A picture in grey
Dorian Gray
Just me by the sea
And I felt like a star
I felt the world could go far
If they listened
To what I said
Washes my feet
Washed the feet
Irving Burgess
One night along the river at St. Germain de Pre, I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk café.
We walked along the river, the shadows passing by but we only saw each other, the shining water and the sky.
Chorus:
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again meet her there, greet her there on the moonlit banks of the Seine?
Standing there across the river, mid sound of horn and tram, in all her quiet beauty, the cathedral Notre Dame,
And as we passed beside her, I said a little prayer that when this dream was over, I'd awake and find you there.
(Chorus)
We walked along the river, 'till dawn was coming nigh. Beneath the Eiffel Tower we said our last good-bye.
There on that splendid morning, I left you all in tears and the beauty of that hour will shine within my through the years
(Chorus)
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furnace,
Where hydrogen is built into helium,
At a temperature of millions of degrees.
The sun is hot,
The sun is not,
A place where we could live,
But here on Earth there'd be no life,
Without the light it gives.
We need it's light,
We need it's heat,
The sunlight that we see,
The sunlight comes from our own suns,
Atomic energy.
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furnace,
Where hydrogen is built into helium,
At a temperature of millions of degrees.
The sun is hot,
The sun is so hot that everything on it is a gas,
Aluminum, copper, iron, and many others,
The sun is large,
If the sun were hollow a million earths would fit inside,
And yet,
It is only a middle sized star.
The sun is far away,
About 93 million miles away!
And thats why it looks so small,
But even when its out of sight,
The sun shines night and day.
We need it's light,
We need it's heat,
The sunlight that we see,
The sunlight comes from our own suns,
Atomic energy.
Scientists have found that the sun,
Is a huge atom smashing machine,
The heat and light of the sun are caused,
By the nuclear reactions between,
Hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon and helium.
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furnace,
Where hydrogen is built into helium,
At a temperature of millions of degrees.
The sun, ladies and gentlemen!
i am here not by choice but by my birth for so many years i doubted my own worth it's no coincidence i ended up where i'm at now i'm here to tell you that you can't kick me out 'cause i'm a permanent part of this society the blackest sheep agmonst a crowd of them i'm not the glue that holds this scene together but i have arrived here by way of dirty looks and rejection and head scratching shrink and frustrated parents and teachers just like so many did before me and will after me go ahead and laugh at me you can afford to laugh i can't 'cause this is all i have i'm not proud i'm not ashamed but this is all i have and it's good enough for me and i am through following your truth i'm making my own rules my own world my own rules
The Scene
(Graham Russell, Mark Towner Williams, Cliff Rehrig)
It's another lovely day
Are we still so far away
And how can I share it with you
It's not easy to believe
Are we both about to leave
Without ever saying, I do
I still love you
(Chorus)
Just make me part of the scene
Say we're together, always forever
And everything else in between
Just say we're part of the scene
I don't want to hear it, I just couldn't bear it
If things weren't as good as they seem
You can say I'm not the one
That a lot of faith has gone
The bridges were never quite crossed
Every grain of truth, we deny or prove
Is somewhere before it gets lost
And is found again
(Repeat Chorus)
What if these feelings are all in my head
Flying around me in a world of their own
What if there's nothing that needs to be said
(Repeat Chorus)
Just say we're part of the scene
Say we're together, always forever
And everything else in between
Just say we're part of the scene
Just say we're part of the scene
Good Morning, Good morning
Time to get up
Look at the sun so pretty today
it's so bright, it's so smashing
Lasting, helps out the grass and
Smile when it's morning time
Last night I wrote 3 rhymes, I woke up to see the sun shine
If, God is my witness
In scriptures and pictures
The Sun kiss scrumptious son, it's Nutricious
It makes me wanna climb
Take a bite out of shine
This little light of mine
Yo, the son could never be pussy, He always come out
He'll sit right there, even if you pull your gun out
He can never run out, when the lights go out
If your pants turn out, a herb head spun around
I see Yellow and Green, It's a beautiful thing
The sky's blue, 'cos the sun hit the water like "BING"
A reflection (uh-huh) and that's all it is (word)
You can't stare at him long, cos your face'll do like this
Look who's shining again
(Oh My My MY)
We've Been Rhyming again
(Oh My My My)
Ice be blinding the men
(Oh My My My)
We come through time and time again
(Oh My My My)
Check out my nephew
He jumped up in the window just to see you
Look what he drew
A car, house, always wants to be with you
He's just as Jolly, He always begging me to let him see you
I'm like "probably if you clean up, and read a little"
You make people eyes glow
You got the weather channel bugging and you stubborn when it snow
You my mentor, Mothers name their Kids after you
New slang, nothing personal, we knowin what you been through
(Sun) You roll like, one in a million yo
(Sun Sun) You always find like, one in a building yo
We those babies from day one
All I had was you on my birthday baby- think you owe me one
The way the world look when you around
Prisoners get out, look up, run at you and then kiss the ground
You my favourite, I wish we had three more of you
I adore you, plus I even go to the store for you
Look who's shining again
(Oh My My MY)
We've Been Rhyming again
(Oh My My My)
Ice be blinding the men
(Oh My My My)
We come through time and time again
(Oh My My My)
I would die for a sun , can being richer and cruel
Reachin a full 98, and got the kids in the pool
Isn't it cool how it spreads joy, hons lay in it
And it's hard to go back to work, when your lunch breaks finished
? before, so it's a fact I support
Feeling the warm sun rays, upon your back as you walk
The heat-driven, A theory I plung to deep living is
Souls have to go through the sun to reach Heaven
And, sensing retreat, our souls badden the scene
Madame believe, since dinosaurs, and Adam and Eve
That Sun's hovered, to the extermination of us
It's a peephole, which leads to the firmament above us
Who can take a raindrop
And turn it to 3?
