(2007) Young Modern - 01 - Young Modern Station

YOUNG MODERN STATION


Stalled at young modern station
Arthritic conversation
Life has a deadline lately
Allergic and in the news

The clocks are ticking timeless
Dead Dali days behind us
The band is back together
Allergic and in the news

Does it make you cry
when I make you feel so far away?
The interviews over

Stuck to the goal
To rescue my skin

I need a different liquor
So sick of getting sicker
and I'm moving back to the country
Allergic and in the news

Does it make you cry
when I make you feel so far away?
The interviews over

Stuck to the goal
To rescue my skin
You're so far away
The interviews over

He dreams of tracks and choices
I think I'm hearing voices


Does it make you cry
when I make you feel so far away?
The interviews over

Stuck to the goal
To rescue my skin
You're so far away
The interviews over

Does it make you cry
when I make you feel so far away?
The interviews over

(2007) Young Modern - 02 - Straight Lines

STRAIGHT LINES


Breathing from a hole in my lung
I had no one
But faces in front of me
racing through the void in my head
to find traces
of a good luck academy

Sparks ignite and trade them for thought
about no one
and nothing in particular
Washed the sickened-socket and drove
Resent nothing
There's good will inside of me

Wake me up, lower the fever
Walking in a straight line
Set me on fire in the evening
Everything would be fine

Waking up strong in the morning
Walking in a straight line
Lately I'm a desperate believer
but walking in a straight line

Something I will never forget
I felt desperate
And stuck to the marrow
Invisible to everyone else
I'm a sex-change
and a damsel with no heroine

Wake me up, lower the fever
Walking in a straight line
Set me on fire in the evening
Everything will be fine

Waking up strong in the morning
Walking in a straight line
Lately I'm a desperate believer
but walking in a straight line

I don't need no time to say
There's no changing yesterday
If we keep talking and
I keep walking in straight lines


Wake me up lower the fever
Walking in a straight line
Set me on fire in the evening
Everything would be fine

Waking up strong in the morning
Walking in a straight line
Lately I'm a desperate believer
but walking in a straight line

(2007) Young Modern - 03 - If You Keep Losing Sleep

IF YOU KEEP LOSING SLEEP


If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me
you're gonna be bored

If you're up chimney sweep under rubble covers
If you keep counting sheep
and being adored

You're a tombstone in the mud
Playing twister in a bubble
again...

I need a breath, a wind so pure
To dry up the mud over me
To be reborn, not born again
Erase my regret from the start

Shot the model
Flaking temporary skin
You're no burden, you're no burden
Such reduction
Such seductive silent wine
Hop scotch trigger, trigger

If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me, are you gonna be..
If you're up chimney sweep under rubble covers
If you keep losing me

You're a tombstone in the mud
Playing twister in a bubble
again...

If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me, you're gonna be..
If you keep losing sleep over other lovers
If you keep losing me

(2007) Young Modern - 04 - Reflections of a Sound

REFLECTIONS OF A SOUND


In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound

I know it's been far too long, in stormy weather
my arrested hope won't choke forever
Like a memory needed never

We walk wrapped in thought
Some are vacant, some have grown too short
It's the only thing I've ever had that keeps me lonely

In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
When nobody is around
In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
When nobody is around

Come down from the waist of time
Feel so empty when I feel so fine
Starting over, we could change this light shadow sober

I've been waiting for far too long
Let's stick together
'cause you're keeping me warm
but it's a lonely setting sun

In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
When nobody is around
In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
When nobody is around

I wait
so long
Now my head is full of pressure
I need time
to cure my mind
It's like a loop that lasts forever

I've been waiting for far too long
Let's stick together
'cause you're keeping me warm
but it's a lonely setting sun


In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
When nobody is around
In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
When nobody is around

In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
for nobody
In the sun we are found to be reflections of a sound
for nobody

