I went lookin for a sanctified woman
she was just the kind of woman I was hopin’ to find
I left home in the middle of December
she’s the only kind of woman could keep me in line
I found a girl just across the line in Georgia
she was livin’ by the highway in a pink doublewide
we left town in a 79 camaro
had a bag full of nothin’ and a bottle of wine

[Chorus]
Can’t you see me go up in flames
Can’t you hear me screamin’ your name
I need some redemption today
from that sanctified woman

I went back to my home in Alabama
saw my Daddy in the driveway with a tear in his eye
he said “son, what you doin’ with that woman?”
said I gotta keep on runnin’ ‘fore I run outta time

[Chorus]

I don’t even know I don’t even know
what we’re gonna do where we’re gonna go
I don’t wanna know I don’t wanna know
well we gotta go somewhere cause we sure ain’t got no home

I wanna know who invented the wheel
tell me who discovered steel
it was the wheel and the steel that caused this pain
and made the car that took her away

I wanna know who found the rock
tell me who laid the blacktop
it was the rock and the blacktop that caused this pain
and made the road for the car that took her away

I wanna know who invented the wheel

[Chorus]
Somebody give me a name
I just need someone to blame
for all of this heartache
and pain I been feelin’ since she let me go
I wanna know

I wanna know who invented the time
I didn’t spend when she was mine
it was all that time I didn’t take
before the rock and the blacktop made the highway
for the wheel and the steel and the car that took her away

[Chorus]

I wanna know who invented the wheel

Tell you I’d be home every night
breakfast in bed and we’ll never fight
say I’m wrong when I know I’m right
but baby I’d be lyin’

Only stayin’ gone for a day or two
pretendin’ I’m too good to be true
sayin’ I’d write a song about you
but baby I’d be lyin’

Everybody’s gonna tell you what to do
you can believe what you wanna believe
but let me tell you what’s the truth

[Chorus]
Baby I
I’d be lyin’
like all those two faced
back stabbin’ double talkers
tryin’ to get to you
If I could you know I would be
comin’ right back home where I belong
I’d be lyin’ next to you

Call you every day wherever I go
I swear you’re never gonna hear the word no
promise that I’ll never say I told you so
but baby I’d be lyin’
I’ll let you take your time I’ll never rush
I swear I’ll never drink too much
never think about another woman’s touch
but baby I’d be lyin’

Everybody’s gonna judge me through and through
you can believe what you wanna believe
but let me tell you what’s the truth

[Chorus]

Everybody’s gonna tell you what to do
you can believe what you wanna believe
but let me tell you what’s the truth

Callin’ home hold the phone like a lifeline
let the voices fill me up like a drunkard’s wine
another fix I’m fine
hang it up kill the light and just lay there
think about that girl we had it all I swear

Yea we thought it’d last forever
then we finalized
but no matter where I am
every night when I close my eyes

[Chorus]
Say a prayer for the little man
cause he’s gonna need a helpin’ hand
now and then and I won’t be around
can you just let me know
there’s an angel lookin’ down
say a prayer for a mother’s love
yea I hope that it’ll be enough
cause I know that it’s tough
and he don’t understand
say a prayer for the little man

I remember my daddy’s phone calls
just a kid I’d always talk to him out in the hall
to keep from settin’ mama off
so I’ve been right in your shoes son
never thought in a million years
I’d ever be the one who

Thought it’d last forever
then we finalized
But every night when I close my eyes

I can’t get the music up as loud as I want
I can’t play a big enough honky tonk
Can’t find a whiskey glass that’s quite tall enough
or that extra gear in my old truck
I’m restless baby

If I had the perfect woman I’d want twins
can’t get enough ink under my skin
I’ll burn the carton when my smokes are all through
can’t kick enough ass in these old boots

Cause I’m restless
I’m sleepless
on this quest I must go
out here searchin’
for somethin’
what it is I don’t know
might have to find it under my headstone
yes I’m restless
and I won’t rest till the restless is gone

Can’t ride enough miles in that old bus
ain’t a man in charge that I ain’t cussed
I broke the law until it’s plum busted up
how high is Heaven? I hope it’s high enough

I been around the block once or twice, baby
I never seen a girl lookin’ so nice, baby
I guess the third time makes me a fool
just like the boys in the corner
tryin’ to look so cool

You look like trouble with a capital T, baby
your kind of drama is alright with me, baby
you can make a mess of me so fine
yea you got me bait, hook, sinker and line

[Chorus]
Come on baby shake your magnolia
come on baby do what I told ya
come on baby give it all you got tonight

I would walk through flames to get to you, baby
you shook that thang I forgot my own name, baby
I guess I’ll have to stand in line
If it takes all night I’ll give you my last dime

[Chorus]
Come on baby shake your magnolia
come on baby do what mama told ya
come on baby give us all a shot tonight

That man in the mirror starin’ back at me
ain’t the man I used to see
I been walkin’ the line a long time
I need a change
Breakin’ my back workin’ double shifts
the weight of the world’s gettin’ hard to lift
I’m startin’ to think I need to break a link
in this chain

Somethin’s got to give
this ain’t no way to live

[Chorus]
Put me on a highway
the interstate
a dirt road
to anyplace
as long as I’m long gone
chasin’ down some blue skies
in my old truck
Tune the world out
Turn the radio up
Sing along to my freedom song

Well I got a good woman and she understands
every now and then her old man
needs some down time
to clear his mind and unplug
This time tomorrow you won’t see my face
there’ll be one less rat runnin’ in this race
I’ll be soothin’ my soul with a fishin’ pole
that’s what I love

