Refract
01:52
|

Ah, oh (refract into me)
Silver daggers in the air
I watch them fall and catch a glare from the sun
Then I see you standing there:
delusion or a dream, I fear
Though tinted, the visions are vivid
A haze is enveloping your inhibitions
Take my hand, a vessel to a new infinity
where you’ll refract right into me
(Refract) Where you’ll refract right into me
(Refract) Where you’ll refract right into me
“They can take your world,
they can take your heart,
cut you loose from all you know:
but, if it’s your fate,
then every step forward
will always be a step closer to home”
Refract into me
Refract into me
Refract into me
Refract into me

Dream Life
01:53

Pinch me (pinch me)
Third eye is open, but I’m sleeping now (sleeping now)
My every thought reverberates around (around)
Hope you can hear them where you are (where you are),
where you are (where you are)
Sparkling (sparking)
glitter is covering the dancefloor (dancefloor)
So captivated, and I crave more (crave more)
My arms are outstretched to the stars (to the stars),
to the stars (to the stars)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a dream
Make it what you want to, baby, it’s your dream life!
Come on (come on)
Time isn’t gonna stop for no one now (no one now)
Really, you’re in control for how long now (how long now)?
Was there a limit on your heart (on your heart)
from the start (from the start)?
Work it (work it)
You did so good and you deserve it (deserve it),
but was it ever really worth it (worth it)?
I don’t know, oh
I don’t know how to seize the moment when I lay down
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a dream
Make it what you want to, baby, it’s your dream life!
2005, I’m feeling alive
I’m living, I’m loving, I’m catching the vibe
Life is such a dream, don’t worry about a thing
I wish that every day could be this simple and clean
View the screen: so it seems I’m in the basement
Onto something real this time, I swear that I can taste it
Giving it my all as if anybody cares
Come so far from listening to Deep River at the bottom of the stairs
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a (life is but a)
Life is but a dream
Make it what you want to, baby, it’s your dream life!

Hands
03:33

I’ve traveled a long, long way for you tonight
Don’t know this city well as I do back home
The streets are unfamiliar here, but I don’t care
Tonight, nobody’s gonna be alone
You’re looking so good, too good in these traffic lights
Maybe, tonight what’s mine is yours to own
I really want to feel you there, and I don’t care
how many people hear you take control
Oh, don’t you waste a minute
My whole body’s in it
Take it to the limit
Let me see those hands reach out
Grab on tight and tighter
Bring me higher and higher
Don’t put out the fire
Let me see those hands reach out
(Hands reach out, hands reach out)
Let me see those hands reach out
This is the moment (oh)
Let me see those hands reach out
Let me see those hands reach out
You want it, baby? Own it
Let me see those hands
Let’s explore our options here and now:
cut to the chase or take it nice and slow (oh)
It don’t matter to me realistically
as long as this is happening
Please, this is happening, happening
I just can’t shake the thought of you
Visions of us are dancing in my head
Up against the wall, baby, I want it all
Don’t leave it up to fate: leave it all in this bed
Oh, don’t you waste a minute
My whole body’s in it
Take it to the limit
Let me see those hands reach out
Grab on tight and tighter
Bring me higher and higher
Don’t put out the fire
Let me see those hands reach out
(Hands reach out, hands reach out)
Let me see those hands reach out
This is the moment (oh)
Let me see those hands reach out
Let me see those hands reach out
You want it, baby? Own it
Let me see those hands
Oh, this is the moment (this is the moment)
Why don’t you own it (why don’t you own it)?
Why don’t you own it? Reach out for my hand
(Oh) Reach out for my hand
(Oh) Reach out for my hand
Don’t you waste a minute
My whole body’s in it
Take it to the limit
Let me see those hands reach out
Grab on tight and tighter
Bring me higher and higher
Don’t put out the fire
Let me see those hands reach out
(Hands reach out, hands reach out)
Let me see those hands reach out
This is the moment (oh)
Let me see those hands reach out
Let me see those hands reach out
You want it, baby? Own it
You want it, baby? Own it