And drawn up 6 miles, over tropical isles
and bring it to the sea
Look who's shining again
(Oh My My MY)
We've Been Rhyming again
(Oh My My My)
Ice be blinding the men
(Oh My My My)
We come through time and time again

It's none of my business
But if I may
Remind you of the time
When you did something you knew was wrong
It wasn't called a crime
And I'm not saying that you should give
A sucker an even break
I'm talking about the time
That you were cruel for cruelty's sake
I'm talking about the time
That you were cruel for cruelty's sake
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
Hah?
Maybe you went and stuck your key
In somebody else's door
Maybe you went and helped yourself
To something that wasn't yours
Maybe you simply criticized
Someone you hardly knew
You ruined part of their life for them
Part of your own life, too
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for it then?
If and when you feel an ill wind
Don't be too surprised
Remember when you should have
Picked on somebody your own size
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
How am I gonna pay for
How am I gonna pay for
After school
Walking home
Fresh dirt under my fingernails
And I can smell hot asphalt
Cars screech to a halt to let me pass
And I cannot remember
What life was like through photographs
Trying to recreate images life gives us from our past
And sometimes it's a sad song
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain that I have
Gone through
And mama I've been cryin'
Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battles almost won
And we're only several miles from the sun
Moving on down my street
I see people I won't ever meet
Think of her, take a breath
Feel the beat in the rhythm of my steps
And sometimes it's a sad song
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain that I have
Gone through
And mama I've been cryin'
Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battles almost won
And we're only several miles from the sun
The rhythm of her conversation
The perfection of her creation
The sex she slipped into my coffee
The way she felt when she first saw me
Hate to love and love to hate her
Like a broken record player
Back and forth and here and gone
And on and on and on and on
But I cannot forget
Refuse to regret
So glad I met you
Take my breath away
Make everyday
Worth all of the pain that I have
Gone through
And mama I've been cryin'
Cause things ain't how they used to be
She said the battles almost won
And we're only several miles...
She said the battles almost won
I got superstition
Ruling my decision
You are my religion
Haven't got a prayer
So just give me the sign and I'll follow you
When every angel's guarding you
You are my religion
Haven't got a prayer
I don't want to wait
To save your life
I think I know a way
To make things right
Just give me the sign and I'll come for you
Give me the sign and I'll be your rescue, baby
I'll run your way when I hear you calling me
Give me the sign and I'll come for you
Give me the sign and I'll be your rescue, baby
I'll run your way when I hear you calling out for me
Walking under ladders
Nothing really matters
There could be disaster
I don't really care
So just give me the sign and I'll follow you
When every angel's guarding you
There could be disaster
I don't really care
I don't want to wait
To save your life
I think I know a way
To make things right
Just give me the sign and I'll come for you
Give me the sign and I'll be your rescue, baby
I'll run your way when I hear you calling me
Give me the sign and I'll come for you
Give me the sign and I'll be your rescue, baby
I'll run your way when I hear you calling out
For me
For me
I don't want to wait
To save your life
I think I know a way
To make things right
Just give me the sign
Give me the sign
Give me the sign
Just give me the sign
Just give me the sign and I'll come for you
Give me the sign and I'll be your rescue, baby
I'll run your way when I hear you calling me
Give me the sign and I'll come for you
Give me the sign and I'll be your rescue, baby
I'll run your way when I hear you calling out for me
Give me the sign
Give me the sign
Give me the sign
And the sun goes over me (6x)
It'd be so kind to see your face in my door
It wouldn't have to last very long
It'd be so kind to see your face in my door
I wouldn't have to ask anymore
[Count-In: John Bonham] - "We've done four already but now we're steady
and then they went: One, two, three, four"
Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain
Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain
Got no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the door
Got a date, I can't be late, for the high hopes hailla ball.
Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar
Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot more, more!
Singing about good things and the sun that lights the day
I used to sing on the mountains, has the ocean lost it's way.
Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns into day
Used to sing on the mountains but the mountains washed away
Now I'm singing all my songs to the girl who won my heart
I have tasted poison, still I remain restored
By centuries of saving seas where living waters pour
I am the ocean
Purified by all the tears of time
I am bitter and sublime
I am the ocean
Disregard the wreckage under healing tide
All the shame in Jesus' name
Was covered when He died
We are the ocean
Glorious and sanctified by pain
We are blessed by the rain
We are the ocean
Acid clouds will threaten but you won't be defiled
Cleansing love from God above will shower you dear
child
You are the ocean,
Beautiful and driven by the wind
You are wondrous deep within
You are the ocean
I am the ocean
Purified by all the tears of time
I am bitter and sublime
I am the ocean
We are the ocean
So when the sun goes down
And we move along
I will call on you
call on you
When the sun goes down
And we move along
I will call on you
call on you
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you re-eh-ady?
