There's no way out of here
When you come in You're in for good There was no promise made The part you played The chance you took There are no boundaries set The time and yet You waste it still So it slips through your hands Like grains of sand You watch it go There's no time to be lost You'll pay the cost So get it right There's no way out of here When you come in You're in for good And There never was there an answer There an answer Not without listening Without seeing There are no answers here When you look out You don't see in There was no promise made The part you played The chance you took There's no way out of here When you come in You're in for good And there never was there an answer There an answer Not without listening Without seeing There's no way out of here When you come in You're in for good There are no answers here When you look out You don't see in There was no promise made The part you played The chance you took There's no way out of here When you come in You're in for good There's no way out of here When you come in You're in for good There are no answers here When you look out You don't see in There's no way out of here When you come in You're in for good |

Black shadows dance
Beyond the neon glow There's rumors in your head And just one way to go Oh so tight It makes your blood run cold The way is blind Try to save your soul Don't even pray Just cry from the street It's fine as you leave The one they keep at home So you love someone That you thought you owed You know it's a crime But what can you do? That's the price you pay With each turn of the screw But don't pay no mind Just cry from the street You really love the night Even though you're alone It's such a cryin' shame That things are so wrong It's the sign of the scream That it blinds your feet I guess the chance is ours You wish to stay and sleep But don't even pray Just cry from the street |

What am I suspended here?
Should I kid myself that I have no fear? I get no choice, I just have to wait It may already be too late I don't know what's going on She is here, but I am gone, I am gone My love is lying here She's far away though she looks so near ``Time will tell, she says to me When a warm ?...? is all I need Her peace of mind, her strength of will It will come, she's sure it will But how can I put my mind at rest? I feel I'm coming off second best And I'm cut with my own life Is this a dream or is it real life? Oh, sleep, come on me soon I can't bear this lonely room Look at that hair lying there The room is dark, she shows no fear I'm lying still, my eyes are wide My heart is pumping, I'm still alive I'm still awake against my will What will it ever take to still this burning in me? And I'm cut with my own life Is this a dream or is it real life? Oh, sleep, come on me soon I can't bear this lonely room Oh, sleep, come on me soon I can't bear this lonely room Oh, sleep, come on me soon I can't bear this lonely room |

You ask
What is the quality of life? Seeking to justify the part you play And hide fearing it incomplete To try To make it any more or less than short and sweet But short Short is from you to me As close as we are wont to try to make it be We're caught Watching the dark in the sky Who knows? Helpless it's time and self to hold the time of day And you You are a fantasy A view From where you'd like to think the world should see Be true And you will likely find A few Building a vision new and justice to our time And we We the immoral men We dare Naked and fearless in the elements And free Carefree of tempting fate Aware And holding off the moral nightmare at the gates And sweet Sweet as a mountain stream We'll look Toward a new day breaking in the east We meet As every future dream Unfolds And surely quality that is the very least |

There's no way I'm going to let go
There's no way, because it's my show I'm hanging on for a little while I won't go down easy, that's not my style I'm all tied up, tied up in a knot And I can't decide just what it is I've got Did I get out of touch? Did I lose my way? I've not forgot, no, not a single day Now you might believe I'm not a happy man Putting myself apart from the common clan Well, the boat we're sailing, we have a leak or two But I know it's sound, like me and you There's no way I'm going to let go There's no way, because it's my show I'm hanging on for a little while I won't go down easy, that's not my style |

I can't breathe anymore
Why that is I'm not sure I've got my feet on the ground In fact I'm flat on the floor My direction is lost I should pause to take stock It's a new one on me To even dream that you're free It's a tale without an end But the end is there for all to see And if the end weren't so real Coming 'round and 'round again on me I guess it's all about my pride I want to be there at the kill But with or without God on my side I know that I really will |

