Backseat Heart

you can't fake it
a common thread
you don't make your girly bed
she can't hide it
a static stare
heavy eyelids moving castles in the air
got me up and down just say
you got the backseat
of my heart
knock me up and down just say
keep me up now
and watch it fade away
he don't listen
he don't care
he can't stand your woolly bear
her forgiveness
none to spare
idle figures moving backwards down the stairs
can't find a better way
to mirror off your gamma rays
i can't find a better way
but i'm not going to lose your head
can't find a better way
and i can tell you're going to cry
got me up and down just say
you got the backseat
of my heart
knock me up and down just say
keep me up now
and watch it fade away

outside
break the cycle
take your hangups in stride
outside
where the lights are autumn grey and unkind
is this right?
i just can't decide
don't fear your heart
cast your doubt aside
is this right?
i just can't decide
don't fear your heart
i can't tell what you represent
outside
break the cycle
don’t go fearing your time
is this right?
i just can't decide
don't fear your heart
cast your doubt aside
is this right?
i just can't decide
don't fear your heart
i can't tell what you represent

jason
you said you learned your lesson
but you lost your head and sensibility
jason
a tricky situation
but i can’t work out what your facility's about
psycho
stay a night
gaucho
starlight
jason
supplies the medication
that'll put your head on disability
jason
quick to condemnation
when your pencil lead spouts your obscenities and doubt
jason
they said he left the station
but it's been some time since i've last heard from him
jason
he's in the river basin
psycho
stay a night
gaucho
starlight
(one more night)

Powder Blue
03:49
|

wake up
tone down your denial
please calm it down down down
you're home now
you're late on arrival
don't let her down down down you're gone
you're quick to turn away
too resolute to stay
but you like him oh you do
and your house is on the way
but you know there's hell to pay
my powder blue

The Sun, A Small Star
02:52
|

the sun a small star
it's not by them where my heart lies
i lie here with you but you're not there when i open my eyes
the sun a small star
i gave you everything that's not much
unto the dark sky
i'm looking too can almost touch
the sun a small star
i'll dream forevermore
the shining bright star
it's you then that i adore
the sun a small star
the sun a small star
the sun a small star

Heart Keep
02:59
|

you'll stay in my heart
but i won’t set you on the nightstand
and even out your pleated lines
you say that it's hard
but i can tell you just the opposite
just to get you off of it
no your gleaming eyes don't show
what you were hoping for
you leave without your evil eye
i’ve seen that look before
oh and i got nowhere to go
new york city lights
will blind you from yourself
how wrong was i?
how long's the cycle?
heal yourself
you'll stay in my heart
but i can't tell you what you want from me
or how it ought to be
oh you're pounding at the door
gleaming like before
you leave without your hair done up
and nothing left to throw
oh and i got nowhere to go
new york city's nice but so is mexico
how wrong was i?
how long's the cycle?
heal yourself

Marianne

why won’t you sleep?
you're one to say
but no learned man
could offer marianne a thing
not to be stayed
and quick to turn away
an old worn out refrain
speaks all the same
your eyes hard as lead
your will to get lost in heaven or head down
i'm waiting with the lights turned on
head beneath the ground (now)
why won't you say?
it's all just the same
split at the seams
and stiffer than a queen
your thoughts
best left unsaid then quickly put to bed
she said
it's easy time for me
please let me be
i thought you should know
you just say there's no good reason to be uptight
and the way you show affection isn't right
can't you offer any help?
any other way out
any other way out
any other way out
any other way to come and go...

One Dime A Day
03:08
|
|||
you pay no mind
others split and pass you by
spend your love one dime a day
but i can’t start to blame you
you say you’ll find
a head that’s just as strong as mine
all the things that i could say
but i can’t bare to mend you
you say you’ll find
time will always pass you by
keep your head and walk away
and this could last a lifetime

Say What You Will
04:20
|
|||
say what you want
but you don't say much
say what you want
i don't say anything
say what you will
with a push and a shove
gone inside your head
say what you want
but you don't say much
say what you want
i don't say anything
try but you know
that it don’t mean much
gone inside your head
say what you want
but you don't say much
say what you want
i don't say anything
claim to yourself
that you care too much
gone inside your head
say what you want
but you don't say much
say what you want
but i feel your touch
try but you know
that it's never enough
gone inside your head
sit back when you’re pulling away
try to keep your head down
certain of what she said
talk back when he’s trying to say
that you’ve got to turn down
going inside your head
sit back when you’re going away
try to keep your chin up
certain of what she said
turn down cause you’re making your way back home

silence of the night
deaf and forgiving
she’s got madness in her eyes
you’ve got it made
the faceless passerby
slight what he’s saying
you hear laughter in the light
a senseless refrain
but i can’t say a word
tracing thoughts in the air
your intentions are clear
but i don't see why you care at all
you could send me a letter
that's addressed to where you want to be
she could swim if you let her
you drift down when i come up to breathe
silence of the night
stale and dismaying
your heart dampens in the light
and warms in the shade
but i can't say a word
tracing thoughts in the air
your intentions are clear
but i don't see why you care at all
you could send me a letter
that's addressed to where you want to be
she could swim if you let her
you drift down when i come up to breathe

Wayside Glow
02:48
|
|||
i won't wait for you to arrive
hold out for an old reply
i won’t sleep with one shuttered eye
you’ll dream in her wayside glow
you float down and land on your side
hard earned with a lot to show
beat your head and count out of time
you'll learn how to let things go

Always You Los Angeles, California

contact: headsweredancing@gmail.com
Drawing from
the raw grandeur of the 60’s, the melodicism of soft 70s pop & the sophisticated side of romantic 80s synthpop, Always You (LA-based duo comprised of identical twins Christoph & Anton Hochheim) stand suspended between decades, students of the past but far from retro fetishists.
