Baby Can you hear it?
Theres a wind thats blowin
Can you feel it?
Comin right down the road
Looks like its gonna tear it all down & Take it away
It's gonna take us outta town now
Or So thats what they say
Whatch it all crash with a Bam and a boom
It's times like these we should be feelin the gloom
But we got love
Oh baby there will be pain
and there will be fear
but we got love so wipe away those tears
Baby can you believe it
thats our ship thats comin
can you see it pullin up on the shore?
Looks like it's gonna straighten out now
Ridin the waves
Crack a bottle on the Prow now then sail away
Watch those babies grow and head off to school
Take a little time on the beach lookin cool
Cuz we got love
Oh baby there will be pain
and there will be fear
but we got love so wipe away those tears
Born with a mind like no other and a will to see things through
Easily they inspire another with a heart that's warm and true
Nothing is impossible to them
Cuz there will be outside foes who deal an aweful blow
But this Champion was born to win
But she was born at a time and born of a place
Where her voice is a crime and they cover her face
All of these fools who try to bury her light are lost in the world
always picking a fight
The time is now! the time is now
Strip all of this covering away
To the streets! To the streets!! Show them your strength today
Friday and you just got paid
if you could get outta work you'd have it made
Watcha gonna do my baby?
We just wanna get outta town
We just wanna burn it down
Escape the hell that pays the bills
Feeling like all the doors are locked
On the wall the clock has already stopped
What will you do my baby
We just wanna get outta town
We just wanna burn it down
Escape the hell that pays the bills
Aint had a vacation in as long as I can remember
Gotta get outta here
Gotta get outta here
We just wanna get outta town
We just wanna burn it down
Escape the hell that pays the bills
Here is it its time to blow
Gonna hit the skids cause its time to go now
where to now my baby?
Have you ever had the sunshine burn your eyes?
Have you ever seen Kama and Rati in disguise?
But you can't see it
it's a flame burning in the shade
and you can't feel it, it's a love that has it made
Can you hear the love thats calling?
And can you see the shadow falling?
But you can't see it
it's a flame burning in the shade
and you can't feel it, it's a love that has it made
Across the room you see her
Man she's a real heart stinger
Your eyes meet but your'e glued to your chair
How the hell will you get over there?
You gotta put one foot in front of the other
You gotta get on it before another
It's a great big crazy world
Gotta get on out there and give life a whirl
Aint no body gonna do for you, you gotta do for yourself
And if you bite off more than you can chew let me tell you what to do
You gotta put one foot in front of the other
You gotta get on it before another
Life aint always easy baby
Sometimes you find yourself in a hole
How can you get out?
Nobody around? heres what you gotta do
You gotta put one foot in front of the other
You gotta get on it before another
Here I am just hanging on every word you say
Outside the world is spinning as it does everyday
Cuz they dont see what I see
My eyes have been cleared by the sn
Days are no more empty
It all comes back to one
Rest our bones under that old shade tree
Think about the world around us
Nothing is wrong anywhere unless we make it that way
Cuz they dont see what I see
My eyes have been cleared by the sn
Days are no more empty
It all comes back to one
Wake each day before the sun, You board that train so much to be done
Take a window seat you see the sky is the limit
In the beautiful smiles you know their heart is in it
The conductor boards with warmth in his eyes and a sly smile
he looks at you and says
To obscurity and beyond
Claim these rails your'e riding on
One day here the next day gone
Every day same train, same seat, same window view of the sky and your limits
The indifferent smiles they say good day to you sir
You return to your thoughts but your heart just isn't in it
The conductor boards with a shock of grey and tired eyes
in a knowing smile he says
To obscurity and beyond
Claim these rails your'e riding on
One day here the next day gone
On the day the conductor passed
The train was there in the middle of the tracks
Away they took him dressed in black
You know the days you lose are never coming back
Days go by
You board that train with your children who have joined you
Your little one smiles and asks for the window seat
You give it away without any hesitation
That's when they say Dad I love you
To obscurity and beyond
Claim these rails your'e riding on
One day here the next day gone
Don't let your days go by
Set Adrift, Dusty mote set to float and that's all the she wrote
Set Adrift, Big ol world soul is hurled but it's fetally curled
Set Adrift, All mistakes I can make every pain I can take
Set Adrift, Ragged bones all atones as they rot all alone
I'm Adrift, I'll march in line I'll be fine such a petty design but I'm Adrift
Can you feel if anything is real
I've been up on the mountain far down below
Still don't know
Take my hands take my feet
Take my face and laugh at me when I cant walk
Can't talk
When you're down who do you call
Who will catch you when you fall
I believe it should be me
Set adrift now and you will see
That it isn't all that sad
They say that time waits for no one
don't step from that train until you're done
Gone are the days lost in your history
Don't lose yourself in a memory
Climb that wall to victory
I'll see you there
Reason has arisen from the realm of recent dead
The mission is to season but I listen to my head
When troublesome is doublesome when dancing in the dark
Not a light could e'er be lit if no one had a spark
So I've learned to loathe and lost the love
can't see nothing but clouds above
