Oh, does anyone want me?
I'm neither land nor sea Too filthy for the ocean Too clean for the beach You could call me an island Or a shipwrecked shard of sand Some creature with sealegs that won't stand And the mountainsides to climb All the views that you can find If you hold your breath You'll never have to come up for air There's a boat that leaves at midnight There by morning if we sail all night Oh, oh, just give a little nod and I will know |

Something in your voice made me look up tonight
For fortune written in the summer stars When they put themselves in line, they are a prophecy And I’m reaching out to greet what is to be This galaxy, she waits gracefully for the right time How do the summer stars align? How does the moon rise in your eye? Pull the sea in mine The story of the year is unfolding here And I promise you, this time, I’ll listen well Blinded as we are under the blooming night We feel as though we’re doing something right This galaxy, she waits gracefully for the right time How do the summer stars align? How does the moon rise in your eye? Pull the sea in mine |

Well, hello
No, it isn’t so hard to say And you know, maybe it would make your day Well, I know you’re going, you are on your way But maybe you could stop and see the day Hey – I didn’t mean to wake you I just want to make sure you are a-ok And it gets under my skin sometimes How hard it can be to get in sometimes To a heart, or even into conversation I have no explanation for a group effort in silence How could it be, Someone could find me Too scary to say hello to? No, I didn’t mean to wake you I just want to make sure you are a-ok Hey – I don’t want to make a fuss I’m just growing tired of us So, so tired of us |

I’d show you what I’ve got for you Baby don’t stop doin’ what you do Cuz ever since I saw you, I just knew You and me are two of a kind Look into my eyes, girl Tell me you like the stuff I wear You’ve got pigtails in your hair That’s how I know that you’re a girl Let me rock your world Put your hands up Ooh, I’ve got the place surrounded I know the world is overcrowded But I wanna make babies with you No love is wrong when love is right Surrender your love to me tonight Baby don’t stop doin’ what you do Cuz ever since I saw you, I just knew You and me are two of a kind Look into my eyes, girl Tell me that I’m impressing you With all that crazy stuff I do You know it’s destiny Come on and let me see you Put your hands up I’ve got the place surrounded I know the world is overcrowded But I wanna make babies with you |

This is what we wanted
This is where we ought to be But is it really, really happening? This is what we live for This is where we ought to be But is it really, really happening? My overcoat wants something more It wants to help me out But it’s getting in the way today My scarf is wet, my neck is drenched I don’t accept what it recommends My wool socks too, they feel abused Each toe is suffering Keep wiggle and stretching them Just wanna keep things moving This is what we wanted This is where we ought to be But is it really, really happening? This is what we live for This is where we ought to be But is it really, really happening? The silver spoons we hold Can’t feed the hands that follow A moon that shines so low Can break right through its shadow This is what we wanted This is where we ought to be But is it really, really happening? This is what we live for This is where we ought to be But is it really, really happening? Everything’s on the floor I can’t remember a thing Everything is a mess Are things really moving? (Is this really, really happening?) The phone shouldn’t ring The calories never burn The energy won’t stop Cuz things are really moving (Is this really, really happening?) Is this really, really happening? |

Olga, she comes in through your windows
Without an expectation Of where you’ll be tomorrow Olga, her touch is a tornado Her eyes heat up the ruins Opening up the morning Olga stays the same Cuz she doesn’t need to change But I do Easier than wind And she’s shaking all my limbs Olga, the poetry of music Rises like the ashes Of life before I knew you Help us get to know each other I want an explanation For the spell you’ve put me under Olga stays the same Cuz she doesn’t need to change But I do Easier than wind And she’s shaking all my limbs |

from Via Audio - Gold Rush [single] (2011)
I’ve heard whispers in town of a gold rush
They’re digging through the hills to find new lives Soon they’ll sail through days, then they’ll melt away In mansions made of skin and ivory white All I want is to be released From the worries that wait to worry me I want that gold I’m gonna bring it home I’m gonna put my feet on the road And get that gold You were sparkling down like a snowflake Through maple trees, everything was green Your silver blades arranged as if to say, “Gold is only good as what it means” If I look, I won’t forget that shine Your reflections will penetrate my mind So float into the light I want that gold I’m gonna bring it home I’m gonna put my feet on the road And get that gold |

Things today are not what they seem
You wouldn’t like to look behind the scenes That girl is not what she appears to be When she appears on your TV Airbrushed, auto-tuned, pretty as can be I don’t have to sing my notes on key Because the robot sings it right for me Because the robot sings it right for me Hey, didn’t you know that it’s digital? A million tiny pixels, buzzing before your eyes Kid, you’ve got the look of a star It doesn’t even matter how good you are Just speak these words into that mic Something 12-year-olds will like We’ll put you up on silver screens We’ll make your voice sounds like a scream Don’t worry, you don’t have to sing on key The robot sings right as right can be The robot sings right as right can be The robot sings right as right can be The robot sings right as right can be The robot will sing it right for me! Hey, didn’t you know that it’s digital? A million tiny pixels, buzzing before your eyes Hey, didn’t you know that it’s digital? A million tiny pixels, a million little lies |

I like it up top, yeah
On the salt in your skin I like it on top, yeah The space where you begin I’ve got one last plane ticket to the other side And I don’t know how, so high, but I’m so high But she likes it on top of me And I woke up here alone I feel so happy Alone I see you’re going to die today Yeah I said, I can see it One of us will see the light today Get extinguished I’ve got one last plane ticket to the other side And I don’t know how, so high, but I’m so high But she likes it on top of me And I woke up here alone I feel so happy alone |

There’s tigers waiting in the brush
You’d better give them all your lunch They left me with a bit-off stump Cuz I didn’t know If you look them ‘tween the eyes They might leave you only one to cry from Or they might leave you there for the flies So not in the eyes But: You can say whatever you feel As long as you know you won’t become a meal So shake their paws, seal all the deals If they’ve got an iron grip, then make yours steel So they can feel you’re for real There’s lions waiting in the grass You’d better put on all your masks They’ll catch you if you don’t run fast, So save your ass You can say whatever you feel As long as you know you won’t become a meal So shake their paws, seal all the deals If they’ve got an iron grip, then make yours steel So they can feel you’re for real |

from Via Audio - Oh Blah Wee [single] (2011)
I'm gonna leave my heart
And change my name and change my ways I’m gonna wake up in time to see the days Oh, all those sunny days Cuz I've got pink in my cheeks For the first time in weeks And I don't know why but I feel guilty And I've done nothing wrong but say goodbye To everyone who' d already gone Cuz oh, blah, wee, life goes on And on and on, but baby you're gone And you know, I'm not the kind who gives up It's just that I'm fed up And the winds of change are blowing me down Already know what you think About calling it quits Well, it's what you've always wanted And I, I’ve given you almost everything Except that one bit So now, here's all of it Cuz oh, blah, wee, life goes on And on and on, but baby you're gone And you know, I'm not the kind who gives up It's just that I'm fed up And the winds of change are blowing me down And the winds of change are blowing me all around |