[Chorus]

Well here I go again
Well here I go again
Here I go again

Well here I go again
Well here I go again
Here I go again

Now I'm into the season of summer
Tired and not really feeling
And I am like the begrudgingly awakened
For me the sun is here to spy

And all my attempts at living
Just like all of my feelings for girls
Since you
Have been faint-hearted
And ambivalent
Paralyzing

But here I go again
Well here I go again
Here I go again

Well here I go again
Well here I go again

I copped a feel
Of the wall
Trying to find the light switch in the dark
Then I got into bed and fell back asleep, quickly

Its been awhile since I played the game
I've been retired since Saturday

From the first base line I watched the blondes
So perfectly flirting
And I held my off-white flag between my knees
Limply

Its been awhile since I played the game
I've been retired since Saturday
I am a child
And I'm not ready

Its been awhile since I played the game
I've been retired since Saturday

The new feelings will rise up like fake blood in crisp October
From the cracks and the edges of the graves of our proudest moments
Because that's not a monument, it's a grave

The new feelings will probably be buried here too
But I swear there are people, I swear

The new feelings will rise up like fake blood in crisp October
From the cracks and the edges of the graves of our proudest moments
Because that's not a monument, it's a grave

Gone is the afternoon, and what did we say?

Lik two brown finches, chirp-chirp-chirp-chirping away
Gone is the afternoon, and what did we say? (Not a lot)

And we drank a two liter of Orange Crush
Yea we drank a two liter of Orange Crush

Off science hill is a fenced off lot
Your classic parking lot at the end of time

And off science hill is where I took a walk
And I heard the finches and their empty talk
Pavement turned into meadow and video tape tumbleweeds
And in the corner, like a dinosaur bone
The huge torso of a street lamp

There are elements in this day, in the day of Miami
Go forth, find them in tank top
Go forth searchin' in flip flops

Worlds collide and conquer
Annihilated in each other
Only one is victory
And neither of them are it
Only maybe i saw you just the other day
And i inherited my father's sense of dread
My head, it's been a long time gone
I wonder whether is it coming back?
Is it coming back?
A crazy man will cut his hands
And let them writhe like fish
Only maybe he'll forget
What he is staring at
Maybe did you see a bear?
My head, it's been a long time gone
I wonder whether it is it coming back?
[?] is it coming back?
I wonder whether is it coming back?
Is it coming back?
Is it coming back?
Is it coming back?

"Can they break my spirit?" Spiro Agnew said that.
But I am also saying that

When the future comes
Nudging me awake
I will look into its eyes
I will remove the socks from its feet
I will caress softly, calmly breasts
And we will quickly asleep
Though her intent was me to wake

We laid on the roof, looked at stars 'til two,
And we talked about the news.
Wasn't too much news, so we went down soon to the darkness of my room,
And naked we made it us too.
And I loved it. I loved it. I loved it. I loved it.
And naked we made it us too.
And I loved it. I loved it. I loved it. I loved it.
Now the moon's waning, and the summer's fade. and [?]
Oblique, oblique, [?]
Let it be the time that we were naked made it us too.

The trees lit from below looked like the face of those telling ghost stories.

This one talks about the big bang
Those clustered over there talk Manhattan in a good even tone

We'll content ourselves on ham and cheese,
Sit in silence and agree with the breeze.

The highway is a foggy knife
Through night time hills I stand flickering
At my brother's side
And he says words I want to hold

Seventh day adventers collide
Cry soft in the night
Metamorphose

If she sounds like you
She's your daughter

Wobbling in gray with sweaty palms
You shall be released, you shall be released

The more minutes I live
The less I can account for

The minutes I lived

And the more there is to say
The fewer the ways

And the more ways of understanding
As many as sand grains or land waves

I sit on the ridge at dusk
As the light leaves the valley by rising

Trees' fingers clutch at it
Vainly sifting the light and dying

So bleed sarcophagi romantically
Replete with dignifying reconstructive makeup

But in the headlights of those all heading home
All turned on as night came:

And flowing as a stream of bonding, unbonding molecules
Their light came

A highway arcs across my hill
Come out as dusk came down on it
The day hid it in soft dead leaves

To meet those rosy slopes
And explode into them
Before they erode

The failing time flattens out
Like the optimism of old
Whose tribulation has become rosy

My star could crest
Parabolic
Over the etched stream
And its etching

Faster than the world revolves

Spirals 'round the leaves as they fall

I'll turn faster than they in their seasons
In revolving it changes
And I don't trust the axis
Or the allies

Jolly jolly jolly ego
You fit in
You fit in, jolly, jolly, jolly

Boxed in her back pocket
Lacking love, or living saliva
Dried blood - like a wax seal, scabbing regal

A tour guide around the fields this afternoon
The field of battle lies along the riverside
Between two ridges and a cluster of low hills

Please remember:

It might be tough to see that, not so distantly
This field was theatre to a great and might way

I wish I was dead
I've got to close my eyes
I want to live
I wish I was dead

This feeling
Haunts me
Behind these eyes the shell seems so empty
Does anything live inside?

I want to live
I wish I was dead
I've got to close my eyes
I want to live
I wish I was dead

Life's cold
And it reaches inside
I reach to feel and to live
A desperate wish begins
And from the start
I can see the end

I want to live
I wish I was dead
I've got to close my eyes
I want to live
I wish I was dead

They take away the rights from all the kids

Walk down the street, I flip them off
They hit me across the head with a billy club

Nothing I do, nothing I say
I tell them to go get fucked, they put me away

Understand; we're fighting a war we can't win
They hate us, we hate them. we can't win.

