Simplicity 03:40
Lets's unlearn everything we know, erase and deny old conversations Less things to get hung up about, more time to pan for our future Chorus: Promise me, simplicity, even when it's tough Promise me, stay close to me, even when i'm lost I'm tired of keeping promises, they're just words and words are overrated i want them all out of my head, so i can forget how to use them (chorus)

Arizona 03:55
Johnny was a big boy, attached to a sidearm. Started to collect them, never talked of God but his father was a minister Jenny was a good girl, her parents always told her, Pictures of rainbows, never talked of love cause she never really felt it. Tommy was the bright one, the pride and joy of everyone. His brother always teased him, he never got him back cause he knew it would come back at him Sarah was the strong one, they said she was a time bomb. She ran out of excuses, they kicked her out of school cause they couldn't see the progress Daniel liked the silence, when there was nobody around him. Tired conversations, never heard his voice cause he never really liked it.

Its Warm right now but what about tonight. Did you see what she wore, is she doing alright, We saw her leave, she left without a word. her hair was a mess, she had a blue dotted dress Leave a light on tonight after dark, I'll turn up the volume, We will stand by the window tonight, hope the music will guide you. We don't need no locks on our doors, we have left that behind us When dreams turn to dust, will you come back to us, When dreams turn to dust, will you come back to us. Through the woods, running out of time. Got a dream to fulfill and a past to wipe out. Lave a light on tonight after dark, I'll turn up the volume. We will stand by the window tonight hope the music will guide you, And we don't need no locks on our doors, we have left that behind us. When dreams turn to dust, will you come back to us When dreams turn to dust, Will you come back to us. Tonight, I leave a light out , to guide you

Animals 03:48
We met a boy, out of control. He said his dad, had won the war, We sold our toys, the broken ones, G.I Joe's and water guns Chorus: Just don't go alone, not too far, cause there are animals and its dark. oh just let it go, just for once. We are the animals/ Write a song, a violent one. Quiet down, the neighbor's drunk. Up on the hill, there's where she lived, close to the edge. She lives there still. (chorus) This is what i came up with and this is who i am This is what's inside of me and this is who i am (chorus)

Phases 03:07
Night or day, when they are dreaming I am wide awake. I gave up coffee to get ride of this. Things floating around, Can't get them out and everyone's telling me, just relax lay back and breath, but something's distracting me and it's not the noise, it's not the voices outside my house. Coming back to me every night, what will happen on the other side. I don't want to know, i'm fine right here with you. Same thing every night, what will happen on the other side, I don't want to know, I'm fine right here with you Is this a phase we're going through, is there anything i can do. Can someone just brake me lose. Just a word of advice. Count to a hundred and then back to one, think of a beach or a waterfall. Clear your head and then just go to sleep. Try to count sheep, that's not for me, that's not for me. Coming back to me every night, what will happen on the other side. I don't want to know, i'm fine right here with you. Same thing every night, what will happen on the other side, I don't want to know, I'm fine right here with you

Meet me by the river, I'll be there soon, I promise you. And don't tell your brother, come alone, only you. you ran down the mountain side, you found a place to sleep over night. you thought about the things you left behind, you forced yourself to sleep to pass the time. Down, down by the water you shaved my head, looks great you said. Down under the water, we held our breath, you won you said Long live the king and his queen, tonight the night worth remembering. We thought about the things we left behind, we forced ourselves to sleep to pass the time, pass the time

Tomorrow 04:46
My love Dry your eyes, give me a smile now A new day is coming, filled with new moments. The sun will be shining tomorrow. Come on calm down, there is nothing to cry about. i'm right here with you, Nothing's gonna hurt you. The sun will be shining tomorrow

At night, they all came to life and learn how to walk Stumbling around, locate the source of your smell Coming tonight, straight from the fires of hell time to get up and get out So, if you fall and they catch you in the dark Chorus: Sing along, sing your heart out, You might as well bleed, Sing along, You're one of us now You might as well bleed. Sing along, sing your heart out, you might as well bleed, you might as well bleed, for me Run baby run As fast as you can, don't slow down it's too late to hide They know where we both are by now they came from the ground Strait from the fires of hell it's time to get up and get out and get out. So, if i fail to keep you safe

Miracle Boy 03:22
Tidal waves and falling buildings, fire men and happy endings. Stranded sharks and nervous parents, disappointing children crying. There is a whole worlds out there, let's get that clear. There is a whole world out there, I read it here The miracle boy just stood up, after seven years in a coma Are you looking for a partner (are you looking for someone). Are you single, call this number, (are you looking for some fun). There is a whole world out there, lets get that clear There is a whole world out there, I read it here

I never took the time, to learn whats going on outside. And the lies were spread around, you gave me yours and i gave you mine. Well the bitter neighbor said farewell, to the ones who once were friends of hers. And everybody turned around without a sound Don't speak a word of this don't interfere. Don't waste your breath and do not waste your tears. don't make a fool out of yourself like this. Don't bring this up again while i am here. These sorts of things means nothing, a waste of time for us all, These sorts of things are boring, And the older brother said come on, let's find a roof that's high enough. And when everybody's watching us, pretend to jump Don't speak a word of this don't interfere. Don't waste your breath and do not waste your tears. don't make a fool out of yourself like this. Don't bring this up again while i am here. I've heard these stories a thousand times, I still don't know what they mean,, And now they feel so far away, do they mean anything to me. Don't speak a word of this don't interfere Don't wast your breath and do not waste your tears. Don't make a fool out of yourself like this. Don't bring up again while i am here

She was in the 80's always dressed in black. I was told she was crazy, but nobody told her that. She saw the world through a window, in the back of a subway train. From station to station, next to me,next to me. Chorus: Until the next time, take care of yourself. Until i see you again, take care of yourself. Until the next time, take care of yourself. Until i see you again, take care of yourself. She told me to sit down the first time we ever met. She said God is a woman, so tell me how do you feel about that. Then she wrote with her finger, on he window next to her. It said now or never, then her phone number. (chorus) When they talk about me , in their brain dead sort of way. Do you take them seriously, do you agree. You know thy're my friends, but i'm nothing like them. It's only an act, it's just pretend Just pretend. (chorus)

Produced by long time friend and Windupdeads band mate Marcus von Boisman, "And When Everyone is Watching" is a compelling electronic album that connects the listener emotionally to Hen Ree's personal life.