I will call on you
No cry my brother, cryin'
No stall no no no stall
No time to lose, time to lose
We must go on soon
Yes we must
So when the sun goes down
And we move along
I will call on you
call on you
When the sun goes down
And we move along
I will call on you
call on you
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you re-eh-ady?
I will call on you
No cry my brother, cryin'
No stall no no no stall
No time to lose, time to lose
We must go on soon
Yes we must
call on you
We must go on soon
call on you
When the sun goes down
call on you
And we move along
If I could have chosen where God would hide his heaven,
I would wish for it to be in the salt and swell of the ocean.
Carried by the currents to all continents' shores.
Reaching into depths where the sun's light has never shown.
Mixed with algae and coral.
Breathed in by sharks and dolphins.
Sailed by tanker ships, private yachts, swam in by tourists.
Working its way up through inlets, lakes, and rivers, swamps, and estuaries.
Down through limestone into the aquifer.
Purified by the county, pumped through pipes and out faucets.
Filled into a glass to meet the thirst of our children.
If I could have chosen, I would have been born a woman.
My mother once told me she would have named me Laura.
I would grow up to be strong and beautiful like her.
One day I'd find an honest man to make my husband.
We would have two children, build our home on the Gulf of Mexico.
Our family would spend hot summer days at the beach together.
The sun would kiss our skin as we played in the sand and water.
We would know we loved each other without having to say it.
At night we would sleep with the windows of our house left open.
Letting the cool ocean air soothe the sunburned shoulders of our children.
Shock!
I gotta new life
You would hardly recognize me I'm so glad
How could a person like me care for you
Why do I bother
When you're not the one for me
Oooo, is enough, enough
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes I saw the sign
Life is demanding without understanding
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes I saw the sign
No one's gonna drag you up to get into the light where you belong
But where do you belong
Under the pale moon
For so many years I've wondered who you are
How can a person like you bring me joy
Under the pale moon
Where I see a lot of stars
Is enough, enough
I saw the sign...
I saw the sign and it opened up my mind
And I am happy now living without you
I've left you, ooohhh
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes I sae the sign
No one's gonna drag you up to get into the light where you belong
When I went to your town on the wide open shore,
Oh I must confess, I was drawn, I was drawn to the ocean,
I thought it spoke to me, it said, "Look at us,
We're not churches, not schools, not skating ponds, swimming pools,
And we have lost people, haven't we though?"
Oh, that's what the ocean can know of a body,
And that's when I came back to town, this town is a song about you.
You don't know how lucky you are, you don't know how much I adore you,
You are the welcoming back from the ocean.
I went back to the ocean today,
With my books and my papers I went to the rocks by the ocean,
But the weather changed quickly, oh the ocean said,
"What are you trying to find, i dont' care, I'm not kind,
I've bludgeoned your sailors, I've spat out their keepsakes,
Oh it's ashes to ashes, but always the ocean,"
But the ocean can't come to this town, this town is a song about you.
You don't know how lucky you are, you don't know how much I adore you,
You are the welcoming back from the ocean.
And the ones that can know you so well are the ones that can swallow you whole.
I have a good and I have an evil, I thought the ocean, the ocean thought nothing,
You are the welcoming back from the ocean.
I didn't go back today,
I wanted to show you that I was more land than water,
I went to pick flowers. I brought them to you,
Look at me, look at them, with their salt up the stem,
But you frowned when I smiled and I tried to arrange them,
You said, "Let me tell you the song of this town,"
You said, "Everything closes at five. After that, well, you just got the bars,
You don't know how precious you are, walking around with your little shoes dangling,
I am the one who lives with the ocean,
It's where we came from, you know, and sometimes I just want to go back,
After a day, we drink 'til we're drowning, walk to the ocean, wade in with our workboots,
Wade in our workboots, try to finish the job.
You don't know how precious you are, I am the one who lives with the ocean.
(Burden/Callis/Oakey)
Around the nation, around the world
What's been going down?
A million voices, one question hurled
Heard in every town
All of the people, one simple plea
What will happen now?
Asked in concern for their destiny
Got to know somehow
They say
They say
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign
So if you want to know what's going on
Going round and round
You'd better ask before your world is gone
Gone without a sound
They say
They say
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign
Lighter than light
A feather
Floating into sight
Higher than I
Remember
I know you'll make it better
If I have to I will drive to the sea
To bring you to me
The sun
Rolling backwards
The day
Racing after
The wind
Rushing under
The night
Is the hardest time
So this is life
Together
The glamour and the grace
Brighter than bright
December
The winter on your face
And you're safe
The sun
Rolling backwards
The day
Racing after
The wind
Rushing under
The night
Is the hardest time
It's all right
It's ok
You're the master
It's all night
It's all day
It's all disaster
The saddest sound
Is down my hall
It's the saddest sound of all
I hear you scream
I hear you call
The sun
Rolling backwards
The day
Racing after
The wind
Rushing under
The night
Am I alone in this,
never a night where I
can sleep myself till day.
