Lights in the sky 03:34
lyrics
buy track
All alone upon the hilltop Time passes by Little bit high In the corner of my vision Lights in the sky Catching my eye Was it real or was it fancy? Only you decide But that something happened to me Cannot be denied Strange sensations overcame me Lost all sense of time Losing all of my perspective In this dream of mine Air was filled with sound and colour Knowledge filled my mind They called me friend they called me brother Said they had a sign In my mind Saw a vision of the future The Earth was ringed with fire They showed me how we could prevent it Aiming to Inspire Was it real or was it fancy? I could not decide Suddenly the picture vanished Nothing left behind in my mind All alone upon the hilltop Little bit high Wondering why It was all a fading vision Lights in the sky Gone from my eye In my mind

Smart 03:05
lyrics

You know that you’re clever but it seems a curse Cos it gets their attention and just makes it worse You want to be normal cos you’ve got no friends It seems like the bullying will never end CHORUS Don’t go speaking your thoughts out loud Cos it’ll only set you apart You don’t want to stand out from the crowd So don’t let on you’re smart You’re good at your schoolwork but it makes you sad And deep down inside you just want to be bad You ain’t got it in you to break the rules Why can’t the girls see that they’re the fools CHORUS You enjoy the lessons but you’re full of fear You must try to make it to the end of the year Your whole life’s ahead and this is only school You’ll soon find it’s better to be clever than cool CHORUS Now school is over and you finally see The world’s full of people like you and me You did your exams your results are great The next step is college and you just can’t wait There’s no doubt about it, it was hard at school With a small bunch of thickos who loved to be cruel But where are the bullies who made your life hell? They’re serving your burger and your fries as well

Insecurity 02:35
lyrics

I got a woman who’s treating me right I got a feeling the future is bright Cos I got a woman who makes me feel good And I ought to be happy I know that I Should be contented and know she is kind but nagging away at the back of my mind I got this feeling that something is wrong And I’m feeling weak when I ought to be strong cos I got a woman who says she loves me But she’s so good looking and thinks I don’t See all the looks when she walks in the room I’ve got to believe she’ll be leaving me soon I’ve got a woman it’s hard to believe I’m feeling so lucky bit I’m not that naïve I know from experience it won’t be too long Before I spoil it all when I come on too strong Oh I’ve got a woman it just isn’t fair Cos I ought to be happy but instead I’m scared I know that I love her and I think she loves me But deep in my mind I know how it will Be cos my jealousy grows till I cry It won’t be too long before I can’t say I got a woman

Supernatural 03:20
lyrics

The sun has gone and now the moon is shining bright But in my heart the world has turned to darkness I hear the werewolves howling in the night And I’m so scared it’s turning into madness CHORUS Oh since you went away I’m suffering a curse I see the strangest things and it is getting worse I don’t know what to do so I must ask you first To please come back to me Supernatural I see the ghostly shapes coming up the stairs And in my head the ghostly word are spoken I see the vampire’s teeth but I don’t really care Cos since you left me my whole world is broken CHORUS I should have listened when my friends said you were strange Of other men whose lives had ended badly You saw me flirt and flew into a jealous rage Your eyes flashed bright and your spell was upon me CHORUS If you would just back the fear would disappear I wouldn’t have to spend my life curled up in fear This living hell would end as soon as you are here So please come back to me Supernatural

Projection 05:48
lyrics

I always wonder What do they see? What is imagined? What is their view of me? CHORUS The image on the wall there for all to see What does it say, say about me? Colours and sounds what do they collect? From the image I project Is it my capability? Or is it stupidity? I don’t know To me it is a mystery CHORUS Listening out for any clues Picking up on audible cues Overheard comments would suggest My image quality isn’t the best Overly praised For simple results Which should be easy For most adults CHORUS How low is expectation How low is the bar Should the reward be a golden star? CHORUS

Mr Briggs' hat 03:51
lyrics
buy track
You're going to kill More than time today You're going to cause Terror on London's railway CHORUS You'd better be careful You must remember that Don't leave behind Your black beaver hat You see your victim Mr Briggs a city gent Against your youth a violent attack The old man couldn't prevent CHORUS Trapped in his compartment You stole his watch and chain You bludgeoned him and robbed him And threw him off the train BRIDGE His injured body was very soon found He passed soon after that In the carriage police did find Blood and a beaver hat They thought the hat belonged to Briggs But that wasn't true Because the hat belonged to the killer And that killer was you, you, you You have been careless No disputing that You left behind your own headwear And took Mr Briggs' hat You sold the chain to a jeweller Who later identified you. Soon the police had tracked you down And wanted an interview. The net was quickly closing in But how you must have cursed You boarded a ship bound for New York But Scotland Yard got there first Tried and hanged for murder You should remember that The vital piece of evidence Was picking up his hat Don't forget your hat guys, don't forget your hat

