Well I'm lost again, as my world finds it's end. No safe place to exist, but to pretend we never did.

are you wishing on a star. did you know your dreams are sold. to people who dream only of gold. they'll find a way to pull stars down. stand there. dance with a memory. the caption reads it's all over now. do you feel alone in the secret. are you standing there just weeping. do you feel the light is gone. is it hard to remain strong. in the face of all you know. in a world that's brought you low
Track Name: Dorena - From The Window Of My Room
Om alla ger sig av. Gar du med dem da? Ska jag bli ensam kvar? Men, en dag hoppas jag. Se dig, se din mun. Fran fonstret i mitt rum

(If everybody leaves. Will you leave with them? Will I be left alone? But one day I hope. To see you, see your lips. From the window of my room)
Track Name: The Cast Before The Break - Sleep
The sky was gold until it rained. But I wasn't ready for a sign of god. So I'm still here waiting. Not willing to be blinded like a fool. And like the silence I surround you. I pull apart the seams. And separate the sound. But my eager arms are full. And that's how it's got to stay dear. For better or for worse. Well sleep when time allows. Defy all of my strength and make a man of me. (I swear I will let you in). Your saga is something I can't read. Your solace is something I don't need. Asleep or still?

And we will fall back into the ocean. The mountain tops are hard to see. They tell how far you really are from me. The clouds are thick but they can't hide you. They can't hide you from me. Some things are here to kill me. But can you feel it now? We're burning up amongst your flames. Amongst your love. Our life. (I am in the earth it's where you'll find me. You. You're in the sky. It's where you'll find me). You. You're like the sun. And I am earth together we're one. But someday your fire will die. And I'll grow cold without sunlight. And I will freeze baby. I will die. I would freeze. And I'd die for you. One thing I know you didn't know. Was how to fall head first hand in hand into the ocean blue. We count down. Take a breath. And jump. We're falling. You scream. "Baby, we're simply growing." I think "Baby. I wouldn't mind to die like this." I may not say everything that's on my mind. I am in the earth. It's where you'll find me. You're in the sky. "Don't fret baby, we're simply growing. And my darling, I wouldn't mind to die like this. Don't fret baby, we're simply growing. Don't fret Babe, the sun is coming."
Track Name: The Appleseed Cast - Storms
caller: best guess is that we don't make it to 2000. that a solar event takes us by surprise in '99. that's what our best guess is, analytically. that we're not gonna...that the Y2K problem is gonna be overcome by other events. host: well, they don't call you doctor doom for nothing...
