ATOMIC KID
Boundless energy
Radioactive forces within
Spends his time splitting atoms
His life's a chain reaction
The runaway conductor
Atomic Kid
Break free with your energy
Atomic Kid
It's time to split, it's time to go
He wants to go outside the grid
He's not like the other kids
Electricity flowing through his veins
Sometimes it's hard to contain
The runaway conductor
Atomic Kid
Break free with your energy
Atomic Kid
It's time to split, it's time to go
A secret power he possesses
Enough to light the world
He's not afraid of danger
He just wants to change the world
Living on the edge of the city
He never felt plugged in
Always dreaming of a time
When he will break free
The runaway conductor
Atomic Kid
Break free with your energy
Atomic Kid
It's time to split, it's time to go...

Supernatural
Looking down through clouds below
On airborne steel machinery
My seat held firm, the air is warm
An artificial reality
We shed our limitations
We shed our limitations
We can’t hide our supernatural drive
We can’t hide our supernatural drive
Squares of green and beige
The land below a patchwork quilt
Cargo moves like blood through veins
We’re sustained by the roads we built
We shed our limitations
We shed our limitations
We can’t hide our supernatural drive
We can’t hide our supernatural drive
We strive to do un-natural things
Our supernatural drive
We shed our limitations
A super human mass migration
We shed our limitations
We shed our limitations
When our star is dark and cold
On a voyage we’ll embark
Like seeds that ride the wind
To a new world
We can’t hide our supernatural drive
We can’t hide our supernatural drive

Out of Love

OUT OF LOVE
Memories of her and us
Of passion and pleasure
Of a love to restore a suspicious and wounded heart
Of hope and dreams rekindled
Invigorated and new
Reborn and renewed
Out of love
Out of love
Memories like pearls in reverse
Devolve from shiny silvered hues
Into sand against my soul
Its edges jagged with beauty and bliss
Memories relived a thousand times
By a mind that wants to drag what was –
Into what is
The world clamors to fall in love
As I desperately dream of falling out
But love lost isn’t love that’s gone
And I’m desperate to fall out – out of love
Out of love
Out of love
Every song - it sings of you
Every song - it sings of you
I still feel your presence
in the places we called our own
with a heavy heart I walk
with a heavy heart I walk
each step a struggle to move on
to move on
Lyrics by Heath Fogelman (additional lyrics by the Reverse Engineers)

The Innovators
It takes a dreamer to create the future
a unique view of reality
It takes a driver to pave the path
one who knows it can be achieved
Escape your constraints
Escape your constraints
Innovate – dream big
Innovate – push the envelope
Innovate – think big
Innovate – reach beyond reality
The innovators build toward the future
Turning science fiction into fact
Engineering the impossible
Designing and developing the world to come
Escape your constraints
Escape your constraints
Innovate – dream big
Innovate – push the envelope
Innovate – think big
Innovate – reach beyond reality
Innovate – dream big
Innovate – push the envelope
Innovate – think big
Innovate – reach beyond reality
Think beyond what you can see
Design a way through the challenge
then turn your key
The innovators build toward the future
Childhood dreams come to fruition
small seeds of inspiration
sprout new branches of possibility
Escape your constraints
Escape your constraints
Innovate – push the envelope
Innovate – reach beyond reality
Innovate – push the envelope
Innovate – reach beyond reality
Lyrics by Dan Cote. Additional Lyrics by William and Charles Cote.