We must try to figure it out,
figure it out.
It won't be that easy
We lost it somehow
You come over unannounced
Silence broken by your voice in the dark
I need you here tonight
Just like the ocean needs the waves
Oh, the night becomes the space
that's somewhere in between.
What a feeling what I'm told
Sitting on the shoreline trying to
Figure it out, figure it out,
to find out the meaning, and reach it somehow.
You come over unannounced
Silence broken by your voice in the dark
I need you here tonight
Just like the ocean needs the waves
Fall around me now,
Like stars that shine and brighten the way.
I need you here tonight
just like this night it needs the rain.
The seasons have changed,
The wind, it blows colder now, colder now
The clouds are raised,
The rain it falls harder now, all around.
You come over unannounced
Silence broken by your voice in the dark
I need you here tonight
Just like the ocean needs the waves
Fall around me now,
Like stars that shine and brighten the way.
I need you here tonight
1969 Live Version
--------------------------------------------
Here comes the Ocean
And the waves down by the shore
Here comes the Ocean
And the waves down by the sea
Earth is a hollow hair bought of a bigger head
It nearly drives me crazy
I am a lazy son
I never get things down
...(Unknown)
But here comes the waves
Down by the shore
Washing the eye of the land
That has been down by the sea
Down by the sea
Down by the sea
Down by the sea
Here comes the ocean and the waves
Down by the shore
Here comes the ocean and the waves
Down by the sea
(Incense or In sex or Insects) for evil thoughts, thought of by selfish men
It nearly drives me crazy
I am a lazy son
I never get things done
...(Unknown)
Here comes the waves down by the shore
Washing the eye of the land that has been down by the sea
Down by the sea
Here come the waves
Here come the waves
Here come the waves
Peel Slowly And See Version
---------------------------------------------
Here comes the ocean
And the waves
Down by the sea
Here comes the Ocean
And the waves
Where have they been?
Silver and black with night
Heres to a summers night
An empty splendid castle
Glowering alone at night
The princess has had a fright
Madness seeks out the lover
And here come the waves down by the shore
Washing the soul of the body
That comes from the depths of the sea
Here comes the ocean
and the waves down by the sea
Here comes the ocean
and the waves, where have they been
Don't swim tonight my love
The tide is out my love
Malcom's curse haunts our family
Oh yes, loud in which, ruler of filthy seas, revelling heavans justice
And here come the waves
And save for a scream
Theres much like a song
To be heard, in the wind, that blows by the sea.
Like the wind
Here come the waves,
Here come the waves,
Here come the waves
Today is the day, of the big punk rock show see the status climbers, and the who's whos they know. You'll be on the guest list, make sure you shout it loud You feel so important, now you're walking so proud The highest current fashion, from your head down to your toes gotta make a strong impression, now its backstage you go Make sure we all see you, on the side of the stage you're the punk rock status climbers, and you're always the rage. You make no difference, you're just a pretty face you jockey for position in some silly childish race like a game we played in high school, still trying to be cool its time to get a grip, stop being such a fool the prom is over, and the king and queen moved on if you cam here to be popular, this is not where you belong cause everyone here is equal, and thats how its meant to be we wont let you change it, thats how its gonna be. By The Way Don't think I forgot, Don't think I ever will. I told you that I wouldn't, doesn't that give you a thrill? You should be proud, you've earned your bragging rights. Too bad it had to cost me so many sleepless nights.
I'll blame it all on the Sun
'Cause I can't tell what's goin' on
Since the day you walked away
My heart beats like a different one
It beats angry and cold
Just passin' time 'til I get old
Where the folly used to be
It's hardened and it's cynical
Ahhh!
I'll blame it all on the Sun
That warmed the seas where life began
Through the ferns and dinosaurs
And straight through 'til the time of Man
'Cause without that mistake
You wouldn't have my heart to break
I'd be floating peacefully
Through the silent galaxies
Ahhh!
I'll blame it all on the Sun
The smell of cloves and cinnamon
And the sound of summer rain
And screams of children having fun
And my grandmother's hands
And wanderin' slow through foreign lands
Betel nut and mangosteen
And campfires in the desert sands
If you look real high
You just might find
Sitting in the stars
Glistening, glistening
Waiting for the band to come
Just waiting for that man to come
Oh, I wonder...
Slip on down from that sun
To climb down to earth
And down to things like time
Because we are all, we are all just lovers
Born of earth and light like all these others
If you're talking to the moon
The moon might sing about the universe
Shouting out I don't need, I don't need time
I breathe in time
Where, where are we now?
Where, where are we now?
Slip on down from that sun
To climb down to earth
And down to things like time
Because we are all, we are all just lovers
Born of earth and light like all these others
If you're looking for the river
Just find the mouth
It's grinding like gnashing teeth foaming out, foaming out
Mixing up that hell to come
Just mixing up the hell to come
And it's fixing up to swallow me whole
Fixing up to swallow me whole
Fixing up to swallow my soul
Fixing up to swallow me whole
Slip on down from that sun
To climb down to earth
And down to things like time
Because we are all, we are all just lovers
Born of earth and light like all these others
We are all, we are all
Where, Where are we now?
