New Future

All your dreams
Gone awry
Nobody's spared
Yeah, these are strange times
All your hopes
Gone up in smoke
Nobody's laughing
This is not a joke
All the leaves are falling
It's another new year
Making plans and resolutions
Won't hide your disillusions
Run right along
Hold my hand
I don't know the way
But we'll get there
Days are long
We can't see the end
Are we running out of time
I don't really care
All the leaves are falling
It's another new year
Making plans and resolutions
Won't hide your disillusions
Seems like nothing's changing
But the wind is blowing
We all need a new direction
To live a new future

Silent Worlds

I'm gonna leave this troubled year behind
Gonna take what's good and gonna bring it back to life
I'm gonna let the raging feelings slide
Got nothing much to lose
Gonna take what's yours and mine
And time is passing fast
Too fast for it to last
No time to let it rest
The time is ours
I'm gonna throw my sordid blues behind
Gonna catch a wave and let the silent worlds collide
And time is passing fast
Too fast for it to last
No time to let it rest
The time is ours
I'm gonna throw my sordid blues behind
Gonna catch a wave and let the silent worlds
Gonna catch a wave and let the silent worlds
Gonna catch a wave and let the silent worlds collide
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

You Calm Me Down

You've made a difference
If not in this world
At least in my life
You calm me down
Now I don't know why you're in disguise
Lift up your veil and let your spirit soar
Shine on
I want to feel the sun in my eyes
Just lie on my back
Get stereo high
I want to feel the sun in my eyes
Just lie on my back
Get stereo high
And you there
Yeah you're there
You sing me a song
Brighten up the day
You give me the light that shines my way
You calm me down
You give me a smile
That takes away
The blues and the pain
You keep me sane
You calm me down
You sing me a song
That takes away
The blues and the pain
You keep me sane
You calm me down
I want to feel the sun in my eyes
Just lie on my back
Get stereo high
I want to feel the sun in my eyes
Just lie on my back
Get stereo high
I want to feel the sun in my eyes
Just lie on my back
Get stereo high
I want to feel the sun in my eyes
Just lie on my back
Get stereo high
And you there
Ya you're there
And you say it's time to come home

Stronger (Song For Jacq)
03:49
|
|
||
|
Tired of being down and out
Had to get my feet on the ground
I've paid my dues
It's time to live
Had to rise above the noise
Far away from the girls and boys
I had to learn
To fight again
The heartbreak, can get you down
But the heart gets stronger when you come around
People try to comprehend
What they just can't understand
They choose to live in the same old ways
When you start to live your dreams
Things may not be what they seem
But the passion fills your life everyday
The heartbreak, can get you down
But the heart gets stronger when you come around
Don't give up on meaning
Don't give up on life
Don't give up on leaning on what's right
The heartbreak, can get you down
But the heart gets stronger when you come around

Where's Your Heart?
03:09
|
|

Oh my, IG star
Posing in your supercar
You’re just killing time
Spread your wings and learn to fly
Don’t believe the little lies
The earth's not flat, it's not classified
Fast cars and limousines
Flashy clothes on Halloween
Don’t tell me where you’ve been
Get your fix on nicotine
Quench your thirst with bubble tea
Whatever
Get your kicks
Once you dreamed to play a part
Take me to the start
When did it fall apart?
Once you dared to play your part
Take me to the start
Oh darling where’s your heart?
Oh tell me where’s your heart?
Fake news and Donald Trump
Built a wall and a toxic dump
Eat love pray and punch
Brexit vote and killer virus
New lockdowns and quarantines
They know where you've been
K-pop stars and YouTube streams
A billion likes, oh what a tease
You’re so hard to please
Cruising down the empty streets
Where poets dream and lovers meet
Oh darling can’t you see?
Once you dreamed to play a part
Take me to the start
When did it fall apart?
Once you dared to play your part
Take me to the start
Oh darling where’s your heart?
Oh tell me where’s your heart?
Oh darling where’s your heart?
Oh tell me where’s your heart?

Restless Heart
02:38
|
|

You crawl up in the morning
You wish you could be sleeping
Another day has come your way
It's time to go on
You say you don't need money
Only good company
It doesn't matter what you do
You just gotta move
All the questions keep on cropping up
There's no answers anymore
Only thing you know is your restless heart
Needs a resting place
The sun's on the horizon
The train will be arriving
It doesn't matter where you go
It all ends the same
Come back to what you know
You never can go too low
Just hanging on but make it seem
Like everything flows
All the questions keep on cropping up
There's no answers anymore
Only thing you know is your restless heart
Needs a resting place
Needs a resting place

