What's So Bad (About Feeling Good) lyrics - ben lee
Well you're lookin' so compose as you're starin' down your nose at me, laughin' at the way that I dance
But I just keep on movin' while you're lookin' disapprovin'
I feel sad for you, you never take a chance
So let your feet start shuffling and let your hips swing.
I know your heart's as hungry as mine.
Close your eyes, look at me, open up your mind you'll see that we can share a moment, a moment in time
[Chorus]
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Well it's not all analysis or mathematic pression
oh all the simple things in life are not small
and all your daily drama and the politics of pleasure
well they really do not matter much at all
so let your words start spilling out against your will
and let your love minlge with mine
close your eyes, look at me, open up your heart you'll see that we can share a moment, a moment in time
[Chorus 4x]
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
No guilt. All Pleasure. C'mon I wanna hear you yell it now
No guilt. All Pleasure. C'mon everybody yell it now
No guilt. All Pleasure. I wanna hear you yell it baby
No guilt. All Pleasure. C'mon everybody...Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad about feeling good.
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
...about feeling good....about feeling good...what's so bad about feeling good...
But I just keep on movin' while you're lookin' disapprovin'
I feel sad for you, you never take a chance
So let your feet start shuffling and let your hips swing.
I know your heart's as hungry as mine.
Close your eyes, look at me, open up your mind you'll see that we can share a moment, a moment in time
[Chorus]
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Well it's not all analysis or mathematic pression
oh all the simple things in life are not small
and all your daily drama and the politics of pleasure
well they really do not matter much at all
so let your words start spilling out against your will
and let your love minlge with mine
close your eyes, look at me, open up your heart you'll see that we can share a moment, a moment in time
[Chorus 4x]
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
No guilt. All Pleasure. C'mon I wanna hear you yell it now
No guilt. All Pleasure. C'mon everybody yell it now
No guilt. All Pleasure. I wanna hear you yell it baby
No guilt. All Pleasure. C'mon everybody...Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad about feeling good.
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
Tell me what's so bad, about feeling good
...about feeling good....about feeling good...what's so bad about feeling good...
Surrender lyrics - ben lee
Well I have felt an angel's kiss
And I have seen the sweet sunset
I thought maybe I was this
I found out that I am that
Let go
Give in
Give up
Surrender
Let go

Surrender
All the things I long to touch
And all the tastes that seem so sweet
They don't matter all that much
When I'm falling at your feet
Let go

Oh yeah!

Sing lyrics - ben lee
Hey, you, back against the wall,
Wondering if the world will fall apart.
Hey, you, crying in your drink,
Looking for an answer to something in your heart.
You can find it anywhere. [x5]
Sing, it's your favorite song.
When you're singing along,
Nothing is wrong.
Everybody just sing,
For the people who can't.
It'll help them survive;
We are free and alive.
Everybody just sing.
Hey, girl, what's the matter now?
Feeling like each day it's something else.
Hey, you, waiting in the shallow,
Looking for a reason,
Find it in yourself.
You can find it anywhere. [x5]
Sing, it's your favorite song.
When you're singing along,
Nothing is wrong.
Everybody just sing,
For the people who can't.

When you're singing along,

It's the secret revealed,
If you wanna get real,

I Love Pop Music lyrics - ben lee
I love pop music, this is how we do it
It's politics you can romance to
I love pop music, sprinkle sugar through it,
Philosophy that you can dance to
The price of oil is at an all time high and rising (yeah)
Global warming threatens life as we know it on this planet (ohh ooh)
And leaders have not committed to a plan of action on renewable energy
The food crisis is currently affecting a hundred million people world wide
I love pop music, this is how we do it
It's politics you can romance to
I love pop music, sprinkle sugar through it,
Philosophy that you can dance to
Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone
Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone
There are over 6 billion people on this planet and not enough fresh drinking water (we're in trouble)
Religious intolerance creating geopolitical instability (shine a light)
Politicians battling each other like professional wrestlers (ooh)
Further division is not the answer, division is not the answer
I love pop music, this is how we do it
It's politics you can romance to
I love pop music, sprinkle sugar through it,
Philosophy that you can dance to
Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone
Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone
Turn up the radio
Greed and fear seem to be the driving forces of modern life
We're encouraged to consume and consume with no thought of where it all comes from, and where it all goes
Our lives are accelerating as we fall out of touch with nature and ancient myth
We're desperately in need of a brand new dream
I love pop music, this is how we do it
It's politics you can romance to
I love pop music, sprinkle sugar through it,
Philosophy that you can dance to
I love pop music, this is how we do it
It's politics you can romance to
I love pop music, sprinkle sugar through it,
Philosophy that you can dance to
(Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone
Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone)
I love pop music, this is how we do it
It's politics you can romance to
I love pop music, sprinkle sugar through it,
Philosophy that you can dance to
(Turn up the radio
And sing along, like you're all alone

Rise Up lyrics - ben lee
Whats in your heart
Whats in your head
Its one of the other these days
The quick or the dead
Sometimes we gotta fight
So don't you complain
Cause I never promised this
Would be easy babe
You and me are gonna rise up
and they will be surprised, yep
And every things weird
But soon they'll be gone
Cause are whispered words
are louder then bombs
so don't you lose faith
say its no fun
cause we've come to far to stop
before we're done
You and me are gonna rise up
and they will be surprised, yep
You and me are gonna rise up
and they will be surprised, yep
(They will be)
Sometimes we get lost
But soon we'll be found
This is far to important
To turn back now
You and me are gonna rise up
and they will be surprised, yep
You and me are gonna rise up
and they will be surprised, yep
They will be surprised, yep
They will be surprised, yep
Cause we're gonna rise up
Come on and rise
Whats in your head

The quick or the dead
Sometimes we gotta fight
So don't you complain
Cause I never promised this
Would be easy babe
You and me are gonna rise up

And every things weird
But soon they'll be gone
Cause are whispered words

Yoko Ono lyrics - ben lee
We're in trouble,
In a mess I've got a feeling
That only you can stop it
Cos it's over if we say so
They still don't get it
That it's not an easy job
To be the one who says yes
When the whole world only says no
Will they ever believe this is only a dream
When will they scream
Yoko Ono
Break me open
Tell me which way
Do we go now
Yoko Ono
I've been hoping
To change this world
Before it's over
We're all choking on the fog and war
Help us, we adore you
Ohh, Yoko Ono
Ohh, Yoko Ono
They're still reeling
From the fact you keep stealing
Their alpha male rock star
It was mine that opened his heart
And in that moment he could fly
And his music was a jet
And you were the reason
Cos you made every (thought?)
When will they realise that he only wanted to cry
When will they cry
Yoko Ono
Break me open
Tell me which way
Do we go now
Yoko Ono
I've been hoping
To change this world
Before it's over
We're all choking on the fog and war
Help us, we adore you
Ohh, Yoko Ono
Ohh, Yoko Ono
Ohh
Teach us how to cry
Teach us how to dream
Teach us how to die
Teach us how to scream
Teach us how to f*ck
Teach us how to pray
Teach us how to be
Man teach us!
Yoko Ono
Break me open
Tell me which way
Do we go now
Yoko Ono
I've been hoping
To change this world
Before it's over
We're all choking on the fog and war
Sorry if we hurt you
We're reaching out for something more
Help us, we adore you
Ohh, Yoko Ono
Ohh, Yoko Ono
Ohh, Yoko Ono
Ohh, Yoko Ono
In a mess I've got a feeling
That only you can stop it
Cos it's over if we say so

