REAL (Mathur / von Wyl)
Hey, seems like I have known you so long. Telling stories now, sharing memories how we've been dealing with our lives. And I want to tell you something. There is something you got to know. I am real, I am real. You can look into my eyes. You can walk with me. I am real, I am real. You can feel my hands are warm. You can talk to me. But I want to ask you something. There is something I need to know. Are you real? Hey, sometimes it seems I don't know you at all. Faking stories now, making memories how we're wishing, we could build our lives. And I want to tell you something. There's something you got to know. I am real, I am real. You can look into my eyes. You can walk with me. But I want to ask you something. There is something I need to know. And I want to tell you something. There's something you got to know. I am real, I am real. You can look into my eyes. You can walk with me. I am real, I am real. You can feel my hands are warm. You can talk to me. But I want to ask you something. There is something I need to know. Are you real?

DON'T WANT THE PHONE TO RING (Mathur / von Wyl)
It's Sunday morning. Churchgoers on the street. But I'm still wrapped up in blankets. I'm trying to warm up my cold feet. Lately I'm thinking. Must be something more than this. I've been trying so hard to fit in. It's a game of hit and miss. For all that you know. It's all just a show. I may be more than a million miles away. I don't want the phone to ring. Feeling better where I am now. I don't want the phone to ring. I don't want the phone to ring. Come Monday evening. Sky is pouring down with rain, yeah. Just skipping around all the puddles. I am with myself again, yeah, yeah. For all that you know. It's all just a show. I may be more than a million miles away. I don't want the phone to ring. Feeling better where I am now. I don't want the phone to ring. I don't want the phone to ring. I've been mistaken for somebody else now. How can it be, it can't be me. 'Cause I'm a million miles away. I don't want the phone to ring. Feeling better where I am now. I don't want the phone to ring. I don't want the phone to ring.

AIN'T GOING NOWHERE (Mathur / von Wyl)
You know that I love you. You know that I care. All the time we try to move on but we ain't going nowhere from here. You know that I need you. You know that I do. Something 'bout you I keep holding on to and I ain't going nowhere from here. No I ain't going nowhere from here. Don't you know that it's your love that keeps me running too. Around the wall that you're building that I can't break through. You know you're my dream, girl. You know that it's true. Every morning I wake up without you I know I ain't going nowhere from here. No ain't going nowhere from here. Don't you know that it's your love I keep running to. Move in circles all around you while you play it cool. If you look away too long. Turn around and I'll be gone. 'Cause we ain't going nowhere, ain't going nowhere from here. Hey! While you're twisting your hips. Gonna give you the slip. I'm moving out to live in my own story. While you're shaking your head. Gonna climb out of bed. I'll be out the door, down the road, I'll be free. And you'll be sorry. No I ain't going nowhere from here. Don't you know that it's your love I keep running to. Acting like you are my lover while I play the fool. Don't you look away too long. You'll turn around and I'll be gone. 'Cause I ain't going nowhere, ain't going nowhere from here. No I ain't going nowhere, ain't going nowhere from here. No I ain't going nowhere, ain't going nowhere from here.

ANYTIME AT ALL (Mathur)
Any time at all, I'll be there, I'll be by your side. She could hear the sound of voices. She could hear the cry in vain. Paralyzed, her body numb and cold. She could feel a lifeline fading. And a crowd of lookers on. Inside her head his words kept coming back. Any time at all, he said, all you gotta do is call. And I'll be there, I'll be by your side, yeah. Any time at all, my love, all you gotta do is call. Forever girl, I'll be by your side. Yeah any time at all. Any time at all, yeah, yeah. All you gotta do is call. Any time at all. Love had died within a second. As he bowed his head to sign. Insanity had feigned a lethal mind. In an aftermath of silence. She had kissed her open world goodbye. All over now, yet she couldn't cry. Any time at all, he said, all you gotta do is call. And I'll be there, I'll be by your side. Any time at all, my love, all you gotta do is call. Forever girl, I'll be by your side. Any time at all

STOP THE SHAME (Mathur / von Wyl)
Is there a way we could stop the shame we're feeling every day? If there's a way, I could ease the pain you're feeling day to day. In the cities cold at night. Holding back the things that you should say. Pass the fortune forward. Filling up the hats that beg for change. Take away the hunger. Tell me why it always feels so strange. Talking 'bout another human, not so different than you and me. Is there a way we could stop the shame we're feeling every day? Out in the alleyways It's loneliness that keeps us company. After all the years we've spent. Still don't know that nothing comes for free. Pass the fortune forward. Filling up the hats that beg for change. Take away the hunger. Tell me why it always feels so strange. Talking 'bout another human, not so different than you and me. Is there a way we could stop the shame we're feeling every day? So many questions and the answers they are clear. But we don't look, we just walk away. Down on the streets there are voices we don't hear. But they're loud enough to carry us away. Pass the fortune forward. Filling up the hearts that beg for change. Take away the hunger. Tell me why it always feels so strange. Talking 'bout another human, not so different than you and me. Is there a way we could stop the shame we're feeling every day? If there's a way, I could ease the pain you're feeling day to day. Ease the pain you're feeling day to day. Stop the shame we're feeling every day