We are all, we are all
Where, Where are we now?
We are all, we are all
Where, Where are we now?
Well I see the morning coming
but you have disappeared
and all the walls are crumblin
I wish that you were here
wish that you were here
And all the lights gone blackness in the godforesaken
town
and all the streets are empty, noone is around
no one is around
So I'll wait for the sun
I'll wait for the light
Look for you to run
lost you in the night
Chase you down by day
morning hours away
sleeping never comes
so i'll wait for the sun
Well that lonesome wind is blowin
Its putting on a show
And i hear that train callin
just beggin me to go
just beggin me to go
So I'll wait for the sun
I'll wait for the light
Look for you to run
lost you in the night
Chase you down by day
morning hours away
sleeping never comes
When you wake what is it that you think of most?
When your bed is empty, do you really sleep alone?
If I imagine you, body next to another
All around me, new love and it makes me sad
All around me, feeling sure that you'll be bad
If I imagine you, body next to another
Stop crying to the ocean
Stop crying over me
Stop worrying over nothing
Stop worrying over me
So, it's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
What I want's right here with you
On the drive back here I was worrying over nothing
On the drive back there tears spilling over something
When I imagine you, body next to another
In the door and you're there and you're sorry for the fright
In the door, can I hear saying you don't wanna fight?
When I imagine you, body next to another
Stop crying to the ocean
Stop crying over me
Stop worrying over nothing
Stop worrying over me
So, it's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
What I want's right here with you
It's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
What I want's right here with you
In a flashback to you just brought attention to the mess
In a flash, you're on top, begging me to understand
If I imagine you, body next to another
You drop in for a minute, I'm sorry that I didn't
Drop in sooner just to see you and see what you've been doing
If I imagine you, body next to another
So, it's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
What I want's right here with you
It's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
What I want's right here with you
It's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
What I want's right here with you
It's been so long since you said
Well, I know what I want
You need a big wide space
You need light, you need grace
Disappointment in your skin
I'll always let you in
Pull a feather from the nest
Fasten it to your chest
Shoot yourself up to me
Cut through the gravity
You don't have to be scared
You hold yourself down there
You would like it here i know
You were meant to let it go
'Cause i am the sun
I'm the only one
I'll pull you to me
The moon and the sea
When the oxygen comes
And blows it all clean
Remember to breathe
Remember to breathe
And we are the ones
With the parts and the motion
We fill up the sky
And we burn with devotion
When our bodies are done
And hard times are over
Remember to breathe
Remember to breathe
A veiled horizon
I stumble to and change the train
Sing my own praises
Don't realize it is insane
Nine thin peelings
Once so fresh now flaccid skin
I try to graze it
In vain
Burnt in my skin
A cruel sign
Of your denial
You incised in me
Drowned in my sins
I realized
Your childlike
Divinity
Coarse and defaced
Sleeps my gently covered grace
And my delusions
A portrait of my wild goose chase
For alleviation
Want animate the wet weeped blaze
And can't create it
The Zone in the middle of that Zone
Where natures laws has been overthrown
Trapped inside the Russian winter mist
Calling you in a voice that's hard to resist
Its the Room
Where your wishes all come true
Its the Room
Where your dreams take shape and forms
Its in this Room
Where you will find yourself
Its the Room
The story is in your mind
So lock the door and throw the key away
The soundtrack of screams is not for fake
The room is just behind the poison lake
Where only Stalkers dare to walk
They know the creatures in the dark
Inside the razor wire fence
The glowing fog is dense
In the Room you give in to your desire
Its a gamble, are you a player?
Do you dare to open Pandoras shrine
Now, take a look at me and tell me what you see
I'm only six feet tall but I'm righteous y'all
And I want you to know that I'm good to go
I ain't the super fly, don't you pass me by
Here I am, I'm on the scene
Feel like I just can't lose
And I got a shine on my shoes
You don't know my name
But I'm here just the same
I ain't your back door man
But, oh, yes I can
Here I am, I'm on the scene
Here I am, I'm on the scene
I wanna know, do you like to get high?
I'm too afraid to try, I ain't your fantasy
But I can shake your tree
And I want you to know, I'm still good to go
I ain't the settin' sun
But I can get the job done
Here I am, I'm on the scene
Here I am, I'm on the scene
Yes I am, I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
I'm on the scene
Yes, I am
You have one new message, first message
"I'm a simple man, looking for a hang out
You lead me down to the ocean
So lead me down by the ocean
Y'know it's been a long time, you always leave me tongue-
tied
And all this time's for us, I love you just because
You lead me down to the ocean
The world is fine by the ocean
Y'know this time's for real, it helps the heart to heal
Y'know it breaks the seal of the talisman that harms
And so you look at me and need.. the space that means as
much to me
So lead me down to the ocean
Our world is fine by the ocean
Y'know the way it is in life, it's so hard to live up to
So why are you still dressed in your mournin' suit? I
assume, I assume
You'll lead me down, to the ocean
Don't leave me down by the ocean, the ocean
Here comes the wave, here comes the wave
Here comes the wave, down by the ocean
plastic box culture keeps you in line.
sedated consciousness.
dry eyes dry mind.
face first to the ground you bury your head.
electronic sickness.
