Welcome to Novem

Good evening passengers
We're coming into Novem now
When you disembark, follow the blinking drones to reach the gravway
Please remember to register your body augments with port security before leaving the dock
We hope you enjoyed your flight and, as always
Thank you for choosing us
Welcome to the other side
Flash into the show
Tech augs and teleflights
Drones must be stowed
Novem is the city high
Higher up than God
Brain chips and hoverbikes
The weather we want
Waking up just to dip her feet in
Can't commit to the life she's leading
Shooting up just to get a feeling
Plug and play to her virtual healing
She's just another story of this town
These are the stories of the city high
Novem is a drug
Greets you with a neon lie
It's the only one you love
Red alarms as a ship gets lifted
GMO'd girls with turquoise lipstick
Swap a kid in the subspace district
Love this place, I would never leave it
Someday I'll be a story of this town
And you're here now
Welcome to the other side
Flash into the show
Tech augs and teleflights
Drones must be stowed
Novem is the city high
Higher up than God
Brain chips and hoverbikes
The weather we want
It's all that we want

Legacy
03:50
|

|
Tying bells around knots
Lanyard and cross
Seems that they're locked
A legacy wrought
A line has been crossed
Rode the gravway here, grinning ear to ear
I'm on my way to you
Novem's everglow overwhelms my soul
It's where dreams come true
Shouting from the track, they say move, stand back
Give, give her some room
Years of chats through screens, oh I know those screams
They stop before I reach you
Stars are alive, are you coming through
I am a mariner in deepest blue
Ocean's on fire and I see the end
I'm just a sailor caught in solar wind
I'll be a shipwreck soon
But I'll be with you
Wedding bells sound off
Lowered down, arms crossed
I know I'll not be long
A legacy lost
A line has been crossed

Fight the Moon

Fight the moon
Just a couple kids and we're jumping around
Sticks become swords when you're wearing a crown, I
I am the hero of the kingdom, the kingdom we found
Summer days are made for the wild and free
Like a couple teens who toy around with sorcery, a
A cornucopia felicity, kissing me
No force in this solar system can erase our sound
So turn your volumes up to loud
And sing it with me now
I'm going to fight, fight, fight the moon
And I'm going to win
Endless imagination
Fight, fight, fight the moon
Then do it again
Because with you I can do anything
Perched around the table spinning rumours to gold
A group hallucination of the story we told, I'll
Keep on creating even as I grow, as I grow old
Everyone on Earth has the power to dream
It's not about your age or the things that you've seen, just
Just if you're ready and willing to believe
I'm going to fight, fight, fight the moon
And I'm going to win
Endless imagination
Fight, fight, fight the moon
Then do it again
Because with you I can do anything
Fight, fight, fight the moon
It's over my friend
Prepare for the explosion
Fight, fight, fight the moon
Then do it again
Because with you I can do anything
No force in this solar system can erase our sound
So turn your volumes up to loud
And sing it with me now
I'm going to fight, fight, fight the moon
And I'm going to win
Endless imagination
Fight, fight, fight the moon
Then do it again
Because with you I can do anything
Fight, fight, fight the moon
It's over my friend
Prepare for the explosion
Fight, fight, fight the moon
Then do it again
Because with you I can do anything
Yeah with you I can do everything
I'm with you, with you, my everything
So pack your head full
It's a beautiful world
Ready for adventure

Lucy Lemon

Lucy Lemon, private eye, she's on the case
Instead of money or a partner she's a smile on her face
Independent, she leaves no trace
But when her flat whistles back it feels like a mistake
Cryptic double homicide and Lucy is called
She takes some public transportation to the scene of it all
No guns, no blood, just a pair on the floor
And Lucy's gut tells her that she has seen this before
And as the clues sing, she thinks
I feel a restlessness in me and I think I know why
Been solving the same mysteries time after time
And every dossier I write feels like old ones I've seen
I don't know what needs to change but I think it's me
Back home in her studio she's tying the strings
She knows the murderer is somewhere here beneath all the links
Subtle details get missed by the crowd
But Lucy sees through the trees and she figures it out
Stakes out in the upper city; here are the rich
They dine on caviar, call it subpar, and forget to tip
Binoculars, she's watching them sup
Lucy has got a gun, yeah she's changing it up
And as the shot rings, she sings
I feel a restlessness in me and I think I know why
Been solving the same mysteries time after time
And every dossier I write feels like old ones I've seen
I don't know what needs to change but I think it's me, yeah
Oh I think I know why
Do I, do I
Time after time
And with every dossier
I don't know what needs to change but I think it's me
I don't know what needs to change but I think it's me

