What kind of world do you want?
Think anything.
Let's start at the start,
Build a masterpiece.
Be careful what you wish for,
History starts now...

Time to buy and time to lose, fifteen.

When you only got a hundred years to live.

Find the answer.
There's a reason for the world:
You and I."

Chevy's and levees played on the radio
No cell phones, just twenty thousand lights
Swaying on a Saturday night alright.

Slice (2009)

I'm thirty-three for a moment,
I'm still the man, but you see I'm a "they"
A kid on the way, babe,
A family on my mind.
I'm forty-five for a moment,
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis,
Chasing the years of my life.

The Battle for Everything (2004)

There are secrets that we
Still have left to find.
There have been mysteries
From the beginning of time.
There are answers
We're not wise enough to see.
He said, "You're looking for a clue
I love you free."
