Is happiness real?
Or am I so jaded I can't see or feel - like a man been tainted Numbed by the effect - aware of the muse Too in touch with myself - I light the fuse I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- As I light a bitter fuse Time is on loan - only ours to borrow What I can't be today - I can be tomorrow And the more I see - the more I know The more I know - the less I understand. I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- To light a bitter fuse It's a bigger part - When our instincts act A shot in the dark - A movement in black And the more I see - the more I know The more I know - the less I understand. I'm the changingman - built on shifting sands (I don't have a plan) I'm the changingman - waiting for the bang- To light a bitter fuse |

Beware false prophets - take a stand!
My fortune cookie cracked up in my hand, More advice to fill up your head More empty words from the living dead- Who seek to explain what can't really be said- And how disappointed I was To turn out after all - Just a porcelain God - that shatters when it falls- Too much will kill you - too little ain't enough You shout my name but I'll call your bluff Most who see me - see me not for real We fake & fawn - play games 'til dawn But I could see what you can see And I hate too what you hate in me - And how disappointed I am To find me part of no plan - Just a porcelain God - that shatters when it falls "Don't lose control" - I tell myself, Life can take many things away - Some people will try - and take it all They'll pick off pieces as they watch you crawl And how disappointed I was To turn out after all - Just a porcelain God - that shatters when it falls- That shatters when it falls. |

You do something to me - something deep inside
I?m hanging on the wire - with love I?ll never find You do something wonderful - then chase it all away Mixing my emotions - that throws me back again Hanging on the wire, I?m waiting for the change I?m dancing through the fire, just to catch a flame- An?feel real again. You do something to me - somewhere deep inside I?m hoping to get close to- a peace I cannot find- Dancing through the fire- just to catch a flame Just to get close to, just close enough- To tell you that?? You do something to me-something deep inside |

Sugartown has turned so sour
its people angry in their sleep There's more small-town paranoia Sweeping down its evil sheets - You can tell it's witching hour You can feel the spirits rise When the room goes very quiet And there's hatred in their eyes - You better give me the chance I'll cut you down with a glance Yeh, with my small axe - so help me, And tho' I'm only one And tho' weak I'm strong And if it comes to the crunch Then I'm the woodcutter's son And I'm cutting down the wood for the good of everyone! There's a silence when I enter And a murmur when I leave I can see their jealous faces I can feel the ice they breathe |

A hazy mist hung down the street
The length of it's mile, As far as my eye could see The sky so wide, the houses tall Or so they seemed to be, So they seemed to me so small, And it gleamed in the distance And it shone like the sun, Like silver and gold, it went on and on. The summer nights that seemed so long Always call me back to return, As I re-write this song The ghosts of night, the dreams of day Make me swirl and fall and hold me in their sway, And it's still in the distance And it shines like the sun, Like silver and gold, it goes on and on. The rolling stock rocked me to sleep, Amber lights flashing 'cross the street And on the corner a dream to meet, Going on and on. On and on, On and on |

Like pebbles on a beach
Kicked around, displaced by feet Like broken stones - all trying to get home. Like a loser's reach Too slow & short to hit the peaks So lost & alone - trying to get home. As another piece shatters Another little bit gets lost And what else really matters - at such a cost? Like a loser's reach - Too slow & short to hit the peaks So lost & alone - trying to get home. Trying to get home - Like broken stones - All trying to get home. |

Past midnight's hold -
Where the world's awaiting - I'll wait for you love - But I close my eyes, as there's pain too in paradise - Hey baby say - just what you're thinking - Know I know it - yeh, feel I'm sinking - Know I feel it - I know you feel it too - Across the water, there's a boat that - will take us away. It is shining for me All I need to be But I can't find the key The one to make me believe- Late at night - When the world is dreaming - Way past the stars - That ignore our fate & all twinkle too late to save us - so we save ourselves. Hey baby say - just what you're thinking Know I know it - yeh, feel I'm sinking Know I feel it - I know you feel it too - Across the water, there's a boat that - Will take us away - Far from the madness - out of the sadness Into sunlight - out of the sinking - You know I feel it, I know you it too - Across the water, there's a boat that will take us away - And there we will stay |

