Show Of Strength

Realistically
Its hard to dig it all too happily
But I can see
Its not always that real to me
A funny thing
Is always a funny thing
Though sadly things
Just get in the way

Open to suggestion
Falling over questions

Hopefully
But thats as well as maybe
A shaking hand
Wont transmit all fidelity
Your golden smile
Would shame a politician
Typically
Ill apologise next time

Bonds will break and fade
Go snapping all in two
The lies that bind the tie
Come sailing out of you

Realistically,
Hard to dig it all too happily
But I can see,
Not always that real to me
A funny thing
Is always a funny thing
And those sadly things
Is always a sadly thing

Bonds will break and fade
A snapping all in two
The lies that bind the tie
Come sailing out of you

A show of strength
Is all you want
You can never set it down...

Guts and passion
Those things you cant
Even set down
All those things you think might count
You cant ever set them down
Dont ever set them down
Never set them down
Hey, I came in right on cue
One is me and one is you...
Hey, I came in right on cue
One is me and one is you...

Senselnerin

I will not wait, I will not see
The things you crave are lost on me
You took some earth. gave it a name
You plant a cross and trade the blame

Dyed in the wool and dead of mind
You took your stand. left sense behind
You stake it all on a sense of place
And lose your head to save your face

Youve had your say
Close your mouth
If you know the way
Then point it out
Point it out

The ways and means as yet unclear
I only know where not to steer
I have no plan, but this I know
Youre said your peace in gods main goal

Youve had your say
Close your mouth
If you know the way
Then point it out
Point it out

All our voices out of tune
All our graveyards full too soon
Whats the matter, let it drop
Stupid, senseless, make it stop
Stupid, senseless, make it stop

All our voices out of tune
(I will not wait)
All our graveyards full too soon
(I will not see)
All your money in the bank
(the things you crave)
How it festered, how it stank
(are lost on me)

Lose a thing you hold dear
(you took some earth)
All our freedoms disappear
(gave it a name)
Whats the matter, let it drop
(you plant a cross)
Stupid, senseless, make it stop
(and trade the blame)

Stupid, senseless, make it stop
Stupid, senseless, make it stop
Stupid, senseless, make it stop

Satellite


Moonlight starlight
Insight out of sight
Somethings certain
Draw the curtains draw them

Take the night
When it calls
Take the night
When it falls
When it falls
When it falls
When it falls

You will I might
Talking satellites
Rockets comets
Somethings coming

Take the night
When it calls
Take the night
When it falls
When it falls
Take the night
When it falls

Out out all out
In doubt far out
Wheels in motion
Take it take it take it the potion

Take the night
When it calls
Take the night
When it falls
When it falls
When it falls
When it falls

Moonlight
Starlight
Insight
Out of sight

Take the night
When it calls
Take the night
When it falls
When it falls
When it falls
When it falls

 Ripeness

I found nothing in a back room
Change the shape of the world
For long enough
Got the boat till as far as I could
Before it could take me
It was far enough

Mature you said at the wrong time
Broke my aging skin cause age was mine
Had a field day
Smelt like roses
Harvesting my thoughts cos up much time

When you grasped the question
Did you miss the meaning
When you met your challenge
Did you go out fighting
We will discover
Ripeness twice over

Sing your song
Worth its weight in God gold
Curse its fate

When you grasped the question
Did you miss the meaning
When you met your challenge
Did you go out fighting
How will we recover
Ripeness when its over

I lost something in a big room
Change the shape of the world
For long enough

When you grasped the question
Did you miss the meaning
When you met your challenge
Did you go out fighting
When you climbed on top
Did you fall on shadows
And clammerring off
Did you fall on rainbows

How will we recover
Ripeness when its over
How will we recover
Ripeness when its over

Read It In Books


You said you couldnt find anyone
To love you
I said theres more to life than a broken heart
Did it console you?

Ive seen in your eyes
Ive read it in books
Who wants love
Without the looks

You know the words
Please do say it from your knees
Show some respect
Hey baby, genuflect
Once I like crying
Twice I like laughter
Come on tell me what Im after

I said youve gotta stop chasing rainbows
You said Im just staying up
And anyway
I like it when the rain goes

Ive seen in your eyes
Ive read it in books
Who wants love
Without the looks

Once I like crying
Twice I like laughter
Come on tell me what Im after

Theres not that much to us
I hide the little with a lot
You still expect a lovely fuss
After showing all youve got

Ive seen in your eyes
Ive read it in books
Who wants love
Without the looks
Thats all

 Porcupine

There is no comparison
Between things about to have been
Missing the point of our mission
Will we become misshapen?

