1. THE LAST HORIZON

2. THESE ARE THE CHANGES

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

"Like it or not we live in times of danger and uncertainty
that is the way he lived
That is what he leaves us
My brother need not to be idolised
Or enlarged in death beyond what he was in life
Be remembered simply as a good and decent man
Who saw wrong and tried to right it
Saw suffering and tried to heal it
Saw war and tried to stop it"

"We must recognise that ending the war
Is only the first step towards building the peace
All parties must now see to it that this is a peace that lasts"

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

"I have asked for this radio and television time tonight
For the purpose of announcing that we today have concluded
An agreement to end the war
And bring peace with honour in Vietnam"

Know me, see me, try too understand me
Why, you ask

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes


3. GOODBYE BABY BLUE

She arrived so unexpectedly, with a thousands untold truths
Hidden in behind her smile, you couldn't see through
And all those frown lines on her forehead
Disappeared before my eyes
She told me I'd arrived, just in time

And you could see it in her face
There was more than meets the eye
Something hidden all those years and hidden deep inside

So Goodbye Baby Blue
Goodbye Baby Blue
I spent so long thinking of you

She would lie awake, every night I'd heard her cry
Her mind in slow decay, I guess she couldn't take goodbye

So Goodbye Baby Blue
Goodbye Baby Blue
I spent so long thinking of you

So Goodbye Baby Blue
Goodbye Baby Blue
It' been so long, I'm thinking of you

I'm thinking of you


4. IN THE AIR TONIGHT

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment, all my life, Oh Lord
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh Lord
Well, if you told me you were drowning
I would not lend a hand
I've seen your face before my friend
But I don't know if you know who I am
Well, I was there and I saw what you did
I saw it with my own two eyes
So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been
It's all been a pack of lies
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord
I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Oh Lord
I can feel it in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh Lord
And I've been waiting for this moment all my life, Oh Lord, Oh Lord
Well I remember, I remember don't worry
How could I ever forget, it's the first time, the last time we ever met
But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool me
The hurt doesn't show; but the pain still grows
It's no stranger to you or me
And I can feel it coming in the air tonight

5. CARPET CRAWLERS

There is lambswool under my naked feet
The wool is soft and warm
Gives off some kind of heat
A salamander scurries into flame to be destroyed.
Imaginary creatures are trapped in birth on celluloid
The fleas cling to the golden fleece
Hoping theyll find peace
Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid.
Theres no hiding in my memory
Theres no room to void

The crawlers cover the floor in the red ochre corridor
For my second sight of people, theyve more lifeblood than before
Theyre moving. Theyre moving in time to a heavy wooden door
Where the needles eye is winking, closing in on the poor
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
Weve got to get in to get out
Weve got to get in to get out

Theres only one direction in the faces that I see
Its upward to the ceiling, where the chambers said to be
Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree
They are pulled up by the magnet, believing that theyre free
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
Weve got to get in to get out
Weve got to get in to get out.

Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite
And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright
Through a door a harvest feast is lit by candlight
Its the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
Weve got to get in to get out
Weve got to get in to get out.

The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack
The eager pack lift up their pitchers- the carry all they lack
The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack
And the tickler takes his stickleback
The carpet crawlers heed their callers:
Weve got to get in to get out
Weve got to get in to get out


6. EVER THE REASON
Upon my life
Love of an honest day
The memory of you will slowly fade
Within I hold
Hold it all alone
the fire in my soul begins to burn

Better to be alone
Better be alone
It has to be said
Better to be alone
Better be alone

(I believe in me)
No sense in holding on
No eyes to see clear
Pretend to gain control
Of my life

Better to be alone
Better be alone
It has to be said
Better to be alone
Better be alone
It has to be said

(I believe in me)
No sense in holding on
No eyes to see clear
Pretend to gain control
Of my life


7. STORY

8. FOLLOW YOU FOLLOW ME

Staywith me,
My love I hope you'll always be
Right here by my side if ever I needed you
Oh my love

In your arms,
I feel so safe and so secure
Everyday is such a perfect day to spend
Alone with you

I will follow you will you follow me
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year

With the dark,
I see so very clearly now
All my fears are drifting by me so slowly now
Fading away

I can say
The night is long but you are there
Close at hand I'm better for the smile you give
And while I live

I will follow you will you follow me
All the days and nights that we know will be
I will stay with you will you stay with me
Just one single tear in each passing year there will be

I will follow you ...


9. SARAH

Sarah, sweet Sarah, hold me so close to you
Reach out, no reason needed
You're the one for me, Sarah
You're the one for me
Like a dream come true, so beautiful
I will be with you forever
And if the nights grow cold, I'll be there for you
Please don't make me wait
People surround me, offers of sympathy
I just want to be left alone
Sarah, sweet Sarah, hold me so close to you
Take in all I say, listen carefully
Words I want you to remember
And if the nights grow cold, I'll be there for you
Please don't make me wait
People don't make me wait
People surround me, offers of sympathy
I just want to be left alone
Sarah, I'll miss you
I don't regret all that we shared together
Everything I need, given to me


10.CHANGE

Making the most of it
Turning a light up and
Breaking the back of a
Killing the negative
Finding the faith isn't
As much as I'd like it to be
Follow the path set by
Somebody else's hand
Craving addiction and
Living in fear of me

But I don't think that I can chane
I've been feeling this way for so long now
And this feeling inside still remains
I aint gonna change
Aint gonna change

Bent on destruction I
Have no intention
Black into day into
Dark into Night I go
Blaming myself like I
I'm in control of it
I Turn it around for a
Just for the fun of it
Back to the start I go
I Wish I had learned from you

But I don't think that I can chane
I've been feeling this way for so long now
And this feeling inside still remains
I aint gonna change
Aint gonna change


11. ANOTHER DAY

Some things disappear inside,
Should I try to run away
If I could I would escape you
I won't argue anymore, I have lost the will to be
Hope you don't think I'm ungrateful?

Why, why are you laughing?
Is it something that I said?

I don't like this place at all,
makes me wonder what I'm here for
Someone take this pain away
Dying to see another day
And I don't want to be your friend,
or pretend I can fit into
I'm incensed, I'm blown away
Dying to see another day

Close th curtains lock the door,
left my note upon the stair
In the hope you woudn't read it
Fake emotions in my head,
everything I've seen and read
Can't begin to find the reason

I don't like this place at all,
makes me wonder what I'm here for
Someone take this pain away
Dying to see another day
And I don't want to be your friend,
or pretend I can fit into
I'm incensed, I'm blown away
Dying to see another day


12. MAGIC TRAIN

Life's a magic train hell and back again
Rollercoaster for emotions
You think you've seen it all
You think you know it but you don't know

Life's a magic train that we're all travelling in
Each new day another station
She said she wanted me but it might take a little time
Make take a littel time

Am I supposed to wait around for you?
I'm not opposed to waiting around
I just need to know cause it's nice to be needed
It's getting me down, doing it now

I hold on to love
It's a better place for everyone to be
I alone can't save the world
I'll only save this little part of me
I lie here in my bed
Wishing it would all just blow away

Am I suppodes to play the clown for you?
I'm not that use to fooling around
you say you need me now
Well i'd like to believe it
It's getting me down and doing it now
Getting me down and doing it now
You're going ruin my life


13. SUNSHINE AND BUTTERFLIES

Into a room
old curtains broken chairs
I walk in through
dust on the wooden stairs
stone by the trees
lost days and faded names
pain in my throat
no river stays the same
they won't be here anymore
they won't be here anymore
When the time was new
long days and laughing eyes
walk through the fields
sunshine and butterflies
a fragile place
nothing ever stays for long
a foreign land
take right and make it wrong
they won't be anymore
they won't be anymore
its all lost to the wind
they won't be anymore
into a room
old curtains broken chairs
I walk on through
dust on the wooden stairs
Chorus


14. INSIDE

Swing low
In a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a sone dark night
We take to fight
Snowfall turns to rust

Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man start to fall
Long year in a hostile place
I hear your face start to call

And if you think
That I've been loosing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because
I'm broken minded

Don't keep it ...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside

Strong words
In a ganges sky
I have to lie
Shadows move in Paris
Ring out from a bruised postcard
In the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out of the black slate time
We move in line
But never reach an end

Fall in a long stray town
As the ice comes round
River starts to bend

And if you think
That I've been loosing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because
I'm broken minded

Don't keep it ...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside


15. FOOTSTEPS

You take him places I can't go
You tell him things I don't know
And even when the bonds hold fast
You make me hate the past

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
Suicide...

He leaves you traces I can see
He takes the things you gave to me
And even in the coldest place
I'm just an empty space

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
I'm lost without you
But well I know you go your own way
You never needed me no matter what you say

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
Suicide...

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
Suicide?


