Where the Sour Turns to Sweet
|
|
We're waiting for you Come and join us now We need you with us Come and join us now Look inside your mind See the darkness is creeping out I can see in the softness there Where the sunshine is gliding in Fill your mind with love Find the world of future glory You can meet yourself Where the sour turns to sweet Leave your ugly selfish shell To melt in the glowing flames Can you sense the change? See your eyes, now listen We're waiting for you Come and join us now We want you with us Come and join us now Paint your face all white To show the peace inside Drift away while the saffron burns To the land where the rainbow ends Can you sense the change? See your eyes in focus We're waiting for you Come and join us now We need you with us Come and join us now We're waiting for you Come and join us now We need you with us Come and join us now We want you with us Come and join us now We need you with us Come and join us now |

In the Beginning
|
|
Ocean of motion Squirming around and up and down Pushing together Scattering mountains all around you That is the sound of a new born world And the light from a curious sky It has begun You're in the hands of destiny Thrashing with violence Hurling its lava up and down Furnace of frenzy Burning with power uncontrolled That is the sound of a new born world And the light from a curious sky It has begun You're in the hands of destiny Is that the chariot with stallions gold? Is that a prince of heaven on the ground? Is that the roar of a thundercrash? This is my world and it's waiting to be crowned Father, son, looks down with happiness Life is on its way Ocean of motion Squirming around and up and down Pushing together Scattering mountains all around you That is the sound of a new born world And the light from a curious sky It has begun You're in the hands of destiny Is that the chariot with stallions gold? Is that a prince of heaven on the ground? Is that the roar of a thundercrash? This is my world and it's waiting to be crowned Father, son, looks down with happiness Life is on its way |

Fireside Song
|
|
As daybreak breaks the mist upon the earth It came to pass that beauty settled there forever more And as the steam clings close to things to come It came to pass that solid rock did part for humble life Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion Now there's hope reborn with every morning See the future clearly at its dawning Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness Whilst water slips into the sea The father's sad to see it's free As shadows creep towards their master night It came to pass that trees defied the wind who shook their leaves And as the peace descended all around It came to pass that nature's creatures came to face the world Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion Now there's hope reborn with every morning See the future clearly at its dawning Forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness Whilst water slips into the sea The father's sad to see it's free Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion Now there's hope reborn with every morning See the future clearly at its dawning Once upon a time there was confusion Disappointment, fear and disillusion |

The Serpent

|
Dark night, planets are set Creator prepares for the dawn of man You're waking up, the day of incarnation Said you're waking up to life Images he made to love Images of gods in flesh Man is wonderful, very wonderful Look at him Beware the future Here is my world and it's waiting for me Paradise before my eyes I am alive in a new born world This heaven will always be mine I'm waking up, the day of man has come I'm waking up, the day of man has come And god created man from dust With a soul inside his mould And god created womankind The vessel of satan's hold Creator made the serpent wise Evil in his tempting eyes Man is wonderful, very wonderful Look at him Beware the future Here is my world and it's waiting for me Paradise before my eyes I am alive in a new born world This heaven will always be mine I'm waking up, the day of man has come I'm waking up, the day of man has come Dark night, planets are set Creator prepares for the dawn of man You're waking up, the day of incarnation Said you're waking up to life Here I stand a child in a lonely world, oh no Watch the serpent tempting me to evil The guiding hand will help me on Guiding hand will help me on The guiding hand will help me on Guiding hand will help me on |

Am I Very Wrong?
|
|
Am I very wrong To hide behind the glare from an open minded stare Am I very wrong To wander in the fear of a never ending lie Am I very wrong To try to close my ears to the sound they play so loud Am I very wrong The happiness machine is trying hard to sing my song Today's your birthday friend, everything all right Let us our greetings to you send Happy friend, everything all right We hope your life will never end Am I very wrong To want to steal a pin then I'll check that I have skin Am I very wrong To want to leave my friends and the curse of the happiness machine Today's your birthday friend, everything all right Let us our greetings to you send Happy friend, everything all right We hope your life will never end They say, we hope your life will never end They say never end, never end, never end, never end, never end They say never end - no They say never end, never end... |

In the Wilderness
|
|
Leaving all the world to play they disappear And the leaves have gathered dust to run like deer Tearing pieces from our lives to feed the dawn Mist surrounds the seagulls christened by the storm Music, all I hear is music - guaranteed to please And I look for something else Rain drops pouring down the rooftops Flowing in the drains As the people run their lives As their lives are run by time Fighting enemies with weapons made to kill Death is easy as a substitute for pride Victors join together, happy in their bed Leaving cold outside the children of the dead Music, all I hear is music - guaranteed to please And I look for something else Rain drops pouring down the rooftops Flowing in the drains As the people run their lives As their lives are run by time... |

