No one seems to know what kind of a trial we've been marching through
Blood, swet, tears, bitterness and sorrow are engraved on our souls
We would like to see you crawling through the same decade of disbelief
Then you would know what it feels like being isolated
Why should we have to keep our dreams concealed
Like everyone else around
We onlytrust in the voice of our heart
Renaissance, bound in blood forever
Like the plague inside our veins
We refuse to lie to ourselves
To deny what we are
We sacrifice everything around us
To reach what we want
Why should we have to keep our dreams concealed
Like everyone else around
We onlytrust in the voice of our heart
Renaissance, bound in blood forever
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
Boy, there's so many things to give
I've been aware of your charms for so long
And there's nothing that you can do
To stop me from coming around, round
To your house, to your house
To your house, to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'll be your queen upon a throne in your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
You can build it from bricks and stone
But there's still no point in being alone
So unlock your door, I'm coming through
'Cos this heart's got a message for you
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
To your house, to your house, to your house, to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'll be your queen upon a throne in your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home to your house
By land and sea, I'm coming home to your house
Come fly with me, I'm comin' home to your house
I'll be your queen upon a throne in your house
I'll make you scream aloud with joy in your house
I'll bring you gifts, cash money too to your house
I'll bring it all on home to you to your house
There'll be no black, there'll be no white in your house
There'll be no day, there'll be no night
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy
Have mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy
Mercy on me, mercy on me
Mercy on me, mercy on me
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
I'll be your queen upon a throne in your house
I'll make you scream aloud with joy in your house
I'm coming home, I'm coming home to your house
There'll be no war, there'll be no war in your house
I'll bring you peace, I'll bring you love to your house
This is my renaissance
This is my one response
This is the way I say I love you
This is my second chance
This is my one romance
This is the cutting line
On which I stand to show you
It happened fast in a flash just this evening
I hit the gas, horn blast, brakes screaming
Car crash, broken glass, broke my dreaming
I hit the dash so fast my ears are ringing
My sister's on the right side just slightly leaning
I grabbed her hand hard until she started breathing
My brothers in the back jaw cracked from the beating
The breath in my chest has slipped and I'm sinking
Blinking through diamond spider webs of cracked glass
I'm trying to remember all the words you said in the past
Through the ash, siren screams and red beams
I hear you sing softly to me
I can be the wall when you fall down
Find me on the rocks when you break down
I heard it in the song when you call out
But I got to say now it's got to change
This is my broken heart
This is my bleeding start
This is the way I've come to know you
This is my winding road
This is my way back home
This is the narrow door you know that I will walk through
I got a letter today of why she went away
She said 'it's better this way, you knew I never could stay'
Half empty closets and frames, all that's left to my name
As she left in the rain and left my heart on a chain
Three years I've built this two face tower for hours on a lease
You gave me one yellow flower that said rest in peace
IN pieces I've broken open to think too much or just enough
Alone to trust midst the rubble and the dust
Humbled, it took this much to break down and understand
Spent half my life on castles made of sand
Tossed in the breakers in the palm of your hand
Now I can finally stand
This is my renaissance
This is my one response
And I looked to the air
But the breeze was not cold
I sought for your hand
To hold unto me
I lay awakened
The dew on my brow
Come take my life
God, I'm dying
And the spirits of slumber
Lulled at my side
They tormented my world
And praised at my grave
I gave them a portion
In pursuance of my peace
But they took it and broke it
Where is my hope?