Fine Wine

There is no need to run away
The night’s so young, why don’t you stay?
Why don’t you stay?
Oh, my love, my love,
can’t help but think about you when I sleep
You fill the space that I once used to dream of different things
My love, my love,
can’t help but want to feel your hands on me
Your touches take me far away from these realities
So come here, darling: once we start it,
we ain’t leaving this party
without a piece of one another
and a shot of Bacardi
What are you doing tonight?
If you’re not doing me right,
what are you doing here at all, babe?
Your vision’s clouded my mind
It’s aging like a fine wine, oh,
and I would love to get a drink from it
Yeah, baby, let me get a drink of it,
get a drink of it
Oh, my love, my love
I gaze into the future and I see
a different person than I used to be
before we’d meet
Oh, my love is suddenly all I know
Poured me a glass, and now my past
has gone right out the window
naturally: it’s nothing on me
How fortunate we are to be free, so free
So come here, darling: once we start it,
we ain’t leaving this party
without a piece of one another
and a shot of Bacardi
What are you doing tonight?
If you’re not doing me right,
what are you doing here at all, babe?
Your vision’s clouded my mind
It’s aging like a fine wine, oh,
and I would love to get a drink from it
Yeah, baby, let me get a drink of it,
get a drink of it
Falling through actuality
Can’t be found in materiality, no
Just like that, I’m drunk on you
Can’t be helped, oh, what can I do?
Your vision’s clouded my mind
It’s aging like a fine wine, oh,
and I would love to get a drink from it
Yeah, baby, let me get a drink of it,
get a drink of it
Your vision’s clouded my mind
It’s aging like a fine wine, oh,
and I would love to get a drink from it
Yeah, baby, let me get a drink of it,
get a drink of it

January Wind
04:22

Hennessy on tap
I would rather die than go back
to a mundane Monday
looking like a Friday, high day
Slide a little closer, come my way
Come here often? I think not,
otherwise you would’ve been another afterthought,
but the power you hold I can’t contain
My lips are begging to sing your name now
The night’s still young, darling
No need to hurry home
The cold outside will wait for you
Right now, I’ll keep you warm
After that, who really can say?
Maybe go, or maybe we’ll stay
Either way, either way,
follow me and we’ll fly away, baby
Take me underneath the moon
Oh, dance with me, leave footprints in the
Snow falls ‘round us as we glide
with the January wind, the January wind
No one here but you and I: please
sway with me, no mind to the breeze
Up we go, you hold my hand
in the January wind, the January wind
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind?
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind?
Look into my eyes
and see reflections of you inside
Can’t lose that image, hung up on your every feature
Hips echoing the beat, you’re dripping in silver
I’d like to know, what is your middle name
and can I walk you home?
The night’s still young, darling
No need to hurry fast
We’ll see the sun regardless
Let’s make this moment last
After that, who really can say?
Maybe go, or maybe we’ll stay
Either way, either way,
follow me and we’ll fly away, baby
Take me underneath the moon
Oh, dance with me, leave footprints in the
Snow falls ‘round us as we glide
with the January wind, the January wind
No one here but you and I: please
sway with me, no mind to the breeze
Up we go, you hold my hand
in the January wind, the January wind
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind?
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind?
Numb to the bone, breathe in the winter air
Twenty below, but we don’t really care
You touch my face and I touch yours
Feels like I’ve felt your skin before
Not quite a stranger, but not quite a friend
You just might be the means that make the end
I’m not the type to long and plead,
but I’ll lose my mind if you don’t come with me
So take me underneath the moon
Oh, dance with me, leave footprints in the
Snow falls ‘round us as we glide
with the January wind, oh, the January wind
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind (the January wind)?
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind?
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the January wind, the January wind?
(I, I, I) So cold
(Ah, ah) Won’t you hold,
hold me in the—

