Pulse Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Recreating new beginnings
From the static comes new meaning
Feel the rhythm pulsing through the science
One by one connecting who we are

Ah, ah

Overtaking evolution
God forgive our random motion
Growing is the fear throughout the masses
Weakening the pulse for everyone

Ah, ah
And as one we'll learn to curve before we break
As our pulse is growing stronger with each day

Ah
And if days should try to part us, we will curve
'Cause together is what gives our days their worth

Feel the smallest changes, within ourselves within our pulse
I feel it all around me, 'cause it's inside us and it surrounds us
And as one we'll learn to curve before we break

Where Do We Go Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Where do we go?
We're sitting on pins and needles, locked in a box going blind
Out go the lights
We never see it eye to eye, our love collides
When something goes wrong
You say you don't want to talk about it

So where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?

I give you your way
I follow you to a place where I am set to stay
But those things you do
It's like you don't know how much love I'd give for you
You give me a smile
You say you don't like to talk about it

So where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
La la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la

This is right where you want to be
Sleeping in my spiderweb
But when it breaks with every morning
You've got to tell me
Where do we go from here?

Where do we go from here?
Where do we go from here?
La la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la

We've got to figure it out, you know I'm listening now, where do we go?
Tell me where do we go, my beautiful, no I won't let you go
We'll figure it out, I'm listening now, where do we go?
Where do we go?
My beautiful, I won't let you go, we'll figure it out
I'm listening now, where do we go, tell me where do we go?
My beautiful, no, I won't let you go, we'll figure it out
I'm listening now, where do we go?
Where do we go?
My beautiful

Ex-Sensitive Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Ex-sensitive boy, did you drown in all the lights and the noise?
Ex-sensitive girl, are you racing to keep up with the world?
It's not your fault the game is rigged
So start to draw your plans with twigs, oh yeah

Yes, you're sensitive, quite expensive your life's become
Yes, you're beautiful, indisputable, in place of fun

Ex-sensitive soul, don't you think its time you break from the mold?
It's not what it seems, life is bigger when it's up on a screen
It's not your fault they made you beg
To be a billboard on two legs, oh no

Yes, you're sensitive, quite expensive your life's become
Yes, you're beautiful, indisputable, in place of fun
Yes, you're glorious, quite luxurious, rather numb
Lonely gadgets and brands and badges, I guess you've won

So shut it down, call out the clowns around and now
We'll come to town
We'll add a message to our name
And we know you're not the same

Yes, you're sensitive, quite expensive your life's become
Yes, you're beautiful, indisputable, in place of fun
Yes, you're glorious, quite luxurious, rather numb
Lonely gadgets and brands and badges, I guess you've won

Counting Down Lyrics - Ben Jelen

You dream of flying cars, and cities in the stars
From where you are, you can see everything
And looking down from space, from where you see our fate
So beautiful but we don't see anything
And you know the world is round
And how to break the speed of sound
But you can find nobody listening

Mysterious, but sometimes it just takes time
And it's lonely when you leave the world behind
You're a diver and you're sailing out of bounds
On a wire, set a course of your own, I'm counting down

At the end of every day, I'm left with my mistakes
And it makes me wonder what have we all begun?
How about we call it love and we can never get enough?
How about God meaning everyone?
'Cause now we know the world is round
And we've beat the speed of sound
And you can hear the people listening

Mysterious, but sometimes it just takes time
And it's lonely when you leave the world behind
You're a diver and you're sailing out of bounds
On a wire, set a course of your own, I'm counting down

Wondering where I fit
The night above, infinite
Who we are, a single star

Mysterious, but sometimes it just takes time
And it's lonely when you leave the world behind
You're a diver and you're sailing out of bounds
On a wire, set a course of your own, I'm counting down

Just A Little Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Once upon a midnight dream
There were tiny little soldiers marching in
Breaking through the fortress I hide behind
Constructing all the chaos that disturbs me in my mind
It's all over the headlines