Elegent, undying
I am words, I am speaking
I never heard my comclusion
Lost in my confusion
In illusion
Lost inside the picture frame
I'm not to blame
I didn't see the black flame
I'm not ashamed
It's poetry the black flame
I'm rearranged
It's changing me the black flame
Burns my blackened brain
I am strong, I am leaving
I never knew I'd feel the need so
Where I'll go, I'll turn the flow
I could not know
Screams inside the burning pain
With spinning head
It's underhand the black flame
It lies inside
I turned and I ran the black flame
On me it fed
I understand the black flame
Burns my blackened brain
Run from me, don't you see
That we are one and I'm a part of you
Get away, anyway
I'm still a secret in the heart of you
And I'm burning in your soul
Now I'm weak, I am losing
I never thought I'd stop trying
I'm just a lie, just a sign, just a cry
Just a symbol of the game
Suspended pain
I cannot face the black flame
Intended dear
I cannot trace the black flame
Extended
Reaching into space the black flame
I always knew we were meant to be lovers
I always knew we were made for each other
I always knew there was no one else could make me feel this way
But when you go away
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The summer sun always shines when you're with me
I feel its warmth in the love that you give me
I feel your touch and I know that's where I always want to stay
But when you go away
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
When we're apart
The rain, it falls
The wind, it calls
For you, my love
Right from the start
When our love was young
The rising sun
The only one was you, my love
I always knew we were meant to be lovers
I always knew we were made for each other
I always knew there was no one else could make me feel this way
But when you go away
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Each time we say goodbye
The angels cry
Shadows darkness follows quiet shadows
You walk beside a shadow
Strangers, people passing constant strangers
You walk beside a stranger
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?
Sadness finds the lonely silent sadness
Finds them hard with sadness
Seeking growing you will find with seeking
Knowing you are seeking
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
Why don't you share your love?
Seasons, nature's pattern of the seasons
Changing with the seasons
Loving peace will come to all with loving
Living lives with loving
Spare some love
Why won't you spare some love?
Share your love
From the start through all time, here upon the wind
Disorder reigned hand in hand with spring
Earth and the fire, air and the water
Molded the sea and landscape
Moving, flowing with no seeming purpose
Endlessly changing, survival
Spring into summer, time for reflection
Time to grow
World full of meaning, place re-arranging
Face ever changing for all our lives
These are our roots and it's our way
We grow, we reap and sow
We reap and sow the seasons of our day
Within the heart of all things born that day
The autumn scene brings the winters way
Colors are shading, misting and fading
Turning toward changes living
Each time the past and the future
Holding together tomorrow
Winter to springtime, a season for planning
Time to learn
World full of stillness, world ever waiting
Anticipating for all of our lives
These are our roots and it's our way
We grow, we reap and sow
We reap and sow the seasons of our day
We fall, while aiming so high
We crawl, flying
Man has North, South, East and West
Man has, trying
A song for all seasons through
Man has North, South, East and West
Man has music
Man has North, South, East and West
Man makes music
A song for all seasons through
Song for all seasons, song for all our time
Through her eyes
See the sky
Bathed in color
Running hard towards what used to be
Losing ground in changes sliding endlessly
Reaching out for mirrors hidden in the web
Painting lines upon your face inside instead
Sounds so bad the music's flat on every line
Songs of blackened lace know you're dying all the time
Sounds so bad you let the music take your soul
Slipping through the day, lose the only way you know
Running hard towards what used to be
Losing ground in changes sliding endlessly
Reaching out for things you want to see
Find reflections of insane reality
La la la
La la la
La la la
La la la
La la la
La la la
Running hard towards what used to be
Losing ground in changes sliding endlessly
Reaching out for shadows passing through
Let It Grow
Renaissance
Taking time to find the right line
Talking easy with the thoughts you want to share
Leaning down, feel you knowing in my mind
Stealing down, going down, feel you growing in my mind
Chorus:
It's got to be slow
Taking love the only way
It's got to just flow
Making love and taking time to let it grow
Finding ways to find the real you
