In Order To Survive

I walked into her fire
When I told her she was wrong
She said time is running out,
We’re not gettin any younger
She took me by the hand
Smiled n dragged me
On the dance floor,
And she said

Are you always this mature
i told her I’m not sure
Is your heart an open door
And we danced on the empty floor

You, you’re trying to prove something
Told her i didn’t have any answers anyhow
Just worries and questions
And mountains of indecision
She took a sip from her wineglass
And then she took a bow
Then she said

Are you always this unsure
i told her i'm not sure
Oh my hearts an open door
She never looked so pure

Oh and we danced right out the door
We danced right out the door
And i never felt so sure
I was the cancer she was the cure

There isn’t anybody here
To tell us how to run our lives
Ohh nobody here
To tell us how to run our lives
And so we learn to disappear
To dream to dance to cry
And so we learn to disappear
In order in order to survive

I couldn’t help to admire
The way she pretends
Like the worlds gonna end anytime
She says lets shelter ourselves
And she drew me a picture
The colours and lines were exquisite
Even though she was blind
And she said

Are you always this unsure
I told her I’m not sure

This dynamic one-man band's beguiling art rock inventions and melodic hooks promise a sultry escape from those pesky workaday hang-ups. At times folksy, indie and at times grungy, the E.L.O vs. 90’s vibe is raw and unapologetic. ... more