If we'd cry just a little
Maybe laugh a little more
If it's not worth having
Then it's not worth dying for
We've got to live just a little
Maybe love a little more
'Cause it can't be all for nothing
So what are we fighting for

I'm not afraid to show my fear
'Cause it's the only way to face what's growing here
I wonder if I'll live to see the day
When practical solutions for a modern world
Return to a state of grace

If we'd cry just a little
Maybe laugh a little more
If it's not worth having
Then it's not worth dying for
We've got to live just a little
Maybe love a little more
'Cause it can't be all for nothing
So what are we fighting for

La da da da

It seems I have worn out my thinking cap
I've come to this conclusion cause all I do is laugh
What choice do I have?

If we'd cry just a little
Maybe laugh a little more
If it's not worth having
Then it's not worth dying for
We've got to live just a little
Maybe love a little more
'Cause it can't be all for nothing
So what are we fighting for

Not My Plan Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Every day I write the book
And how the story changes
The people come and go
The feelings stay the same

Tell me what's wrong
Show me the moon that I fell from
Help me to find where I belong
Here on this earth

It's getting harder to return
All the lessons I have learned
The knowledge I have gained
Somehow the tables turned

Was I lost out in space?
Was I looking to find an altered state?
Wanting to save the human race?
Here on this earth

I weighted it down
Across my heart
But when I fell back
I had no start

I have to pretend
To make my amends
But I must admit

This was not my plan
This was not my plan
This was not my way at all
This was not my plan

Papa, Here I Go Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Here, I wait, in a search for words that could speak to you
All will be okay, we just need a little faith
Down here, ours is only one of an infinite number of stories to tell
and now, where we are, there are things we cannot change

Papa, here I go, we've been here before
Standing at the platform, turned against the cold
Daddy don't you speak, you know there is no need
I can't say anything to lift you from your knees
But I still need your faith before I go

The train and I are moving through the morning and I
Shield my eyes
'Cause the first time I'm alone
I am always overwhelmed by what's been left behind

Papa, here I go, we've been here before
Standing at the platform, turned against the cold
Daddy don't you speak, you know there is no need
I can't say anything to lift you from your knees

Papa, here I go, we've been here before
Daddy don't you say, there's a chance that maybe May
Will bring us something to take away the pain

Vulnerable Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Pieces lying all around me
Guess the trouble found me and I'm back to being numb
This time, I have come to realize
If I take the same line, I'll be back to where I'm from

Keep me free, keep me away, keep me believable, keep me vulnerable

Faded, I'm becoming jaded
No way to escape it and not be on the run
Weakening, I feel myself repeating
What do I have to lose before I put you down?

Keep me free, keep me away, keep me believable, keep me vulnerable
I need to feel, feel to be free so keep me sensitive, keep me vulnerable

And I'll be floating around, getting lost in the songs I bring
Looking for the simple things to keep myself awake

Wasted, getting so complacent
Taking things for granted
And time's been creeping by

Keep me free, keep me away, keep me believable, keep me vulnerable
I need to feel, feel to be free so keep me sensitive, keep me vulnerable

Mr. Philosopher Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Mr. Sailor, sail your seas but navigate the way back home
Mr. Philosopher agrees and he thinks that you should know
To follow the sun, when you don't know where
Where you're from

And to let a moment change your mind
And let a mind meet someone else's
And to let somebody else be right
'Cause if you're wise, you know nothing at all

Mrs. Naturally extreme, you're beautiful to me
'Cause in your eyes I see you're clean of the disposable machine
Yeah, all that you need is someone to
To believe

So let a moment change your mind
And let a mind meet someone else's
Let somebody else be right
'Cause if you're wise, you know nothing at all

Mr. Robber, save your soul
And before you take my things, just let me know
If it were all your own, you wouldn't need any more
If you ruled the world, you wouldn't blow down my door

