Fetishize the foundin’
Blind to what was done
Fetishize them founders
Complicit every one
How to love this foundin’
How to love what’s mine
How to love a story
So much beatin’ down my line
How to love a story
So much beatin’ down my line
So Far Gone
So low when we’d begun
So Far Gone
Still low ‘n’ almost done
Fetishize the progress
Blind to what need’s done
Fetishize the progress
Who is served and what is won
How to love this foundin’
How to love what’s mine
How to love a story
So much beatin’ down my line
How to love a story
So much beatin’ down my line
So Far Gone
So low when we’d begun
So Far Gone
Still low ‘n’ almost done
So Far Gone
So low when we’d begun
So Far Gone
Still low ‘n’ almost done
Ooh hoo oh
Ooh hoo oh
Ahh
Fetishize the greatness
Distortin’ all’s been done
Fetishize the greatness
Who is served and what is won
How to love this foundin’
How to love what’s mine
How to love a story
So much beatin’ down my line
How to love a story
So much beatin’ down my line
So Far Gone
So low when we’d begun
So Far Gone
Still low ‘n’ almost done
So Far Gone
So low when we’d begun
So Far Gone
Still low ‘n’ almost done
Still low ‘n’ almost done

Above the Highest of Spires
(©2020 Anders/O’Bitz)
Without we’ll make a new start
Too many give up
Their hearts and souls, yeah
Their give up keeps us apart
Their give up keeps us so far down, far down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
We’ve got to raise this up higher
Above the highest of spires
Above the level of their right and wrong
Raise it higher
So much higher
Without we’ll find a new goal
A new way lead us
With freed hearts and souls, yeah
This new love makes us more whole
It brings us up from so far down, far down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
We’ve got to raise this up higher
Above the highest of spires
Above the level of their right and wrong
Raise it higher
So much higher
With a truer love
We’ll stay up higher, so
No more keepin’ us down
A whole new love
As a whole, we’re higher
A whole new love
Whole new love
Beaten down over the ages
Never gettin’ what we need
It’s time we’re gettin’ so much
Higher and higher
We’ve got to raise this up higher
Above the highest of spires
Above the level of their right and wrong
Raise it higher
So much higher
We’ve got to raise this up higher
Above the highest of spires
Above the level of their right and wrong
Raise it higher
So much higher
Above the highest of spires

Belief
That makes
A mess
High stakes
These lies
Retire
All whys and they
Backfire
Fantasyland
Debts to pay
Haunted too long
Our ghostly ways
We can’t face
What’s
Wrong
Recede
Behind
Sleazy
Empire
These lies
Retire
All whys and they
Backfire
Fantasyland
Debts to pay
Haunted too long
Our ghostly ways
We can’t face
What’s
Wrong
Ooh, Ooh
Fantasyland
Debts to pay
Haunted too long
Our ghostly ways
We can’t face
What’s
Wrong

Down to See
(Anders, O’Bitz 2017)
How to love and share a life
Down for low but way up high
Take me down, down to see
Won’t you take me for this ride
Can we go both low and high
Take me down, down to see
Down to see an old side of me
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see an older side
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see
Have to love to spare our lives
Can we love both low and high
Take me down, down to see
Down to see an old side of me
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see an older side
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see
Hold on to me
Old me
Hold on to see
An old side of me
Hold on so I can see
An older me
Older me
Hold all of me
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see an older side
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see an older side
High, high
Take me down to see
I’m down to see

Dirty Sun
(Anders, O’Bitz 2022)
Here it comes
Call it “sun”
Is night done
Will day come
Can’t see the sun
The sun oh
Where did it go
And where can we run
To see the sun
Brown glow comes
Dirty “sun”
Night’s not done
Day won’t come
Can’t see the sun
The sun oh
Where did it go
And where can we run
To see the sun
Break
The sun oh
Where did it go
And where can we run
The sun oh
Where did it go
And where can we run
To see the sun
