redlemon: Fly [The End of Wars].

It is the end of the world. In this post-apocalyptic wasteland, all is destroyed and people wander aimlessly, without any direction, with rags for clothes, muttering curses and crying out laments. All is red and black-colored, with fire and smoke coming from all around the landscape, half-burned buildings, mounds of trash, broken streets. Redlemon wanders out from an almost demolished house and stumbles across a beautiful, remarkably clean and untouched blonde girl wearing a white flowing dress.

1. Make You More. Redlemon tells Sweet Tart how he wants her more than anyone else.

2. Always Love The End of War. Redlemon questions war and says love continues to exist despite overwhelming violence.

3. Truly Patchen's Song. Redlemon sees what has happened to the world. Despite this, he and Sweet Tart profess their love for each other, say they are both idealists, but are also very possessive and have addictive personalities.

4. No Ordinary Girl. Redlemon's mother is dying and he sings of and to her.

5. Better Than This. Redlemon sees a picture of two people holding hands jumping off a building. He compares it to his own life of struggle but also to an unshakeable commitment to love.

6. Fly. Redlemon describes how he has doubts about loving anyone given what has happened to the world.

7. Mysterious. Redlemon describes what he has learned about Sweet Tart.

8. (Germantown) Avenue. Redlemon sings of his own bad tendencies and unfulfilled promises.

9. Brave Parade. Redlemon describes the rules men are governed by and his own difficulties growing up.

10. Say Something That's True. Redlemon is betrayed by people he describes as being only loosely acquainted with the truth.

11. The Air That I Breathe. Redlemon sings to Sweet Tart and tells her he could literally not live without her.

12. Waiting for the Rain. Redlemon's mother passes away and he describes how his mother was always waiting for the sky to fall.

13. Imagine That. Redlemon describes how, when the world was whole, people looked the other way when an obviously terribly ill homeless person begged for food and then starved to death. [This song is about the real-world case of Chester Lee Miller and dedicated to his memory].

14. One More Dance Redlemon tells Sweet Tart how, in the face of catastrophe, there is still nobility in the human spirit and asks for one last dance. They dance as the world finally blows apart.
