Radiate (Help Me)
words and music by Andy Tracy
copyright 2022 Sound Sleep Music
I'm lost and alone
And I'm stuck inside my phone
Help me, please help me
I'm awake late at night
And I'll overthink the fight
Help me, please help me
I could shine like the sun
Bringing joy to everyone
Help me, please help me
We can sit here and cry
Or just spread our wings and fly
Help me, please help me
My voice cries out in the wilderness
But there's no one there to hear
I try to travel quietly
And not disturb the deer
My heart cries out for some peace and love
But the feedback loop is booming
How can I radiate everything I am
When the noise is so consuming?
I could lie here in bed
Dreaming that it's in my head
Help me, please help me
I want to venture outside
And let the birds be me guide
Help me, please help me
We could rise before the dawn
And have a party all day long
Help me, please help me
And when there is a task
All you've got to do is ask
Help me, please help me
My voice cries out in the wilderness
But there's no one there to hear
I try to travel quietly
And not disturb the deer
My heart cries out for some peace and love
But the feedback loop is booming
How can I radiate everything I am
When the noise is so consuming?

Good Time
words and music by Andy Tracy
copyright 2022 Sound Sleep Music
(Chorus)
We're gonna have a good time
We're gonna have a good time
Just spending our days feeling fine
I wanna have you with me
Just come and go with me
'Cause I've got adventures in my mind
(Verses)
Sometimes a manic episode
Is all that I really need
Just you and me and down the road
It's up to you, but I'll take the lead
On a trail or at a show
I can have you close to me
Sometimes trouble even though
You're what means the most to me
Sometimes when I'm all alone
I can see the worst in me
When I call you on the phone
You will be there first for me
So let's go out and paint the town
I want to give the best to you
Through and through the world around
North South East and West with you
Sometimes when I am with you
I wish that time would never end
But I guess even if it do
Next one's right around the bend
So let's go out into the rain
Let's go out into the sun
None to lose and all to gain
Let's go out and have some fun

Civilians (They Didn't Have A Name)
words and music by Andy Tracy
copyright 2022 Sound Sleep Music
They didn't have a name
They didn't have a face
Maybe they'll put up a plaque
Saying they died in this place
They weren't part of any fight
They're just living their lives
Not a part of any plan
Just trying to survive
Another dead civilian
Oh, what does it all mean?
Could be in the millions
Even one is just obscene
Another dead civilian
Just a face out in the crowd
I can't help but wondering
Why it's all allowed
I don't want to have to leave my home
Knowing that I have 500 more miles to go
I don't want to have to grab only what I can
And try to flee the city or take a stand
I do not have the words
To express all my sorrow
You know it's a war; it could all be
Done by tomorrow
We all have no idea
What this would all feel like
We've never had to live
Right through a real airstrike
To escape to the border
Where uncertainty awaits
Hoping there's something to return to
When the war abates
Have to stay and fight for home
And also for your life
Have to repel the invaders
Whenever they arrive
I don't want to have to leave my home
Knowing that I have 500 more miles to go
I don't want to have to grab only what I can
And try to flee the city or take a stand
I don't want to have to leave my home
Knowing that I have 500 more miles to go
I don't want to have to grab only what I can
And try to flee the city or take a stand
Alongside my neighbors I'll make my stand