The sun shone pink on white walls
And the trees stood so tall Defiant, proud and loud against the sky. There's no sign, there's no plan There ain't even a helping hand Just the bitter tang of sweet virtue. Don't waste your time - Don't hesitate - Life is but a moment, you can't wait, Go & have your fun - Go & lose your mind - But can you get back to the ones you left behind? When it comes, it comes quick! An' when you're least expecting it But the top's the bottom, an' the bottom is all you got. The sun shone pink on my wall And the trees stand so tall I'm empty now - but funny how - Defiant, proud & loud against the sky. |

The sun came out & hung above
Over our heads but far enough to see A bomb exploding in another town Children choking on a poison cloud While on the streets, where lovers once walked, Side by side in idle talk Bullets fall like unholy rain People change as the panic sets in - A frightened baby by her dead mother's side In a brutal world where there's nowhere To run, hide or cry - Now nothing feels the same way - Feels like it's changing again - Upon a street with no name It's hard to find it again - I ran as fast as my feet could fly Down country lanes where I took my time- Time like a hound snapping at my heels I got past thinking so I could feel - Feels like a film playing in my head And I kept rolling down green Surrey hills - In Spring- Now nothing feels the same way Feels like I'm changing again Upon a street with no name It's hard to find me again - The sun came out & hung above, over our heads but far enough to see |

Fly on wings of speed
That will bring you home to me I'll never be free - from the darkness I see As I wait for your smile. Though my hands are tied, My feet are bound by fate With clay at the base - As I sit and wait What visions I see. In dreams, she floats on a stream, With Jesus at the helm, the water reeds that beg, Her boat along the way - As she comes to me Now as the light is falling One candle left to light the way, Sailing home to morning She comes to me calling, To brighten up my darkest day, & the world fades away.. With her smile. Fly, on wings of speed That will bring you home to me I'll never be free - from the darkness I see, As I wait for your smile - |

I breathe the new day, baby, wild and free
As alive and fresh as it used to be Spring wind blowing straight through the window And a message tied to the breeze And I hear this is a new day Swear this is a new way It won't be before you feel it, too You may think I'm drugged or crazy But I haven't felt like this for so long I've been boxed up, locked up in a cage But I'll undo the chains with my own hands And I hear this is a new day Swear this is a new way It won't be before you feel it, too And I hear this is a new day Swear this is a new way It won't be before you feel it, too |

I've heard them all talking I guess you have too
Adding flickers to the flame How I've treated you I take the blame But let me say - that they don't know The really don't know - the fools don't know That I really didn't mean to hurt you. Oh darling, I didn't mean to hurt you Please believe me when I say - that I didn't mean to hurt you girl. Whatever they tell you There's more I could say Lending motion to the wheel How you built me up When I was falling down But who knows - you just might find Just might find - that I'm just your kind And I really didn't mean to hurt you. And tho' I was looking there for something Some things have no meaning While I was looking there for something Everything had gone And still as I looked; I lived And still as I lived; I wondered. |

Something worn, like a blanket thrown
Your tender heart, your crystal spirit Keeps me warm and safe from harm Wrapped around my shoulder I love to wake and watch your face And while you sleep, I fall for you again Is it true, what I feel for you Wish I could help it through So you could feel it too And the leaves around my door And the sunlight in the hall And darkness that will fall Make me want you more Morning breaks on the icy flakes That collect around our window It's cold outside brings a harsh goodbye With clouds at our mouths as we breath a sigh As I look like a long lending book Page after page we are turning But is it true what I feel for you Wish I could help it through So you could feel it too And the leaves around my door And the sunlight in the hall And darkness that will fall Just make me want you more Oh, make me want you more Want you more |

I saw you today, or at least I think it was
It's hard to say, we've all changed so much, Compelled to look, but I hid my face It's hard to trace, these feelings Gone so soon, the time I spent with you And like an old, old tune-keeps running through my head- I wanted to say, so many things But my mouth went dry, and one word and I'd cry. Slender bride, your beauty shines from you And forever more, I'll be on your side for sure, A light in your life, that always burns for you As time passes, so quickly. The final stage, we've both reached some way As we board our trains to different stations And the parts we play, and the things we say, Words on the way, to discovery |
