Dizzy (words and music by RAMI) I can't decipher a word she say But I can't tear my eyes away It's clear as daylight I can't deny She's in my head and she's on my mind (Chorus) She’s so pretty but she's too dizzy for me She’s so pretty but she's too dizzy for me She’s too dizzy to see what she doing to me She's so pretty but she’s so dizzy My higher standards my lower needs The wolf that wins is the one you feed (Chorus) She’s so pretty but she's too dizzy for me She’s so pretty but she's too dizzy for me She’s too dizzy to see what she doing what she doing to me She's so pretty but she’s so dizzy So glad I found her now that I came There's only me and myself to blame (Chorus) She’s so pretty but she's too dizzy for me She’s so pretty but she's too dizzy for me She’s too dizzy to see what she doing what she doing What she doing to me She’s so dizzy and I don't care

DROWNING IN DENIAL (Words and music by Rami Homsy) So many forks in the road Still trying to find my way High by high and low by low Breath by breath and day by day Crossroads inside my mind Obstacles at every turn Had to leave it all behind Wonder just what I ever learned Chorus Lie to myself and I buy it Tell me the truth I’ll crucify it I turn to me as I look away forgot what I was going to say I don’t know I can’t remember anything at all Slowly drowning in denial I know the truth can't hide Temptation calling me It ain't easy I ain't lying Sweet seduction blinding me Can’t tell you right from wrong Love and hate one and the same Break you when you think you’re strong Knock you down get up again Chorus Lie to myself and I buy it Tell me the truth I’ll crucify it I turn to me as I look away just as I was going to say To myself that I agree with all I say to me Slowly drowning in denial Chorus Lie to myself and I buy it Tell me the truth I’ll crucify it I turn to me as I look away forgot what I was going to say To myself I can’t remember anything at all Slowly drowning in denial

Don't Take It So Hard (Words and music by Rami J. Homsy) Tell myself I told me so Nodding my head like I know Flashing back but I can't recall Reminisce with perfect strangers Now the voices in your head Keep talking to me instead Heard you roll your eyes out loud Trying to warn me of the danger Chorus: Don't take it so hard Just let it slide Piss myself off hold a grudge Drag my own name through the mud Out of 5 crazy people I know I'm all 9 of them so I'll just leave us alone Chorus: Don't take it so hard Just let it slide Don't take it so hard It will eat you alive Watch you live on faith that's blind But doubt is what keep me alive Digging your rosy point of view But someone got to be cynical like me Chorus: Don't take it so hard Just let it slide Don't take it so hard Don't let it eat you alive Chorus: Don't take it so hard Just let it slide Don't take it so hard Don't let it eat you alive

Fire and Pain (words and music by Rami J. Homsy) I'm down don't you laugh at me Got to try to be mice elf again I'm down see you laugh at me Can't chase this feeling away I'm tired and I'm down Why you laugh at me I'm down don't you laugh at me So low I'm staring up at the floor I'm down see you laugh at me This weight is much too heavy to hold I'm tired and I'm down I couldn't tell you why I couldn't tell you why I keep trying and trying to find A sign to soothe my troubled mind But I never thought I'd see you laugh at me I'm down see you laugh at me I'd curse these walls but they're my only friend I'm down why you laugh at me I got to find some silence inside my head I'm tired and I'm down I couldn't tell you why I couldn't tell you why I keep trying and trying to find A sign to soothe my troubled mind But I never thought I'd see you laugh at me

Out of This World (Words and music by Rami J. Homsy) Whatever's tearing us apart may be Whatever's holding us all together So come enjoy a little chronic with me Chill out my funky brother of mine I think the more I learn the less I know I think the less I know the better Don't you be marching on my mellow yellow fellow Hello it's time to say goodbye Chorus: Something in my head is telling me That the time has come To wash away the bitter from my heart and my mind It's all in my head and out of this world Don't even know what all the fighting's about Feel the temperature's temper rising Nobody really trying to figure it out Nobody packing any truth today So get a little Gandhi in your heart You got to let Bob Marley guide you Take a psilocybin holiday Let love rule and lead the way Chorus: Something in my head is telling me That the time has come To wash away the bitter from my heart and my mind It's all in my head and out of this world Chorus: Something in my head is telling me That the time has come To wash away the bitter from my heart and my mind It's all in my head and out of this world

Gravity (Words and music by Rami J. Homsy) In the morning in the light Losing pieces of the puzzle in the night In a bubble in a bind Running into trouble running into walls running out of time There I was preaching to the choir Sipping cheap champagne and drowning in denial A thousand miles from yesterday and yesterday don't care Chorus: Gravity is coming down hard over me Gravity is coming down hard on me Break a promise break the rules Break a heart don't break a sweat just play it cool It's getting crazy it's getting mean It's getting dark A thousand miles from yesterday and yesterday don't care Chorus: Gravity is coming down hard over me Gravity is coming down hard on me Chorus: Gravity is coming down hard over me Gravity is coming down hard on me Gravity is coming down hard on me

DON'T WANT TO RULE THE WORD (Words and music by Rami J. Homsy) Feed your mind a revolution Find a higher place in time Clean up all your mind pollution It's always clearer in the morning let it shine Surf a mountain climb a river Find yourself on higher ground Through the window pane of pleasure Look inside there's a riot going down Don't call my name don't bother me Chorus Don't want to rule the world Houston you got some problems Don't look at me to solve them Don't want to rule the world Spark the lightning in your bottle Open up your box shaped heart I might have seen your face tomorrow The future's never what it used to be no more Don't call my name don't follow me Chorus Don't want to rule the world Houston you got some problems Don't look at me to solve them Don't want to rule the world Chorus Don't want to rule the world Houston you got some problems Don't look at me to solve them Don't want to rule the world Don't want to rule the world I'm just a freedom rider I'm not the great decider divider Don't want to rule the world Decider divider

Rise Up! (Words and music by Rami J.

Twisted State of Mine (Words and music by Rami J. Homsy) I can’t ignore the voice inside my mind It's a mental symphony Living in this twisted state of mine Worst friends and best of enemies Standing on the edge of paradise So much to still figure out Chorus Something I can't describe takes over me before your real eyes And there's nothing you and I could ever do about it Something intensifies as I get older now you realize Day by day nightmare by night it's twisting me it's twisting you Got to learn to live and love this twisted state of mind This world's a stage but I forgot my lines Inside a dream inside a dream You're not really real and so am I We might not be really here Chorus Something I can't describe takes over me before your real eyes And there's nothing you and I could ever do about it Something intensifies as I get older now you realize Day by day nightmare by night it's twisting me it's twisting you Got to learn to live and love this twisted state of mind Chorus Something I can't describe takes over me before your real eyes And there's nothing you and I could ever do about it Something intensifies as I get older now you realize Day by day nightmare by night it's twisting me it's twisting you Got to learn to love this twisted state of mind

INDIAN SUMMER (Words and music by Rami J. Homsy) My heart is heavy and my mind is numb My feet are burning on the ground I think I hear a distant melody It's just a fanfare for the fall One taste before you run away again We got to be the worst of friends The best of enemies Chorus: Don't make me remember it again I want to hide when it's the end of Indian Summer And you don't know cause it ain't easy to explain All the tears and all the pain of Indian Summer I know it's not a sign of things to come It's just the calm before the storm You get me high before you leave me cold I see your foot prints in the snow You always take me to a better place Then leave me blinded in the sun Chorus: Don't make me remember it again It's my beginning of the end of Indian Summer You'll never know and it ain't easy to explain All the fear and all the shame of Indian Summer All the fear and all the pain All the tears and all the shame

Never Mind (Words and music by Rami J.