The Last Time
03:38
|

I tried to keep true to my word and more
Oh, here we go again now, ‘gain now
Here we go again now, ‘gain now
Yet here I am, lighter in my hand, of course
Oh, here we go again now, ‘gain now
Been cruising for a breakdown, breakdown, oh
The last time’s never quite the last time, is it?
Doing fine ‘til my old demise pays a visit
Anybody ever told you no one really knows you?
Never really that committed
to the last time that I definitely said was gonna be the last time
I guess I oughta take it back
Somebody said, “Deanna,
what are you gonna do to make a change?”
That’s right, I said that, didn’t I?
I’m striving for self care, but getting next to nowhere
Starting to seem as if the concept is a lie
Vices wash over me, I cannot go to sleep
no matter where I lay my head down, head down
The negativity touches and surrounds me
I’m drowning in the clouds
The last time’s never quite the last time, is it?
Doing fine ‘til my old demise pays a visit
Anybody ever told you no one really knows you?
Never really that committed
to the last time that I definitely said was gonna be the last time
I guess I oughta take it back
Down, down, down falls the smoke
‘Round, ‘round, ‘round, so it goes
How, how, how will I cope?
The last time’s never quite the last time, is it (the last time, the last time)?
Doing fine ‘til my old demise pays a visit (the last time, the last time)
Anybody ever told you no one really knows you?
Never really that committed
to the last time that I definitely said was gonna be the last time
I guess I oughta take it back
Take it back the last time

It might be too much
What do you do when one whole day
feels like a hundred seconds?
You have to hold on tight, count ‘em on your right hand,
and keep your head above the wreckage
Can’t keep my hands feeling right (right)
Can’t keep my eyes off the light
Look in the mirror and catch my reflection:
it’s purple and pink and it’s bright
I can’t keep doing this, right?
I can’t be doing this right (right),
hiding the feelings away I’ve been trying to fight
Look in your eyes
Where is the heart you’ve been desperate to find,
heart that you’re desperate to find,
heart that you’re desperate to find?
It might be too much
Can’t keep my hands feeling right (right)
Can’t keep my eyes off the light
Look in the mirror and catch my reflection:
it’s purple and pink and it’s bright
I can’t keep doing this, right?
I can’t keep doing this, right? Right?
I can’t keep doing this, right? Right?
I can’t imagine that I’m using up
anything other than borrowed time, right? (Right)
I can’t be doing this right,
hiding the feelings away I’ve been trying to fight
Look in your eyes
Where is the heart you’ve been desperate to find,
heart that you’re desperate to
Find me in the corner of a dream (corner of a dream),
taking my time through the dissonance (the dissonance)
Don’t blink: you might miss out on what you have got to see (see)
Keep your eyes open
Keep your eyes open

Sky High

Feel lost in the thick of it
I can feel the air thickening,
fog rolling in, quickening
Looks like no hesitance
Depends how the day goes (day goes)
Will I ever see dayglow (dayglow)?
They know that I don’t know
enough to find light
Searching every path
Can you hear me now,
crying out for you
like I gave away my life?
Searching every path
Can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now?
Sky high (sky high), sky high (sky high)
Can you hear me now?
Hear me, hear me
Sky high (sky high), sky high (sky high)
Can you hear me now?
Hear me, hear me