Boy With A Barbie lyrics - ben lee
I was a boy with a barbie when they teased me it was hard
Just a boy with a barbie from the start
Don't think it meant to break my heart
I was a boy with a barbie this is beautiful and true
I had a crush on every girl I saw they never knew
I've never told a single soul but you
[Chorus]
Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies
We don't have to play by their rules
I don't know where it started, all these roles and make believe
Just a boy with a totem make believe
Now it seems naive, I kept my heart upon my sleeve
I was a boy with a barbie and the teachers looked concerned
Although they tried to stop me getting burned
I guess they didn't realize it would hurt
[Chorus]
Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies
We don't have to play by their rules
Boys being prudes while the girls make thier moves
We don't have to play by their rules
So let them wear that dress, let them make that mess
Let em take that fall, let em kick that ball
And thank to the ones that tried to stop my fun
You made me what I am, you made me what I am
You made me a man
[Chorus]
Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies
We don't have to play by their rules
Boys staying home while their girls on the run
We don't have to play by their rules
Play by their rules
Just a boy with a barbie from the start
Don't think it meant to break my heart
I was a boy with a barbie this is beautiful and true
I had a crush on every girl I saw they never knew
I've never told a single soul but you
[Chorus]
Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies
We don't have to play by their rules
I don't know where it started, all these roles and make believe
Just a boy with a totem make believe
Now it seems naive, I kept my heart upon my sleeve
I was a boy with a barbie and the teachers looked concerned
Although they tried to stop me getting burned
I guess they didn't realize it would hurt
[Chorus]
Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies
We don't have to play by their rules
Boys being prudes while the girls make thier moves
We don't have to play by their rules
So let them wear that dress, let them make that mess
Let em take that fall, let em kick that ball
And thank to the ones that tried to stop my fun
You made me what I am, you made me what I am
You made me a man
[Chorus]
Boys with their barbies and girls with toy armies
We don't have to play by their rules
Boys staying home while their girls on the run
We don't have to play by their rules
Play by their rules
Bad Poetry lyrics - ben lee
Lovin' you makes me wanna spill my heart and soul.
Lovin' you makes me wanna tell you things you've never been told.
Lovin' you makes me wanna write bad poetry.
Loving you makes me wanna waste my time,
So tell me, what's it gonna take to change your mind?
(Lovin' you) How much bad poetry?
And I love you so much, please don't show anyone this stuff
It's between you and me, this bad poetry.
Lovin' you, maybe baby.
Lovin' you, by the phone alone.
Lovin' you, please I'm on my knees,

Lovin' you, fly me to the moon.
Lovin' you, makes me wanna write bad poetry.
And I love you so much, please don't show anyone this stuff

Blue Denim lyrics ben lee
Find the fine line between the good times
And hide 'em behind the locked door
I got nothing to say about puberty
That you haven't heard before
Brutal truths, the troubled youths
And boys, I'll tell you, champ
Spin the bottle, truth or dare
They're just trying to get in your pants
Blue denim, come on gimme danger
Blue denim, baby, break it in
Blue denim, girl you're a teenager
Blue denim, feel it on your skin
Darkness creeping 'round the corner
And I might just creep too
At your feet with your new power
We're all thinking about you
If you want a new sensation
And got something to prove
Teenage screams for your blue jeans
Make up an perfume
Blue denim, come on gimme danger
Blue denim, baby, break it in
Blue denim, girl you're a teenager
Blue denim, feel it on your skin [3x]
Blue denim, blue denim, said blue....
Who can say....what it all means....find the answer.....from your new jeans
Blue denim, come on gimme danger
Blue denim, baby, break it in
Blue denim, girl you're a teenager
Blue denim, feel it on your skin [4x]
And hide 'em behind the locked door
I got nothing to say about puberty
That you haven't heard before
Brutal truths, the troubled youths
And boys, I'll tell you, champ
Spin the bottle, truth or dare
They're just trying to get in your pants
Blue denim, come on gimme danger
Blue denim, baby, break it in
Blue denim, girl you're a teenager
Blue denim, feel it on your skin
Darkness creeping 'round the corner
And I might just creep too
At your feet with your new power
We're all thinking about you
If you want a new sensation
And got something to prove
Teenage screams for your blue jeans
Make up an perfume
Blue denim, come on gimme danger
Blue denim, baby, break it in
Blue denim, girl you're a teenager
Blue denim, feel it on your skin [3x]
Blue denim, blue denim, said blue....
Who can say....what it all means....find the answer.....from your new jeans
Blue denim, come on gimme danger
Blue denim, baby, break it in

Wake Up To America lyrics - ben lee
America is a big country
America is a big idea
I once got a fortune cookie that said
America is a place where people can invent themselves
So when I found myself making out with two girls at once at the Linkin Memorial in Washington, DC
I knew what that fortune cookie said had been
Beautiful, strange and true
[Chorus]
Wake up to America, up to America
Feel your broken heart
Beaten' like a drum
Wake up to America, up to America
Even in the dark
Shine for everyone
America, I've been reading your history
And alot of it sounds like Empire building
America the world needs a foreign policy of compassion
I still believe that somewhere underneath all this mess
America's a good country
Coz' I guess I believe that people in their hearts are esentially good
They just get greedy and they get scared
[Chorus]
America it must get so lonley being you sometimes
Up all night, no one to share the long drives with
Don't worry we won't let you fall asleep at the wheel
[Chorus]
Wake up to America, up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
America
Wake up to America, up to America
America is a big idea
I once got a fortune cookie that said
America is a place where people can invent themselves
So when I found myself making out with two girls at once at the Linkin Memorial in Washington, DC
I knew what that fortune cookie said had been
Beautiful, strange and true
[Chorus]
Wake up to America, up to America
Feel your broken heart
Beaten' like a drum
Wake up to America, up to America
Even in the dark
Shine for everyone
America, I've been reading your history
And alot of it sounds like Empire building
America the world needs a foreign policy of compassion
I still believe that somewhere underneath all this mess
America's a good country
Coz' I guess I believe that people in their hearts are esentially good
They just get greedy and they get scared
[Chorus]
America it must get so lonley being you sometimes
Up all night, no one to share the long drives with
Don't worry we won't let you fall asleep at the wheel
[Chorus]
Wake up to America, up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
Up to America
America
Wake up to America, up to America