Spending days just holding hands and feeling free
Play around, watch the sunshine coming through
Come around, stay around, watch the loving grow with you
Chorus
Loving you the love you give me
Living loving with the things we have to share
Poetry, hear the words you say to me
Stay with me, here with me, keep our loving flowing free
From: sergio souza
Travel the days of freedom
Roads leading everywhere
Come with me now, and show how you care
Follow the dying embers
Cross on the paths they lay
Breath of the past, the earths yesterday
Colours are fading starlight
Silver the way to find
Walking the shadows, there in our mind
Changing the order slowly
Leaving the mist of time
Fingers are holding, fragments of mine
Chorus:
Clear your mind, maybe you will find
That the past is still turning
Circles sway, echo yesterday
Ashes burning, ashes burning
2nd Part:
Imagine the burning embers
They glow below and above
Your sins you won't remember
And all you'll find there is love
Ashes are burning brightly
The smoke can be seen from afar
So now you're seeing how far
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
I wish on all the people who really dream
And I'm wishing on tomorrow praying never comes
And I'm wishing on all the loving we've never done
I never thought I'd see
A time when you would be
So far away from home
So far away from me
Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go from me, you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you but I know
That in the game of love you reap what you sow
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together whether or never
I feel it's time we should make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, whether or never
I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow what it means
And I wish on all the rainbows that I see
And I wish on all the people we've ever been
And I'm hoping on all the days to come and days to go
And I'm hoping on days of loving you so
I'm wishing on a star
I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
I'm wishing on a star
Falling around me lay parts of my life
I'm leaving them all behind
We leave with the night
Living in strange ways has cast me aside
I cry in another world now
I must search for all my days gone by
Dreamer, lead me ever closer
Here is where I belong
Inside my own existence
I have been for so long
Voices that call to me, lay silent to hide
Soon I will hold them close
With words from my eyes
Living in hope of you, loving you now
You are my waking thoughts
I lay with you in my sleeping hours
Dreamer, lead me ever closer
Here is where I belong
Inside my own existence
I have been for so long
I stand and gaze upon your smile
A deep reflection held in my soul as a child
To grow within the warmth of love long forgotten
Tears flood your eyes in a moment
Dreamer, I become as one within you
To lose you far away
I stay inside your heaven now, no longer lonely
Once more I'm safe in your arms
To feel your touch across my mind
Fills me only full of desire for my being
Dreamer, really all that needs a meaning
To feel us sail away
Dreamer, lead me ever closer
Here is where I belong
Inside my own existence
Come along with me
Down into the world of seeing
Come and you'll be free
Take the time to find the feeling
See everything on it's own
And you'll find you know the way
And you'll know the things you're shown
Owe everything to do the day
Come along and try
Looking into ways of giving
Maybe we will fly
Find a dream that we will live in
We'll look into the eyes of time
Past ages have turned to dust
And born somewhere on the line
The loving that grows with us
Come into the day
Feel the sunshine warmth around you
Sounds from far away
Music of the love that found you
Th seed that you plant today
Tomorrow will be a tree
And living goese on this way
It's all part of you and me
Chorus:
See the carpet of the sun
The green grass soft and sweet
Sands upon the shores of time
Of ocean mountains deep
Part of the world that you live in
Dollars down the penny drain
Frozen in the clouds
Dream away the last of pain
In waterfalls of sounds
Float across the icy pools
Leaves with curl and sway
Now our mind is floating cool
And you can find the way
Dancing without moving now
Growing with your soul
One with all around you now
Related to the all
Purple mist around your hair
Eyes are fading blue
Smiling into everywhere
Love is coming through
Chorus:
Can you understand you can really understand
When the darkness comese you still shine
Open up your eyes and make the day shine sunshine now
Open up your dreams and make the way shin sunshine now
Can you understand you understand
Can you understand you understand
Open up your life and make your lifetime sunshine now
Open up your soul and make your lifeline sunshine now
Can you understand you understand?
