The Razor's Edge
03:12

Angels who I learned to trust
Told me you were dangerous
Well, long ago I learned
Those are the best kind of strangers
You go to the darkest side
Now I’m with you for the ride
I cannot help it if I’ve got
A real taste for danger
(Chorus 1)
I walk the window ledge
Fifty stories up
I’m on the razor’s edge
I know that I’ll get cut
I think I can take it
But one day I won’t make it
Nails like claws that carve my flesh
Smell of brimstone on your breath
I just can’t get enough
I want to do this forever
(Repeat Chorus 1)
(Bridge)
Now I’m bleeding out
Bleeding out
I have never felt better
And when they ask me, “How?”
I’ll say, “I let her”
I’ll say, “I let her”
(Final Chorus)
I fell right off the ledge
Fifty stories down
I hit the razor’s edge
My blood stained the ground
Yeah, I couldn’t take it
But I would not change a single moment

GAZE INTO THE FIRE
Verse 1
Her father was a preacher man
His mother was a witch
That sort of stuff is dynamite
Cos TNT and love don't mix
He was just a city boy
She lived way down the tracks
But chemistry it played it's part
In finding ways to counteract
Chorus
Gaze into the fire
Blessed be the name
Feel the heat arising
Tender is the flame
Gaze into the fire
Blessed is the name
Feel the heat arising
In the carnal game
Verse 2
Don't get superstitious
Don't take the name in vain
The crucible becomes the holy cross
And all is perfect once again
For she don't like religion
And he's not much into spells
Their Ma and Pa's cannot approve
This parallax of wishing wells
Chorus
Gaze into the fire
Blessed be the name
Feel the heat arising
Tender is the flame
Gaze into the fire
Blessed is the name
Feel the heat arising
In the carnal game
Bridge
Santeria, algebra
Holy scriptures and Shangri-la
Voodoo, praying, this and that
Break the bread, black the hat
Good and evil find a way
To bridge the void, between night and day

Echoes
03:31
|
|||
|
doing nothing
being nobody
the joy
of existence
unity of unity
manifest the mission
no dividing
the division
sometimes the echo
precedes the shout
sometimes it comes
by the opposite route
we did not
ignite this flame
the war was here
before we came
echoes
of history unwritten
the living
speaking to the unborn
the unborn
speaking to the dead
echoes
of life, echoes of life
and now we are tied
to another war
echoes of which
have come before
but when the word
ties us to another
previous echoes
are torn asunder

Verse
We try, to stay out of the darkness
Sometimes we win the fight
Sometimes we lose
Sometime we simply light the fuse
All that you have ever known
All of the things that were bred in the bone
Flying away now,
Free from sight
Disappearing into the night
Pre
All that you know now
All that you say
Stand and watch it fly away
Into the night
Into the dark
Take me back to the very start
Chorus
I’ll take you home
Time and again
And I always find you my friend
No you're not alone
Though it seems that way
You have my loving every day (2)
V2
You and I, we’re battling the darkness
Life on the edge of town, sometimes it’s hard
We learn to live with the battle scars
Knowing what I’ve never known
All of the things that were bred in my bones
Are flying away now,
Free from sight
Disappearing into the night
Pre
All that you know now
All that you say
Stand and watch it fly away
Into the night
Into the dark
Take me back to the very start
Chorus
I’ll take you home
Time and again
And I always find you my friend
No you're not alone
Though it seems that way
You have my loving every day (2)

Into the Night

V1
sweet memories drifting on moon beams
shooting stars like awakening new dreams
into my heart stirring possibilities
and visions of what just might be…
V2
sensual visions floating up higher
lightning bolts that set me on fire
sparkling possibilities
fuelling new sensations in me
C
into the night
you run
you wake me..(wake me)
into the night
you run…
into the night
you come
you take me…(take me)
into the night
you come…
B
I invite you in
you take me deeply
I welcome your lead
and let go completely
then wake from the dream
still longing and aching….
longing and aching….
for you
C
into the night
you run
you wake me..(wake me)
into the night
you run…
into the night
you come
you take me…(take me)
into the night
you come…
OUTRO (fade out)
wake me
take me
into the night
into the night again
wake me
take me
into the night
into the night again

