[Silence]
[Instrumental Intro: Piano, Deep Sub-Bass Synth, Acoustic Guitar, Organ, Saxophone, Drums, Electric Guitar, Percussion]

[Intro]
Ready?
(Ready!)

Steady?
(Almost!)

One, two, three…
(Catch me!)

Jump!
(Whoa!)

Did you know…
(Here we go!)

[Verse 1]
I’m standing on the edge of a brand-new day
Got a head full of dreams and a plan underway
I might take a leap, I might lose my footing
But I’ll trust you to catch me if I start free-falling

You reach out your hand
(I reach out mine)
We meet in the middle
(And everything’s fine!)

It’s not about falling
(It’s learning to fly)
With someone beside you
(Who’ll give it a try!)

[Refrain]
Catch me
(I’ll jump)
… and rescue you

Together “we”!
(… we’ll pump)
Up!

(Up, up, up)
Yup
(Pump up!)

[Verse 2]
When your batteries fade and your engine runs low
I’ll be right beside you, helping you go
You bring the rhythm, I’ll bring the beat
We’ll put a little more bounce into our feet

Pump up the power
(Pump up the pace)
Give one another
(A little more grace)

To stumble, to learn
(To change, to grow)
The higher we climb
(The better the show!)

[Refrain]
Catch me
(I’ll jump)
… and rescue you

Together “we”!
(… we’ll pump)
Up!

(Up, up, up)
Yup
(Pump up!)

[Bridge]
If I fall
(Will you be there?)
If I stumble
(Will you care?)

If we both lose our balance
(And tumble down)
We’ll find our feet
(And turn it around!)

[Breakdown]
Catch me!
(I’ve got you!)

Gravity…
(Set us free.)

Up!
(Up!)

Up!
(Up!)

Higher!
(Higher!)

Together!
(Will weather!)

[Instrumental]

Up, up, up!
(Yup, yup, yup!)

[Final Refrain]
Catch me
(I’ll jump)
… and rescue you

[Outro]
Together “weeee”!
(… we pump up)
Up!

(Up, up, up)
Yup

Catch me!
(I’ll catch you!)

Jump up!
(We’ll make it through!)

Together “we”!
(… we’ll pump)
Up!

(Up, up, up)
Yup
(Pump up!)

Jump!

Surprise…
(We rise!)

Catch me…

Release the ball!
(Let it roll!)
Light it up!
(Lose control!)

Bing! Bang!
(Cling! Clang!)
Who’s got the flippers?
(Who’s got the bumpers?)

[Verse 1]
You pull me close, then push me away
You change the rules in the middle of play
One minute I’m winning, the next I’m in doubt
You keep me bouncing till I burn out

Left flipper, right flipper
(Who’ll remain…?)
Up the ramp
(Down the drain!)

[Instrumental: Guitar Riff]

[Pre-Chorus]
Bump me!
(Thump me!)
Send me flying through the air
Catch me!
(Release me!)
Do you even know I’m there?

[Refrain]
It’s plain to see
(You’re playing with me)
Hittin’ all the bumpers
(Drivin’ me bonkers)

Are you going to tilt
(Are you going to jilt?)

After all
(… I’m not a pinball)

[Instrumental: Psychedelic Jam]

[Verse 2]
You light up the targets, then shut off the lights
You send me ricocheting through the longest nights
Every time I think I’ve got the game figured out
You flip the whole table and turn me about

Ding-ding!
(Another score!)
Ka-ching!
(Then out the door!)

I’m chasing jackpots
(That never arrive)
How many more rounds
(Do I have to survive?)

[Instrumental: Guitar Riff]

[Pre-Chorus]
Bump me!
(Thump me!)
Keep me spinning in the game
Shake me!
(Break me!)
Then you tell me I’m to blame!

[Instrumental: Organ Solo]
There’s a little red light
(Flashing in my head)
A warning on the scoreboard
(That I should’ve read)

You keep me in motion
(But I choose the direction)
I’m done being bounced around
(Without my own reflection!)

You can pull the plunger
(You can start the game)
But you don’t own the ball
(And I won’t play the same!)

Gray skies…
(Hope tries)
Watching rain fall…
(When is the last call?)

[Instrumental, Psychedelic Synth Jam, Percussion]

[Verse 1]
I watched the raindrops race down the glass
Wondering how long this weather would last
The forecast said it would soon be clear
But the clouds kept gathering year after year

[Pre-Chorus]
Just wait it out
(That’s what they say)
It’ll all blow over
(And go away)

[Refrain]
Raindrops
(On the window)
Rain stops…
(When? I don’t know)

They say
(It’s a passing storm)
This way
(Feels like the new norm)

[Verse 2]
The seasons are shifting, the patterns have changed
The timing of rainfall is getting rearranged
Some places are parched while the rivers run wild
The weather’s gone sideways, unpredictable child

[Pre-Chorus]

Let your soul be found

A simple spark and the whole thing’s lit
Get on the floor, let the rhythm hit
One more thought, one more idea
Keep that momentum rolling right here

Round and round, let the wheels spin
Each time we stop, we can start again
No sitting still, no calling it done
We’re just getting started, we’re having fun!