16. I CAN'T DANCE
[org. Genesis]

Hot sun beating down
burning my feet just walking around
hot sun making me sweat
gators getting close, hasn't got me yet
I can't dance, I can't talk.
only thing about me is the way I walk
I can't dance, I can't sing
I m just standing here selling
everything.

blue jeans sitting on the beach,
her dogs talking to me, but she's
out of reach.
she's got a body under that shirt,
but all she wants to do is rub my face in the dirt.
'cos, I can't dance, I can't talk,
the only thing about me is the way I walk.
I can't dance, I can't sing,
I'm just standing here selling.
oh and checking everything is in place,
you never know who's looking on.

young punk spilling beer on my shoes,
fat guy's talking to me trying to steal my blues.
thick smoke, see her smiling through;
I never thought so much could happen just shooting pool.
but I'can t dance, I can't talk
the only thing about me is the way that I walk
I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling,
oh and checking everything is in place
you never know who's looking on
a perfect body with a perfect face

no, I can't dance, I can't talk
the only thing about me is the way I walk
no, I can't dance, I can't sing
I'm just standing here selling everything

no, I can't walk
no, I can't dance
no, I can't dance
no, I said I can't sing


17. GYPSY

God is my witness I can feel you
There! Before my very eyes, a vision to me
Don't put out this fire
It's burning for me, burning for you
Stand within the sunlight, press against me
Take me back to other times, different days
Love I do surrender, it belongs to
Belongs to me, belongs to me
Lay down on me, naked gypsy
Watching you bathe in water
False childhood lies, fear in your eyes
Give me a son and daughter
There is nothing I can't see in my mind
A picture of you painted, so vividly
Blood runs through my fingers
And in through
Through my light, through my darkness
Lay down on me, naked gypsy
Watching you bathe in water
False childhood lies, fear in your eyes
Give me a son and daughter
Wish I could, wish I could see you
Lay down on me, naked gypsy
Watching you bathe in water
False childhood lies, fear in your eyes
Give me a son and daughter
Lay down on me, naked gypsy
Watching you bathe in water
False childhood lies, fear in your eyes
Give me a son and daughter
Son and daughter

CD 2

1. THE ACTOR

I smile at the misplaced faces
Trying to convince myself
All the answers lye with me

I look at my broken picture
Find it so hard to believe
As now the past comes back to haunt me

It's alright I'm alright, I just need to believe
I'm not afraid anymore, I will feel my way back
Lay your hands on me

Wish I hadn't been so vain
Been and gone and thrown away
Regrets I keep, the blame I give to me

It's alright I'm alright, I just need to believe
I'm not afraid anymore, I will feel my way back
Lay your hands on me

Here's the point I raise blame
And discipline the fool inside my head
Where nothings fair and no one there
To honour all mistakes I've made
And looking through my own debris
I see nothing but me and more of me
It's so distressing all the blessing
Never seems to fall on me

The picture framed to form an edge
the truth it lies within the heart
It's funny how we live this life and
Never seem to live enough
I won't be true cause I can't seem to
It's only just a state of mind that
time and time and time and time again

It changes, I swallow what I want to say
I'm broken up I cannot breath
I cannot be I need I need to
All in all and every time I follow you
I see it out; see it out of blind eyes

It's alright I'm alright, I just need to believe
I'm not afraid anymore, I will feel my way back
Lay your hands on me


2. ALONE

Autumn leaves are falling down again,
Last year seems like yesterday
What to do now that those days are gone
I have to start again

Inspiration ain't so hard to find
Words already on the page
I just have to write it down
In my own way
Say something worth saying

Time comes and goes
A life unnoticed
Cry out loud

Don't let me wake from this dream
I won't be a friend in need
No one escapes from this feeling
No no

I tell myself hold on
Everything is right, not wrong
Love is what I ask for tonight

Hold onto me
I can't breath
Why am I alone

Blame them but don't blame me
I know all the liars disagree
You can't just escape from believeing
No no


3. RIPPLES
[org. Genesis]

Bluegirls come in every size
Some are wise and some otherwise,
They got pretty blue eyes.
For an hour a man may change
For an hour her face looks strange -
Looks strange, looks strange.

Marching to the promised land
Where the honey flows and takes you by the hand,
Pulls you down on your knees,
While youre down a pool appears.
The face in the water looks up,
And she shakes her head as if to say
That its the last time you'll look like today.

Sail away, away
Ripples never come back.
Gone to the other side.
Sail away, away.

The face that launched a thousand ships
Is sinking fast, that happens you know,
The water gets below.
Seems not very long ago
Lovelier she was than any that I know.

Angels never know it's time
To close the book and gracefully decline,
The song has found a tale.
My, what a jealous pool is she.
The face in the water looks up
She shakes her head as if to say
That the bluegirls have all gone away.

Sail away, away
Ripples never come back.
They've gone to the other side.
Look into the pool,
Ripples never come back,
Dive to the bottom and go to the top
To see where they have gone
Oh, they've gone to the other side...

Sail away, away
Ripples never come back.
Gone to the other side.
Look into the pool,
The ripples never come back, come back,
Dive to the bottom and go to the top
To see where they have gone
Theyve gone to the other side
Ripples never come back
Sail away, away...

4. ALONG THE WAY

Yes I found heaven and I can take you there
And I found a reason but you don't care
So turn your back don't look round
Close your eyes make no sound are you leaving?
Close the door like before turn around
Are you sure that you mean it?
And you can take another step along the way

Just keep your eyes on the road that lies before you
Take advice from a fool who chose to ignore you
And choose the side of the fence that you sit
And just keep crossing that bridge

Take it or leave it, the decision is yours now
Is it time to get even or time to just go now?
But as you're breaking free you mean nothing to me just a memory
And the memories will fade just like tides drift away to the sea

Keep your eyes on the road that lies before you
Take advice from a fool who chose to ignore you
And choose the side of the fence that you sit
Just believe in it now
And walk away from the world you don't fit
And just keep crossing that bridge

Yes I found Heaven


5. BIKO
[org. Peter Gabriel]


September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine
It was business as usual
In police room 619
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
-The man is dead

When I try to sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white
With only one colour dead
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
-The man is dead

You can blow out a candle
But you can't blow out a fire
Once the flames begin to catch
The wind will blow it higher
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
-The man is dead

And the eyes of the world are
watching now
watching now


6. LOVER'S LEAP
[org. Genesis]

Walking across the sitting-room, I turn the television off.
Sitting beside you, I look into your eyes.
As the sound of motor cars fades in the night time,
I swear I saw your face change, it didn't seem quite right.
...And it's hello babe with your guardian eyes so blue
Hey my baby don't you know our love is true.

Coming closer with our eyes, a distance falls around our bodies.
Out in the garden, the moon seems very bright,
Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly.
The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand.
...And it's hey babe your supper's waiting for you.
Hey my baby, don't you know our love is true.

I've been so far from here,
Far from your warm arms.
It's good to feel you again,
It's been a long long time. Hasn't it?


7. NO SON OF MINE

well, the key to my survival
was never in much doubt
the question was how I could keep sane
trying to find the way out

things were never easy for me
peace of mind was hard to find
and I needed a place where I could hide
somewhere I could call mine

I didn't think much about it
'till it started happening all the time
soon I was living with the fear everyday
of what might happen that night

I couldn't stand to hear the
crying of my mother
and I remember when
I swore that, that would be the
last they'd see of me
and I never went home again

they said "time is a healer"
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say

he sat me down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes

he said:

you're no son, you're no son of mine
you're no son, you're no son of mine
you walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, no son of mine

oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

you're no son, you're no son of mine,
but where should I go
and what should I do?
you're no son, you're no son of mine,
but I came here for help, I came here for you

Well, the years they passed so slowly
I thought about him everyday
what would I do, if we passed on the street
would I keep running away?

in and out of hiding places
soon I'd have to face the facts
we'd have to sit down and talk it over
and that would mean going back

they said "time is a healer"
and now my wounds are not the same
I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth
I had to hear what he'd say

He sat me down to talk to me
he looked me straight in the eyes

he said:

You're no son, no son of mine
You're no son, no son of mine
You walked out, you left us behind
and you're no son, no son of mine

oh his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it
and as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

You're no son, no son of mine
but where should I go,
and what should I do
you're no son, no son of mine
but I came here for help, I came here for you

8. SHIPWRECKED

I'm a million miles from anywhere, where can I be
Somewhere out on the ocean
Just take a look at the horizon, what can you see
There's nothing there for me

I feel shipwrecked, I might as well be shipwrecked
I'm helpless and alone, drifting out to sea
I can't believe what you said to me

Even standing on the corner of a busy city street
I still feel so lonely
Why do you say you want to be with me
But the next day say you don't

I'm shipwrecked, I might as well be shipwrecked
I'm helpless and alone drifting out to sea
I can't believe what you said to me
Without you i feel shipwrecked
But I can't let it show
A million miles away from anywhere

Is it my imagination
Or is it getting darker, are the waves getting higher
I'm a million miles from anywhere
A million miles from anything I know

You know that's why I'm shipwrecked
I might as well be shipwrecked
I'm helpless and alone drifting out to sea
I can't believe what you said to me
You know that's why I'm shipwrecked, shipwrecked
Losing my direction
Please come and rescue me
Shipwrecked, Shipwrecked, Shipwrecked

9. NOT ABOUT US

Alittle piece of something
Falling gently down down down
No one understands you like I do

I'd rather be beside you
Everything we know so well
Tell me what you feel now
Show me what you think of it

It's not about us anymore
It's all about the reasons
That we think we're fighting for
It's not about hate
It's not about pain we always feel
I know we have our problems
But we're not the only ones
It's not about you, it's not about me
It's not about anger
It's more about the loneliness we feel

How can I begin to
Ask for some forgiveness
For all that we have taken
There's nothing left now

Just a little piece of something
Falling gently down down down
No one understands you no no
Like I do
There's nothing left now

It's not about us anymore
It's all about the reasons
That we think we're fighting for
It's not about hate
It's not about pain we always feel
I know we have our problems
But we're not the only ones
It's not about you, it's not about me
It's not about anger
It's more about the loneliness we feel

It's not about us
It's not about hate
It's more about the loneliness we feel
It's not about anger
It's not about wanting
I know we have our problems
But we're not the only ones

10. SOMETIMES

See me out, out the door, across the way
And let me walk for miles and miles and miles
Calm me down when I get scared
And hold my life in your hand

The living space inside my head is there for you
Like a long lost friend
Innocence and pride
Makes me vulnerable sometimes
Love ain't enough

Sometimes love just ani't enough
Sometimes love ain't enough
You git it time
Somehow time's all you have

It's the meaning of lofe
And no amount of time will change a thing
Why oh why
In Gods name do you lie?
All the time

Sometimes love just ani't enough
Sometimes love ain't enough
You git it time
Somehow time's all you have

11. THE LAMB LIES DOWN ON BRODWAY


Early morning Manhattan,
Ocean winds blow on the land.

