In Heaven Written by Peter Ivers Verse 1 In Heaven, everything is fine In Heaven, everything is fine In Heaven, everything is fine You've got your good things And I've got mine In Heaven, everything is fine Verse 2 In Heaven, everything is fine In Heaven, everything is fine In Heaven, everything is fine You've got your good things And you've got mine In Heaven, everything is fine

I Want To See The Light (Tracy Howe) Verse 1 Someone left the lights out on the ground And the people that were there were never found 10:15 flight to Madrapour Soaring off into the night forever more And the dreams we were dreaming Have all flickered and died Before we close that curtain I want to see the light Verse 2 In a dream the truth is overheard That our destination's only just a word He who so desires is free to go But the gesture would be worthless even so All your well-formed opinions Are just holes in the night Before they pull that trigger I want to see the light Verse 3 Someone bring my medicine, I'm ill The machine is ready waiting for the kill Powers below have analyzed my fate Memo/Update/Final/Subject/Terminate But I feel only nothing I with silence abide Before they push that button I want to see the light Chorus I want to see the light I want to see the light I want to see the light I want to see the light I want to see the light I want to see the light
3.
Gods and Monsters (Darrin C. Huss / Remi Szyszka) Verse 1 You remember it all There's a head at the door and a face on the wall Waiting for the sign There's a passion you can't hide and it whispers to you There's always a promise In the dark of the night just before it's too late Running out of time But you know that the game's not over Chorus They're telling you lies But you won't go down on the other side There's a guiding light And you don't believe in gods or monsters In the name of the few You gotta stay on track just to find the answer Never to be confused By the laws of gods and monsters Verse 2 Contagious science It's the emperor's new clothes And the human bias For whatever it means Now the lines are drawn and the numbers chosen Whisper in the night It's the cold dark chamber and you hear them sighing Running out of time But you know that the game's not over
4.
The Sundial 03:15
The Sundial (Darrin C. Huss / David Kristian) Sleeping alone at night In an empty house No one can hear your lonely sigh The walls are wide and claustrophobic Where will you go? To drown your sorrows The phone never rings The shadow of the night Permeates the empty space Where emotion once reside There was a time of colour And cheerful faces now like dust All becomes black and white Catatonic Like the sundial Shifting time Another day is all in motion Spring leaves to fall
5.
Stranger's Thoughts (H. Maile / M. Meyn) Verse 1 In the last few hundred years Some people lost their place on earth They never had a chance To stay just like they were I can't understand Why should this happen here We should accept and learn How to live together Chorus These are just some strangers thoughts These are just some strangers thoughts (Strangers thoughts) These are just some strangers thoughts These are just some strangers thoughts (Strangers thoughts) These are just some strangers thoughts These are just some strangers thoughts (Strangers thoughts) Verse 2 The reason for the pain Is always based on history The madness in some minds Has started to do this all I can't understand Why should this happen here We should accept and learn How to live together
6.
Being Boiled Written by Phil Oakey, Ian Craig Marsh & Martyn Ware Verse 1 Listen to the voice of Buddha Saying stop your sericulture Little people like your offspring Boiled alive for some god's stocking Buddha's watching, Buddha's waiting Verse 2 Just because the kid's an orphan Is no excuse for thoughtless slaying People don't forget this torture Just because you call her mother Doesn't mean that she's your better Verse 3 Once more with the voice of Buddha He'll say carry on your slaughter Who cares for the little children You may slice with no conviction Blind revenge on a blameless victim
7.
Empire State Human Written by Phil Oakey, Ian Craig Marsh & Martyn Ware Verse 1 Since I was very young I realized I never wanted to be human size So I avoid the crowds and traffic jams They just remind me of how small I am Because of this longing in my heart I'm going to start the growing up I'm going to grow now and never stop Think like a mountain, grow to the top Chorus Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall As big as a wall, wall, wall, as big as a wall, wall, wall And if I'm not tall, tall, tall, then I will grow, grow, grow Because I'm not tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall As big as a wall, wall, wall, as big as a wall, wall, wall And if I'm not tall, tall, tall, then I will grow, grow, grow Because I'm not tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall Verse 2 With concentration My size increased And now I'm fourteen stories high At least!! Empire state human Just a bored kid I'll go to Egypt to be A pyramid Coda Brick by brick Stone by stone Growing till he's fully grown Brick by brick Stone by stone Growing till he's fully grown Fetch more water Fetch more sand Biggest person in the land Fetch more water Fetch more sand Biggest person in the land
8.
Circus Of Death (Oakey / Marsh / Ware) Nine o'clock flight from Hawaii The Trident is just touching down We're waiting here on the tarmac McGarrett is wearing a frown He's here to help with a problem A blood-spattered curse on our land Please cast your eye over this map, sir This business is quite out of hand The circus of death is approaching Its pathway is painted in red Before it the frightened and helpless Behind it a trail of the dead The narcotic that forges their union Is a substance known only to one To the clown it is known as dominion It's a secret that he'll give to none The drug which gives the clown power Means the circus can never be stopped And his dream can go on unhindered 'Til the last human being has dropped Spare me and my family I've done you no wrong Go away, please let us be I've known you for too long
9.
Morale Written by Oakey / Marsh / Ware Don’t talk Close the door You’ve been here before Your shape dim I’m an old man now The air’s thin The walls very damp now And if I don’t go I’ll always be stuck here in this poor little room With a view of the corner I don’t forget The light growing weak now Experience is useless Unless you can learn And I’ve never met anyone Who used their knowledge To avoid those mistakes made again and again And if I don’t go I’ll always be stuck here in this poor little room With a view of the corner You've Lost That Loving Feeling Written by Spector / Mann / Weil Verse 1 You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips And there’s no tenderness like before in your fingertips You’re trying hard not to show it (baby) But baby, baby I know it Chorus You’ve lost that loving feeling, woah, that loving feeling You’ve lost that loving feeling, now it’s gone, gone, gone, woah-woah Verse 2 Now there’s no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you And girl you’re starting to criticise little things I do It makes me just feel like crying (baby) ‘cos, baby, something beautiful’s dying Middle 8 Baby, baby, I’d get down on my knees for you If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah We had a love, a love, a love you don’t find every day So don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t let it slip away Coda Bring back that loving feeling, woah, that loving feeling Bring back that loving feeling Now it’s gone, gone, gone and I can’t go on Baby (baby), baby (baby), I want you please (woooo) Please (woooo) I need your love (I need your love) I need your love (I need your love) Now it bring it on back (bring it on back) bring it on back now (bring it on back now) Now bring it on back
10.
ALWAYS ON MY MIND / IN MY HOUSE (Christopher / James / Carson / Tennant / Lowe) Maybe I didn’t treat you quite as good as I should Maybe I didn’t love you quite as often as I could Little things I should have said and done, I never took the time You were always on my mind, you were always on my mind Maybe I didn’t hold you all those lonely, lonely times And I guess I never told you I’m so happy that you’re mine If I made you feel second-best I’m so sorry I was blind You were always on my mind, you were always on my mind Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn’t died Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied, satisfied Little things I should have said and done, I never took the time You were always on my mind, you were always on my mind Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn’t died Give me one more chance to keep you satisfied, satisfied You were always on my mind x3 You were always in my house You were always on my mind it’s true I never thought of anyone else but you You were on my mind and in my dreams I should have stopped to make you see, you were always I worked so hard I thought you knew My love I did it all for you I never really had the time I guess you couldn’t read my mind You were always
11.
I Don't Depend On You Written by Oakey / Ware / Marsh Verse 1 The night So young You could lose You could gain Your temperature's rising Better pull into the outside lane You always say you're not the jealous kind Then you tell all your friends that I've got one thing on my mind Chorus I've played this scene before, you had one foot in the door But there's always plenty more, don't try to use me I don't depend on you, I've got my own friends too I'll never be your wife, don't try to use me I've played this scene before, you had one foot in the door But there's always plenty more, don't try to use me Bridge It's cruel but it's true, I don't depend on you It's cruel but it's true, go back to the end of the queue

