Judgement Day 04:09
lyrics

I've turned 'em on and I've turned 'em out Made 'em scream and made 'em shout All in an evil game Made no sense, had no shame I kept a life hidden way out of sight Knew it was wrong, thought I was right If only I'd looked in the mirror At what I was, where I'd been delivered I stand here naked before you With all my sin and my lies There was no way I could warn you About my love of goodbyes Oh... watch me blow my life away Oh... I'm wonderin' what it is I might say When the end comes down Will I rise up and call to my mother Will I fall down and pray You know I've heard some talk that the devil might take me I guess I'll be on that line Come Judgement Day It kept me high and it kept me blind To all the hurt I would leave behind You know it seems like the right thing to say I never meant to hurt you in any way I keep a light at my front door So the world knows I'm home I give it all but they want more But I must do this alone Oh... watch me blow my life away Oh... I'm wonderin' what it is I might say When the end comes down Will I rise up and call to my mother Will I fall down and pray You know I've heard some talk that the devil might take me I guess I'll be on that line Come Judgement Day....

Roller Coaster 04:31
lyrics

I got you to make my tears flow I got you to make my fears grow I got you baby to push my hands away Laugh in my face and then you walk away from me You got me, I guess you wonder why You got me to hang you out to dry You got me darlin' to shove your heart around Show no respect I just lay your love way down It's just the love that hurts but only when we breathe We're on the dry outskirts of a place we find hard to leave It's a Roller Coaster of a life Up and down spinning round It's a Roller Coaster such a thrill No one does it like we do and no one ever will And when the bell sounds and the seconds leave the ring It's just you and me we're doin' our thing It's a Roller Coaster of a life Up and down spinning round It's a Roller Coaster such a thrill No one does it like we do and no one ever will

Neon Love 04:25
lyrics

Civilised and sensible Highly indispensable Totally dependable When they're on their game Comfortable inscrutable Satisfying and suitable Faultlessly indisputable When they're on their game When they put out what they've got It's hard to still my mind It's a rare obsession with a fine profession And everyone's so kind I'm in love.... Neon Love Yes it's love.... Neon Love Eminently qualified Effortlessly by your side Take you for that special ride When they're on their game There's a big mirror ball and it just keeps on spinning out A thousand different dreams I catch the smell of some French perfume And I'm bustin' at the seams I'm in love.... Neon Love Yes it's love.... Neon Love I've got the face it's in the frame Another space another name... oh yeah So they au revoir and kiss the air As they fade to black from my awkward stare I turn my head to a rainy night Doors closed now they're out of sight From my eyes only as the memory stays It's up on the street and I'm on my way Back to the sideshow and all it's freaks Hey this is love I'll be back next week I'm in love.... Neon Love Yes it's love.... Neon Love...

ZOOM 03:51
lyrics

I live in the darkness I walk through the night Not much impresses me not much makes me feel alright I feed on a feeling I drink from a sight I live for those moments when I fall into the light I was busy just a livin' my life away... on my own Then I got a message and I should say I'm comin' home And I go ZOOM when she walks into a room ZOOOOOOOM.... ZOOM Yes I go ZOOM when she walks into a room ZOOOOOOOM... I live with my feelings and I cope with my fears I played lifes solitaire and sometimes I've played it in tears But then I'm lifted up and the sky just ain't high enough She asks the questions of me and I answer with a sigh You know I had a vision that came to me one long night In the arms of a woman who made me see What was right And I go ZOOM when she walks into a room ZOOOOOOOM.... ZOOM Yes I go ZOOM when she walks into a room ZOOOOOOOM... I've been searchin' I've been searchin' oh yeah I've been searchin'...... And I go ZOOM when she walks into a room ZOOOOOOOM.... ZOOM Yes I go ZOOM when she walks into a room ZOOOOOOOM...

Why Can't We Just Be Real 04:17
lyrics
buy track
Well I saw the moon and there was no time To keep the tide from going down And my shadow moved beyond my shape And I was raised above the ground So I rose above the city lights And the people were exposed But I kept my head and I did it right And many questions were posed Why do we love and why do we hate Why do we kill and steal If there is a god why do so many people cry Why can't we just be real Well I saw mothers weep and children wail I saw men who didn't care And I saw politicians please themselves And their nests were rarely bare So the masses bowed and prayed to god To help their souls be clean But the truth is there with a wink and a nod And refuses to be seen So why do we love and why do we hate Why do we kill and steal If there is a god why do so many people cry Why can't we just be real Oh all this time and nothing much has moved There's a madness in this life that takes us down We take a part but if it suits us we don't know So we play it in the dark til someone turns the lights on Well there's a time and place for all to pass But the man says we can't fly So there's a long and lonely road ahead Keep walkin' don't ask why Why do we take and why do we beg Why not say how we feel If there is a time for love it's now Why Can't We Just Be Real..

My Old Guitar 04:00
lyrics

I've got this feeling I'll try to explain It's like a firework going off inside my brain It's the words And it's the tunes It's my music that can take me to the moon Oh yeah... I've got this spirit In my hands And a dream that keeps me making my own stand Sometimes I'm tired I get so beat My Old Guitar it keeps me standing on my feet And so I ride these groovy wheels Never know which way that they may turn I only know it's real Nothin' dare keep me down Cause while I'm rollin' with lifes punches I just play my 'tar and sing my cares away Some say there's heaven Some say there ain't I'd rather make one here on earth than have to wait I wear it like a golden ring I thank my heaven every chance I get to sing And so I ride these groovy wheels Never know which way that they may turn I only know it's real Nothin' dare keep me down Cause while I'm rollin' with lifes punches I just play my 'tar and sing my cares away.....

