it's lonely up at the top
but I don't think I could stop
I'm drunk from all the attention
not going down with the ship
I'd rather pack up and split
but I can still be your martyr
This golden crown is swell
think I should take it with me when I go to hell
oh yeah
My hands are shaking
oh god what have I done?
my heart is racing
'cause this burden weighs a ton
and my voice is straining
someone out there hear my SOS
before the world opens up and swallows me with all the rest
I'll always
take the low road
I'll show no mercy from the throne
I'll never
take the high road
I'll show no mercy
My hands are shaking
and my heart is aching
And I would give it all away
for someone to take my place
and show me how it's done
cause it's lonely at the end
I wish I had more friends
to take me by the hand
and show me how to stand
so I can step all over them again

Blood Moon
02:45
|
|||
Blood moon is looming above the sky tonight
My room is drowned in the mesmerizing light
it's very hard to find love
a very certain kind
but when the blood moon shines above
blood moon please show me a way to ease my pain
resolve me so I don't feel this way again
it's very hard to find love
a very certain kind
but when the blood moon shines above
Blood moon is sinking as sunlight fills the sky
so soon it left and I had to say goodbye

Sign Of The Times
04:07
|
|||
I know this night won't last forever
'cause every morning comes too soon
but when the moments start to linger
I know what you said must be true
the world is turning so slow
but don't blink, don't let it go
it's gone before you know
watch the circle unwind
forgiving heartbreaks and crimes
a sign of the times
I made an effort not to worry
about the things I can't control
but time away from paranoia
just feels like I'm on parole
the world is turning so slow
but don't blink, don't let it go
it's gone before you know
watch the circle unwind
forgiving heartbreaks and crimes
a sign of the times
I'm making changes for the better
so I don't look back in regret
I know this night won't last forever
so make it one I won't forget
the world is turning so slow
but don't blink, don't let it go
it's gone before you know
watch the circle unwind
forgiving heartbreaks and crimes
a sign of the times
a sign of the times
a sign of the times
a sign of the times
a sign of the times

Every Morning
02:57
|
|||
no bad news
fill these shoes
'cause we wanted to
just like we always do
every morning
without warning
we're all cast out to the sea
dig the ditch
filthy rich
but we need a fix
always down in the sticks
every morning
without warning
we'll all thrown into the sun
far from home
throwing stones
'till they break the bones
we're out here on our own
every morning
with no warning
we're just cast off to the side
but we won't abide, no more!
I won't step aside
I won't step aside
no more
no more!

Payout
04:02
|
|||
time is money and you're spending all my dollars and patience
don't play games with me I'm just here to collect on your interest
gold in the desert needs to be found
run from your loans and you can't pay them down
Rollout
collecting debts overdue
look out
we'll trample right over you
way down
we're taking blood from the stone
payout
we drink it all till it's gone, all gone
I'll meet you eye to eye but first you gotta get on my level
if you can't pay the man then why'd you sell your soul to the devil
just clear your ledger and we'll never have a dispute to settle
lost an investment never returned
Rollout
collecting debts overdue
look out
we'll trample right over you
way down
we're taking blood from the stone
payout
we drink it all till it's gone, all gone
gold in the desert turning to rust
cash burns to ashes, just as we must
but this crooked world keeps turning even if it's gone bankrupt
Rollout
collecting debts overdue
look out
we'll trample right over you
way down
collecting blood from the stone
payout
we take it all till it's gone, all gone
rollout
way down

Controversy
04:19
|

did you hear the news?
where do you stand on the issue?
what if it was you?
could you walk a mile in those shoes?
yeah
well make up your mind in a hurry
(make up your mind)
'cause everybody loves a controversy
But I'm not the villain
and I'm not the good guy
and for the last time I'm not on your side
did you find your place
on the two sides of the same face?
did you quit the race?
was it worth the time you wasted?
well make up your mind in a hurry
(make up your mind)
'cause everybody loves a controversy
But I'm not the villain
and I'm not the good guy
and for the last time I'm not on your side
what if everybody knew?
would it change your mind if they were one of you?
could you find the strength to choose
with not a thing to gain and everything to lose
well I've been on that side, and I don't want to die
I'd rather let my heart decide
did you hear the news?
where do you stand on the issue?
well make up your mind in a hurry
(make up your mind)
'cause everybody loves a controversy
But I'm not the villain
and I'm not the good guy
and for the last time I'm not on your side
I'm not on your side
I'm not on your side
I'm not on your side
I'm not on your side

Don't Meet Your Heroes
04:00
|

Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what they're always saying to me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down
ever since they were young they never need someone to fight their battles for them
and ever since they could stand they had their back to the man who said they couldn't cut it
but all the stories seem stranger than fiction
of all the glory and all the conviction
give me hope for a life that I could never afford
but they seem so far away
So Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what they're always telling me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down
All I wanted to say was you're the reason I stay
but you just wouldn't hear it (Wouldn't hear it)
and all I wanted to do was be somebody like you
but you just broke my spirit (broke my spirit)
so all the stories I heard were just fiction
you're not the hero I saw in my vision
how could someone so cruel but the one we adore?
So Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what they're always telling me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down
How could they save you? oh
They're just people too, just like me and you
What do they owe you? oh
They're just people too, just like me and you
just like me and you
So Don't Meet Your Heroes
is what everybody says to me
don't meet your heroes
'cause they're never who you want them to be
if I could meet my heroes
they probably wouldn't want me around
so I won't meet my heroes
and they can never let me down

Swing For The Fences
05:21
|
|||
Hey kid, swing for the fences
you learned the hardest lesson,
you're not invincible
remember when everyone was counting on you?
And you just let them down
did you savor the feeling of failure?
What about when you gave up halfway through?
and everyone went home without you
did you feel like a hero?
So I said, swing for the fences!
you'll learn the hardest lessons
you're not invincible
Did you think you had everything planned just right?
you were ready to seize the day
it didn't matter what they had to say about it
but then it all fell apart when you flew too high
and tried to take the crown
did you get a bit bent out of shape about it?
So I said, swing for the fences!
you'll learn the hardest lessons
you're not invincible
but I could go all the way...
I crawled all the way back down
Broke both my hands on your door
I hope god don't see what I've done
lock me away so I don't run
Hey kid, swing for the fences
you learned the hardest lesson
you're not invincible
So I said (so I said)
swing for the fences (swing for the fences)
