High in the sky and I’m shining down on you
High in the sky and I’m falling down on you
High in the sky and I’m whispering your name
High in the sky and you'll never be the same
Here on the ground and you’re trying not to fall
Here on the ground and you start to hear my call
Here on the ground and you feel their disdain
Here on the ground playing in the falling rain
And I want to fly keep my feet up off the ground
And I want to fly, and I’ll fly
Deep down below and you're swimming in my tears
Deep down below and you're bathing in my fears
Deep down below and you fight for every breath
Deep down below and I'll save you from yourself
And I want to dive, sink into the depths below
And I want to dive, and I’ll dive
And you feel like you're alone
Even though you have grown
All the seeds that you have sewn
In the darkness of your mind
Is the darkness of my mind
You can feel yourself unwind
And I want to fly, get my feet up off the ground
And I want to fly, and I'll fly
And I want to dive, sink into the depths below
And I want to dive, and I'll dive

Who are you?
Who are you?
Why are you?
Everywhere you look people all seem to be the same.
Cookie cutter homes pop up so quickly it's insane.
Working jobs you hate to buy more of the same old thing
TVs, cars, and cell phones, an expensive diamond ring.
Drone, drone, drone so alone.
Drone, drone, drone so alone.
Have to buy more of the things commercials tell you to.
Do what all the politicians say Jesus would do.
You're so uncreative give me something that is new.
Bleating sheep surround me, I have never been more through.
Drone, drone, drone so alone.
Drone, drone, drone so alone.

Crushing

It’s a mystery it seems–
all these pictures in my dreams
Of a world I know.
Where I long to go.
Where my feels show
what you mean to me…
I love you.
But reality it seems
is not quite good to me.
So I hold my tongue
till I come undone,
till I start to run-
away from you.
Oh what to do?
I’ll just stare at you.
Nothing more to do.
Haven’t got a clue
about these things.

There's something about the way the music moves
at a time in life when I don't have a clue.
The beat and the rhythm they tell me what to do
so I don't have to think hard I just want to push on through.
I can't think about the day that is gone,
and I know the day to come is going to be tough and long.
I know I can't escape all the things I've got to do,
I want to crawl into my bed and hide away with you.
Up comes the sun, and right back down again.
The only way to get through is to find a place of zen.
In spite of the feeling you can't take anymore
I want to see you on your feet moving on the dance floor.

This Is Hip

As we spin alone
drift through outer space
do we leave a trace?
Makes me wonder if
we're really all alone
on our Earthly throne.
I want to be where the moment takes me.
I want to see planets glowing softly.
I want to feel what it's like to float, and
I want to be where the moment takes me.
If we're all alone,
why are we so cruel?
Greed and power rule.
I do not command
armies on the shore
gearing up for war.
I want to be where the moment takes me.
I want to see planets glowing softly.
I want to feel what it's like to float, and
I want to be where the moment takes me.

We Searched for Neptune

Slip into a comma and watch the light swirl round
as the smoke descends and knocks you to the ground
Cacophony of sound eats at the brain
and leaves and deep, deep mark like an audio stain.
As you awake you're not quite sure where you are.
Are you here on Earth, or up among the stars?
In a fit of movement you find your grip,
and fall into an interplanetary movement.
Try to find your way but get lost up in the stars,
and find yourself approaching
the big red planet the Romans called Mars.
Turn around but left is right, up is down, then you burn
and find your only choose is cruising
round the rings of planet Saturn.
Don't get caught up as it crumbles and tumbles into a mess.
You've gone to far, it seems, to find your way back
to the goddess Venus.
Keep up the search to find the song that sings the sun to high noon.
It's the only way you'll know you've reached
the mighty planet Neptune.
