A fade so simple

Bound to say that

Bruise

Building a wall from the past

Burnt

Chasing chimera

Cure

Darling

Don't blame the weather

Faith in another

Falling down

I am

Inspire

Little things

Lunatic in a dressing gown

Masquerade

May we be forgiven

Mother blue

Niebieski

No place home

Open your eyes

Please

Spread yourself flat

Why should i work for you

Worship the world forget the people

Would you laugh at that

You beautifully try

 

Fade into my bedroom angel
Put me to sleep
Open hearted bedclothes
Never fade with dreams
The heat is in the embers when the flame has gone

Fade into my bedroom angel
You hold my dreams
For the longest moment
Finding something simple to keep
Keep myself asleep

What’s new my dear?
Why do you seem cold?
Bring in your thoughts or a memory
For when we grow old

My bedroom Angel
It’s hard to believe
Our time is of boundaries broken
Still finding something simple to keep
Keep myself asleep

What’s new my dear?
Why do you seem cold?
Bring in your thoughts or a memory
For when we grow old

I thank you for your offer
Thank you for your time
It’s something so simple
Something so sweet

And you were bound to say that
You are bound to love again
Broken hearts don’t lose pieces
When we shatter them

So this is where falling
Comes into love
It’s tripping and stumbling
Not roses and doves
Taxi talk and static on the radio home
This would all be easier if you stayed alone,

And you can’t
Go through this again
No you can’t
Go through this again

And you were bound to say that
You are bound to love again
Broken hearts don’t lose pieces
When we shatter them

This is not freedom
Living alone
It’s a prison of comfort
Not really a home
And you really loved them it was easy to tell,
They said they loved you, but never how well

And you can’t
Go through this again
No you can’t
Go through this again

And you were bound to say that
You are bound to love again
Broken hearts don’t lose pieces
When we shatter them

When Tempers Flair
When the timid soul extends its arms to take you hold
When Sleeping dogs are shaken from their lying mould
I try and shade my heart

From the flying hate
That wraps itself around a word that never fails
It pierces through the moment there’s no turning from
I try and shade my heart

You raise your questionable aim
You try and beat the answers out my soul
And so I stay

When tempers Flair
When the smallest move can make the longest destiny
Wide eyed and hoping trouble doesn’t break your wing
I try and shade my heart

From the flying hate
That wraps itself around a word that never fails
It pierces through the moment there’s no turning from
I try and shade my heart

And so I stay

Your will was mine to keep
My will is yours to keep

You raise your questionable aim
You try and beat the sense out of me
Your fear is burning deep into my eyes

My Heart is left open by the door
To be taken
Exposed by naïve morality
Wounds still open

My Name was hung clearly on my door
To be whispered
Your honest eyes fell softly on my soul
And my mind fell with them

And I wonder
If I’m finally safe in the words that surround me
And the truth is something that I don’t have to rise above to believe
The stones once thrown
Are now building a wall from the past

My flowers are dry by the door
Never dieing
Frozen in a living memory
Shared only by two

And I wonder
If I’m finally safe in the words that surround me
And the truth is something that I don’t have to rise above to believe
The stones once thrown
Are now building a wall from the past

The passing landscape changes for a final time
No guarantee of hurt or doubt remain
The cutting tears I once knew are no longer mine
They break, and fade with every year

Hello you, nice to finally meet you
Do you know who I am?
Flight of fancy brought us together
At least for a while

Hold me
Gently

Capture my soul my friend
Let your smile live on ever after
Capture my soul pretend we will find hope
Capture my soul my friend
Dry your eyes now fill them with laughter
Capture my soul pretend we will find hope

Hello you, serpents out to protect you
He made me grin none the less though
Peaceful existence burning past lives together
At least for a while

Same eyes

Same hands

Same breath

Same warmth

Same dreams

Same passion

So nice to meet you. x

Staring at a fragment of vitality in a small box
In which a new world may exist
I am invited but can’t seem to find the doorway
Can’t seem to find my way?

But one thing I know your vibrations enthral me
And your smile excites me
That’s for sure.

Captivating honesty
Enraptured in your entity
So Sincere
Let us talk for hours
Dance for hours.

What if I forgot your birthday?
What if I forgot your name?
What if I forgot how to listen?
What if I forgot how to breathe?

You may know me in one reality
But if you met me
Maybe things would be different
I am conscious that when we meet it may not be
All doves and roses or the perfection
That I mention.

What if I forgot how to breathe?
How to breathe?
How to breathe?