Movie-Palace is now undone,
The all-night watchmen have had their fun.
Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show,
It's the same old ending - time to go.
Get out!
It seems they cannot leave their dream.
There's something moving in the sidewalk steam,
And the lamb lies down...on Broadway.

Nightime's flyers feel their pains.
Drugstore take down the chains.
Metal motion comes in bursts,
The gas station can quench that thirst.
Suspension cracked on unmade road
The trucker's eyes read 'Overload'

And out on the subway,
Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Exits into daylight, spraygun hid,
And the lamb lies down...on Broadway.

The lamb seems right out of place,
Yet the Broadway street scene finds a focus in its face.
Somehow it's lying there,
Brings a stillness to the air.
Though man-made light, at night is very bright,
There's no whitewash victim,
As the neons dim, to the coat of white.


Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid
Wipes his gun - he's forgotten what he did,

And the lamb lies down...on Broadway.

Suzanne tired her work all done,
Thinks money - honey - be on - neon.
Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn
And the sawdust king spits out his scorn.
Wonder women you can draw your blind!
Don't look at me! I'm not your kind.
I'm Rael!
Something inside me has just begun,
Lord knows what I have done,
And the lamb lies down...on Broadway.
On Broadway -
They say the lights are always bright on Broadway.
They say there's always magic in the air.


12. SWING YOUR BAG

Another Saturday night
I'm sitting here at home
Ain't got nobody
I'm all alone
Sometimes it seems
Like there's no-one to love me
No more
Oh oh oh

So I put on some jeans
And I head off down town
To look for some fun
But there's none to be found
Sometimes it seems
Like there's no one to party
No more
Oh oh oh

Maybe I'm getting old
But I'm not getting grey
Brighten up your life
In that old familiar way
(What you going to do)

You've got to swing your bag
(Swing your bag baby)
Let your hair hang down
(Swing it swing it)
Always look behind
Before touching your toes
You've got to swing your bag
(Swing your bag baby)
Right around your head
(Swing it swing it)
Whenever your life
Is becoming a drag
Swing you bag

So if watching the box
Becomes top of the bill
Get some insurance
Maybe make out your will
You only live once
But it's never too late
You can even swing your bag
Up at those pearly gates

Maybe I'm getting old
But I'm not going grey
Brighten up your life
In that old familiar way
(What you going to do)


13. KNOCKIN' ON HEAVEN'S DOOR
[org. Bob Dylan]

Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore.
It's gettin' dark, too dark for me to see
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore.
That long black cloud is comin' down
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door



14. AIRPORT SONG


Here I am sitting AT the airport
Waiting on a plane
Taking me to New York
Choking on my coffee
As a girl goes past
Only funny things seem to make me laugh

When I came I didn’t know that I’d be
Still here a week next Friday
The plane was late
Cause it’s raining outside
Someone stole the engines
And we’re going to have to glide

But I can’t sit here forever
Cause I want to go home
Never have I felt so bad
Maybe I’ll just take a cab
Cause I think I’m going mad

Went to the bar to buy myself a beer
Met up with a guy
Who’d arrived last year
Bought myself a whisky
And lit a cigarette
Said the more you seem to drink
Well the easier it gets

So I guess I’m trying to tell you
That if you’re going to fly
Get a set of wings
And kiss your arse goodbye
When you pack your case
Better pack yourself a bed
Cause if you had a wish
You’d be wishing you were dead

La la la la


15. REST IN PEACE

Each night I taste the silence
of the words in my throat
Each day we hide in laughter
when they turn round and float
Do you lie back and thing of England
as they shout in your face
stand up and give them flowers
mary full of grace

Temper's out of control again
there's an itch in my soul again
If I scratch it I will rest in peace

Each day I'm in the future
of a net curtained past
each day I'm out of pocket
time didn't last
Each night I wake up smoking
and my eyes start to sting
wish I could keep them open
when the trees start to sing

Temper's out of control again
there's an itch in my soul again
If I scratch it I will rest in peace

Each night I taste the silence
of the words in my throat
each day we hide in laughter
when they turn round and float

Temper's out of control again
there's an itch in my soul again
If I scratch it I will rest in peace
If I scratch it I will rest in peace
Rest in peace

1. FLY HIGH

See straight, stay awake, live a troubled life
Certified useless
A lost cause, just a waste, stupid
A bit of heat for a cold girl, me
Satellite, satellite, yes
I'm looking out for a new way of life

Did you know? Who you're making trouble with, me
Me, me, me

Fly high
Don't let me near you
Fly high
I want to see you

Listen! Blue eyes, paralyse
It's a struggle girl keep away from me
Bad taste, below the waist
I want to take you from behing, oh yeah
What a life, what a life
Living hard, getting harder

Did you know? Who you're making trouble with, me
Did you know? What I wanna strugge with
Me, me, me

Fly high
Don't let me near you
Fly high
I want to see you
Fly high
Put your hands over your eyes
See me in your mind
Fly high
I wanna fear you
Sentence me to life

Let me love again, help me breathe life
Watch me fall down on my knees
Sheltered from the rain, help you get dry
Wishing you'd become, mine

Let me love again, help me breathe life
Watch me fall down on my knees
Sheltered from the rain, help you get dry
Wishing you'd become, mine

Fly high
Wishing you'd become mine
Fly high
Wishing you'd become mine
Fly high
Wishing you'd become mine


2. TAKING TIME


I'm taking time getting over it
Burying my head in the sand
Losing faith in reality
First hand

Staying calm through the crisis
Staring my fears in the face
Living life in overdrive, always
I'll never change

Your words are so colourful
I'm black and blue
I'm falling into

Taking my time
Staying in control
Trying hard to figure out
What it's all for
I'm caught in two minds
And lonely as hell
Losing all patience
I know it too well
If only I'd listened to my friends
I wish I oould just run away
This fall from grace is too much
I'm stranded alone
Carrying a weight
Talking to myself
Don't know what's worse
Been frozen out, it's cold in hell
Yet here I am making peace with the devil

Blistered down to my fingers
Working my life to the bone
So stressed out, I can hardly sleep
Alone, I'm so alone

Your eyes of steel
Just make me feel
So cold inslde
You lied to me

I'm taking my time
Staying in control
Trying hard to figure out
What it's all for...

I must be crazy in the head
To believe the thlngs you told me
I knew that they were lies
But convinced myseif that some how you and I
Could find a way

Taking my time (taking my tlme)
Staying in control (staying in control)
Trying hard to figure out
What it's all for (what it's all for)
I'm caught in two minds
And lonely as hell
Losing all patience
I know it too well (know it too well)
If only I'd listened to my friends
I wish I could just run away
This fall from grace is too much
I'm stranded alone (stranded alone)
Carrying a weight
Talking to myself
Don't know what's worse
Been frozen out, it's cold in hell
And hear I am making peace with the devil (peace with the devil)

"Woe to you oh earth and sea, for the devil sends the beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short, let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number, its number is 666" (Revelation Ch.X111 V.18)


3. SHE

You said you're getting over me
But I have to know
I have to know it's over
Cause maybe i'm not over you and i have to go
I have to find another
And lady when I'm over you
Then you'll have to know
You'll have to know l'm over you
Something I've been needing to
Be alone with you
Don't tell me that it's over, no

I feel alive
Feel alive, I don't know
I feel a light, feel a light coming on
I feel alive, oh no

You said you were getting over me
But I have to know
I have to know it's over
Cause maybe I'm not over you and 1 have to go
I have to find another
And lady when I'm over you
Then you'll have to know
Have to know I'm over you
Something I've been needing to
Be alone with you
Don't tell me that it's over, no

She only feels for me
She only sees for me
She only feels for me
She only sees for me
She only breathes for me
She only lives for me

You said you're getting over me
But I have to know
I have to know it's over
Cause maybe I'm not over you and I have to go
I have to find another
And lady when I'm over you
Then you'll have to know
Have to know I'm over you
Something I've been needing to, be alone with you
Don't tell me that it's over, no
Don't tell me that it's over, no

She
You said your getting over me (repeated)

4. LEMON YELLOW SUN


Forget me! That what you said
For me it was a summer that I'll never forget
The best way to believe in the fate
It brought us both together
And I know it will again
It's more than just a moment in time
No question in my mind

The spirit never lies
However hard you try
I could see your tears
In the Lemon Yellow Sun
A picture of your face
Etched on my mind
There's no use trying to hide your feelings