If you've ever had to fight, you're a sister of mine
If your heart's got something to prove
Then you're a woman too
It's here, it's clear,
This world can be unfair,
There's always someone being kept down
It's true, it's true cause I'm a woman too try to shut me up and I'm gonna get loud
So hear me roar
If you've ever had to fight, you're a sister of mine
If your heart's got something to prove
Then you're a woman too
Are you a woman too?
The African,
He's a woman too
The American,
He's a woman too
The Palestinian,
He's a woman too
The Jew
He's a woman too
The freedom fighter
He's a woman too
The messiah
He's a woman too
This planet
It's a woman too
You,
You're a woman too
You're a woman too
You're a woman too
So hear me roar,
I will not be ignored
If you've ever had to fight you're a sister of mine
If your heart's got something to prove
Then hear me roar
I will not be ignored
If you've ever had to fight, you're a sister of mine
If your heart's got something to prove,
Then you're a woman too
You're a woman too
And I'm a woman too
And I'm a woman too
Song For The Divine Mother Of The Universe lyrics - ben lee
Sweet mother I’m coming home
Now I know I’m not alone
Cause I’ve been far
Now I’m close
Sweet mother I’m coming home
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything
Oh mother, please hold me tight
Cause mother I need some help tonight
What went wrong
Will soon be right
Oh mother, please hold me tight
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything
Oh mother, this world is strange
Love me mother and make me brave
In my dreams
On this stage
Oh mother, this world is strange
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything…
Now I know I’m not alone
Cause I’ve been far
Now I’m close
Sweet mother I’m coming home
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything
Oh mother, please hold me tight
Cause mother I need some help tonight
What went wrong
Will soon be right
Oh mother, please hold me tight
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything
Oh mother, this world is strange
Love me mother and make me brave
In my dreams
On this stage
Oh mother, this world is strange
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything
Tell me mother can you hear me sing
Your love is everything
Heart and soul
Breath and skin
Your love is everything…
Love Me Like The World Was Ending lyrics - ben lee
This is the first day of the future,
And all i want is you.
I wear a pair of socks you left here.
But i know, i know, i know, nobody could ever fill your shoes.
I can see so clearly when your smoke gets in my eyes.
Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies.
Baby can you hear the message i am sending?
Love me like the world is ending.
This is the last day of existence.
And all i want is you.
There's a certain sadness.
But i know, i know, i know, the sky is what makes the ocean blue.
I can see so clearly when your smoke gets in me.
Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies.
Baby can you hear the message i am sending?
Love me like the world is ending.
And they all say to pour it has to rain
So don't complain if we get wet in the deep end.
I can see when your smoke gets in my eyes.
Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies.
Baby, can you hear the message i am sending?
Love me like the world is ending.
And all i want is you.
I wear a pair of socks you left here.
But i know, i know, i know, nobody could ever fill your shoes.
I can see so clearly when your smoke gets in my eyes.
Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies.
Baby can you hear the message i am sending?
Love me like the world is ending.
This is the last day of existence.
And all i want is you.
There's a certain sadness.
But i know, i know, i know, the sky is what makes the ocean blue.
I can see so clearly when your smoke gets in me.
Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies.
Baby can you hear the message i am sending?
Love me like the world is ending.
And they all say to pour it has to rain
So don't complain if we get wet in the deep end.
I can see when your smoke gets in my eyes.
Please me with your promises and hurt me with your lies.
Baby, can you hear the message i am sending?
Love me like the world is ending.
American Television lyrics - ben lee
Back in the day, when i was a teenager
Out on my own fall in love with strangers.
Oh no desire, what are you putting me through?
You look beautiful in 1992.
I'm watching, what do i want to be?
Baby, i'm in love with possibility.
Give me sex, and give me patience.
I can't wait, i can't wait. change the station.
I'm watching american television.
Back in the day waiting for a sign to move.
I got nothing to say, i got something to prove.
Oh me, oh my, teenagers get bored.
You look beautiful in 1994.
I'm dreaming, it's not a fantasy.
Baby, i'm in love with reality.
Give me joy, give me emotion.
I can't wait, i can't wait, change the program.
I'm watching american television.
Here we are, now we are the boulevard.
Dropped off our fear at the junkyard.
Oh man, we can turn it up load.
You look beautiful, right here, right now.
I'm still watching, what do i want to be?
Baby i'm in love with possibility.
Give me sex, indecision.
I'm watching american television.
I'm watching, what do i want to be?
I'm watching america.
Out on my own fall in love with strangers.
Oh no desire, what are you putting me through?
You look beautiful in 1992.
I'm watching, what do i want to be?
Baby, i'm in love with possibility.
Give me sex, and give me patience.
I can't wait, i can't wait. change the station.
I'm watching american television.
Back in the day waiting for a sign to move.
I got nothing to say, i got something to prove.
Oh me, oh my, teenagers get bored.
You look beautiful in 1994.
I'm dreaming, it's not a fantasy.
Baby, i'm in love with reality.
Give me joy, give me emotion.
I can't wait, i can't wait, change the program.
I'm watching american television.
Here we are, now we are the boulevard.
Dropped off our fear at the junkyard.
Oh man, we can turn it up load.
You look beautiful, right here, right now.
I'm still watching, what do i want to be?

Birds And Bees lyrics - ben lee
I get the feeling everyone's feeling the same
Like somebody somewhere should
Be calling their name
Praying in churches or out in the clubs
Everyone's looking, looking for love
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
It's not a secret, it's not a crime
I've never done this before
Well neither have I
So I blow out the candles
And I'm making a wish
Come over here babe
And give me a kiss
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
And it's natural baby
I get the feeling everyone's feeling the same
You lean in close and you whisper my name
You're whispering
You're whispering
Life is but a dream
And you are so beautiful
You make me want to scream
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
And it's natural baby
And it's natural baby
Like somebody somewhere should
Be calling their name
Praying in churches or out in the clubs
Everyone's looking, looking for love
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
It's not a secret, it's not a crime
I've never done this before
Well neither have I
So I blow out the candles
And I'm making a wish
Come over here babe
And give me a kiss
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
And it's natural baby
I get the feeling everyone's feeling the same
You lean in close and you whisper my name
You're whispering
You're whispering
Life is but a dream
And you are so beautiful
You make me want to scream
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
Birds and bees
And songs like these
Cos we want what we want
And it's natural baby
And it's natural baby
And it's natural baby
Is This How Love's Supposed To Feel? lyrics - ben lee
You kissed me slow
It happened way too fast
I told myself
There's no way it would last
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
And all my friends
Are saying it's not right
I want to sleep
Beside you every night
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
So say you'll stay
I promise I won't go
There's just one thing
I really need to know
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
It happened way too fast
I told myself
There's no way it would last
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
And all my friends
Are saying it's not right
I want to sleep
Beside you every night
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
So say you'll stay
I promise I won't go
There's just one thing
I really need to know
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Is this how love's supposed to feel?
Blush lyrics - ben lee
Mon cmon cmon tell me your name
I think we spent a past life together
Cmon cmon cmon tell me your name
I think we spent a past life together
So good to see you again
Anytime I feel the rush
I might say something to make you blush
When all the way is not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
I don't I don't I don't want nothing back
I wanna love you like the sun loves you
I don't I don't I don't want nothing back
I wanna love you like the sun loves you
I bet you've never been loved like that
Anytime I feel the rush
I might say something to make you blush
When all the way is not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
So walk away and act tough
When I say something to make you blush
Cos always I not enough
Some might say my love will make you blush
Cos I know
It's cold
So stand firm
And be bold

It burns
So hold tight
And stand firm
Cos hurt is the question
Cos hurt is the question
Cos hurt is the question
Cos hurt is the question
And love is the answer
And love is the answer
And love is the answer
And love is the answer
Anytime I feel the rush
I might say something to make you blush