DEANNA:
Life is but a dream
Such was true back when,
back when you had fireworks in your eyes
and thoughts of me in your mind
What were we doing then (doing then, doing then)?
Had me from the start
Took me to the end
Took me to see fireworks in the sky
and breathe me in one more time
You told me and I said,
HATSUNE MIKU:
And I said,
DEANNA:
“Can you hear my heart? Can you hear its beat?
Can you see me fall apart at the seams?
You’re the one that I want to hold
when the nights are dark and cold,
but now you’re nothing but a memory”
Can, can, c-can you hear my heart b-beat,
heart b-beat? Hear my, hear my—
Can, c-can you hear my heart b-beat,
heart b-beat? Hear my, hear my—
HATSUNE MIKU:
Artificial dreams
keep me grounded when
you log into my system: that’s when I find
you fill my digital mind
with unrequited ends (unrequited ends)
Searching for the means,
but the files can’t be found nowhere
Wonder if my hardware would be so inclined
to let me reach you
on the other side and say,
DEANNA:
Side and say,
HATSUNE MIKU:
“Can you hear my heart? Can you feel its beat?
Can you see me fall apart through the screen?
Can’t you tell that I want to hold you?
It’s written in my code
Or, are you just here for the melodies?”
Can, can, c-can you hear my heart b-beat,
heart b-beat? Hear my, hear my—
Can, c-can you hear my heart b-beat,
heart b-beat? Hear my, hear my—
DEANNA:
Taking and taking,
but you’re not giving what I give to you (what I give to you),
give to you
HATSUNE MIKU:
Crazy that I’ve tolerated
the shit that you put me through (that you put me through),
put me through
BOTH:
I think that you might be deaf to it at this point,
but I hope you recognize my sound through all the noise
Can you hear my heart? Can you hear its beat?
Can you see me fall apart at the seams?
You’re the one that I want to hold
when the nights are dark and cold,
but now you’re nothing but a memory
Can you hear my heart? Can you feel its beat?
Can you see me fall apart through the screen?
Can’t you tell that I want to hold you?
It’s written in my code
Or, are you just here for the melodies?
Can, can, c-can you hear my heart b-beat,
heart b-beat? Hear my, hear my—
Can, c-can you hear my heart b-beat,
heart b-beat? Hear my, hear my—
HATSUNE MIKU:
Ah! Oh, can you hear it?
Ah! Oh, can you hear it?
DEANNA:
Heart, can you hear my heart?
Can you hear my heart?
Can you hear my heart?

Take A Little
02:40

Tell me, how did we get here,
your arms around me, my hips moving side to side?
The mirrorball illuminates me now,
a vision in red right before your eyes
Never thought I would give all of myself to somebody new
It’s the least you could do to meet me in the middle
Been holding my breath for a spirit to bring me love that is true,
so let me say to you,
“Take a little bit of my time,
bit of my day, bit of my night
Got me for life
If you want it, you have the right”
Held in your hands, my heart’s taking a chance
I’ve never done no shit like this, I always stick to the plans
Never forgotten myself like this before
Guess that’s the hold you have on me
Suddenly, the walls are dancing
My vision is blurred; still, you remain my clarity
(Oh) Never thought I would give all of myself to somebody new
It’s the least you could do to meet me in the middle
(Oh) Been holding my breath for a spirit to bring me love that is true,
so let me say to you,
“Take a little bit of my time,
bit of my day, bit of my night
Got me for life
If you want it, you have the right”
Held in your hands, my heart’s taking a chance
I’ve never done no shit like this, I always stick to the plans
Oh, you want it, I got it,
and now there’s no way to stop it tonight
Oh, let me give you the time of your life
“Take a little bit of my time,
bit of my day, bit of my night
Got me for life
If you want it, you have the right”
Held in your hands, my heart’s taking a chance
I’ve never done no shit like this, I always stick to the plans
Think I would pick up right away if you were ever to call
A stranger to me, but you just might be the end-all, be-all
So, hold me tight, the mood is right
I’ll follow you down into the light

Saw It Coming
01:24
|

Do you think highly of it,
what you’ve done tonight?
Or, does it have you running,
running for your life?
Connected all my pieces,
read me all my rights,
but when I opened my eyes,
I never saw it coming
I never saw it coming, no, no
I never saw it coming
Now that the day is new,
baby, why don’t you wake up?
I never saw it coming
“Every dream is different,
yet somehow feels the same
Regardless of the journey,
it is only what you make of it”
Wake up!
