Clown World 05:24
Clown World © David Harrington 2023 Chorus Clown World, we’re living in clown world So I wonder why, everybody cries Clown world, we’ve turned in to clown world So why does nobody laugh any more And fight with each other to get out the door V1 Where do you begin? To describe the mess we’re in Up is down, down is up And we never seem to have enough Cursing at the past Clubbing it hard and fast As if there were never anything there Anything about which we really should care V2 How did we survive? How did we stay alive? In that unenlightened age In all our heathen rage I wonder how it will end? We divide and divide again Until we’re standing in groups of one Staring at the black sun Chorus V3 Tell me why you cry? And why you want to die? An existential crisis Is not a crisis at all Please see that they tell you lies And find the joy inside Reach down in your soul Take back some control V4 Look at the way the crowd is running today And pick up and run the other way A conforming non-conformist Conforms just the same I wonder how it will end? We divide and divide again Until we’re standing in groups of one Staring at the black sun Chorus Bridge Don’t tell me now that you are suffering Cos I’ve heard it all before And don’t think that you are a warrior for the truth You serve the evil wizard who’s hiding behind the door

V1 Shadows long and eerie the Fear clutched at her throat She cursed her situation Fingering the note, as she read V2 Money for silence Midnight on the dot A simple cash transaction the price for getting caught Ch One sin could ruin her One more set her free A blueblood executioner Would the devil hear her plea At war with God, and Lucifer And Bitten by the beast V3 His greedy eyes enraged her She loathed his evil grin Her shame and rage exploded She thrust the dagger in V4 She knew her life was over now Watching him expire The threat would always haunt her And cast her into the fire Ch One sin could ruin her One more could set her free A blueblood executioner Would heaven hear her plea At war with God and Lucifer Bitten by the beast Br She scurried on home Like a common sewer rat The life she knew was over In one impulsive act Ch One sin could ruin her One more could set her free A blueblood executioner Would heaven hear her plea At war with God and Lucifer Bitten by the beast

V1 let’s stand together side by side let our voices ring out with pride we can’t be silenced or denied as dignity is justified C rise up let’s rise up let your voices be heard with love, kindness and respect in words united with song let’s get it on get it on V2 let’s embrace peace now and all that’s true let all people love who they choose we can’t dictate beliefs or predict views but with compassion we won’t lose C Let’s get it on In words united with song with love, kindness and respect we’ve not seen the best yet B let’s sing out strong let our spirits soar let’s sing together for freedoms ignored let’s sing for love and something more let’s reach for the sky not hold the floor C rise up let’s rise up let your voices be heard with love, kindness and respect in words united with song let’s get it on get it on

Time to Change INTRO V1 When they try to own ya Take your soul and sell it for ya Giving it all away For more white powder get you thru the day When you’d do literally anything To get that next fix on in Piss on your mother’s grave That when you realise that you’re the slave V2 Lower than a snake can go Dignity can come and go When would do just anything To close the deal and get your way And here you come again My one and only true true friend Reaching down so very low Simply refusing to let me go CH I wanna thank you baby For giving me time to change Time to rearrange To put those pieces back together now There can be no greater love Than for you to wait for me On the other side On the side of life V3 Every time I think about The things that I have done The wreckage that I left behind For the people I’m supposed to love And I did care at all? Did I hell, I was in a fall Lower than a snake can go Just how low, well I don’t know V4 Do we always kill the thing we love Is it pre-ordained, is it from above Did I have to keep on going now Until there’s nothing left at all But here you come again My one and only true true friend Reaching down so very low Simply refusing to let me go CH (2)

© 2023 Cindy Prince Even when the light was green When the moon was seen When you intervened I wouldn't go Even when the door was open When I wasn't broken When your words were spoken I wouldn't go But that's no true anymore Chorus No more stop signs No more red lights No more dotted lines I'm ready to fight No stops signs or red lights or barriers in my mind I’m ready to fight, I’m ready to fight for you Even when it wasn't hard When I wasn't barred W2 hen you were my lifeguard I wouldn't go Bridge The light was on but I didn't see it Thank you for getting me through it Repeat chorus

Paranoia 04:44
Paranoia (C) David Harrington 2023 Just because you’re paranoid That doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you You might just be right You might have hit the nail on the head Drowning in a sea of lies The propaganda flows thick and relentless How can I tell when they lie? That’s very simple you can see their lips move. Chorus Nothing is real, nothing is true 2 plus 2 is five, it must be ‘cos they told you Controlling the air you beathe They know best just what you need Nothing is real, nothing is true 2 plus 2 is five, it must be ‘cos they told you Controlling what’s in your head And rationing your daily bread You tell me that I’m parnoid But it’s a shield I’m happy to bear Protects me from the worst of the lies Allows me to see beyond their cheating eyes It all about control, controlling your mind Something to which most folks are blind Led by the nose over the edge With their “message of hope” ringing in your head Chorus Nothing is real, nothing is true 2 plus 2 is five, it must be ‘cos they told you Controlling the air you beathe They know best just what you need Nothing is real, nothing is true 2 plus 2 is five, it must be ‘cos they toldn you Controlling what’s in your head And rationing your daily bread

