BROKEN DREAMS
Stop this war
You‘re always on the run.
Eyes are grim and full of secrets - loaded gun.
Watch the signs,
there is no other way.
You have to put your life in order - right away.
Winters night
Caught up in the light
Broken dreams - you must face up to your fears.
Either get up on your feet
or the beating is complete.
The rush of time - when it cuts you like a knife.
You are trapped inside your head
all your hopes are bleeding fast.
Are you tuff enough to turn your life around?
Lost in space
between your heart and mind.
So caught up in this Groundhog moment - all the time.
Place the blame,
a victim of your yourself.
Nobody is coming at you - break the spell.
Wounded soul
is out of control
Broken dreams - you must face up to your fears…
Childhood friend
We used to be so good
We used to rule the world

Touching The Void

TOUCHING THE VOID
Jilted like a rose in the dirt.
Mend your broken heart.
Misled through the anguish and hurt.
Make a brand new start.
Touching the void in the night for awhile,
you were lost in the storm and condemned without trial.
Think on your feet, now is time to go home,
you‘ve been running away so long.
Break out, free the soul from within.
Seek and you will find.
Come on feel the sun on your skin.
Leave the past behind.

CRADLE ROCK
If I was a cradle, would you let me rock?
If I was a pony, would you let me trot?
If I was an atom, swimmin' in the threes
If I go out my cell phone's dead, would you put you dogs on me?
If I was a baby, would you let me fall?
If I was an outlaw, would you have me caught?
If I was a tiger, would you have me caged?
If I was somebody else, would you act your age?
You'll miss out if you're, getting high - no thank you
Pray it doesn't happen, this time I'll make you see it
You and I gotta say, this is about me and you, yeah
If I was a nightlight, would you let me see?
If I was an anchor, it'd be news to me.
If I was a maybe, giving you next call.
If I tell you the truth now baby
Listen when I talk !

LOST AND FOUND
Tears they come falling
like a rain from the sky
Tears they come falling
like a rain from the sky
Soon as the sun sets I regret
making all this hue and cry
You are the best thing
that’s ever happened to me
You are the best thing
that’s ever happened to me
Well you’re treating me so much better now,
much better than ma used to be.
Sometimes I’m up
Sometimes I’m down
Sometimes I’m up
and sometimes I’m down
Sometimes a wise man
Sometimes a clown,
I know you will bail me out at lost and found
At the end of the rainbow
I can see a pot of gold
At the end of the rainbow
I can see your little honey pot of gold
Just put your head on my shoulder baby
let it go, ease my soul

EVERYTHING IS WRONG WITH THE WORLD TODAY
I‘m sick of working
and just getting by,
I‘m sick of settling for the crumbs of rich man‘s pie.
Down at the bottom,
we proudly march,
flanked by the fascists and their greedy oligarchs.
I know well the currency of life;
money, power, fame will ease your strife.
But don‘t you get the feeling that the system has been rigged.
Everything is wrong with the world today
- wrong with the world today
Yeah, yeah, yeah
See how they swindle,
see how they lie.
The privileged few are sucking other people dry.
In the name of progress,
they forced their way
and play their golf with our planet every day.
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way.”
(Charles Dickens - A Tale of Two Cities)

Money

MONEY
Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay and you're okay
Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team
Money, get back
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack
Money, it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the high-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet
Money, it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for pay rise it's no surprise
That they're giving none away

LADY LUCK (Just Give Me A Chance)
Coming, I feel you coming,
just like a sunlight through my window,
vibration in my shadow.
Falling apart and waiting
for you to come here a little closer,
In my life and make it sober.
Promises of new redemption,
let the fun begin.
I will give you all my loving, almost everything.
Darling, I need you darling,
don‘t leave me lying six feet under,
´better show me all your wonders.
C'mon over and be my friend,
together we can rip it up and start again.
Lady Luck, just give me a chance.
I feel it in the air somehow,
everything I ever wanted, here and now.
So Lady Luck, just give me a chance – one more time.
Darling, I need you darling,
don‘t leave me hanging like a spider,
I‘m your one and only rider.
Burning for some old sensation
underneath my skin
I will give you all my loving, almost everything.
Darling, I need you darling.
Don‘t leave me standing on my own now,
´got no skills or simple know-how
C'mon over and be my friend…

I Wanna Tell You A Story

I WANNA TELL YOU A STORY
Now, I wanna tell you a story
I’m gonna tell it right now
I wanna tell you a story about a girl I used to know.
And all her devious antics
when I was under her spell.
I wanna tell you a story about a girl I used to...
She sat alone in a lounge bar
and nursing Jack on ice.
She caught my eyes with a hot smile,
I was in paradise.
I didn‘t see how they spiked me,
I didin‘t spot the con.
When I woke up in pain, in a alley of shame,
no surprise all my money was gone.
Now, I wanna tell you a story…
Another fool down the drainpipe.
Another job well done.
Bonnie and Clyde in the making
and we had just begun.
I had a muse and a partner.
She was my femme fatale.
But it all came to halt, with her stab in my back
and they kicked my ass back in the jail.

SPOONFUL
It could be a spoonful of diamonds,
could be a spoonful of gold,
just a little spoon of your precious love,
Satisfies my soul.
Men lies about them
Some of them cries about them
Some of them dies about them
and everything’s a fightin’ about the spoonful
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful
It could fill spoon full of coffee
Could fill spoon full of tea
But a little spoon of your precious love
Could had enough for me
Men lies about them…
It could be a spoonful of water,
Saved from the deserts sand,
But one spoon of them fortifies.
Save you from another man.

PUNCH
When I was young, a stupid one
I saw the world as a battleground.
I used to fight, most every night
until I‘d grind the motherfuckers down.
The endless urge, right on the verge
you filled my life when things turned bad.
With love attack, you pulled me back,
it was the hardest blow I ever had.
Punch
The angry mob, the inside jobs
are raging on without control.
The truth or dare, it fills the air,
the dark is brewing in my troubled soul.
You have to find, a piece of mind
and let the music compromise.
The drum and bass, will mend your grace
and hit you right between your weary eyes.
Punch
I tell you once, I tell you twice,
I tell you three times to remind
Your baby‘s smile, your songs and rhymes
are the real things you leave behind
leave behind.
