Break Up Breakdown
Batson May 2010
I have to have a reason
Please give me the reason
I can’t see the reason
Nor hear the rhyme
All this time / blind minded trying / trying trying minds
Remember when we talked so free
Time blew by like a breeze
When do you mean what you say?
Do you say what you mean?
I am you are / break up breakdown / we are we were
The lucky ones... we are the lucky ones...
We were the lucky ones...
I do love to get you off
Yeah let me get you off
I want to get you off
Off of my mind
So unkind / a fine timed line / timing / lying times
Remember when we talked so free
Not so much recently
When do you mean what you say?
Do you say what you mean?
I am you are / break up breakdown / we are we were
The lucky ones... we are the lucky ones...
We were the lucky ones...
I’m going to get you back
I’d like to get you back
I won’t take you back
And you’re not mine
Too confined / long driving kind / driving / driving kind
Remember when we talked so free
You were you I was me
When do you mean what you say?
Do you say what you mean?
I am you are / break up breakdown / we are we were
The lucky ones… the lucky ones… the lucky ones,,,
We are the lucky ones… we were the lucky ones

Left at the Light
Batson October 2008
I guess by now you were hoping
We could point to where we’re going
I trust for sure it’s disappointing
Sorry how I’ve ‘come disjointed
You halfway smile ‘Our world is round’
How would I know?
How would I know the shape it’s in?
How would I know how would I?
YOU SAID I SAID I SAID YOU SAID
I SAID YOU SAID YOU SAID I SAID
Left at the light... Turned all around...
Three lefts make a right...
Round, round and around… Round, all turned around
Back to where we got going
Drive the night just to hold you
Making time lines unfolding
Sorry how I ‘came disjointed
Another day the world’s stopped turning
How would I know?
How would I know my head is spinning?
How would I know how would I?
YOU SAID I SAID I SAID YOU SAID
I SAID YOU SAID YOU SAID I SAID
Left at the light... Turned all around...
Three lefts make a right...
Round, round and around… Round, all turned around
< Instrumental >
How would I know?

I SAID YOU SAID YOU SAID I SAID
Left at the light... Turned all around...
Three lefts make a right...
Round, round and around… Round, our world is round

Minutes in Tears
Batson April 2009
Remember the first time … very first time …
Remember the first time I heard you play
‘11:59’ came alive
Twelve ‘o’ two I wonder about you
Three minutes in tears old waves we knew
We knew … 3 minutes in tears … 3 minutes …
Hear the stars’ echo … echo echo echo …
Can you feel the night’s stumbling ghost
Hear the stars’ echo oh so soulful
Guess your world is tumbling slowly
As I sing you over and over to me
Over & over … over to me … to me …
<<In tears>>
Neither rockets nor oceans... no rockets...
Now it’s already one thirteen
Neither rockets nor oceans bring me peace
When it strikes five I toss ‘til nine
These minutes in tears new waves in mind
In mind … 3 minutes in tears … 3 minutes …
Hear the stars’ echo … echo echo echo …
Can you feel the night’s stumbling ghost
Hear the stars’ echo oh so soulful
Guess your world is tumbling slowly
As I sing you over and over to me
Over & over … over to me … to me …
<< In tears>>

Room on the Moon
Batson September 2007
Room on the Moon...
You say you pray for better days
Room on the Moon …
Cool cozy post-Earth getaway
Can you believe it’s so senseless
Can you believe it’s so senseless
Can you believe how we ruined things?
One day they’ll call us The Senseless Human Beings
Is what we do now what we do, what we do now is
Is what we do now what we do, what we do now is
Room on the Moon …
Radio-quiet airing free a breath to breathe
Room on the Moon …
Liquid mirrors spill the Sea Tranquility
Can you believe it’s so senseless
Can you believe it’s so senseless
Can you believe how we ruined things?
One day they’ll call us The Senseless Human Beings
Is what we do now what we do, what we do now is
Is what we do now what we do, what we do now is

Spent
Batson September 20008
Quiet aisles last minute things
Lost in thoughts of the coming
Not time well spent not time well spent
Or is it now or is it all it is it seems?
You’ll be here within an hour
Closely watched the simmering
Not time well spent not time well spent
Or is it now or is it all it is it seems?
<< Instrumental >>
Lively taste big table talk
So sure how we’ll change the world
Not time well spent... no difference
Or is it now or is it all it is it seems?
Breathe before you leave again
I watch the news begin to drift
Not time well spent... no difference
Or is it now or is it all it is a dream?
<< Instrumental >>
All I’ve known a peopled field
Someone’s crying ‘We’re all here'
Crying ‘We’re’ all here’ / crying ‘We’re all here’
Or is it now we’re all crying / crying ‘We’re all here'
