A Life Left Behind

And as you lay there,
Far from your loved ones,
The flaming thunder,
A world torn apart.
In distant trenches,
What did you hope for,
Bloody glory or just a new start.
You're heading home,
Rain or shine, Home to the life you left behind.
And you will be free, body and mind, You will be free to live.
Land where we're from,
Calls us home,
Back to the place where we were born.
And when I asked you in many long years,
What did you fight for,
You just looked at me.
You're heading home,
Rain or shine,
Home to the life you left behind,
You will be free, Body and mind,
You will be free, to live you're life,
Free.
And as I lie here,
Warm summer sunshine,
My friend I'm with you body and mind.
We're heading home,
Rain or shine,
Home to the life we left behind,
We will be free to live our lives,
Free as time.

100 Seconds

Reach out it's about time,
It's almost midnight,
Reach out to the other side,
Let's turn the tide.
And Oooh I don't know,
Why you you're so closed,
Can you not see, see beyond your greed,
And your dogmatic prose.
Reach out it's about time,
It's almost midnight,
Reach out to the other side,
Let's turn the tide.
The world is up in flames,
I know we're all to blame,
But you and your mottley crew,
Can't see the need for change.
They say 100 seconds that's all we've got,
Before the curtain falls down for good,
Don't expect the man to help,
He's only thinking of himself,
It's up to us to stop the ruin.
Reach out it's about time,
It's almost midnight,
Reach out to the other side,
Let's turn the tide.

Snake Oil
03:46
|

|
Smiling faces on the screen,
Telling me just what I need,
Snappy tiger a good mood,
Says that I should.
Start the brand new day,
With some frosty flakes,
'Cause he says they are great.
Brand new after shave,
Stinks like the grave,
Bound to get me that date,
In my fancy car drive a mile to work,
In those those empty streets,
Or is it all Snake Oil.
Catchy tune stuck in my head,
Seems it won't stop 'til I'm dead,
Jaunty jingle, tap my feet,
Buy, spend and eat.
Now it's time for lunch,
A cheesy burger's best,
Says the creepy clown,
And then a fizzy drunk,
'Cause you know it's real,
Just to wash it down,
Supermarket shelves, never seem to end
Have a tin of beans,
At least I know just what that means.
Supermodels, Sporty gods,
Fluffy kittens, jumping dogs,
Happy housewives, scrubbing floors,
Seems like that's no chore.
Surf the internet,
They know what I want even before I do,
Want a faster car, brand new guitar, a trip to Timbuktu,
And then I tell myself, they won't get to me,
Get their hands on my coin,
That looks nice that Snake Oil.

And if time is all we've got,
And the moment has been lost,
In a grey and distant world,
The past will not be forgot,
Fly.
Spirit of Django,
Played from the heart,
Time for a new life,
Part of the band.
Into the starlight,
Ready or not,
It's what you were made for,
Since you were born.
And will the child become a man someday,
Or will he be forever young,
And did the music fade and drown, maybe,
But you will always be that,
Sunburst gold touch,
Flying high,
And did it make you cry.
More isn't better,
Less as a form,
This fevered business took it's toll.
And will the child become a man someday,
Or will he be forever young,
And did the music fade and drown, maybe,
But you will always be that,
Sunburst gold touch,
Flying high,
And did it make you cry.
When all you days were done,
Did you cry for your time.
See what you had become,
But you sure had a life.
The music it never dulls,
Like the streets, cold and dark,
It lives still inside your soul,
And it flies,
Through my heart