Stand in line, pay bail, I may serve time

Raised a longing in the bride
Beckoning everyone in for the good news that
No one has any good reason to live

Tears of laughter did pervade
Your ambivalent behavior
Where was your diamond engaged but an instinct
Could be written over like a page
In a dead book, yeah

Whose cascading empathy
Could really reach beyond tomorrow
And when the dinner chime

When the child was just a child
It did not know what it was
Like a child it had no habits
No opinion about anything

Maybe I will get a job
Get a job as a waitress
Maybe waiting tables in a diner
In some remote city down the highway

After all that we've been through
I know we'll make it after the wait
The question is a truth
There is nothing we can't do
I'll see you along the way baby
The stillness is the move

On top of every mountain
There was a great longing
For another even higher mountain
In each city longing for a bigger city

After all that we've been through
I know that I will always love you
From now until forever baby
I can't imagine anything better

Isn't life under the sun just a crazy, crazy, crazy dream?
Isn't life just a mirage of the world before the world, before the world?
Why am I here and not over, over, over there?
Where did time begin
Where does space end
Where do you and I, where do you and I begin?

Geranium kisser
Skin like silk and face like glass
Don't confront me with my failures
Kiss me with your mouth open
For your love, better than wine
For your cologne is really fragrant
Call on me, call on me, call on me

Your hair is like an eagle
Your two eyes are like two doves
But our bed is like a failure
All day up in the valley
At the waning of the light
To the chamber that conceived me
Call on me, call on me, call on me

Geranium killer
Throat of soil of and mind like stone
Please don't defend a silver lining
Around the halo of what is already shining
When all the planets are aligning
For an afternoon that's never ending

In a shining, shining winter
Rosette in a snow globe
Write it up, clean and gold
I spread love

She is anticipating on it
Magic and old invention
Leanin' out the window
Callin' out, woah no
She sees what no one sees

Far away, with you
While every need, and water blue
We'll sail away, on this boat
Till suddenly it's new

Who made loss or whatever alone?

The renegade feelin' satisfied
You blinked and closed your eyes
You like the feeling of Saturday
You love the danger in the night

The restless corpse is collapsing wind
The breath is daffodil
What won't be coming is lapsing
Into the universal fill

Or maybe just no intention
Or maybe just no intention

When I am full with endeavor
Nothing can stop gestalt
The freshness of my reality
Makes me feel tingly and hot

When you wake up shouting "Idea!"
Is that a punishment?
You represent saying "I'm real!"
but is that what you meant?

Maybe you meant no intention
Maybe you meant no intention

No intention
No intention

In the backyard
In the living room
Residential neighborhood
I've come for you

In the margins
Of the freeway
I have sat alone and wondered
Where are you?

Yeah I want to remake the horizon
Remake the horizon

In the medicine
In the weddings
Like the cormorant in evening
I see her silhouette
In the market
In the parking lot
In the uniform
You're nowhere now

Yeah I want to remake the horizon
Remake the horizon

Tossed aside the mirrored life
Echo it out, echo it out

Yeah I want to remake the horizon
Remake the horizon

When I've had enough, when I've heard enough from police and pretenders
When I'm ready for my whole world to open up and surrender
I'll look for you, I will be searching the garden and the street
I will look into the eyes of everyone I meet

And when I finally find you, will I know?
Fluorescent half dome, fluorescent half dome, fluorescent half dome

Far beyond here, far removed from the sneering of the crowd
My eternal love sits smiling, sphinx-like and proud
Cross that disguise, I am glancing with needles in my eyes
Birds of infinity glisten, shimmering for the rest of my life
And I conceived them, not what they mean

Fluorescent half dome, fluorescent half dome
Fluorescent half dome, fluorescent half dome

Fluorescent half dome, fluorescent half dome
Fluorescent half dome, fluorescent half dome

All my senses rebel
Under the scrutiny of their persistent gaze
It took a lifetime to get here
A journey I'll never make again

For those who have accepted the burden of shame
For the innocent only guilt will remain
And our lives will be forced to accommodate
The perpetrators of our own bastard race

All my senses rebel
Under the scrutiny of their persistent gaze
It took a lifetime to get here
A journey I'll never make again

I stand accused of a thousand and one crimes
A witness to events that led to this present time
These traditions which bind our hands and keep us tied
Will never survive the greatest test of time

Deliver me from all these feverish eyes
That threaten to unbalance my state of mind
For I must confess only to the smallest of crimes

A sense of guilt
A sense of guilt
A sense of guilt
A sense of guilt

Please, go after him,
'Cause he delayed them there.
I see the proud man.

He delayed to see them all.
All have stayed,
The bloodstains on the floor.

He left, he's left.
He's gone today,
He's gone back,
He's gone back.
I just want to make him understand,
Teach another lesson,
Make them go and see the proud man.

