The Wolf, The Angel Philanthropist And Saint
The Architect, The Nightingale All To Heaven Went
One By One They Shuffled Off One By One Were Sent
Each In Time They Took Their Turn Each In Time They Left
The Bold, The Beautiful The Master And The Slave
Politician, President None Of Which Were Saved
All In Time They Took A Bow All In Time Went Away
Perfectly Preserved And Yet Perfectly Decayed
And Still, We Strive To Control The Burn
Still, We Try.... To Avoid Our Turn
We Spend Our Lives.... Maintaining Our Concern For
Controlling The Burn
Your God, The Mirror Yourself And Within
The Only Ones That You Can Trust The Only Ones Let In
Time And Time, It’s Proven Right Time And Time Again
Candidates For The Fight Candidates For Killing
We Live, To Burn We Choose When To Die
Invincible Invisible The Same Old Lie
Round And Round, We Go Again
Round And Round, We Cry
Not Knowing When It Ends Not Knowing Why…
And Still, We Strive To Control The Burn
Still, We Try.... To Avoid Our Turn
We Spend Our Lives.... Maintaining Our Concern For
Controlling The Burn

We Are The One

Some kind of communication,
affects us all in a way
The years of looking and listening,
all leading to this day
First contact celebration the time is drawing near
Divides across the nation those who welcome those who fear
The feeling of hope as somebody spoke and said we’re not alone here
The fire in your heart that lights from the spark that someone is out there
It changes today and you hope it will stay and the world will be better
The things we could learn if trust we could earn from someone who’s out there
A plan of propaganda to keep us all in line
The thinkers and the dreamers they study every sign
Beware the politician, the military man
They have their own agenda, they work a different plan
The feeling of hope as somebody spoke and said we’re not alone here
The fire in your heart that lights from the spark that someone is out there
It changes today and you hope it will stay and the world will be better
The things we could learn if trust we could earn from someone who’s out there
And when you look above do you see life or do you see God
We are the stuff of stars, we are the one
All light will come to you if you stand staring into space
We are a point in time we are the one
The feeling of hope as somebody spoke and said we’re not alone here
The fire in your heart that lights from the spark that someone is out there
It changes today and you hope it will stay and the world will be better
The things we could learn if trust we could earn from someone who’s out there
We are the one We are the one We are the one

Ballad Of The Dadz

It seems to me the only point of my existence
Turning off the lights around the house in every single room
Grumping around the place, I don’t get out as much now
Don’t play guitar as often these days as I used to do
Where’s all the time I used to give myself for music
It’s eaten up with cleaning all the stuff around the house
Worried I might offend someone with my opinion
Screaming inside but outside I’m as quiet as a mouse
Unblock the plug of hair although I haven’t any
Checking the fridge for beer, remember drinking with the lads
Although I grump I wouldn’t change the life I’m living
It’s therapy to write it as the ballad of the dadz