The Abyss
03:57
|
|||
|
Verse 1
Head pounding
I'm losing ground
Slip-sliding into hell
Imagined memories
Had taken on life
I'm now under death's spell
Verse 2
I can't think
I'm on the brink
I am spinning into oblivion
Does anybody care
About my despair
Don't know if I will live again
Chorus
It's dark-I can't see!
Why is this happening to me?
Is it self-inflicted?
So dark, so wicked
It's the kiss of death
The abyss!
Verse 3
Help me to find my way
Help me out of hell
Lend me a hand and help me stand
Hope alive and well
Verse 4
2
I can't think
I'm on the brink
I’m standing on the edge
Does anybody care
About my despair
As I drift over the ledge
Bridge
I'm in the midnight of black
Is there any way back? (2)
Repeat chorus

Curated Life

Curated Life
When all that you ever do
Is worry about how you look
You are not living a life at all
As if that were all that it ever took
“How do others see me?
Don’t matter if it’s not true.
I live a curated life.
It’s what I am addicted to”
Meanwhile it all passes you by
On the other side of the lens
If you just care about what is thought
By an army of “online” friends
Curated life
And the fear of missing out
Nothing that you see is real
Of that there can be no doubt
Oh what a wasted life
Controlled to a fine degree
If you only really care
About what other people get to see
Meanwhile time marches on and leaves you way behind
There is one thing you need to bear in mind
Don’t live a curated life
Live a real life

No Warning Calls

No Warning Calls
Seemed like lightning
Out of the blue
Seemed I was struck
When I met you
Seemed like thunder
Much too loud
Seemed like a storm
Right out of a cloud
Chorus
You came raging
With floods and squalls
Brought cyclones
With no warning calls
You came like a twister
Tore me apart
Now all that is left
Is my raw shattered heart
Bridge
Caught in a whirlwind
That lifted me high
Only to drop me
From the rolling black sky
Seemed like a downpour
That washed me out
Seemed like a sharp wind
That tossed me about
Seemed like a torrent
Of saturation
Seemed like it’s building
To another formation

Heart Tattoo
03:48
|
|||
|
Always find my way back to you
Fall in love again, restore that tattoo on my heart
If you want to play those games
Tear us on up, tear us apart
There’s only me and there’s only you
A fatal attraction no matter what we do
Travelling together, time after time
A river to cross a mountain to climb
Your love like tattoo etched on heart
From time to time it fades but it never departs (2)
I return to the scene of the crime
Reliving those moments time after time
Did I kill the love, or did I kill you
I can’t wrk it out no matter what I do
But here you come again, riding over the waves
And love overcomes as it flies from the grave
You will always be my heart tattoo
Always and forever, I always have you

Graffiti On My Heart
04:02
|

|
You said that you, would help create
New cityscape
And reshape it all
You said that you, would hold on to me
Just wait and see
T hat was not your call
Chorus
I got slashes
Underground gashes
Fire and ashes
Graffiti on my heart
I got scrawls
On my walls
And all because
There's graffiti on my heart
Bridge
Don't need to be redone
I'm fine just like I am
You still think I care
But I don't give a damn
You said I had to be all in
Well you were wrong again
I was out the door
You said that I would crack
That I’d come crawlin' back
But I do that won't anymore
Repeat chorus

Breathing deep
Waiting on you
Don’t you know
Chorus
It’s all about time
V1
When you walk away
I just want to say stay a while
It happens every time
But I keep it inside
I know you have to go
PC
But I need you here
And I think you forget
Life moves fast
C
It’s all about time
V2
There’s no paradise
Just the promise of real life
Living it everyday
But we can’t run away
I know you want to go
I hope you will
Bridge
Stay a while, and fight for us
It’s never too late
I just want some more time, with you
PC
Stay a while, and fight for us
It’s never too late
Chorus
It’s all about time
PC
And I need you here
I think you forget
Life moves fast
Chorus
It’s all about time
PC
Seconds minutes hours
Moving past us we can’t stop it
And we can’t turn back
Chorus
It’s all about time
