Dark Heart
Inside you’re dead alive. Drinking to numb your pain. Deceitful and lying. Playing on a broken string. Father of tears, dreams of lust and fame. I don’t mind that we’d meet at the bottle. But a man like you can never change. Dark heart where are you going? Do you believe in love? No one can save your dark heart. Dark heart where are you going? Do you believe in love?
Dark heart! You asked for all my secrets. Smiled as you kissed my breast. Told me everything would be okay. I’ve tried to forget the rest. To sabotage, and to leave me thin. I don’t mind that my spring turned to autumn. But a man like you can only sin. Dark heart where are you going? Do you believe in love? No one can save your dark heart. Dark heart where are you going? Do you believe in love? Building your castles of broken beer bottles. Wife-beater t-shirts and rock and roll battles. Bruises and failures in your skeleton closet. You could have had all of me, did you even want it? Did you know how much it hurt me? When you disappeared that night. Was a short time but I fell for you. You made everything feel right. My loneliness and grief, oh it made me weak.
I don’t mind that we fell to the bottom.
But a man like you can never win. Dark heart where are you going, do you believe in love? No one can save your dark heart. Dark heart where are you going? Do you believe in love? No one can save you, dark heart!
No can save you.
No one can save you.
No one can save you.
No one can save you.
Dark heart where are you going, do you believe in love?
No one can save your dark heart.
Dark heart where are you going?
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in love, dark heart?
Honey Pie
Let’s get right down to it. She got a fancy walk. She got a way of looking at you, bring your heart to stop.
Then she’ll give you life again, with her sugar smile.
Walk with her down to the corner, talk with her a while.
She like a little cherub, you know she like to dance.
She’ll hug you close in her chubby arms, and hold her buddha stance.
She got everyone laughing, you know she like to play.
Walk with her down to the ocean, watch her in the waves.
She’s listening to everything you say.
Honey pie, don’t you cry.
Little golden girl.
Honey pie, so alive.
In this tired world.
Honey pie, don’t you cry.
I will be home soon.
Honey pie, so alive.
Born under a silver moon.
No one need to wake her.
She’s up everyday.
Before the sun can shake itself, and bring us a new way.
She will keep you up all night. You know she like to sing.
Walk with her down to the river, hold the light she brings.
Climbin’ tiny mountains, she play a xylophone.
She bringing love to everyone, inside her happy home.
She got a way of learning, no matter night or day.
Walk with her down to the garden, quietly she prays.
She’s listening to everything you say.
Honey pie, don’t you cry.
Little golden girl.
Honey pie, so alive.
In this tired world.
Honey pie, don’t you cry.
I will be home soon.
Honey pie, so alive.
Born under a silver moon.
In the world of dreams, you are one of the shakers,
the doers, the game changers too. And you bring this planet back to it's roots,
for you know just what to do.
Let’s all heed her story. She got a giving way. For her you’d give up everything and walk into the fray. Warrior of righteousness, child of love and light. Walk with her out in the starlight, do not fear the night. Walk with her out in the moonglow, no need to cry tonight.
Honey pie, don’t you cry, little golden girl. Honey pie, so alive, in this tired world. Honey pie, don’t you cry, I will be home soon. Honey pie, so alive. Born under a silver moon. In the world of dreams I listen to you, and hear your deep concern, about a planet of mice not men, who hide among their words. In the world of dreams I ease your fears and tuck you in at night. I show you treasures from my old navy chest, seashells, buttons and the like. In the world of dreams you sleep to songs that your mother softly sings. While you lay in your bed all snug as a bug, and dream of angel wings. In the world of dreams, you are the one, who can save us, and bring us back to, LOVE.
Praying kind
God please hear me. Slow my mind, and forgive my sins. With these chains I will never run. So please, free me from my temptations. And bring me back home. God I am praying. Please bring me back home. I never was the praying kind. But lord I have cheated and lord I have lied. And I am falling apart, won’t you ease my bad dreams. Lord, I need you to show me. And give me peace. Put your hands on me. Show me a sign. Do I deserve your love and this beautiful life? I ask myself these questions, day and night. Please bring me back home. Lord I am praying. Please bring me back home. ‘Cause I never was the praying kind. But lord I have cheated, and lord I have lied. And I am falling apart, won’t you ease my bad dreams. Lord I need you to show me, and give me peace. I never was the praying kind. But lord I have cheated and lord I have lied. And I am falling apart, won’t you ease my bad dreams. Lord I need you to show me, and give me peace.
