Caught Up In The Middle

Slow down! Not so fast! Closing my eyes against this light
So far, Bunch of laughs, burning the candle, lost the chance…
What happens? It’s simple, decisions.. I don’t know
A gamble, A dice roll, and now I’m caught in the middle...
Take Care! Don’t look down! Hold on tight! White knuckle ride...
Head burns of all this stuff, Stuck in the middle of indecision…
Confusion? Exclusion? Throw the dice and I still don’t know..
Delusion, Illusion, Fate keeps me caught in the middle…
Caught in the middle
Oh! Got my heart in a wiggle...
Bridge
Uphill running… Nowhere safe in sight...
Torches burning, but I can’t see its light…
Just when I had figured all this out…
Different questions filled me with new doubts…
Yesterday the world seemed in its Place
Now a detour pushes us in Haste…
Hold on! Heads or tails? Torn in to two.. Hands in the fire..
Pass go! Rising high… Dancing down this bumpy road
The tides turn... A new tune.. Move the body and just let go!
The sun rise... A new day… Fate keeps me caught in the middle…

Blinding Light

Moments… two hours…
The sun shone down as I closed my eyes in your arms…
Between the hundreds of miles.. my arms reach out
now…..
In longing… So Bitter sweet…
How can I survive..
tight rope… my body trembles as I tumble down..
Chorus?
Still leaping… chasing these dreams
carry me away… on a careless sigh..
on these wings of bliss..
Roller Coaster.. white knuckle ride…
Still racing… catching my breath..
On this blinding light..
Verse2
Loneliness…. left behind
for these small moments with you…
Caught up… magic spell
Concealed feelings revealed inside of me…
Longing… So bitter sweet
like a moth drawn to the flame…
In hope…..Throwing my hands in to the fire
Chorus
Instrumental break
Still leaping Carry me away

Phantom Love
05:11
|
|
||
|
Alone with my thoughts, I have no words to say
Goodbye my friend, we will laugh while we can
Just like the unexpected snow melting in the spring
It just couldn't last, but I still feel your sting (but you pulled my strings)
Chorus
Phantom love… that still holds on...
My dreams don’t remember, that you are now gone
Haunted by ghosts... of memory…
Taunted by promises of what might have been?
Some kind of peace... That I've tried hard to find
The ache in my heart, chaos in my mind
Midnight whispers of ghosts of the past....
Echoes of yesterday, since you have passed...
Chorus 2
Phantom love… that still holds on..
My dreams don’t remember, that you are now gone
Haunted by ghosts... of memory…
Taunted by promises... Please set me free…
Bridge
Because in love in pain, in death, we're still chained
Poison to my soul, since your love was claimed?
Oooo Please set me free x3

Overflow
04:56
|
|
||
|
Verse 1
Time to dive for shelter, here comes the sudden rush of the rain.
Waiting for the dark clouds, to break so we can see the sun again
Lying under cover, I can barely hear you as the storm sustains
The force from the storm sounds, so strong! shaking the window pane
Chorus
Outside in the violence, everything lost in the overflow
Can you hear me through the river-fall?
Everything lost in the overflow…
Can you hear the power?
Everything lost in the overflow…
Leaving nothing behind
Everything lost in the overflow…
Verse 2
Strong within its frenzy, of the shrieking, tearing, howls and screams
Working against us in the darkness, while we tried to sleep
The river rises higher, sweeping everything away in its path
I watched your photograph, floating down this stream in the aftermath
Bridge
Stranded without shelter Can you hear me calling? X2
Waiting the calm, Waiting after the storm
Lost in the river overflow
Stranded without shelter Can you hear me calling?
Verse 1 Chorus

Lady Of The Waterfall
05:03
|
|
||
|
Verse 1
Softly the oak sways
A mystical dance in May
A Sea of Bluebells
Lay down by your side
A mist of concealment
Tempting delights
Whispers in trees
Until the moon sheds its light
The Rush of the waterfall
In the pool of enchanted souls
Who know what will befall
Where the rhea water flows
Lost in the Snowfall
Her long hair hides her face
She captures his presence
In the spell of her grace
Chorus
Can you hear her? she's calling you!
Ooh Can you see her
She waits for the darkness to fall
Can’t you tell what she’s longing for
that you were falling for?
The lady of the Waterfall
Instrumental
Vocal solo

Father Mould
03:20
|
|
||
|
We were close once upon a time when I was young
Remembering the days when you was really highly strung
This song’s about the pain you’ve given me thru out my life
Cos all the time I’ve kept it hidden deeper down inside
You were living round the corner but you never came to see
How we were getting on, see your only family
You beat me without remorse, left me grieving in the dark
I’ve never understood but I guess it’s left its mark
Father Mould – yeah I fit the father mould
Father mould – Let the truths be told
Father Mould – how I fit the father mould
Father Mould - Let the truths be told
I take it all back x3 How can I ever forgive you? A E
I take my life back x3 But I can never forget you! C F
All these years have passed and yet nothing is undone
Feel the gap left in my life won’t close until we are done
I swore I wouldn’t be like you when I had a family
I never let them down, not even momentarily
For many years I felt I didn’t need you in my life
I was moving on and taking things into my stride
Yet something wasn’t right, kept my feelings locked inside
Just like you, I couldn’t tell you what was on my mind
Father Mould, I feel I fit the
Father Mould
Let the truths be told,
I take it all back x3 I can never forgive you
I take my life back But I can never forget you
Even though I hate it guess I fit the father mould x2
Can’t help but forgive you but it’s so hard to forget
All the memories and feelings when you couldn’t stop the red
I blamed you long enough, although the past is dead and gone
Couldn’t shake away the bitterness, the damage is all done

