Once Around the Sun

Watch while the world burns
Happy to let it smoulder
Could stop if you wanted
But where’s the profit in that?
What did you think would happen with all your lies?
Don’t want your useless gold around my table
Standing proud amongst all your ruin.
Once around the Sun
World is turning
World is falling apart
Feel like you’ve been had
Need to go back to the start
So now speak your truth
Hope that the game stays longer
Protection is over
The void is staring at you.

Colours

I’ve seen colours that you can’t imagine.
I’ve been to places that would blow your mind.
I’ve done things you can only dream of
I’ve done it all in my time
I heard sounds that were made by the angels
Symphonies sent from the sky
I have swarm in the deep blue ocean
On a dolphin’s back
it made me cry
Hey, Hey, Hey (x3)
That’s what I say
So, come with me, I’m independent
I am nature’s one and only child
And this blood that’s running through my veins
it’s yours to taste, it’s yours to try
It’s so good to be alive
I have heard you say
But if I could turn back all that time
I would do it in an instant
So here we are at a standstill again
No way forward no way back
Like a stone waiting to break
Like a sun
Spinning around and around and around
in supernova colours

Ghost in the House

Too many ghosts in this house
And I’ve got to get away
Before I fade away yeah
Too many stones in my coat
And they want to take me down
To the water underground
Reptile still
Eat my time
Inch by inch
Your minutes take from mine
Fill the room
To the roof
Wait for me to take another breath
I can make you see
I can let you leave
I can set you free
No longer part of you and me
Every night wide awake
I say just come right on in
Crawling in my skin
Loosing days while I wait
For the static all to end
And I know that I can send
For the light, light of day
Take my ten-ton chains away
Now I’m free, free to run
Turn my face to the light of the sun
I can make you see
I can let you leave
I can set you free
No longer part of you and me
Breathing it in
Breathing it out
I can make you see
I can let you leave
I can set you free
No longer part of you and me
Breathing it out

Nebula

Fork in the road
Leads to the same place
It’s always there
Catching up fast
Lost in the clouds
Held in the same place
Lost in the clouds
Can’t see your face anymore.
One river flowing
Down through the years
When will it reach the sea
Look for the bright blue deep
Water flowing backwards
Been gone too long
Difference becomes real
Lost in the clouds
Held in the same place
Lost in the clouds
Can’t see your face anymore.
There’s a room upstairs
History laid bare
Always a gap
But never a void
Light put out too soon
Even though
Lost in the clouds
Never to return
Never be forgotten x 3

Room Filled With Light
05:24
|
|||
|
Black clouds arrive as far as I can see
Moving slow cover over me
You turn away paper over crack
Hide truth down deep so you can’t come back
Shine a light on (x5)
Shine a light on me
Scenes from a life no longer lived
Cut through confusion in your head
Life fractures walls start to fade away
Revelation just a step away
Shine a light on (x5)
Shine a light on me
Room filled with light fills you with the truth
Leave ground below lift you to the blue
Tell your soul now to understand
Now’s your time revolution man
Shine a light on (x2)
Shine a light on me

Island of Summer
05:25

Underneath the fallen tree
In winter
Pardon me I did not know
You were sleeping
Warm my body and my heart
I think I'm freezing
All I need is one more chance
To get through this season
Yeah - Where did the day go?
The Sun just seemed to slip away
Island of Summer
From my dream I find you
Before I wake
Before I wake
Remember leaves and fields of green
A dozen winters
Rub your cold shoulder next to me
A dozen winters
Drinking water, crystal clear
From the river
Yeah - Where did the day go
The Sun just seemed to sink away
Island of Summer
From my dream I'll find you before I wake
Before I wake
Drinking water, crystal clear
From the river
A dozen winters

Green Not Red
05:06
|

|
Green not red
Light not dark
Happy not sad
Love not hate
Warm not cold
Calm not angry
Together not alone
Serene not stressed
Order not chaos
Open not locked
Veins full of rust
Eyes full of hate
Heart dead as stone
Bones bleached dry.
Brain full of fuel
Burning to tear apart
Mind empty as a void.
Free not chained
Embraced not spurned
Alive not dead
A life worth living
Now I’ve learned to love surprises
It’s all the rage.

End Song (Carry On)
07:52
|

|
Chasing away the light
For no good reason
Other than it hurts the eyes
And leaves you blind
Stop bringing all this onto yourself
There’s got to be a better thing to do
Than cut your soul
Cut your soul to the bone
Then it’s all lost in an instant
When the world is too big for you
When the weight too heavy for you to walk
And you lost yourself
When you find yourself
With too many paths way up ahead
Not knowing left from right
Day from night
Then it’s all gone in an instant
Oh carry, carry on
When the world gets too much
When the walls get too high
When the light gets too dark
When the weight pushes down
When the system breaks apart
When no one else is there
When your all alone
You’ve just got to carry on
Oh carry, carry on
Even when it’s bad