Forgive me for telling you straight
I'm not about to turn around and just walk away
The best things come to those who wait
I'll hold on for dear life
No metter how long it takes
It's only just a question of time
There's no doubt in my mind

The spirit never lies
However hard you try
I could see your tears
In the Lemon Yellow Sun
A picture of your face
Etched on my mind
No use trying to hide your feelings

I carry a secret I've no one to tell
There's something that I've needed to say farewell to
Follow your instinct , listen to your soul
There's no one else who knows
There's no one else who truly knows

Forget me! That what you said
Forgive me but I can't forget
It's only just a matter of time
No question in my mind

The spirit never lies
However hard you try
I could see your tears
In the Lemon Yellow Sun
A picture of your face
Etched on my mind
No use trying to hide your feelings
So tell me if I'm wrong
That I'm not the one
Who made you feel alive
In the Lemon Yellow Sun
I know what you're dreaming of
I know what you're feeling
I don't wanna stop myself believing
Believing

5. WAKE UP YOUR MIND


There are promises you could not keep
You didn't even try
And that's no way
To live your life
Somethings hidden in your past
Preacher pray for me
It's gonna be black again some day
All of the lies you're sending
How many times can you break me ?
Until I turn it around

Wake up your mind
Wake up your mind
You're wasting time, what, are you looking for
Wake up you mind
Wake up your mind

Empty moments that you shared with me
A worthless life
You're leading me on
Watch the curtain finally falling down
Is your life a circus ?
Did you send me the clown ?

Wake up your mind...
Love, Peace, War, Hate, Words
No, they mean nothing to me
Love, Peace, War, Hate, Words
No, they mean nothing to me
Sleeping, 1 watch you sleeping
Wake up your mind

Wake up your mind
Wake up your mind
You're wasting time, what, are you looking for
Wake up you mind
Wake up your mind
Wake up you mind
Wake up your mind
You're wasting my time
You're wasting my time
You're wasting my time

Love, Peace, War, Hate, Words no, they mean nothing to me
Love, Peace, War, Hate, Words no, they mean nothing to me

6. SICK AND TIRED

I used to think it would never end
Eternally, forever and a day, infinite, always
Nothing could be better than a life alone with you

The funny thing is a piece of me
The sceptic who is walting for the day to prove me wrong again
You're wrong again !
Should have known better than to leave myself open
The fool is a victim
Sitting in the corner of a room somewhere with pictures in pieces
Scattered all around

The conversation is about life
How so many things come and go with no rhyme or reason
Seems the best ones, come to those who wait

I'm sick and tired of waiting
Wasting so much time when you dont want me to hold on
It's messing up my mind
I'm not expired or broken
There's still so much lnside
And yes I listened, you told me
Every word a lie

I really hope that it works out
I wouldn't wish any harm to find you
Everything is destiny
Whether I like it or not - I don't
I'll find faith in my own way
Part of me will always wonder what you're thinking
Who you dream of
Want and are in need of

I'm sick and tired of waiting...

Sick and tired
It's all excuses
Every word you tell me
Seems to disappear without trace
I'm alive don't you see it
Every word is nothing but a lie to me I know it so well

I don't think that you could ever leave me
I know you're rightfully the one for me
'cause evemhing is destiny !
The ride is fast but I hold tight
I raise my dukes and prepare for a new fight
Not what is right but what is wrong
I feel the winds of the storm but I carry on
While you're torn, I'm born
You think in lies this is no fun
But look inside and you'll see there's a new sun !

I'm sick and tired of waiting
Waiting
Wasting so much time when you don't want me to hold on
What is rlght for what ls wrong
It's messlng up my mind
It's messing up my mind
I'm not expired or broken
While you're torn, I'm born
There's still so much inside
And yes I listened, listening, you told me
Every word a lie
Hearing all your lies


7. CONSTANTLY REMINDED

I've been thinking a lot these days
And trying to make it work between us
I sense you slowly moving away
Not taking me with you
If aill the years amount to nothing
With the future so unclear
Is this what it was all for ?
Do you want me to leave here ?

I'm done with waking up alone
And tired of being cast aside
Still hurting from your promises
The ones you couldn't keep and didn't try to
And maybe I trusted you too much
I'd like to take it all back now
Start over again
Having learned from my mistake

Constantly reminded of you
Everywhere I look I see your face
It's painted on my mind
I'm still lonely
And constantly reminded of you
I just had to let you know

You're all that I wanted
I'm not lying to myself
I'm entrusting somebody else
To make it ok
I want to be there with you
I want to hold onto you
Will you stay with me tonight ?

Constantly reminded of you
Everywhere I look 1 see your face
It's painted on my mind
I'm still lonely
And constantly reminded of you
I just had to let you know

I live ln fear, constantly
I never know why
I don't even know me
I'm a shadow of myself
To be here, constantly
Following me
I'm gonna make it out

Constantly reminded of you
Everywhere I look I see your face
It's painted on my mlnd
I'm still lonely
Constantly remlnded of you
I just had to let you know
Constantly reminded of you
You're painted on my mind
Constantly reminded of you
I just had to let you know

A fading photograph
The one I thought was mine
You're always there, always there
Are you there ?


8. SHOW ME THE WAY

It was all or nothing
This much I know
A chance I had to take
My instincts I followed
And if 1 do regret it
It's just a lesson learned
Could you stay another day ?

It's all a blessing
I should tell myself
It's all for a reason
And only a cry for help
And maybe next tlme
I'll find a different way
To stay another day

Just show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
How long, how long
Is there time enough to change it ?
How long, how long
Will I know when 1 have found it ?
Stay in my life
Teach me how to find my way
Stay here, all eyes
Are upon you hoping
Would you help me ?

Just show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way
Show me the way

I feel you close to me at night
I always know that you are there
There is a part of me that walks alone
Until 1 see you again

I'm not taking the easy way out
Taking the easy way out
I'm not taking the easy way out
Of here, of here, of here

9. FAME

Hello, my name ls Marta, 1 am 22 Years old, my hobbies are dancing and singing, my ambition ls to help people who are less fortunate than myself and to make a shit toad of cash

Nothing ever comes easy in this life
You never know what they're really thinking
Try hard to pretend it's ok
You get down and you just end up drinking
And so you look to the Gods for help
And try to make sense from it all
Just breathe easy and believe me
Nothing worthwhile ever comes easy
You're in the machine now

Fame, fame the people know your name
It isn't all that lt's cracked up to be
I'll say it again
Famz, fame welcome to the machine
You got exactly what they wanted for you

You see all these talent less fuckers on TV
And a judge with suit from Armani
Sits back with his words of wisdom
As the TV ratings go through the ceiling
And all the people at home with their shallow lives
Looking to be part of something
Just entertain me nice and easy
Take my extremely dull life and free me
I'm living the dream

Fame, fame the people know your name
It isn't all that it's cracked up to be
I'll say it again
Fame, fame welcome to the machine
You got exactly what they wanted for you

I know there's no point in saying this
It's maybe even a little bit dangerous
Be aware that the share holders own you
They can bounce you around if they want to
It's good that they fight for survival
At least until there's a Beatles revival
Looks like those days have gone
If the numbers don't add up
It must be wrong

RIGHT ? QUITE RIGHT !

Oh my God thank you for making my dream a reality, thank you so much, thank you, I'm so happy

Fame, fame the people know your name
It isn't all that it's cracked up to be
I'll say it again
Fame, fame welcome to the machine
You got exactly what they wanted for you
Fame, fame
Fame, fame
Fame, fame welcome to the machine
You got exactly what they wanted for you

I'm so happy, thank you, you guys are great


10. SOME OF ALL MY FEARS

Can you erase such deep emotion ?
Should we extract the hand of peace ?
Hide in shelters with blank faces
Fill the hole and lay the wreath
Do we belong ln the same surroundings ?
Fuelled by guilt and hate and greed
Does anybody have the answer ?
Could someone please explain to me ?
Some of all my fears

I, sleep with one eye open
I, asking for forgiveness
Why, begging you for mercy
I, Oh just what are you afraid of

To be oppressed, destroyed or cast aside
Surely only makes it worse
Ridicule exposes weakness
And reads like some satanic verse
It's easy just to show indifference
When deep down we all know it's use
Strike a blow or strike a balance
Before they breed their Hitler youth
Call a meeting of our spirits and drive a stake through our beliefs
Or tell them we don't care at all

I, stand up and be counted
I, stun me into silence
Why, sleep with one eye open
Oh just what are you afraid of

The sum of all my fears
Some of all my fears
Some of all my fears
Oh just what are you afraid of

I, sleep with one eye open
I, asking for forgiveness
Why, begging you for mercy
I, just what are you afraid of

Why, begging you for mercy
I, just what are you afraid of

11. SUMMER DAYS

Endless nights, summer days
Thoughts of you never fade
I see you still in my mind
Every day and through the night

What you told me, echoes still
It never leaves me, it never will
You can't imagine
How I feel

Is it me holdlng on too long ?
Is it me who's more than just a friend ?
Is it me expecting too much
Is it me ?

In my life you belong
I've made my mind up and you're the one
I'll be waiting from now on

And what you promised
It echoes still
I believed you and I still
Can remember how you feel
So real

Is it me holding on too long ?
Is lt me expecting too much
Is lt me chasing a dream ?
Is it me ?

