As the sun sets on another day And your friend asks you if you feel OK And if you know what you’re doing You’ve gotta know what you’re doing Are you tuned into the right frequency Do you have your sense of decency Do you know what you’re doing You’ve gotta know what you’re doing It’s a well-known fact, you know It’s a long-held feeling in your bones, you know Makes you feel alone but you know What you’re doing Saw you stumbling round in the dark And afraid that you had lost the spark But do you know what you’re doing You’ve gotta know what you’re doing Were you looking for a thing to say And you couldn’t wait another day To know what you’re doing You’ve gotta know what you’re doing It’s a well-known fact, you know It’s a long-held feeling in your bones, you know Makes you feel alone but you know What you’re doing

Marigold 03:52
The door it was open Day after day You couldn’t imagine it Any other way It was the one that you’d chosen But you never really knew Oh what would happen When you walked through With one Marigold It was a miracle That one was marigold It was a miracle One of them was marigold It was a miracle That one was marigold It was a miracle to me After it was over And the lights had all gone out You couldn’t remember What the fuss had been all about Was it the one that you’d chosen You never really knew Or what would happen When you walked through With one Marigold It was a miracle That one was marigold It was a miracle One of them was marigold It was a miracle That one was marigold It was a miracle to me

Isn’t it strange When you’re walking in the rain And not feeling anything Don’t it feel strange? But it could be nice To just take off that disguise Take your own advice It could feel nice And you won’t have much to say About the plans you made It was a strange vision Going through my head Running through my body It’s strange that we ever met Isn’t it weird How you suddenly appeared And it was nothing like you feared Don’t it feel weird But in your mind You thought it wouldn’t turn out right It would only last the night You don’t know why But I’m glad you stuck around When I let you down It was a strange vision Going through my head Running through my body It’s strange that we ever met It was a strange vision Going through my head Running through my body It’s strange that we ever met But it was alright If you say what you say Then you’ll wanna say and it’d be Alright If you say what you say Then you’ll wanna say Say it now Right If you say what you say Then you’ll wanna say and it’d be Alright If you say what you say Then you’ll wanna say Say it now

I’m looking for hearts in gardens Uh-huh-huh And I’m leaving my past behind me Uh-huh-huh-huh And I’m leaving these streets familiar And I’ll be telling my friends and neighbors That I’m looking for hearts in gardens Uh-huh-huh Did you wonder if I would notice? Uh-huh-huh That you only did it as a favor Uh-huh-huh-huh You know I would have changed my opinion If I thought it would make you happy So now I’m looking for hearts in gardens Uh-huh-huh (I’m looking for hearts in gardens) (I’m telling my friends and neighbors) And as I’m looking out the window it’s raining And I remember everyone was laughing When I was looking for hearts in gardens Uh-huh-huh-huh

And you brought your camera along This was before you had a phone And before you’d felt alone Or very far from home At the turn of the century I’m OK It’s like nothing could ever feel this way At the turn of the century I’m OK It’s like nothing could ever feel this way Don’t wanna listen to that song It was the last one you put on And in a minute I’ll be gone Cause it’s the world that’s gone wrong At the turn of the century I’m OK It’s like nothing could ever feel this way At the turn of the century I’m OK It’s like nothing could ever feel this way

Another Day 04:45
Another day Another Pharoah Another day Another Pharoah And I couldn’t breathe at all No I couldn’t breathe at all Another day Another Pharoah The light is low The path is narrow And I couldn’t breathe at all No I couldn’t breathe at all Another day Another Pharoah Another way that came before Another day, oh Another day Another Pharoah Another lock for another day But I couldn’t breathe at all No I couldn’t breathe at all Breathe in another day Another Pharoah And now they’re awake and at the door It’s another day, oh

Some things you can’t remember Some things you can’t believe Sometimes you wish you had one more Trick hiding up your sleeve Was there something that you left here That you wanted to retrieve Or was it something else that you remembered One more trick hiding up their sleeve Some things you can’t remember Some things you can’t believe Sometimes you wish you had one more Trick hiding up your sleeve Was it the air getting thinner because you could barely breathe Or maybe it was just one more trick They had hiding up their sleeve It was hiding, up their sleeve It was hiding, up their sleeve You know that it was hiding, up their sleeve It was hiding, up their sleeve

Lily 02:31
Lily you knew That you were always on the outside looking in Whatever you do Don’t you know that you’re never gonna win Lily you knew You were always on the outside looking In at your own disaster Picking up, failing faster And trying to obey your master What in the world were you gonna do? Lily you thought That if you tried you could maybe work it out You didn’t believe But the truth was easy to find out Now that you see it Don’t you wonder how you ever had doubt But you don’t any longer And now that you’re feeling stronger Your memories a little longer What in the world are you gonna do? What in the world are you gonna do? What in the world are you gonna do? What did you think you were supposed to do?

I was stumbling in the dark Reaching for the wall Fending for myself But the light began to break Came creeping through the door And it came wrecking through the house (All came wrecking through the house All came wrecking through the house All came wrecking through the house All came wrecking through the house All came wrecking through the house All came wrecking through the house) I was bathing in the sun Feeling very fine Happy with myself But I fell through the floor That I didn’t know was there But you were all I thought about As I was on the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down On the way down