Hear the cry from the underworld,
to pull you under
It's the enemy, the journey ends here
Light the path throughout the night,
it's getting close
Sanctuary in a hollow void
See a sign appear in the dark
Your sould will perish in flames
The Sign of the two turns to one
No savior uo high
The promised euphoria's gone
So hell is life and death
Fell the breath inside your minde,
it prevades your soul
Hear the voices cry, through the never
Your eyes turn inside out; you're all alone now
Feel your heart explode, piece by piece
Pain, suffering just do it,
death is the blessing you seek
Your soul will be free,
Life is an endless torture,
for the mindless and weak
When will we unite? When will we both see the meaning?
There will be new times, there will be a sign.
For the eyes of all true.
There will be a sign for you.
A bond for life, the quest that's in their head.
The beauty of it all seems slipped away,
The value of it all astray.
They're made to last, their breed won't easily break.
Endurance is a virtue they possess,
Deliverance what they caress.
There's times to wait, and times to doubt,
And times to do everything your way.
Decide to go, decide to act,
Decide to get on your knees and pray.
Warned by pride, ambitions that collide.
Isn't it a shame to waste your time,
On falling down before you climb?
When will we unite? When will we both see the meaning?
There will be new times, there will be a sign.
For the eyes of all true.
There will be a sign for you.
Lost and found, it's deep within yourselves.
When trickery and lies do rule the stage,
Impossible to temper rage.
What's this world, where no one can forgive.
The story of a man nailed to the cross,
Can you feel the scent of dreads
Can you guess the coolness of stares
Can you give blood for that
Can you forget to keep control
Now you have to decide,
You've got the key, you've got the power
So keep your free will
Dive into the unknown
You need a sign, here is the sign
Let grow the knowledge
Let bloom your soul
You need a sign, I'm the sign
Now you have to decide,
You've got the key, you've got the power of... life and death
Day after day, hour after hour
You find the answers which bring us the questions
For sure you think it would be better to be like them
To be like us
Into the unknown
Let convey the free will
Let grow the knowledge
Let flash the inner sun
Now you have to decide,
You've got the key, you've got the power of... life and death
So keep your free will dive into the unknown
You need a sign, here is the sign
Let grow the knowledge
Let bloom your soul
You need a sign, I am the sign
Now you have to decide,
You've got the key, you've got the power
Day after day, hour after hour
You find the answers which bring us the questions
For sure you think it would be better to be like them
To be like us
Another sheep in the flock
Another number in the mob
Another pawn for the game
Tonight I'm gonna leave this town behind
Gonna pack my things and then I'll say goodbye
Tomorrow a new journey will begin
The iron bird will carry me with the wind
As I start to walk away
You take my hand and then I'll say
Every time when I am away from you
I feel alone and I am missing you
So far away but still you are close to me
In the stars I see your sign
No matter where I go will you wait for me?
Even if it will be for eternity?
A million miles away but I will return
Cause in the stars I see your sign
Tomorrow I am far away from home
Seeing places I have never seen before
So many men have travelled here before
And many will travel here once more
As my journey finally ends
I still remember the world
From the eyes of a child
Slowly those feelings
Were clouded by what I know now
Where has my heart gone
An uneven trade for the real world
I want to go back to
Believing in everything and knowing nothing at all
I still remember the sun
Always warm on my back
Somehow it seems colder now
Where has my heart gone
Trapped in the eyes of a stranger
I want to go back to
Believing in everything
[Latin hymn]
In this place I found the one I'm looking for
Empty space I felt when I lay you on the floor
I never thought you were beautiful at that time
I felt inside I can't follow you in that rhyme
Oo... oo... I'm looking for the sun
Not before I know
Oo... oo... I'm looking for the sun
Just before I go
You said to me that night for you was quite a night
You hold my hand you could do much more if you might
But now I know you never really care
I give you all but now no more
But now I see how it supposed to be
I don't need you anymore
Toward the sun the one looking for
All around
I see you're under my skin
Cruel to say
I've known the best of my life
Never again to hear
The rivers' song so clear
Everyday's another scene
The world around and everything for you
An open door a cauldron of
Waves rush in through every house for all
So they say another lie:
'Love's a rumor
But love will die'
We're lost and wandering
Deep in the ocean
There lies a wave for you
When you hit the ground
It's hard to speak
But its who you are
A shining star
Go
Tell the millions begin!
We'll run through the fields
The turning of wheels
Down with the buildings
Worlds on your shoulders
Climb through the wasteland
Wait for the sky to remind you
These things are true Everyday's another scene
The world around and everything for you
An open door a cauldron of
Waves rush in through every house for all
So they say another lie:
'Love's a rumor
But love will die'
We're lost and wandering
Deep in the ocean
There lies a wave for you
Whenyou hit the ground
It's hard to speak
But its who you are
A shining star
Go
Tell the millions begin!