Let a moment change your mind
And let a mind meet someone else's
Let somebody else be right,
Let a moment change your mind, let a moment change your mind
Let a moment change your mind
And let a mind meet someone else's
Let somebody else be right,
'Cause it you're wise, you know nothing at all
If you're wise, you know nothing at all

Short Of The World Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Said you don't like it, said you don't need it
Promised everything short of the world
Said you don't love me, just like to shove me
Promised everything short of the world
On and on and on we go

Remember, all those times, fit like rhymes, all this life
Long ago, New York snow, like a globe, long ago
Cupid's bow, what a show, what a glow, didn't know
Soft hello, long ago

Call me your baby, stop saying maybe
Just give everything, short of the world
Drown me in kisses, your hits and misses
Just give everything short of the world
On and on and on we go
On and on and on we go

Remember, all those times, brand new wine, all this life
Understand, I'm your man, not your plan, understand
It's my hand, not a brand, I'm a fan, yes we can
We're a band, understand

Our last engagement, house near the pavement
We gave everything short of the world
Love is soft labor no time to savor
We gave everything short of the world
On and on and on we go
On and on and on we go

Remember, all those times, eyes would shine, all this life
Memories, thick as thieves, little seeds, memories
One lady, haunting me, can't you see, I can't breathe
Set me free memories

On and on and on we go
On and on and on we go

Wreckage Lyrics - Ben Jelen

A whisper to my ear, I'll make the words out through the waves
Since you've not been here, I've changed my tune
And all I can hear is your sound, and I'd say you're coming 'round

I can feel the sunlight barely breaking on the sea
I don't want to miss you, I don't want you missing me
It's about time we climb out of the wreckage
I can see a way now, you could come and rescue me
I don't want to waste this, I don't want it wasting me
It's about time we climb out of the wreckage,
Sky is ours to write, we can finally send the message

This won't disappear, 'cause we can't let go of what we love
Cannot interfere, I'm not afraid
I know that the darkness come on the closer we get to dawn

I can feel the sunlight barely breaking through the trees
I don't want to miss you, I don't want you missing me
It's about time we climb out of the wreckage
I can see a way now, you could come and rescue me
I don't want to waste this, I don't want it wasting me
It's about time we climb out of the wreckage
Sky is ours to write, we can finally send the message

Long before the damage is done
Long before we've got to listen, listen, listen, listen, listen

I can feel the sunlight barely breaking into me
I don't want to miss you, I don't want you missing me
It's about time we climb out of the wreckage
I can see a way now, you could come and rescue me
I don't want to waste this, I don't want it wasting me
It's about time we climb out of the wreckage
Sky is ours to write, we can finally send the message

We can finally send the message
It's about time, it's about time
We can finally send the message

Other Side Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Don't go now, would you stay a while
I've got words that may make you smile
Hold my hand, take me to the end
Be the one and just be a friend
And I'll see you soon on the other side

Don't go now, would you stay some more
I've got life that you can't ignore
I'm on the brink, standing off the edge
I'm seeing time in a whole new way
'Cause I'm leaving soon for the other side

And I will be strong, no I won't be weak
Just carry me, carry me
Yes I will be strong, but when I'm gone
Just smile for me, smile for me

Now please go for a little while
And love your life while it still allows
Think of me if you find the time
And keep on keeping love alive
And I'll see you soon, on the other side

Driver Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Look into the mirror
Tell me who you see
Look into my eyes
And tell me what you need

‘Cause you’re the driver,
and you’re driving us straight into the ground
yeah you’re the driver, you’ve got to bring this back around

Stare a little harder
At who you need to be
Don’t give me no excuses,
I give you everything you need
In the reflection, I’m not the one who’s driving now
Yeah you’re the driver, and you’re driving us straight into the ground
yeah you’re the driver, you’ve got to bring this back around

a victim to your conscience, your instincts
Spinning in and out in a constant struggle for the control

