Exit Plan

I feel the waves invite me in The warming motion Healing my soul and my skin I’ve been waiting for this moment to come I’ve been writing my exit plan I’m so high and so goodbye Yes I’ve been waiting for you to be strong For you to know the rights and the wrongs The air can rip and tear …

Poisonous Frogs

Wash your face Loosen up your hands And feel the wheel again Come back to the human race Shake out all the sand And make yourself again No it’s not easy when you’re lonely No it’s not hard to let them in These black dogs, snakes and poisonous frogs Don’t look too friendly But science shows us the ropes Charlatans …

She Buys Souls

Misled mother Traded in her baby’s health Now she’s the law And she’s ringing the fatal bell She buys souls She sells empty holes This is the store And she’s selling the spoils of war In another land A father weeps into his hands What did I say? Oh What did I do wrong? This crucifies my song And in …

Monomaniacs

Every eye locks onto this black parade Every mind’s in denial A poisoned chain of corruption walks on by The family faces force a smile The streets are red and the odium is black A mad mélange of monomaniacs In the name of divinity Take as much as you want – please And walk on and on and on and …

Joyride the Hearse

Come on you sorrowful gallows bird let’s throw a party for the end of the world Come get your fix with the heretics It’s never going to get any worse so let’s jump in and joyride the hearse And all you grief stricken girls and boys Top up your verses with some added white noise Watch the parade of the …

Fiammella

From the valleys of the west land To the suburbs of the south Everybody got opinion Everybody got a mouth From the mountains of the Cairngorms To the flats of the east People playing out their own plans Soaking up the peace I want to live in the land of many questions Where your faith is nourished by your soul …

Unfamiliar Skies

Caught by the sea Undercurrents got you and me Waking up on a different beach We’re just debris So hold onto anything in your memory We’re going to need to reconstruct the civilized beliefs This is the life and not the precursor This is the way to understand the world Don’t look for an answer In unfamiliar skies Just find …

Between the Cradle and the Grave

This day could bite you in a big way Could escalate the drama queen inside your being and shower you in bouquets This day could be your cabriolet Could elevate your peace of mind and help you find your very own judgement day – hurray Unfurl, don’t postpone it to another world No desire for immortality, set yourself free Don’t …

Standing High

I turned my back and you were everywhere The paper and the screen, the signals in the air That dirty sound that tried to silence you Will fade away while your voice comes shining, shining through You ripped them all to shreds the morning that you said I’d rather die standing high than live crawling down on my knees under …

Falling

I’m falling, falling for you I’m dying, to find out the truth A moment of great divine reaction I’m rising to see this view I’m falling for you My world is on fire My earth starts to move I’m falling for you Waiting for the tiniest spark Was worth every hour, every night, every day in the dark The atom …

Colder Than the Edge of Space

Walls of kings circle the cities Walls of faith circle the mind Live the lie and you may live forever I’m not designed to live so I can die Born in chains you’ll live forever Born into slavery but where is your mind walking free, yeah it can break the manacle can’t you see, you were designed for life I …

Fountains of Soul

I’ve made a vow to avoid my own reflection The quintessential cast of imperfection I’ve got a long long lonely road in front of me I see my home from the eyes of a reformed refugee There’s nothing much left to see The enterprising mother says yesterday is history we can build ourselves another A new drum will roll Banging …
