LYRICS: 'MASTER PLAN'

SIDE ONE

HELP YOU BELIEVE

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Rubin)

Rise up
Tell me again about the trauma
that caused you the fear and the drama
that caused you to lose yourself again

Break up
and tell me again about the shake up
that caused you to say that you gave up
about what will happen so

Where is the change that you wanted to be
and the superheroes you wanted to see
Where is the happy ending
you thought you would need?
I want to help you believe

Shout out
The things that you lost in the fall out
The things in the night that you call out
The things that sent you away from yourself
There’s a way out
if you can get out of here you can stay out
if you can break from the moment that played out
It’s easier said than…

Where is the change that you wanted to be
and the superheroes you wanted to see
Where is the happy ending
you thought you would need?
I want to help you believe

SOMETHING GOOD

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Rubin)

I was down
until you came around and helped me up
I was dazed
until you let the sun in through the shade
I was here
but never really saw just what I had
You were there
and showed me every reason why I should care

Even when the road gets hard to see
we got something good
Even when the sun don’t shine on me
we got something good
Even when it feels hard to believe
we got something good
I want to thank the stars that sent you to me,
‘cause we got something good

I was caught
in the middle of a flood zone, without a boat
I had fought
and was feeling all the wounds and the scars I won
All the pain
I could finally let it go, only joy remained
All the gains
they were standing right in front of me
when you walked in

Even when the road gets hard to see
we got something good
Even when the sun don’t shine on me
we got something good
Even when it feels hard to believe
we got something good
I want to thank the stars that sent you to me
‘cause we got something good

THERE WILL BE US

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Rubin, C. Rubin)

These days are crazy, the nights are long
as we sit inside our rooms
The only thing I have to look at
are the pictures I took of you
The nights are crazy, the days are long
and they all just seem to blend
into an endless dream that never stops
but we all want it to end

There will be light
after the dark my friend
There will be fire
after the spark
There will be us
standing hand in hand
as I hold you in my arms, oh yeah

The dreams are heavy, the light shines through
and I wonder what will come
of the happiness that we once knew
in those days when we were young

There will be light
after the dark my friend
There will be fire
after the spark
There will be us
standing hand in hand
as I hold you in my arms, oh yeah

UNDER THE STARS

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Rubin)

There’s only so many nights alive
to say just what we should
So let’s lay here under the stars my love
and make it all feel good
Make it all feel good

I don’t know just what I did
to get something good like this
to get someone like you
I don’t know if this will last my love
but I’ll hold on as tight as I can
I won’t let it slip away again

There’s only so many so chances now
for things to work out right
There’s only you and me my love
and we’re the last ones here tonight
There’s only so many nights alive
to say just what we should
So let’s lay here under the stars my love
and make it all feel good
Make it all feel good

I don’t know just where we’ll go
Just what the fates might bring us
at the end of the show
I don’t know much my love
but I do know this
Seems like the world stands still
every time we kiss…yeah

There’s only so many so chances now
for things to work out right
There’s only you and me my love
and we’re the last ones here tonight
There’s only so many nights alive
to say just what we should
So let’s lay here under the stars my love
and make it all feel good
Make it all feel good

STREETS OF NEW YORK

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Taylor)

Hold on to me, I’ll hold onto you
and I’ll never let you go
Hold on to me, I’ll hold on to you
‘cause the world’s crashing slowly

The streets are quiet in New York today
No one’s coming out to play

There are rainbows in the windows
and there’s love in every frame
We all know inside that we may
never be the same, the same again

So hold on to me, I’ll hold on to you
‘cause you’re my one and only
Hold onto me and I’ll hold on to you
‘cause I’m feeling kind of lonely

The streets are quiet in New York today
No one’s coming out to play

And there are rainbows in the windows
and there’s love in every frame
We all know inside that we may
never be the same again

The streets are quiet in New York today
but I still think that hope will find a way

‘Cause there are rainbows in the windows
and there’s love in every frame
We all know inside that we might
never be the same
never be the same, again

So hold on to me and I’ll hold on to you
And I’ll never let you go

SIDE TWO

ENERGY OVER ME

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Rubin)

What’s your name, what’s your plan,
where you going
Mind if I listen to your story
‘cause I like everything that you’re saying
Wanna be in the play that you’re playing
What’s your name, what’s your goal,
where you headed
Wanna hear everything if you’ll let me
Wanna know everything that you’ve been through
What you learned, all the things that move you

I’ve been waiting for you to come
over to my place and watch the sun
rise up and spread out all of your
energy over me

What’s your name, what’s your game
what you seeking
Let’s play hide and seek but no peeking
Want to know all the things that caused you fear
How’d you find the strength to make it here

I’ve been waiting for you to come
over to my place and watch the sun
rise up and spread out all of your
energy over me