I never was the praying kind.
But lord I have cheated, and lord I have lied.
And I am falling apart, won't you ease my bad dreams.
Lord I need you to show me, and give me peace.
The world could change
Put your arms around me, so we cannot be seen. They are coming for us, and the night is growing cold. Put your arms around me. This could be the end. The world had changed, my darling. Put your arms around me. Hold your head up high, ’til it touches the sky. These old men should be ashamed. But we’ll show them when we die. We can never be silenced. Hold your head so high! The world has changed, my darling. Hold your head up high! I am just a little girl, doing everything I can. He is just a small boy, living in this world of man. Together we will walk, along the golden path, to where it’s very dark, in this dangerous new land. And secretly we light a candle whose tiny flame must never waver. A flame to disable their plans! Shine on a light on thee! Or we’ll never get free! Shine a light on thee! They’ll take everything we have. Shine a light on thee. The end is drawing near. The world could change, my darling. Shine a light on thee! I am just a little girl, doing everything I can. He is just a small boy, living in this world of man. Together we will walk, along the golden path, to where it’s very dark, in this dangerous new land. And secretly we light a candle whose tiny flame must never waver. A flame to disable their plans.
Man behind the curtain
All you hungry people living in your plastic towns.
Working hard for survival, no time to make a sound.
Walking soft on priveliged feet, smiling through broken teeth.
Only the strong they will survive, and to him you are the meek.
Man behind the curtain is cooking something for you.
And he knows that you’ll swallow before you chew.
His cake is so sweet, it’s made from terror and lies.
Open your mouth wide and close your eyes,
so you can swallow it down.
All the bloodstained money, in this dying world.
Is locked up in a golden cage, with his wind up bird.
Who cannot sing, would rather read, the tabloids of the week.
That say only the strong they will survive, and to him you are the meek.
Man behind the curtain is cooking something for you.
And he’s sure that you’ll swallow before you chew.
His cake is so sweet, it’s made from terror and lies.
Open your mouth wide and close your eyes,
so you can swallow it down.
Drink from his bottle of fear.
Feel it run over your tongue.
And don’t forget to say thank you sir.
When your last supper is done.
Roasting in his fire, gourging on your greed.
Getting fat on your selfishness.
You are what you eat.
Losing faith in loneliness.
So drunk on your knees.
That you believe.
This is only a dream.
This is not a dream!
Now as the night grows near, all can smell the fear.
He is coming for your children next with his bottle of poison tears.
Will you stand and light a torch, or will you be condemned?
To a lifetime of slavery in this cold and bitter end!
Man behind the curtain is cooking, something for you.
And he hopes that you’ll swallow before you chew!
His cake is so sweet, it’s made from terror and lies.
Open your mouth now and close your eyes,
so you can swallow it down.
Drink from his bottle of shame.
Feel it run over your tongue.
And don’t forget to say thank you sir!
When your last supper has come.
His cake is so sweet.
Brother
Sunrise speak to me, show me the day. I’ve been travelling this lonely road. Long hair drifting through my broken doorway. Faded lightning skull on your arm. I’ve seen you fire. It’s burning brighter. Please, won’t you stay. Stay a little longer, with me. I’ve got questions need answering. I’m getting older but I’m waiting patiently. Won’t you play a song for me brother, before you go. I’d seen you before at a jam down the street. I know you sure can play your guitar. You drank too much wine, and you told me you loved me. The cops found you later on that old rooftop. I’ve seen your fire. It never tires. Please won’t you stay. Stay a little longer with me I’ve got questions need answering. I’m getting older but I’m waiting patiently. Won’t you play a song for me brother, before you go. I heard the news lastnight that you were gone. I stayed up all night and sang our songs. Brother Henry, can you forgive me? I wasn’t there when you needed me, most. I've seen your fire. It’s burning brighter. Won’t you stay. Stay a little longer, with me. I’ve got questions need answering. We’re getting older but I’m waiting patiently. Won’t you play a song for me, brother, before you go. Before you go.