I'd cry a million tears and they keep falling
I guess I was weak
I should have walked away
Calling out I'm calling out
Hear me, can you hear me

Is it me holding on too long ?
Is it me expecting too much
Is it me lying to myself ?
Is it me, is it me
It's not my fault


12. BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME

A lonely ghost's holding me
Let me out
Let me die slowly
I hide away totally alone
Don't come around here to see what's going on
I know, I'm a stranger
Everywhere I look
The pictures remaining the same
I'd crawl a high wire
Just to escape with
Bits and pleces of me
It's no way to live, I'm wasted here

In this town everything stays the same
Let's get the fuck out of here
In this life, you're too predictable
You're borlng the ass off me
Strong words from such a small mlnd
Just goes to show
Should be leavlng the past behind
In this town everything stays the same
Better luck next time

Small town politics, lts all around
The best idea ls what I have in mind
Words with''mecining, from the soul
I sit around a lot and fool around too much
I'm glad I'm alive I wish I was sane
Whatever sane is ?
It's 6 o'clock and l'm still bere
But not for long
It's no way to live
I'm wasted here

In this town everything stays the same
Let's get the fuck out of here
In this life, you're too predictable
You're boring the ass of me
Strong words from such a small mind
Just goes to show
Should be leaving the past behind
In this town everything stays the same
Better luck next time

God alone knows God alone knows
Feel what 1 feel from my heod to my toes
God alone knows God alone knows
He knows you know

In this town everything stays the same
Let's get the fuck out of here
In this life, you're too predictable
You're boring the ass of me
Strong words from such a small mind
Just goes to show
Should be leaving the past behind
In this town everything stays the same
Better luck next time

With this lie nobody takes the blame
Let's get the fuck out of here
In my head you're all I can ever hear
You're draining my energy
Small words just to kill time
You never know if they're working you from behind
In this town everything stays the same
Better luck next time
I wish you luck next time
Now get the fuck out of here

1. BLESS ME

Bless me said the lonely boy
Bless me said the lonely boy
Why am I so lonely
Why does no one want me in their life

Bless me said the lonely girl
Bless me said the lonely girl
Why does no one love me
Why will no one ever tell me why

Bless me said the lonely man
Bless me said the lonely man
Now that my wife left me
Who is going to fill my dreams at night

I try but I don't succeed, It's only life
Made for changing and there for the rest of time

Bless me for the love of God
Bless me for the love of God
Can't you understand me
Try to make a difference in my life
I just don't belong here
And everyone can see it in my eyes

Bless me
Bless me said the lonely man
Bless me
Bless me said the lonely man
Bless me

I'd kill for love I'd kill for love
Bless me, Bless me, Bless me

Love is all

Kabi kabi mere dil me khayal ata he



2. LATELY

Lately I've had so much on my mind

Patience, must be patient, give it time
Hold on to this moment, hold on tight
You say, time waits for no man

I'll wait I will trust in destiny
Place faith in my own ability
Lately I've had so much on my mind
Maybe life will bring to me what's mine

Hold on, to this moment, hold on tight
You say, time waits for no man

Patience


3. THE BRAKES ARE GONE

The brakes are gone
And the less I think about it, the better
It only makes me feel what I don’t want to feel
Holding onto memories of you

Save me, save me from myself, please
The fear I have is real fear
That everyone and everything feels

It’s not a love thing
It’s like a special gift to me
Something I wanted
But left behind and never found again

The sentence doesn’t fit the crime
Imprisoned by the gift of time
And knowing I’m alone again tonight

Awake me, I sleep inside this memory
I need to find a new dawn
A sun that lights this misery

It’s not a love thing
It’s like a special wish to me
Something I wanted but left behind
And never found again

And I can see it so clear
I know it’s there I try to bring it near
I only wanted to believe and hold on

The special feeling’s all I have
I really feel the meaning of
Inner strength might fall away but
I know I’ll get it back some day

And I can see it so clear
I know it’s there I try to bring it near
I only wanted to believe and hold on

The brakes are gone
And the less I think about it, the better

Reflection


4. RAZORLITE

Razorlite, see a different life
You're running wild through the death of night
And from the days of your crisis
Are memories that you can not forget
But you've got so many reasons to get high, tonight

Foolish dreams, won't change anything
All you'll ever have is what the future brings
The blossom has gone, with every season
And you've got so many reasons to ask why, tonight

Is all you wanted, anything you need
The voices in your head all dissagree

Razorlite, it's all black and white
You know that's it's up to you, if you live to die
But you've got so many reasons to get high, tonight

Close your eyes

Razorlite
Raise a light

Hope


5. PROPAGANDA MAN

Just another lie
On a different day
Something to believe in
For evil to embrace
And to feast on, bad ideals
Just to wipe out all these infidels
Propaganda man
Propaganda man

In a sorry state
Forlorn man
Practicing his faith
That you don't understand
Looks for answers, material
He'll wait until time in memorial
Propaganda man

Life alone is no match for dreams
Looking through the mist
Will not allow you to see clear
Why owe, a debt to your soul
You will always reap what you have sewn
Propaganda man
Propaganda man
Propaganda man

When life's door is closed in your face
And you have taken steps
To wipe out all the human race
Wash away the blood from off your soul
Let it flow into the promised land
Of propaganda man, propaganda man

Propaganda man
Propaganda man

Truth


6. FREQUENCY

The dead city radio, pours out of the open window
Static fires into the atmosphere
And moments and memories
Are lost to the frequencies, in the air

And the sad face on reality is no longer sitting next to me
A smile appeared to dry the tears away
And the demons and angels
Are tolling on the iron bell, in the street

Alive to me, love heals me fills all lost souls
These days are golden once more
And I've been forsaken too often
It's all inside me
Better to live life I'm sure you'll agree

I saved myself, from me again
Go on and fight another day
With no door left unopened
I know you must be looking for the way ahead

Alive to me love heals me fills all lost souls
These days are golden once more

The dead city radio, pours out of the open window
The static fires into the atmosphere
And moments and memories
Are lost to the frequencies, in the air

Healing


7. MODERN DAY MIRACLE

You once were a trusted friend
Relied on your every word
Just like some modern day miracle
They could not find a cure for
A last and final wish
Just something maybe worth living for

I wish that I could erase
Put myself in a different place
This feeling is washing right over me
It cuts right to the core
Don't have much left to give
It's maybe something worth living for

I don't aks for too much
Just bring me back from the dead
Don't break my spirit, hold a gun to my head
Your act was so selfish, it was greed

I'm sorry I tried my best
I've given up, I'm out of this

In time you'll remember just what you had
Much later much too late
You must be mesmerised
You say it's a sign you must follow it

Fool

Your mistake
No regrets
Your mistake

Forgiveness


8. COSMIC BABY

I don’t want to wait around too long

You better not let me down
You better not leave me here
You better not try to change things
You better not disappear

You better not take revenge
You better wait till the end
You better not back the loser
You better not try to see her again
You better not try to see her again

I don’t wanna wait around too long

The life was made for me
This life was meant for me

You better not make mistakes
You better not fool around
You better not make me pay
You better not no you better not

You better not find your peace
You better not get release
You better not fall on stony ground
You better not let your guard down

The life was made for me
I don’t wanna wait around too long

You better not make mistakes
You better not fool around
You better not make me pay for this
You better not no you better not
Cosmic baby, cosmic baby

You better not let me down
You better not leave me here
You better not try to change things
You better not disappear

You better not make mistakes
You better not fool around
You better not make me pay for this
You better not no you better not

Cosmic baby

The life was made for me, cosmic baby
I don’t wanna wait around too long

Cosmic baby

The life was meant to be, cosmic baby
I don’t wanna wait around too long

I don’t wanna wait around too long

Fear


9 . THINGS DON'T STOP

Things don't stop
Just because life gets tough
You feel like giving in
Pleasure or pain
Live without foolish intentions

Things don't stop
Certain as sure enough
You're not a falling rock
Breaking to pieces
Scattering over the ground

Things don't stop
If you fall down stand up
Brush off the grains of rust
Be good to yourself
I hope you hear what I'm saying

Things, things, things, things

Things don't stop
Don't even think you've lost
Mindfull of all you have
Pleasure or pain
Live without foolish intentions

Things don't stop
Run once you've learned to walk
You're not a falling rock
Breaking to pieces
Scattering over the ground

Hope


10. MORE PROPAGANDA

Through a troubled life, an indifferent gaze
A bleeding tortured mind, a failure to amaze

Propaganda man, Propaganda Man, Propaganda Man

When life's door is closed in your face
And you have taken steps to wipe out all the human race
Then wash away the blood from off your soul
Let it flow into the promised land of propaganda man

Lies


11. ON THE OTHER SIDE

If I was a stranger, I'd still call this home
Even through the changes, in life I have known
What lies in the future now, is destiny's game
No point asking questions, the answer doesn't change
I just want to live a life, that teaches me the dark and light
And discipline the part of me, that needs to run away

I don't forget the memories, the fear hasn't gone
The loneliness of nightime and distance till dawn
Finally I understand and won't be going there again
It's confident to my history, I hope it's there for good

You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
No loneliness with you

It I had a need I would surely need you
To help me with the changes that life puts me through
And forget all the other times that someone broke this heart of mine
Every time a lesson learned, it wasn't meant for me

You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
My home is here with you

You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone
You and me on the other side alone, alone
My only wish comes true