THOSE THIEVING BIRDS (PT. 1)
STRANGE BEHAVIOUR
THOSE THIEVING BIRDS (PT. 2)


Those thieving birds
Hang strung from an empty nest
This swan-plagued pond
Forsaken and underwhelmed
Those leaving words
Hang strong from an emptiness

Hang strong from an emptiness
Those thieving birds

Hang strung from an empty nest

Those thieving birds


* * * * *


This is tearing me apart
If the sun won't shine
Forever will never be fine

And underneath the hollow ground
Lies a night-time sky
For only a desperate eye

When I'm paranoid I see walls behind walls behind walls
When I'm overjoyed I see falls over falls over falls
When I'm all alone I'll be wary and careful to

Only eat with uncles
Never talk to strangers
God is in the kitchen
Faking baby dangers

Change whatever karma means
For the only things that ended are true to begin

If this streets air ain't up to par
I'll take my clothes off, take this strange behaviour
Not only liked but loved as well
If this streets air ain't up to par
I'll take my clothes off, take this strange behaviour
Not only liked but loved as well

When I'm paranoid I see walls behind walls behind walls
When I'm overjoyed I see falls over falls over falls
When I'm all alone I'll be wary and careful to

Only eat with uncles
Never talk to strangers
God is in the kitchen
Faking baby dangers

If this streets air ain't up to par
I'll take my clothes off, take this strange behaviour
Not only liked but loved as well
If this streets air ain't up to par
I'll take my clothes off, take this strange behaviour
Not only liked but loved as well

If this keeps tearing me apart
The walls come down won't stop this empty feeling
For everything apart from this


* * * * *


Lonely in life, dead or alive
If the truth had incursions
No more goodbyes, no more big lies
If the truth had versions
As long as you and I are together
I'll hold onto the jewelery
Like staple-strapped clenched fist and tongs

Hang strung from an empty nest
Those thieving birds

Those thieving birds

Those thieving birds

Hang strung from an empty nest

(2007) Young Modern - 06 - The Man Who Knew Too Much

THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH


There was a man that knew too much
With a panic attic mind but a..
a chance to numb his golden touch
to ignore the will of time
Had me struck down open to the fact
I was standing in a line with a..
broken occupation on my back

Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say, it's changing every day
The way I'm thinking in different shades of grey
It's not enough to say, this is not love

He had the anti-midas touch
Temporary state of mind but a..
a chance to die enhances growth
Now I'm trembling all the time
Stumble 'round makin' faces on the scene.. scene..
(what? what?)
Stumble 'round make your faces on your own

Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say it's changing every day
The way I'm thinking in different shades of grey
It's not enough to say, this is not love

I'm not your mocking bird
That sings your cellar song
She got a paper run

You're compensated

Can we all gather 'round on the scene?
Can we all move around on our own?
Are ya.. a mover shaker all alone?

Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say it's changing every day
The way I'm thinking in different shades of grey
It's not enough to say, aa..
Time is not a moment we're letting slip away
There's nothing left to say that this is not love

I'm not your mocking bird
That sings your cellar song
She got a paper run
to write your letters wrong

(2007) Young Modern - 07 - Waiting All Day

WAITING ALL DAY


I took advantage
of a straight believing town
that tore the bandage
and said "look who's bleeding now"
Are you listening or are you faithless like the others

Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you
It's true

He's been beaten
Might have brought it on himself
So he stopped reading
every book on mental health
And all's not lost in this tangle like no other

Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you
It's true

Take this dose and go
Whiskey warm September
The faded signs will show
That he still remembers


Long days are almost here
Faded signs for you

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
For you
It's true

Waiting all day
Waiting all year
Waiting all day
Waiting all year

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year

I'll be waiting all day
I've be waiting all year
I'll be waiting all day

(2007) Young Modern - 08 - Mind Reader

MIND READER


I heard a hole in the silence
I saw a crack in the plan
but I got lazy ways

You're not a private detective
Take off your telephone shoes
My thoughts going out of phase

And these are the better days

Still it seems funny
Stickin' like honey
Wrote my own article
Now I'm hummin'
She takes pictures through my lazy eyes
and I'm dreamin' girl it's your money

When we're alone and out drivin'
ourselves around all the bends
She's got crazy ways
wow

And I'm all woo.. ooh...

