LYRICS
I hope
I hope that we can
I hope we can begin
To have a good time… tonight
Alright?
(Really? Tell me….)
Blue skies
Bring on free rides
Tall tales
Wail in the wind
Bring on our song
Let spirits take wing
Here/hear spirits sing

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
What ever do you mean
Your bill is clean?
The effort that you make
Is outweighed by your take
The sands of time
Are counting down
A bit too late to
Turn around
The scales of justice
Balance out
Nails in coffins
Last we’ll count

When ever will we learn
The cost to earn
All our lives we live
Take over give
The sands of time
Are counting down
A bit too late to
Turn around
The scales of justice
Balance out
Nails in coffins
Last we’ll count

I heard from the wind
I know where you’ve been
Been at it again
I can tell from the smell
It didn’t go well
Bringing on hell

I can tell from the sky
You don’t know why
Death with to die
I can see with my eyes
No surprise to despise
Come to realize

The taste in the air
It shouldn’t be there
Do you despair?
The scent of the scene
You know what I mean?
Crossed into obscene

LYRICS
Can you hear them scream
Do you know what they mean
Did you listen to what they have to say?
Can you hear them shout
Do you know what it’s about
Their suggestion to bring on the day
(Bring on a new/knew day)
The Age of Astronomy
New age technology
The times
(The best of times)

Can you hear them scream
Do you know what they mean
Did you listen to what they have to say?
Can you hear them shout
Do you know what it’s about
Their suggestion to bring on the day
(Bring on a new/knew day)
Anthropologic
Man-made music
And rhymes
(Keeping with the times)

LYRICS
The trouble is…
Almost everybody
Cares most for nobody
What gives?
The trouble is…

The trouble is…
Take aim at our own foot
Pull the trigger. Shoot!
At home, pollute, pollute
Pull the trigger. Shoot!
What gives?
The trouble is…
Almost everybody
Cares most for nobody
What gives?
The trouble is…
Proud to be crowned
With a self-inflicted wound
Is it time to turn the tide
Overwhelming high pride
What gives?
The trouble is…
Almost everybody
Cares most for nobody
What gives?
The trouble is…

LYRICS
You search for complete
Look beneath your feet
Clue in plain view
Makes your heart beat
Yet, eludes you
(You elude

When it feels right
Gained the insight
Turn on your love light

You search for complete
Look beneath your feet
Clue in plain view
Makes your heart beat
Yet, eludes you
(You elude you)
If you stay young inside
You won’t try to hide
Love light will reside

You search for complete
Look beneath your feet
Clue in plain view
Makes your heart beat
Yet, eludes you

All the time feel fine
Become the sign of the time
Let your love light shine

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Barely move along
What could possibly go wrong?
Drones keep droning on
Filling time by standing in line
While at least
Missing the feast
On life dine
Passing time
By waiting in line
While at best
Laying to rest
A life of crime
Wasting time!

Procrastination
Until damnation’s upon
Drones keep droning on
Filling time by standing in line
While at least
Missing the feast
On life dine
Passing time
By waiting in line
While at best
Laying to rest
A life of crime
Wasting time!

When we take too long
Bringing on the final dawn
Drones keep droning on
Filling time by standing in line
While at least
Missing the feast
On life dine
Passing time
By waiting in line
While at best
Laying to rest
A life of crime
Wasting time!

LYRICS
Light-years passing by
Both far and near
If I get in the way
Do I have to move clear
Part particle and (part) wave.. a beam
Seems a dream

My light to them
Their light to me
If there’s anyone out there to see
(And know how to be)
Sending light-years your way
Thanks for sending me yours
Let’s hope forever the days endure

LYRICS
Come join in in song
You belong
Come join in in song
Sing along
The storm’s behind us now
Sunny skies ahead
And this my word and vow
To the light be led

Come join in in song
You belong
Come join in in song
Sing along
Water under the bridge
Take high upon the ridge
Think of what’s been said
To the light be led

Come join in in song
You belong
Come join in in song
Sing along
Let seas return to calm
Avert the atom bomb
May your foe, instead
To the light be led

LYRICS
After seeing no trace
Is that your caring face
Save the human race
All that jet fuel’s
Coming back to bite you
Right now
Tell those climate fools
How you’re gonna right it
Somehow

Realizing disgrace
Is that your concerned face
Save the human race
All that fossil fuel’s
Coming back to bite you
Right now
Tell those climate fools
How you’re gonna right it
Somehow

Be our saving grace
Put on your brave face
Save the human race
Don’t let the fools
Coming back to bite us
Right now
Tell those climate fools
How we’re gonna right it
Somehow

Save the… save the… save the human race

LYRICS
The way you’re all folded down
Can’t tell if you’re crying
Or if you’re praying
I’m just saying that either way
Unlikely to help save your day
Anyway
It’s up to you
To do what you need to do
It’s within you
To lift us to heights anew

The way you’re all folded over
Can’t tell if you’re lying
Or if you’re dying
I’m just saying that either way
Unlikely to help save your day
Anyway
It’s up to you
To do what you need to do
It’s within you
To lift us to heights anew
(And, within me, too)
It’s up to us
To do what we need to do
It’s within us
To lift us to heights anew

LYRICS
As it warms
Climate warns
The thin ice
Sliding on the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

As it thaws
Dropping jaws
The thin ice
Sliding on the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

As it melts
Tighten belts
The thin ice
Sliding on the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

Almost gone
Won’t be long
No more ice
Sinking in the precipice
The point we need to press
We made the mess
Better make the best
Of what’s left

If you’re going to slip up
At least you’re slipping up

At lease your outside

Can confide
You’re along for the ride

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
A sliver of sunlight
Pierces the darkest cloud
Enlighten
The darkest crowd
Out loud:
Mind tighten
Laser focus on us
Time to know to let go

The storm is thundering
Yet, it seems so far away
Wondering
How’s the others’ day?
Out loud:
Mind tighten
Laser focus on us
Time to know to let go

Scent of ionization
Spanks the backflow of air
Become aware
Realization
Out loud:
Mind tighten
Laser focus on us
Time to know to let go