From ancient times to the present day
There have been those who have claimed her as a lover
So driven by the will to possess
Have pursued her to the very ends of the earth

We enter into it, it enters into us
We enter into it, it enters into us
As the wheel spins and turns
The fortunate ones are seen to emerge
We enter into it, it enters into us

Fortune smiles upon our heads
Mistakenly we cling to her warm embrace
How easily we seem to forgive and forget
I'm lost in the security of our new found wealth

There are those of you amongst us
Bearing vacant faces and empty smiles
Their fates have already been decided upon
They will leave behind them only the victims of their misplaced trust

We enter into it, it enters into us
We enter into it, it enters into us
As the wheel spins and turns
The fortunate ones are seen to emerge
We enter into it, it enters into us

Fortune smiles upon our heads
Mistakenly we cling to her warm embrace
How easily we seem to forgive and forget
I'm lost in the security of our new found wealth

Fortune smiles upon our heads
Fortune smiles upon our heads

I was told this in a distant land
Where tortured souls have to fight together in anguish
And the scenes of the show
Are of a cruel and violent nature

Scenes of pain and cruelty
Are there to be seen
The arena, the town, the place was set
For all to watch and see

I was told this in a distant land
Where the oppressor ruled with an iron hand
And the mission of saddened complacency
Left cold and emotionless by history

Scenes of pain and cruelty
Are there to be seen
All the while I should have known
It was you killing me

Somewhere east of Eden
The designs will never change
Vented through others' fear
The world stops at the end of the hall

We watch the life force fade away
And that's the price we shall have to pay

Once you are dead
How could the children have known

These silent chances pass one by
Who never knew of them at all
Resigned to the hands of fate
We await her impending beck and call

Until we return, paradise interred
Spread your golden wings, let the sails unfurl
Until we return, paradise interred
Spread your golden wings, let the fires burn

These silent chances pass one by
Who never knew of them at all
Resigned to the hands of fate
We await her impending beck and call

Until we return, paradise interred
Spread your golden wings, let the sails unfurl
Until we return, paradise interred
Spread your golden wings, let the sails unfurl

Well, opportunity's doors did not open wide
The answers remain locked away inside
Locked away inside
Locked away inside
Locked away inside
Locked away inside

So forced into labour we till the earth
To sow the seeds of our own rebirth
As the days turned into years
Our faith overcame any doubts or fears
Any doubts or fears
Are there any doubts or fears?
any doubts or fears
Are there any doubts or fears?

In truth we had found the key
But its application would unravel this mystery
This mystery
This mystery
This mystery

Wild in the woods of love
We harm those whom we adore
And contrary to all good intentions
We suffocate them in an alarming embrace

Listen, child, try to understand
All is not what it appears to be in the world at hand
Here dreams are bought and sold for a price
The truth a burden to keep for the rest of your life

These paths that we have chosen
Can only lead to fear and despair
So we learn from and experience the corporeal
All is hidden in hidden meanings
All can be learned from within
We're all brothers and sisters in spirit

Wild in the woods of love
We harm those whom we adore
And contrary to all good intentions
We suffocate them in an alarming embrace

Sail on silver wings
Through this storm what fortune love may bring
Back to my arms again
The love of a former golden age

I am disabled by fears
Concerning which course to take
For now that wheels are turning
I find my faith deserting me

This night is filled with the cries
Of dispossessed children in search of paradise
A sign of unresolved ambition
Drives the pinwheel on and on

I am disabled by fears
Concerning which course to take
When memory bears witness to
The innocents consumed in dying rage

The way lies through our love
There can be no other means to the end
Or keys to my heart you will never find
You will never find

Here in the garden of the arcane delights
Dark shadows overwhelm us and we become blind
Blind to the needs of those who would be free
From the grip of fear and the prisons of the mind

Amidst the throes of perplexity
Phobia moves amongst us, in her hand is held the seed
Extermination angel stood beside the road
In violent retribution for the seeds that we have sown

Sail to the stars
On your shining desires

"Reasons? There are none"
Cried the whisky laden brain
"When all is said and done
It amounts to just the same"

There in your starry eyes
Lie hopes that have been betrayed

The cause of your desire
Can also lead to your demise
When all is said and done
It will be you who pays the price

As countless fools
Are often loathe to testify
"It's an illusion of life
The whole cause of our demise"

Sail to the stars
On your shining desires

Lucretia waits in vain
For the child of her dreams
Within her aching womb
There burns a funeral pyre

There in your starry eyes
Lie hopes that have been betrayed

The prize that you claim
Can never be yours to take
Like castles in Spain
Hope is all that will remain

Abstain from the fools paradise
It's an illusion of life
The whole cause of our desire

(As countless) fools
Are often loathe to testify
"It's an illusion of life
The whole cause of our demise"

Contemplate the world
And its traitors to the soul
The forces of derision
And its legions manifold

Usurpers of the crown
All pretenders to the throne
Your world is linked in chains
"All in one, one in all"

All in one, one in all
All in one, one in all
All in one, one in all
All in one, one in all

All in one, one in all
All in one, one in all
All in one, one in all
All in one, one in all

(As countless) fools
Are often loathe to testify
"It's an illusion of life
The whole cause of our demise"

It's an illusion of life
It's an illusion of life
It's an illusion of life
It's an illusion of life

Renounce all fear

Renounce all fears

Saloman hung down her head
Laid bare her heart
For the world to see
She craved for intimacy
Through darkened doors
Her aspect veiled with indecision
Gazed out to sea
She craved lucidity

Cast adrift
Fom past relationships in her life
Hoisted up the ideal
This was her saving grace
Seas of rage that once assailed
Her concern for the truth
Had passed her by
And left her high and dry

In her saviour's arms
In her saviour's arms
In her saviour's arms
In her saviour's arms