One and Only
You read me like a book
You know my every thoughts
I look into your eyes
I say nothing but you know what I’m thinking
You were meant for me
I was meant for you
You’re my one and only
I love your smooth skin
So soft to the touch
I love your long flowing curls
So wonderful to run my hands through
I long for every kiss
I long for every embrace
I long to see you smile
I long for you
No one else can push my buttons quite like you
No one else can make everything alright like you
No one else is quite like you
You’re my one and only
My future and my past
You’re my one and only
I love you to the last
You dream my every dream
You seize my every moment
I lose myself in you and we become one
All my life I walked alone
Sometimes feeling lost
but with you I know we’ll find the way
You were meant for me
and I was meant for you
You’re my one and only
My future and my past
You’re my one and only
I love you to the last

The Normals
Doesn’t want to be one of The Normals
He wants to creep with the mysterious crowd
Jet black hair against pale skin
It’s stark contrast he craves
He wants to be darker than night
Basking in the glow of the black light...
Black cloaks on the beach
mix like sickness on a sunny day
And when his fever breaks,
He’ll see it’s just a sunny day
Where’s the gloom and the doom
He’s sick of all these happy days
When his fever breaks
doesn’t want to be one of The Normals
He’s not 9 to 5
He wants to wake at noon
They won’t trap him
They can’t change him
They won’t take him too soon
Some call him a pagan
Disciple of the moon
Black cloaks on the beach
mix like sickness on a sunny day
And when his fever breaks
He’ll see it’s just a sunny day
Where’s the gloom and the doom
He's sick of all these happy days
And when this fever breaks
doesn’t want to be one of The Normals
Why pursue happiness when depression’s so easy to find?
Who needs friendship when solitude’s so close at hand...
Who needs ecstasy when there’s pools of confusion to drown yourself in..
I've been there --
Been through it all
Don't want to be one of The Normals
Don't want to be one of The Normals
Doesn't want to turn out normal
Doesn't want to be one of the Normals
Don't want to be one of The Normals

Running Out of Time

RUNNING OUT OF TIME
Sometimes a ticking clock
Helps you focus your mind
Removes the mental block
Leaves your doubt behind
Its time to take command
Running out of time
Out of time
In life you can’t rewind
Running out of time
You meet the challenge headfirst
Don’t think about the cost
No time to question why
If you hesitate you’re lost
Its time to take command
Running out of time
Out of time
In life you can’t rewind
Running out of time
A lifetime is marked
By how we take the test
Some will fear the worst
Some will be the best
Its time to take command
Running out of time
Out of time
In life you can’t rewind
Running out of time

Some Days
Some days I laugh
Some days I cry
Some days I forgive you
Some days I don’t
Some days are better than others
Some days are better than others
I remember the pain
I remember the years
I remember how you spoke to me
As if I were nothing
You wouldn’t touch me
You wouldn’t talk to me
You wouldn’t smile at me
To you I was nothing
Days go quickly
Day turns into night
Darkness brings sorrow
Morning brings hope
Daytime brings exhaustion
Daytime brings exhaustion
I remember the pain
I remember the years
I remember how you spoke to me
As if I were nothing
You wouldn’t touch me
You wouldn’t talk to me
You wouldn’t smile at me
To you I was nothing
But I didn’t need you
To start again
To find my heart among this aching mess
No I didn’t need you
I was still alive
Broken dreams but the nightmare gone
No I didn’t need you
Lyrics by Angela Cote

Sacred Geometry
07:30
|

Golden ratios and Golden rules
Endless cycles of creation
From atom to Adam
The Divine is in the details
The complexity of nature
Seen in the leaves of the trees
The shells of the sea
All signs of intelligent design
All of life –
is built on geometry
All of life –
is built on geometry
A sacred geometry
We are branches on the tree of life
Holograms of the greater whole
Our double helixes spiraling (sometimes out of control)
subdivided and split
the pattern emerges
We spend a lifetime between the lines
Life’s spiral motions
make a circle over time
There’s an underlying order
Real and structured
It binds us all
All of life –
is built on geometry
All of life –
is built on geometry
A sacred geometry
Seen in the spirals of galaxies
Within the planetary orbits
It’s in the structure of the atom
And the spinning of the cyclone
A cymatic shifting of the sands
Pulsing at specific frequencies
The striking of cymbals and strings
Shape the sounds and
Raise the spirits of us all
All of life –
All of life – is built on geometry
A Sacred Geometry
