Stay Real
I call her lover and we call ourselves dancers
We're learning on the go
We take precautions, but we're taking our chances
Turning on a dynamo
We share a vision, and we share the same bodies
Now isn't that what lovers do?
The plan is easy, but society sucks, and I guess that's just what we go through.
Stay real
We're getting much closer
Stay real
Give me your hand
Stay real
Before we get older
Stay real
And never, never let go
We talk to pictures, water cellophane flowers
We have a wishing well
Don't ever doubt of what we do with our powers
When we're in the same spell
We look around us and we see a bright future
Look again, a price tage
We built the pyramids, we built the computers
Now can I get a white flag?
Stay real
We're getting much closer
Stay real
Give me your hand
Stay real
Before we get older
Stay real
And never, never let go
We want a piece of land, a piece of our planet
To grow a lemon tree
To dig a hole together 'til we find water
And heat it in a cup of tea
I'll put my worries and my troubles on paper
Then I'll start singing
Until a businessman upon a skyscraper
Buys me out thinking:
"I'll make you rich, boy, you give us such joy.
I'll make you rich boy, count me out.
Come make me rich, boy, you give us such joy.
I'll make you rich boy, count me out."
Stay real
We're getting much closer
Stay real
Give me your hand
Stay real
Before we get older
Stay real
And never, never let go

Shelter The Light
The eyes of the world are watching
They don't really matter to me
I'm aching and I let'em see
I wait on a wave to wash it
Away into sand-size debris
I'm saying: "Come set me free"
I won't let the darkness in
I'll shelter the light within
The eyes of my soul are crying
I kept them away for too long
I'd blind them, I'd do them wrong
Myself and the world are turning
I wonder why I feel so alone
We burn here and then we're gone
I won't let the darkness in
I'll shelter the light within
