Today 04:13
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 06:10
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 02:04
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 04:23
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 04:32
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
7.
Sleep 02:55
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 06:08
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 04:50
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