Out at daybreak to the sun
Seas are drifting glass
The tides were turning to the storm
Winds were moving fast
Women waiting at the harbour
Silent stand around
Weather storms another day
For men the sea had found
Fishermen were laying nets
The barrels spread the bait
The seagulls warningg echoed round
Winds that wouldn't wait
People gathered at the harbour
Waiting for the tide
Eyes half closed against the spray
And tears they cannot hide
Hulls were creaking crashing sails
Rains were slating down
The oilskins flapping, decks awash
Slanting turning round
Thunder roaring at the harbour
Women drawn in fear
Huddle up to wait the time
And pray the sky will clear
Howling winds and the raging waves
Cracked upon the boats
And torn from safety, torn from life
Men with little hope
Ghostly echoes at the harbour
Whispering of death
Women weeping holding hands
Of those they still have left
Chorus:
Shadows falling at the harbour
Women stand around
Weather storms another way
Break the ice, you can help me understand
Take the night into your own hands
Burn the flame, ignite the love we used to know
Learn to change, we've got to let the past go
Start to heal 'cause we don't have to fall
Hearts that feel can have it all
Take one step closer, let love start over
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
We'll come back stronger and hold on longer
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
Unashamed, it can't be wrong to try again
No one's to blame but just a quiet end
Smile for me 'cause heaven's not so far away
I'll believe that this is where you should stay
Start to heal 'cause we don't have to part
Hearts that feel can have it all
Take one step closer, let love start over
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
We'll come back stronger and hold on longer
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
Start to heal 'cause we don't have to part
Hearts that feel can have it all
Take one step closer, let love start over
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
We'll come back stronger and hold on longer
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
Take one step closer, let love start over
Shoot one more arrow through my heart
We'll come back stronger and hold on longer
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Destination outward bound
I turn to see the northern lights behind the wing
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Horizons seem to beckon me
Learned how to cry too young, so now I live to sing
Know it's hard away from you
Traveling roads and passing through
It's not for money and it's not for fame
I just can't explain, sometimes it's lonely
Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights
Past or future, here or there
Shelter comes in words from you, so talk to me
I hear your voice, it comforts me
In morning dreams I take your hand, you walk with me
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
Peace enfolds the still night air
Home again I look for you and find you there
Destination homeward now
Take the easy way, bring me down
Making the hard way now I see
Hard to be really free, I'm missing you near me
Marking the space between the days
Early hours pass away
I sing to you of northern lights
I sing for you of northern nights
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
They guide me back to you
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
They guide me back to you
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
They guide me back to you
The northern lights are in my mind
They guide me back to you
The northern nights are in my eyes
The last that ever she saw him
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night
Far away on the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was the silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through
I say, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I say, I pray
See you in heaven one day
Four a.m. in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Stardust glowing in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night?
And she couldn't find how to push through
I say, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I say, I pray
See you in heaven one day
Caught in the middle of a hundred
And five, ooh, ooh, ooh
The night was heavy and the air was alive
But she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night
Far away on the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Gold, said the man to the many
I want money and I'll make it grow
I will count my worth in gold
Wealth untold, I'll sell my soul
Midas Man
Midas Man
Sold, said the man to the many
Work for me, I'll only steal your time
I will count my money out
There's no doubt, I'll sell my soul
Midas Man
Midas Man
I'll take from the blind and I'll get up ahead
I'll sneak up behind and I'll steal
I'll take all that you have
And then all that you've concealed
I'll take anything I can get, I'll make you
I'll break you and I'll make you sweat
Nothing is worth nothing unless it's
Made for Midas Man
Gold, said the man to the many
Pots of gold are all I want from you
Quarter time for treble days the only way
To sell your soul
Midas Man
Midas Man
I'll take from the blind and I'll get up ahead
I'll sneak up behind and I'll steal
I'll take all that you have
And then all that you've concealed
I'll take anything I can get, I'll make you
I'll break you and I'll make you sweat
Nothing is worth nothing unless it's
Made for Midas Man

Taking time to find the right line
Talking easy with the thoughts you want to share
Leaning down, feel you growing in my mind
Stealing down, going down, feel you growing in my mind
Finding ways to find the real you
Spending days just holding hands and feeling free
Play around, watch the sunshine coming through
Come around, stay around, watch the loving grow with you.
