Thinking Allowed / I Met A Girl 04:59
lyrics
buy track
Thinking allowed / I met a girl They told me that I was allowed to think But not too much ‘cause it will make you crazy Well I’ve made it this far and I guess that they were right I’ve thought about religion I’ve thought about politics too I’ve thought about the war I’ve thought about the homeless and the poor I’ve thought about the planet and its possible demise I’ve thought about love that came and then was lost Too much time thinking about the things I couldn’t change Too much time thinking about the things that caused me rage Too much time thinking Too much time just thinking Too much time to think about the things that could have been Too much time thinking Too much time just thinking I’m thinking I’m thinking aloud Well I’m just thinking I’m just thinking aloud ………. I met a girl along the way And we laughed and danced through summer days Maybe it’s what could have been Maybe it was just a dream Now it seems so long ago We laughed and danced through summer days

Have you ever Have you ever watched the sunrise Have you ever laid and watched the stars Have you ever loved with passion Have you ever dreamed of a better life Let me show you How to be free Let me show you How it could be Maybe life is too short Got to live it while you can Take each day and live it Just doing the best that you can Have you ever watched the sunrise Have you ever laid and watched the stars Have you ever loved with passion Have you ever dreamed of a better life

Evolution 04:14
lyrics

Evolution I can feel it Somethings coming On the ill wind That brings no good I hear a sound And turn around And I see a shadow Watching over me Well I’ve never been Religious But I feel some Energy Well it could be A mass extinction Viral Evolution Maybe it’s intuition Maybe it’s a revelation Maybe it’s superstition Maybe it’s evolution Evolution

Twenty Twenty Four 09:08
lyrics

Twenty twenty four I don’t know where life is taking me Drifting on like a ship at sea You and me can weather the storm Carry on just like before You and me together are strong What on earth could ever go wrong What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four Every day is just another day Time passes by while we just sit and play Could it be that we’re just stuck Trapped in a fur lined rut Trying to figure out how it works Guess I’ll have to ask the old folks What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four So come on and tell me everything you know I’ve got time and no place to go Tell me what’s in your heart Take me back right to the start In a time when living was free If you explain so that I can see What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four So what has all the fighting done Where have all the heroes gone So much lost and nothing won But I can’t remember now How it used to be Living in peace and freedom They called hypocrisy So gather ‘round my friends And keep our secrets safe Follow me down to the river Follow me down Follow me down into the valley Follow me down below Follow me down Follow me down below The world is changing faster than before No freedom fighters anymore Watched by the invisible eye And the chip beneath our skin Stored memories for retrieval Can you remember me What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four What was it like before the war In the year twenty twenty four

The Same Air 04:03
lyrics
buy track
The same air I’m caught up in the moment Unsure of what I must do Feeling the mood of confusion And proclaiming my point of view A life time of thinking has left me More confused than ever before Those voices still echo around me As the facts we blindly ignore I’m caught up in the moment Unsure of what I must do Feeling the mood of confusion And proclaiming my point of view Where next will I wander As the wilderness winds blow cold Looking for a warm and loving heart To watch over me growing old I’m caught up in the moment Unsure of what I must do Feeling the mood of confusion And proclaiming my point of view If I save you for a rainy day And spend all your love with care Or throw caution to the wind As we both breathe the same air I’m caught up in the moment Unsure of what I must do Feeling the mood of confusion And proclaiming my point of view We breathe the same air We breathe the same air We breathe the same air We breathe the same air

Tribe We are all one tribe Why can’t we just get along We are all one tribe Why can’t we just get along If we all stand together Together we’ll be strong If we all stand together Together we’ll be strong In our times of trouble We got to help our fellow man In our times of trouble We got to help our fellow man You gave us all our freedom Then you took it all away You gave us all our freedom Then you took it all away

Oh Well / The Comic Jester 02:50
lyrics

Oh well / The cosmic jester Oh well you never can tell How far we have risen before we fell Well it’s difficult to believe just how many tricks The cosmic jester has up his sleeve The cosmic jester called me out The cosmic jester he scream and shout The cosmic jester’s in my head He won’t rest until I’m dead Life’s funny way of working out I still don’t know what it’s all about Just when I think that I’ve got it straight The cosmic jester seals my fate The cosmic jester stole my mind Rolled me a spliff and said I’ll be fine Opened me the perception door And took me to oblivion Maybe I’ve just been a fool Maybe I broke the golden rule Instant karma bites my arse In the present and the past The cosmic jester called me out The cosmic jester he scream and shout The cosmic jester’s in my head He won’t rest until I’m dead Oh well you never can tell How far we have risen before we fell Well it’s difficult to believe just how many tricks The cosmic jester has up his sleeve

Blood Blues Chaos 03:59
lyrics
buy track
Blood blues chaos You got blood on your hands You got blood on your hands You got anger in your soul You know that blood is thicker than water Well I never had a brother so I don’t know If they start fighting in the streets There’ll be rivers of blood Flowing down the road Well that woman she bled And spilled my dreams on the bed Now the blood on your hands Is from the heart that you hold And cradled in your love You know that blood is thicker than water Well I never had a brother so I don’t know