Riding the Hurricane Long ago I threw away my last lantern And plunged into the vastness of that dark cavern There was something there I had to find I knew I’d see much better by going blind And when I came out to the light of morning A menacing white thunderhead above me was forming It seemed the choices facing me were stark But I had found my wisdom in the dark (Chorus) I could be safe and warm Instead of riding on the storm But every shelter finally fails I’m riding at full speed And the sky begins to bleed With messages about the end of history That’s why I’m riding… That’s why I’m riding… That’s why I’m riding… the hurricane Apocalypse is just a name for insight Revealed to us as we strain in the fading twilight The new day will bring famine or bring feast So starve or come and climb onto this beast (Chorus) I could have been safe and warm Instead of riding on the storm But every shelter finally fails I’m riding at full speed And the sky begins to bleed With messages about the end of history That’s why I’m riding… That’s why I’m riding… That’s why I’m riding… the hurricane (Bridge) You can spend forever looking back at all that might’ve been Or you can ride come with me… ride upon the wind (Instrumental) (Chorus) I could be safe and warm Instead of riding on the storm But every shelter finally fails bitterly I’m riding at full speed And the sky begins to bleed With messages about the end of history That’s why I’m riding… That’s why I’m riding… That’s why I’m riding… the hurricane (Repeat)

C in this madness witches gather around in this darkness chaos abounds it this madness things escalate in this darkness cities go up in flames we’re left with ashes and only ourselves to blame

2 Midsummer Day © David Harrington 2023 Ohh ohh uh ohhh (2) Verse 1 Well we waited a long time For the Sun to shine again Midsummers day is here And I can finally breathe again Verse 2 Through the days of darkness Winter’s death grip on our soul And we drifted in sadness All of this beyond control Pre All the things that we want to say The darkness swept it all away Emerging into the blinding light I know and feel we can make it right Chorus Why run away? From all the joys of a summer’s day I can help you understand. LIfe will be better than you planned Why run away? From all the joys of a summer’s day Together we can make a stand Life is better lived first hand Verse 3 Not such a long time ‘til Winter swings around again Making the most of what we find In the sunshine or in rain Pre All the things that we want to say The darkness swept it all away Emerging into the blinding light I know and feel we can make it right Chorus Bridge Day after day Always looking the other way All we have is time Sitting waiting for the Sun to shine (2)

The Joy of Being Dumb V I take a walk down Liberty Street Leaving my brain behind No compulsion to think at all With an empty becalmed mind Never asking any questions Now why would I do that? I might uncover something disturbing And who the hell wants that? Chorus The joy of being dumb Thinking’s such a curse If I saw the world as it truly is Things would be much worse (2) V. Just feed me any shit Into my tiny empty mind And I’ll just clap and sing along As an aid for the blind It’s vastly underrated Being as dumb as a box of rocks Cos you’ll believe just anything To avoid being put into the wrong box Spoon feed me bullshit now On a ladled and heaped spoon Provide me with the music And I will dumbly hum the tune

No Place For Me To Go © 2020 Cindy Prince I feel like I'm walking a tightrope But I'm sure I'll fall to the ground There isn't anyone there to catch me With my landing there won't be a sound I feel like I'm in a wooden barrel Going over Niagara Falls There's nothing there to stop me There is no one that cares at all Chorus Am I truly invisible? Or is there nothing of me to show? I'm disappearing as I write this There's no place for me to go No place for me to go I feel like I'm running through fire Or in another century I've drowned There's no sign of me anywhere Not one piece of me can be found Is this all somehow my destiny? Was I meant to be obsolete? There's nothing to do but fade away now An existence so incomplete

New World Vision © David Harrington 2023 Verse Justify Ask yourself if you’re truly loving Your fellow man In every way that you can Don’t vilify Don’t always find the fault in others As you pass by Leave behind a peaceful soul Pre Take me alive Take me to your leader now Come on inside All we really need is a new world vision Chorus It could be better It could be worse Life is not something to you need to rehearse But you can make your zone of peace And you will be released