Numb lyrics - ben lee
I'm in surgery
It's an emergency
It just occurred to me
Ironically I caught a disease
They take a piece of me
Enjoy the scenery
Counting back from ten but
I will never fall asleep
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I'm writing pop songs
Done it for so long
Sometimes I dream about
A chorus that's so clever it's dumb
And now they're telling me
The music industry
You can stay if you behave
Be a good boy go to sleep
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
So if you're asking me
What you mean to me
This is a dream to me
A theme for me
I gotta believe
In what you're telling me
In what you're selling me
In what's compelling me to feel
The only reason I need
Here comes the drum beat
I'm moving my feet
The only reason I need
The only reason I need
And a guiter chord
I feel so sure
The only reason I need
The only reason I need
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
It's an emergency
It just occurred to me
Ironically I caught a disease
They take a piece of me
Enjoy the scenery
Counting back from ten but
I will never fall asleep
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I'm writing pop songs
Done it for so long
Sometimes I dream about
A chorus that's so clever it's dumb
And now they're telling me
The music industry
You can stay if you behave
Be a good boy go to sleep
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
So if you're asking me
What you mean to me
This is a dream to me
A theme for me
I gotta believe
In what you're telling me
In what you're selling me
In what's compelling me to feel
The only reason I need
Here comes the drum beat
I'm moving my feet
The only reason I need
The only reason I need
And a guiter chord
I feel so sure
The only reason I need
The only reason I need
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
I refuse to go numb
So let the music come
Let the music come
Let the music come
What Would Jay-Z Do? lyrics - ben lee
I want to look sharp
Be strong, refuse when I know it's wrong.
I want you to know my name
I want the hottest chick in the game
I want a big heart
And I want a big car
I want to be a self-made man
I want to know the things that he understands
What does he do when he's lost and confused?
What would Jay-Z do?
When i'm feeling blue
What would Jay-Z do?
I want to pay my dues,
A better life I want to choose
I want to seize the day,
Vacation in Saint-Tropez
I want to grow through the pain
I want to change the game
But it's times like these when life brings me to my knees
What does he do when it's hard to get through?
What would Jay-Z do?
I'm talking to you
What would Jay-Z do?
Cause you are you
And I am not
So come on, show me what you got
You are you
And I am not
So come on, show me what you got
What would Jay-Z do?
What would Jay-Z do?
What would Jay-Z do?
I'm talking to you
What would Jay-Z do?
Be strong, refuse when I know it's wrong.
I want you to know my name
I want the hottest chick in the game
I want a big heart
And I want a big car
I want to be a self-made man
I want to know the things that he understands
What does he do when he's lost and confused?
What would Jay-Z do?
When i'm feeling blue
What would Jay-Z do?
I want to pay my dues,
A better life I want to choose
I want to seize the day,
Vacation in Saint-Tropez
I want to grow through the pain
I want to change the game
But it's times like these when life brings me to my knees
What does he do when it's hard to get through?
What would Jay-Z do?
I'm talking to you
What would Jay-Z do?
Cause you are you
And I am not
So come on, show me what you got
You are you
And I am not
So come on, show me what you got
What would Jay-Z do?
What would Jay-Z do?
What would Jay-Z do?
I'm talking to you
What would Jay-Z do?
Sex Without Love lyrics - ben lee
I saw you
At a party
And asked you if you'd like the dance with me
You asked me
For a ride home
And I thought that I should take a chance on you
First we're talking
Then we're kissing
Finding out what I've been missing
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought you wanted me
I thought you wanted me
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought I wanted you
I thought I wanted you
To lay down
Lay down beside me
But here we are and it feels weird with you
I wish someone would tell me
Where is my baby
And how I found myself right here tonight
This is not my kind of danger
Taking candy from a stranger
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought you wanted me
I thought you wanted me
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought I wanted you
I thought I wanted you
This whole thing is getting strange
I sorta wish I never came
All this talk and playing games
Is slowly driving
Me insane
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought you wanted me
I thought you wanted me
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought I wanted you
I thought I wanted you
Oh oh
Sex without love
Oh oh
Sex without love
Oh oh
Sex without love
Oh oh
Sex without love
At a party
And asked you if you'd like the dance with me
You asked me
For a ride home
And I thought that I should take a chance on you
First we're talking
Then we're kissing
Finding out what I've been missing
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought you wanted me
I thought you wanted me
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought I wanted you
I thought I wanted you
To lay down
Lay down beside me
But here we are and it feels weird with you
I wish someone would tell me
Where is my baby
And how I found myself right here tonight
This is not my kind of danger
Taking candy from a stranger
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought you wanted me
I thought you wanted me
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought I wanted you
I thought I wanted you
This whole thing is getting strange
I sorta wish I never came
All this talk and playing games
Is slowly driving
Me insane
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought you wanted me
I thought you wanted me
Heaven's above
Sex without love
I thought I wanted you
I thought I wanted you
Oh oh
Sex without love
Oh oh
Sex without love
Oh oh
Sex without love
Oh oh
Sex without love
Home lyrics - ben lee
Well thanks for coming to dinner
And yeah I'm glad we're friends
But honestly I'm not ready
For this evening to end
It's only 10 o'clock
And I don't feel much tired at all
When I get a taste of something
I always want some more
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
You stole my heart
I should have known
I want to take you home
So how about a cup of coffee
Or we could get a snack
Or if you're heading uptown
Maybe we could share a cab
I don't wanna be rude
Don't mean to be obscene
It's just that I feel so much better
When you're next to me
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
It started big
The feeling's grown
I want to take you home
And I could live without you
I could live without you
I could live without you
I just don't want to
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
You stole my heart
I should have known
I want to take you home
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
It started big
The feeling's grown
I want to take you home
And yeah I'm glad we're friends
But honestly I'm not ready
For this evening to end
It's only 10 o'clock
And I don't feel much tired at all
When I get a taste of something
I always want some more
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
You stole my heart
I should have known
I want to take you home
So how about a cup of coffee
Or we could get a snack
Or if you're heading uptown
Maybe we could share a cab
I don't wanna be rude
Don't mean to be obscene
It's just that I feel so much better
When you're next to me
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
It started big
The feeling's grown
I want to take you home
And I could live without you
I could live without you
I could live without you
I just don't want to
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
You stole my heart
I should have known
I want to take you home
I'm tired of being alone
I want to take you home
It started big
The feeling's grown
I want to take you home
So Hungry lyrics - ben lee
It's strange
It's mad
To want someone so bad
And can't
You tell
Feel it in every cell
Our eyes
They meet
I won't accept defeat
I feel
Brand new
Can't keep my hands off you
And we get so hungry
We eat each other alive
We get so hungry
Only the strong survive
We get so hungry
Cannot get you off my mind
If hearts
Could speak
Some things I can't repeat
Cos you
Were sent
To steal my innocence
It's all
So much
Your love your words your touch
Your glare
Your scent
Makes me believe again
We get so hungry
We eat each other alive
We get so hungry
Only the strong survive
We get so hungry
Cannot get you off my mind
We get so hungry hungry
We sleep
We dream
Discuss the things we've seen
We take
We give
This is the way we live
And we get so hungry
We eat each other again
We get so hungry
Only the strong survive
We get so hungry
Cannot get you off my mind
We get so hungry
We get so hungry
We get so hungry
It's mad
To want someone so bad
And can't
You tell
Feel it in every cell
Our eyes
They meet
I won't accept defeat
I feel
Brand new
Can't keep my hands off you
And we get so hungry
We eat each other alive
We get so hungry
Only the strong survive
We get so hungry
Cannot get you off my mind
If hearts
Could speak
Some things I can't repeat
Cos you
Were sent
To steal my innocence
It's all
So much
Your love your words your touch
Your glare
Your scent
Makes me believe again
We get so hungry
We eat each other alive

This is the way we live
And we get so hungry
We eat each other again
We get so hungry
Only the strong survive
We get so hungry
Cannot get you off my mind
We get so hungry
We get so hungry
We get so hungry
Just Say Yes lyrics - ben lee
It's not hard to see
The truth will set you free
So you take what you want
And I'll take what I need
What's the point in praying
If you don't mean what you're saying
Everything you've chased is here and now
Love is a reason to exist
So let it all go and just say yes
If it feels right then why resist
Throw down your arms and just say yes
And I was often told
To mine a heart of gold
To find a destiny
Waiting there for me
There's no point in demanding
Total understanding
When everything you've craved is here and now
Love is a reason to exist
So let it all go and just say yes
If it feels right then why resist
Throw down your arms and just say yes
Just say yes, Just say yes
There's nothing to be 'shamed of
If it's hurting you're afraid of
Everything you need is here and now
Love is a reason to exist
So let it all go and just say yes
If it feels right then why resist
Throw down your arms and just say yes
Just say yes, Just say yes
Just say yes
Just say yes
Just say yes
The truth will set you free
So you take what you want
And I'll take what I need
What's the point in praying
If you don't mean what you're saying
Everything you've chased is here and now
Love is a reason to exist
So let it all go and just say yes
If it feels right then why resist
Throw down your arms and just say yes
And I was often told
To mine a heart of gold
To find a destiny
Waiting there for me
There's no point in demanding
Total understanding
When everything you've craved is here and now
Love is a reason to exist
So let it all go and just say yes
If it feels right then why resist
Throw down your arms and just say yes
Just say yes, Just say yes
There's nothing to be 'shamed of
If it's hurting you're afraid of
Everything you need is here and now
Love is a reason to exist
So let it all go and just say yes
If it feels right then why resist
Throw down your arms and just say yes
Just say yes, Just say yes
Just say yes
Just say yes
Just say yes

