LYRICS
Do you have fears when you listen with your ears
Palpitations start when you listen to your heart
Dropping jaw
Staring in awe
Amaze for days
Dazed n’ askew
Unfounded kind
Dumbfounded mind
Not just you… but for me, too

Do you hear cheers when you listen to the young
Does the feel heal when the song is heart sung

Chorus

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
An uneasy feeling sweeps the country
Will an uneasy feeling creep in to me
An uneasy feeling reaps the travesty
Will an uneasy feeling seep inside of me

The time is now
To find somehow
The goal — insight
Is the goal in sight

An uneasy feeling sweeps this century
An uneasy feeling keeps uncertainty
An uneasy feeling leap to insanity
An uneasy feeling deep inside of me

LYRICS
I want to believe in charity
See clearly faith and hope
Make hate into a rarity
To the naysayers — nope

Thankful to be alive
Now let’s strive for all to thrive

I want to believe in humanity
Feel dearly and interlope
Before love is a scarcity
Civilization at the end of a rope

Thankful to be alive
Now let’s strive for all to thrive

I want to believe in eternity
Bring infinity into scope
Will our race have longevity
Can our species forever cope

LYRICS
Just in case you wanted to watch
An opportunity to botch
On your gun’s stock another notch

And then Daniel said,
“It’s time for the rising of the dead.”

As your life passes you by
Do you ever wonder why
You’ll while away… then you’ll died

And then Daniel said,
“It’s time for the rising of the dead.”

Then, at the end of your day
What will you have to say?
“Sorry, Lord! I’ve lost my way.”

Daniel said, “It’s time for the rising of the dead.”

DANIEL 12
(1) “Daniel, at that time the great prince Michael will stand up. Michael is in charge of your people. There will be a time of much trouble, the worst time since nations have been on earth. But Daniel, at that time every one of your people whose name is found written in the book of life will be saved. (2) There are many who are dead and buried. Some of them will wake up and live forever, but others will wake up to shame and disgrace forever. (3) The wise people will shine as bright as the sky. Those who teach others to live right will shine like stars forever and ever.

LYRICS
Look at the domino
Standing in a row
And you know which way it’ll go

Domino in a row
Wobbling to and fro
Can not stop it… no, no, no

The taller they are
The further they fall
The bigger they are
The harder they are gonna fall

Oh, oh, oh, oh
There they go
Knocking each other down
You know it’s gonna be so
Jack falls down and breaks his crown

I had to think quick
But my head’s too think
Nothing ‘gainst hicks

Getting our kicks
Rhythm and licks

LYRICS
If one thing is for certain
It’s that love can reign again
All we need do is let the light in
Another thing that’s for certain
Doesn’t matter where you begin
Any time of day find the way to lovin’

As long as you’re livin’
The taken equals the given

If we choose to lose
How can we ever win
Wasting a life would be a sin
Ain’t about paying dues
In order to play the blues
Just open your heart and start feelin’

As long as you’re livin’
The taken equals the given

LYRICS
Round and round we go

Take a partner by the hand
Spin her ’round ’til ya understand
Round and round we go
You know…
Round and round we go

Until you know
Round and round we go

On your feet if you can stand
Spin her ’round ’til ya understand
Round and round we go
You know…
Round and round we go

Centrifugal force in command
Spinning ’round ’til I understand
Round and round we go
You know…
Round and round we go

The fruit is ripe upon the vine
Together let’s pick it right this time

We’ll make the most of what remains

LYRICS
The way you move your body
The way you jiggle and wiggle
The way you move your body
Wish for the way you swish

The way your body moves… soothes
The shapes your body makes… shakes

The way you move your body
The way you rattle n’ roll
The way you move your body
I lose all self-control

The way your body moves… soothes
The shapes your body makes… shakes

The way you move your body
The way the fabric drapes your shape
The way you move your body
From your ankles to your nape

The way your body moves… soothes
The shapes your body makes… shakes

LYRICS
You sleep all night and work all day
Just to collect your pay
On the meek and mild you prey
For yourself… what have you to say?

When The Book’s revealed
What will be your deal
Judgement Day for you
Whatcha gonna do?

You go out of your way to find a way
To spoil the art of play
When it comes to love, you say “nay!”
For yourself… what have you to say?

Chorus

The “I” of the third-eye
Can’t remain dry
Tears of fears over lack of “try”
For myself… I say “my, oh, my… why?”

LYRICS
No sense in growing older
To become hate’s soldier
Might as well stay innocent

Be the rock of all ages
Throughout history’s pages
Trying to shine your light
On all that’s right… alright!

No sense in growing colder
All calloused and harder
Might as well be decent
Warmhearted ambient

Chorus

No sense in growing further
Further from happiness
No sense in growing deader
Closer to lifelessness

LYRICS
The humane-less humans are at it again
Slash and burn wherever they’ve been

What on Earth is going on?
Where did they go so wrong

Earthlings in search of intelligent life
No cause or concern for morals or strife

What on Earth is going on?
Where did they go so wrong

Hey now people where have you been
No compassion for your fellow man

What on Earth is going on?
Where did they go so wrong

The human beings have lost their feelings
Defying the meaning of being beings

What on Earth is going on?
Where did they go so wrong

LYRICS
It’s a hell of a bargain
… a hell of a bargain
Dancin’ and singin’
Just for the cost of your freedom

What a great deal
When they steal
Your passion to feel
What is the cost of your freedom?

What grows in your garden
Hellish or heaven
Harvest again and again
Finding the cost of your freedom