Look into the glass
And tell me what you see
Who are you to talk about
Which side is real?
In the reflection, I am the one who’s driving now
Now I’m the driver, I’m bringing this back around
Yes I’m the driver, and soon we’ll leave the ground

Teenage Suburban Queen Lyrics - Ben Jelen

She wants to be a rock star, a real one that can play guitar,
She's lookin' in the mirror, she say's 'girl your gonna go far,'
Her Daddy's job is money, so she don't know no other way,
If you're thinkin 'bout her birthday, anything but jewelry would be a mistake

My teenage suburban queen, she won't let you in till you've been down on your knees,
My little teenage suburban queen its time to let you go, let you go...

Forgotten why I found you so irresistable
Girl, I said I'm sorry but I can't do this anymore
I thought that I could change you, but you're superficial to the bone,
You cried when you got that nose ring, but you're real tough on the telephone,

My teenage suburban queen, she won't let you in till you've been down on your knees,
My little teenage suburban queen its time to let you go, let you go...

Room 1023 Lyrics - Ben Jelen

In room 1023,
if you could only know what you're about to see
you will be ready for what comes to be,
for what comes to be.

You will walk and you will fly, you won't stop to
question why,
you will learn, you will grow, it doesn't matter where
you go
You will float on down the road, and you'll be
dreaming as you float,
holding everything you need in your arms.

Well you're on the road,
living life like you have never lived before,
you won't let nothing hold you in,
on your way to freedom.

You will walk and you will fly, you won't stop to
question why,
you will learn, you will grow, it doesn't matter where
you go
You will float on down the road, and you'll be
dreaming as you float,
holding everything you need in your arms.

In room 1027, you'll discover heaven,
she'll be like nothing you've ever seen,
like you've never seen.

You will walk and you will fly, you won't stop to
question why,
you will learn, you will grow, it doesn't matter where
you go
You will float on down the road, and you'll be
dreaming as you float,
holding everything you need in your arms.

Tell Me Everything Lyrics - Ben Jelen

tell me all the things that lie behind your eyes,
and tell me all the things you see.
it doesn't matter if you take your time, we've got all night,
and nights as long as we can dream

'cause when your arms surround me,
youknow I love the way you let me in
and tell me everything.
no matter what they tell me,
I know there couldn't be no sweeter sin,
oh show me everything

they say I'm crazy and I'm young and I'm ideal
they say that this could never last
but baby tell me would you change for me?
I'd change for you,
you know I wouldn't change a thing.

cause when your hair falls round me,
you know I love the way you let me in
and tell me everything
no matter what they tell me, I know there couldn't be no sweeter sin, oh show me everything...

tell me that you're gonna save me,
tell me you'll be true,
tell me that you love me baby,
I'll fall in love with you.

tell me that you're gonna save me,
tell me you'll be true
tell me that you love me baby,
I'll fall in love with you...

Baby Girl Lyrics - Ben Jelen

baby girl, time for waking
for your love, we've been aching
open up your eyes, dawn is breaking
Find the whole new world thats been waiting

In your dreams, be reborn
Through your sleep, free your soul

You'll never be left alone, you'll always be here at home,
We'll be holding you together, we'll remember how you shone
You'll soon be on your own way, you'll rise to a fresh new day,
When you run through fields of flowers, you'll recall from where you came

Daddy's girl, no more crying
In strong arms, you'll be lying
mother of the child, you'll be shining
newborn spark of life, soon arriving

as she dreams, with a kiss
from all of us, tell her this

You'll never be left alone, you'll always be here at home,
We'll be holding you together, we'll remember how you shone
You'll soon be on your own way, you'll rise to a fresh new day,
When you run through fields of flowers, you'll recall from where you came

believe in circles
believe in grace
we'll miss you daughter
miss you sister
miss you lover
miss you friend

baby girl, time for waking
for your love, we've been aching
open up your eyes, dawn is breaking
Find the whole new world thats been waiting