Across the sea
Lies the fountain of renewal
Where you will see
The whole cause of your loneliness
Can be measured in dreams
That transcend all these lies
And I wish and I pray
That there may come a day

For a saviour's arms
For a saviour's arms
For a saviour's arms
For a saviour's arms

In the hour of darkness
Our worlds collide
Assailed by madness
That has plagued our lives
At the point of departure
On the eve of despair
Your recourse to reason
Seems to make no sense at all

The light of hope
Shines in your eyes
Dementia has gone
Purged from inside

Throughout our wanderings
In a land of lies
We fell from god's grace
Into a sea of storms
In the self renovation
Celebration of love
These both are virtues
We seem to have left behind

The light of hope
Shines in your eyes
Dementia has gone
Purged from inside

The light of hope
Shines in your eyes
Dementia has gone
Purged from inside

Lay bare your heart
Induce the will of love
To restore what little faith
That you may have lost
As morning brings rebirth a new day will dawn
To ease our troubled minds
Turn away on your side
And dream of days to come

In times of great vexation
When one must choose between what's right and wrong
Freedom so they say
Amounts to the choices you have made

Through all the arbitrary
Rationale concerning liberty
Freedom I must say
Exists within unconditioned minds

Reason has come of age

How can you be satisfied with things the way they are
When all that surrounds us now and so much more
Remains inside the keeper's dark embrace?

The insatiable thirst for power has made
Idols out of mortals, gods into clay
Soldiers into heroes, children into slaves
All damned desires, their hopes betrayed

Who will suffer the laws
That state can decide
Your child's education
Unless you pay the price?

Who will suffer the laws?
Who will suffer their minds?
Who will suffer their words?
Who will suffer their designs?

Who will suffer the laws?
Who will suffer their minds?
Who will suffer their words?
Who will suffer their designs?

We scale the face of reason
To find at least one sign
That could reveal the true dimensions
Of life lest we forget

And maybe it's easier to withdraw from life
With all of it's misery and wretched lies
Away from harm

We lay by cool still waters
And gazed into the sun
And like the moth's great imperfection
Succumbed to her fatal charm

Any maybe it's me who dreams unrequited love
The victim of fools who watch and stand in line
Away from harm

In our vain pursuit
Of life for one's own end
Will this crooked path
Ever cease to end?

Hey, Patrice, don't cry
They've no reason to harm you at all
They don't realise
That the angels surround you with light

They don't understand
Their narrow ways defeat them where they stand
They don't realise
You hide your sadness beneath a painted smile

Ignorance
That light of fools steers a wayward path
And sets the course
Upon which we sail into the night of uncertainty

Following the stars
That make their way across the sky
Valuing the love
That lends grace to our hearts we sail

Your vagrancy's a familiar tale
Fraught with danger
The lives you led were judged profane

Hatred enfolds us
Inculcates the minds with its heresy
Laymen enfold us
Clemency arrive to set you free

Faith, although Xavier has prayed
That life-giving waters may rain
Down on the souls of men
To cure them of their ways

These were the sins of Xavier's past
Hung like jewels in the forest of veils
Deep in the heart where the mysteries emerge
Eve bears the stigma of original sin

Freedom's so hard
When we are all bound by laws
Etched in the scheme of nature's own hand
Unseen by all those who fail
In their pursuit of fate

Faith, although Xavier has prayed
That life-giving waters may rain
Down on the souls of man
To cure them of their ways

And as the night turns into day
Will the sun illuminate your way
Or will your nightmares come home to stay?
Xavier's love lies in chains

These were the sins of Xavier's past
Hung like jewels in the forest of veils

Severance, the birds of leaving call to us
Yet here we stand endowed with the fear of flight
Over land the winds of change consume the land
While we remain in the shadow of summers now past

When all the leaves have fallen and turned to dust
Will we remain entrenched within our ways?
Indifference, the plague that moves throughout this land
Omen signs in the shapes of things to come

Tomorrow's child is the only child
Tomorrow's child is the only child

If it were within, within our power
Beyond the reach of slavish pride
To no longer harbour grievances
Behind the mask's opportunist's facade

We could welcome the responsibility
Like a long lost friend
And re-establish laughter
In the dolls house once again

For time has imprisoned us
In the order of our years
In the discipline of our ways
And in the passing of momentary stillness

We can see our chaos in motion
Our chaos in motion
We can see our chaos in motion
View our chaos in motion

And the subsequent collisions of fools
Well versed in the subtle art of slavery

John Francis Dooley
Wipe the sleep from your eyes
And embrace the light
You have slept now
For a thousand years
Beneath starless nights
And now it's time for you
To renounce the old ways
And see a new dawn rise

In former days
Masks were raised
When the god came down
From off of the mountain
And the sacrifice was made
For he knew the day of wrath
Was fast approaching
Just like yesterday before the war

John Francis Dooley
The scapegoat has run
All our sins are disowned
And now it's time for you
To take off your mask
And cross the Rubicon

If you and I were one
Within the eyes of our designs
It would still not change
The fact of our leaving
For tonight we must leave
With the first gentle breeze
For the Isles Of Ken
We are assailing

Just like Ullyses
On an open sea
On an odyssey
Of self discovery

Fortune presents gifts
Not according to the book
Fortune presents gifts
Not according to the book

When you expect whistles it's flutes
When you expect flutes it's whistles

What various paths are followed
In distributing honours and possessions
She gives awards to some
And penitent's cloaks to others