The moon sheds light across the end of the bed.
You made me wait but now i'm touching your leg.
And i remember all the little things you said,
"quesadillas, made with cheese" and "a rock band who went japanese."
So for once in my life, i saw what i wanted and took a bite.
I picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.
Your love got big, your drugs got worse each afternoon.
Like bacon at a bah mitzvah, like a lead balloon.
And who's to say what really happened in that room each day?
I was looking for a bride, you were looking for a groom.
So for once in your life, you saw what you wanted and you took a bite.
You picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.
And all you people are the heroes i'd known.
We're staring off the edge into the unknown.
We are not there yet but we cannot go home.
So we cry, and we sing.
Yeah, i remember everything.
For once in our lives, we saw what we wanted and took a bite.
We picked the fruit from the tree.
And it was ripe.
You made me wait but now i'm touching your leg.
And i remember all the little things you said,
"quesadillas, made with cheese" and "a rock band who went japanese."
So for once in my life, i saw what i wanted and took a bite.
I picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.
Your love got big, your drugs got worse each afternoon.
Like bacon at a bah mitzvah, like a lead balloon.
And who's to say what really happened in that room each day?
I was looking for a bride, you were looking for a groom.
So for once in your life, you saw what you wanted and you took a bite.
You picked the fruit from the tree and it was ripe.
And all you people are the heroes i'd known.
We're staring off the edge into the unknown.
We are not there yet but we cannot go home.
So we cry, and we sing.
Yeah, i remember everything.
For once in our lives, we saw what we wanted and took a bite.
We picked the fruit from the tree.
And it was ripe.
Whatever It Is lyrics - ben lee
Are you changing?
Do you know it?
Do you feel it?
Do you know?
But you're waiting
While you're waiting
Why are you waiting?
Just do it - whatever it is
There are secrets
There are places
There are places you can go to
They might tell you
Yeah they'll tell you that you shouldn't
But do it - whatever it is
Go do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
And you're dancing
And you're looking kinda crazy
And your arms are making little circles
There are reasons
There are reasons you can find out
So do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Go do it - whatever it is
Whatever it is
It's so quiet
And you're dreaming
I turn to you and say
"Awake is the new sleep"
So wake up
And do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Cos awake is the new sleep
Awake is the new sleep
So wake up
Wake up
And do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Go do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Whatever it is
Do you know it?
Do you feel it?
Do you know?
But you're waiting
While you're waiting
Why are you waiting?
Just do it - whatever it is
There are secrets
There are places
There are places you can go to
They might tell you
Yeah they'll tell you that you shouldn't
But do it - whatever it is
Go do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
And you're dancing
And you're looking kinda crazy
And your arms are making little circles
There are reasons
There are reasons you can find out
So do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Go do it - whatever it is
Whatever it is
It's so quiet
And you're dreaming
I turn to you and say
"Awake is the new sleep"
So wake up
And do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Cos awake is the new sleep
Awake is the new sleep
So wake up
Wake up
And do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Go do it - whatever it is
Just do it - whatever it is
Whatever it is
Gamble Everything For Love lyrics - ben lee
Gamble everything for love