Destiny

2. SCARED OF GHOSTS

I see your voice
You're a scared of a ghost
take what you had
from pillar to post
I stand beside you
and look in your eyes
and If you're dead its no surprise
I hear you
I hear you
words don't be afraid
words don't be afraid
don't be afraid
they live your life
through the core of the tune
under advice
You take It too soon
They steal Your name
turn in your grave
their armies march there's nothing to save
now your ideas are rollin in dust
and all you fought
for those who won't trust
take your inversion
and turn It around
paint your perversion and hide it in sound
I hear you
I hear you
words don't be afraid
words don't be afraid
don't be afraid
don't be afraid anymore when they turn out the night
don't be afraid in the dark of the light
don't be afradi anymore at the sound of the sea
don't be afraid


3. HORSE

See me shed in my mind as I leave to find the circles
with the gilded tongue of the eldest son I ask her
and I inch a smile as I take a mile from their longings
and they from a chain in the fleeting rain as I leave them
I don't want to be responsible
look at me now in my real skin
made a vow my real skin
shed it now keep coming in
here for now in my real skin
I saw a picture frame tied to a horse
I saw the crystal night out on the concourse
and the ancient trees of the bended knees will fracture
and we double take an empty wake and leave them
I don't want to be responsible
Chorus:
'round and round and round and round
round and round and round and round'
I don't want to be responsible
I don't want to be respoonsible
look at me now
look at me now
Chorus

4. REST IN PEACE

Each night I taste the silence
of the words in my throat
Each day we hide in laughter
when they turn round and float
Do you lie back and thing of England
as they shout in your face
stand up and give them flowers
mary full of grace

Temper's out of control again
there's an itch in my soul again
If I scratch it I will rest in peace

Each day I'm in the future
of a net curtained past
each day I'm out of pocket
time didn't last
Each night I wake up smoking
and my eyes start to sting
wish I could keep them open
when the trees start to sing

Temper's out of control again
there's an itch in my soul again
If I scratch it I will rest in peace

Each night I taste the silence
of the words in my throat
each day we hide in laughter
when they turn round and float

Temper's out of control again
there's an itch in my soul again
If I scratch it I will rest in peace
If I scratch it I will rest in peace
Rest in peace


5. FOOTSTEPS

You take him places I can't go
You tell him things I don't know
And even when the bonds hold fast
You make me hate the past

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
Suicide...

He leaves you traces I can see
He takes the things you gave to me
And even in the coldest place
I'm just an empty space

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
I'm lost without you
But well I know you go your own way
You never needed me no matter what you say

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
Suicide...

Walking in your footsteps
I used to walk by your side
How could you leave me
On the very edge of suicide
Suicide?


6. SUNSHINE AND BUTTERFLIES

Into a room
old curtains broken chairs
I walk in through
dust on the wooden stairs
stone by the trees
lost days and faded names
pain in my throat
no river stays the same
they won't be here anymore
they won't be here anymore
When the time was new
long days and laughing eyes
walk through the fields
sunshine and butterflies
a fragile place
nothing ever stays for long
a foreign land
take right and make it wrong
they won't be anymore
they won't be anymore
its all lost to the wind
they won't be anymore
into a room
old curtains broken chairs
I walk on through
dust on the wooden stairs
Chorus


7. INSIDE

Swing low
In a dark glass hour
You turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a sone dark night
We take to fight
Snowfall turns to rust

Seam in a fusing mine
Like a nursing rhyme
Fat man start to fall
Long year in a hostile place
I hear your face start to call

And if you think
That I've been loosing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because
I'm broken minded

Don't keep it ...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside

Strong words
In a ganges sky
I have to lie
Shadows move in Paris
Ring out from a bruised postcard
In the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out of the black slate time
We move in line
But never reach an end

Fall in a long stray town
As the ice comes round
River starts to bend

And if you think
That I've been loosing my way
That's because I'm slightly blinded
And if you think
That I don't make too much sense
That's because
I'm broken minded

Don't keep it ...
Inside
If you believe it
Don't keep it all inside


8. AN ILLUSION

I guess I could if I wanted
I guess I could if I wanted
I guess I could if I wanted
I guess I could if I wanted
I don't mind if it's all an illusion
nothing really there
I don't mind if it's all lost in sandstone
or riding on the air
in the night I know that it's true
in the night I know that it's true
in the day I get confused
but in the night I know that it's true
I guess I could if I wanted
I guess I could if I wanted
I guess I could if I wanted
I guess I could if I wanted
I don't mind if I lose all you gave me
you'd never know
I don't mind if you stay on the outside
nothing here to show
Chorus


9. AMERICA

You've got to run to me
You've got to hide from me
You've got to look to me
You've got to close your ears

You've got to be like me
You've got to change from me
You've got to smile to me
You've got to cry your tears

Rhyme America
Rhyme America
Rhyme America
America is me (I'm in America)
America is me (I'm in America)

You've got to see through me
You've got to feel for me
You've got to kill for me
You've got to save my life

You've got to sell me
You've got to buy from me
You've got to watch with me
You've got to hide your eyes

Rhyme America
Rhyme America
Rhyme America
America is me (I'm in America)
America is me (I'm in America)


10. WHEN MY SHIP COMES IN

A matter of empty gestures
A question of circumstance
But only fools turn
You gave without a question
You spoke without conceit
I had too much to learn

We'll be together
We'll be together
We'll be together when my ship comes in

I meant to take it further
I meant to hide your fears
I'm down with all the lice
I want to make it better
I want to sink your pain

Every beggar is Christ

We'll be together
We'll be together
We'll be together when my ship comes in

We'll be together
We'll be together
We'll be together when my ship comes in

Every beggar is Christ

We'll be together
We'll be together
We'll be together when my ship comes in

I hear you in the darkness
Deep heat from your tears
I don't want to be divided
I wish I could lose myself
I wish I could un-meet you
I don't want to be divided

We'll be together
We'll be together
We'll be together when my ship comes in

THESE ARE THE CHANGES

"24 months ago and yesterday in the memory of America
The centre of New York City became a battlefield
And a graveyard and the symbol of an unfinished war"

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

"Like it or not we live in times of danger and uncertainty
that is the way he lived
That is what he leaves us
My brother need not to be idolised
Or enlarged in death beyond what he was in life
Be remembered simply as a good and decent man
Who saw wrong and tried to right it
Saw suffering and tried to heal it
Saw war and tried to stop it"

"We must recognise that ending the war
Is only the first step towards building the peace
All parties must now see to it that this is a peace that lasts"

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

"I have asked for this radio and television time tonight
For the purpose of announcing that we today have concluded
An agreement to end the war
And bring peace with honour in Vietnam"

Know me, see me, try too understand me
Why, you ask

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes that day brings
These are the changes that day brings us
These are the changes

"I know that over the years many of toy have seen
the pictures and news clips of the wall that divides
Berlin, but believe me, no American who sees first
hand, the concrete and mortar, the guard posts, the
machine gun towers, the dog runs and the barbed
wire can ever again take for granted his or her
freedom or the precious gift that is America"

INSIDE

Swing low in a dark glass hour, you turn and cower
See it turn to dust
Move on a stone dark night we take to flight
Snow fall turns to rust
Seam in a fusing mine like a nursing rhyme
Fat man starts to fall
Year in a hostile place
I hear your cafe start to call

And if you think that I've been losing my way
That's because i'm slightly blinded
And if you think that I don't make too much sense
That's because I'm broken minded

Don't keep it, inside
If you believe it - Don't keep it all inside

Strong words in a Ganges sky, I have to lie
Shadows move in pairs
Ring out from a bruised post card in the shooting yard
Looking through the tears
Out of the black slate time we move in line
But never reach an end
Fall in a long stray town as the ice comes down
Rivers start to bend

And if you think that I've been losing my way
That's because i'm slightly blinded
And if you think that I don't make too much sense
That's because I'm broken minded

Don't keep it, inside
If you believe it - Don't keep it all inside

(Keep it all Inside)
Don't keep it, inside
If you believe it - Don't keep it all inside
Don't keep it all inside
If you believe it - Don't keep it all inside


HOW HIGH

I can't believe it, Iner feelings ever changing
This time it's me slowly going insane
You can't expect me to believe, not this time
Cause i'm going crazy, I'm going out of my mind

How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go

I had a dream, heavens gate came to me
And I fell in to it, this never ending sleep
I had to try hard not to feel inside me
And it wasn't easy to leave it all behind

How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go

You can't expect me to believe
Cause I dont' believe it

How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go
How high
How high can you go


THE FOOL IN ME

She was a loner type
Found it was easier taht way
With no one to break the peace she gained
From learnig to walk away

And he was without good reason
For changing her life the way he did
He took her for everything
Stripped her of dignity

It's a lonely life
Never that easy these days
The money to pay the bills
It just don't come easily
And he was a man that didn't care anyway
He'd just play the clown and sit around all day

With an atmosphere
You could have cut it with a knife

It's the fool in me
It would't be hard to see it
Aothers can hide themselves away
I have to live with it
Nobody wants left on a fence
Or spiritually die in ignorance
It's all just a chance you take
Reality's final break

With an atmosphrer
You could have cut it with a knife


ADOLESCENT BREAKDOWN

See the sign in my eyes. Mind escaping from me
On the crest of my wave too dark to see
And the soreness that I feel beneath the surface
Fear the worst is still to come

Threatening words come my way in some strange disguises
Flesh torn gestures in my face
Don't take my place away
I could try to forgive
Even though I don't know what should be forgiven

Do I go crazy, before you take notice
Until you can see it in me?

