Stop and turn around Find our own patch of common ground These puzzle pieces fall in place Then they vanish without a trace Here's looking at you Yeah, I'm looking at you I'm talking to you I'm not listening to you Go where you feel safe Plan out your escape Win this useless race Keep your breakneck pace Here's looking at you Yeah, I'm looking at you I'm talking to you I'm not listening to you While the other ones wine and dine so fine With their dirty white lies and clean white ties Skipping the line while they ask if we mind They're ahead of their time but we're falling behind And the other ones stand in lights so bright With their hair just right and their jeans so tight They don't give a damn if it's wrong or it's right And they'll sign all the checks so they don't have to fight Here's looking at you Yeah, I'm looking at you I'm talking to you I'm not listening to you

Danger 04:13
I won't lie, you're a mystery I can't quite tell if all of this is worth it for me You say goodbye and head off into the night with a wink I don't know, I don't know what to think You're alone And now you're in danger I feel like a stranger When you're not around I'm alone And now I'm in danger Don't be a stranger And don't let me down You're playing games with me I guess that this is your MO I'm sorry, honey, yeah But that just isn't how I roll You want to tease me? Then I guess that the answer is no But we both know that we would hate to see the other go You're so dangerous I think I know what's next for us But you're turning this around, you're making this hurt You're just another flirt who doesn't want dessert I don't know much more I can stand When I left home, this wasn't what I planned To meet someone like you and get along Who'd lead me on and do me oh so wrong She'd have me staring at the sky Remembering your advice "Sometimes girls like me just can't play nice." You're alone And now you're in danger I feel like a stranger When you're not around I'm alone And now I'm in danger Don't be a stranger And don't let me down And I I already know You're alone And now you're in danger I feel like a stranger When you're not around I'm alone And now I'm in danger Don't be a stranger And don't let me down

about

The Lifted Los Angeles, California

A rock band born in San Diego and now residing in LA, The Lifted maintain a focus often lost among the indie introversion and click-tracked beats of the day: crafting good songs. With the hard-hitting, just-loose-enough power trio of Kacey, Jeff, and Ryan fronted by Jerome's soaring, expressive vocals, The Lifted are a breath of fresh air in Southern California's rock scene. ... more