Watch what you're doing man
Maybe if you do what you’re told,
you won’t have to answer, to those sitting out in the cold.
Still God someday is gonna ask ya,
did you bear false witness to your neighbour?
And when the table was turned.
Did you stand in your own power?
Or did you walk away?
Watch what you’re doing, man!
Think before you say, or it could come back to bite you someday.
I can see where you’re going.
You're so afraid of the night.
Don’t give up on your freedom.
You all know wrong from right.
I can see why you’re struggling.
I can see why you’re afraid.
Without a little courage,
will the children see a better day?
Watch what you’re doing, man!
Think before you say, or it will come back to bite you someday.
Is it so hard for you, to look outside the box?
All I hear is angry talk.
Trapped in your emotions, drowning in the news.
Only you have the power.
You can always choose!
Are you so tired, that you can’t see the end?
I will be there to help you, my friend.
Stand up in your courage, you don’t have to lose.
You still have the power, but you gotta choose.
You still have the power, even when you got the blues!
You still have the power!
But you gotta choose!
Watch what you’re doing, man!
Think before you say! Or it could come back to bite you someday.
I said, watch what you’re doing, man!
I said, think before you say.
Or it could come back to bite you someday.
One of these days.
Watch what you’re doing, man!
Think before you say.
Or it will come back, to bite you.
The truth song
There is power in the letting go. Can you see the writing on the wall? Some would lose it all just to be told, told what to do. There is fear in the letting go because for so long,
we’ve held on too tight to nothing. Yeah.
What a wondrous time to be alive.
It's all coming down.
Every villain, every house of cards.
Crumbles to the ground!
Together we will sing the truth song.
There is a courage in the letting go, realising just how far we’ve come. No chain of command, only us alone.
In solidarity. Worshipping in the light of God. And loving eachother, no matter what, our difference.
Oh. What a wondrous time to be alive. It's all coming down. Every villain, every house of cards. Crumblin’ to the ground! Together we will sing the truth song. Oh yeah! Won’t you tell me what to do. I dont want to think for myself this time, no. Wont you tell me what to do, and make more of these invisible lines. Won’t you tell me what to do. I don’t want to think for myself, this time, no. Won’t you tell me, what to do. Tell me when I can, live my life again!
What a wondrous time to be alive. It's all coming down. Every villain, every house of cards. Crumbles to the ground! What a wondrous time to be alive. It's all coming down! Every villain, every house of cards. Crumblin’ to the ground!
Together we will sing the truth song! Together we will sing the truth song. Together, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Baby bird
Baby bird, I’m sorry I couldn’t help you fly. Baby bird, I sometimes cry. Baby bird, it never was a lie. You were always mine. Always.
Baby bird, how’s it up there in the sky? Baby bird, I’ll see you when it’s my time. Baby bird, please know that I tried. And I’ll always be, your mama. When I’m feeling low. I will hold you close. Keep you warm and safe. In this troubled place.
I love you, oh and I miss you. Please don’t forget me, no matter where you are. Know that I needed you, please and forgive me. God now please hear me, I was too young, to know. Baby bird, are you cosy in your nest. Baby bird, I knew you would be different. Baby bird, I think of you all the time. You were always mine. Mine.
Baby bird, fly high and don’t look back. Baby bird, sometimes I dress in black. Ooh, and I dream of your little fuzzy hat. Knit by your grandma, just for you.
When I’m feeling low. I will hold you close. Keep you warm and safe. In this troubled place.
I love you, oh and I miss you. Please don’t forget me, no matter where you are. Know that I needed you, please and forgive me. God now please hear me, I was too young, to know.
When I’m feeling low. I will hold you close. Keep you warm and safe. In this troubled place.
I love you, oh and I miss you. Please don’t forget me, no matter where you are. Know that I needed you, please and forgive me. God now please hear me, I was too young.
I love you, oh and I miss you.
Please don’t forget me. No matter where you are.
Know that I needed you. Please and forgive me.