Drift away touch upon the deepest emotion
As I watch you'll become, someone else's problem
Given time I'll make waves in another ocean
I'm the chosen one

Do I go crazy, before you take notice
Until you can see it in me, why can't you see it in me?

I adoore you. I deplore you
All your actions I can see through
I can't pretend I know what's going on

Do I go razy. before you take notice
Until you can see it in me, why can't you see it in me?




SOMETIMES

See me out, out the door, across the way
And let me walk for miles and miles and miles
Calm me down when I get scared
And hold my life in your hand

The living space inside my head is there for you
Like a long lost friend
Innocence and pride
Makes me vulnerable sometimes
Love ain't enough

Sometimes love just ani't enough
Sometimes love ain't enough
You git it time
Somehow time's all you have

It's the meaning of lofe
And no amount of time will change a thing
Why oh why
In Gods name do you lie?
All the time

Sometimes love just ani't enough
Sometimes love ain't enough
You git it time
Somehow time's all you have


ALONE

Autumn leaves are falling down again,
Last year seems like yesterday
What to do now that those days are gone
I have to start again

Inspiration ain't so hard to find
Words already on the page
I just have to write it down
In my own way
Say something worth saying

Time comes and goes
A life unnoticed
Cry out loud

Don't let me wake from this dream
I won't be a friend in need
No one escapes from this feeling
No no

I tell myself hold on
Everything is right, not wrong
Love is what I ask for tonight

Hold onto me
I can't breath
Why am I alone

Blame them but don't blame me
I know all the liars disagree
You can't just escape from believeing
No no


MAGIC TRAIN

Life's a magic train hell and back again
Rollercoaster for emotions
You think you've seen it all
You think you know it but you don't know

Life's a magic train that we're all travelling in
Each new day another station
She said she wanted me but it might take a little time
Make take a littel time

Am I supposed to wait around for you?
I'm not opposed to waiting around
I just need to know cause it's nice to be needed
It's getting me down, doing it now

I hold on to love
It's a better place for everyone to be
I alone can't save the world
I'll only save this little part of me
I lie here in my bed
Wishing it would all just blow away

Am I suppodes to play the clown for you?
I'm not that use to fooling around
you say you need me now
Well i'd like to believe it
It's getting me down and doing it now
Getting me down and doing it now
You're going ruin my life


THE ACTOR

I smile at the misplaced faces
Trying to convince myself
All the answers lye with me

I look at my broken picture
Find it so hard to believe
As now the past comes back to haunt me

It's alright I'm alright, I just need to believe
I'm not afraid anymore, I will feel my way back
Lay your hands on me

Wish I hadn't been so vain
Been and gone and thrown away
Regrets I keep, the blame I give to me

It's alright I'm alright, I just need to believe
I'm not afraid anymore, I will feel my way back
Lay your hands on me

Here's the point I raise blame
And discipline the fool inside my head
Where nothings fair and no one there
To honour all mistakes I've made
And looking through my own debris
I see nothing but me and more of me
It's so distressing all the blessing
Never seems to fall on me

The picture framed to form an edge
the truth it lies within the heart
It's funny how we live this life and
Never seem to live enough
I won't be true cause I can't seem to
It's only just a state of mind that
time and time and time and time again

It changes, I swallow what I want to say
I'm broken up I cannot breath
I cannot be I need I need to
All in all and every time I follow you
I see it out; see it out of blind eyes

It's alright I'm alright, I just need to believe
I'm not afraid anymore, I will feel my way back
Lay your hands on me


EVEN THE REASON

Upon my life
Love of an honest day
The memory of you will slowly fade
Within I hold
Hold it all alone
the fire in my soul begins to burn

Better to be alone
Better be alone
It has to be said
Better to be alone
Better be alone

(I believe in me)
No sense in holding on
No eyes to see clear
Pretend to gain control
Of my life

Better to be alone
Better be alone
It has to be said
Better to be alone
Better be alone
It has to be said

(I believe in me)
No sense in holding on
No eyes to see clear
Pretend to gain control
Of my life


PUMPKINHEAD

So what's it all about, does anybody know?
It's hard to figure out, to be patient
The time is nearly now

The walls are closing in
And time is running out
I'm getting out

These changes wash over me in my head

the fear is taking over
And left me so alone
It leaves me feeling angry with myself

These changes wash over me in my head
These changes wash over me in my head in my head


What's it all about what's it all about, does anybody know?
How can I explain to you?
When how do I, I don't kown I won't go
What's it all about where's the feeling gone
I can't explain it, it's in my mind
Burning like a fire that won't go out it won't go out

These changes wash over me in my head

So what's it all about, does anybody care?
Can you feel the fear?
Washing over everybody, everybody's head

These changes wash over me in my head
These changes wash over me in my head in my head
In my head in my head in my head


THE NEXT BEST THING

1. ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN

The silence of night, street light through the window
I'm sitting here alone, me and my shadow
An empty glass and three more cigarettes
I've been here before, but this one's the toughest yet
My mind can't sleep, to forget about it all
I'm still here alone, me and my shadow
I wish I could remember before, the way I used to feel
I've written it down somewhere

Accidents will happen
Accidents will happen
Accidents will happen

I guess it's about time that I should be leaving, a change of scenery
Sitting here's just a no win guarantee
But first I'll draw the curtain, get some rest or sleep
Just a little time for me
I hope that you are watching, I hope that you can see me
From afar I look OK
With no thing really left and no need to be right
There's only dust coming down the centre of life
And I don't have a peaceful moment

Accidents will happen
(I fight, alive, I must)
Accidents will happen
(I'm down and broken)
(No use to fade or die)
Accidents will happen
(It would be hopeless)

Breathe with me, I try to awake you to stop you leave
I scream at the heavens, why won't you help me
I knew it was too late
No hope, no answer
Wish I had remembered to say
"I love you"

Accidents will happen
(I fight, alive, I must)
Accidents will happen
(I'm down and broken)
(No use to fade or die)
Accidents will happen
(It would be hopeless)


2. MORE THAN JUST A MEMORY

From the west side to the east, south side to the north
Life begins to sing
A melody you know, with rhythm from the Gods
Peace and harmony is still aware of you
While you wait for something worse
It's a gift in a year of hope
It helps you from your knees
Don't ever feel alone these days
It's all about face
Smile and you will be there

Pour light on my life
Light on my face
Light on my head
For there I should be
Here in the place
Don't need a reason
Living's more than just a memory for me

You know you really feel the curse, thinner on the edge
But never look down
Just listen to the words, the ones that you should say to yourself
And if things really get unclear, a little too unclear
Remember it could be much worse
I can tell you this here and now
When you start to count the days, till you feel better now
It's all about to change
Smile and you will be there

Pour light on my life
Light on my face
Light on my head
For there I should be
Here in the place
Don't need a reason
Living's more than just a memory for me

Looking inwards, from the outside
You see it clearer
A tower of strength is waiting
All the words you think you want to say
No not me, yeah you

From the west side to the east, south side to the north
And everywhere around you, all around you

Pour light on my life
Light on my face
Light on my head
For there I should be
Here in the place
Don't need a reason
Living's more than just a memory for me


3. THE 7TH DAY

On the 7th day, the sunlight had melted the ice
The steam on the window had crystallised the night before
And you reached out for the warmth in my hand
On the 7th day

And now you know my heart can be broken

And I wait a lot
And I wonder about what you're doing now
And I guess I'll never know it
I look into my mind and ask why
Nothing seems to change, not anymore for me

On the 6th day, I saw you cry for the first time
The day before you realised the time was running out
The 4th day, I felt it, I was alive
The 3rd day, time just flew by

And now it feels like life is over

And so I wait a lot
And I wonder about what you're doing now
And I guess I'll never know it
I look into my mind and ask why
But nothing seems to change, not anymore for me

Crazy Girl, you're crazy

On the 2nd day we both knew
We'd have to forget
The last day came the promise
The promise I regret
And you let go the warmth in my hand
On the last day

And now I guess we both know it's over!

And we wait a lot
And we wonder about
What we're doing now
And I guess we'll never know it
Look into your mind and ask why
But nothing seems to change, not anymore for me

And I followed my heart, like you told me to
And I've given you all
Every friend I have can see it
Shouldn't be alive without a reason
And that reason was you
Not anymore for me

Not anymore for me

Crazy Girl, you're crazy


4. AMERICAN BEAUTY

Lay down your life they said, let me inside your soul.
Always remember this. It's for the sake of us all

American Beauty, tell me what's going to become of me
What have you done to my head?
It feels like you're living inside of me.
American Beauty, living a lie, I shouldn't be.
I want to believe it instead.
And never will erase the memory.

If I can't see, why not?
Have I been blinded by trust?
Or are you testing me, I feel this desperately
Cause I seem to pray a lot.
I'm I lost, in my fear
Cause the more that I look, the less I believe
In something I don't want to see

American Beauty, tell me what's going become of me
What have you done to my head?
It feels like you're living inside of me
American Beauty, living a lie, I shouldn't be
I want to believe it instead
And never will erase the memory

Do I believe in myself, or just don't know me
I've got the world at my feet and a family
The only fight I have's with people I don't know
And the truth is, I don't like where I'm going

American Beauty, tell me what's going become of me
What have you done to my head?
It feels like you're living inside of me
American Beauty, living a lie, I shouldn't be
I want to believe it instead
And never will erase the memory
But what have you done to my head


5. VOICE OF DISBELIEF

Hey ma!I wanna be a rockstar
I told all my friends and bought myself a guitar
Well the voice of disbelief, was deafending
The look upon their faces, almost threatening
All that you could hear were cries of laughter
Someone even said I was a disaster, can you believe it?