Infinite Adventure
03:11
|

Spider leaps from tree
Parachute of silk
Turns a simple breeze
Into infinite adventure
Street kid, Marrakesh
Rainbow ruby thief
Plays as Gilgamesh
Dreams of infinite adventure
I adore how you say hello
A smile on your face
I'm all yours if you're ready to go
Adventure awaits
It just might be infinite (go!)
Noble pious king
Wears a ruby ring
You can't buy for him
He wants infinite adventure
Lovers in Berlin
He weaves silk, she sings
Writes an album called
Finding infinite adventure
I adore how you say hello (how could I not?)
A smile on your face (you've got that smile)
I'm all yours if you're ready to go
Adventure awaits
And I can't wait
It just might be infinite (it just might be infinite)
We just might make this infinite (we just might make this infinite)
I love it when you're infinite (oh I love it, yeah I love it)
My love for you is infinite (go!)

Gravway

You, you got it, you got it and I want it all
I, I need it, I need it like a locked up dog
All the blinking lights of these streets
Reflect off my face in the driver's seat
I don't know how
But I'll get it, I'll get it all
'cause I'm hooked on the gravway
Oh god I got a fire in me to feel that speed, I am
Hooked on the gravway
It gets me everywhere I want, anywhere that I need, I am
Hooked on the gravway
I'm screaming down the street, turned up, and I'm feeling the heat, I am
Hooked on the gravway
And I think it's hooked on me
I think it's hooked on me
Me
I had a dream
That you were an ocean, an ocean
Waving at me
What a beautiful sea
So I built a raft
And paddled to join you, join you
But it wasn't to last
I burned and I crashed
On the shore
I've never seen you so pretty before
I've never seen you so light
I've never wanted you, wanted you more
I've never gotten it right
Gotten it right
No I, no I
No I, no I
No I
I've never gotten it right
But I'll keep trying
Hooked on the gravway
Oh god I got a fire in me to feel that speed, I am
Hooked on the gravway
It gets me everywhere I want, anywhere that I need, I am
Hooked on the gravway
I'm screaming down the street and I'm feeling the heat, I am
Hooked on the gravway
And I think it's hooked on me
It's hooked on me

I want to know if you ever felt what I felt
At the same time, at the same time
I tried to hold you but you never held, never held me
At the same time, at the same time
Stutter, static, not it, never it when it's you
When it's me
Every time I try to make a connection you try to leave
Yeah, there you leave
Then in the mirror I see you
Making eyes from across the room
Saying come over, saying come over
I fall for your tricks, you hide your flags
They tell me not to but I am your stag
And you are my doe, you are my doe
I want to know if you ever felt what I felt
At the same time, at the same time
I tried to hold you but you never held, never held me
At the same time, at the same time
You never held me at th-
Broken open, hoping you could change but it's you
And it's me
Love you, hate you, fight you, break you, kiss you
Then we repeat
Yeah we repeat
Then in the mirror I see you
Making eyes from across the room
Saying come over, saying come over
I fall for your tricks, you hide your flags
They tell me not to but you are my stag
And I am your doe, I am your doe
I want to know if you ever felt what I felt
At the same time, at the same time
I tried to hold you but you never held, never held me
At the same time, at the same time
Then in the mirror I see you
Making eyes from across the room
Saying come over, saying come over
I fall for your tricks, you hide your flags
They tell me not to but you are my stag
And I am your doe, I am your doe
And you are my doe, you are my doe
I want to know if you ever felt what I felt
At the same time, at the same time
I tried to hold you but you never held, never held me
At the same time, at the same time
I want to know if you ever felt what I felt
At the same time, at the same time
I tried to hold you but you never held, never held me
At the same time, at the same time
All I want to know is if you ever felt what I felt

Arisu
Howling at the moon
Nobody tells their story when they can not speak
And no one lets her, no one lets her
Her parents wrote her character as calm and meek
But that isn't her, that isn't her
She sneaks out
And she shouts
Her hair thrown out
Arisu
Howling at the moon
Princess Arisu
Never felt so true
Getting into trouble in the dirty streets
Yeah that's more like her, that's more like her
Weapon in her hands, grinning cheek to cheek
A bounty on her, bounty on her
The cops show
At her house
Her mom falls down
I didn't raise a wolf like you
You need control and I need it too
Her father comes in when the night is late
And gently rubs her, gently rubs her
Your mother loves you, she is just afraid
That you'll be like her, you'll be like her
But that's why
I loved her then
Go be with your friends
And howl loud enough to wake all of them
Su
Howling at the moon
Princess Arisu
Never felt so true
As when she leaves the zoo

