Sitting on the sun
Pretending there is no light
Who's got the matches
This is fun, I'm playing dumb
How soon are we gonna jump...

Thin Air
Reached mountain top, snow falling,

getting colder, lost my rope,

nowhere to go, but down,

running out of food, no

matches left, thin air

doing me in.

It is all in my passion

My flowing blue dress with my 3inch high heels, may not be your fashion
Don't hate on my love and passion...
