Track Name: Elephant Talk
I see the trees fly past
I want it to last
I'm sitting in a cab that goes too fast
I've been thinking too much, I wan't it to stop
I try to come down but I think i might drown

I ask the driver where the destination's gona be
He looks and he says it doesn't matter to me
I pinch and I pinch but I feel nothing
I start to wonder if this is all a dream

Sweet dreams are drifting through my body when I'm sleeping
I try to get out, but I have this urge to stay for a while

To you, I'll see when I wake up from this dream (x2)

[Instrumental]

My mind keeps rolling around and round
Until I find this horizon
That blows my mind

To you, I'll see when I wake up from this dream (x2)
Track Name: Anita Da Silva
I run, run, run, run, run
Down the street which has no name in my mind
She lives there I just don't know where
Ooh she's so sweet to me
I just don't know where to find
Find my way

I keep on running all alone
My shadow chases me by my side oh
I stumble, I fall now
I can't stop now
No, no, no, no, no, no
I can't stop now
No, no, no, no, no, no

She has the most charming smile I've seen
I hope she'll always be in my heart
A good friend is always hard to see
Ooh she's so sweet to me
I just don't know how to find
Find my way
Track Name: Falling Asleep
Falling asleep
Trying to stay awake
I don't what to do but I'm thinking of you
Where do you think this clown is going to go
I don't know what do but I'm thinking of you
I'd like to meet you
But I'm drifting away

I don't want to go to bed now
I don't want to drift away
I don't want to go to sleep now
I don't want to float away

Falling asleep
Trying to stay awake
I don't know what to do but I'm dreaming of you
What the fuck is illusionists
Do dreams exist
I don't know what to do but I'm dreaming of you
I'd like to meet you
But I'm drifting away

I don't want to go to bed now
I don't want to float away
I don't want to go to sleep now
I don't want to float away
Track Name: Safe And Sound
You've gotta come down some time
That's one thing for certain
I know you sometimes don't understand
You don't want to lift this heavy burden

In the parking lot right by the wall
A peaceful and quiet no bother at all
One thing you need to understand
Isn't good at all

Come down, come dow
Wnon't you come down to me
Right down to me on the ground
Please come safe and sound
Safe and sound

I see you fade I understand
It's time to lend a helping hand
Picture this, the pouring rain
The howling wind, the subtle pain
Of little hope, and little light
Put out of mind and out of site

I see you fade I understand
It's time to lend a helping hand
Please come safe and sound
Safe and sound
Safe and sound
Safe and sound