Hatred as it fly's like spit
A heart that hasn't hardened is a heart that doesn't quit
Mamma I can't see, The Darkness has a hold on me
Listen to the whispers from the biforkated tongue
and watch the world around us as it feeds upon its young
theres a little attic space that few will ever know
as most are in the basement pit with crazy bearded Joe
So I've learned to loathe and lost the love
can't see nothing but clouds above
Hatred as it fly's like spit
A heart that hasn't hardened is a heart that doesn't quit
Up on the hill there is a flower garden
on a tree a little door to a fantasy place
if this story's hard to tell I beg your pardon
please forgive what you see rolling down my face
On a silver comet you flew to heaven
and the children all gathered round to wave
I can still hear the words of the reverend
and all the words I wish I didn't save
On the trail today a silver haired father
in his pocket the last word's that he will ever say
This day forever his children will wonder
and wish it all had went some other way
On a silver comet you flew to heaven
and the children all gathered round to pray
I can still hear the words of the reverend
and all the words I wish I didn't save
There we were all gathered on an old windy hill
Saying good bye's together too soon
from that day on the children's soul's still reel
like the notes to a sorrow filled tune
On a silver comet you flew to heaven
and the children all gathered round to wave
I can still hear the words of the reverend
and all the words I wish I didn't save
On the hill there once was a garden of flowers
and a door to a sorrow filled place
no more dreams to rain like spring shower
no more dark for the light to give chase
On a silver comet you flew to heaven
and the children all gathered round to wave
I can still hear the words of the reverend
and all the words I wish I didn't save
The details here are all mine
look in any cell and you'll find
Even when I cease to be
The DNA remains to see
Light me up when its time to go
Nothing left for folk to know
Watch that smoke rise to the sky
As my mind is set to fly
The spiral staircase binds me here
I just wanna jump free and clear
Wont need this shell no more
No potters field and long years to store
Light me up when its time to go
Nothing left for folk to know
Watch that smoke rise to the sky
As my mind is set to fly
Floating down, ashes on the stream
a scenic way down to the sea
Slowly Slowly
No more harried days for me
Slowly Slowly
Light me up when its time to go
Nothing left for folk to know
Watch that smoke rise to the sky
As my mind is set to fly
Across the sea, Across the Sea
These days are blurred but with certainty
How to get back? How to return?
Back to the one for whom my heart doeth yearn
Ahoohoo Ahoohoo
Forgotten words I sing for you
Ahoohoo Ahoohoo
All remaining thoughts for you
All of the times I tried to forget
Tried to move along without regret
Dimming days took nearly all
Except for you with Clean recall
Ahoohoo Ahoohoo
Forgotten words I sing for you
Ahoohoo Ahoohoo
All remaining thoughts for you
Today I go, Bid me farewell
Keep an ear out for horn or bell
Im on the train to close the span
To Fill the void that broke this man
Ahoohoo Ahoohoo
Forgotten words I sing for you
Ahoohoo Ahoohoo
All remaining thoughts for you
Out in a field many generations past
lay a man whose life is fading fast
these days though many carry his name
All of his concerns are lost just the same
Time has a way to erase want and desire
culture nor expression survive in this fire
One of these days when the harmones dont flow
That'll be when the regret starts to show
They shout in the streets "This aint a crime"
as we write our stories one choice at a time
In the mind of the man who sees his fate so close
the reality of importance suddenly grows
this moment seems so small in the breadth of time
to squander it on pettiness should be a crime
you mortgage future generations that carry your name
for temporal expression in lifes foolish game
One of these days when the harmones dont flow
That'll be when the regret starts to show
They shout in the streets "This aint a crime"
as we write our stories one choice at a time
When young if you do not form an anchor
you drift away in your own sea of rancor
painting fingers of pointing blame
ignorant of your own personal shame
Fools words seem so sure
And leave less than nothing for the future
Unto days of restless life I want to sleep forever
A double edged knife, a weak will tasked the dark to sever
Stand Tall! an Aching back as we watch worlds fall
We need to be heroes of the day
With Gilded arms and hearts so humble
Anxious steps forward into the fray
On solid ground yet still we stumble
Our motivation may have slipped yet here we are with nothing ostentatious
Very well equipped, prepared to rest but guaranteed to be always ready and audacious
We need to be heroes of the day
With Gilded arms and hearts so humble
Anxious steps forward into the fray
On solid ground yet still we stumble
Through the trees we feel the breeze
And warming sun upon our knees
While patiently we wait for time to roll
Unto the dark we make our stand
Assumptions made in all we planned
On our feet it's time to go
We need to be heroes of the day
With Gilded arms and hearts so humble
Anxious steps forward into the fray
On solid ground yet still we stumble
In a darkened room, sleep and see
Forever with this dream
You'll never take it away from me
We were dancing on what should be Hallowed Ground
Beyond the arches of stone grave faces all surround
And then we see the son setting down
Now here I am all alone in an empty room just me and this tome
Every page is every day every choice I ever made
All underlined with what my conscious tried to say
What has been seen
Can't be unseen
Changes the way you think
Thirsting for the light
Defeat the pain of knowing right
the water is the light
Seek and find
