Arcadia Tribute EP

 Election Day

Wild kind of look to the day opening eyes impale neon flickers
She moon, she turning away the city's her slave but he's cheating his mistress
She's moody and grey she's mean and she's restless so restless, so restless indeed
All over you as they say rumours or rivals yell at the strike force
Hi guys, by the way are you aware you're being illegal?
It's making your savior behaviour look evil excuse my timing but say
How'd you fit in with this flim, flam and judy maximum big surprise your smile is something new
I pull my shirt off and pray we're sacred and bound to suffer the heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray we're coming up on re-election day

Stretching my love down the way to your invitation stretching my body
Use your intuitive play because maybe we have more play time than money
Maximum big surprise she knows something new
I pull my shirt off and pray I'm saving myself to suffer the heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray we're coming up on re-election day

By roads and backways a lover's chance down wind
Cut open murmurs and sounds be calm hands on skin
Carry further, entangled strands all sing
I'm saving some time to slip away we could dance
Shouldn't be asking, wild and scheming could be my election day
Maximum big surprise you know something new
I pull my shirt off and pray we're sacred and bound to suffer this heatwave
Pull my shirt off and pray we're coming up on re-election day

Say The Word

There's a skill, it's nothing we could learn at school
With a will to survive beneath this rule
Money thrives as corruptions president
Waste the life of the young and innocent
But after all and the resistant can be disobeyed
So, when we call, please don't think twice or be afraid
Hey, mister, say something

Say the word -if your eyes are open
Say the word -before this love is broken

The lights are down, but you don't sleep so tight
The words around that we play for keeps tonight
As we all know even the best made plans go wrong sometimes
But if it blows well be the ones they victimize
Hey, mister, say something to put this right

Keep Me In The Dark

When the evening's sunlight fingers stretch across the floor
Cover up your eyes with feathers softly close the door
Take me in your heavy lips take me where the shadows lie
I need your blind full secrets hunting fast and loose
The lacy intrigue of this weekend should not be abused
You could take me where you want could you take me all the time away
Wait a little longer don't go too far
I wouldn't like you keeping me in the dark

Tender is the truce I'm tasting watching you dictate
Heady nights of sleepless wasting a face I can't escape
We could wave the world goodbye to all of the boys, cheerio away
Wait a little longer don't go too far
I wouldn't like you keeping me in the dark

Help me now I'm slipping deeper tell me what to say
When without words you call me closer each time you turn away
Something inside you cries but is it something I'll never find away
Wait a little longer don't go too far
I wouldn't like you keeping me in the dark
Wait a little longer before we go too far
I wouldn't like to think you were keeping me in the dark

Goodbye Is Forever

Sometimes you have no choice sometimes you've got no voice to say
Say if you will the words say if your world is so gray
We can decide this there'll be no tears no tragedy
Try I wouldn't break and cry, if you walk away and leave me
Goodbye is forever
Goodbye is forever and ever

Sometimes it makes no sense
This side of cruel coincidence
Caught up in our own barbed wire
To set us free believe this
Goodbye is forever
Goodbye is forever and ever

The Promise

Those tears on a gaping voice who's stretching arms match the hunger of mine
These lips will they never join but always draw me closer and further entwined
With a promise dealer, understand all freedoms fade away
To a point of view where many different pathways meet
And we're standing on this precipice with nothing much to save
But the deep blue screams of falling dreams with our next move
Heaven hide your eyes
Heaven's eyes will never dry
They will never dry

The shades of a thousand steel come flashing by my face in the fury of war
In desolation and abandoned fields the hungry make their stand when they'll stand for no more
Hear the passion in their voices, see the heaven in their eyes
Their hopes and schemes are waiting dreams of less than paradise
And sometimes we make promises we never mean to keep
And blackmail is the only deal a promise dealer sees
Heaven hide your eyes
Heaven's eyes will never dry
They will never dry

Lady Ice

Lady Ice slips into her soul Lady Ice leaves a house so cold
Lady Ice did you know that the world was lonely too
Drifting snows searching plains and high
Turning stones as she looks for the heart somebody stole
She knows the violation in lovers arms without occasion
But who knows where to find the true heart for Lady Ice

Mesmerized in the candle flame
Compromised by the cruel bands of steel around her breasts
She knows the desolation of lovers arms their isolation
But who knows where to find the true heart for Lady Ice
Lady's eyes slip away from the part she plays in school

She knows of roles and hideaways
Suppose she knows but turns away
She knows where to find the true heart for Lady Ice
Lady Ice step outside your soul
Lady Ice do you know that the world is frightened too