Move On 03:46
lyrics
buy track
I'm over keeping all the love I have away from harm You know I know it really doesn't matter But there's something in the air and I don't like the smell of it Face it, wise up, it only takes some courage Move On It's such a pity when two people who are really hip Make a call that ends something they thought they had But things are changin' every minute every hour With long days and longer nights nothin' seems to work Move On I've got to Move On In my mind I turn to the person Who once would complete my life But when you're living alone You learn a lot about you Yes you do... And like an insect to a flame I kept returning to the neat and the light that was blinding me from what was real I learned a lesson when I realised that love can be the one thing that hurts.... when it really shouldn't There was always someone strong to lean on In my former life But when you're living alone You learn a lot about you Yes you do... So there I was in a room filled with voices And they would not be silent and they screamed and cried I tried to beat my fists against the walls but they were moving Out and away until I was free I turned the key and opened the door to my ever changing life But when you're living alone you sure do learn When you live alone you sure do learn When you're living alone You learn a lot about you...

Vandalise Love 04:58
lyrics

I can't sleep in that bed no more It's just so empty on one side And I can't walk thought that park no more It always takes me for a ride And I don't want to go nowhere Anywhere that makes me stare Into the eyes of what might have been I realise I Vandalise Love I don't drive down that street no more Cause that street ain't got no signs for me And I can't play those songs no more Cause I know they're just not mine You see I don't have that much That I can see or touch That don't remind me of our time together I realise I Vandalise Love The only words I sing are sad The only dreams I have are bad I'll try again tomorrow and see if I can smile I wonder is there anyone Can there be someone for me Is it what I need or do I just be free Lonely days turn to lonely nights Lonely nights turn me to stone You know I wonder how I'll be If I'm left out here alone Cause I can tell you why Why it is I'll never try to give my heart away again You see I realise how I Vandalise Love

Your World 04:29
lyrics

You know the last time I tried I stumbled and I fell and then I lied It's OK is what I said And I wandered down a pathway in my head You know the last time I moved I punched the air and tried so hard to prove It's OK I've been misled And I wandered down a pathway in my head Yes I wandered down a pathway in my head Tell me some lies and I won't be surprised When you step in my space Your World is etched upon my face You know the last time I cried I staked my heart out in the sun to fry It's OK it's what I've read And I escaped onto the pathway in my head You know the last time I learned I watched a man with a message as he burned It's OK his good book said And he joined me on the pathway in my head Yes he joined me on the pathway in my head It's a mood it's a feeling That send my senses reeling all over the place Your World is etched upon my face All this time I was looking for love But there's something that gets in my way Inside my head there's a pathway that keep me Safe in my longing clear in whatever I say You know the last time I smiled I wondered if it really was worthwhile I said hey as my smile fled And I chased it down the pathway in my head You know the last time I died There was a woman right there with me by my side It's OK he's only dead And she led down a pathway in her head Yes she led me down a pathway in her head You're telling me why and it's making me cry But I take it with grace Your World is etched upon my face... All this time I been looking for love All this time I been looking for love All this time I been looking for love All this time...

Blind Faith 04:15
lyrics
buy track
I met a woman on a train to where I'll never know She told me jokes she shared her coke she called herself a ho She tied a purple scarf around my neck and said No doubt about it boy I'd rather be here than dead Hey.... This is what I say Hey.... It's the great white way I carved a name into a seat in a city park I couldn't read the name I wrote because it was so dark I left a message with a drunk to get in touch with me I haven't heard from him I guess he's getting on nicely Hey.... This is what I say Hey.... It's the great white way I looked down at a man and he looked right back up at me He couldn't frown he couldn't smile this man could hardly see Where was he from, what as his name, how did he reach this place I'll never know, but I think he's keeping me a space Hey.... This is what I say Hey.... It's the great white way I wave the flag of hope I wave it with sincerity I run it up the pole and see how it comes back They tear it down they burn it up they keep it in it's place Seems the only true vision Is My Blind Faith.... I took a journey on a highway that was thick with dust A native man said he was dying I said if you must The moon was bright it shone its light directly onto him He looked alive he gave me five and checked out with his sin Hey.... This is what I say Hey.... It's the great white way I've tried love, I've tried hate, I've tried solitude I found the reason for my being was ineptitude I keep my distance from the population generally I find it easier than livin' with society Hey.... This is what I say Hey.... It's the great white way I wave the flag of hope I wave it with sincerity I run it up the pole and see how it comes back They tear it down they burn it up they keep it in it's place Seems the only true vision Is My Blind Faith.... My Blind Faith....

Black and White 03:46
lyrics
buy track
I wish the world was Black and White I want all day to be all night I wish the sun would move away And leave me space to play In a world that's black and white and grey I see a street light in a lane I see them huddled in the rain I want to set their colours free And watch them sail upon a sea That rolls in black and white and grey...hey.... We all roll around like crazy coloured balls Bouncing off each other and the walls I separate from the pack I place my cue into the rack And take my leave in black and white and grey It's a rich man that doesn't see A street man on his knees Life's a fountain filled with blood Champagne served with mud Better viewed in black and white and grey...hey...
