Superpower
I feel your eyes on me
Feel them running
Feel them run across my skin
It’s like I hear you breathe
And you’re working
You’re working your way to me
I smile and I entice
Make you wonder what it would be like
And if I stoke this fire
Will I survive or turn to ice
I need a super powerful love
Gimme a super power to love
I am your queen of swords
I’ve been clever
I’ve been clever as a fox
Untouchable at first
Now I’m playing
Playing on your checkerboard
The scent of hunger’s curse
It was easy, and I’m on the hunt now
Could be a great reward
or maybe after I’ll feel worse
I need a super powerful love
Gimme a super power for love
I want a super powerful love
Gimme a super power to love
I feel I’m in control
Gonna crack it
Gonna crack your code
It’s almost all mapped out
in a language,
all my own
But signals scramble up
Another riddle for my pile
I’m in the wild unknown
the charm, the chase, it’s not enough
I need a super powerful love
Gimme a super power for love
I want a super powerful love
Gimme a super power to love

Oh Yeah
Yeah
I forgot
All things I wanted to do tonight
Oh yeah
I forgot
All the things I wanted to do with my life
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah
I forgot
All things I wanted to do tonight, with you, by my side
Oh yeah
I forgot
All the things I wanted to do with my life, before I’m too old
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
I keep living my life over here
You keep living your life over there
Most of the time that’s ok
But I don’t wanna die this way
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah
I forgot
All things I wanted to do tonight
With you

Over The Wall

Over the Wall
Hold me close
So I can see
All the pretty things other people see
Hold me up
When I feel small
I wanna see over the wall
I wanna see over the wall
Hear me rage
So I can breathe
Wash away the dirt
Hardened on my sleeve
Hear me cry
Don’t let me fall
I wanna see over the wall
I wanna see over the wall
On the other side
What’s on the other side
On the other side
We don’t need to hide
On the other side
What’s on the other side
On the other side
I’ll be by your side
Hold me up, hold me up, gimme just the right stuff
Teach me love
So I can fly
Like a free balloon floating oh so high
Help me grow
To stand real tall
I wanna see over the wall
I wanna see over the wall
On the other side
What’s on the other side
On the other side
We don’t need to hide
On the other side
What’s on the other side
On the other side
I’ll be by your side
Hold me up, hold me up, gimme just the right stuff
Hold me up, Pull me up, give me just the right stuff

Trouble Up
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
Can’t keep my thoughts straight in my mind
I’m having some trouble up inside
I can’t sit still in one place
Can’t look too hard into your face
I’m having some trouble up inside
Witching hour I’m wide awake
Got bullets flying to contemplate
I’m having some trouble up inside
Scattered, desperate and confused
I bumped my head and now I’m bruised
And having some trouble up inside
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
I got trouble up inside
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
I got trouble up inside
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
Can’t keep my thoughts straight in my mind
I’m having some trouble up inside
Doctor give me pill to take
Day in day out can’t seem to fake
I’m having some trouble up inside
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
I got trouble up inside
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
I got trouble up inside
Trouble’s got me
In my mind
Trouble’s got me
All my life
Trouble’s got me
I’m trying hard to fight
This trouble up inside
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
Can’t keep my thoughts straight in my mind
I’m having some trouble up inside
I’m looking for a freedom train
But bondage in a no-win game
I’m having some trouble up inside
I cant keep my thoughts in line
I got trouble up inside
I cant keep my thoughts in line
I got trouble up inside
Trouble’s got me
In my mind
Trouble’s got me
All my life
Trouble’s got me
I’m trying hard to fight
This trouble up inside
How come
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
I can’t keep my thoughts in line
I can’t

City Lights

City Lights
City lights in our eyes
Don’t need no sun
Don’t need no one
Just gimme what I want
City lights Monday morn
From the day you’re born
Too proud
Or too bold
To come out of the cold
You don’t have to prove yourself to me
I’m looking at you
Do you see me
You don’t have to prove yourself to me
But when it comes down to it
We’re uptight
But we don’t fight
Takes all my might
To stay upright
City lights hit my soul
White knuckling on the payroll
On parole, on patrol
You tell yourself you’re in control
You don’t have to prove yourself to me
I’m looking at you
Do you see me
You don’t have to prove yourself to me
When it comes down to it
We’re uptight
But we don’t fight
Takes all my might
To stay upright
You don’t have to prove yourself to me
But when it comes down to it
We’re uptight
But we don’t fight
Takes all my might
To stay upright

Honey

Honey
The time you spend worrying what’s wrong with yourself
That’s just the garbage stinking up your house
The heart you give to people who cast you off
That’s just cuz you don’t know your own worth
I put my money down on a humpback’s ocean climb
She said "Honey, don’t waste your time."
And I bet it all on a barbary lion’s prime
She said "Honey, honey, don’t waste your time."
When you walk in a room, stride through the middle of the door
The war you’re fighting is like junk in your purse
Look them in the eye, you have a right to your space
You just let them bear their own weight
If you put your money down on a periwinkle’s chime
She’ll say "Honey, don’t waste your time."
If you bet it all on the comfort of a porcupine
She’ll say "Honey, honey, don’t waste your time."
If you put your money down on an owl waiting for sunshine
She’ll say "Honey don’t waste your time."
If you bet it all on a coconut crab on a fishing line
She’ll say "Honey, honey, don’t waste your time."
Don’t you waste your time