Terror tonight, feel the screaming Dreaming awake, that's when I see Nothing in place, no more feeling
13.
Rocket Science Written by John von Ahlen Verse 1 A challenge is made, I can feel the pressure I cannot change my nature, I prefer leisure I'm reading a book, out of sheer defiance The message is clear, it's not Rocket Science Chorus Tonight's the night Do you feel love?

Paris Mon Amour Written by Caesar Gergess and John von Ahlen Copyright Control 2015 Paris je t'aime, ma ville mon amour Paris le jour, Paris la nuit Paris d'une nuit, Paris toujours Paris perdu, regagner mes Paris Paris des amours le jour Paris quand tout est flou Paris des amours la nuit Paris des Marais, Paris des beaux bourgs Paris des amants unis Paris des amants désunis Paris je scelle mon amour Paris Pont des Arts, et la Seine pour toujours. Paris je t'aime, ma ville ma liberté Paris Cœur-Sacré, Paris Arts et Métiers Paris aimée contre vents et marées Paris battue par les flots, ne sombre jamais. Paris des amours hantés Paris des passionnés d'amour Paris l'hiver, Paris l'été Paris éternelle, Paris autel de l'amour libre et fou. Paris je t'aime, je t'aime moi non plus Paris tu m'éblouis, Paris je t'oublie Paris je te quitte, je te crois perdue Paris tu me séduis, tu m'attires, tu me reconquis Ô ville des lumières je t'aime et te vénère Tel un beau vampire qui me prive de tout Et me nourrit d'amour, de culture, de liberté Je flâne et j'erre dans tes veines aux abords de la Seine Je flâne et j'erre sans but précis, je noie mes chagrins ou célèbre mes amours dans des verres de vin au bistrot du coin ou au Café Beaubourg Paris est une fête selon l'américain Paris est une fête selon l'univers Paris je t'aime, ma ville mon amour Pour tout ce que tu m'offres peu importe le prix Du cœur battant rougeoyant de Notre Dame aux confins de tes portes teintées de grisaille Peu importe dans quel état j'erre, avec ou sans le sou, je préfère me laisser bercer par l'amour de tes flots jusqu'à ma mort. A la vie, à l'amour, Paris la nuit, Paris le jour Fluctuat nec mergitur Libre en pensée, libre en amour.

Parralox Melbourne, Australia

If ever there was a new electronic pop band to encapsulate and emulate the legendary stylings of Depeche Mode, The Human League, Erasure, New Order, Pet Shop Boys and the spirit of Madonna in her 80s day-glo era, then Australia’s Parralox are that modern-day reincarnation. ... more
