HIGH ROAD
Music and Lyrics by Andrea Wittgens, Danielle French, Greg Roteik, Angelo de Augustine
You could take a high speed train
And I will take an air balloon
You could take a cross town bus
And meet me halfway
You told me babe it's not my fault
I take that with a grain of salt
Words are easy talk is cheap
The hardest thing is leaving
You say you've got a happy place
Well where's that at? Where's that at?
You say you got a dream to chase
Imagine that. Imagine that
You
You take the high road
I'll take the bridge
You
You take the high road
I'll take the bridge
I'll take the bridge
Make a pact to make amends
We'll make the bed we lie in
We'll make it all up as we go
But we haven't made it so far
I made myself a dream to chase
Fancy that. Fancy that.
But lost my way while saving face
Imagine that. Imagine that.
You
You take the high road
I'll take the bridge
You
You take the high road
I'll take the bridge
I'll take the bridge
Losing the light take a shot in the dark
Hands in the air we're missing the mark

MORELLA
Andrea Wittgens, Corinne Lee, Fred Young
Once was a lady Morella
Skin like a porcelain doll
Songs from her lips drive a man to the tip top
Teeter on the edge of her magic breath
He marries the songbird Morella
But soon it’s a syrup gone sour
She bends him in spells with tonic she sells
As romances but these trances are just murderous advances
Morella, you will have the last laugh
Tick Tock, your voice it never stops
Morella from the lips of a babe
You call me
Call me
You’re losing your luster, Morella
Laughing from your deathbed you say
“You hate me in life but you’ll love me in death”
What a curious crumb from a last breath
Morella, you will have the last laugh
Tick Tock, your voice it never stops
Morella from the lips of a babe
You call me
Call me
Left you a daughter peculiar
Sings from the tongue of her mother
A child with no name til the baptism day
To the ear of the priest returns the deceased
Morella, you will have the last laugh
Tick Tock, your voice it never stops
Morella from the lips of a babe
You call me
Call me
Morella, you will have the last laugh
Tick Tock, your voice it never stops
Morella from the lips of a babe
You call me
Call me
You call me
Call me
You call me
Call me

CASTLE IN THE AIR
(Andrea Wittgens/Jimm McIver)
God bless the astronomer
Tripping over his own two feet
He wakes up in a well with a story to tell
And a secret he won’t repeat
Catches a fever
Becomes a believer
Sells the farm for a castle in the air
Madness rolls in like fog on a shoreline
To take away heartache and longing
But it’s shipwrecks and fishnets that litter the film set
And all the starlets are yawning
(They say ) “Mind your own business
The sky needs no witness”
But I’m gonna build me a castle in the
A castle in the air
I CAN'T SEE THE STARS FROM HERE
AND I DON'T STRAY TOO FAR THIS TIME OF YEAR
So I climb to the ledge for the vertigo
Cause I like the feeling of falling
I could never say no to the persistent ghost
And the street below me is haunted
Two feet in front of me
You can take the rest of me
Take me on up to the castle in the air
The castle in the air
The castle in the air
Ooohs
Pray all night for a miracle
And you’ll get a sunrise as promised
Be it brimstone or fire, either way you’re a liar
It’s the grounds gonna keep me honest
But God and the Devil
They both say I'm special
And I gotta room at the castle in the air
the castle in the air
I CAN'T SEE THE STARS FROM HERE
AND I DON'T STRAY TOO FAR THIS TIME OF YEAR
I KNOW A WAY OUT OF HERE
I KNOW A WAY OUT OF HERE
I KNOW A WAY OUT OF HERE

DEEP POSSESSION
Words and Music by James Hall, Andrea Wittgens, Jamie Clark
Will you put some fire to it
Set a live wire to it
Give your left eye for it
Beg, steal and die for it
Will you kick down doors for it
Give your first born for it
Crawl across the floor for it
Shoot a little porn for it
Go on take the money
And give it to your honey
Come on baby trust me
I said it so it must be
Dig a shallow grave, boy
Make yourself a slave, boy
Put me to the test
talkin cardiac arrest
You get a taste, you always want my love
You take that shot, you're aiming for my love
Obsession. Your deep possession
Obsession. Your deep possession
Some people pray for love
Some people pay for love
Some people never get enough
Look around at you the broken frames
Friends going down in burning flames
Play the game til the subtlety is lost
Get it off your shoulders
Hit it like you told her
Come on be a soldier
Circle like a vulture
Ride it like high priest
Chasing down a wild beast
Ride it like a rocket
8 ball in your pocket
You get a taste, you always want my love
You take that shot, you're aiming for my love
Obsession. Your deep possession
Obsession. Your deep possession
Obsession. Your deep possession

GIRL IN A BOX
Andrea Wittgens and Liv Mueller
I signed on the line
How could I know it was just smoke and mirrors
Hey, give it a try
Don't ask why
They could be wrong about you
All glitter and stars
I was not far from losing my head over you
There's magic in hearts
Come as you are
It's magic that you can pay for
I'm the girl who spins for tokens
Disappears but I'm not broken
Fold me in your guillotine
I'll lose my head but I don't scream
Every night
Lock me me up tight
Girl in a box
I will be waiting for you
See? I can play dead and get up again
I'm an illusion for you
I release the dove
I thought it was love
But I was getting paid to pose
My skin exposed soft as a rose
And it is just as fragile
I'm the girl who spins for tokens
Disappears but I'm not broken
Now I make my grand return
I see the flames but I don't burn
Every night
Lock me me up tight
Girl in a box
I will be waiting for you
See? I can play dead and get up again
I'm an illusion for you