Come On Lyrics - Ben Jelen

And finally the silence
Looking out, looking back across the sky
Trying to find a meaning
Knowing that I just left it all behind
Still I smell a lingering softness
Where did she go
How did she go
I wanna wanna know
I wanna know that she'll be coming here to me

[Chorus:]
Come on
Without you I'll never feel the love inside of me
Come on, you know that we belong
Come on, come on, come on, come on

Thinking back before her
I never knew the meaning of alone
Still the flag is feeling foreign
I live the day to escape into a phone
Speaking of a world not real then
Where did she go
How did she go
I wanna wanna know
I wanna know that she'll be coming here to me

[Chorus]

Cause each of her kisses
How my heart misses
She's coming
She's coming here to me
I'm needing
Desiring to kiss her now
I'm living for her
Breathing for her
Singing for her fairytale

[Chorus]

Come on
Without you I'll never feel the love inside of me
Come on, come on, come on, come on

Come on...

Rocks Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Strokes of dark, a brush of light,
I watch you bring your canvas into light.
Oh I know thats how you see the world,
I know that you see anything you like.
But now I'm doubting me,
I know I shouldn't be but
I've been down, I've been down

Cause it was love wasn't it?
Well its killing me not having it.
Its hard to not remeber,
Forget its not the same,
When still you come and tell me
'sorry I came without an invitation-just wanted to be loved.'

The last perfect thing,
You know that you bring me back to life.
On and on and on and on,
I think about you all day long,
I need you to be stronger.
Cause now I'm doubting me -
I know I shouldn't be but
I've been down, I've been down

Cause it was love...

Yeah, I hear the sound,
And I know that you'll be
Coming round - you know I'll wait for you.

Oh love, its killing me not having it.
I need you to
Be stronger, don't wanna hear the sound,
'cause rocks upoun my window mean that you're coming round.
And how could I resist when I think you're still in love.
How can I move on when I wanna be in love with you.

She'll Hear You Lyrics - Ben Jelen

The years flash by, today melts to yesterdays memories,
Time's holding us tight
I'm looking back to remember the days we said we'd never say goodbye.

And now you're gone, my hands melt to yesterday's melodies
Time's pushing along,
Still looking back to hold on to the days we said we'd never say goodbye.

Sometimes I feel like we've been running too far from the truth
You know I'm tired of hearing 'another day another time'
All this senseless waiting won't fill these dark empty rooms,
Why won't you come home?

I wish, I feel, I can't believe I've seen these nights
Pass by, those hands, what happened to those eyes, my
Eyes seduced by that smile that crumbles away, washes
Away those tears, let tears roll by, she'll hear you
Cry, yeah she'll hear you.

Sometimes I feel...
You know I hate to say it, but since you've gone I know that

Even though I'm feeling low, I guess I'm feeling free.
We can live our own existence 'cause I know these
Dreams will bring you back to me.

I'm dreaming a world with you, I wish the night was longer
I'm chasing the way we were, I wish that I could catch us.
I'm feeling your hand in mine, I wish I'd held it closer
I know that I will soon find, I know that she can hear me say

She'll hear you, these dreams will bring you back to me.

Give It All Away Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Swinging round in circles, looking for the way,
Fleeing from the time when she wanted me to stay.
My world is swirling round, this time I know it well,
Our love is coming down again.

Then I realize inside me, I've had myself all wrong,
This time I know for certain, I've never been that strong
The moment you remember, those times you stop to think,
Our love will come undone again.

But with demons sitting at my side,
An angel's come to ask me why
And slowly I give up inside to say
To feel alive, I'd give it all away

Destructive words to make it so, but none of this is you you know

Another year, another week, another set of summer sheets
Another 'we should hang out again soon'
Another drink, another kiss

And with demons sitting at my side,
Another angel asks me why
And it doesn't take too much to say
To feel alive, I'd give it all away

Again, and again and again

Then she's sitting at my side
An angel's come to ask me why
And it takes nothing to say
To feel alive, I'll give it all away.