I need you to be here
Need to feel the things we need to feel
Rise up and spread out all of your
energy over me

You gotta believe it, if we can feel it
And I know I feel it, it’s your energy

What’s your name, what’s your plan
where you going
Mind if I listen to your story
‘cause I like everything that you’re saying
Wanna be in the play that you’re playing

I’ve been waiting for you to come
over to my place and watch the sun
rise up and spread out all of your
energy over me

I need you to be here
Need to feel the things we need to feel
Rise up and spread out all of your
energy over me
Your energy over me

MASTER PLAN

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Taylor, J. Rubin)

I haven’t figured out that master plan
It can be so hard just to be a man
My father left me when I was young
I got twenty years but I wasn’t done

Someday I’ll rejoice
when I get to hear your loving voice
Someday we will smile
and I’ll hold you for a while

I haven’t figured out that master plan
We say goodbye to every mom and dad
We get to love em’ up, and then we lay ‘em down
Only get so many days with them around

Someday I’ll rejoice
when I get to hear your loving voice,
Someday we will smile
‘cause I know, I know
I’m gonna hold you for a while

I just want you to know
that I don’t want you to go
And I know we’ll meet again
when we figure out
that master plan

So when it’s my time to go, my turn in line
know I had a great life and I’m doing fine
When you feel a warm breeze
on a summer’s day
That’s me telling you that I’m ok

Someday I’ll rejoice
when I get to hear your loving voice
Someday we will smile
‘cause I know, I know
I’m gonna hold you for a while

I just want you to know
that I don’t want you to go
And I know we’ll meet again
when we figure out
that master plan

I just want you to know
It pains me to see you go
And I know we’ll smile again
when we figure out
that master plan

SET OUT NORTH

(Lyrics & Music: J. Taylor)

Set out north on a ship
that’s no longer on steam
but authority claims
it’s the past, but it’s not

Though we spent days away
and my nerves are less shattered
Takes a shot to the edge
with a hammer and scatters

The view and a truck stop keeps me going
You keep my eyes open
as we motor past the miles
Small signs they mark the road
for the rescues that we hope
never need to happen
So we listen to a show on the radio

I’ll come along with you
We’ll go so far but it’s never enough

So this time we’ll set our course
This time we’ll sell our clothes
Boat out by the big beyond
but we end up right at home

You struggle to keep company
as your eyelids tug with the luxury
of a shotgun seat but you fall asleep
‘cause you trust in me that you’ll wake

with a view of a moonlit sea
far, far from everything
that goes over and over
again and again on repeat
so we sail away and we’ll both break free

I’ll come along with you
We’ll go so far but it’s never enough

So this time we’ll set our course
This time we’ll sell our clothes
Boat out by the big beyond
but we end up right at home

Where all the storms are pushed out to the sea…

AIRPORT

(Lyrics & Music: B. Ziegler)

See you off at the airport
I don’t want to say goodbye
But it’s your time now my son
it’s your time to fly

I’ll see you off at the airport
so take this note with you
And I’ll be waiting here my son
and I’ll be watching from below

Go fly my child
Go start your life
Get lost in love
Get found in time
Go fly my child
Go find your way
Just let me say
I’m your biggest fan

See you off at the airport
and I’ll hold back the tears
And I’ll be right here at home
trying to roll back the years
And I’ll smile back on all we’ve done
and what is yet to come
And if I’m not around to hear you
I will meet you, I will meet you in the sun

Go fly my child
go start your life
Get lost in love
Get found in time
Go fly my child
Go find your way
Just let me say
I’m your biggest fan…

DOWN THE ROAD

(Lyrics: B. Ziegler / Music: J. Rubin, C. Rubin)

Pick me up, drag me down
let me go somewhere I don’t want to be found
‘cause as we spin around the sun
getting faster every time that we go around

Fill our cups, drink it up
‘cause we just don’t know what tomorrow brings
But since we’re here, make it clear
gonna live it up the best while we still can

I need a moment to breathe
I need a moment to feel
I need a moment to love all the people in my life
and I’ll see you down the road

They say the best things in life
are the things that money just can’t buy
I say the best things in life
are the memories that make you look back and smile

And if we only get so many moments
to share with the ones we love
I say again, all my friends
you’re the ones that I treasure and you shine above

I need a moment to breathe
I need a moment to feel
I need a moment to love all the people in my life
and I’ll see you down the road

Let the people in your life in
Let ‘em know you are surviving
And when we all just let the vibe in
when we’re feeling like we’re meant to
I hope it all comes back to you

Fill our cups, drink it up
‘cause we just don’t know what tomorrow brings

I need a moment to breathe
I need a moment to feel
I need a moment to scream
I need a moment to dream
I need a moment to love all the people in my life
You better love all the people in your life
We’re gonna love all the people in our lives
and I’ll see you down the road
See you down the road
Somewhere down the road...
