I won’t be cast in shadow because I live for the limelight
Draped in pink to make the boys think about the violence they incite
ALL WE WANT IS -
Born of the sea as Venus, I reached up to the sky
An angel fallen far from grace, denied the right to fly
The future is bright, the future is femme
Don’t cast me aside, the system is bent
The dawn of man has come to an end
The future is mine, The future is FEMME!
Trapped in a western fever dream, a poor man’s pantomime
Behind me was an iron fist that kept us all in line
But it’s a lie, it’s a lie, it’s a lie
Doing time for no crime
And I just wanna be free, I just wanna be me!
The future is bright, the future is femme
Don’t cast me aside, the system is bent
The dawn of man has come to an end
The future is mine, the future is FEMME!
I ate the apple in Eden - I have the knowledge you dream of
And if you wanna be free then just follow me through the feeling
I ate the apple in Eden - I have the knowledge you dream of
And if you wanna be free then just follow me to the end
The future is bright, the future is femme
Don’t cast me aside, the system is bent
The dawn of man has come to an end
The future is mine, the future is FEMME!
ALL WE WANT IS FEMME!
ALL WE WANT IS FEMME!
ALL WE WANT IS FEMME!
ALL WE WANT IS FEMME!

Rat Race

Not good enough for the radio
Not man enough for your rock and roll show
Not cool enough to be who you know
But who you know knows me...
Wanna kick the freak out of your clique
Can’t escape it on my Twitter feed
I’m living life inside a dream where being unique is a commodity
I won’t be insecure about your lack of taste
I’m gonna work hard, beat you at your own game
It’s a fools path, I don’t have time to waste
Climbing to the top in a rat race
I’m running in a competition
Fighting tooth and nail for attention
It’s a rat race, it’s a rat race
Climbing to the top in a mother fucking rat race
Want me to dress up in a t-shirt and jeans
Pick up a guitar and sing about a lady
Living life inside a closet isn’t living the dream
Working with toxic men just don’t appeal to me
I won’t be insecure about your lack of taste
I’m gonna work hard, beat you at your own game
It’s a fools path, I don’t have time to waste
Climbing to the top in a rat race
I’m running in a competition
Fighting tooth and nail for attention
It’s a rat race, it’s a rat race
Climbing to the top in a mother fucking rat race
Let it go, it's time to breathe
I won't be what you want me to be
You only see what I want you to see
I'm the antidote that you need

I’m the life of the party
The opposite thing to the nuclear wife
Bleach blonde, living the dream
Turning up at the scene of the crime – it’s time!
I’ve been dancing like a maniac
I’ve been drinking all night – there’s no going back
Am I looking for a fight or the love of my life
Give me more sex, drugs & violence
More!
(Give me) Give me more
Give me more (more!)
(Give me) Give me more
Sex, drugs & violence
I’m that twink on the TV
Shove it in my face so I learn my place
Rubber sleaze crawling with disease
To assimilate don’t equate to safe
I’ve been dancing like a maniac
I’ve been drinking all night – there’s no going back
Am I looking for a fight or the love of my life?
Give me more sex, drugs & violence
More!
(Give me) Give me more
Give me more (more!)
(Give me) Give me more
Sex, drugs & violence
Why live in fear of the unknown?
Always waiting at home with the Devil calling me on my telephone
Tonight I’ll bathe in starlight and I’m living my life
I’m not terrified of moral paradise
I’ve been dancing like a maniac
I’ve been drinking all night – there’s no going back
Am I looking for a fight or the love of my life?
Give me more sex, drugs & violence
More!
(Give me) Give me more
Give me more (more!)
(Give me) Give me more
Sex, drugs & violence
More!
(Give me) Give me more
Give me more (more!)
(Give me) Give me more
Sex, drugs & violence

I've spent so long in darkness
My mind's already far away from this
Been waiting for that pistol for a long long time
I'm ready to go
Ready to throw myself at the night
Do it wrong or right
I'm ready to break
Get me on that stage
Let's raise some hell tonight
Champagne apocalypse
Set the world on fire, glass to your lips
Champagne apocalypse
Set the world on fire, glass to your lips
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
Since the dawn of time there's been an ego machine
A wax and wane, a give and take that threatens to wipe the slate clean
And when the night falls I hear it calling to me
And as we dance closer to our doom we're closer to being free...
I'm ready to go
Ready to throw myself at the night
Do it wrong or right
I'm ready to break
Get me on that stage
Let's raise some hell tonight
Champagne apocalypse
Set the world on fire, glass to your lips
Champagne apocalypse
Set the world on fire, glass to your lips
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
Champagne apocalypse
Set the world on fire, glass to your lips
Champagne apocalypse
Set the world on fire, glass to your lips
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls
I wanna live in a champagne world
Champagne boys and champagne girls

We were wrong
The clock was always counting down faster than we could see
When I woke to find you’d left me behind
And I’d spent years wilfully blind
Lighting up the night sky like a thousand stars alight
And there’s nowhere for me to hide
Will I survive til sunrise?
There are bombs falling on Eden
Pray to whichever god you believe in
Does it bring you hope?
Where do we go when there’s nowhere to call home?
And I cry
And I cry
And I cry
And I cry
There are bombs falling on Eden
Pray to whichever god you believe in
Does it bring you hope?
Where do we go when there’s nowhere to call home?
There are bombs falling on Eden
Watching our lives go up in smoke
There’s a fire that burns inside all of us
And the world’s about to choke