Lucid Dreams
04:48
|
|
||
|
Walking through these empty roads
With a cough-drop can, looking for spiders
The games we used to play
In our minds we travelled past the hills and valleys
To find answers
But no one is to say
With every door we open
Hoping to find treasures through our slumber
The sound of mindless banter
From an old and crippled panther
Moving in slowly like a hunter to a prey
Calling out your name
It will never be the same
Placid scenes of flowing streams
Like a child that builds sandcastles on the water
They’re just lucid dreams that fade away
Passing through the vivid landscapes
On the shoreline into yonder
Feeling every breath of wind
That makes my heart grow fonder
Fonder of you
You know it’s true
Remembering the times
We crossed the bridge and talked about the weather
How it used to be so warm
But now it’s getting so much colder
Does it even matter?
Now it’ll never rain again
Calling out your name
It will never be the same
Placid scenes of flowing streams
Like a child that builds sandcastles on the water
They’re just lucid dreams that fade away
We learn to count our blessings
As we live our lives each day
To catch the sunlight on a rainy day
You can never walk away from the destiny that
Calls upon us all to heed the call
And take the fall
And have a ball
The new day dawns
And dew is raining down the apocalyptic forest
The morning grows, the rooster crows
Then suddenly we realize that we are
Just a fading memory we call “yesterday”
Calling out your name
It will never be the same
Placid scenes of flowing streams
Like a child that builds sandcastles on the water
They’re just lucid dreams that fade away
They’re just lucid dreams that fade away
Lucid dreams that fade away

It's Not Easy
04:00

It's not easy
To be loved
It's not easy
To be anything
When your world is crashing
And you're hanging
On to something
That you want to live for
Hanging on to anything
to live for
It's not easy
To be strong
It's not easy
To get up
When the weight is on your shoulder
And you're getting older
While the world is moving on
Losing touch with everything
to live for
It's not easy
To be free
It's not easy
To do anything
When you have noone around
Your feet is sinking
In the quicksand
And you have no rope
Hanging on to anything
that gives you hope
It's not easy
To give love
It's not easy
To open your heart
When the world is cold
And oh so cruel
Everything you know
Is going under
The days of being young and wild
Are over
Oh my friend
This cannot be the end
Oh my friend
This cannot be
It's so easy to give up
It's so easy to give in
I won't let them win
And stand over me
With their silly grin
And plastic skin
Get away from me
We'll build another world
My friend, just you and me
And we'll keep on kicking
Till our days are over
And we'll keep on rocking
Till our days are over

Here's the song you said I'd never write for you
Until the day I die
My heart laid bare for all the world to see
Though I tried to keep you by my side
Your mind is on some other guy
And every word I speak
Just comes out wrong
And I'll take you
Yes I beg you
And I'll make you every day
A love so high you don't ever want to come down
To the best of my intentions
You will have all my affections
I will let you in and throw away the key
Say goodbye to all your sorrows
Don't have to wait until tomorrow
It's such a lovely day to start a brand new slate
And I'll take you
Yes I beg you
And I'll make you every day
A love so high you don't ever want to come down
So here's the song you said I'd never write for you
Until the day I die
My heart laid bare for all the world to see
Can't you see?

Out Of My Mind
05:31

|

She's gone without a word
Left a trail of lipstick traces in my world
And the scent of her sweet perfume
Still lingers in the room
And the sound of her footsteps echo in my ear
All those years
Don't they all seem so far away
And Van
You're the man
I've got Moondance on the stereo for my soul
And the strains of Caravan
Stoned me like jelly roll
I come running into the mystic
When I'm cold
These dreams of you
Don't they all seem so far away
Feel like I'm wasted
Feel kind of jaded
Can't seem to get you out of my head
Look up at the stars
They don't change for a million years
Not like you
And I thought you were my bestest friend
Someone with a helping hand
Was I blinded by your laughter and your tears
All those years
Don't they all seem so far away
Feel like I'm wasted
Feel kind of jaded
Can't seem to get you out of my head
Out of my head
Out of my head
Feel like I'm wasted
Feel kind of jaded

A Lullaby (For You)
05:08
|
|

|
You're losing sleep
Counting sheep
You're losing all of your senses
You look at me
I can see
The light and beauty in your face
This is just a little song, a lullaby
This is just a simple song to help you get by
Oh I hope you find some comfort in
the love your friends and family give
Like this lullaby to help you get by
Well here I am
You're not alone
I'm right here if you need a home
When it's cold outside
Find the light
It will guide you through the night
This is just a little song, a lullaby
This is just a simple song to help you get by
Oh I hope you find some comfort in
the love your friends and family give
Like this lullaby to help you get by
You cannot hide
The hurt inside
All the things they said
Playing in your mind
Don't you hide
What's inside
Come take my hand
And stay for awhile
Let's dance tonight
It'll be alright
The dreams you dream just hold them tight
Your smile's so wide
Such a pretty sight
Baby don't give up this fight
This is just a little song, a lullaby
This is just a simple song to help you get by
Oh I hope you find some comfort in
the love your friends and family give
Like this lullaby to help you get by
