Taller than the rest Jingu girl I dress the best
'round my neck hot pink leather
Trouble bubble gum I'm a crisis out for fun
Get my cat walkin' pleasure

Lookin' for kicks I cross the bridge 'til it hits
In multi-color I sway
watch me become anime
you say

Blow it out blow it out like a supergirl
Shake me out of my mind

Right up off the strip comic book I'm lookin' hip
On my speed motorcycle
Passing all the suits in my Barbarella boots 
Tokyo day glow vinyl
Up and away at zero gravity plays
My beaded laser berets 
Blazin' I burn through the haze

Blow it out blow it out like a supergirl
Shake me out of my mind

Bang bang my kitty hello chrome and fire
school girl bomb shell inferno hot wire
Just above the ground everybody stare
In a single bound take your double dare
Zap you so pretty kabuki flame thrower
Like Godzilla I burn it down
Now say

Blow it out blow it out like a supergirl
Shake me out of my mind

I'm a grey sea on my back 
You are blue sky
Lifting endless me to me
Grey to blue, blue to black

I'm a grey sky floating thick
You are blue sea
For reflecting me to me
Grey to blue, blue to black
Infinity

I have no idea where you are 
Longest line where sea meets sky
And I have no idea who you are
Forever where the sky meets sea
In this life I know that we may never meet
But you sing to me

I hear you sing to me
Infinity

I'm a grey sea on my back
I'm a grey sky floating thick
Looking for you and me



Sing To Me (Lyric: Christin Hancock - Music: Christin Hancock, Neville Elder, and Mat Dennis)

Vocal: Christin

Winter white blind with arms outstretched to spring
Frozen in shadows your light captured me
Fit lost soul memory into love's grasping hand
and between we stand
in-between we stand

Pulling you near to strip you of armor
Lean in and whisper how I'm dying to live
Begging you to stitch your name into my wanting skin
I'll take you in

A moment still in grace leads to forever in embrace
Transcending time and all her muses 
Into what will be our ceremony

Reborn above and below we'll abandon all we know
As we collapse into one body
Into what will be our ceremony

Phoenix blow cinders high above our head
Lighting the path that leads back onto life's stage
Reappear no different and yet everything has changed
Ever this way

A moment still in grace leads to forever in embrace
Transcending time and all her muses 
Into what will be our ceremony

Reborn above and below we'll abandon all we know
As we collapse into one body
Into what will be our ceremony

Stitch your name in my skin
Feel the thaw begin and now I know
Blood flows and snow gives way to rose
Blood flows and on we go


Our Ceremony (Lyric: Christin Hancock - Music: Christin Hancock and Mat Dennis)

Vocal:  Anna Wayland

Down under the willow I wait for the call
The magpie will know me come twilight I fall
in a world of in between if I'm followed if I'm seen fine

Do go on and ramble in black white and red
For my silent movie inside my own head
Frame by frame I let you creep mute you go to sleep now

Fade to black I slip away go back I'm gone
Singing by moonlight never say goodnight catch me
Fade to black I slip away go back I'm gone
Singing by moonlight never say goodnight kiss the dawn

The wheels on the pavement behind me again
Dear boy skate away now 'til I tell you when
Maybe I could take you in show you where tonight I've been come

And stand on my shoulders jump over the gate
Be careful to mind the dried flower bouquets
Can you hear the echo play here from well beyond the grave

Fade to black I slip away go back I'm gone
Singing by moonlight never say goodnight catch me
Fade to black I slip away go back I'm gone
Singing by moonlight never say goodnight kiss the dawn

In the window sill in the attic still as a statue I hear a symphony
From another world let the color twirl all around me now 'til I float away

Fade to black I slip away go back I'm gone
Singing by moonlight never say goodnight catch me
Fade to black I slip away go back I'm gone
Singing by moonlight never say goodnight kiss the dawn


Fade To Black (Co-write Lyric with Anna Wayland. Music: Anna Wayland. Album: High Duchess

Vocal: Christin

Wing swept under guardian
Feeling content to surrender my hand
Mind tricked into starred ascent
Leave solo quest for celestial duet

It doesn’t seem that high
When I can’t feel the sky
Arise

Wind kept we take flight again
Dream and pretend by invisible friend

It doesn’t seem that high
When I can’t feel the sky
Arise



Arise (Lyric: Christin Hancock - Music: Christin Hancock and Mat Dennis)

Vocal: Christin

Cue my song spotlight on at center stage
The last girl's gone yet still her strong perfume remains
Gliding glove hand up a mic stand
I feel your eyes through me
We force connect as I hex a melody
 
I am your night secret kept tight out of your reach yet yours
Trapped in your mind burning alive as we smolder aching
Smoke rings you fade and miss 

Scan the crowd searching clouds of mystery
Lights in my eyes your silhouettes all same to me
Flaming cigarette break darkness
Your only message to exhale
Smoke ring blown kiss fade and miss my fingertips
 
I am your night secret kept tight out of your reach yet yours
Trapped in your mind burning alive as we smolder aching