The City 06:44
lyrics

The Captain steers his ship between the rocks and guided by the stars lands safely in the port of New Mumbai Within whose city walls a million people live beneath the ground protected from the glare of both suns in the sky And deep within this crowd a telepath reads wealthy minds extracting secrets he may later pass on to his friend A cybermage who plays the keys her aim to undermine the corporate masters as they sit and watch their profits rise Aaaah Inside the city science and magic reign Inside the city telescopes skywards strain Inside the city laser competes with spell Inside the city traveller and wizard dwell The captain sits on the inside Of Eddie’s bar a place to hide His pirate crew stand at his side and drink He contemplates his whiskey there And thinks of treasure in his lair The pirate crew deserve a share they think Inside the city the bar staff are pretty The crew are acting loud and tough They haven’t nearly drank enough Inside the city it seems such a pity The crew came in without a care And leave most of their fortune there The telepath stands by the door The captain’s thoughts he listens for The details of the treasure store inferred And when the thoughts are at an end A present for his magic friend The details of the trove he’ll send to her Inside the city the banter is witty But drunkards will let secrets slip The details of their pirate ship Inside the city when night lights are lit he Listens to the tipsy minds His living earned from what he finds The cybermage receives the gift Of information she can sift The Captain’s bank account she swiftly plunders And while she searches through the net She stumbles on a secret kept Is there a greater profit yet she wonders Inside the city her calling is risky Following the money round Her aim to bring the network down Inside the city although it seems tricky The firewalls fall before her art As she strikes at the city’s heart The Captain and his crew awake with throbbing heads and guided by an eerie light walk out through New Mumbai Arriving at their ship they board and firing up the engines set course between the two suns in the sky Aaaah Inside the city traveller and wizard dwell Inside the city Within the walls of New Mumbai the actions of the night before will soon conspire to change a million lives

Mist 04:29
lyrics

By myself all alone Contemplating what to do I need some time to think Tonight without you Without you CHORUS Into the darkness all alone Only the moon for company Gloom descends around my soul A dense mist surrounds me Into the darkness into the night Chasing shadows along the street Listening out for signs of life Seeing you in everyone I meet Everyone I meet CHORUS Listening to whispers from the past Surrounded by my memory Pictures come and pictures go Nothing to hear and nothing to see Nothing to see CHORUS The image resolves itself The whisper becomes a shout The mist clears the gloom brightens Darkness lifts and light shines out Light shines out

See the light 03:07

Safe in your tower You can see how we cower Drunk on your power While the rubbish we scour Surely this cannot be right brother When you gonna join our fight brother Can’t you see that things are tight brother When you gonna see the light brother Take all you need And I’m sure you’ll succeed Live on your greed While the rest of us bleed Are you listening to our song brother Can’t you hear that we are strong brother Surely we can’t all be wrong brother Are you gonna sing along brother We’ve heard all the lies Now we’re opening our eyes It’ll be no surprise When the masses arise Are you listening to our song brother Can’t you hear that we are strong brother Surely we can’t all be wrong brother Are you gonna sing along brother Surely this cannot be right brother When you gonna join the fight brother Can’t you see that things are tight brother When you gonna see the light brother When you gonna see the light

Waiting for an answer 03:47
lyrics
buy track
When I ask a question why does it take days? For me to get an answer why the long delays? Why don’t you answer is the fault all mine? Did I say something wrong did I cross the line? CHORUS Do you even understand my pain? How I wish that I could explain Waiting for you is hurting me Waiting for an answer I never see Did I word it badly did you understand? Or did you think I’m being underhand? Each incoming message I instantly view Hoping beyond hope it’s the one from you CHORUS It burns me from the inside minutes like an hour And hours feel like days you have all the power I wonder if you realise how this makes me feel I wish I could dismiss them but these feelings are real Please tell me even if it’s no please what do you say You don’t have to face me I’ll simply move away Can’t continue like this can’t endure the pain Can’t leave you again but I cannot remain Did you even understand my pain? How I wished I could explain Don’t believe you could see Waiting for you was hurting me Waiting for an answer I never see

Learn to bleed 02:56

So you changed your mind and you want me back Where you gonna find all the things I lack? So you’ve got it planned for a brand new start Don’t you understand how you broke my heart? CHORUS I can tell that we’re falling in love again Both of us feeling the need Won’t it be fun when we’re falling in love again I hope that we’ve both learnt to bleed Now don’t get me wrong what we had was great So I’ll play along so I’ll take the bait Yeah I’ll bide my time so you think you’ve won And while you think it’s fine maybe have some fun CHORUS CHORUS Now you’ve settled in I can start the game Once you made me hurt now you’ll get the same Did you really think with all the things you said That I’d take you back and not want you dead CHORUS There’s no way that we’re falling in love again I’m just not feeling the need I’ll just pretend that we’re falling in love and then I’m gonna teach you to bleed

Sadness in her eyes 04:38
lyrics

I remember how happy she was Many years ago What has happened to that girl The one I used to know CHORUS Locked in her tower, looking through a window At the seas and skies I see her staring into the distance With sadness in her eyes Why the sadness, what went wrong Is she not aware Does she see the change within Behind the distant stare CHORUS I climb the tower and enter the room And see her standing there She turns around, I see her face Framed with greying hair Please talk to me, please confide I want to heal your pain Only you can decide To be happy again CHORUS She speaks, I listen, We talk all through the day I hope, I pray that the Sadness goes away The vacant stare starts to dissolve That stare of a thousand miles I look, into her eyes She looks back and smiles CHORUS

Sing to be free 07:44
lyrics

As I walk through this world I’m seeing so much poverty While just across the road There’s food and drink for all I see another man Jailed for wanting liberty We're doing what I can But I need help from you all CHORUS Sing with all your heart Shout with all your energy Wave from the heights So everyone can see Break down the walls Drive out hypocrisy Shout from your heart ‘til everyone is free I hear the battle cry Shouting for equality But still the bullets fly And still the poor man falls I know that we can change Turn greed to generosity We just have to be brave And make them hear our call CHORUS Can you hear the child Crying for his family You can save her life But cannot save them all Let us make a stand A plea for our humanity Shout out across the land And make them hear our call CHORUS to fade
