Spending Time
04:01
|
|

eastern time, central time, slow down
if you're racing time and chasing time, slow down
you're buying time and spending time, slow down
you're killing time, precious time, slow down
the borderline is in your mind, slow down
once you've crossed it, then you've lost it
no sense looking back
let the minutes take you with them
no sense keeping track
where we'll go we just don't know
all we have is time to rocket slowly through the galaxy
or two or three, 'til we break free
finding time, losing time, slow down
bending time, breaking time, slow down
any time you've got the time slow down
'cause the borderline is in your mind
once you go there then you'll be there every tuesday night
TV's jumping to the ceiling
watch that kid take flight
where we'll go we still don't know
but we'll take our time to rocket slowly through the galaxy or two or three
'til we break free from time was just a line
that we kept in mind but never thought we'd cross 'til we got lost
yeah the borderline is in your mind

Your Name
02:30
|
|
||
|
your name was given to you
out of two hearts something new
it seemed too small when you finally grew
but it was yours; what could you do?
you felt that life was a chore
keeping your boat close to shore
so you set sail seeking fortune and fame and changed your name
but still it remains
tied like an anchor onto your heart
asking you, "why did we ever part?"

Come Home Andrea
03:58
|
|
||

The world we live in is so interesting
A girl make a one man cry make another man sing
Come home andrea, come home andrea
Come home andrea (to me)
There's no denying that our wait is long
It helps if i bide my time with a sad, sad song
Come home andrea, come home andrea
Come home andrea (to me)
'cause nothing ever comes between my darling and her man
There ain't a single thing that can
Tonight i'll be a whore for you and you can dance for me
No money exchanged if we ask the same fee
Come home andrea (to me)
In the morning when you wake
I'm still stuck in a dream
In a different place and time where the sentence always fits the crime
Sweet justice screams
Once this country seemed so far and wide
But you can return to me in a single stride
Come home andrea, come home andrea
Come home andrea (to me)

I've been thrown the gaijin glare for so long
By now I take the scorn in stride
Got no time for pride, that only serves to divide
Got no time for miscommunication
I've been trying to set this straight for so long
Trying to hammer out what's bent
You trust in my intent, you must be heaven sent
And I've been trying to let you know that I love you so
I've been trying to find a girl for so long
That tears have often filled my eyes
Under azure skies as we said our last goodbyes
I was trying to let you know that I love you so
I love you so
You'll never know
But I love you so

Turtleneck Coverup

A turtleneck will cover that up
So sweat it out and keep your mouth shut
FBI (cover it up), CIA (cover it up)
JPL (cover it up), CNN (cover it up)
Turtleneck (cover it up)
Hope that they're not wondering why i'm never laundering
My turtleneck cover me don't let anybody see
Everything i've come to be since she had her way with me
Turtleneck cover me don't let any body see
From the shadows in the streets hidden eyes are watching me
Even the wolf wears a disguise
So pull the wool down over your eyes
KGB (cover it up), LBC (rap the f#&k up)
MTV (cover it up), FCC (cover it up)
Turtleneck (cover it up)
Hope that mom's not wondering why i'm never laundering
My turtleneck cover me don't let anybody see
Everything i've come to be since she had her way with me
Turtleneck cover me don't let any body see
From the shadows in the streets hidden eyes are watching me
Video cameras in the trees
Documenting all they please
Sometimes i wish i could rewind
Video cameras in the trees
Catch her when she comes and leaves
Sometimes i wish i could rewind
I only wish i could rewind

Gameover
04:12

|

You're hot, stop and drop and roll
I'll jump in the swimming hole so i can hear your cheers
I've seen all the episodes
I know all the secret codes so where i go i don't need roads
I'm flying over, over, i'll fly right over you
2P, you take my control
Teach me how to rock and roll or i'll fall down and die
I bet you don't know how to find our extra lives time ninety-nine
I know you tried but still we died
Our game is over, over, this game is overrated, baby
This game is overrated
Now i'm frustrated
Is there no peace of your heart for a brother?
Reset, can't reset the years
So sad, princess isn't here
She's hiding out with all my fears
Our game is over, over, this game is overrated, baby
This game is overrated
Over, over, this game is over

