1. _ Trust In Trust
Music: chan kinchla
Lyrics: john popper
Set your sights on my corner of time
I hear truth but i just speak the rhyme
Fear knows no one if he hasn't met me
I got to know him well and only now do i see
You can run where you wanna run when you wanna hide
You feel like you are driving but you just took a ride
The truth shall set you free is what i hear them say
And to my sweet surprise it does work out that way
Blame yourself, blame the way you were raised
And if you need to blame, you could blame your own rage
Or you could trust yourself and trust others too
And trust your trust in trust and then they'll trust you
You can run where you wanna run when you wanna hide
You feel like you are driving but you just took a ride
The truth shall set you free is what i hear them say
And to my sweet surprise it does work out that way
A radical concept i know i'm laying down
But try it just once and take one more look around
I spoke not in haste till i said to my fear
"one of us must go, and look, i'm still here"
You can run where you wanna run when you wanna hide
You feel like you are driving but you just took a ride
The truth shall set you free is what i hear them say
And to my sweet surprise it does work out that way
And to my sweet surprise it does work out that way
And to my sweet surprise

2. _ Escaping
Music & lyrics: john popper
Come with me and take my hand
Don't look back just let it end
Walk with me for one more mile
And think this over for awhile
And decide
I've been thinking for some time
Of escaping
More than once it's really crossed my mind
Escaping
There's a little bit further left to go
We're not too fast and we're not too slow
The deadline's ours, we're doing fine
I'm not yours and you're not mine
Please decide
Come see what the madman sees
In escaping
The endless possibilities
Of escaping...i'm escaping
When you try to look around but the walls are closing in
And you've got just enough strength to think of starting again
But you don't have the time you cannot think or hesitate
Because the bus just left and you're seven hours late
And all you can see is the sun going down
In some far away land in some far away town
And all of a sudden you find you just don't care
And you'd give everything you have if you could be over there
And even though you don't know how
But you think you know why
You could be full of shit
But you could give it a real good try
Try...try...please try...try
I see the decision in your eyes
No, it's ok, and i'm not surprised
See just like you, i'm not afraid
Of being scared of the choice you made
So did i
You see nobody said that your life is fair
So you turn around now you know your home's back there
I've got to find out what i can see
I love you and remember me
Please don't cry...don't cry
Oh say good-bye my friend
I'm escaping
I guess all i can do is recommend
Escaping
Try escaping
Try escaping
Try escaping
Try escaping...

3. _ Regarding Steven
Music & lyrics: john popper
Well i've guessed your name and i'm sure you know mine
I'd like to discuss our mutual friend
I can't help but feel that i left him behind
Does he still stay with you or did his pain ever end
I guess
I don't deserve to know
If he ever let go
I guess
I don't really need to see
If he wound up with you or did he ever break free
When we were both young, you took us in
And taught us to play survival games
He'd lost so much that you let him win
But i had a home so it just wasn't the same
I had the strength
To look you in the eye
And say goodbye
I was lucky
And i didn't have to play
Does he still stay with you or did he get away
I used what i had and i escaped
I smelled something good and i followed its track
But all he could smell was the world that you shaped
It took all my strength and i just couldn't look back
I remember him
Calling after me
I keep that memory
The last thing he screamed out aloud
Was "hey don't you leave me alone!"
Yeah he might live with you but he called me his home
I guessed your name and some day so will he
Cause one of these ides he's gonna break free
Cause one of these ides he's gonna break free
Cause one of these ides he's gonna break...

4. _ Featherhead And Lucky Lack
Music: chan kinchla
Lyrics: john popper
I remember hearing a story
About a girl who wanted to fly
Something about dreams as fragile as bubbles
Well perhaps it won't apply
It seems she'd flap her arms every day and every night
As hard and as long as she could
She knew her dream needed all the love she could give it
For it to do her any good
One night her heart spoke in a dream
It told her if you really love this believe, because
It takes the guiltiest of eyes
To condemn the man who dies
It takes a thousand of his best spies
To expose as many lies
It could take weeks for me to say
How it'll take forever to go away
And it takes everything you have
Everything to be in love
Well across the street there lived a little boy
Sad disfigured child with two humps on his back
Pitiful autistic little mess in a wheelchair
The other kids all named him lack
But lack started to take an interest
In that girl across the way
He'd watch in amazement from his window
While she flapped her arms
And that's how they'd spend their days
She'd soon inspire him to stand
That girl everyone called featherhead
Made him clearly understand
That
It takes the guiltiest of eyes
To condemn the man who dies
It takes a thousand of his best spies
To expose as many lies
It could take weeks for me to say
How it'll take forever to go away
And it takes everything you have
Everything to be in love
Soon lack could walk and talk and hide his humps
And people realized how clever he could be
Feather still dreaming about the skies
Unaware of how in love lack was with she
One day she quit flapping her arms at last
Convinced that she'd accomplished nothing at all
When lack heard this he ran, not walked to her house
And he begged her, yes he begged her not to let rome fall
He said "everything i am now is for and because of you
You see i understand your secret and i swear to god it's all true"
It takes the guiltiest of eyes
To condemn the man who dies
It takes a thousand of his best spies
To finally realize
That it takes the strength of samson's hair
To enter if you dare
And it takes icarus in flight
To provoke the gods to fight
It could take weeks for me to say
And it'll take forever to go away
And it takes everything you have
Everything to be in love
Well time wears on, and soon featherhead and lack had to grow up
Featherhead didn't quit and would be finishing flight school soon
She works for nasa exploring space
Flying regularly to jupiter's seventh moon
Lack defying all laws of gravity and otherwise flew away
You see those humps on his back grew into great big gossamer wings
He changed his name to luck because he had so much
He still flies where he's needed, doing all sorts of nifty and amazing things
From time to time they meet up in the sky to celebrate
Tax dollars and miracles can let the weirdest people date
It takes the guiltiest of eyes
To condemn the man who dies
It takes a thousand of his best spies
To expose as many lies
It could take weeks for me to say
How it'll take forever to go away
And it takes everything you have
Everything to be in love
I remember hearing a story...