I'll Try 05:42
I’LL TRY I’ll try to write a love song From the ashes of a fire Try to capture something From the burning of a pyre I’ll try to seek forgiveness For the things that I have done Try to walk more slowly Instead of on the run I’ll try to build our mountain From this rubble in my hand Try to make a difference And know where I should stand I’ll try to love you better Than the way that this began Try to be supportive And to be a better man I’ll try Yes I’ll try Sixty years of cruising Ain’t no alibi I’ll try Yes I’ll try Help me with my weakness Until the day I die. I’ll try Yes I’ll try Sixty years of cruising Ain’t no alibi I’ll try Yes I’ll try Help me with my weakness Until the day I die. I’ll try to be your council Be your fortress in the storm Cradle you from danger Like when some things go wrong I’ll try to be a giver But most of all your friend Cherish every memory Until our pathways end I’ll try to build our mountain From this rubble in my hand Try to make a difference And know where I should stand I’ll try to love you better Than the way that this began Try to be supportive And to be a better man I’ll try Yes I’ll try Sixty years of cruising Ain’t no alibi I’ll try Yes I’ll try Help me with my weakness Until the day I die. You know I know it’s not easy r r I know you know it too You know I have a record That’s very far from true Even the hardest heart Still beats the same tune And a penitent sinner Can still shoot for the moon. I’ll try Yes I’ll try Sixty years of cruising Ain’t no alibi I’ll try Yes I’ll try Help me with my weakness Until the day I die. Please help me with my weakness Until the day I die.

Stranger In Another Time (Verse 1) I'm a stranger in another time Caught a ghost train to the end of the line I do not belong here I don’t fit in The same sun hits my face But doesn’t warm my skin, oh no (Chorus) I'm looking for meaning in a world that don't care Can't see the light cos there's too much glare No point in bitchin' that life's unfair Who cares? No-one (Verse 2) There is danger when the timelines blur Fell off my horse into a car still kicking my spurs Do not get on here I'm all out of place Stuck at the start line While others run their own race (Chorus) I'm looking for meaning in a world that doesn't care Can't see the light cos there's too much glare No point in bitchin' that life's unfair Who cares? I can tell you that it’s no-one (Verse 3) I'm a stranger in another time Caught that ghost train to the end of my line Something's wrong here I'm fading away Life should be a rainbow So why is everything just grey (Bridge) Hear the train Come a rollin' down the line The whistle blows It calls to take me back in time (2 ) (Chorus) I'm looking for meaning in a world that don't care Can't see the light cos there's too much glare No point in bitchin' that life's unfair Who cares? No-one Written by Simon Wright (July 2023)

Into the Fire © 2020 Cindy Prince Verse 1 It was burning But I didn't turn back It was scorching I could hear the trees crack It was blazing I could feel the heat It was blasting And I had a window seat Chorus Like a wildfire Searing the ground I kept going Cos I couldn't turn around Deep down I knew it Disaster would come But I kept driving faster Into the fire.. yeah Verse 2 I was flaming But I kept on going I was smoldering The hot wind blowing I was sweltering But I drove on I was sizzling Knowing it was wrong Chorus Bridge Closer and closer Hotter and hotter It's boiling over There is no water Repeat chorus (2)

Lyrics Intro You wanted the world And climbed over bodies to claim it You held what was ‘good’ by the throat And slowly you shamed it V1 Like the painting in Dorian’s attic The mirror in your hallway will change Edges will tarnish, the backing will peel Little by little to slowly reveal How the eyes looking back Have turned hollow Like vict’ry on paths that you followed Chorus Things are going to get ugly When the mirror spills the beans It knows your thoughts Your every plot All your wicked dreams V2 Like the painting in Dorian’s attic The mirror in your hallway will know Lovers you lied to, or friends left for dead Begging for mercy, for water or bread How you broke everything That was sacred Exposed what should never be naked Chorus Things are going to get ugly When the mirror spills the beans It knows your thoughts Your every plot All your wicked dreams Bridge The mirror will turn as dark as night And shriek before it shatters Leaving your life in shards on the floor As you tremble in front of the attic door Chorus Things are going to get ugly When the mirror spills the beans It knows your thoughts Your every plot All your wicked dreams Outro (optional) Heed this tale of mirrored decay In the end, no surface remains Only the bones of choices made …Whether they’re black or whether they’re white Will reflect what your soul has gained © 2023 Donna Devine

V1 Even though you try You can’t find a better path The road you’re on is rocky But it’s your only way home Assailed on all sides By people with an evil intent Trying to drag you down Into the abyss V2 Fortify your mind Build the walls you need inside To keep the devil out Stop him stealing your soul Time to be a man Not something to be ashamed about Chattering and whining They just want to tear it all down Ch We can stop it We can win it We can claim back the world we know If insanity prevails they’ll tear it all down V3 As the tunnel darkens And the light we see will fade They expect us to go quietly To the fetid bed they’ve made Well I hate to disappoint you I am going nowhere fast With my brothers and my sisters now A radical new wave blast Ch We can stop it We can win it We can claim back the world we know If insanity prevails they’ll tear it all down Bridge I got something important to say And no, we are not going away We pay attention to the games you play We are the howling dogs, and every dog has his day

