Lives Aligned
04:10
|

How many times have I weathered the storm
Standing my ground, resisting conform?
How many times have I turned the other cheek
Looked the other way, accepted critique?
How many times have I been told
Hold on to the past
When we’ve known damn well that in fact it wouldn’t last
How many times are there left to carry on
A fire burns out, what we had is dead and gone
Into the mist and the darkness, a crooked path awaits
Hands held together, suddenly it goes straight
The winding turns, the rocky road, all are left behind
A type of apparition, and lives become aligned
Out through the darkness, shining light paves the way
Free from the darkness, we begin to, break away
Live aligned (repeat)

Indeed I Love You So
06:04
|

You know, in time, I believe I can make you mine
Someday, you’d say, it’s not for make believe
But now, I know, someone else who loves you so
It’s time, decide, you can’t go back and forth
This world, this world is tumbling down
I know, I know it's upside down
But the love I have for you
The love I have for you
Is the greatest love I know
Indeed I love you, Indeed I love you so
To be, with me, will make the world spin symmetrically
It’s true, they’re through, they don’t know south from north
Round round upside down, upside down make the world go round
Upside down makes the world go round

Culprit
04:57
|
|||
|
The sun comes up, yet it's dark outside
Woke up at eight, feeling its too late, can’t stem the tide
Its calm out there, but there’s a storm within
A supercell coming straight from hell, all over again, Ya
A pile of bricks, a restless crowd
A coincidence that misrepresents like the Turin shroud
The culprit laughs, as he hides away
Escaping from, all the deed’s he’s done, spineless stowaway, Ya
On bended knee, an anthem weeps
Four hundred years, a flood of tears, and the nation sleeps
A second knee, a deadly ploy
Deprived of air, too late for prayer, a life destroyed, Ya
A prison cell, an easy kill
A perfect plan, that’s cleaner than, a suicide pill
When will it end, the curtain call
Terminate, the culprit’s slate, once and for all
All what we asked for, all that we need (repeat)
It’s not too late
It’s not too, It’s not too
It’s not too late

Once in a Lifetime
03:46
|

Once in a lifetime, there comes a day
When we all must pave our way
It wouldn’t matter, if I went wrong
You’d be there to, help me along
I only know that there’s you and me
Wish we were in sweet harmony
It wouldn’t matter if I went wrong
You’d be there to help me along
Honey, all the world’s our own
But I’m all alone, a love unknown
Honey oh honey, be forever mine
And the sun will shine
A long, long time, oh, I need you now today
What else can I say, I need you now today
Hold in your hand a chance to wander
Hold in your hand a chance to live
Hold in your heart what you have wanted
Hold in your heart what you can give
Hold in your hand a chance to wander
Hold in your hand a chance to live

One More Down
03:56
|

|
A young man stands, in no man’s land
Smoking gun by his side
A life erased laid to waste
The rule of law cast aside
One more down, look around
Tell me what do you see
No more sound, dead on the ground
How on earth can it be?
A thin blue line, waste of time
Behind the badge they do hide
One by one they cut them down
Another life is denied
One more down, look around
Tell me what do you see
No more sound, dead on the ground
How on earth can it be?
There’s one more down
To the ground, hear the sound, look around
One more down, look around
How on earth can it be?

I'm So Glad (Your Gone)
03:39
|
|||
|
Its everyday, that we hear, such a clatter
This and that, and the things, that don’t matter
You prop yourself, up for all, the attention
A lot of work, just to make, an impression
Blatant lies, fallacies, fabrication
All a part of your planned occupation
In spite of this, they took it in, an illusion
With all your help, tried to rid the constitution
I’m so glad that you’re gone, ya
Too many times you’re wrong, ya
You were here way to long, ya
I’m so glad you’re gone
Hated those, who did not, look at all like you
Are you afraid, of the one’s, who get to you
Yellow, brown, black and red, they have scared you
In betweens, not extremes, they’ve impaired you
I’m so glad that you’re gone, ya
Too many times that you’re wrong, ya
You’ve been here way too long, ya
I’m so glad you’re gone
Just walk away, the time has come for you to go
And don’t look back, we’ll be fine,
GO VERY FAR AWAY!
I’m so glad that you’re gone, ya
Too many times that you’re wrong, ya
You’ve been here way too long, ya
I’m so glad you’re gone
I’m so glad, I’m so glad, I’m so, I’m so glad you’re gone.
Yellow, brown, black and red,
They have scared you outta your head
Hated those that aren’t like you,
You should be scared, gonna get to you
Too many times that you’ve been wrong,
And you’ve been wrong way to long
Blatant lies and fallacies,
Evil lunatic policies
Where do you go, now that you’re through,
Better hit the road, before it hits you
We’re glad you’re gone, and all your tweets,
When it comes to your name we’ll hit delete!
Alright
Bye Bye