Loving you the love you gve me
Living love with the things we have share
Poetry, hear the words you say to me
Stay with me, here with me, keep our loving flowing free.
Chorus:
It's got to be slow, talking love the only way
Past lovers whisper
Temptations from before
But I've learned illusion
I don't listen anymore
Some memories thicker still
On my silver screen
But I turn and walk away
From what might have been
I'm breaking ground
Into something that's real
Forgotten tenderness
You show me how to feel
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
From pieces of my dream
You're by my side
Confusion washed away
By the rising tide
The rhythm of my heart
Is like the rhythm of the sea
Can't tell a breath apart
Is it you or me?
My passions turned
From dull gray to gold
Fly again now
I've got someone true to hold
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
I'm breaking ground
Into something that's real
Forgotten tenderness you show me
You show me how to feel
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
More I remember
The more I'm pulling through
Further from fantasy
I'm closer to you
Further from fantasy
[Prayer Part 2]
How many times will I plead on bended knee before
I transcend to the one you would have me to be? .
Bless us now as we build anew
Grant us values to hold on to regardless of the evils that men do .
From perseverance purity shines through
In this brave new world there's no home sweet home,
and so we carry on building Rome .
Unto you we will make a joyful sound
Unto you our praises will abound
Unto you we combine both mind and heart
Understanding they can't survive apart
What it's worth to me... Eternity! .
How many times will I plead on bended knee before I transcend
to the one you would have me to be
In this brave new world there's no home sweet home and so we carry on building Rome
Remnants of Art from eons ago
Give us this wisdom inspire the soul.
Stories of love and stories of woe
Remnants of Art from eons ago.
Civilizations stood before time
Passing their torches to give us a sign
Music whose melodies hold you sublime.
Civilizations stood before time.
Statues still stand in the ruins of war
Symbols of life from once long before.
The doors of Atlantis are left unexplored
Statues still stand in the ruins of war.
Chorus:
Renaissance! Be born again.
Sometimes in our ignorance, we forget what things are real
Searching for our innocence, we forget what things to feel
We're all alone at sea sometimes, looking back without regret
Reminded of the past sometimes, remembering to not forget
Perfection
can never be achieved
Unless we learn how to forgive
Through His death we learned to believe
Through His life we learned how to live
The Golden Son blows a silver breeze
Through my copper sails
And His water sets me free
A renaissance of life occur
As the horizon fades into me
Renaissance, renaissance
Renaissance, renaissance
Sail away but not too far
Don't be scared to return
Understanding who we are
Through our mistakes we learn
Sometimes the water may get rough
Sometimes the water may
surround
But sometimes are never always enough
There's always time to find higher ground
The Golden Son blows a silver breeze
Through my copper sails
And His water sets me free
A renaissance of life occurs
As the horizon fades into me

(c) Jason M
This night sky's brighter than any i've ever seen
Your words are rolling off your lips
And i've never heard a voice so soothing
Your curly hair drapes in your eyes,
And soon your hand falls into mine
That just goes to show this night is endless
Your right, i know i've been unfair....but so have
you..
and this affair is starting over
So the days will go on anyways, just like they do
everyday
And at least i know i'm spending them with you
The sun and moon begin to share the sky
and our legs are intertwined /
and your smiling face serves as my reflection /
and this one last solemn kiss sends a shiver to my skin
That just goes to show this night is endless
Your right, i know i've been unfair....but so have
you..
and this affair is starting over
So the days will go on anyways, just like they do
everyday
And at least i know i'm spending them with you
Faded portraits on my wall
Staring back at me in spite
In spite of everything i've done
To prevent another fight
Everything seems clearer
Through this broken mirror
That was shattered by my fist / love should never come
to this
Your right, i know i've been unfair....but so have
you..
and this affair is starting over
So the days will go on anyways, just like they do
everyday
And at least i know i'm spending them with you
--(Guitar break)--
Your right, i know i've been unfair....but so have
you..
and this affair is starting over
So the days will go on anyways, just like they do
everyday