When you expect whistles it's flutes
When you expect flutes it's whistles

Sometimes she robs the chief goatherd
Of his cottage and goat pen
And to whomever she fancies
The lamest goat has born two kids

When you expect whistles it's flutes
When you expect flutes it's whistles

Because in a village a poor lad
Has stolen one egg
He swings in the sun
And another gets away with a thousand crimes

When you expect whistles it's flutes
When you expect flutes it's whistles

Murderer!
Man of fire
Murderer!
I've seen the eyes of living dead
It's the same game, survival
The great mass play
A waiting game
Embalmed, crippled
Dying in fear of pain
All sense of freedom gone

Black sun in a white world
Like having a black sun in a white world

I have a son
His name is Eden
It's his birthright
Beyond estranged times

Give me sixty nine years
Another season in this hell
It's all sex and death
As far as eyes can tell
Like Prometheus we are bound
Chained to this rock
Of a brave new world
Our god forsaken lot

And I feel
That's all we have ever needed to know
Till worlds end and the seas run cold

Give me sixty nine years
Another season in this hell
There is sex and death
In mother nature's plans
Like Prometheus we are bound
Chained to this rock
Of a brave new world
Our god forsaken lot

I thought that you knew it all
Well you've seen it ten times before.
I thought that you had it down
With both your feet on the ground.
I love slow...slow but deep.
Feigned affections wash over me.
Dream on my dear
And renounce temporal obligations.
Dream on my dear
It's a sleep from which you may not awaken.

You build me up then you knock me down.
You play the fool while I play the clown.
We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
You raise my hopes then you raise the odds
You tell me that I dream too much
Now I'm serving time in disillusionment.

I don't believe you anymore...I don't believe you.

I thought that I knew it all
I'd seen all the signs before.
I thought that you were the one
In darkness my heart was won.

You build me up then you knock me down.
You play the fool while I play the clown.
We keep time to the beat of an old slave drum.
You raise my hopes then you raise the odds
You tell me that I dream too much
Now I'm serving time in a domestic graveyard.

I don't believe you anymore...I don't believe you.

Never let it be said I was untrue
I never found a home inside of you.
Never let it be said I was untrue
I gave you all my time.

I sat within the valley green
I sat me with my true love
My sad heart strove the two between
The old love and the new love
The old for her the new that made
Me think on Ireland dearly
While soft the wind blew down the glade
And shook the golden barley

T'was hard the woeful words to frame
To break the ties that bound us
But harder still to bear the shame
Of foreign chains around us
And so I said the mountain glen
I'll meet at morning early
And I'll join the bold united men
While soft winds shook the barley

T'was sad I kissed away her tears
My fond arm round her flinging
When a foeman's shot burst on our ears
From out the wild woods ringing
A bullet pierced my true love's side
In life's young spring so early
And on my breast in blood she died
While soft winds shook the barley

But blood for blood without remorse
I've taken at Oulart Hollow
I've lain my true love's clay like corpse
Where I full soon must follow
Around her grave I've wandered drear
Noon, night and morning early
With breaking heart when e'er I hear
The wind that shakes the barley

Outside the storm clouds gathering
Moved silently along the dusty boulevard
Where flowers turning crane their fragile necks
So they can in turn reach up and kiss the sky

They're driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye
Someone's calling

I remember when you held my hand
In the park we would play
When the circus came to town
Look over here

Outside the circus gathering
Moved silently along the rain swept boulevard
The procession moved on, the shouting is over
The fabulous freaks are leaving town

They're driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye
Someone's calling

The carnival is over

We sat and watched
As the moon rose
For the very first time

Farewell now, my sister
Up ahead there lies your road
And your conscience walks beside you
It's the best friend you'll ever know

And the past is now your future
It bears witness to your soul
Make sure that the love you offer up
Does not fall on barren soil

For the wind cries of late
In the whispering grass
Our way of life is held
In the spinning wheels of chance

I believe
In the way of long ago
And the sands I believe
Rose long ago

And we're changing our ways
Yes, we're taking on different roads
Tell me more about the forest
That you once called home

For the wind cries of late
In the whispering leaves
And the sun will turn to waste
The heavens we built above

Father, teach your children
To treat our mother well
If we give her back her diamonds
She will offer up her pearl

We must sing her creation's song
Show them all
Invoke the spirits that feed us
This dreaming takes too long

But I'm not bitter
No, I'm surviving
To face the world
To raise the future

So why don't you tell me
Come on and tell me
About the world you left behind
Can you tell me?

You saw sagacious Solomon
You know what came of him
To him complexities seemed plain
He cursed the hour that gave birth to him
And saw that everything was vain
How great and wise was Solomon
The world however didn't wait
But soon observed what followed on
It's wisdom that had brought him to this state
How fortunate the man with none
How fortunate the man with none

You saw courageous Caesar next
You know what he became
They deified him in his life
Then had him murdered just the same
And as they raised the fatal knife
How loud he cried: you too, my son
The world however didn't wait
But soon observed what followed on
It's courage that had brought him to that state
How fortunate the man with none
How fortunate the man with none

You heard of honest Socrates
The man who never lied
They weren't so grateful as you'd think
Instead the rulers fixed to have him tried
And handed him the poisoned drink
How honest was the people's noble son
The world however didn't wait
But soon observed what followed on
It's honesty that brought him to that state
How fortunate the man with none
How fortunate the man with none

