Lightspeed 04:27
He travels fast, too fast and he knows All of friends tell him he needs to slow If you lived in his head, maybe you’d understand Why he does what he does, why he says what he says Please come fast He lives in a room, no a box, no a tomb No, a place without walls under a full moon He wrote time is a song, that you can’t sing too long A refrain we could sing all damn day long Please come fast This place is just too beautiful for me And I think I’d prefer to live at lightspeed

Hoodwink 03:58
When I feel you come around, I know what you want What I feel you come around, I know what you want You want to keep keep talking about it, keep keep talking about it, yeah You can’t keep keep walking around it, keep keep walking around it, yeah You’ve done nothing to gain ground, and time is passing now You’ve done nothing to gain ground, and time is passing now Sit there and whine about it Sit there and whine about it, yeah Cause I feel when it comes around Inside I know I will be let don’t And I won’t let it come around, no I won’t

Move 04:31

Some songs about love, some songs about love lost, and others about everything else to cover all the bases.