Religion is sold and stories written
A tale within its nature smitten
To be the home of all hypocrisy

As if your matter really matters
Science fact is torn to shatters
Subconsciously it makes no sense to me

Finding good in this disease
We find it so hard that we begin to bleed
Parting ways respectfully
We find it so hard to heed morality

Emotions caged by your compassion
Family values far out of fashion
Why do you let them keep your dignity?

The fire it burns inside so brightly
Seems such a shame to lose the nightly
Passion along the road to destiny

Finding good in this disease
We find it so hard that we begin to bleed
Parting ways respectfully
We find it so hard to heed morality

Find a cure for the redemption
Better for the heart and soul
Trading places with redemption
Better the truth to take it all

Found a cure for this disease
Found a cure for this disease

Hey little darling why do you ever want to follow me
Hey little person why do you ever want to follow me

When i see crows come calling
Heed that warning that i may take your dreams so bold
You can see wondrous mornings
No dark clouds forming
Maybe in time I won’t feel so alone.


Remembering past times smiling
Essence arising
May i take heed your sweet seeds sown
I miss your beauty blinding
Soul spellbinding
I should accept your hearts not alone.

I feel tired. I feel cold. I’m afraid. Know you know.

I’m in pain.

The ice took him wide on the corner and the Lorry took him out
At the funeral I thought I saw his wife smile from the corner of her mouth
She says ‘ the money will come in handy I could really use a holiday '
I will probably miss him but I won’t blame the weather for taking him away.

Don’t blame the weather for taking him away.


And you can ask why me?
And you can ask why me?
Why not?


It was the beauty of the sunshine, acceleration over the rise
Golden friction off the windscreen took the light from his eyes
He really was a nice man, that’s easy to say
When the world has to keep turning
You can’t blame the weather for what happened yesterday

Can’t blame the weather it happened yesterday.

Why, tell a lie today?
If situation differs was it right to betray?

Why, do you cry today?
The seeds you sow early doors are keeping you at bay.

And I, I need to tell a friend my walls are closing in
I need to comprehend what I’m imagining
What I’m imagining
I’m imagining.

Why, say goodbye today?
Wave your hand in motion, really wish you could stay.

Why, you may die today?
Listen your dreams will wake your heart amazing come what may.

Take a car or a bus or a train
Keep on the ground stay away from the planes
If you find yourself running
Don’t stop to pray

Leave your TV it will save your soul
If you think your gonna miss it
You can take the control
That’s if you can find it anyway

They’re banging on the walls
And they’re banging on the door
No help from your neighbours
That’s what your neighbours are for

I want to run but she won’t come with me
It’s all
Falling down

I want to run but she won’t come with me
It’s all
Falling down

There were angels in the architecture
Little battles of will
But they all flew away
No one wants to see an angel get killed

Everyone’s a hero
You just have to survive
They all thought they were heroes
But I guess they all lied
They were the first to go

I want to run but she won’t come with me
It’s all
Falling down

So it’s blinding through your window
And it’s seeping through your pores
But out on the bandstand they’re still dancing
All the sirens ignored

For the life of me
I caught a catch of something
New to what’s old
Carving scripts in the cold

I pushed my eyes up.
To meet a gaze of stone
What the hell is going on?
I have a mind of my own.


I dream that they might listen
To words that people christen
In my soul
But fortunately I am

I’m not that ordinary
I am the one and only
In my soul
But fortunately I am.

Been Crazy for weeks
Diving the chorus down
You had to be there
To carry on the sound
Twelve years it’s been
You pushed and carried the love
Thinking of you
I turn on the crowd.

Now im all alone, everybody's gone
Feeling much too low, I walk the streets alone.

Living society
As meaningless empty democracy
Led to a tortured mind.

Far into the arms of a dancing dream
With so much passion that happiness came five fold
And a spark was lit to lead me here.

That concrete period that broke my axle
Embedded the need for my existence
There is no coincidence there.

I gave into the stubborn grin of a Brasilian
Her claws sank deeply
With a heart as black as mine it was the lightest darkness in which I have been.


Let fate fantasise
Hold you decide
Please let me inspire

Let fate compromise
Hold deep inside
Please let me inspire.

Comes from within let it begin
Let it go please let me go.

Yesterday goes such a blink through
Things didn't even go like they meant to
But ill get by.

Night was young got off on the wrong shoe.
My eyes were purple haze when I met you
No room to hide.

Drunk once more
White lines I adore but I know I will grow.

Invincible and more as in folklore

Inhibitions thrown out the back door

Things that make me high.


Is this real
Not on my own
Is this real
Or am I alone.


