No One Needs To Know (Music & lyrics by Brummel)
no one needs to know
one needs to know if a lover's being faithful
one needs to know if a lover's being true
one needs to know if a lover's being faithful
and i'm being faithful to you
i don't know what you're thinking we should do
i don't know if the words you say are true
but let me tell you this for sure
the things we're doing just aren't pure
and no one needs to know but me and you
no one needs to know
you don't know all the things she put me through
you don't know if the words i say are true
but let me tell you this tonight
the things we're doing just ain't right
and no one needs to know but me and you
no one needs to know
Barriers (Music & lyrics by Slegr)
black for the hearts below
white heat to melt the snow
bury the domino
a symbol of your past obsession
it's only a worthless invention
you and me, unsure
breaking down the barriers of love and war
we're breaking the barriers
criss cross the signal flow
life where no life should go
know what no one should know
when memory infact is fiction
you're choosing the world that you live in
you and me, unsure
breaking down the barriers of love and war
we're breaking the barriers
you and me, unsure
lost between the memories of life before
we built up the barriers
you and me, unsure
we're breaking the barriers
Eponine (Music & lyrics by Brummel)
whoa, my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?
can't you hear the words i sing?
a crush can never be resolved
it seems like every resolution ends in tragedy
singin' oh, my eponine
we swore we'd die to end this bolshevik
and now it's time
time to put an end to all your woe
whoa, my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?
can't you hear the words i sing?
you can't just let this world revolve (oh no)
it seems like every revolution ends in casualties
singin' oh, my eponine
before you go, just these last words for you
i love you so
and love can bring an end to all your woe
whoa, my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?
can't you hear the words i sing?
whoa, my eponine, you can't just let this world revolve
can't just let this world revolve
whoa, my eponine, can't you hear the words?
can't you hear these words?
Fight The Darkness (Music & lyrics by Slegr & Shane)
fight the darkness
we gotta fight the darkness
to prevent a fire
burn your dreams with insight
tear off your cloak
and throw it in the street
someone could use it anyway
and you'll never feel the cold
cause you'll never be alone
fight the darkness
we gotta fight the darkness
you present desire
silver strings on gold lyre
tear off our clothes
and throw them on the floor
now we don't need them anymore
and we'll never feel the cold
cause we'll never be alone
fight the darkness
we gotta fight the darkness
Heartache Vs Heartbreak (Music by Brummel, lyrics by Brummel & Wick)
heartache will get you down
but your body heals once your love has been found
heartbreak is something else
when you just can't cure the pain that you've found
and we almost believed it was love
yeah, we nearly perceived it as love
you know i would have sworn it was love
but my mind and body fail me now
and my shining armor's rusted now
it could have been love
it should have been love
you are catastrophe
and i rode your wave, it was carrying me
i am an island now, and it's nevermore
you're gonna be drifting up on to my shore
and we almost believed it was love
yeah we nearly perceived it as love
you know i would have sworn it was love
but my mind and body fail me now
(oh they fail me now)
and my shining armor's rusted now
(oh it's rusted now)
it could have been love
it should have been love
(introduction to "Incarnation Blues")
this one's for the puffers and the scribblers in the lot
save for whom the rose that blooms would be the flower time forgot
and the holy hell [they caught]
Incarnation Blues (Music by Brummel & Slegr, lyrics by Brummel)
knew we'd never stand a chance
we were slave to circumstance
maybe we'd have seen it through
if you were me and i was you
out of mind and body too
got the incarnation blues
know we'll never meet again
but in this life, you were a friend
so i'll hold out for the next
won't be so sorrowed, cursed and vexed
out of mind and body too
got the incarnation blues
cause time moves slowly
when you're alone with no way to be loved
Lunchbreak (Cobras Theme) (Music & lyrics by Slegr)
i met you on my lunch break
you were hanging with some other dude
and when you reached for the cupcake
i knew you were my type of girl
one day i know you'll need to follow me (one day we'll go)
i've got the key to room 117
oh, i'll be there
lies, some teacher told you you draw like you're blind
your classmates don't respect you
you're not into design
but just know this cobra's got your back
remember pasadena
the way you looked at me and smiled
somehow i knew that you would follow me (somehow i knew)
over the bridge to haunt the castle green
oh, i'll be there
lies, some teacher told you you draw like you're blind
your classmates don't respect you
you're not into design
but just know this cobra's got your back
as? es la vida
i need to let you know
that i can never let you go
someone you can't see believes
Motorology 3:39 (Music by Slegr & Brummel, lyrics by Brummel)
lie detector's on the blink, so comfort me with doublethink
and let's put wallpaper up between our ears
over the years
as my attention span disappears
blink and it's gone
a moment has never seemed so long
i'm still dreaming of clock towers and synchronicity
you call it coincidence -- i call it common sense
the truth will set you free if you've been slave to a lie
i'm waiting for a chance to make it known
i'm gonna be the one who keeps you from being alone
i call, i call, i call, i call
no one ever
used to be political, but now our state is critical
so let's put wallpaper up between our ears
once it was clear
maybe i lost it over the years
maybe it's here
buried beneath the dirt of fear
maybe it's still here
i'm still dreaming in sound waves that oscillate and amplify
the feeling of nothingness, oh what a subtle bliss
the truth will set you free if you've been slave to a lie
i'm waiting for a chance to make it known
i'm gonna be the one who keeps you from being alone
i've seen it all before, but i still can't tell
so you better ask somebody who knows
you better ask somebody who knows
I Wonder (Music & lyrics by Brummel)
hold on before you break me
give me one more chance
maybe i don't deserve it
but give me one more chance
to prove my to love you
you can exist in a world without being a part of the world
and somehow that's comforting when you're not where you want to be
but time it is a living thing
i wonder what today will bring
i wonder what the stars will have in store for us
if you hold on before you wake me
let me dream a dream
as unlikely as it seems
you can exist in a world without being a part of the world
and somehow that's comforting when you're not where you want to be
but faith, it is a knowing thing
relinquish all control of things
and submit yourself to loving in the highest light
Underneath My Tree (Music by Slegr, lyrics by Slegr & Brummel)
so long ago, i dreamt about a city built on rock and roll, when it fell
so long ago, i knew that it would happen but i couldn't get back to explain
so the future remained the same
now like the leaves you're gone
it's a fresh cut lawn that i left you on
in the pouring rain, i breathe your name and suddenly i feel happy again
so long ago, i saw you for a moment
but your figure got lost in the crowd
now i'm looking all over town
now like the leaves you're gone
it's a fresh cut lawn that i'm lying on
when i start to yawn, i breathe your name and suddenly i feel happy again
i see myself in all of you and all yourselves in me
shadows underneath my tree
there, hidden in the patterns that present themselves to me
shadows underneath my tree
i see myself in all of you and all yourselves in me
shadows underneath my tree
Straight Flush (Music & lyrics by Brummel)
no rush, straight flush
leave it up to me, babe
well, you just wait and see, babe
all of the hard work paying off
no rush, straight flush
well, if i was the king, babe
i'd buy you anything, babe
bet you won't regret giving me a run
if you want the odds i'll give you ten to one
well, what's it gonna be, babe?
play the hand you see, babe
bet you won't regret giving me a run
i'm sitting on an ace, and it ain't no bluff
if you want the odds i'll give you ten to one
no rush, straight flush
