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? 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, 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 << instrumental >> 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

Spent 04:32
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'
