"We Only Have One Take"

This is our minute!
We only have this one minute
Our nonrefundable ticket
Hear this song we create
This shit's gonna be great

We only have one take, we only have one try
No sleep, it's time to wake, even if we're high
We only get one take, but we won't need no more
We're already awake, yeah! We're reaching for the top score

Who needs two weeks when you have less than an hour
Rush through it all with insanity and absurd willpower
Are you even ready for what we're bringing down?
It's the track of the century, just hand us the crown

This is our minute!
We only have this one minute
Our nonrefundable ticket
Hear this song we create
This shit's gonna be great

We only have one take, we only have one try
No sleep, it's time to wake, even if we're high
We only get one take, but we won't need no more
We're already awake, yeah! We're reaching for the top score

Can you see this thing? It is coming alive!
Everything that we bring, would you have survived?
We're taking our swing, it is never too late!
Can you see who's the king? No reason to hate

This is our minute!
We only have this one minute
Our nonrefundable ticket
Hear this song we create
This shit's gonna be great

We only have one take, we only have one try
No sleep, it's time to wake, even if we're high
We only get one take, but we won't need no more
We're already awake, yeah! We're reaching for the top score


We may just be blinded fools
It's all about bending the rules
Could you have done the same?
Just go in blind and play the game

We Only Have One Take

Put this together over the weekend. Anyone want to work with me on stuff like this?

"Surfer Girl"

It's funny how the start of summertime
Can cause such a shift in paradigm
How such a crazy, mixed-up world
Can turn me into a surfer girl

I'm gunna grab my board
And run myself up to the sea
Surfin' 'cross the waves
I'm shinin', flyin', I am free

Cos I'm a surfer girl, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I'm a surfer girl, uh-oh, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl, uh-oh, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl

A-balanced atop the surfboard I stand
Feelin' like I'm one with the sea and sand
Ridin' up the tide without a hint of shame
All the rollin' waves are callin' my name

My cares are soarin' off
Like the seagulls in the sky
I'm one with the board
In my soul, I think I might cry

Cos I'm a surfer girl, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I'm a surfer girl, uh-oh, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl, uh-oh, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl

SOLO

I'm havin' such a good time on the shore
Wish that I could stay here forever more
I got this happy feelin' deep within my bones
No matter where I am, the board is my home

With the tubular waves
And the wind through my hair
My heart's a tsunami
And my spirit's surfin' through the air

Cos I'm a surfer girl, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I'm a surfer girl, uh-oh, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl, uh-oh, uh-oh (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl (surfer girl)
I’m a surfer girl

Sufer, surfer, surfer girl
Surfer, surfer, surfer girl
Surfer, surfer, surfer girl
Call me surfer girl

"Perfect Crystal World"

Verse 1
Keep an eye out for the limo
Jesus Christ is coming
Wearing diamond studded garments
And his skin, they say, is stunning
Everybody clear a pathway
The red carpet’s been rolled down
He strolls into the theatre
His entourage surrounds
 
Pre-Chorus
But behind the wave and blinding smile
Is light that burns the eyes
A glistening bit of salty water
Welling up that does belie
 
Chorus
A perfect crystal world
Insulated air
Calculated fantasies
For all the fans to share
A perfect crystal world
Undulating on a ledge
Blurring all the emptiness
That lies beyond the edge
 
Verse 2
In a hollow hotel room
The ceiling feels so low
Though there’s space enough for legions
Still the walls, they seem to close
The table makes him angry
So he smashes it to bits
Takes his knife and shreds the curtains
Breaks the mirror with his fist
 
Pre-Chorus
He’ll pay for all his rage again
It’s known with words unsaid
Yet still the lasting loneliness
Rings loudly in his head
 
Chorus
A perfect crystal world
Insulated air
Calculated fantasies
For all the fans to share
A perfect crystal world
Undulating on a ledge
Blurring all the emptiness
That lies beyond the edge
 
Bridge
And if he falls, he fears
There’s nothing but the void
But maybe that’s the only 
Way to stop the noise
Building grand illusions
A double sided blade
Surrounded by a gilded cage
That he alone has made
 
Pre-Chorus
His mother used to tell him
As mother’s sometimes do
Be careful what you wish for
Your wish might just come true

Perfect Crystal World

This track is a representation of a transcendent experience where 0 represents the final stage of pure awareness and absolute nothingness. The tones used are a representation of the frequency generated when all chakras are aligned. You can hear the ambiance of a choir singing AUM in the background. 

ur crazy matches mine
feel hazy, losing time
when im with u
there's no one else like u
there's no one else like me
yet we're bonded

sitting here wondering 
is this all a dream
i can't tell the difference
for the life of me
will u save me
if i start to lose control

if I die
with u by my side
please babe don't cry
it hurts too much inside
now u know why
ill wait here tonight
for things to feel right
like when the stxrs align 

now we're laying in bed
what was that thing u said
if ur not here I may as well be dead
oh baby u can say that again

sitting here wondering 
is this all a dream
i can't tell the difference
for the life of me
will u save me
if i start to lose control

feel my body on top of ur body
oh yeah

if I die
with u by my side
please babe don't cry
it hurts too much inside
now u know why
ill wait here tonight
for things to feel right
like when the stxrs align
like when the stxrs align

when the stxrs align

lost in a sea of deceit 
a current pulls me under
the waves crash and be 
as the struggle to break a sunder 
the waves grow stronger 
but my will is harder and 
i’ll fight a little longer 
until i’ve reached the shore
unwavering 

false drift 
a tempting tide
leading me astray 

the waters turn a chaotic storm
but i must not be swayed 
for i refuse to conform 
to the lies that are conveyed
the whispers of deceit and illusion 
lead us astray to a path that’s wrong
in a world of chaos and confusion 
we’re all searching for a place to belong 
we’re all prisoners of our own creation
trapped in a web of lies and deception 
but the demons of our own damnation 
will lead us to our ultimate destruction 

false drift
a tempting ride
leading me astray 

the road we travel is paved with lies 
the truth is buried deep inside 
if we can break free from the chains of our mind 
we can a way to leave it all behind 

break free from the chains that bind
and leave it all behind 
false drift a devils own 
a perilous voyage into the great unknown 

false drift
a tempting ride
leading me astray 
i must resist i must abide 
to find my own way

false drift

paranoia

poison