Are you cold baby I could wrap you up
Wrap you up in my love

Begin lyrics - ben lee
I'm walking down Broadway
Each footstep is a new love letter
I'm trying to make eye contact
With each and every stranger that I pass
I'm thinking about the city
It's living proof people need to be together
I'm thinking about how I just wanna open up
And give and give and give
And its ok for you to care
Cos I can feel you in the air
And while you wonder
How's this gonna end
I only wanted to begin
I'm thinking about desire
I've had to learn how to sin successfully
I'm thinking about bliss
And bliss is all dressed up and there's no one to dance with
Remembering her smile
And the nuclear bomb and the reasons I loved her
I'm walking through central park
I'm in a foreign country and I'm waiting for a sign
And its ok for you to care
Cos I'm not going anywhere
And while you wonder
If you should let me in
I only wanted to begin
I'm still singing
Twisting new melodies, breaking arrangements
I'm thinking about my heart
I guess youve heard, sometimes its heavy
But I just keep moving
When I hit a wall I look up at the sky
I'm thinking about my maker
And despite all this I know she wont give up on me
And its ok for you to care
Cos I can taste you everywhere
And while its true all straight things must bend
I only wanted to begin
Each footstep is a new love letter
I'm trying to make eye contact
With each and every stranger that I pass
I'm thinking about the city
It's living proof people need to be together
I'm thinking about how I just wanna open up
And give and give and give
And its ok for you to care
Cos I can feel you in the air
And while you wonder
How's this gonna end
I only wanted to begin
I'm thinking about desire
I've had to learn how to sin successfully
I'm thinking about bliss
And bliss is all dressed up and there's no one to dance with
Remembering her smile
And the nuclear bomb and the reasons I loved her
I'm walking through central park
I'm in a foreign country and I'm waiting for a sign
And its ok for you to care
Cos I'm not going anywhere
And while you wonder
If you should let me in
I only wanted to begin
I'm still singing
Twisting new melodies, breaking arrangements
I'm thinking about my heart
I guess youve heard, sometimes its heavy
But I just keep moving
When I hit a wall I look up at the sky
I'm thinking about my maker
And despite all this I know she wont give up on me
And its ok for you to care
Cos I can taste you everywhere
And while its true all straight things must bend
I only wanted to begin
Catch My Disease lyrics - ben lee
My head is a box filled with nothing
And that's the way I like it
My garden's a secret compartment
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
Your body's a dream that turns violent
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
The winter is long in the city
And that's the way I like it
So please
Baby please
Open your heart
And catch my disease
I was backstage in Pomona
And that's the way I like it
She drank beer with coca-cola
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
She told me about the winds from Santa Ana
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
She told me she'd love me like fireworks
And that's the way I like it
So please
Baby please
Open your eyes
And catch my disease
So please
Baby please
C'mon
And catch my disease
They play good charlotte on the radio
And that's the way I like it
They play sleepy Jackson on the radio
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
I hear Beyonce on the radio
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
They don't play me on the radio
But that's the way I like it
So please
Baby please
Open your heart
And catch my disease
So please
Baby please
C'mon
And catch my disease
And that's the way I like it
My garden's a secret compartment
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
Your body's a dream that turns violent
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
The winter is long in the city
And that's the way I like it
So please
Baby please
Open your heart
And catch my disease
I was backstage in Pomona
And that's the way I like it
She drank beer with coca-cola
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
She told me about the winds from Santa Ana
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
She told me she'd love me like fireworks
And that's the way I like it
So please
Baby please
Open your eyes
And catch my disease
So please
Baby please
C'mon
And catch my disease
They play good charlotte on the radio
And that's the way I like it
They play sleepy Jackson on the radio
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
I hear Beyonce on the radio
And that's the way I like it
And that's the way I like it
They don't play me on the radio
But that's the way I like it
So please
Baby please
Open your heart
And catch my disease
So please
Baby please
C'mon
And catch my disease
Apple Candy lyrics - ben lee
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna feel what he felt
I wanna go where he's been
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna hear your secrets
I want you and I want him
Cos you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
And the edge in your affection broke my skin
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna touch what he touched
Call me by his name
Cos I know you made a promise
And told him he's your lover
Make me feel the same
Cos you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
And I'm feeling so much younger than my years
But I wanna know what he knows
I wanna go where he's been
I want you and I want him
So you said "go find some trouble"
And you would do the same
Then we opened up our hearts
So we could change
But you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
And you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna feel what he felt
I wanna touch what he touched
I wanna go where he's been
I want you and I want him
I wanna feel what he felt
I wanna go where he's been
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna hear your secrets
I want you and I want him
Cos you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
And the edge in your affection broke my skin
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna touch what he touched
Call me by his name
Cos I know you made a promise
And told him he's your lover
Make me feel the same
Cos you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
And I'm feeling so much younger than my years
But I wanna know what he knows
I wanna go where he's been
I want you and I want him
So you said "go find some trouble"
And you would do the same
Then we opened up our hearts
So we could change
But you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
And you smell like apple candy
And we're singing hallelujah
I wanna know what he knows
I wanna feel what he felt
I wanna touch what he touched
I wanna go where he's been
I want you and I want him
Ache For You lyrics - ben lee
In the rain
I'm walking slowly
There's a light
In your apartment
I don't know why
I ache for you
And its alright if
You're undecided
Or if you're scared
That you might like it
Or if its true
I ache for you
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You're the secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
Our love's confusing
But it never gets dull
It's getting late
Anticipation
And if we talk
Communication
And then you'll know
I ache for you
And yeah sometimes
It's just desire
Another problem that you really don't want
But anyway
I ache for you
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You know the secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
My love's confusing
But it never gets dull
I ache for you
And I'm tired
Of so much wanting
And what if -
Don't even think it
But why not?
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You put a secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
My love's confusing
But it never gets dull
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You're the secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
My love's confusing
But it never gets dull
I ache for you
I'm walking slowly
There's a light
In your apartment
I don't know why
I ache for you
And its alright if
You're undecided
Or if you're scared
That you might like it
Or if its true
I ache for you
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You're the secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
Our love's confusing
But it never gets dull
It's getting late
Anticipation
And if we talk
Communication
And then you'll know
I ache for you
And yeah sometimes
It's just desire
Another problem that you really don't want
But anyway
I ache for you
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You know the secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
My love's confusing
But it never gets dull
I ache for you
And I'm tired
Of so much wanting
And what if -
Don't even think it
But why not?
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You put a secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
My love's confusing
But it never gets dull
There's no rhyme
And there's no reason
You're the secret in the back of my skull
There's no logic
So please believe me
My love's confusing
But it never gets dull
I ache for you
Into The Dark lyrics - ben lee
I'm feeling better
Since I surrendered
You cant climb till youre ready to fall
You're not a landmine
You're not a goldmine
No, you're not mine at all
So tell me baby
Can you hear me?
I sent a message out into the dark
It's a mystery
When you're near me
I've gotta find my way to your heart
I learned my lesson
First impressions
Are more often right than wrong
It's not a slow dance
This modern romance
Feels like we've already waiting too long
Don't worry baby
About how it should be
I sent a message out into the dark
I'd rather talk to you
About how it could be
I've gotta find my way to your heart
I was one of those
Breathing tornados
But now I live at the eye of the storm
And its all faded
That sense of separation
Since I let your love keep me warm
You tell me baby
That you can feel me
I sent a message out into the dark
When I kiss you
Thats the real me
I've gotta find my way to your heart
So tell me baby
Can you hear me?
I sent a message out into the dark
It's a mystery
When you're near me
I've gotta find my way to your heart
Since I surrendered
You cant climb till youre ready to fall
You're not a landmine
You're not a goldmine
No, you're not mine at all
So tell me baby
Can you hear me?
I sent a message out into the dark
It's a mystery
When you're near me
I've gotta find my way to your heart
I learned my lesson
First impressions
Are more often right than wrong
It's not a slow dance
This modern romance
Feels like we've already waiting too long
Don't worry baby
About how it should be
I sent a message out into the dark
I'd rather talk to you
About how it could be
I've gotta find my way to your heart
I was one of those
Breathing tornados
But now I live at the eye of the storm
And its all faded
That sense of separation
Since I let your love keep me warm
You tell me baby
That you can feel me
I sent a message out into the dark
When I kiss you
Thats the real me
I've gotta find my way to your heart
So tell me baby
Can you hear me?
I sent a message out into the dark
It's a mystery
When you're near me
I've gotta find my way to your heart
No Right Angles lyrics - ben lee
I've been thinking 'bout the straight and narrow
Slip sliding round the back of my hand
Keep turning and its almost tomorrow
I'll find a way to make you understand
There are no right angles in my life
No right angles in my life
Right now I'm hearing nothing but silence
High beams are on - I can feel you
Every piece contains a little bit of violence
And you've changed so much but its still you
No right angles in my life
No right angles in my life
So breathe
Feel the open space
Leave it all behind
Coming into grace
No right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
Suspicious minds and you're back on the warpath
All the things you think are up my sleeve
Though you tell me that I'm just like a circle
Somehow you still don't believe
There are no right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
So dream
Let your body play
Anyone in need
Give it all away
No right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
I've been thinking 'bout the straight and narrow
Slip sliding round the back of my hand
Keep turning and its almost tomorrow
Find a way to make you understand
Please
Taste the sea you sail
Baby I believe
There's no way you can fail
No right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
Slip sliding round the back of my hand
Keep turning and its almost tomorrow
I'll find a way to make you understand
There are no right angles in my life
No right angles in my life
Right now I'm hearing nothing but silence
High beams are on - I can feel you
Every piece contains a little bit of violence
And you've changed so much but its still you
No right angles in my life
No right angles in my life
So breathe
Feel the open space
Leave it all behind
Coming into grace
No right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
Suspicious minds and you're back on the warpath
All the things you think are up my sleeve
Though you tell me that I'm just like a circle
Somehow you still don't believe
There are no right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
So dream
Let your body play
Anyone in need
Give it all away
No right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
I've been thinking 'bout the straight and narrow
Slip sliding round the back of my hand
Keep turning and its almost tomorrow
Find a way to make you understand
Please
Taste the sea you sail
Baby I believe
There's no way you can fail
No right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
There are no right angles in my life
Get Gotten lyrics - ben lee
Ok baby
What'll it be?
I asked my friends and they all agreed
You're exactly the kinda trouble that I need
I've got songs that give
I've got songs that prove
Songs I use
When I want to seduce
And I want to seduce you
Why wont you let me?
I wanna get you
So get gotten
I wont stop
Till I get to the bottom
I wanna get you
So get gotten
I've got big big dreams
In a small small world
And I'm using god
To pick up girls
And I'm willing
To put it all on the line
I've got words that destroy
Words that build
I use words
And I feel no guilt about it
I've got words that got bump in the night
It's no secret
That ive fallen
I wont stop till I get to the bottom
It's no secret that I've fallen
Cos first you're ripe
Then you're rotten
Don't stop till you get to bottom
First you're ripe