Curve In The Old 1-9
03:51

Down at the curve in the old 1-9
There's been a crash that's obstructing the line
And i'm gonna sing you a song that no sane man should be singing
But my ears won't stop ringing
Extraordinary love will save us from the skies above
Only on a day like this
Seal it with a hopeful kiss
Destined to take you down a righteous course
But they won't let you know that they're taking it by force
And down in the depths of my heart there is regret and remorse
But let's not beat a dead horse
'cause the past cannot be changed
History never rearranged
Only with a hopeful kiss
Will we see our way through this
When you wake up, take a look around
Only with a hopeful kiss
Will we see our way through this
When you wake up, take a look around
Watch the pillars crumble slowly to the ground
Watch them as they crumble slowly to the ground

Restart
05:00
|
|
||
|
See me at my desk, rested and well dressed
Always there on time
Funny how the clock that i used to watch
Now never seems to mind
Tried hard to collect interest and respect
By cutting out some things i thought didn't matter
Turned all of my whines into "doing fines"
It saves me so much time
I'm stuck in a square, becoming one too
Three stories above i hear there's a view
Long way to the ground
But i'll probably stick around
Now i've got a view
Miles to the ocean
But i can't see you and maintain devotion
I wish i could say, "i'll be there"
And slowly the stories start to unbind
And tell me the years spent never were mine
I'm always to owe a debt to my heart
Unless i can find a way to restart and take control
Slowly the edge gets closer to you
You've got the most space with the greatest of views
You've paid off the debt you owe to your heart
You've paid off the debt, now go and restart

Eponine

Whoa my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?
Can't you hear the words i sing?
A crush can never be resolved
Seems like every resolution ends in tragedy
Singin' whoa, my eponine
We swore we'd die to end this bolshevik
And now it's time
Time to put an end to all your woe
(whoa) my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?
Can't you hear the words i sing?
You can't just let this world revolve
Seems like every revolution ends in casualty
Singin' whoa oh oh oh my eponine
Before you go, just these last words for you
I love you so
And love can bring an end to all your woe
(whoa) my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?
Whoa my eponine, you can't just let this world revolve
Whoa my eponine, can't you hear the words?
Can't you hear these words?
Whoa my eponine, can't you hear the words i sing?

Wake Up
03:41
|
|
||
|
Take my hand and follow me to bed
Say you didn't really mean it when you told me to go drop dead
Smile that smile that only you can smile
Say you'll love me in the morning after we've slept in a while
Take my hand and follow me instead
Say you'll love me in the morning after we've cleared out our heads
Nightmares, they've been plaguing me
I'm trapped in a fearful mind
Oh... but only til the morningtime
Wake up and love me, baby
So what if we fought last night
We'll start today off right
Let's put it all behind us
Do something to help remind us of how we fell in love
Smile that smile we're only here a while
Say you're never gonna ditch me when true love goes out of style
Nightmares, they've been chasing me
I'm lost in a labyrinth mind
Oh... but only 'til the morningtime
Wake up and love me, baby
So what if we fought last night
We'll start today off right
Let's put it all behind us
Do something to help remind us of how we fell in love
We fell in love

Light Years Will Burn
06:24
|
|
||
|
Light years will burn 'fore i return
I left it all behind with no concern
For things back then can't be again
Forever trapped in time that never bends
She waits for signals i might send
But they don't come so she pretends
I ran away but i'll be back yesterday
No turning back
Once you're lost you never will be found
No gravity
Never get my feet back on the ground
Love and escape do not compute
I see the photograph before you shoot
I'm standing still but still i'm spinning
This journey ends at the beginning
It seals my fate in the great figure eight
No turning back
Once you're lost you never will be found
No gravity
Never get my feet back on the ground
No turning back
Once you're lost you never can be found
No gravity
Never get my feet back on good ground

Surely Q36 is Matt’s magnum opus. I was unsure at first as the singles came out but one by one it turned into a masterpiece! The space western theme is a story on it’s own. Whatever is your favourite style of Matt’s work, there is something for everyone on this album.