Hey ma! I wanna be a rockstar
I told all my firends and bought myslef a guitar
Well the voice of disbelief, was deafending
The look upon their faces, almost threatening
All that you could hear were cries of laughter
Someone even said I was a disaster, can you believe it?

Maybe you'll be pleasnetly surprised,
you'd be right to trust me
I believe the ghost of good news
is gonna be haunting me
Why? I'll never know
Maybe soon I'll find out
I guess I'm in with a shout
Never know if you don't try
I don't know I don't ask why

The voice of Disbelief
Said the voice of Disbelief

Hey ma! I wanna be a rockstar
Hey ma why are you not listening?

Why are you not listening?

6. FIRST DAY OF CHANGE

Cheer up, there's always another day,
Don't be hard on yourself
You wake up and dust yourself down
Say "Never again".
Forget it, it's too late now
You've still got me as your friend
So why don't you come and stay tonight
It's better for you that way

Focus on love, focus on real
And know that you're a friend of mine

If you need a little time for yourself
You know where to find me
If you need a little hope for your soul
Just give me a call
No love in darkness, only in light
Today is the first day of change

Try to remember, try not to regret
No one never said, peace was easy to get
Someday you'll be alone and I will appear
Just like a ghost, don't fear me

Forget it, it's too late now
You've still got me as your friend
So why don't you come and stay tonight
It's better for you that way

Focus on love, focus on real
Just know that you're a friend of mine

If you need a little time for yourself
You know where to find me
If you need a little hope for your soul
Just give me a call
No love in darkness, only in light
Today is the first day of change

Focus on love, focus on real
And give yourself a chance next time.

If you need a little time for yourself
You know where to find me
If you need a little hope for your soul
Just give me a call
No love in darkness, only in light
Today is the first day of change


7. TALE FROM A SMALL TOWN

In a small town, somewhere on the eastern side of the Elbe
A girl looks at the sky, believing that someday she could learn how to fly
And held within this vision, where her secrets lived and breathe
With an inner desire to be free

And they all new she was special, from her first years as a child
Almost like an inner glow, only visible with faith
But you don't ask many questions and you don't reveal your fear
It's here that you belong, there is nowhere else to be

And to light up your life, you have your family and friends who never listen
You can fall into line, just like your mama did and her mama before

It begins as an obsession and ends in misery
Till you're faced with the decision, to stay or to break free
And the choice is never easy, so you have to take and give
Either learning how to die or learning how to live

And to light up your life, you have your family and friends who never listen
You can fall into line, just like your mama did and her mama before
With all your inhibitions increasing inside and no one to talk to
The time has arrived to go your own way, if you don't you'll just regret it

Oh Lord, what else can you do
No one understands how it feels to be
All this indecision is killing me

And to light up your life, you have your family and friends who never listen
You can fall into line, just like your mama did and her mama before
With all your ambitions increasing inside and no one to talk to
The time has arrived to go your own way, if you don't you'll just regret it

If you don't you'll just regret it


8. 14TH MARCH 1962


Are you mystified by what I say?
Do you understand it takes a lot to feel that way
Are you leaving now, please don't look back
In many ways your presence makes it harder to ask
Will you take the feeling of loss away with you
Never to return, you know I would be grateful
Please don't think that I'm not grateful, 'cause I can feel it

I've been mystified by my sacrifice
But I wanted to belong to you
But I was too young

I remember that time, sleeping in the back of a car
Parked on some side street, so people couldn't see us
We were living day to day, the kids too young to remember
Some things just seem to stay inside throughout the years

And if the fears I had haven't changed
I guess it's not the best way to behave
And if it's all that I can have
You really should remember
That I can feel it

I've been mystified by my sacrifice
I wanted to belong to you
But I was too young
And I could write the book about my sacrifice
I wanted to believe you
But I was too young

Too young, too naive
Seems so long ago
But I remember you
Just like yesterday
Like a nightmare I can't wake
I just go on sleeping

And I'm mystified by my sacrifice
I wanted to belong to you
But I was too young
And I could write the book
I could tell you all
I wanted to believe you
But I was too young

I wanted to believe you
But I was too young


9. SHE FLIES

She flies into space, he just waits and counts the days
There's so much he needs to say to her
The crime is not to believe, given time it eats away
Until you feel that you can't take no more

You brace yourself for something worse, just in case she's gone
Nothing makes you safe, you can't rely upon
You hate to admit to yourself, you're hanging on a prayer
Nowhere you can run, something you're depending on

The fear is here again (The voices in my head, ghosts within my soul)
I'm lying in my bed, waiting for a friend
She flies, she flies (Waits and counts the days)
Till you feel that you can't take no more

Your self-belief and dignity is there but only just
A cradle holds her soul, you just can't let it go
A crime, even impunity are dreams you hold so dear
For the sake of love, for the sake of all of us

Pour some dark on me, I don't feel so good
Hold the light up, I need to see you

You brace yourself for something worse, just in case she's gone
Nothing makes you safe, you can't rely upon
You hate to admit to yourself, you're hanging on a prayer
And for the sake of love, for the sake of all of us


10. GUNS OF GOD

Guns of God, 'cause it's not your God
Take it away from, eliminate all of
Praise your Allah
Guns of God, giving no hope of
Draining the life out
Killing the soul of
The fool is in me, driven by love
I'm hungry and older with fear and anger, playing the part
It should have been the role of peace and hope

Shalom! I ease into a sleep
Shalom! And count the lives like sheep
Shalom! Our hopes go up in flames
But spirits never die

In the calm of the day I feel the heat of the sunlight
These old bones may be frail now
But my mind still hates what they did to my family
And all they took from the people here
Left with nothing but memories
And fear and hunger
Playing the part
She could have been the rose in my garden of Eden

Shalom! I ease into a sleep
Shalom! And count the lives like sheep
Shalom! Our hopes go up in flames
But spirits never die

Shalom! I ease into a sleep
Shalom! And count the lives like sheep
Shalom! Our hopes go up in flames
But spirits never die

Guns of God, 'cause it's not your God
Take it away from, eliminate all of
Praise your Allah
Guns of God, giving no hope of
Draining the life out
Killing the soul of


11. OLD MAN AND THE PORTRAIT

Old man, take a look in the mirror and what do you see
Young boy, keep an eye on the side line
Life is a prison, not what you make it and somebody sentenced me
And now with the age I'm showing, nobody helps me
Look at my portrait, lines on my face
The many years, the wisdom
And you ask me is anything worth knowing?

I found no good in anyone or anything at all
And found me
Old man, take a look in the mirror and what do you see

Some people, some people think they know it all
And wherever you stand, be the soul of the place
That's what my friend used to say in so many different ways
Am I satisfied?
Yes, I'm satsfied
I found no good in anyone or anything at all, until I found me

Old man, take a look in the mirror and what do you see
Young boy, keep an eye on the side line

In spite of this, I still see
Alive in bliss, heavenly
I found no good in anyone or anything at all
Until I found me

Days are going
Days are long gone
Life ain't holding
Life's dissolving
Counting down the days
Counting the days
I pray, I pray, pray

I found no good in anyone or anything at all
Until I found me
Until I found me

Old man, take a look in the mirror
And keep an eye on the side line
Keep an eye on the side line


12. OUGHT TO BE RESTING

You ought to be resting, believe it or not
The dream is finally over, the culprit has been caught
The winds of change are blowing, a chill is in the air
And to the left and to the right, defeat rings everywhere
A flame put out with water, was suffocated first
It's freezing cold or excessive heat and it's hard to know what's worse
You're caught up in the system, it's controlling all your days
Your motioning is irrational, and your thinking out of phase
You ought to be resting...

Yet even as the dust settles you carry on
Sinning and lying and banging your drum
Nothing you can learn, just the same old you
Kicking and crying and doing your do
The first to be heard and the last to be still
Chaos and hurt is a part of the thrill
Don't really care if you're right, if you're wrong
Act like you're 12, but you're still 41

Some turn to alcohol, some turn to faith
And others stay contented knowing, good things come to those who wait
The youth, well they don't give a damn, the old too old to care
And all those in between, just be aware
There's nothing left to lose
I remain impartial
It's just good to be here
And nothing lasts forever, even fear
Even fear? Not even fear!
You ought to be resting...

And even as the dust settles you carry on
Sinning and lying and banging your drum
Nothing you can learn, just the same old you
Kicking and crying and doing your do
The first to be heard and the last to be still
Chaos and hurt is a part of the thrill
Don't really care if you're right, if you're wrong
Act like you're 12, but you're still 41

You hurt like a fool who's been just found out
Longing to know if you're in with a shout
Don't really care if you're crossing the line
I hope that you learn in the fullness of time
Most of your friends will be stabbed in the back
Not for the first time, not for the last
Could it be you in a few years to come
Learn how to fight? I would learn how to run
You better learn how to run
You ought to be resting...
You better learn how to run

It's all lies
It's all lies
You keep on telling lies
You just keep on telling lies
It's all lies
It's all lies
You keep on telling lies
You just keep on telling lies