We'll run through the fields
The turning of wheels
Down with the buildings
Worlds on your shoulders
Climb through the wasteland
Wait for the sky to remind you
These things are true
About the day
I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
And all of the lies that I never have led
Is one where I stayed with you, accross the sea
I wonder do you still think of me
I carry your image always in my head
Folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
And i've look upon it for so many years
Slowy im loosing your face
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Sixs and sevens we live on jet planes
And so many faces I don't know the names
So many friends now and none of them mine
Forgotten as soon as we meet
All of these moments are lost in time
Your caught on my head like a thorn on a vine
But to hurt but to mend me that I wonder why
Do I wish i've never known you at all
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
The sun and the moon
An ocean of air
So many voices
But nothing is there
The ghost of you asking me why
Why did I leave
Oh the ocean rows us away, away, away
The ocean rows us away
Oh the ocean rows us away away away
See,
Me raising waiving my hankerchif on the shore,
See,
My arm raised high
See,
That ship sail off, with it sails a lot
And See,
Me dry my eyes and see more
Salty tears flow as my house is blown wide,
And see me watch the waves roll in from somewhere,
See me squint my eyes,
See me learn to live without my loved ones,
See me scan the sky,
And see the flock of birds goodbye,
And turn to go inside.
But I feel you,
On my neck you are above fire.
See me reach up,
See me touch my neck,
And see my fingers recoil
See the life come back into my body
And see me living wide
And see me look from side to side
And tip-toe in your light
See me look at you and lose my sight
And when my eyes burned I saw it
Here comes a black ship, rising under wet sail
See if fill the sky,
See it billow up,
See that gleaming eyes,
And hear their scary trumpets,
See me running terror for the mountain,
See me scramble high
See me burned and blind
And all hopeless and baron
See me sprawled out see me crawl and wine
See me search for signs
And I see you,
Weird and high,
You are above
You are above a fire
Enslaved by the sea
You can't resist
Surrounded
By darkness
At powers devours
Your mind
Dark forces
Avenging the past
On a banished raft
Body so shrinked
Seared
This pungent stench
So abhoring
Fear
The ocean
Eradicates
Out of the dark
The flashing eyes
Hypnotise
Filled with disdaim
The ocean feels
Contemptuous
So profane
I started out going out of control
I believe you wanna save my searching soul
Thought I met you in conversation
But I'm alone with your voice inside my head
It was September when the cold ran down my face
I want the fire back bending me back in shape
I hit the floor When the thoughts are too much pain
And you said I'll save your broken heart
Next time I'll wait for the sun (Ohhh)
Next time I'll wait for the sun (Ohhh)
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
I know your dreams are full of dragons
Speaking words in foreign language
And now you're stuck like oil to canvas
And you're alone with my voice inside your head
It was December when the cold ran down your face.
Far along, far away from goodness grace
You hit the floor When the thoughts are too much pain
And I swear I'll save your broken heart
Next time I'll wait for the sun (Ohhh)
Next time I'll wait for the sun (Ohhh)
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
Waiting for you..
I wait here for you..
I wait here for you..
Waiting for you.. (I wait for...)
Next time I'll wait for the sun (Ohhh)
Next time I'll wait for the sun (Ohhh)
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
Next time I'll wait for (I'll wait) I'll wait for the sun
Now I See The Sign. Sunrise of my life. Darkness fades away. A New day has begun.
Looking for the answer to the meaning of my life. It's hard to see the future when the love is gun. The Media is sending out a message to the world. It's the time to analyze it before it breaks me down.
I Close my eyes. I say my prayer. Dear god, save me from this hell.
Now I See The Sign. Sunrise of my life. Darkness fades away. A New day has begun.
Running for the prize. I want to be a star. No matter what it costs I want to be the one. Soon I Realize this is not the end for me. The Creator of my life touched my empty soul.
I close my eyes. I say my prayer. Dear God, save me from this hell.
Now I See The Sign. Sunrise of my life. Darkness fades away. A New day has begun.
The Lord is my shepard. I shall not lack. He makes me to lie down. In green pastures. He leads me beside restful water. He revives my soul. He leads in path of rightousness. For his name's sake.
You made the tears of love
Flow like they did when I saw
The dying swan
The swan that died in darkness
I want your smile
I dreamt of your swan smile
And then wings moved the air
Water rings widened
As bells sounded
In the night
Then your smile died
On the water
It was only a reflection
In me burns a love so strong
I used to think it made me weak
I've held it there for oh so long
Tried to bury it so deep
For there's a soul inside a woman
That knows the soul inside a man
And I could just as well forget you
As hold the ocean in my hand
And you know that it's the second arrow
That always deals the fatal blow
It's not the yearning that'll kill us
But fighting not to let it show
For there's a soul inside a woman
That knows the soul inside a man
And I could just as well forget you
As hold the ocean in my hand
For there's a soul inside a woman
That knows the soul inside a man
And I could just as well forget you
I saw the sun, in the sky this morning
Life must move on, there is too much for me
I saw the sun, in the sky this morning
Sparked my spliff still stankin in and yawnin
I’m on it, ready for whatever my decisions
Based on what I see around close my mouth and listen
Int this, vision beautiful around
Feel tha air, see the light, take a breath, hear the
sound
In the now, the present, the past is irrelevant
You dwellin, still regressin, no succession and it’s
evident
Irreverent no, I advocate advancement
Aidem motivation for those who ain’t had the chance yet
Immaculate, as if the whistle was me
My existence in bliss, intrinsic to be
Free, accountable for any n every action
Stackin chips makin flips with the backing of my
faction
Ask him, I ain’t tryna put it in a caption
The words out my mouth get me clout to bring me cash in
Life must move on, there’s to much to see and do
Things for me to make my dreams come true
It’s a new day, and I must find a way
To get this money, I gotta get pay
Stay up in the sky, fly dammit I’m fresh
Stressed, chest pass move while I blow my cess
I’m on quest, ridin answers in fronta me
Mind pass the time flyin thinking something bumpin deep
Sounds, pound while swisher sweet leaks smoke
Keep bank rolls, on patrol with my heat tote
Pain, for anyone who think my lives a game
N grained, n my brain is my enemies names
And it constantly gains, cause it’s me against the
world
Like Pac said right shot dead, with no chance to unfurl
Pearl vision in the distance keep my eyes on that prize
Rise every single morning soaring high in bed I fry
Everything under the Sun,
Is getting burnt.
