"Our first techno dance cut that we played live. Kim wasn't sure about this one live when we wrote it as she's not a dancer
onstage, but it kicks ass anyway."...Chris
"This song is about public responsibility for our chosen heroes of today. We must remember, as a culture, that these people are
creations of our own and may not be the people we seem to make believe they are. Read and listen for yourself and make your own conclusions."...Kim
Lyrics:
I'm predisposed, to the kind of life I lead
I've reached real high in my ability to succeed
People the world who taught me how to be
Yes, you know what you paid for the likes to see me, you'll see me, yes, you know you gave me my name it's your fault, it's your shame it's your envy of fame
Don't see me ....don't see me....
Don't blame me, You made me, I'm your American hero for today Don't blame me, You made me, I'm your American hero it's OK I'll be
whatever it takes to be yours where and when I know the cameras are on Don't blame me, You made me, I'm your American hero
My character, is held with high esteem
Integrity isn't quite as what it seems
People of the world want to be just like me,
doesn't matter how fu*ked up or my misery, yes you know you gave me my role you give weight to the state of celebrity molds
Create me, create me, create me....
Don't blame me, You made me, I'm your American hero for today Don't blame me, You made me, I'm your American hero it's OK I'll be
whatever it takes to be yours where and when I know the cameras are on Don't blame me, You made me, I'm your American hero

"This song was one of the first songs that Christopher and I co-wrote from beginning to end. It was originated from the drum
beat and evolved into a song that we are both very happy with. Enjoy."...Kim
Lyrics:
Whispering softly, so your mind's ear will hear
The visions of you seem so very clear
Come take my hand, I won't lead you astray
Visions of me and you underneath
I can feel you now, do you feel the same?
I can feel you now feel the love we've made
(Floating inside of you, come take me away)
Will we all fall down, when we play this game?
I can feel you now, feel the love we made
Going inside of you
As we walk through this valley
Of each painted sign we see
Will we speak words, or just disagree?
Come take my hand, I wont lead you astray
Fate as it is, a moment away
I can feel you now, do you feel the same?
I can feel you now feel the love we've made
(Floating inside of you, come take me away)
Will we all fall down, when we play this game?
I can feel you now, feel the love we made
Going inside of you

"I met Chris in the parking lot of a Dennys' and this was one of the first SY songs that I ever heard. It was hard to tell how
the song went as there was just music, and Chris was too shy to sing me the vocal line, but what I heard was enough."... Kim
Lyrics:
Big brother company, buddy to the corporate machine scratching their backs with money from the industry nature battling against a
corporate clock the final day ticks forward with another tock, It's a Brave New World...
Sold our innocence in the atomic age Now landfills radiate and the air tastes strange Kill a tree to print a page to save a dying earth
strip the land, sell the forest for whats it's worth It's a Brave New world...
It's my ode to a new way ... It's a Brave New World, got to be a better way It's my ode to a new way ... It's a Brave New World, hoping
for a better day
Postpone the ozone, just another spill in the sea... telephone Dow Jones, tell 'em you're environmentally friendly
It's my ode to a new way, It's a Brave New World, got to be a better way It's my ode to a new way, It's a Brave New World, hoping for a
better day
Song to A Friend (Do What You Want To)
Written by
Hill, Cahill © 1998
"This was written one late night in the living room where Chris and I shared a condo. We started with the chorus and it rolled
from there. We had a lot of fun and laughs with this song as it was inspired by some friends of ours. If they only knew - "Someone's Got You!" - Kimberly
Lyrics:
You've been blinded by a pretty face
Seems you decide to believe
You'll learn the hard way, that you'll be replaced
Someday someone will leave
(Chorus)
You know I'm telling you, You know whats good for you
Someone's got you, they've got you now (Do What You Want To)
You sense traces of another's perfume
Letters you found arenàt to you
The phone is ringing, its not you-know-who
You sit alone in your room
(Chorus
(Bridge)
And I don't wanna hear about your cryin' at night all alone in your room...and I don't wanna have to keep telling again and again
you're the fool.
No sense denying that someone has changed
You know who's attitude
No sense denying when you know you've been had
how many times before youàre through?