And then rotten
Once I knew
But I've forgotten
I'll find out when I get to the bottom
Once I knew
But I've forgotten
I wanna get you
So get gotten
I wont stop till I get to the bottom
I wanna get you
So get gotten
What'll it be?
I asked my friends and they all agreed
You're exactly the kinda trouble that I need
I've got songs that give
I've got songs that prove
Songs I use
When I want to seduce
And I want to seduce you
Why wont you let me?
I wanna get you
So get gotten
I wont stop
Till I get to the bottom
I wanna get you
So get gotten
I've got big big dreams
In a small small world
And I'm using god
To pick up girls
And I'm willing
To put it all on the line
I've got words that destroy
Words that build
I use words
And I feel no guilt about it
I've got words that got bump in the night
It's no secret
That ive fallen
I wont stop till I get to the bottom
It's no secret that I've fallen
Cos first you're ripe
Then you're rotten
Don't stop till you get to bottom
First you're ripe
And then rotten
Once I knew
But I've forgotten
I'll find out when I get to the bottom
Once I knew
But I've forgotten
I wanna get you
So get gotten
I wont stop till I get to the bottom
I wanna get you
So get gotten
Close I've Come lyrics - ben lee
I slipped into a house
To escape my enemies
And opened the door to another world
Of lovers and whores
But I loved you more
Than any of them and ever before
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
The universe is brought back
From the brink of destruction
Every time you smile
But I can see things clearer
It's all smoke and mirrors
Yeah you broke my fucking heart but I still want you
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
One can only guess
What would happen if
I got all my questions answered
Then we'd know for sure
Who's got the quickest draw
Who's laying dead and who's above the law
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
To escape my enemies
And opened the door to another world
Of lovers and whores
But I loved you more
Than any of them and ever before
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
The universe is brought back
From the brink of destruction
Every time you smile
But I can see things clearer
It's all smoke and mirrors
Yeah you broke my fucking heart but I still want you
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
One can only guess
What would happen if
I got all my questions answered
Then we'd know for sure
Who's got the quickest draw
Who's laying dead and who's above the law
Look how close I've come
I'm far away
The Debt Collectors lyrics - ben lee
In my dreams they're coming to collect
I've got something that they want
And I don't know what it is
But you hid it in my luggage
Like a needle in a haystack
So I'm running like a criminal
I'm sneaking round each corner
In a phone booth, through a window
And the air is cold around me
And I'm running for my life
Borrow, beg or steal
Everything is real
One day you might feel
Alright again
So I kissed you on the lips
You were sleeping
Like a racehorse in the evening
All that power, motivation
And the endless broken omens
And I don't know if I love you
But I really wanna own you
And I've kept you like a secret
From the moment that I found you
We can make a deal
Everything is real
One day I might feel
Alright again
And I can write my way
Out of this pain
That's a promise that you made me
In a letter that you sent me
From Chicago on a freezing day in winter
Bow I feel a little lighter
But it really doesn't matter
Cos this love is not obedient
It's got its own agenda
And it wants to take me over
And it wants to pull you under
And it would like nothing better
Than to tear us both to pieces
And it wont do what its told
Show me how you feel
Everything is real
One day it'll be
Alright again
One day it'll be
Alright again
I've got something that they want
And I don't know what it is
But you hid it in my luggage
Like a needle in a haystack
So I'm running like a criminal
I'm sneaking round each corner
In a phone booth, through a window
And the air is cold around me
And I'm running for my life
Borrow, beg or steal
Everything is real
One day you might feel
Alright again
So I kissed you on the lips
You were sleeping
Like a racehorse in the evening
All that power, motivation
And the endless broken omens
And I don't know if I love you
But I really wanna own you
And I've kept you like a secret
From the moment that I found you
We can make a deal
Everything is real
One day I might feel
Alright again
And I can write my way
Out of this pain
That's a promise that you made me
In a letter that you sent me
From Chicago on a freezing day in winter
Bow I feel a little lighter
But it really doesn't matter
Cos this love is not obedient
It's got its own agenda
And it wants to take me over
And it wants to pull you under
And it would like nothing better
Than to tear us both to pieces
And it wont do what its told
Show me how you feel
Everything is real
One day it'll be
Alright again
One day it'll be
Alright again
We're All In This Together lyrics - ben lee
Woke up this morning
I suddenly realized
We're all in this together
I started smiling
Cos you were smiling
And were all in this together
I'm made of atoms
You're made of atoms
And were all in this together
And long division
Just doesn't matter
Cos were all in this together
I saw you walking
In the city
We're all in this together
The city's changing
Cos we are changing
And were all in this together
Every twelve seconds
Someone remembers
That were all in this together
In the kitchen
Of your rent-control apartment
We're all in this together
C'mon baby
I dont mean to rush you
I only wanted to reach out and touch you
I've gotta start to open my heart
I know you think
About jumping ship before it sinks
But were all in this together
Ask a scientist
It's quantum physics
We're all in this together
And on the subway
We feel like strangers
But were all in this together
Yeah I love you and you love her
And she loves him
But were all in this together
Y'know baby
There's never been protection
In all the history of human connection
C'mon darling
It's alright to show me
You don't ever need to be lonely
Once you start to open your heart
I saw you crying
I started crying
Cos were all in this together
And then religion
It's a big decision
But were all in this together
We're all in this together
I suddenly realized
We're all in this together
I started smiling
Cos you were smiling
And were all in this together
I'm made of atoms
You're made of atoms
And were all in this together
And long division
Just doesn't matter
Cos were all in this together
I saw you walking
In the city
We're all in this together
The city's changing
Cos we are changing
And were all in this together
Every twelve seconds
Someone remembers
That were all in this together
In the kitchen
Of your rent-control apartment
We're all in this together
C'mon baby
I dont mean to rush you
I only wanted to reach out and touch you
I've gotta start to open my heart
I know you think
About jumping ship before it sinks
But were all in this together
Ask a scientist
It's quantum physics
We're all in this together
And on the subway
We feel like strangers
But were all in this together
Yeah I love you and you love her
And she loves him
But were all in this together
Y'know baby
There's never been protection
In all the history of human connection
C'mon darling
It's alright to show me
You don't ever need to be lonely
Once you start to open your heart
I saw you crying
I started crying
Cos were all in this together
And then religion
It's a big decision
But were all in this together
We're all in this together
Light lyrics - ben lee
You are the one who brings the weather
You are a dream I've had forever
You know exactly what I'm wishing
You're gonna love me into submission
Feelings I had
While at your feet
Those kind of things
I cant repeat
You're gonna fill their world
With light
You put the point in exclamation
You took a day to build a nation
You're gonna teach me how to live
You're gonna teach me how to give
Feelings I had
Well who can say?
I cant explain them
Anyway
You're gonna fill their world
With light
You're gonna fill their world
With light
You are a dream I've had forever
You know exactly what I'm wishing
You're gonna love me into submission
Feelings I had
While at your feet
Those kind of things
I cant repeat
You're gonna fill their world
With light
You put the point in exclamation
You took a day to build a nation
You're gonna teach me how to live
You're gonna teach me how to give
Feelings I had
Well who can say?
I cant explain them
Anyway
You're gonna fill their world
With light
You're gonna fill their world
With light
I'm Willing lyrics - ben lee
I took a breath of fresh air
I took in the view at the top
I took a lock of her golden hair
I took a look - it was gone
If living
Is giving
I'm ready
I'm willing
I took her heart cos she let me
I took a walk in the dark
I took some time to decide if it was right
I took a walk in the dark
If living
Is giving
I'm ready
I'm willing
I took a piece of the puzzle
I took a souvenier
I took both roads everywhere they went
Now something's gotta give
And I'm willing
I took in the view at the top
I took a lock of her golden hair
I took a look - it was gone
If living
Is giving
I'm ready
I'm willing
I took her heart cos she let me
I took a walk in the dark
I took some time to decide if it was right
I took a walk in the dark
If living
Is giving
I'm ready
I'm willing
I took a piece of the puzzle
I took a souvenier
I took both roads everywhere they went
Now something's gotta give
And I'm willing
Running With Scissors lyrics - ben lee
This open sky is painted blue
These curtains kissing in your room
This is the letter I wont send
This is a property condemned
Their sleeping hearts'll never understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Well I can feel you in my bones
These are the symptoms that I've shown
It's always every now and then
Life is unusual again
Their sleeping hearts'll Mever understand
You Can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Their sleeping hearts'll never understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
So don't ask me for a reason
Don't look at me for a reason
Don't look for me cause I'm runnin' too fast
Their sleeping hearts'll never understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Their sleeping hearts'llever understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
These curtains kissing in your room
This is the letter I wont send
This is a property condemned
Their sleeping hearts'll never understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Well I can feel you in my bones
These are the symptoms that I've shown
It's always every now and then
Life is unusual again
Their sleeping hearts'll Mever understand
You Can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Their sleeping hearts'll never understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
So don't ask me for a reason
Don't look at me for a reason
Don't look for me cause I'm runnin' too fast
Their sleeping hearts'll never understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Their sleeping hearts'llever understand
You can't hear the song until you dance
We run with scissors in our hands
Aftertaste lyrics - ben lee
And it's none of my business,
I got a weakness
Can I beat this?
The autumn leaves
Are falling in the breeze
It's not my fault
There's a storm over yonder
You gotta wonder
What it's all about
Destiny was never up to me
And it's not my fault,
Your love's like salt
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
And I really didn't need this
Don't wanna be this
Don't wanna see this
I'm fallin' in,
I'm going there again
And it's not my fault
Are you sick of pretending?
That all this trouble is really endin'
The way things break
Every step you take
Is not my fault
Your love's like salt
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Your love's like salt
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
I got a weakness
Can I beat this?
The autumn leaves
Are falling in the breeze
It's not my fault
There's a storm over yonder
You gotta wonder
What it's all about
Destiny was never up to me
And it's not my fault,
Your love's like salt
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
And I really didn't need this
Don't wanna be this
Don't wanna see this
I'm fallin' in,
I'm going there again
And it's not my fault
Are you sick of pretending?
That all this trouble is really endin'
The way things break
Every step you take
Is not my fault
Your love's like salt
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Your love's like salt
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Feels like its over before it starts
The aftertaste is gunna break my heart
Dirty Mind lyrics - ben lee
Yeah
It's the only way that I want it - Inside
Yeah
Don't you want me to want it - Oh no
Yeah
And other things I consider
You know you'll never forgive me
'Cause a dream is a weapon
And I think about you everyday
So come for the danger, stay for the strange
But I'm never going to give it away
You'll never clean my dirty mind
You'll never clean my dirty mind
All right [X2]
Yeah
And I don't need protecting
From the way I'm connecting
Yeah
'Cause it's never as good
IF you do as you should
Yeah
You've gotta let yourself dream it
You've gotta let yourself mean it
'Cause a dream is a weapon, and I think about you everyday
So come for the danger, stay for the strange
But I'm never going to give it away
You'll never clean my dirty mind
You'll never clean my dirty mind
All right [X2]
'Cause a dream is a weapon
And I think about you everyday
So come for the danger, stay for the strange
But I'm never going to give it away
You'll never clean my dirty mind
You'll never clean my dirty mind
Alright
[X4]
It's the only way that I want it - Inside
Yeah
Don't you want me to want it - Oh no
Yeah
And other things I consider
You know you'll never forgive me
'Cause a dream is a weapon
And I think about you everyday
So come for the danger, stay for the strange
But I'm never going to give it away
You'll never clean my dirty mind
You'll never clean my dirty mind
All right [X2]
Yeah
And I don't need protecting
From the way I'm connecting
Yeah
'Cause it's never as good
IF you do as you should
Yeah
You've gotta let yourself dream it
You've gotta let yourself mean it
'Cause a dream is a weapon, and I think about you everyday
So come for the danger, stay for the strange
But I'm never going to give it away
You'll never clean my dirty mind
You'll never clean my dirty mind
All right [X2]
'Cause a dream is a weapon
And I think about you everyday
So come for the danger, stay for the strange

