HERE IS THE ROSE // OUTERNATIONAL When the nighttime hits And loneliness sinks in You've been getting into mischief I've been listening I want to hear your thoughts And see it all I can hear the wails through the walls You want to go out tonight You want to know what it's like When the wind's in your lungs And the fire is in those eyes Here is the rose now dance tonight Can you tell me if my eyes can see? If my ears can hear you whispering? Do you stand there in front of me? Here is the rose now dance tonight Here is the rose now dance tonight Here is the rose now dance tonight The violence is all too common The starvation, the kids coffins The night is young The hour is getting late It's a' far along And we just can't wait A moment in time And then it is gone Now wait a second here Something is wrong I see you standing there Here is the rose now dance tonight Can you tell me if my eyes can see? If my ears can hear you whispering? Do you stand there in front of me? Here is the rose now dance tonight Here is the rose now dance tonight Here is the rose now dance tonight You wear your heart On your sleeve You're running fast Down the street Your feet on the ground Why don't you dance with me? Here is the rose now dance tonight Can you tell me if my eyes can see? If my ears can hear you whispering? Do you stand there in front of me? Here is the rose now dance tonight Here is the rose now dance tonight Here is the rose now dance tonight... Here is the rose now dance tonight....

WE OWN THE NIGHT // OUTERNATIONAL Talking about a love I want to feel What it's like when it ain't concealed Just a vision in the middle of my night Your smile, your eyes in the limelight Write me a letter, sing me a song Paint us a picture, it's been too long Can you see it? Can you feel it? Alright We own the night Talking to the kids outside of the school They are on a mission and ready to move You want to tell me but you really don't know You want to kiss me but you look so cold You know me, show me, hold me tight Right here sister, walk with me tonight Can you see it? Can you feel it? Alright We own the night

SHE CRAVES SPRING // OUTERNATIONAL I wander the paths of the city In search of the cries Under the gaze of Lady Liberty With skulls in her eyes Under the gaze of a street-lamp Sally stood and thought Of all the hands that held her And how she fought She craves spring not for herself alone She's humming lullabies and sighs with the streets Whispering to that man with nothing left to eat When will this end? When will we win? Together they stand holding hands in the wind She craves spring not for herself alone Unleash the fury held down for so long This woman knows there's no man above Your brothel's are filled with a slave-master's love All my sisters, ready to fly Breaking tradition holding half the sky

LADIES OF THE NIGHT // OUTERNATIONAL One way or another I’m going to find you I’m trying to Beneath the surface Where the well is deep and wide Maybe they gather under moonlit skies I know I’ve seen them on the other side In that place where no one goes The bottom of the desert, where the scorpions roam Where did they go, are they still alive? Have they been burnt by the fire outside? Everybody’s been looking, wondering who took them You can’t find your "ladies of the night" Free women walking side by side There’s a revival tonight These women and their little girls Messengers from a whole new world The darkness needs a harlot A Mata Hari market, but The sisters untethered Shackles busted, alright Heads held high in the Southwestern sky Spirit strong in flight What was wrong is made right They were never "ladies of the night" Free women walking side by side There’s a revival tonight These women and their little girls Messengers from a whole new world
