Today
(Music and Lyrics by Ben Hoffmann)
Things can't stay the same
Why we have to blame
Hate subtracts our try
Try to step outside
Cause we've got a lot of pride
So does other guy
He is standing next to you
People like to talk
Who was sold and what was bought
Score don't always show
Gold don't always glow
Hear them calling after you
They haven't got a clue
Make them see with their own eyes
Dreams can make us see
What we don't want to believe
We keep on telling lies
'Til we see with our own eyes
Cause you can't turn away
When you seen what I've seen
Today Today Today

Flying Stars
(Music by Maitri, Lyrics by Caroline Davis)
Flying stars they crawl along
Like pieces of a broken Mars
Mending years of calling cards
Used up for what I cannot
Start again
Seems like all the time is gone
Follow me it will take long
Into the night
There’ll be no song
To sing
Westward ways
Be still
My friend
This is the end
Spinning planets they face the wind
Like wagers on a placed bet
And traveled years of Somerset
Writing words and breaking through our
Hiding place
Seems like we’re in no man’s land
Tredging through the quicksand
Embracing the day
Not finding no hand
I sing
Westward ways
Be still
My friend
I sing
Westward ways
Be still
My friend
This is the end

Seasons
(Music and Lyrics by Ben Hoffmann)
Changing of the season let the world go 'round,
The world is round I know
that the fertile ground when the winds go 'round
is picking up the show
There is no rhyme or reason for this do or die
it's live and learn so stern
And the give and take don't appreciate
That they like what they know
and if you tell 'em 'bout it they won't go
You've gotta show them if you can
or they'll never ever understand
Give into the treason I'm your alibi
I will abide by your side
and my fortutude makes me the kind of man
who will never give up the fight
And if it gets too hard to eat and you can't sleep at night
you're in the right or are
you appointing you a different point of view?
'Cause they like what they know
and if you tell 'em 'bout it they won't go
You've gotta show them if you can
Or they'll never ever understand
You will never ever understand
You will never ever understand
You will never ever understand
You will never ever understand

Hide it
(Music and Lyrics by Ben Hoffmann)
Here we are, here we go
Slipping sliding looking for the answer
All the same time wondering what's the question
Looking at a map but no direction
It will never tell me where to find it
Here we are, here we go
Today will be the change or maybe next day
Can't predict the future or my feelings
Staring at the walls and then the ceiling
Gotta work on trying not to hide it
Gotta work on trying not to hide it
Gotta work on trying not to hide it
Here we are, here we go
It is still the same but now I'm leaving
Taking my show on the road to next state
I am tired but am still believing

Good Time
(Music and Lyrics by Maitri)
Now I see it
Incomplete it’s
Turn me into my own enemy
Chills you to the bone telling you to go home
It takes some time
Lord give me some of that time
It takes some bread
God up above who put that idea into my head
What a day for a good time
Now I see it
It’s completed
Hold back those who try to conquer thou
Chills you to the bone, telling you to go home
It takes some repetition
Mighty creator I just need some of that extradition
It takes some hard earned money made
Spend all the dough get your fix and then everything is ok
What a day for a good time
Sitting for hours in my seat
Watching everyone pass by me
They say a picture’s worth a thousand words
I lost count hours ago
What a day for a good time

Clouds
(Music and Lyrics by Maitri)
Find the time
What’s yours is mine
Ease the pain
With palms of wine
Have your share
Life ain’t fair
Freshen your soul
Release the care
Coming around
Put your head in the clouds
Turn on the light
Put up that fight
Stoke that fire
It lasts all night
Ice cream and candy
Flowers
Sleeping in
Smoking that cigarette
You can do what you do
Coming around
Put your head in the clouds

Sleep
(Music & Lyrics by Ben Hoffmann)
Let us drift off to sleep so we can get over it
Make everything better and then let's begin again
Silent sound is quite sweet if you can remember when
Times were not so crazy and we didn't learn to forget
Racing to the end to see who can finish first
Don't just stand there pick sides you know that's the finish curse
Holding arms but not theirs at least in the human sense
Giving money to them we'll wait and then take it back
Cause I love you want you to love me too
And I need you want you to need me too
Disorder in the house you go out and look for it
It will make you feel nice but time it's so limited
Get back home and it's worse decide you must shoot the horse
Hoarse voice sore throat oh well I guess I won't sing no more
Cause I love you want you to love me too
And I want you why must you make me blue
Let us drift back to sleep so we can get over it
Make everything better and then let's begin again
Silent sound is quite sweet if you can remember when
Times were not so crazy and we didn't learn to forget

Oral Fixation
(Music and Lyrics by Ben Hoffmann)
Put it in your mouth
You don't want to live without it
Doesn't matter what it is
You need that oral fixation
Makes no sense to live in doubt
Break the habit feed your fiction
Doesn't matter where you come from
There'll be no decision
Rise and shine let's have a cup
Sit around then have another
If it wasn't for this there'd be no need to bother
There'd be something to discover
Suck it in and pass it down
By the guys another round
Chew it up then spit it out
And don't forget to brush your teeth
And on to the next one...

Reminder
(Music by Maitri, Lyrics by Caroline Davis)
I am awake I hear your voice clearly
Look around you say don't fear me
Come to me
Stumbling around in the only shoes you got
Ask for the money till your next spot
Come to me
I get so tired of laughter sometimes
Can you remind me of what it's for
Scuse me sir, why're you digging in that garbage there
Can you remind me of why life's worth living
Looking down don't see what's above
Got the brands and style ain't got no love
Come to me
Slave to the mercy mercy mercy me
Hard to see when we're not worthy
Come to me
I get so tired

Redeem
(Music & Lyrics by Caroline Davis)
Paint a picture of your world underground
You run but the love it will find you
Thread a needle never making a sound
You run but the love it will find you
Lost in a river of disguises
Nobody sees you for yourself
Made some mistakes and now you're trying
To redeem yourself
Share a story the ending unclear
You run but the love it will find you
Understand her the darkness so near
You run but the love it will find you