Remember that night...
White sails in the moonlight They walked it too... Through empty playground, this ghost's town Children again on rusting swings getting higher Sharing a dream On an Island.... it felt right We lay side by side, Between the moon and the tide Mapping the stars for a while Let the night surround you We're half way to the stars, Ebb and flow Let it grow..... feel the warmth beside you Remember that night, The warmth and the laughter Candles burn... Though the church was deserted At dawn we went down through empty streets to the harbour Dreamers may leave ...but we're here everafter... Da da da da da.... Let the night surround you We're half way to the stars, Ebb and flow Let it grow..... feel the warmth beside you... |

Shameless Sea
Aimlessly so blue Midnight moon shines for you Still marooned Silence drifting through Nowhere to choose Just blue Ceaselessly Star-crossed you and me Save our souls We'll be forever blue Waves roll Lift us in blue Drift us Seep right through Color us blue Wait for me Shameless you the Sea Soon the blue So soon Soon the Blue So soon |

Take a breath
Take a deep breath now Take a breath A deep breath now Take a breath When you're down is where you find yourself When you're drown there's nothing else If you're lost you'll need to turn yourself Then you'll find out that there's no one else To make the moves that you can do When you fall from grace your eyes in blue Your every breath becomes another world And the far horizon's living hell Take a breath A deep breath now This kind of love is hard to find I never got to you by being kind If I'm the one to throw you overboard At least I showed you how to swim for shore When you're down is where you'll know yourself Then if you're drown there's nothing else When you're lost you need to find yourself Then you'll find out that there's no one else |

All the pieces fall into place
When we walk these fields And I reach out to touch your face This earthly heaven is enough for me So break the bread and pour the wine I need no blessings but I'm counting mine Life is much more than money buys When I see the faith in my children's eyes I've felt the power in a holy place And wished for comfort when in need Now I'm here in a state of grace This earthly heaven is enough for me So break the bread and pour the wine I need no blessings but I'm counting mine Life is much more than money buys When I see the faith in my children's eyes |

Would this do
To make it all right While sleep has taken you Where I'm out of sight I'll make my getaway Time on my own Search for a better way To find my way home To your smile Wasting days and days On this night Always down and up Half the night Hopeless to reminisee Through the dark hours We'll only sacrifice What time will allow us You're sighing... sighing All alone Though you're right here Now it's time to go From your sad stare Make my getaway Time on my own Needing a better way To find my way home To your smile |

He's sending stones skimming and flying
Circles spinning out his time Though the earth is dying his head is in the stars Chances are this spark's a lifetime Out of touch he'll live in wonder Won't lose sleep he'll just pretend In his world he won't go under Turns without him until the end Rivers run dry but there's no line on his brow Says he doesn't care who's saved It's just the dice you roll, the here and now And he's not guilty or afraid One day he'll slip away Cool water flowing all around In the river and on the ground Leave a pocketful of stones and not believe in other lives Until then he'll live in wonder He won't fight or comprehend In his world he won't go under Turns without him until the end |

Where we start is where we end
We step out sweetly, nothing planned Along by the river we feed bread to the swans And then over the footbridge to the woods beyond We walk ourselves weary, you and I There's just this moment I light a campfire away from the path We lie in the bluebells, a woodpecker laughs Time passes slowly our hearts entwined All of the dark times left behind The day is done The sun sinks low We fold up the blanket, it's time to go We walk ourselves weary, arm in arm Back through the twilight Home again We waltz in the moonlight and the embers glow So much behind us Still far to go |

Dance, to the movement of the stars
Sing till the walls around us ring Pray that it never fades away Until we sleep Feast, go ahead now, take your fill Drink, till the room begins to sway Play, and your cares will blow away Until we sleep Into a deep and dreamless sleep our spirits fall And what we sow we cannot reap nor keep at all Work, though the work will break your back Rest, hope to feel your spirits rise But the years, have cut you down to size Now go to sleep Into a deep and dreamless sleep our spirits fall And what we sow we cannot reap nor keep at all |