Still it seems funny
Stickin' like honey
Wrote my own article
Now I'm hummin'
She takes pictures through my lazy eyes
and I'm dreamin' girl it's your money

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No, I'm not a mind reader, baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No, I'm not a mind reader baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No, I'm not a mind reader baby


I got addictive dependent
I got a cold change of heart
But I got lazy ways
We're all woo.. ooh...

Still it seems funny
Stickin' like honey
Wrote my own article
Now I'm hummin'
She takes pictures through my lazy eyes
and I'm dreamin' girl it's your money

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No, I'm not a mind reader baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No, I'm not a mind reader baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No, I'm not a mind reader baby come on

Don't know what you want
Don't know what you want
No I'm not a mind reader, mind reader, mind reader baby come on

(2007) Young Modern - 09 - Low

LOW


Have you ever been lost?
Floating on the ground like a fading frost
You've fallen asleep
next to your bed and you feel so low

Oh, they've stolen your pride
Stand up while your conscience sits aside
I've made up my mind
Half of the time and I feel so low

Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low, I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind


If the object was clear
there wouldn't be a point
Only godless fear
by the end of July
I wonder will I still feel so low?

Oh I'm host to a guide
Movin' in time
And fallin' in line
I've made up my mind
The papers are signed and I feel so low

Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low, I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind

Once a lover
Never suffer so far away from here
You're feelin' hollow
Head to toe, so low


Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low, I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind

Stay and hijack the hurt
I feel so low, I feel so high
Take a look inside my mind

(2007) Young Modern - 10 - Insomnia

INSOMNIA


Tomorrow
will be another part of yesterday
And yesterday will be another part of the day before

Wait
I hear another song insomnia
About the days I wasn't tired and doing that 'fun retro look'

I'll stay awake for days
I'll stay awake for days
But I'll sit awake in a daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

Hey
Don't use the term 'accommodation'
I won't be there for that and that will never be there for me

And I need
To get some sleep slash resolution
About the days I wasn't tired and doing that "fun retro thing"

I'll stay awake for days
I'll stay awake for days
But I'll sit awake in a daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

O..ver in the corner of a circle
I sleep behind this bedroom
I see "fun retro look"

Dine behind a suitcase in an empty room
It's time to leave millions behind
Hey
that's what I took
from retro look

I'll stay awake for days
I stay awake for days
But I'll sit awake in a daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

I'll stay awake for days
I stay awake for days
But I'll sit awake in a daze anyway
I'm a maze of chains

(2007) Young Modern - 11 - All Across The World

ALL ACROSS THE WORLD


Underneath the shelf
Cracks appear in thick enamel
In this laps
Excuse for wasting time
I wait for signals shooting stars
I'd scrape through every branch
'Cause I need to come down

Underneath the home
I lived in, I was a page in someone's book
And no one asked me why
The page was fifteen stories high
I'm underneath that home and wondering why


All across the world
There are things we need to forget and forgive
Sometimes we have to try
and shed the damage we don't need
Oh, justice shake your head
I'm wasting my time

We can break this drought
Wanna tell you I love ya I need ya in the night
Sometimes I get so full
I wanna tell ya I'm feeling alright
I'm shaken to the bone
and on my way home

Adjust an omen at the door
Singing baby won't you please get a hold without it
And while you sit there on the phone
Tellin' me baby I'm a liar
You don't seem to care
what I care about and baby it's a shame
(to be wasted)

All across the world
There are things we need to forget and forgive
Sometimes we have to try
and shed the damage we don't need
Oh, justice shake your head
I'm on my way home