A change of heart
Will force the nail
Nailed to the door
To all avail

There are no divisions
Between things about to collide
Hitting the floor with our vision
A focus at some point arrives

A change of mind
Will force the nail
To hit the head
And set the sail

A change of skin
Will shed the tail
Hung on the wall
For use again
A change of heart
Will force the nail...
(there is no comparison
Between things about to have been)

Smash the pig
This pork is mine
Im pining for the pork
Of the porcupine
Id best be on my best behaviour
Best behave yourself you hear

There are silent ways of wishing now
Wish I had whats turning round
Round the corridor
There are people there
Through the peephole I can see me down

Very nice
Some pressure feelings
You know how you hope
For something to hope for

There
What is that paper there
Paper is a collander
Collanders picking holes in me
Hes ________ the holy water there
Waters paper like an impure________
A strange moment as your ______________

Paper is a collander
Collander is picking holes in me
Suck the pig this pork is mine
pining for the pork of the porcupine

Im beginning to see the light

 Pictures On My Wall

Can you hear it?
The sound of something burning
Something changing
On the merry-go-round tonight

The pictures on my wall
Are about to swing and fall
Love it all
Love it all

Ooh, we should have
Should have got it right
Ooh, we should have
Should have got it right tonight

People come
I count every one
Faces burning, hearts beating
Nowhere left for us to run

The pictures on my wall
Are about to swing and fall
Love it all
Love it all

Ooh, we should have
Should have got it right
Ooh, we should have
Should have got it right tonight

Can you hear it
The sound of someone thinking
Someone thinking
On the merry-go-round tonight

The pictures on my wall
Are about to swing and fall
Love it all
Love it all

Over The Wall

The man at the back has a question
His tongues involved with solutions
But the monkey on my back
Wont stop laughing

Over the wall
Hand in hand
Over the wall
Watch us fall

Theres something to be said for you
And your hopes of higher ruling
But the slug on my neck
Wont stop chewing

Over the wall
Hand in hand
Over the wall
Watch us fall

Im walking in the rain
To end this misery
Im walking in the rain
To celebrate this misery
Whats that you say?
Speak up, I cant hear you
What do you say?
I couldnt hear you

Over the wall
Hand in hand
Over the wall
Watch us fall

Out on the road coast to coast
Out on the road coast to coast

Im over the wall
Im over the wall
Im over the wall
Come over the wall
Come over the wall

I cant sleep at night
How I wish youd hold me tight
I cant sleep at night
Come on and hold me tight...

I cant sleep at night
How I wish youd hold me tight
Come on and hold me tight

I cant sleep at night
How I wish youd hold me tight
Come on and hold me tight
Come on and hold me tight

I cant sleep at night
How I wish youd hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
Hold me tight
To my logical limit
To the logical limit
To my logical limit
To the logical limit

Nothing Lasts Forever

I want it now
I want it now
Not the promises of what tomorrow brings
I need to live in dreams today
Im tired of the song that sorrow sings

And I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

Id walk to you through rings of fire
And never let you know the way I feel
Under skin is where I hide
The love that always gets me on my knees

And I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever

I want it now
I want it now
Dont tell me that my ship is coming in
Nothing comes to those who wait
Times running out the door youre running in

So, I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget

Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever

All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you
All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you
All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you
All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you
All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you
All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you
All the shadows and the pain
Are coming to you

 Nocturnal Me

In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realised our bigger themes

Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

Do or die
Whats done is done
True beauty lies
On the blue horizon

Who or why
Whats one is one
In pure disguise
Of vulgar sons

Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

Whatever burns burns eternally
So take me in turns internally
When Im on fire
My body will be
Forever yours
Nocturnal me

In an ice-capped fire
Of burning wood
In our world of wire
Ignite our dreams of starry skies
And you and me
As realised our bigger themes

Oh, take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
Take me internally
Forever yours
Nocturnal me