The Conqueror
|
|
He climbs inside the looking glass And points at anything he hates He calls to you, "Hey look out son There's a gun they're pointing at your pretty face" And the heads they are a rolling Cos the conqueror is on his way And the justice day is coming For the conqueror is on his way Five hundred little women Are calling at their hero's door Yes, their hero is working overtime He's squirming on an empty floor And the heads they are a rolling Cos the conqueror is on his way And the justice day is coming For the conqueror is on his way He's bought the castle on the hill He's bought it just to knock it down The local power shout him down They say he's just an empty-headed clown And the heads they are a rolling Cos the conqueror is on his way And the justice day is coming For the conqueror is on his way He's busy building monuments To hide inside his empty grave You there, can you find some souls He's looking for some people to save And the heads they are a rolling Cos the conqueror is on his way And the justice day is coming For the conqueror is on his way And the words of love are killing him The conqueror is on his way And the words of love were lying on an empty floor Just in the place where the conqueror lay... |

In Hiding
|
|
Pick me up, put me down Push me in, turn me round Switch me on, let me go - I have a mind of my own In hiding Far from the city of night And the factories of truth I stand upon the mountain A million miles from my home And the faces of fear I have freedom to think In hiding I may take off my clothes That I wear on my face I float upon a river A million miles from the plains That are piercing the clouds I am lost in the beauty In hiding Pick me up, put me down Push me in, turn me round Switch me on, let me go - I have a mind of my own I wish you were here In hiding I lie silent at last I'm free from my past I walk among the tall trees This is beauty I know I'm in love with it all I have freedom to love In hiding Pick me up, put me down Push me in, turn me round Switch me on, let me go - I have a mind of my own Pick me up, put me down Push me in, turn me round Switch me on, let me go - I have a mind of my own |

One Day
|
|
Don't get me wrong I think I'm in love But the feeling in the word is more Than your crystal eyes will ever see in me Don't get me wrong Open your eyes Although I cannot show my heart I'll watch and hope while you are near to me One day I'll capture you And call you to my side One day I'll take you from The boredom of our lives One day we'll fly away To the kingdom of my dreams One day I'll find myself And wrap it in my love for you Birds of the sky, may I borrow your wings? Very soon I'll ask my love To travel with me to the world outside Cherry trees, may I borrow your bloom? Very soon I'll ask my love To come inside the nest I'll build alone One day I'll capture you And call you to my side One day I'll take you from The boredom of our lives One day we'll fly away To the kingdom of my dreams One day I'll find myself And wrap it in my love for you Animal friends Help me decide When should I ask my love to leave? I'll beg of you that she'll say yes to me Breathe in deep Now is the time She looks at me and gently smiles As if she knew I'd ask her all the time One day I'll capture you And call you to my side One day I'll take you from The boredom of our lives One day we'll fly away To the kingdom of my dreams One day I'll find myself And wrap it in my love for you |

Window
|
|
Slowly I stretch out my arms, freely Shadows of night disappear Rise from the slough of despond, find the pathway Guiding us forward through pastures of dream day Days to enjoy, peace I knew once before me Dawning to dusk on the hills until morning Come see me take my hand Come see me in my land Flying invisibly high, watch me All on a beautiful sky, I'll be Clear and serene in the love I've discovered Long search is over, the soul is uncovered Resting on joy that abounds without ceasing Bidding farewell to the fears now decreasing Come see me take my hand Come see me in my land High on a golden crested wave she sits The little nymphs dance in her hair The trees all beckon to the sky to bless their empty lives Horizons come to sip wine there The veiled mist reveals the wandering ship upon the reef The albatross flies to the stern But only Jack Frost saw the kiss you gave him in return Crossing the mountains of truth see them Soaring majestically high, and then Stop at the warning light, see it flash brightly Thunder awakes me, the crashes beside me Shatters the scene and brings chaos to beauty Leading us forward where destiny may be Come see me take my hand View from another land... |

In Limbo
|
|
Please take me away Far from this place Leaving me here Take me away To the furthest star in the sky Take me away To the deepest cave of the night Take me away Voices of love, here am I In the sad sad world of fear Take me away From the power of my ambition And I'll be happy I, I've conquered time Where will I go? Am I still mine? Take me away To the furthest star in the sky Take me away To the deepest cave of the night Take me away Voices of love, here am I In the sad sad world of fear Take me away From the power of my ambition And I'll be happy Peace - floating in limbo Limbo - leading me nowhere Peace - now without motion I cry - when will I die? God - where is my soul now? My world, please set me free |

Silent Sun
|
|
The silent sun that never shines She is the warmth of my lonely heart The motion of a turning wheel Can't you stop it and look around? Baby you feel so close I wish you could see my love Baby you've changed my life I'm trying to show you... A tiny stone that hides from me Can't you see that I'm just outside? A mountain stream that chills the sea Can't you feel in your useless pride? Baby you feel so close I wish you could see my love Baby you've changed my life I'm trying to show you... When night reveals a star-filled sky I want to hold it in my hands When snowflakes heal the ugly ground Your beauty hides the joy I've found Baby you feel so close I wish you could see my love Baby you've changed my life I'm trying to show you... |

A Place to Call My Own
|
|
And I've nearly found a place to call my own Waking gently feel her presence near Devil shattered, warmth is everywhere I am only a child of hers, my guardian goddess Now, I'm reaching my journey's end inside her womb And I think I've found a place to call my own |