DEEPER THAN YOUR SKIN (Mathur)
I see you're hurting! Take a look inside you, it'll make you feel better again. Hey, you've got the looks and you're smart. You've got that sparkle in your heart. Yes, you're one of a kind! When some words just bring you down. Take a look inside you. Your beauty goes deeper than your skin. That's where love begins. In your heart you're so beautiful. Your beauty goes deeper than your skin. Your life-force from within. You're beautiful. You're beautiful. Words can be so cruel! Make you feel kind of small and hurt your self-esteem. You go hiding into sadness. Some words that are spoken carelessly or for lack of sensitivity. Or when you're caught in the line of fire. When your world feels upside down. Take a look inside you. Your beauty goes deeper than your skin. That's where love begins. In your heart you're so beautiful. Your beauty goes deeper than your skin. That force of life within. You're beautiful. You're beautiful. Let's make faces at the mirror and laugh all the hurtful words away, because you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, in your heart you're so beautiful. You're beautiful (deeper than your skin), you're beautiful (deeper than your skin), you're beautiful, in your heart you're so beautiful. You're beautiful (deeper than your skin), you're beautiful (deeper than your skin), you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful.

COMMON MISTAKE (Mathur / von Wyl)
Do you fill yourself with fear? Of all the things you cannot buy. There's someone whispering in your ear about the things that make you high. Can you ever be alone? Has your desperation grown? Of all the things we need to shake. Still make the common mistake. Oh, making the common mistake. Yo di yo di yo di yo. Yo di yo di yo di yea. Yo di yo di yo di yeah. We make the common. We make the common mistake. You can blame it on your fate. Believe it's written down in stone. Imagining that it's too late and all your choices have been blown. Could it be that you are wrong? And you've known it all along? It's the mold that's hard to break. We make the common mistake. Oh, making the common mistake. Yo di yo di yo di yo. Yo di yo di yo di yea. Yo di yo di yo di yeah. We make the common mistake. I see it written in your face. Something's turning in your mind. But you get caught up in the race. And make the common, make the common mistake. Oh, making the common. Oh, making the common. Oh no, making the common mistake! Yo di yo di yo di yo. Yo di yo di yo di yea. Yo di yo di yo di yeah. We make the common mistake. Because you're caught up in the race. Nothing's moving in your mind. I see it written on your face. You'll make the common, you'll make the common mistake.

STUCK ON 75 (Mathur)
Stuck on 75, no matter how hard I try. Years go rolling and the days go by, still I'm stuck on 75. Sitting on a runaway plane, and the pilot has long gone missing. I think I'm gonna get sacrificed for being stuck on 75. I see you moving fast, trying to catch that early train. Got to beat that clock, running out of breath. I see you running and you see me running on the wrong side of the track. Trying to beat my best scares me to death. Then we get down to playing the game. We go looking for somebody to blame. Just when I should be looking out, I look away. Stuck on 75, no matter how hard I try. Years go rolling and the days go by, still I'm stuck on 75. I see them moving fast, getting closer every step I take. Getting beaten on my track scares me to death. You see me running I can see them coming from both sides of the track. They're gonna beat my best, I'm running out of breath. We're getting to the part of the game. They go looking for somebody to shame. Just when they should be looking out, I slip away. Yeah! Stuck on 75, no matter how hard I try. Years go rolling and the days go by, still I'm stuck on 75. I'm sitting on a runaway plane, and the pilot has long gone missing. I think I'm gonna get sacrificed for being stuck on 75. Stuck on 75, stuck on 75, I don't wanna be sacrificed for being stuck on 75

COMEDIAN (Mathur)
Somebody said that the world is a stage, we play a part on it. I think it's true, when I think of you and the plots you constrict. Won't really mind if a change of the heart brings you back to me. A love affair is a simple play when you act naturally. I play the part of comic relief and the joke was on me from the act number one to the last curtain call. Comedian! A tragedy couldn't drive you to tears, you know all the moves. I was so sure till you threw me a line to confuse and miss my cue. Now I'm playing the part of comic relief and the joke was on me from the act number one to the last curtain call. Comedian! I'm playing the part of comic relief and the joke was on me from the act number one to the last curtain call. Comedian!

REASONS TO CRY (Mathur / von Wyl)
Do you know where you've been. On all the roads that you've taken so far. Are there things that have seemed off in the distance but were really quite near. Were you crippled by fear of all the time that was passing you by. Now you're standing right here, you have a chance to leave it behind. Now you're learning to fly. Now you're learning to live. Your heart is open now to forgive. You've lost your reasons to cry. Since you've been learning to give. With your eyes wide open now, you live. Now you know where you've been, names of the roads that have brought you this far. All the things that have seemed far in the distance but they're really right here. Now you're free of the fear of the time life was passing you by. Now it's forward from here. You took the chance and you left it behind. Now you're learning to fly. Now you're learning to live. Your heart is open now to forgive. You've lost your reasons to cry. Since you've been learning to give. With your eyes wide open now, you live.