Dress me up in my fineries
Lavish silk and my rosary
The brightest star can’t compare to me
Will you miss me when I’m gone?
Forget about all the sin around me
I’m at peace and you should be
Will you remember me when I’m gone?
I hope they say that bitch was an icon
Every day I’m fading away
Feeling like I’ve got nothing to say
How do I step out of the way of all the shit that’s going on?
(What's wrong?)
Life has lost all la magie
Feeling like it’s the end for me
When all I wanted was cest la vie
And to be iconique...
ICONIC.
Light the pyre and be done with me
I wanna disappear into the ether and never return
So watch me burn
Every day I’m fading away
Feeling like I’ve got nothing to say
How do I step out of the way of all the shit that’s going on?
(What's wrong?)
Life has lost all la magie
Feeling like it’s the end for me
When all I wanted was cest la vie
And to be iconique...
ICONIC.
Looking from the outside in, time is ticking away
And I’ve lived my life in the shadow of others
Always reaching for the light and I might never recover
Every day I’m fading away
Feeling like I’ve got nothing to say
How do I step out of the way of all the shit that’s going on?
(What's wrong?)
Life has lost all la magie
Feeling like it’s the end for me
When all I wanted was cest la vie,
And to be iconique...
ICONIC.

I’ve murdered myself a thousand times
Death by the violence of my mind
Reinvention of self is not a crime
Reborn from the ashes, I rise
I am a goddess (kiss me)
I am your god (kiss me hard)
I know you want it
Give me all that you’ve got
Will you be my cosmic saviour?
Midnight lovers, bad behaviour
I don’t need a hero baby
I just need you tonight
Bring me back to life
They say it’s a dangerous path
But I know me better than that
I burn bright in the palm of your hand
Hot to touch like the desert sand
I am a goddess (kiss me)
I am your god (kiss me hard)
I know you want it
Give me all that you’ve got
Will you be my cosmic saviour?
Midnight lovers, bad behaviour
I don’t need a hero baby
I just need you tonight
Bring me back to life
Alone in the garden late at night,
I know that the traitors will soon arrive,
But then the heavens open up,
Take your spear in my hand wielding all of your love
I am your goddess (tell me)
I am your god (tell me now)
I know you want it
Give me all that you got
Will you be my cosmic saviour?
Midnight lovers, bad behaviour
I don’t need a hero baby
I just need you tonight
Bring me back to life
All the time I wasted at war inside my head
When all I needed was to find some peace inside your bed
I looked into the sky, reflected in your eyes
A shooting star tore through the night and I was blind…
Will you be my cosmic saviour?
Midnight lovers, bad behaviour
I don’t need a hero baby
I just need you tonight
Bring me back to life

I left my heart in a hotel room and left my mind in the taxi
I was hoping some day soon you’d come back to find me
All the times I cried and wish that I had died would be undone
There'd be no harm if I was in your arms
I’ve been losing my mind every Saturday night
I’ve been losing the fight, it just ain’t right
My addiction is you but this love isn’t true
How do I move on when I’m feeling this blue?
No more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
No more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
You and I once last time runs through my mind
But no more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
I left my heart in a hotel room and my mind in Tokyo
It's such an old familiar tune that should have ended long ago
All the times I cried and wish that I had died would be undone
There'd be no harm if I was in your arms
No more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
No more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
I wanted love and I wanted affection
But we were moving in different directions
My old soul was always bleeding
And now I'm on the path to healing
All the times I cried and wish that I had died would be undone
There'd be no harm if I was in your arms
No more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
No more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive
You and I once last time runs through my mind
But no more heartache
I'm trying to feel alive

Did you think I wouldn't notice?
When you spied me across the room
There wasn't anyone else quite like me in here to lead you to your doom
But I'm not dumb
I know there's somebody else waiting for you to come home
And right now you're both alone
And I know you're depressed
But I can't be your outlet
You need to find a way to kick the habit
We all just wanna see you happy
It's you, it's me and all of us together we're a community (a community)
In the darkness of life, we'll be your guiding light (community, community)
We've drank too much and you grab me
Then you tell me that you love me
And then you cry, you've had your heart broken one too many times
And there's no doubt that you don't have love for me - I love you too,
But we are family
And I know you're depressed
But I can't be your outlet
You need to find a way to kick the habit
We all just wanna see you happy
It's you, it's me and all of us together we're a community (a community)
In the darkness of life, we'll be your guiding light (community, community)

Beth yw’r peth sy’n brifo'r mwyaf?
Fy ffôn yn canu'r gan o'r gaeaf,
Dych chi wedi mynd i’r ochr arall,
I’r dir o dristwch, mae’r amser yn araf
Gad i fi fynd yn ol yn fy nghof,
I amser mwy hapus, eistedd wrth y môr,
Chi’n dal yn fy llaw ac edrych i’r awyr,
A dyma yr amser dwi’n teimlo'n mwy hapus
Nid marwolaeth yw’r diwedd
Mae cariad yn byw am byth
Nid marwolaeth yw’r diwedd
Mae cariad yn byw am byth
am byth...am byth..am byth...
Nid marwolaeth yw’r diwedd
Mae cariad yn byw am byth
Nid marwolaeth yw’r diwedd
Mae cariad yn byw am byth
am byth...am byth..am byth...

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.

Sorry I Haven't Called
by Vagabon

One of her most upbeat projects but carries the saddest undertones. Her standout sound on each album is incredibly varied. I loved her take on more African styles music and dance beats.

How do you pick one favorite track for this album? It is near perfection, and so varied from track to track. My favorite track changes every time I listen to it depending on my mood, the time of day, or the weather. That said, the combination of What I Want and Runner’s High can make literally any day better.
