I Love You 04:20
lyrics

Toss and turn and clock and floor Pavement, shut the door - havin' less and wantin' more Stop and go and give and take, Shutin' and bend and break Don't speak, just shake, shake, shake, shake So come on now, you've got to (got to) know by now Come on now, your silence is a sound and I'm readin' ya, needin' ya to be a little louder This ain't no game I'm gonna play with ya girl because I love ya (love ya) We've intertwined; we're one on one world war because I need ya, breathe ya I love you Hold on, less speed, less want, more need, Have and hold and starve and feed Breathe and blink and sweat and skin, Grow and change and lose and win, let me in

These games we play, they go on for days I need no reasons to keep on feelin' this way (oh) Don't have to tell me that you feel the same, Just rock me good girl, let the beat drop where it may, 'cause This shit don't last forever, Come on let's make it better, We gotta whole lot of work to do tonight I've got ya where I want ya, Can't just keep spyin' on ya You know I want ya on top, don't stop, tonight! The way you swing those hips, I wanna bite your lips, I'll make ya pop so let's drop this beat tonight! You got me goin' I can't even explain, I just can't seem to get ya up off my brain, There ain't no reason not to cut to the chase, So rock me good, boy, can you keep up the pace I hear ya baby and I'm ready to go, I've had enough of takin' it slow So put it on me 'cause I'm ready to know, I'll make ya (uh) girl, until ya want some more I'm talkin' don't stop, The way you're movin's got me goin' insane You know you got it I can be what ya need, So come home with me Just let me drop this, ooh Drop this Forever, better, let's drop this beat tonight

Pull Me Under 03:24
lyrics

Get out of my skin boy, Why’d I let you in boy, I’m outta control Caught up in your game, I guess I’m only to blame That you’ve ignited my soul ‘cause you’re like fire You burn me down to the ground You’re like a ghost baby, I see when you’re not around Every little time I think it’s safe to come out, You pull me under, And it’s makin’ me shout! I’m not gonna pretend, I really wish it would end, But that’s easier said than done ‘cause you cut like a knife You’ve taken over my life, I hope your happy you won Now I’m locked in a cage I thought this all was a stage But you got me so good I’m so out of my mind, Wish I could go back in time, Now that I’ve understood Get out from under my skin, I never should have let you in, I’m gonna shake sh-shake ya, When I find myself again 'cause you’re like fire, Like a ghost You pull me under, I burn, burn, burn (when you’re not around), Every little time, You’re like fire, yeah, yeah, yeah

Your baby girl has got the Glitch Addiction, For the pain I'd get some Glitch Addiction Shortie's movin' with a glitch, glitch, pop and lock, yea Makin' rounds up in the club, girl, where ya from? One more round but this night has just begun, The lights go out the music drops (yes, it's very very bad)

You've got me wastin' all my time and energy, I hesitated now I've lost control This club is hazy but flarin' up from the dance floor, ya crave the taste of me so one more shot and down we go What goes up must come down, What goes up must come down, (let the fever take over) You nail me down like a fever livin' deep in the ground I'm about as loko as any boy you've ever known girl, I ride that liquid buzz like Tony Hawk on EX! Maybe my heart's just thumpin' but two of you is not enough, We gotta up the dose, so hold me close, (SUM DOS E DOS) Let the fever take over back to my bed and tell me 'bout nasty thoughts the loko put in yo head

Forever, Young Rachel (feat. David Saulesco) 04:22
lyrics

Far off the edge of time and space eternal I see those days, long to see your face Your absent smile, scorched in frozen flame yet I'll still call out your name Forever young Rachel, the sun shall set before you And the stars will take this chance to forever keep your hand You'll awake in the flame of our embrace Step in the light and bathe in all you've wanted I'll wait for you, let's start this time anew Your absent smile, scorched in frozen flame Yet I'll still call out your name I never knew, I harbored a love, as deep as this love that burns for you What good is this life, if it can't be spent the way that I'd like, with you as my wife The moon may be pale and bleak but my feelings for you will never ever grow weak

Your Name (feat. Martha Mingle) 03:49

Footprints out the backdoor - the snow gives you away, Where'd you go I'd like to know I'm not the only one awake. And you, oh your name is a place, is a place, And you, oh your name is a place to me. Your silence casts a shadow, the void locks it away, Where'd you go I'd like to know I'm not the only one awake. And you, oh your name is a place, is a place, And you, oh your name is a place to me. I'm gonna pack you away, you're gettin' further everyday but I won't call out your name, I wanna thank you, you've made me mad enough, sad enough to put you in your rightful place. Your silence casts a shadow, the void locks it away, Where'd you go I'd like to know I'm not the only one awake. You, oh your name is a place, is a place, And you, oh your name is a place to m

Save me, Meat My name is Dr. Fetus, PhD I see you lack some skin, boy, which is quite fine by me Your girl is quite fair, oh, she's an anomaly So the bandages come off, baby, what cha' hiding Save me, Meat Boy, you're the one that I need, Dr. Fetus, he can't beat us, but he's makin' ya bleed! So won't you save me, boy, I know you got what it takes, It's the hour, use your power and come help save the day! I will save you, Bandage Girl You won't have to fear no more! Take my hand and you will see Behold the Power of the Meat! I lined the walls with my robotic saws Don't you wish you had some fingers with which left to crawl Now I know what you're thinking, "For a fetus, he's quite smart" Well, when your blood paints these walls, I'll call it work of art! Save me, boy, I know you got what it takes, It's the hour, use your power and come help save the day! Take my hand and you will see Behold the Power of the Meat!

about

"CHILDREN OF THE SUMMER" is the direct result of two years of collaboration between Melinda Hershey and Josh Whelchel (www.jwmusic.org). Much of the music on this album is inspired by video game music, and therefore we like to consider this vgm-inspired pop.