Better Place
03:52

Uh huh Yeah yeah, I'm heading out,
Trying to get me an education, But my world's a mess,
You get to school in this sorry nation dodging bombs and poison gas.
The man comes knocking at my door again, are you one of us?
Well sure put the gun away.
Here's a nice vest vest, suits you just fine,
Try it on it's really going to blow your mind.
So I'm heading to the moon just to see what's there,
There's nothing there, I'm heading at the speed of light.
Ooh well finally, I'll be on my way,
I'm going to find me a better place to stay,
Ooh I'm taking charge of my destiny.
There's a man he'll get me out, he says he's got a boat,
Then he asks if I can swim, what no, well I'm sure you'll float,
Takes my money takes all I've got,
This guy's some kind of fiend,
Then he jams me in a waiting truck,
With all those other sardines.
When the war comes knocking at my door again,
I'm moving out, it's really messing up my brain,
Things are much better over there they say,
Even though it rains nearly every day,
The world's a much smaller place today,
Smaller than it was yesterday.
Ooh well finally, I'm heading on my way,
I'm going to find me a better place to stay,
Ooh I'm taking charge of my destiny.
Yeah I'm taking charge.

Fate
04:15

Our destiny,
Time will tell where we are bound.
Look to the past,
We've got to learn,
We've got to learn now.
Hope is not enough,
Why can't we see,
To fly into the sun,
Onto the stars,
We must be free.
This is our home,
Gave us life,
Came form the sea.
Look to the west,
As the sun sets on all we hold dear.
Life is too short,
Time will not redress our sins.
Constant warfare burns.
Is this how it's always been,
Or can we banish fate.
How do we leave,
This ancient path,
Leads straight to hell.
And shatter the chains of the past's Relentless spell.
Hope is not enough,
Why can't we see,
To fly into the sun,
Onto the stars,
We must be free.

The Forest Wind
04:22

Space, expands forever,
At least that’s what they say.
And time will never end, its the same stuff anyway.
But here on Earth,
Space is full - The time is now…
Another greedy dollar for a big fat wallet says burn those trees, they’re of no real use to anyone.
Another hungry burger on a big fat plate says its not my care, I think I’ll have another one.
Listen to the forest, to its voices in the wind.
Listen it will tell you…
Open you eyes,
Depoliticise,
Don’t vandalise,
Or monopolise.
And if you listened well to what the forest said,
Did it speak to you of hope and of destiny.
And if you plant a tree,
In the years to come, maybe it will set you free.
Listen to the forest, to its voices in the wind,
Listen to the ocean, to the life that’s within.
Listen they will sing you,
A billion year old song.
Make sure that the music plays on.

Box of Tricks

Little box of tricks, without you,
Life wouldn't be the same.
Like a warm gun in my hand,
You keep me safe yeah you keep me sane.
I sink my head into you wonders,
Your book of faces, twitter tweets,
A billion bytes of bull bombard me,
As I'm walking down the street.
When I look above me,
I see the sky so blue,
When I hold you close dear,
Yeah I know it's you,
There's a world of wonder,
It's outside my head,
Look up, look around,
See the world.
On the bus, on the train,
On the beach and in the mountains too,
All the heads are looking down,
At the pixels, red green and blue,
There's kitten cats on high trapeze,
Dancing to the latest beats,
And there's babies playing symphonies,
As I try to get across the street.
When I look above me,
I see the sky so blue,
When I hold you close dear,
Yeah I know it's you,
There's a world of wonder,
It's outside my head,
Look up, look around,
See the world.

Drift On
04:39

|
Won't you ask me,
If I'll stay with you one more day.
No way back,
Our last tack.
If there's a chance, take it,
Brave the expanse,
For my heart, your part,
Sailing on,
Drift on.
Now the game's begun,
It can't be won I realise.
She's stalling,
Home's calling.
If there's a chance, take it,
Brave the expanse,
For my heart, your part,
Sailing on,
Drift on.
Endless circles,
Traced upon the ocean waves,
And maybe I'll be with you again.
If there's a chance, take it,
Brave the expanse,
For my heart, your part,
Sailing on,
Drift on.
And as it ends,
It's time to resign.
For you my friends,
I'll take my rest in the brine.
No way back,
My last tack.
If there's a chance, take it,
Brave the expanse,
For my heart, your part,
Sailing on,
Drift on.
