Don’t scream out now, from the facelessA silent shout, no you shouldn’t …

Stand, don’t you stand, don’t you stand in this crowdOh, don’t you stand, don’t you stand in this crowd

Clear cut and drowned, like it’s bleedingDon’t make a sound, you know you couldn’t ...

Stand, don’t you stand, don’t you stand in this crowdOh, don’t you stand, don’t you stand in this crowd

Run where you can, while you canRun where you can, while you canEmbracing time …

Carnivale

Page 4: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

Don’t parade yourself, she saidDon’t rise above yourself, she saidWe can see you well enough from here

I can’t defend a single thingI can’t live out a single dreamThere’ll never be a train for me, from here

Who can you turn to now?Who can you turn to now?And who knows you now

Terrified of joy, she saidTerrified of hope, she saidDo I disappoint, talking this way?

I’d like to go away, she saidBut if I can’t escape from hereWill you turn and leave for me instead

Who can you turn to now?Who can you turn to now?And nobody knows you now

Oregon

Page 5: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

I’m on the verge of something specialI’ve got an album sleeve, black vinylThere’s magic here in mono tracksIt’s what I need to take me back

Oh, it seems to take me high, so highI'm going to believe to make it fine, so fineI hear the stereo

I’ve gotta hear that static silenceI’ve gotta feel the warmth of vinylThirty-three, I switch to playIt’s what I need to take me back

Oh, it seems to take me high, so highI'm going to believe to make it fine, so fineI hear the stereoIt takes me high, so highGoing to believe to make it fine, so fineI hear the stereo

1964

Page 6: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

Always the last one left, always the last one tryingAnd when it gets too much, I never let it goAh, I'm trying, ah, I'm still ...

I believe I can like everyone elseI want to stay in betweenI don’t need you knowing ‘bout everyone elseI want to stay in between

Always the first one out of any confrontationAnd when it gets too much I try to play it slowAh, I'm trying, ah, I'm still ...

I believe I can like everyone elseI want to stay in betweenI don’t need you knowing ‘bout everyone elseI want to stay in between, in between

I don’t need you knowing ‘bout everyoneI don’t need you knowing ...

In Between

Page 7: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

There is a constant background noiseFrequency caught behind my eyes

Calling to you, easing through youI want to shake you downFalling for you, makes me want toKeep both of us around

Noise of the crowd has drowned you outThe rate of the world is slowing down

Calling to you, easing through youI want to shake you downFalling for you, makes me want toKeep both of us around

Falling for you, easing through youFalling for you everywhere now ...

Calling to you, easing through youI want to shake you downFalling for you, makes me want toKeep both of us around

Falling for you, easing through youFalling for you everywhere now ...

In the Company of Talking Machines

Turning it over, like the year you changedThere is a moment that puts you right in the frameI should leave, I should leave, you told meIt will be, sooner or later

Fade away, falling through an open stageEither way, I’m in triage, I’m just breathing

Come into focus with the blink of an eyeDo you need a reason, or maybe an alibi?I should leave, I should leave, you told meIt will be, sooner or later

Fade away, falling through an open stageEither way, I’m in triage, I’m just breathingNot today, timing isn’t feeling rightEither way, all of us will soon be leaving

Even when it’s gone astray …Even when you know it’s coming

Fade away, falling through an open stageEither way, I’m in triage, I’m just breathingNot today, timing isn’t feeling rightEither way, all of us will soon be leaving

Triage

Page 11: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

You're there, watching and waiting, across from me at the stationWonder if I should go your wayFingermarks on the window, leave me a trail to followAlways watching and waiting for you

When will I see you, when will I see you, today

Shall we see where it takes us, all the better to make usI know there's something weird right here

Subway, love and graffiti, footsteps echo around meWonder why everyone looks my wayAnd then I see you waiting, once more, down at the stationAsk why we find ourselves back here

When will I see you, when will I see you, today

Shall we see where it takes us, all the better to make usI know there's something weird right hereSadly, I’m gonna waste it, all the better to break usI know there's something weird right here

Take back everything I did, take back everything I saidWhen will I see you, when will I see you, today

Shall we see where it takes us, all the better to make usI know there's something weird right hereSadly, I’m gonna waste it, all the better to break usI know there's something weird right here

Love & Graffiti

Page 12: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

I am going I don’t know whereI could be gone some timeParallel the northern highwayHiding on the coast a while

And we start over againAnd we’re as good as we get

Lingers like a common nightmareWaiting on a grey horizonShuffle through unwanted pagesHoping on a change in season

And we start over againAnd we’re as good as we get

Stone River (Parallel the Northern Highway)

Page 13: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

Have I time to make you sigh?Innocent the naked eyeBut the moment passes byFrozen to the celluloid

Oh, what if only I was a memory?Oh, breaking slowly, oh, breaking slowlySlowly ending

And if our eyes happen to meetWill we turn or skip a beat?Will we call ourselves complete?Spell it out in celluloid

Oh, what if only I was a memory?Oh, breaking slowly, oh, breaking slowlySlowly ending

Oh, what if only I was a memory?Oh, breaking slowly, oh, breaking slowlySlowly ending

Celluloid

Fill the quota guaranteeIt’s all I need to make the team

Waiting by a phone and thinkingTake a call that gets me drinking

I don’t wanna listen, I don’t wanna mess you upI don’t wanna a mix up

Love when things don’t go as plannedCould be the time to show my hand

I don’t wanna listen, I don’t wanna mess you upI don’t wanna a mix upI don’t wanna listen, I don’t wanna mess you upI don’t wanna a mix up

A Quota Guarantee

Page 15: Kinematic [The 38th Parallel]

How you managed this, you asked me, if I wouldNow and then in time, it feels like I know it could

Are you leaving, are you leaving?And you'll soon be, you're taking all you should

Don’t pretend it's right when I can see how it isNow and then in time it feels like I know it should

Are you leaving, are you leaving?And you'll soon be, you're taking all onGoing where you should

Are You Leaving?
