You Go Down
03:05
|
|||
|
I can see from where you’re standing that your walls seem so tall
And I know from what you’re saying, you’re about to fall
When you say its all over ‘cause your moving so slow
You say that its all over ‘cause there's no place left to go
You go down, every time you deny the soul
You go down, every time you say "I don't know"
Well you’re looking pretty good now in those brand new fancy clothes
But they hide whats inside you Oh my god heaven knows
You're so disgraceful, your living a lie
Never wanted to be that way it always makes you cry
You go down, every time you deny the soul
You go down, every time you say "I don't know"
Your mama told you
Don't go wandering too far
Your mama told you
Not wish upon a star
Your mama told you
Remember who you are
Your mama told you
Stay right where you are
You go down, every time you deny the soul
You go down, every time you say "I don't know"
You go down, every time you deny the soul
You go down, every time you say "I don't know"

The Message
04:10
|
|||
|
Well I see you’re moving backwards
Does it work for you that way?
Running to new horizons
Only to find Yesterday
Well there’s a message on the wind
Somebody’s at your door
They have the vows you’ve taken
But can’t remember anymore
And we know how you’ve fallen
We know you are lost
But we are here to help you
We can help you get across
Sing that song
Sing your song
You’re a dreamer
Sing that song
Well there’s a message on the wind
Somebody’s at your door
They have the vows you’ve taken
But can’t remember anymore
And we know how you’ve fallen
And we know that you are lost
But we are here to help you
We will help you get across
Oh yeah, ooh oh, ohh ohh, oh yeah

Here She Comes Again
04:15
|

|
Here she comes again
There goes my heart
So in love with you
So far apart
Every time I try to tell you the words got in my way
So I wrote this song for you to let the music say
I love you
No beginning there is no end
Eternal spinning the endless game
I see you standing there released from a dream
All that I can do is kneel before my queen
And say I love you
Every time I try to tell you the words got in my way
So I wrote this song for you to let the music say
I love you

Requiem For Humanity
05:37
|
|||
|
I would sit and I would stare
At all those who would not dare
Confront whatever it was they were thinking
By and by their eyes would close
I would watch as the panic rose
They realise my god they were sinking
Such a shame
Such a shame
Stupid games
Silly games
That was then this is now
We’ve all eaten the sacred cow
Soon to be suffering some kind of food poisoning
So lining up at the pearly gates
Wearing golden horns lathered in lace
Singing ahh come on Pete you can let the boys in
The hell I can
Silly man
Stupid games
Silly games
So I go chasing engram chains
Trying to relieve you of your pains
And all you say is who the hell do you work for
And you would rather talk to those ten thousand volts electrodes
That burn a hole right through your precious brain
And the drugs are the same
Just the same
Stupid games
Silly games

Another Day
03:21
|
|||
|
My head’s really rough
I don’t feel so good today
You see I woke this morning though I heard somebody say
This big old world is ending
I gotta do the best that I can
But I’ve been trying so long I don’t even know who I am
I think I’ll take a rest and find myself a quiet room
I’ll listen to some records declaring my eternal doom
Maybe I’ll take a drive see if I can find me some love
But it is so cold and dark here
There ain’t even no moon above
It’s getting lonely my guru glows so dim
I can’t get my message through
I just can’t get it in
Thought I’d live forever
Now and then get so scared
When I broke all the rules how was I to know you even cared
When I broke all the rules how was I to know you even cared

The Ridge
04:10
|
|||
|
When two worlds collide
Then you...Must decide
Which side, you are on
Before your memories
Are all gone
And you find, yourself alone
With no direction home
When the light meets the dark
A line forms a ridge and makes a spark
When that force reaches its peak
It can put you to eternal sleep
Should you awake, look around
you might not understand
The world you've found
When the truth, meets a lie
Then something has to die
But thats not you, you are the truth
You are,
The living proof
And I see, you've made it through
And so, I say hello to you!!!!!
Hello
Hello
I see you made it through
And I can say hello to you.

When You Go
05:15
|

|
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
My world
I have heard some talk
Seems you might be leaving
Yeah I heard some words
Seems you might be leaving
I don’t want you to go
You must do what you know
Life keeps pushing we’re under pressure
Always pushing under pressure
There’s just one thing I want you to know
My love goes with you when you go
Take it all
There’s nothing left of me
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world
You’re my world

Brand New Day
03:31
|
|||
|
Whatever happened to
The one who said he knew
All the answers to your prayers
And what became of the man
Said he had the master plan
Now he's got that gun in his hand
And he's pointing it at you!
Oh baby babe its so cold in here
Too many lies too much fear
I know their world I see it falling down
Babe its time to get away, move on up to a brand new day
Come with me, talk to me
Tell me what! What do you say!
Can you tell me where did it go
All the things you used to know
Now when it’s all turned to dust
Is there no one here you could ever trust?
Tell me babe who was it stole your heart
Took it from you and tore it apart
I believe its time for you and me to
Make a brand-new start
Oh baby babe its so cold in here
Too many lies too much fear
I know their world I see it falling down
Babe its time to get away, move on up to a brand new day
Come with me, talk to me
Tell me what! What do you say!
Oh baby babe its so cold in here
Too many lies too much fear
I know their world I see it falling down
Babe its time to get away, move on up to a brand new day
Come with me, talk to me
Tell me what! What do you say!

Black Star
07:05
|
|||
|
The black star, has taken you away
The black star, silenced you today
You always knew, the deal you made
Just a slave, of a burning ray!
The wild eyed, boy from free cloud
Is making his way back home
Picking up the pebbles, that fell
Put them in my pocket, like some magic spell
When we were young, you seemed to know the truth
I believed in you, you were the living proof
A simple box of matches, you threw the sticks away
You said "You see this emptiness"
Without thoughts that’s you some day
Ground control to major Tom your circuits dead
Theres something wrong, can you hear me major Tom
Can you hear me major Tom?