Every Step Lyrics - Ben Jelen

You know me,
You know my every step
Since you I feel like no one understands
I know this, I tangled with your lips
Since you the sun has gone into eclipse

Close our eyes realize were running circles in the sun
I'm feeling fine just losing time and knowing your the one
So come with me come with me
I cant wait till we run away cos we need no reasons
Run away cos we love the night

You know me,
You know my every step
Since you I feel like no one understands
I know this I tangled with your lips
Since you the sun has gone into eclipse

Through the dark make a start and we'll leave this all behind
Lose the time free our mind and well build a paradise

Come with me come with me
I cant wait till we run away cos we need no reasons
Run away cos we love the night

Oh, oh, oh, I wanna run away
Oh oh run away with you..

You know me,
You know my every step
Since you I feel like no one understands
I know this I tangled with your lips
Since you the sun has gone into eclipse

You know me,
You know my every step
Since you I feel like no one understands
I know this I tangled with your lips
Since you the sun has gone into eclipse

Christine Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Christine, she tells me that she's in love again
Christine, she says that she still loves me
She stands there calling my name in her boyfriend's jacket in the rain
I guess she's in love with the whole damn world
And the whole world loves her
Won't turn without her
It has to have her
I can't live without her

Just one moment with Christine
You know exactly what I mean
She stays a night and then she leaves
Just a little hope in between
One more moment with Christine
It's like a lifetime where've I been
I want to live to the extreme
I need another taste of Christine
Oh, I need another taste, another taste of Christine

Christine, the touch of another human touch
There whispered breath falling on your skin
I don't know where to begin
Well, I just arrived, now I'm locked in
And now I'm caught in your mixed up world
And the whole world loves you
Won't turn without you
It has to have you
I can't live without you

Just one moment with Christine
You know exactly what I mean
She stays a night and then she leaves
Just a little hope in between
One more moment with Christine
It's like a lifetime where've I been
I want to live to the extreme
Won't you tell me, who is Christine?
How many times will it take for me to learn?
Tell me, are we headed for nowhere?
Christine
How many times will it take for me to learn?
Tell me, are we headed for nowhere?

And the whole world loves her...

Just one moment with Christine
You know exactly what I mean
She stays a night and then she leaves
Just a little hope in between
One more moment with Christine
It's like a lifetime where've I been
I want to live to the extreme
I need another taste of Christine

How many times does it take to learn?
How many times does it take to learn?
How many times does it take to learn?
How many times does it take to learn?
Another taste of Christine...

Wicked Little Town Lyrics - Ben Jelen

You know, the sun is in your eyes
And hurricanes and rains
And black and cloudy skies.

You're running up and down that hill.
You turn it on and off at will.
There's nothing here to thrill
Or bring you down.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town.

Oh Lady, luck has led you here
And they're so twisted up
They'll twist you up. I fear.

The pious, hateful and devout,
You're turning tricks til you're turned out,
The wind so cold it burns,
You're burning out and blowing round.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town.

The fates are vicious and they're cruel.
You learn too late you've used two wishes like a fool

And then you're someone you are not,
And Junction City ain't the spot,
Remember Mrs. Lot
And when she turned around.
And if you've got no other choice
You know you can follow my voice
Through the dark turns and noise
Of this wicked little town.