Lyrics Dried-up roses Dried-up roses Dried-up roses in a dusty vase Gold and diamond Gold and diamond Gold and diamond I can’t stand to touch My heart won’t break again My heart won’t break again No one will ever break my heart again (2X) Far from others Far from others I’ll stay far from others from now on (2X) My heart won’t break again My heart won’t break again No one will ever break my heart again (2X) No one will ever break my heart again

Enniskillen Mart (Verse 1) I was born in a town by a lake Where city folk might go to when they want to escape The highlight each year was a show called The Mart Always so busy that it was hard to get parked (Verse 2) There were bulls and cows, hens and sheep Farmers in their best suits, driving diggers and jeeps There were stalls to visit, promoting careers Kids running so wild while dads they drank beers (Chorus) Sometimes I wish that I could be returned To those simple sunny summer days With so much still to learn Sometimes I wish that Time had not sped up It’s hard to beat long summer days Running round in dirt and muck (Verse 3) I grew up in a market town by a lake In a time of innocence untarnished by hate And the highlight each year was the Enniskillen Mart Beg your parents to let you stay out til dark (Verse 4) There were auctions and prize shows the way that the money goes Food stalls to buy from ’til the pocket money was gone It’s nice looking back at that time from the past And always regret these times cannot last (Chorus) Sometimes I wish that I could be returned To those simple sunny summer days With so much still to learn Sometimes I wish that Time had not sped up It’s hard to beat long summer days Running round in dirt and muck (Bridge) The last time I went there A girl with golden hair And I watched her disappear Into the embrace of the crowd (Chorus) Sometimes I wish that I could be returned To those simple sunny summer days With so much still to learn Sometimes I wish that Time had not sped up It’s hard to beat milkshakes, ice cream Running round in dirt and muck Written by Simon Wright (August 2023)

I Love You Still Even though we’re no longer together My love for you still lives And even if you’ve given up on chances Still, all to you I’d give Please try understand my reasons, why can't you see How much my heart still burns for you, missing you constantly Pre Yes, I’m a fool to fall at your mercy When you couldn’t care less But that’s what fools do best So again I must confess (that) CH I love you still Everything about you I can feel It’s real, it’s real I love you still Remember the night that we 1st kissed And how passionate it was I can still fee the magic of it And the joy from up above Give me this chance to prove My undying love to you Baby you are my everything You’re all I want to do BRIDGE Can’t you see Won’t you see You are my everything You are my everything CH I love you still Everything about you I can feel It’s real I love you still

Rogue Heart 03:57
V1 craving nights with wild reputations tempted by seductive flirtations got me into trouble took me down the wrong path but there’s no way in hell that I’m ever turning back…. C a rogue heart… and renegade thoughts make me an outlaw on the run a rogue heart… and renegade thoughts keep me chasing illicit love V2 seeking love in dangerous situations lusting for passionate explorations got me into problems on wrong sides of many tracks… but there’s no way in hell that I’m ever going back…. B some say I’m crazy some say I’m a fool but I’ll always let my rogue heart rule… especially when it comes to you…

Faith in Chance There’s a quote somewhere I think about A little too often When down and out Gambling is the only game There ever was Sure your skill could win a game Of chess or true romance But not knowing another’s heart and mind Means it all comes down to chance [chorus] Every time my mind is bent To the point of almost breaking Trying understand that life Is all but for the winner’s taking And winning is a happenstance more likely the more you play With all the faith I have in chance Please look my way You could say quite rightly It’s overwrought All too technical and dreamy stuff And it doesn't do a thing To know this all But the first time you Leaned in for a kiss With your eyes closed and out of focus Tell me that you weren’t taking a risk [chorus] [bridge] If gambling is the only game There ever was I would owe a debt of gratitude To all my chosen gods But I count on, goood fortune Having you by my side So leave your deobts behind you And get on board for the ride [chorus]

The winter of your life Verse You search for God in heaven A blanket when it’s cold. A bit of absolution Some comfort for your soul. You want to scream in anger Time’s played a trick on you. A magician’s sleight of hand has robbed you of your youth. Chorus Snowflakes are falling The wind cuts like a knife; life gets so much harder in the winter of your life. (2) Verse Your body aches you’re weary You’ve given up on life. Every day’s a new struggle Like trying to sleep at night. The sky looks grey this morning Is winter is on its way. You feel the changes coming For you it’s the judgement day. Chorus Snowflakes are falling The wind cuts like a knife; life gets so much harder in the winter of your life. Verse The coffee’s black as midnight It’s bitter but it’s sweet. A wake up call from the Lord Of promises to keep. This morning God spoke to you Old age is only time. There’s still much left to do In the winter of your life. Chorus Snowflakes are falling The wind cuts like a knife; life gets so much harder in the winter of your life.