Pulled my heart strings 'cross your guillotine and they held tight
 
I am your night secret kept tight out of your reach yet yours
Trapped in your mind burning alive as we smolder aching
Smoke ring blown kiss fade and miss my fingertips
Smoke rings you fade and miss

Smoke Rings (Lyric: Christin Hancock - Music: Christin Hancock, Mat Dennis, and Anna Wayland)

Vocal: Christin

Excuse me, is there anyone sitting here?
You see there’s been some trouble
And I think I need a drink to think clear

I’ll keep my back to the door
You watch the window for me
You seem nice, barkeep, I confess
Please don’t tell a soul on me

I live ‘round the corner
Just up the hill
Tonight there was a problem
Now my husband lays still 
He was always so angry
Screaming nothing could be done
But I did, yes I did
Now he’s gone. It can’t be undone

The neighbors of Pennington Lane
Will remain none the wiser
‘Til the weeds have all grown to take over the lawn
And by then I’ll be gone

Yessir, it’s all true
At least as much as I can remember
It’s a blur but the shaking is finally starting to cease
I know I’ve got to get out of here ever so quickly
Get some miles between me and that man I left resting in peace

I live ‘round the corner
Just up the hill
Tonight there was a problem
Now my husband lays still 
He was always so angry
And how the fists would fly
So will I, so will I
So goodbye, goodbye my dear goodbye

The neighbors of Pennington Lane
Will remain none the wiser
‘Til the weeds have all grown to take over the lawn
And by then I’ll be gone

You’ve been such a kind and patient listener
Sorry I held you here with this gun
But I’ve run out of time and friends, so hey mister
Pour me a double we both know that I’ve got to run
I’ll leave after one more drink is done




The Widow Of Pennington Lane (Lyric: Christin Hancock - Music: JB, Christin Hancock, and Mat Dennis)

Vocal: Christin

Under the surface
Unseen memories
Mine and my kin before me
These are my roots
Living in the dark
Made me have to leave
They’re still binding but no longer defining
These are my roots
I’ve broken new ground
As I’ve grown far away
Still roots tug at my heart
The further I stray
They say know where you came from
That’s what I intend to do
By living my life as a woman
Who grew far from her roots
You taught me to pray
taught me to have faith
Now blood pulses hope
into the heart you made brave
You only live once
and I’ve only just begun
Chasing light of a new day
‘Til greeting my final dawn
I’ve broken new ground
as I’ve grown far away
Still roots tug at my heart
the further I stray
They say know where you came from
My family tree still bears fruit
As I’m living my life as a woman
who grew far from her roots

Though it’s a great big world, memories never fade I'll carry you close in my heart
Let me go family, and just know that we are still connected, though worlds apart
In this great big world it's a great big world….

sirens sing and hear you beg
pulling in slowly
echo in your second sense
before you know we got you 
kneeling at the bliss of a touch
free you from the cross with one cut

feather flower
falling calling

castaway runaway the night hides
castaway runaway till you rise

double tresses soot and rust
dry you up wholly
erase judgment replace lust
before you know we’ve got you
kneeling at the bliss of a touch 
take the poison scented with love
	
feather flower
falling calling

castaway runaway the night hides
castaway runaway till you rise

mouth above the wet you find it
put the rear view past inside us
lose forgotten memory sketches
soaking in cracked bottle's missive









Castaway (Lyric: Christin and Anna Wayland Music: Christin, Anna Wayland, and Mat Dennis)

Vocal: Christin


Freezing and lost I stare blank at the wall

This sudden silence makes no sense at all

Arms never emptier, heart never heavier

That’s how I feel when you leave

 

Loneliest tear forming threatens to fall

Choking it back while I try to stand tall

Eyes never cloudier, mind never more unsure

That’s how I feel when you leave

 

Baby, you’ll never know

How I am after you’ve left my front door

Alone I pick-up my clothes we threw all over the floor

And spend the rest of the night on my own

Wondering why you always have to go

You always go

You always go

 

I’m thinking next time I might beg you to stay

But I know my pride will just get in my way

I’ll smile when you say goodbye, let you believe the lie (that)

That’s how I feel when you leave

 

But baby, you’ll never know

How I am after you’ve left my front door

Because you always go

You always go

 

 

That's How I Feel When You Leave (Lyric and Music: Christin Hancock)

Vocal:  Christin

Once upon a time there was a child who would rise-up at midnight and go wandering.
Passing the houses and cities and highways the child would arrive in the dessert
“Finally”, she said, “This hot sand feels dead. Sun’s heartbeat left heat. So I’m warm now”.
 
Once upon a time there was a child who’d stay asleep through the day if you let him.
Lifted by dreams he’d soar past all the clouds and the starlight would shine him to darkness.
“Finally”, he sighed, “A nice place to die.  I’ll keep it in mind. But I won’t go now”.
 
Once as the children set off on their journey they met at the crossroads of slumber. 
These twins of time travel knew they were tired and decided to sit down together.
"Finally", they purred, "I would prefer, to stay here with you, until the morning. Let’s do".
 
And the Sandman, unseen in the wings, smiled as only he can.
And the Sandman, unseen in the wings, smiled as only he can.
Only he can.