God now please hear me, I was too young, to know.
Jasmine
She’s running and she don’t know where. She’s running and she just don’t care how.
She’s running and she’ll keep on trying.
Until she break this whole place down.
She’s running up and down the walls.
She’s running and she’ll never fall.
She’s running and she’s getting higher.
She’s running cause she hears the call.
Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she’ll never fall!
Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she’ll never fall!
She’s running all round and round.
She’s running nothing brings her down.
She’s running and she’ll keep on screaming.
Until she wakes the whole damn town.
She’s running up and down the mountains.
She’s running and she’s never counting.
She’s running and she’s getting faster.
She’s running, and she ain’t coming last now.
Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she’ll never fall!
Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she”ll never fall!
No need to be afraid, I’ve got you in my sights.
No need for you to complain, I’ll care for you tonight.
Little girl, black and white pearl. Dream of night, I’ll hold you tight.
No need to, be alone, ‘cause you’re always safe, in my home!
She’s running and she don’t know where.
She’s running and she just don’t care how.
She’s running and she’ll keep on trying.
Until she break this whole place down.
She’s running up and down the walls.
She’s running and she’ll never fall.
She’s running and she’s getting higher.
She’s running cause she hears the call!
Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she’ll never fall! Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she’ll never fall! Jasmine! Don’t care at all, she’ll never fall, she’ll never fall! Jasmine! Don’t care at all, ’cause life is a ball, life is a ball!
Come on Jasmine, haha, let’s run!
We're all the same
Life it turns in circles, showing us round and round, who we are.
Every person we meet, a reflection, of where we were, and where we are now.
Every heartbeat a moment to remember that we’re still alive.
And that no matter how scared we feel sometimes, we just gotta keep on trying, yeah.
I’ve got stories I could tell you, of heartache, fear and pain.
But you’ve got stories just like mine, in the end we’re all the same.
We fight to smile and to survive, to live and love and be.
Life ain’t worth living if we can’t love ourselves, enough to set our demons free.
I got no time for playing games, I got no time for pain.
Getting too old for unanswered questions; crying in the rain.
I’m a good woman, got my music, that’ll do me just fine.
I don’t need no pills, or potions, lies or tears, men or cheap wine, no!
Don’t think I don’t love you, if I need to walk away.
I’m only stumbling down my own crooked path,
but I’ll see you again someday.
'Cause life ain’t worth a shit if you can’t, look fear in the eyes.
And say your peace, and speak your mind, and learn again to try.
I’ve got stories I could tell you, of heartache, fear and pain.
But you’ve got stories just like mine, in the end we’re all the same.
We fight to smile, and to survive, to live and love and be.
Life ain’t worth living if we can’t love ourselves,
enough to set our demons free!
Looking from the outside, we sure seem different.
But I see through you, can you see through me?
Made from the same cloth, we are fragments of love and light. Time we come together and face the night.
To love again and face our fears, feels impossible these days.
Especially when we’ve been hurt before, in so many hateful ways.
‘Cause life ain’t worth a shit, if we can’t look fear in the eyes.
And say your peace and speak your mind, and learn again to try.
I got stories I can tell you of heartache, fear and pain.
But you’ve got stories just like mine. In the end we’re all the same.
We fight to smile and to survive, to live and love and be.
Life ain’t worth living if we can’t love ourselves,
enough to set our demons free.
I got stories I could tell you of heartache, fear and pain.
But you’ve got stories just like mine, in the end we’re all, the same.
Shine brightly To shine brightly in the face of despair. To shine brightly without any care. To shine brightly like a firefly at night. To shine brightly as a bird's wing in flight. To shine brightly among the crashing waves. To shine brightly in pain or enraged. To shine brightly and dance among the stars. To shine brightly in a silent war. To shine brightly as a child holding hands. To shine brightly with no concern of man. To shine brightly and be reborn again. To shine brightly to honor a true friend. To shine brightly like a golden prayer. To shine brightly when life feels unfair. To shine brightly feeling from the heart. To shine brightly when we’re apart. To shine brightly embracing every change. To shine brightly in our older age. To shine brightly as we transcend. To shine brightly even in our end.