Mood has changed the song is arising
World is here and im hypnotising
Begin to fly.
To feed I search I don't need no whore

Round and round I walk no more
Because now I glide.

Dance and smile
That extra mile im so close
I trace your pulse.

Keep on staring though it’s a sin
Shivering the beat drops back in

Things that make me high.


Little things that mean so much
Little things that mean so little
Guess that's why they are little.

Taking hold I’ve learnt my lesson
Growing old my last confession.

Lord I am alive
I am alive
I am alive.

Guess that’s why they are little.

You say the bridges between things burn
That what’s past is ash and what’s ash has flown
Yet I still see the flames lick closer to your side
The words still burn your ears

You say to everything there is a season
A time for every purpose under heaven
Yet the time I see for you is eaten away
The pain you feel

So donning your faithful slippers
A fear in your eyes so tired
And I just can’t help you no I just can’t help but you follow…

Behind closed doors is brought into the open
A public display of a strange affection
Giant tears screaming you just cant go
My Lunatic in a dressing gown

You say, I’m very sunny you know, I’m always optimistic
I say one has to laugh because of the darkness
And the knowing hits your ears like the wave of a truth
The light drains out your eyes

So donning your faithful slippers
A fear in your eyes so tired
And I just can’t help you no I just can’t help but you follow…

Behind closed doors is brought into the open
A public display of a strange affection
Giant tears screaming you just can’t go

You can’t fool me
Just the blind men around you see hazy windows eternally
Steamed up glasses
Make their minds enjoy the masses
But I don’t believe

I see right through your masquerade
What’s your poison? It’s all in the name.
I see right through you yes this world’s a crying shame
I see right through your masquerade.

No you can’t fool me
Just the rich men around you meet too much temptation so incomplete
Messed up classes
Masks are worn, disguises born
But I don’t believe


Masks are worn, disguises born
But I don’t believe
Masks are worn, disguises born
But I don’t believe.

Soon you will fade away

Soon you will fade away.

We forget just where our roots do lie
In the earth you will find your desire
You must trust in listening.

We are running out of silences
Single moment is all she requires
You must trust yourself to begin.


And I fall down
Need to fight
Lose my sight
I’m taking hold of when all is gone
My essence won
I reach the sun
I’m taking hold of the world.


There is so much that I can’t explain
My thoughts will never retire
For the wonders I admire.

Only truly when you are within yourself
Does the loneliness start to expire
For this is what I desire.

Round here the horizon is more than a flat fine line
Down by the boat house we gather in weathers
To remind ourselves of being alive

Round here the horizon is more than a flat fine line
Down by the shoreline in glimmering moonlight
Our reverent fears drift out to sea

There’s a lot of singing down at the harbour late at night
There’s a lot of bathing in this orange light
There’s a lot of dancing down at the harbour late at night

Catch her wave
Reel her in
But she’s gone

We’re watching the whales
To hear the sounds to touch the blue
We’re watching the whales
To feel alive
It’s Mother Blue

Round here the horizon is more than a flat fine line
Down by the boathouse we gather in weathers
To remind ourselves of being alive

There’s a lot of singing down at the harbour late at night

There’s a lot of bathing in this orange light

When a single gold hair is this precious
Why oh why should I cease to…

When a single gold hair is oh so precious
Why oh why should I cease to
Why oh why should I cease to

High hopes and aspirations in
Your head
Pleading sweetly in
My hands
Hope you are not
Waiting in vain

Kind words yet reservations on
My part
Engrave so clearly on
Your heart
Hope you are not
Waiting in vain

A glimpse of tomorrow blends with my thoughts of today
Dlaczego nie, why am I so afraid?
The taste of a stranger may soon become a life long ambition
Why should I cease to smile?

No strain in my heart and my head stops spinning
For once in my life my head stops spinning

High hopes and aspirations in
Your head
Pleading sweetly in
My hands
Hope you are not
Waiting in vain

Kind words yet reservations on
My part
Engrave so clearly on
Your heart
Hope you are not
Waiting in vain

Sad pale blue horsy
You had your time but you lost your place in …
Sad pale blue horsy
You had your time but you lost your place in
Sad pale blue horsy
You had your time but you lost your place in line

I see you, I see you
I see you, I see you
I see you, I see you
I see you, I see you

High hopes and aspirations in
Your head
Pleading sweetly in
My hands
Hope you are not
Waiting in vain

Kind words yet reservations on
My part
Engrave so clearly on
Your heart
Hope you are not
Waiting in vain

Rows and rows of brick clad housing
The streets and doorways recognising
Still a child is born.

