RUNNING FROM THE SUN

Jet lagged & buzzing from Friday's show in Paris, I couldn't sleep...so I stayed up all night with Oko talking about color based dreams while blending these tracks together. Since the album came out, a lot of people on the road have been telling us they are curious to hear some of the unreleased music from the Kill For Love sessions...Recorded November 2009 through December 2011, these songs were all mixed between 4 & 6 a.m. After hours of tracking at the studio in Montreal, we'd clear the channels on the mixer, open a bottle of wine, & feel around in the dark...working our way through the atmospheric elements & peeling back layers of rhythm...throwing the songs into the abstract pile & playing them while driving home in the snow. In Amsterdam right now trying to upload it from the hotel. Fingers crossed...

This is a lullaby for you...

Sweet Dreams!

RED CAR

Do You Feel So Blue In Your Shiny Red Car ?

Will You See Your Friends Burn With You In The Fire ?

Standing Alone On A Beach

Slipping Away From The World

Or Did You Find Your Heaven Pass Beside The Road ?

Oh Red Car

Now That Your World Is So New

Hang The Tears From Your Grave

Spend My Nights Driving In Circles

Can I Still Feel The Same ?

Steering Off Of This Road

The Flames Become Glass

The Shadow In The Distance

You'll Never Pass

Oh Oh Red Car

Oh Baby Girl

KILL FOR LOVE

Everybody's Got A Secret To Hide

Everyone Is Slipping Backwards

I Drank The Water & I Felt Alright

I Took A Pill Almost Every Night

In My Mind I Was Waiting For Change

While The World Just Stayed The Same

I Can't Remember If I Like What I Said

I Can't Remember It Went Straight To My Head

I Kept A Bottle By The Foot Of The Bed

I Put A Pillow Right On Top Of My Head

But I Killed For Love

You Say You See It Almost Every Time

A Little Number Counting Back To Nine

I Can't Remember If I Like What I Said

I Can't Remember It Went Straight To My Head

But I Killed For Love

RUNNING FROM THE SUN

The Burning Flame Is Flickering Now

I Say Walk With Fire

It's The Same Dream Every Night

Don't Be Scared It'll Be Alright

& If You Hold Your Thoughts Too Tight

They'll Say You Can't Keep Running From The Sun

Morning Comes & They're Waking Up

Drinking Blood From A Paper Cup

It's The Same Old Dream We All Had Last Night

& They'll Be There Burning Next To You

If You Say Your Prayers Tonight

Be Careful What You Ask

& If You Lock Your Windows Tight

Daylight Still Peaks Through Cracks

Running From The Sun

THESE STREETS WILL NEVER LOOK THE SAME

Spent My Life Inside This Room

& Disappeared Some More Each Day

The Screen Stayed Flashing In My Mind

I Couldn't Run Away From You

You Kept Me Hanging On The Line

I Get So Lonely All The Time

I Try To Find My Way Back Home

These Streets Will Never Look The Same

My Broken Heart Erased Your Name

The Screen Stayed Flashing In My Mind

BLUE MOON

You Saw Me Standing Alone

Without A Dream In My Heart

Without A Love Of My Own

You Knew Just What I Was There For

You Heard Me Saying A Prayer For

Someone I Really Could Care For

Without A Love Of My Own