Something Borrowed, Something Blue lyrics - ben lee
Polystyrene, I wanna daydream, I need an enemy to get me through,
Prodigal sunscreen, our love's a guillotine, something borrowed, something blue.
Another ship sunk, family tree trunk, deep scar diving, I look for you,
And we're hoping and we're choking, something borrowed, something blue.
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something blue.
It gets harder, my father, the weight you manage and the damage too,
Polystyrene, I wanna daydream, something borrowed, something...
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something...
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue.
Ten floors, I'm falling, guess who I'm recalling?
Oh yeah, it's true, my life begins and ends with you.
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something...
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue.
Prodigal sunscreen, our love's a guillotine, something borrowed, something blue.
Another ship sunk, family tree trunk, deep scar diving, I look for you,
And we're hoping and we're choking, something borrowed, something blue.
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something blue.
It gets harder, my father, the weight you manage and the damage too,
Polystyrene, I wanna daydream, something borrowed, something...
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something...
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue.
Ten floors, I'm falling, guess who I'm recalling?
Oh yeah, it's true, my life begins and ends with you.
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something...
I get the feeling I could leave you on the interstate,
I get the feeling like I just broke through.
I get the feeling like you never mattered anyway,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue,
Something borrowed, something blue; something borrowed, something blue.
Run lyrics - ben lee
I feel you in the sidetrack
I'm reaching out for contact
To keep you on my mind
And are you close to breaking?
I'm sorry if you're aching
But I don't wanna hide
I feel you somewhere downtown
I hear you in the low sounds
I bleed until I'm cut
And I'm still thinking of you
I promise I can love you
If you can keep it up
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
The secret that I'm keeping
The moment that I'm reaching
The image on my mind
I feel you in the outback
I'm holding out for contact
But you're so far behind
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Wake up, jumpstart. You're name across my heart
Someone dragged mine, until the finish line
Slow burn, U-turn. Still laugh at lesson learned
Fun, damage done. If you want me you gotta:
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
I'm reaching out for contact
To keep you on my mind
And are you close to breaking?
I'm sorry if you're aching
But I don't wanna hide
I feel you somewhere downtown
I hear you in the low sounds
I bleed until I'm cut
And I'm still thinking of you
I promise I can love you
If you can keep it up
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
The secret that I'm keeping
The moment that I'm reaching
The image on my mind
I feel you in the outback
I'm holding out for contact
But you're so far behind
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Wake up, jumpstart. You're name across my heart
Someone dragged mine, until the finish line
Slow burn, U-turn. Still laugh at lesson learned
Fun, damage done. If you want me you gotta:
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Run if you want me, you're moving too slow
Run if you want me, whoa
Chills lyrics - ben lee
Light another cigarette
and maybe by the end of it
you'll have changed.
Make a mental note to self
to dig a deeper wishing-well
next year.
Still, you are the only thing I fear
You give me chills, you give me chills
Sentimental waking up
or sleeping in a coffee cup it seems.
You're so high, the sky's scared
and now you're in my nightmares
and my dreams.
Still, you are the only thing I need
You give me chills, you give me chills
You give me chills, then you leave me cold
Still, you are the only thing I feel
You give me chills, you give me chills
You give me chills, then you leave me:
You give me chills, you give me chills
You give me chills, then you leave me cold
And then you leave me cold
and maybe by the end of it
you'll have changed.
Make a mental note to self
to dig a deeper wishing-well
next year.
Still, you are the only thing I fear
You give me chills, you give me chills
Sentimental waking up
or sleeping in a coffee cup it seems.
You're so high, the sky's scared
and now you're in my nightmares
and my dreams.
Still, you are the only thing I need
You give me chills, you give me chills
You give me chills, then you leave me cold
Still, you are the only thing I feel
You give me chills, you give me chills
You give me chills, then you leave me:
You give me chills, you give me chills
You give me chills, then you leave me cold
And then you leave me cold
Music 4 The Young & Foolish lyrics - ben lee
I could never leave you waiting
I've never been so close
There's nothing that we'd need to save here
So just let it go
And take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
Spilling everything in the dark now
You can have it all
We can build it up to the stars
Just to watch it fall
So take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
Don't wanna live under water, I don't wanna drown in the sun
Just wanna cry on your shoulder until the tidal wave comes
Don't wanna live under water, don't wanna drown in the sun
Just wanna cry on your shoulder until the tidal wave comes
Seeking for a secret craving. Headlights on a sign
I might have to walk away from you, babe, to make you mine
So take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
So take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
I've never been so close
There's nothing that we'd need to save here
So just let it go
And take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
Spilling everything in the dark now
You can have it all
We can build it up to the stars
Just to watch it fall
So take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
Don't wanna live under water, I don't wanna drown in the sun
Just wanna cry on your shoulder until the tidal wave comes
Don't wanna live under water, don't wanna drown in the sun
Just wanna cry on your shoulder until the tidal wave comes
Seeking for a secret craving. Headlights on a sign
I might have to walk away from you, babe, to make you mine
So take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
So take me over, and leave me broken
'Cause this is music for the young and foolish
No Room To Bleed lyrics - ben lee
Caught in the deep
Waiting for a sign
I couldn't keep the flowers on my pillow
Alive
Falling asleep, with half of an eye
I want to see the lights of San Francisco
At night
Wait but I won't say that I'm sorry
Watch as I burn my bridges down
And all the time I kept it inside
You leave me no room to bleed
Close to the chest and near to the ground
It's for the best of all the flood gates around me
Lie down
If all that you see has left you unchanged
What did you mean when you said that I was bleeding
In vain
Wait, and I'm living underwater
Watch while I burn my bridges down
The words that I say and the hurt goes away
you leave me no room to bleed
But somewhere inside I'm still on the line
You leave me no room to bleed
Wait on the landscape that I'm breaking
Watch as I burn my bridges down
And I've tried to run but now I'm all done
You leave me no room to bleed
You leave me no room to bleed
Waiting for a sign
I couldn't keep the flowers on my pillow
Alive
Falling asleep, with half of an eye
I want to see the lights of San Francisco
At night
Wait but I won't say that I'm sorry
Watch as I burn my bridges down
And all the time I kept it inside
You leave me no room to bleed
Close to the chest and near to the ground
It's for the best of all the flood gates around me
Lie down
If all that you see has left you unchanged
What did you mean when you said that I was bleeding
In vain
Wait, and I'm living underwater
Watch while I burn my bridges down
The words that I say and the hurt goes away
you leave me no room to bleed
But somewhere inside I'm still on the line
You leave me no room to bleed
Wait on the landscape that I'm breaking
Watch as I burn my bridges down
And I've tried to run but now I'm all done
You leave me no room to bleed
You leave me no room to bleed