Age
05:09

Age is a desert
Soil turns to glass
Time is an anchor
Sinking in the past
From the milky whites
Of your eyes
Who do you see?
Let me know if I'm on your mind
Like you are on mine
Your eyes, your eyes, they look but see no one
Grace isn't love
It just covers it up
When you look at me
I've heard this story
A hundred times before
Still, there's a magic
If a little tragic
In the words
Just when I think I know you full
A wink and a quip and I'm rocked
The laughter that follows is beautifully sad
It reminds me of what I'll have lost
From the milky whites
Of your eyes
Who do you see?
Let me know if I'm on your mind
Like you are on mine
Your eyes, your eyes, they look but see no one
Grace isn't love
It just covers it up
When you look at me
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
I fear I'll become you
Slip away, slip away
Remember my virtues
Before they're hid under the grey
Let me know if I'm on your mind
Like you are on mine
Your eyes, your eyes, they look but see no one
Grace isn't love
It just covers it up
When you look at me
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
Who do you see?
When our time is up
All we can do is love
When your life is done
I hope you leave with love

Shut down
Drop the lights
Lock up the building and seal it in ice
A cold that I already know
Familiar anchor
Down I go
They say just a shot
Is all that you need if you seize it don't drop
But I've had a number now
Still can't bank it
Wonder how
Ooh
I never wanted all of it
All of it, no
Ooh
I just wanted a part of it
A part of it, yeah
Be famous
Be young
Get the whips and the clips and the funds
I never wanted all of that
But I admit I wanted part of that
'Cause measuring progress is hard in a field
Where the things you produce are the things that you feel
You can't measure music
But you can the numbers it produces
So is it any wonder I
Wonder if I should still try
How many times can I begin again?
How many leaps before I win again?
Ooh
I never wanted all of it
All of it, no
Ooh
I just wanted a part of it
A part of it, yeah
Now I knock
No one home
Light it up
Turn it on
Here I are
Piano
City sleep
So alone
Making art
It a flow
In the dark
Dolo yo
A melody
I got to know
Set me free
Or let me go
Pour my heart
I unfurl
Help a soul
Across the world
Give 'em what
They came here for
If I don't
Leave me low
Meditate
Nirvana
Medicate
Hyena
Never I
Go astray
Maybe could
Any day
But now I'm here
Moment in
Making art
At 5am
Now we're here
Hold my hand
What a world
At 5am
Ooh
I never wanted all of it
All of it, no
Ooh
I just wanted a part of it
My part of it

Someday
Hopefully far from now
In a green urn
Won't toss, won't turn
I'll have figured it out
Someday
'cause I'm in no rush right now
I'm on the road still
I'm getting my fill
Of all the life that I've got
Hi to new heights
Hello to lows
Hi to new heights
Hello to lows
Some days
I let myself-destruct
I don't know if I should
Can't tell if I'm good
At getting my worries out
Some days
I question if music's key
To codify my goals
Identify my soul
To be me
Hi to new heights
Hello to lows
Hi to new heights
Hello to lows
I don't know the structure of a beautiful life
It's all I can do just to keep in the fight
The older I get it feels like the less I know
The less I know
The hope of my teens and the drive of my twenties
Is falling apart as I'm edging thirty
The older I get it feels like the more I slow
The more I slow
The more I slow
The more I slow
The more I slow
Slow
Hi to new heights
Hello to lows
Hi to new heights
I guess it's all part of the road
I guess it's all part of the road
I guess it's just part of my road
Step into the future, reach out from the past
I'm afraid of change, how nothing lasts
But in Novem, this city that I built from scratch
I'm the architect of eternity's path
I'm only good with words if there's melody
In music I don't play the game of self-deceit
So yes I am changing, yes I am scared
I don't know what's out there
I hid my hopes, siphoned my fears
Recorded my dreams, drew from my tears
Sacred blueprints for a city and I called it Novem
A place that through change I could always keep with me, Novem
A place where every story has the chance to speak, Novem
I open the doors and welcome you in to know them
I open the doors, you have always got a place in Novem
Welcome to the other side
Flash into the show
Farewell from Novem
Tech augs and teleflights
Drones must be stowed
Novem is the city high
Higher up than God
Hope you enjoyed your time in this land
Brain chips and hoverbikes
The weather we want
Welcome to the other side
Flash into the show
Come back and visit when you can
Tech augs and teleflights
Drones must be stowed
Novem is the city high
Higher up than God
You'll always be welcome in Novem
Brain chips and hoverbikes
The weather we want
You'll always be welcome in Novem
