Look Back To Look Forward Okay… One more day (in my wake) One more night (hold on tight) Every minute (Seems to count) I’ve only one life (never doubt)) No time to play (your silly games) No time to sleep (I’ve gotta live) No time to say this (I’m writing my song) No love to keep (Don’t tie me down) No time to remember (with a stony gaze) through a murky gaze The era we left behind and it’s musical taste… Taking musical direction… I’m following my heart… Giving it one last chance… (Taking a shot) I’m making a start…. Feeling the strain of this… I’m watching the clock… I’m feeling life slide away… I’ve got to make life rock… To make life rock, it’s no wonder I’m insane… Insane…………………………. Give it one more try… Tell me one more lie… Don’t the years just fly…? Ask the question why? Take a step back in time yeah time to step back yeah back… I’m remembering my past… It’s made us who we are… Yeah take a step back in line… Grasping with both hands… I ‘m remembering my past… I’m gonna live it up some more… Repeat the last 2 lines It’s no wonder I’m insane!

A Place Unholy 03:49
lyrics

A place Unholy Why am I feeling this tonight of all these nights Fighting winter sunshine vibes, all I hoped was a good night Turned away on walking shoes, every where is closed in winter blues End up in a place unholy, cry like a wounded baby x2 I wished I’d stayed at home tonight, what else could I do? This place has an ugly taint, The audience wet blanket blues The band gives it all, the music shines and it puts a smile back on my face. Cheering in a place unholy, Fight like a rabbit posed to flee End up in a place unholy, cry like a wounded baby x2 Back up in a dark corner, what else could I do? Drowning down your sorrows what else could I do? Gazing at a toilet seat what else could I do I wished I’d stayed at home tonight I wished I’d stayed at home tonight, what else could I do Cry like a wounded baby x2 Back up in a dark corner, what else could I do? Drowning down your sorrows what else could I do? Gazing at a toilet seat what else could I do I wished I’d stayed at home tonight

Moving On 03:46
lyrics

Moving On I knew if there could be no beginning…. That we would reach an end of our days together… And there could be no more I love you…. Ooooh yeah Maybe I should have never lived a lie, but I had a certain dream inside… But after all these years, its too late, for regrets, my heart was set to go… I couldn’t bear the weight on my shoulders I should never have given you such hope… I never had a sense of belonging… I had no more strength to cope…. I couldn’t live with all the lies… That I was never in love with you…. I had nothing inside left to give… There was nothing more I could do… You could have walked away at any time, at any moment, saved yourself a broken heart. But you couldn’t see the truth of our situation and saved yourself from these dark filled moments… But you are who you are, and I can’t help what’s to be… I couldn’t stand the darkness weighing down on me… Now you’ve got to let me go, you’ve got to set me free… I couldn’t face another winter, you were blind; I couldn’t make you see… I wish you all the luck to go, find love, and make a new start… I couldn’t make the best of you, I hope you understand… But I wish you happiness, I wish you love and now at last I’ll be moving on…. Ooooh yeah…. (Ad lib) I’m gonna waste no time, take no time, it’s gonna be alright… Take your time, take your time, It’s gonna be alright… Moving on, go with the flow, life is such, we’ll be fine Take a breath, take a breath, take a step, it’s gonna be alright. I won’t be looking over my shoulder… I ‘m gonna make all my dreams come true…. I’m gonna make the best of the rest of this life… I know that it will be alright with you too… I’m gonna be looking on to the future… And putting all the bitterness aside… I can’t change what was destined to be with us… We haven’t got eternity to get it right…

Wheel of Sorrow 07:45
lyrics

Wheel of sorrow The fires burned so bright… Castles fallen far within me… An end to it all… Did we fight it at all…? Did we reach only to fall…? Whatever we thought… Theirs no end to the wheel of sorrow…x2 The cloud’s pour out the filth… Butcher’s knife’s gleam with their blood… In this quest for life did we request death? Babies born to suffer…? Born to struggle… theirs no way off the wheel of sorrow…x4 Sat in this burned out building… looking to the burning sky Hear the children cry… with their hungry eyes… Nothing to hope for…in this madness… There’s no way off the wheel of sorrow… Lucky in their riches… thoughtless of their filthy rags Squat low in the sewers... Only waken to be thrown… Lie in cremated ashes… let the wind blow it far away… No tears left to cry… In the starless sky… Looking for your next meal to eat…no better than a tramp on the street… Desperate to find your feet… nowhere to go… nowhere to sleep… All you do is live this day… no more rules… no more games… The only art is to stay alive… making sure your children survive… There’s no way off the wheel of sorrow

about

My first published music and it's been a long time in the making! I wanted to work on something small to start with and tried to think of the most diverse and different tracks i had and put them on the same Album
Many thanks to Martin Eve who has really supported me through the whole process. I'm already working on my next work
