["Man in the Mirror" by Marina City]
- Ryan Argast: Off your feet!
[upbeat rock music]
Hands up, hands up!
? It was so hard to see ?
? But I guess you're never happy, what ?
? Lost in your misery in your head ?
? You never told me ?
? Sticks and stones may break my bones ?
? But the words left scars that I hold ?
? Stepped on cracks to break my back ?
You better jump and touch the clouds!
Y'all ready?!
? You said the one that I should fear ?
? Ahh ah ah ah ?
? Was the man in the mirror, what ?
? Man in the mirror ?
? Monsters are for real ?
? Ahh ah ah ah ?
? Was the man in the mirror, what ?
? It was always you ?
? Always you, every time ?
? You said the one that I should fear ?
? Ahh ah ah ah ?
? Was the man in the mirror, hey ?
? Man in the mirror ?
? Asked your friends honestly ?
? But they said you're always happy ?
? That you were with me ?
? You were with the man of your dreams ?
? I gave you all that I could give ?
? But it's not enough for you, no, no ?
? Took all that I had ?
? Then you just ?
Y'all ready?
Get off your feet!
? You said the one that I should fear ?
? Ahh ah ah ah ?
? Was the man in the mirror, sing ?
? Man in the mirror ?
? Monsters are for real ?
? Ahh ah ah ah ?
? Was the man in the mirror, what ?
? Man in the mirror ?
? It was always you ?
? Always you, every time ?
? You said the one that I should fear ?
? Ahh ah ah ah ?
? Was the man in the mirror ?
Turn up on the two.

Hands up, hands up!

[electric guitar solo]
[vocalizing]
Yeah!
? Ohh ohh ?
Man in the mirror!
[audience applauding and cheering]
We've been a band for a long period of time.
For a long, long time.
We used to be a band that had six people in the band.
Our best friends, they left.
We grew up, we became fathers,
became house-owners, we became married.
And so much life has happened.
I literally grew up with these two guys
that you see right here.
[audience applauding and cheering]
Actually, I don't know whether-- that's Todor.
Eric is back there hiding, he's scared.
No, he's fine.
[electric guitar music]
I just want to tell you
that this show right here that we're having
is gonna be one that we're gonna remember
for the rest of our lives,
and I seriously thank you so much for that.
[audience applauding and cheering]
So we want to play a song stripped down
and do it like we did back in the garage,
back when we first started this band.
Just a guitar, piano, vocals, and you guys.
We don't have a record label.
We don't have a manager, we don't have a booking agent.
We don't have a publicist.
We do all this #### ourselves.
It's us and you, that's it. [audience cheering]
So, for this song, it's just us and you.
["Better Weather" by Marina City]
[gentle electric guitar music]
? I found the deepest corners of my mind ?
? Where you used to roam ?
? A projection plays at night ?
? When we buried the rest of our hope ?
? Now you found somebody else ?
? While I'm looking for myself ?
? When you kiss him, do you ever ?
? Think of how my lips felt? ?
? I need some better weather ?
? 'Cause all these clouds are looking like you ?
? Something a little stronger ?
? So I can cure this headache of you ?
? And I'm trying to find my way out of our mess ?
? I need some better weather ?
? 'Cause all these clouds are looking like you ?
? Like you, like you ?
? The clouds look like you ?
If you have a phone, let me see that light.
Put that light up, let's make something special right here.
? These days when I call ?
? I know you just let your phone ring ?
? Your voicemail sounds happy ?
? Like you're surprised to hear from me ?
? Now I'm fogging up windows ?
? And tracing both of our names ?
? When you hold his hands ?
? Did mine ever feel the same? ?
? Ohh ohh ?
? I need some better weather ?
? 'Cause all these clouds are looking like you ?
? Something a little stronger ?
? So I can cure this headache of you ?
? And I'm trying to find my way out of our mess ?
? Need some better weather ?
? 'Cause all these clouds are looking like you ?
? Like you, like you ?
? I fell to the floor ?
? On my knees ?
? Looking for answers ?
? You found for me ?
? I fell to the floor ?
? On my knees ?
? Looking for answers ?
? You found for me ?
? Need some better weather ?
? 'Cause all these clouds are looking like you ?
? Something a little stronger ?
? So I can cure this headache of you ?
? And I'm trying to find ?
? My way out of our mess ?
? Ohh ohh ?
? I need some better weather ?
? 'Cause all these clouds are looking like you ?
? Like you, like you ?
? Clouds look like you ?
[audience applauding and cheering]
Thank you so much, thank you.
["Addicted" by Marina City]
[gritty electric guitar music]
? Heaven's not right ?
? I feel good, but I am not fine ?
? Don't know, don't know ?
? Don't know if I'll make it out alive ?
? That's a worry ?
? For another ?
? Another time ?
? So am I getting better? ?
? Or is it finally working? ?
? I feel as light as a feather ?
? But I keep packing on the pounds ?
? Am I alive? ?
? That's a worry for another time ?
[audience cheering]
? I'm addicted to all our tragedies ?
? My heart is black and blue ?
? From what you do to me ?
? But I want you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ?
? Addicted to tragedies ?
? I'm so high ? ? I'm so high ?
? With just the thought of you ?
? And I lied ? ? I lied ?
? I can't live without you, girl ?
? I'm not fine ?
? That's a worry for another time ?
Hey, Appleton, how low can you go?
How low can you go?
? Am I getting better? ?
? Or is it finally working? ?
? I feel as light as a feather ?
? But I keep packing on the pounds ?
? Am I alive? ?
? That's a worry for another time ?
Let me see you jump!