Agnostic thrills the main contender
Many lies with blind pretenders
Still a child is born
Still a child is born.

What did I see?
I saw fear, pain and suffering here.

What did I find?
I found Kings bred for hunting.

What did I see?
I saw fear, pain and suffering here.

Razor walls and iron townships
Hungry mouths a white man conscript
Still a child is born.

Mountain high a wasted mention
Hypocrisy with no intention
Still a child is born.

Are you searching? Follow your needs
Open your arms and reach for the light of your deity
The one thing that sows your seed
Is times great healer.


Are you wondering? I do think so
Open your mind and listen to poetry with Romeo
A pleasure that strings your bow
Is times great healer.


Got to make time to.
Got to make time to.
Got to make time to
Got to make time.


Are you waiting? Ill be your host
Step from your line stop hiding from
shadows that need you most
Meetings that hold you close
Is times great healer.


Are you feeling? There’s so much more
Envisage the signs entrusted with
mythical overtures
A passage that opens doors
Is times great healer.


A sight you have yet to see
Dreaming consciously
Music that bears inner sound
Adore your family
That’s how it’s meant to be
Can’t live being tied to the ground.


Got to make time to.
Got to make time to.
Got to make time to.
Time to make.

There’s so much I long to do
Listen to my point of view
For I cannot see my role in life from here.

Searching for what I once knew
Lead the way I will follow you
For the silver lining I seek is never clear.

But how do I know if you are for real?
How can I hide the way you make me feel?


Please say
Say those words
For im longing for
The voice I heard.

Please turn
Turn me around
For there is no way out
I’m feeling down.


It was always either yours or mine
Doing time but what is my crime
Why can’t we meet on common ground?

Working each and everyday
Trying to find the will to stay
But the reason for my life has never been found.


Please listen to me
For I know I can’t live
Without or with
No please.

Please give it to me
For I’ve waited so long
I’m not very strong
No please.

Spread yourself flat,
Keep low to the ground,
Go this way that way monsters are found

You’ve reached the edge of the map,
At the end of the world,
But you shouldn’t be scared for the heart of that girl

Fight dragons alone,
You can break through the scales,
Travel the oceans in the bellies of whales

At the garden of riches,
At statues of gods
She will be waiting
Your love isn’t lost

Don’t stop to consider
If your journey is lost
There is a difference between value and cost

You’ve got to move fast
From a standing start
You can catch her shes not too quick for your heart

At the garden of riches,
At statues of gods
She will be waiting
Your love isn’t lost

Roll your sleeves up
Get some work done
If not for me then for you
We can move mountains
We can move mountains
We can move mountains

Why should I work for you?
When you don’t work for me
Why should I work for you?
When you don’t work for me
I have a conscience
I have a conscience
You have my money
You have my money

Why should I work for you?
When you don’t work for me
Why should I work for you?
When you don’t work for me

Lift your head up
Have a little pride
That’s enough for me
We can move mountains
We can move mountains
We can move mountains
We can you see

Roll your sleeves up
Get some work done
If not for you then for me
We can move mountains
We can move mountains
We can move mountains
We can

Why should I work for you

Turmoil, destination final
Draining dreams on high notes
Digging deep, nor dancing in rain

Fearful, crying but your cheerful
Accepting all your near to
Burning high and playing with flame


Hard faced, smiling through the rat race
Procrastinating fruitcake
Letting loose and hiding your tears

Drinking, drowning in your denial
Raise your glass to re-trial
Hoping that your spirit is sane


But im sorry im not that bold.
In awe to the sounds since I was 8 weeks old.
The message I send is clear
In a round-about way


I can feel the strength in my heart
But it’s tragic just the same
If I worship the world we walk on
Would it take away this pain?
Would it take away this pain?

Losing my anchors in time
Losing my anchors in time

Would you laugh at that?
Would you laugh out loud?

I’m making waves in the sound
I’m making waves in the sound

Would you laugh at that?
Would you laugh out loud?


Open the shutters to light my way home
This is the darkest night I’ve ever known
I miss the sun and I feel the cold
And I am worried for those I know.


I’m swapping time for love I know
I ’m swapping time for love I know

Would you laugh at that?
Would you laugh out loud?

Make no excuses for the way that you were made
They dressed their orders up like friendly advice

You were badly designed
Badly displayed
You were gently deceived
In all you believed

Oh but you try
You beautifully try
Oh you try
You beautifully try

The fawning you bought
Is a double-edged sword
Smothered in gold
Flesh, blood and bone

Oh but you try
You beautifully try
Oh you try
You beautifully try