Verse 1
It’s like this.. The unknown.. Waiting Game.. all Over Blown..
Just beyond my fingertips.. Happiness.. from sugar lips..
Accelerate to a better place.. No more talk.. Cut to the chase
Been through too much.. to let it go.. Decision time, just let me know, How can I get through to you?
That’s what you do, You drag your feet, What do you want. What do you need..
We’ve got the World at our Fingertips.. We could be running wild over the blips
Why let it slide.. to a dark place.. All that’s past.. Just gone to waste
We lit the Fire.. Lets make it roar.. Lets make it burn.. Its now our turn, How can I get through to you?
Chorus
AAHH.. Wont you Tell me who you really are..
AAHH… Won’t you Tell me what you really want…
Verse 2
I’ll Show you.. Just what you need.. Its up to you.. because Your free.
No holding back.. Over what’s gone.. Those Memories already done..
Waste no more time… Just let it go.. Love gone to waste.. Nothing to show
Live out our dreams.. That we once knew.. The Futures here.. Another avenue.
How can I get through to you?
Chorus
What do you think you’re doing, Don’t you waste my time..
Get back on my Right Side
Where do you think you’re going.. Don’t you waste my time?
Get back on my right side.

Lined in Scars
03:45

|

|
Many miles so I don’t see you now
Lost in fragments but I have memories
Left for afar I’m left with this void...
But I go on even though I miss your voice
No forgiveness... I thought we had many miles to go
I feel your blame.. It cuts into my soul…
I wish otherwise but you can’t change the clock..
No communication.. I’m left feeling this shock
Chorus
Distance widening.. Seat belt on..
This long journey has only just begun..
Driving far away through a land with unknown paths
Follow this one branch in a land paved in scars
A land paved in Scars
It broke my heart.. When I heard him say to you
Oh well, It’s time to go, I guess It’s just us two
Travel far away with you into the night..
My heart beats with fear that you’ll be alright
Broken promises is all I had to give you
Our allotted time was over far too soon
I hope you realise I never had a choice
In-between the opposites you never had a voice
Chorus
A land paved in scars

Out the window… Moonlight glimmers Eb
On the river… Feeling Shivers
Look around us…. Knows my secrets C#
There’s a little child inside of me… B F# G

I hear your laughter… Float around me…
Fleeing from the sun… Mark the day as done…
There’s a little girl hidden inside of me… B F# F
Shrouded in darkness at the edge of my vision.Eb
Always beside me but never in reach Eb
Behind the curtain Knows all my wrong moves B
Knows all my secrets F#
Me and my shadow… G#

Dancing Shadows… In the sun rays
Watch the cats play.. Pounce at the black shapes
Always shifting… In the candle light…
There’s a little girl locked inside me…
Daylight fading… The sun is setting. Eb C# B
I hear your whisper… Somewhere deep within…
Shadows dancing… I try to understand
This little girl looking back at me
I’m dancing with shadows… They follow me where ever I go.. (Repeat)
It knows what I’m feeling… My hearts desires…
It knows where I stand… Me and my shadow…
It knows where I’ll fall… my true intentions
Me and my shadow…

She's So High
08:53
|
|
||
|
Take a while to clear my head!
She’s coming out to forget
Take a while to clear my head
She’s coming out, out to forget!
Verse 1
She often takes a walk down memory lane, tantalised, freedom vice, hasn’t she anything else left.
So she takes a taste of driest wine, alone, confused but she feels the vibe.
She wants to whisper goodbye to all the sad times and yeah come on bring on all those good vibes and all the positive hope that the future holds.
In a hole of a home, in a nightmare of a dream…
She dreams of sunbathe fields, sweetest appeal, she’s lying back, facing facts, don’t look back.
Nostrils flare with the fragrance of flowers, dance with trees, lying naked feeling pleased.
Chorus
She’s living life in a positive way. Wears her heart on her sleeve, tries her hardest to please, but life’s a bitch.
She doesn’t know what the hell she wants! X2
She doesn’t know but who the fuck cares anyway
He made her laugh, he made her scream, and he made her high…
Verse 2
She’s living life in the fast lane, tripping out, a child gone wild.
A desperate sigh in trying times, we’re dancing with a sensual slide
Guess she never hurt anyone but was left out in the cold
She doesn’t know what the hell she wants! X2
She doesn’t know!
24 hours to kill…
Won’t you turn on my light…? X2 Living life
Ad lib
Take a while to clear my head! Dance don’t leave dance don’t leave…
She’s alright… She’s so high!

Dance With Me Habibi

Dance with me Habibi
Written on her lips
Spoken by her heart
Choking on his name
Tearing me apart
To the music that only we can hear
Let it sweep us into Heaven
Come, dance with me here
Let it sweep us into heaven
Come, dance with me here
Till night breaks into day
Chorus
Dance with me Habibi
Until the darkness goesX3
Dance with me Habibi ooh
Glowing in your eyes
Take away the loneliness
That I’ve felt inside
Dance away the hopelessness
Come and hold me closer; and dance with me habibi
Till the night breaks to day
Chorus

All Is One

|
Fire is flowing through my veins
You are now my obsession
Fear is racing through my brain.
You are now my only vision.
Maybe this is just a lie
I don’t care about the truth.
You are now my whole desire
Teach me a new destination.
My hand now holds a new torch
Until the empty parts are filled by you.
Wished that you could know this.
As I stand outside your room.
Maybe this is just a dream
So why do I feel so alive
We carry parts of the same star *
beating now in both our hearts *
All…. Is …. One
All ….is ….one….
All….is one….
Maybe this is just a lie
I don’t care about the truth.
You are now my whole desire
Teach me a new destination.
