1.
As the Earth lives and loves/Keep an eye on the stars above/They came from the spaces between/The center of humanity's dream Chorus: I don't want to be a hero/But our chances are approaching zero/The time has come to stand and fight/Raise our flag into the night x2 The sky is covered in a sudden decay/Of un-indentified beings from space/Our greatest weapons have no effect/We'll stand and fight until there's no one left Chorus Into the night/Into the night/Into the night/Into the night Chorus
2.
Feeling of floating through the air/Plucking the flowers that are in her hair/No other feeling compares Chorus: The world works backwards in my mind/I step through life and I step through time/Still don't know what I have to find/What's mine is yours and what's yours is mine I'm the one who flies through her dreams/Nothing is ever quite what it seems/The path to ways and means Chorus She thinks she knows what's left/All the thoughts that run through her head/But not me Chorus "La La La" Chorus

Time Machine 03:44
If I could turn the clock back to '99/I would not hesitate to make you mine/I would take back all the things that I said/It doesn't matter now because you're dead Chorus: Step into my time machine/I'll show you things you've never seen/Sit next to me and sing along/We'll have fun before you're gone I knew I loved you but you were my best friend/I wanted to hold you but you wanted to pretend/Then that one night you were suddenly gone/Maybe now you'll see that it was me all along Chorus I was rejected about three years ago/But I'm an evil genious and so/I'll turn the clock back and set it to four/You will be mine forever more You're gone/Yeah, you're gone/Yeah, you're gone, gone, gone gone gone gone Chorus

Skurf 02:13
Verse 1: Hanging out at the beach/thoughts running through my head Watching the waves crash/suddenly I said Whoa, I want to change this world So I thought I would form a band/with those who understand Chorus: Whoa, I want to change this world/whoa, I want to change this world someday x2 I met a man who played surf/another who played ska Put them together - it makes SKURF/that is what we thought Verse 2: Whoa, we knew we'd change the world/now SKURF is here to stay/the whole world knows our names Chorus 2: Whoa, we knew we'd change the world/whoa, we knew we'd change the world someday x2

Glory Days 04:56
Verse 1: I used to be so young and full of life but times have changed and now My body's aged but not my mind We used to run so free and drive so fast and play right through the night But those days are over and I can never go back to when Chorus: We were young/we were free/we were just who we wanted to be Not a care/in the world/no pain/cheap thrills If I could go back for just one day/I would, I would say/We had it all/we had it all Verse 2: The summer days were blinding/the summer nights, they were warm and they were long Under the stars we made our stand/as our fears turned to sand We never lost sight of our happiness/but life drained it all away I wish could still go back/go back to the glory days when Chorus Break: With no responsibilities/we could always feel at ease/we could always handle what might come Our way/until the day/that all went away/it doesn't matter what they say Last chorus: 'Cause we ARE young/we ARE free/we ARE just who we wanted to be Not a care/in the world/no pain/cheap thrills If I could go back for just one day/I would say/we HAVE it all/we HAVE it all