Here you can see respectable folk
Keeping to God's own laws
So far he hasn't taken heed
You who sit safe and warm indoors
Help to relieve our bitter need
How virtuously we had begun
The world however didn't wait
But soon observed what followed on
It's fear of God that brought us to that state
How fortunate the man with none
How fortunate the man with none

When a foeman's shot burst on our ears
From out the wild woods ringing
A bullet pierced my true love's side
In life's young spring so early
And on my breast in blood she died
While soft winds shook the barley

But blood for blood without remorse
I've taken at Oulart Hollow
I've lain my true love's clay like corpse
Where I full soon must follow
Around her grave I've wandered drear
Noon, night and morning early
With breaking heart when e'er I hear
The wind that shakes the barley

I am stretched on your grave
And will lie there forever
With your hands held in mine
I'd be sure we'd not sever
My apple tree, my brightness
'Tis time we were together
For I smell of the earth
And am stained by the weather

When my family thinks
That I'm safe in my bed
From night until morning
I am stretched at your head
Calling out to the air
With tears both hot and wild
Oh I grieve for the girl
That I loved as a child

The priests and the friars
Behold me in dread
Because I still love you
My love, and you're dead
And would still be your shelter
From rain and from storm
But with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm

Ever loved a woman
Who made you feel tall?
Ever loved a man
Who made you feel small?

If you were a sailor
I'd raise the anchor
To sail the sea
In search of you and me

And god conjures currents
To break our fragile boats
And both the innocent and the damned
Are swallowed up in his wake

If you were a huntress
I'd be your bow
For your silver arrows
To seek out his heart

Ever loved a woman
Who made you feel tall?
Ever loved a man
Who made you feel small?

Who are you to complain
For lack of understanding?
We are all created equal
In just one thing alone

Alone in your thoughts
That consume you through your life
They'll take you outwards
To the dark edge of time

And there's nothing more dangerous
Than a man with nothing to lose
Nothing to live for
And nothing to prove

I need my conscience to keep watch over me
To protect me from myself
So I can wear honesty like a crown on my head
When I walk into the promised land

We've been too long American dreaming
I think we've all lost the way
Forlorn somnambulistic maniacal
In the dark

I'm in love with an American girl
Well, she's my best friend
I love her surreptitious smile
That hides the pain within her

And we'll go dancing in the rings of laughter
And leave alone by the shores
Feel alone in the brands of rapture
And leave alone for the loss

Yeah, on the lea the rising wind blows
Yeah, on the lea the rising wind blows
How long? How long?

Here alone on the grounds of allegiances
We've left behind
Turned back by the foot of the doorway
Never lost and found

We've been too long American dreaming
I think we've all lost the heart
Forlorn somnambulistic maniacal
In the dark

Yeah, on the lea the rising wind blows
Yeah, on the lea the rising wind blows
How long? How long?

Don't fade away
My brown eyed girl
Come walk with me
I'll fill your heart with joy

And we'll dance through our isolation
Seeking solace in the wisdom we bestow
Turning thoughts to the here and ever after
Consuming fears in our fiery halos

Say what you mean
Mean what you say
I've heard that innocence
Has led us all astray

But don't let them make you and break you
The world is filled with their broken empty dreams
Silence is their only virtue
Locked away inside their silent screams

But for now let us dance away this starry night
Filled with the glow of fiery stars
And with the dawn our sun will rise
Bringing a symphony of bird cries

Don't bring me down now
Let me stay here for a while
You know life's too short
Let me bathe here in your smile

I'm transcending
The fall from the garden

Goodnight

We are the stars which sing
We sing with our light
We are the birds of fire
We fly over the sky

Our light is a voice
We make a road for the spirit to pass over
For the spirit to pass over

[Algonquian Indian]

We are like the wind
Wrapped in lumious wings
We make a road for the spirit to pass over
For the spirit of pass over

Outò, give me your sound

The river is deep and the road is long
Daylight comes and I want to go home

Awoke this morning
To find my people's tongues were tied
And in my dreams
They were given books to poison their minds

The river is deep and the mountain high
How long before the other side?

We are their mortar
Their building bricks and their clay
Their gold teeth mirror
Both our joys and our pain

The river is deep and the ocean wide
Who will show us how to read the signs?

The earth is our mother
She taught us to embrace the light
Now the lord is master
She suffers an eternal night

You blocked up my ears
You plucked out my eyes
You cut out my tongue
You fed me with lies

Oh lord
Oh lord
Oh lord
Oh lord

We are ancients
As ancient as the sun
We came from the ocean
Once our ancestral home
So that one day
We could all return
To our birthright
The great celestial dome

We are the children of the sun
Our journey's just begun
Sunflowers in our hair
We are the children of the sun
There is room for everyone
Sunflowers in our hair

Throughout the ages
Of iron, bronze, and stone
We marvelled at the night sky
And what may lie beyond
We burned offerings
To the elemental ones
Made sacrifices
For beauty, peace and love

We are the children of the sun
Our kingdom will come
Sunflowers in our hair
We are the children of the sun
Our carnival's begun
Our songs will fill the air

And you know it's time
To look for reasons why
Just reach up and touch the sky
To the heavens we'll ascend
We are the children of the sun
Our journey has begun

All the older children
Come out at night
Anaemic, soulless
Great hunger in their eyes
Unaware of the beauty
That sleeps tonight

And all the queen's horses
And all the king's men
Will never put these children back
Together again

Faith, hope, our charities
Greed, sloth, our enemies

We are the children of the sun
We are the children of the sun

Saw the demonstration
On remembrance day
Lest we forget the lesson
Enshrined in funeral clay
History is never written
By those who've lost
The defeated must bear witness to
Our collective memory loss