Excuse me!
(Excuse you!)
Pardon me!
(Who’s talking to who?)

Just a little interruption
(In the middle of your day)
I’ve got something to tell you
(But you might look away!)

[Verse 1]
We were busy making plans for tomorrow
While the present was filling with sorrow
We were arguing over who’s to blame
While the whole damn system was going up in flames

We were checking our phone
(Scrolling away)
While reality knocked
(We told it, “Go away!”)

[Pre-Chorus]
Tap, tap, tap
(Who’s there?)
Knock, knock, knock
(Do I care?)

A little inconvenient truth
(Interrupting your groove)
But the facts don’t wait
(For your approval to move!)

[Refrain]
Excuse me…
(Did you see:)
Reality?

Pardon me…
(I didn’t mean to interrupt)
But…
… to be abrupt
(Your hair is on fire)

Flamin’ higher
(Higher! Higher! Higher!)

[Verse 2]
You said the numbers were just a phase
A little blip in the historical haze
You said the warnings were all overblown
Then the weather came knocking that you own

The old assumptions start to crack
And reality doesn’t take them back

You can change the channel
(You can close your eyes)
Then reality comes…
(As a big surprise!)

[Pre-Chorus]
Wait, wait, wait
(What’s that smell?)
Something’s burning
(You can tell!)

No time for spin
(No time for bluff)
The truth is knocking
(And it’s knocking rough!)

[Refrain]
Excuse me…
(Did you see:)
Reality?

Pardon me…
(I didn’t mean to interrupt)
But…
… to be abrupt
(Your hair is on fire)

Flamin’ higher
(Higher! Higher! Higher!)

It’s not the message
(It’s the delay)
It’s not the warning
(It’s looking away)

You can argue with the messenger
(You can call them a fool)
But the fire doesn’t care
(About your political rule)

Excuse me!

I hate to interrupt

[Intro]
[Low Synth Drone, Spoken Vocal, Acoustic Guitar]
Up, up, up we go…
(Where the branches sway)
Step by step, the world unfolds
(And the clouds give way)

[Verse 1]
I started out with my feet on the ground
Looking for a truth that couldn’t be found
I chased the horizon, I followed the breeze
I searched for answers in the tops of the trees

[Refrain]
I climbed up the tallest tree
(To see what I could see)
There staring right at me…
(Was my destiny)

I climbed to the mountain top
(Until the top came to a stop)
I looked out upon the scene
(… there the dream was seen)

It’s right there
(Are you aware?)
… love is everywhere

[Verse 2]
I thought that the summit would tell me the truth
Reveal all the secrets I’d missed in my youth
I thought that the distance would make it all clear
That the meaning of life would be waiting up here

But no golden doorway, no voice from above
Just a world full of wonder, connected by love
The rivers, the forests, the ocean, the sky
All part of a whole that no wall can divide

[Pre-Chorus]
I looked to the east
(I looked to the west)
I searched every corner
(To find what was best)

Then I stopped looking
(And opened my eyes)
The answer was there
(In the earth and the skies)

[Refrain]
I climbed up the tallest tree
(To see what I could see)
There staring right at me…
(Was my destiny)

I climbed to the mountain top
(Until the top came to a stop)
I looked out upon the scene
(… there the dream was seen)

It’s right there
(Are you aware?)
… love is everywhere

[Bridge]
Higher and higher
(What did I find?)
A wider horizon
(Of how to be kind)

It’s right there
(Are you aware?)
… love is everywhere

It’s right there
(In the earth and air)
It’s right here
(If we care)

It’s right there
(Are you aware?)
… love is everywhere

[Outro]
I climbed up…
(To see what I could see)

I looked out…
(And the world looked back at me)

No farther to go
(No higher to climb)

The love I was seeking
(Was here all the time)

It’s right there…

(And so do you)
Then, it will dawn on you…
(The axis of our view!)

Before the sun goes down…
(Hurry!)
Before the world spins ’round…
(Scurry!)
Then it will dawn…
(Dawn!)
Then it will dawn on you…
The axis…
(Of our view…)
Round and round…

Rock-a-bye…

Rock-a-bye…
(We’re gonna fly)

[Verse 1]
Rockin’ in the cradle
(Rollin’ down the road)
Life is but a riddle
(With a curious code)

Round and round we go
(Never quite the same)
You can call it goodbye
(I’ll call it a game)

Take another turn
(Turn another page)
A little bit of wonder
(Can get you outta the cage)

If you’re feeling low
(Then let it go)
If you’re feeling shy
(Just say hi!)

If the road gets rough
(That’s enough!)
Grab the wheel
(And feel!)

Rock-a-bye?
(Oh, no, no)
Why?
(Roll into “hello”!)

No need to cry
(Don’t say goodbye)

Rock the boat
(Don’t sink!)
Roll with it
(What do you think?)

If you’re feeling blue

If you’re standing still
(Use your will!)
Take a breath
(And step!)