? But I want you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ?
? Addicted to tragedies ?
[audience applauding and cheering]
[electric guitar solo]
? Say I, I, I, I, I know ?
? You'll be the death of me ?
? I ?

? My heart is black and blue ?
? From what you do to me ?
? But I want you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ?
? But I want you ?
? Whoo, ooh ?
? I'm addicted to all our tragedies ?
? My heart is black and blue ?
? From what you do to me ?

["Runaways" by Marina City]
[hard rock music]
Ladies and gentlemen, this is my favorite song.
I would appreciate if you danced with us.
? Mama's always coked ?
? And her daddy's always broke ?
? But he does his best with his ex ?
? The pills don't work no more ?
? It's something to do when bored ?
? And she don't know where her shape fits in ?
? She says blondes don't have all of the fun ?
? Freedom is a loaded gun ?
? All my friends will go to hell ?
? Save yourself, don't need your help ?
? Everybody's doing it ?
? So we just gotta go with it ?
? Follow me if you think you can ?
Sing this if you know it.
? If you really love me, then you just gotta trust me ?

? Not living without ya ?
? If you really love me, then you just gotta trust me ?
? 'Cause we won't stop on running ?

? His mother never leaves him ?
? His father never sees him ?
? And he wonders if he can be a man ?
? He's a shadow of his brother ?
? Each nail's a different color, ow ?
? If this is living, he don't want it ?
? He says liars have all of the fun ?
? The Internet is a loaded gun ?
? All my friends don't know my name ?
? Every feeling feels the same ?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is it.
I know I can speak for my best friends back here,
my brothers back here.
This is one of the coolest shows,
if not the coolest show we've ever played.
Thank you so much.
[audience applauding and cheering]
Like I mentioned before, we don't have a record label,
we don't have a booking agent, we don't have a manager.
We don't have any of that.
It's just us and you.
And it literally means the absolute world.
You don't understand.
The absolute world that this many people here
came to see a band called Marina City.
Just a local band from Chicago, thank you.

["Tanzanite" by Marina City]
? There's blood in my mouth ?
? And my teeth are kicked in, yeah ?
[hard rock music]
? Now I'm all strung out ?
? I am losing my grip ?
? I've walked on thin ice ?
? But I'm better off swimming ?
? Maybe you wouldn't lie ?
Hands up!
? That this is what you wanted, say ?
? Feels like it's been forever ?
? Since stars in your eyes ?
? We did it for each other ?
? But I sacrificed ?
? The world blew out your glimmer ?
? Hidden gems don't shine ?
? Diamonds build under pressure ?
? We were tanzanite ?
? Where are your manners? ?
? And where's your loyalty? ?
? Your words are daggers ?
? But apathy cut me ?
? Never wanted to fight ?
? But I should have said something ?
Hands up!
? Maybe you wouldn't lie, what ?
? That this is what you wanted ?
? Feels like it's been forever ?
? Since stars in your eyes ?
? We did it for each other ?
? But I sacrificed ?
? The world blew out your glimmer ?
? Hidden gems don't shine ?
? Diamonds build under pressure ?
? We were tanzanite ?
? Feels like it's been forever ?

We are Marina City and we'll be Marina City again.
Thank you so much.