With every generation comes
Another memory lapse
See the demonstrations of
Failing to learn from our past
We live in the dreamtime
Nothing seems to last
Can you really plan a future
When you no longer have a past

Memories fall from the trees
Amnesia
Memories like autumn leaves

If we are subject to
Empirical minds
I wonder what lies beyond
Our memory's confines
If memory is the true
Sum of who we are
May your children know the truth
And shine like the brightest star

Memory, help me see
Amnesia
Memory, set me free

All my love and all my kisses
Sweet Mnemosyne
All my love and all my kisses
Sweet Mnemosyne
Sweet Mnemosyne

Sometimes
I feel like I want to live
Far from the metropolis
Just walk through that door
Sometimes
I feel like I want to fly
Reach out to the painted sky
A prisoner to the wind
A bird on the wing

Sometimes
I feel the ocean in my blood
See rain from the sky above
Her salt brined tears
And now
Those tears leave taste on my tongue
Like the warm rush you get from
Black opium
Black opium

Sometimes
I feel like I want to leave
Behind all these memories
And walk through that door
Outside
The black night calls my name
But all roads look the same
They lead nowhere
They lead nowhere

All your ships
Have left their moorings
Cast adrift
On the Sargasso Sea
Waiting for the wind
To set your sails free

When you reach
The end of your rainbow
Chasing shadows
And down on your luck
Look for the sign
Look for a sign

As you rise to the very top
Of your mountain
Just remember those
Poor lost souls
On their way down

You taught me patience
Was a virtue
I took my time
Let Nature take her cause
All was revealed
All in good time

Turn back your clocks
Open up your memories
Beneath the veil
Where time stands still
You showed me a sign
You showed me the sign

Tell me, baby,
Tell where did you sleep last night
I heard noises in the cupboard
Were you trying to hide?

'Cause you should know,
How much I hate this
If you were I'll hit your hiding place
'til sunrise

And I'm falling in love
And I'm falling in love
'Cause I need your loving
Every day and every night
And I'm falling in love

It enters your soul
It tries to obsess you
It looks for defaults
Try not to lose not to lose control

It tries to destroy you
It tries to tear you down
Am I lost lost in your backyard
Feel the pain
Yellow takes over

Growing in your mind
Can't do a thing 'bout it
Living a normal life

Barabas...

Can't remember
The first light
Must have been something enormous
I'd give anything to travel into time

Nunca le preocupa lo que puede pasarle a su hijo
Aunque las cosas no le van demasiado bien
Separado de ella por las cuatros años
Ve a sus hijos los fines de semana de cada mes y quince días en vacaciones
Pero el solo no consigue encontrar a la mujer de su vida

Saw her in the mirror
She has a stupid name
Maybe I'm too honest
Friendly in an arrogant way

Saturday evening she gave me her number
I've lost it already she awakens my hunger

Suffocate your love
In a barrel full of doubt
Suffocate your love
North, east and south

Here I stand
In front of your imagination
Here I stand...

Hesitate, it's normal
You can't erase mistakes
Hesitate, it's normal
I can't keep awake

Come closer
It's you I want to embrace
Come much closer
It's you I wanna debase

In my head consulting
But my innervoice it says
That I'm falling, I'm falling
Could you be the pillow
That solves this problem

Close my eyes and trust you

Battersea how it is
It's over forget
Memories full of chocolate
I've got to get over it forget
Your world is different than mine
I've got to get over I've got to forget
And "sgurd" is the one I don't like
I'm afraid of him I've got to forget

Knocking on the blue water
It's over forget
Praline and chocolate ice
Got to get over, forget
Your world doesn't match with mine
I've got to get over I've got to forget
And "sgurd" rules your friend's life
I'm afraid of him I've got to forget

Concentrate, you're on the middle
Of this one way ride
In the center lays the key
To get back off to a while
If you can't solve this riddle
I'm afraid you'll have to stay
In the [?]
Of underestimated betrayal

See them point in your direction
See the indifference in their eyes
Just living in oblivion
Struggling with too many wires
So you've got to solve this riddle
Other wise you won't get back
So if I were you
I would concentrate on the morbid one way track

Won't you translate fun

Won't you be my dictionary
Can't I be very necessary

Satellites they mix you up
And hypnotise you with the sound
Reproducing would fuck you up
And make you forget what you found

There's no difference for us

Your heart's some trust

Let's open it

Cut out

Be gentle

Overwhelming as they are
Breeding hope by counting stars
Merge the bitterness the pain
Which I'm sure
You can explain again

One gets hurt when she feels small
(And she's longing for some peace)
Beeing the center of it all
(Slow attack but fast release)
Hear the difference in vain
Out of tune but just not quite the same

Overwhelming as they are
(With their mistifying glow)
Breeding hope by counting stars
(As they hunger for the show)
Hear the difference in vain

Sweet relief calms me down
Makes me drown
Lost and found
Neighbours complain
Sheets are stained
Hotel shower
The best around

Spacing from Paris to New York
Silver sunglasses
Silver phone
Connect us to someone
Who doesn't know
About these feelings we can't control

People they want us to fall down
But we won't ever
Touch the ground
'Cause we're perfectly balanced
We'll float around
'Til noone is near
Do you hear this sound

Spacing from Paris to New York

It generates this huge fuzz
I miss you all the time I must face
I miss your touch and your embrace