Falling Down Lyrics - Ben Jelen

At a stoplight in the middle of the night,
Stuck in first and I wonder if I should stay
The right is history and to my left the choice is right
But this seems a little bit too hard
And all the questions come running through my mind - will I see this another way?
The simple truth is i'm falling, falling down, and I don't want to drag her through the bottom

Then she says,
"Sit in front of me, turn around you'll see, I'm all you'd ever want, all you'd ever need,
Come back into my world, you know I'm always yours"
And she makes so much sense, when she says "don't throw this away"

Its hard to know whats real when it all seems wrong
But I promise you I'll find whats going on
I just need to follow the sun before I'll know if I'll see this another way
The simple truth is I'm falling, falling down, and I don't want to drag you through the bottom

Still you say "Sit in front of me, turn around you'll see, I'm all you'd ever want, all you'd ever need,
Come back into my world, you know I'm still your girl"
And she makes so much sense, when she says "don't throw this away"

Isabell she treads so lightly, floating in her gypsy dresses
Even though her words cut deep I can't deny the truth in them
On the phone she talks a lot and me, I listen hopelessly,
So directionless, I head into oblivion.
And then I decide to give another random memory,
To remind her of the first time we sang out to the sea
Oh isabell, you always understood me,
Please isabell, forgive me now.

...and all the questions come running through my mind - will I see this another way?
The simple truth is I'm falling, falling down, and I don't want to drag you through the bottom,
No I don't want to drag you through the bottom.

Stay Lyrics - Ben Jelen

She wakes up and rolls into the kitchen
She turns on her favorite radio
She jumps on the bed kisses me as I’m sleeping
And her smile starts

She's amazing, ever changing
Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she’ll have you beggin
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

She's off to yoga just to clear her head out
Sometimes sees the world from upside down
She forgets about the song she's singing
As my smile starts

She's amazing, ever changing
Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she'll have you beggin'
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

I'll brush your hair
Tell you you're beautiful
When you wake up, stay awake at night
To watch you while you sleep
Be a confidant for secrets that you’re keeping
I'll pick you up girl; I'll pick you up girl

Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she'll have you beggin'
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

Criminal Lyrics - Ben Jelen

Leaving waves of lies behind, no time to contemplate
Sailing ships of solitude, I never let the sadness dissipate
I leave behind an angry anchor
It’s never too late

I guess it’s in a time like this
The winds would blow the other way
Sailing through a sea of doubt, I have the time to contemplate
A world so harsh to face and lies so commonplace
We’re insecure ’cause we want more
What about the time before?
Was it ignorance? We said never again

I’m a criminal
I turn away when I know what’s going on
My children will ask me, “How did you ignore”
If you really don’t see, then open up your eyes
’Cause its glaring out in front of me
I’ll go by myself

I guess it’s in the times like these, when the winds are fake
When I wish we’d sail together, take these empty seas away
In a world so harsh to face and lies so commonplace
We’re insecure ’cause we want more
What about the time before?
Was it ignorance? We said never again
Was it ignorance or innocence? Aren’t they really the same?

Slow Down Lyrics - Ben Jelen

All of my answers and all my reasons
And all my excuses they never asked
Cause all of my answers they keep on changing
I spend my life waiting for the next…

No, I just keep on moving
No, I just keep on pushing forward
No, I forgot what I was looking for

And all their illusions, I won’t believe them
I’ll always believe what I can’t forget
Cause all of their reasons, they keep on changing
I spend my life waiting for the next…

No, I just keep on moving
No, I just keep on pushing forward
No, I forgot what I was looking for

I’d trade wisdom back in for innocence
To get away from all my lies
I’d trade wisdom back in for innocence
To get away from getting by
I’d trade wisdom back in for innocence
Just for one look through those eyes

Setting Of The Sun lyrics - ben jelen

She sits beside her,
Stares out across the waves as she's digging in the sand
And looks around her,
And knows the crazy world would never understand.
And she says
"please would you find me, I've lost my way, please would you save me now"
He wakes to find that he's out of love again and its time for him to run,
And back inside her, he feels his innocence slowly setting with the sun
And he says
"please would you save me, I'll lose my way, please would you help me to escape"
And their answers lie in a setting sun,
And the reasons why will remain unknown,
'cause we live our lives 'till we come undone
We just have to believe,
We just have to believe,
We just have to believe.
