In The Dark

In the dark, take me by the hand
Lead me to another land
Promises, too soon to make
Fragile feelings too soon to break
In the dark (x2)
In the dark, flying through space
I can see your terrified face
I realize why we're here
The future really is not too clear
In the dark (x2)
In the dark (x2)
Where's the light, in the dark
Where's the light, I'm in the dark
Lyrics: Marc (c) 1981 Syntax Music
Just For The Moment
Eyes are lined with respectable lies
Floating backward 'til it cries
Function stops, in walks conflict (x3)
Lives are lined with forgettable ties
Forced emotion 'til it dies
Nothing's said, I'm forgotten (just for the moment) x4
Just for the moment (x4)

Face

White men, some wear silver, some wear gold
Clean men, some are new, some are old
They bite, they smile, they can scare
Deciduous existence is not fair
Two men, one can see, one cannot
Blue men, I can't help what I got
They sleep, they stare, they can cry
One thing's for certain, they can't lie
There's too many people that I can't ...
There's too many people that I can't ...
There's too many people that I can't ...
Face, face

One More Circle
02:20

Acting too much, can't feel no more
Jumping in circles, can't play no more
No more time, no more time
No more time for circles (x2)
Talking too much gets through no more
Running in circles, can't focus no more
No more time, no more time
No more time for circles (x2)
Jumping in circles, hit the floor
Running in circles, can't find the door
No more time, no more time
No more time for circles (x2)
No more rhyme (no more circles)
No more crime (no more circles)
No more crime (no more circles)

They Walk In Pairs
01:57
|

|
Sentinels guard the enemy thoughts
And stare each other down
All is open but nothing's revealed
They wait for each other to open fire
Action, action and reaction
They walk in pairs
Action, action and reaction
They walk in pairs
Courage hides and lies are heroes
Talk, no cares, they walk in pairs
Feelings flee, discuss what remains
Talk, no cares, they walk in pairs
Action, action and reaction
They walk in pairs
Action, talk no cares
They walk in pairs
Action, talk no cares
They walk in pairs

That's What They Tell Me

Don't tell me tomorrow
Don't tell me maybe
Because you know I won't be happy
Till I get what I need
(repeat 1st verse)
Everyone's got lots of money
Everyone's got lots of love
Everyone's got a happy family
That's what they tell me
That's what they tell me
(repeat 2nd verse)
(repeat 1st verse)
(repeat 2nd verse)

Dirtbag Transformation: "What is this?" was my first reaction. But what an amazing song. It reminds me a bit of the Pixies in how it pulls together dissonance and then resolves.