Everything under the Moon,
Is gonna sink.
And i think that one day soon,
It's all gonna.
In nights of blood,
Gore by enterents(What it sounds like but ???),
Big bags of water,
Steps to take,
Totally out her.
Seems like cloud could take our hurt away,
Two busy city streets,
We're running fast,
But what are we running for.
Well i hate to be the barer of bad news,
But ive been all around,
I've seen the globe from upside down,
Theres no clear end, on the firey flow with,
Angels blowing, trumpets below, and calling out his
judgement sounds.
If god exsits in a place like this then,
Where else could this god or goddess be if he or she is
trapped in side.
What if its all just a black abbis, and lips that kiss
you, when your safe, or feeling just a little out of
"The Sign"
-Eric Bogle
In the summer of last year, in a city* far from here
That stands on the shores of the fair Pacific sea
I walked it's pleasant streets, no view in mind, no one to meet
Content to wander where my aimless feet led me
A few streets from my hotel, I passed an old stone wall
where three words had been scrawled by an unknown hand
When I read them I stopped dead, in disbelief I shook my head
For the words on that wall read, "Free Bobby Sands"
As the sun began to fall, and the day began to die
Thought I heard the wild geese call, from a dark and empty sky
For long minutes I stood there, in that busy thoroughfare
While the past rose sharp and clear in my mind's eye
I saw it all again, the passion, hate, and pain
the indifference and the shame as a young man died
But it was all so long ago, and who now cares or knows
why Bobby Sands chose his lonely death?
But to the one who wrote that sign,
it seems that Bobby's light still shines
The words rang from another time,
but the paint was fresh
As the sun began to fall, and the day began to die
Thought I heard the wild geese call, from a dark and empty sky
So I went down to the sea, to let it's wild song comfort me
But my thoughts would not let me be, and unchecked they ran
Through my future, present, and past,
not for the first time nor the last
I heard them ask, "Could you be the kind of man
who would gladly sacrifice everything, even life
and put no price on a cause, or an ideal?"
No answer echoed in my heart, so I turned and I walked back
through the twilight's deepening dark, to my hotel.
****************
Historical Note:
Bobby Sands, MP, was imprisoned in 1981 under criminal charges
stemming from his alleged involvement in IRA terrorist activities
in Ulster Province (Northern Ireland). Mr. Sands, along with
20 other alleged IRA members in prison awaiting trial, went
on a hunger strike to protest inhumane conditions in the prison, and to
have the IRA members reclassified as "political prisoners".
The hunger strike lasted more than 60 days, resulting in the deaths
of many of the prisoners, of which Mr. Sands was the first to succumb.
You know we talk from time to time
Forget poetics and rhymes
Have you been outside?
The weather's so fantastic, so fantastic
I'm happy today
I've got a smile on my face
There's a smile on yours
Cuz everyone is sharing the sun
We're all sharing the sun
Everything will go as planned
If not planned for something that's much better x2
Whoa oh oh oh
Fill our pockets with our dreams
Oh thank God I've got big jeans!
I can fit them all in mine
No more waiting, time to go outside and play x2
Whoa oh oh x4
Everything will go as planned
If not planned for something that's much better x2
The sun is shining, the sun is out x8
No more waiting, time to go outside and play x8
Silent shadows
Disturb the snow
Vast remains of a world we used to know
Distant thunder
Is pounding low
The eve of death has never felt so cold
Dogs are howling
For they all know
The raging terror crawling from below
The evening sky
A million crows
Tortured souls
The twelve will soon be gone
As was foretold
Thousands of outcasts moving along
Seven years
Through the snow
Let them be lords for one day
Their quest for freedom is bound to fail
Go tell the sun we're on our way
Come with us
Prevail
From their high thrones
The stars look down
The face of night with light like hope does frown
A painful breeze
The breath of god
Chases twelve to the mountains where they fought
The mist that hung
Upon the trees
Upon the mountains they fought the mystery
Of mysteries
That no one sees
They fought belief
The airs that brood over solitude
Palpitate in the hearts of their troops
The twelve have fought
What remains unseen