I Fit In

I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
Where do I go? who do I know?
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
But I don’t know where, does anyone care?
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
Do I explain? all over again?
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
I’m not to blame, I’m not ashamed
Do I fit here? do I fit there?
Can I fit here or anywhere?
One thing is clear I won’t disappear I will fit here!
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
Does anyone care? or maybe they’re scared
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
Who do I know? a friend or a foe?
Do I fit here? do I fit there?
Can I fit here or anywhere?
One thing is clear
I won’t disappear
I will fit here!
I’ll fit in here my way, and the right way, that’s for sure
I’ll fit in here somewhere, somehow, I’ll endure
Ya Ya Ya Ya Ya
Is the road ahead a lonely highway?
The twist and turns that it may take
But I’m forging ahead
I’m determined to keep my head
Cause I know that there’s just too much at stake
ahhhh
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
But I don’t know where, does anyone care?
I fit in here somewhere, somewhere,
Who do I know? a friend or a foe?
Do I fit here? do I fit there?
Can I fit here or anywhere?
One thing is clear, I won’t disappear
I will fit here!
I’ll fit in here my way, and the right way, that’s for sure
I’ll fit in here somewhere, somehow, I’ll endure
I’ll be fine

Tonight I’m gonna play it real
And let you know tonight exactly how I feel
Tonight I’m gonna make you dance
And Lord I know tonight you’ll never have a chance
And tonight I’m gonna love you
Tonight I’m gonna kiss you
Tonight you’re gonna feel it when we rock and rollin reelin on the floor
Tonight I’m gonna make you mine
You’re gonna dance with me until the end of time
Tonight we’ll sing and dance all night
And later on you’ll see I’m simply out of sight
And tonight I’m gonna love you
Tonight I’m gonna kiss you
Tonight you’re gonna feel it when we rock and rollin reelin on the floor

I’m gonna kiss you
You’re gonna feel it
Rockin Roll and Reelin ya ya ya ya ya
And when the morning finally comes
We’ll have some breakfast when the work's all done
And then we’ll sit and have a cup of tea
We’ll take a drive and see the scenery
And when the sunlight goes away
We’ll play some records while we dance away
And after listening to some Detroit soul
We’ll put on some ole fashioned rock and rock, rock and roll, ya ya

I Know a Girl
05:04

I know a girl who lives down on the street
She’s the kinda girl that you’d like to meet
If it’s love you’ve been looking for
Take a simple trip and knock on her door
She will love you above you to and fro
Anyway you want, yes even below
I’ve got a little trick that you can use
It’s a little gift that she can’t refuse
She’s gotta a funny weak spot just under her cheek
I’ll leave it up to you to find out which one I mean
Once you’re there you can leave your cares behind
Drink a little wine, it’ll clear up your mind
Now you’re done you can lay back at rest
Things seem peaceful at a quarter to three
Don’t look now I see a hand on your knee
Clear up your mind
Drink you some wine
Have a good time
It’ll make you fine

Yemenite

In the night so darn far away
Yemenite plans a war today
Evil thoughts in and out of head
Just as longs as they wind up dead
Through the night filled with sweat and toil
Yemenite sees the Congo soil
Sharpened blades shields of melted steel
All prepared for the next ordeal
Tanganyikan warriors song
Is OK if days are long
But they will die when night arrives
Or run for their dear bloody lives
Yemenite, Yemenite, Yemenite, Yemenite
We’ll shoot fire into their huts
And let the pigs come run to us
They will beg on bended knee
And pray that we will let them free
They will ask why they should die
And we will give our dreadful cry
Yemenite, Yemenite, Yemenite, Yemenite
In the night so darned far away
Yemenite plans a meal today
Hungry for his fresh new meat
Satisfied cause it tastes so sweet
Tanganyikan warriors song
Was no good when nights were long
And they died when night arrived
But could not run for their dear lives
Yemenite, Yemenite, Yemenite, Yemenite

New Born World
03:04

Close your eyes and open your mind
And tell me what you see
Every morning I wake up dead
Knowing that the world’s on fire
But I still have hopes in my head
That love is the thing to desire
Well let me tell you now
Close your eyes and open your mind
And tell me what you see
If you see a new born world
Then I will end to agree
All along the bloody fronts of war
People struggling to be free
They all know what they’re fighting for
The fighting for their destiny
Well let me tell you now
Love is the answer for peace in the land
We’ll walk towards that world, I’ll take you by hand
When the final deed’s done my friend
Happiness will flood the sky
For if our peace is just around the bend
We shouldn’t slow down and ask why
Well let me tell you know
|

And of my life
There’ll be no soul no spirit anyway
And here I’ll stay, every day, there’ll be no end
And what of you
You’ll make each life the way that you made mine
And here you’ll stay, every day, there’ll be no end
Please surround me when I’m ground please mother dear
Make me fade so things are made please mother dear
Rearrange the things that change, please mother dear
Far behind your life is gone
Far behind she’s waves her wand
Far behind an old life dies, a new one thrives
And I smile….
