Shooting Star
Through stealthful deceit I entered Your life
Until guards at the gate cast me away
Turned all around made me come back down again
But hope springs eternal to get it all right
The futures eternal, unlimited chances
You've granted to me to learn to be your friend
Saw five shooting stars out tonight
Chicken Little was possibly right
The sky is falling and by tomorrow
The night may be dark and the man in the moon
Will be waning away out of fright
A pretension to be somebody special
But You saw through my game, I retreated in shame
And cowered in a maze of shadow
But energy summons me to stand and to fight
Refusing to break, unlimited kindness
Is showing that You want my love to bloom and grow
Dreaming I was a shooting star
Shone bright in the night sky from afar
But no sooner than I had lit up the whole sky
Went out like a light all bark and no bite
Like a water-logged Cuban cigar
Until guards at the gate cast me away
Turned all around made me come back down again
But hope springs eternal to get it all right
The futures eternal, unlimited chances
You've granted to me to learn to be your friend
Saw five shooting stars out tonight
Chicken Little was possibly right
The sky is falling and by tomorrow
The night may be dark and the man in the moon
Will be waning away out of fright
A pretension to be somebody special
But You saw through my game, I retreated in shame
And cowered in a maze of shadow
But energy summons me to stand and to fight
Refusing to break, unlimited kindness
Is showing that You want my love to bloom and grow
Dreaming I was a shooting star
Shone bright in the night sky from afar
But no sooner than I had lit up the whole sky
Went out like a light all bark and no bite
Like a water-logged Cuban cigar
The Monsoon Blues
Storm clouds over mountains are coming into view
Reflecting colors of a monsoon hue
Not a day goes by when I don't think of you
I've got the long time far away separation blues
Walking on the beach I see endless grains of sand
Reflects to my thinking of many many men
Scattered through the world all under Your command
We are the long time far away separation band
I want to go back to where I used to stay
And the land where we used to play
And the one with the enchanting face
I've drifted so far away, I've drifted so far away
Shadow reflections I'm seeing through the haze
A glimpse of Your love is manifest always
But then the curtain comes down upon that play
It's been a long time far away separation day
A tiny boy was born, into a man he grew
From out of a fire a tiny spark flew
The spark was me, the fire You
I've got those long time far away separation blues
I've got those long time far away separation blues
Reflecting colors of a monsoon hue
Not a day goes by when I don't think of you
I've got the long time far away separation blues
Walking on the beach I see endless grains of sand
Reflects to my thinking of many many men
Scattered through the world all under Your command
We are the long time far away separation band
I want to go back to where I used to stay
And the land where we used to play
And the one with the enchanting face
I've drifted so far away, I've drifted so far away
Shadow reflections I'm seeing through the haze
A glimpse of Your love is manifest always
But then the curtain comes down upon that play
It's been a long time far away separation day
A tiny boy was born, into a man he grew
From out of a fire a tiny spark flew
The spark was me, the fire You
I've got those long time far away separation blues
I've got those long time far away separation blues
Looking For SOmething
I'm over it, took time to fit
The pieces together, to picture the scene
If you know what I mean
I've grown tired, of shining while wired
For sound and sight, try as I may try as I might
I gave up the fight
Was looking for something inside of me
Was looking for something that I could be
Was looking for somewhere around the world
Was looking for someone in the shape of a girl
I found something else out there
Found something everywhere
Found plenty of it inside of me to share
I'm under fire, a loose canon for hire
So higher I went till the ammo was all spent
And now I repent
Was looking for something in every smoke
Was looking for something in every toke
Was looking for someone to give me a pill
Was looking for something to give me a thrill
I found something else out there
Found something everywhere
Found plenty of it inside of me to share
The pieces together, to picture the scene
If you know what I mean
I've grown tired, of shining while wired
For sound and sight, try as I may try as I might
I gave up the fight
Was looking for something inside of me
Was looking for something that I could be
Was looking for somewhere around the world
Was looking for someone in the shape of a girl
I found something else out there
Found something everywhere
Found plenty of it inside of me to share
I'm under fire, a loose canon for hire
So higher I went till the ammo was all spent
And now I repent
Was looking for something in every smoke
Was looking for something in every toke
Was looking for someone to give me a pill
Was looking for something to give me a thrill
I found something else out there
Found something everywhere
Found plenty of it inside of me to share
Not Alone Anymore
You always had to stay on till the very end
Every time you were down you bounced right up again
That was before the last time that you fell
Is this your brave new world
Or is this a living Hell
You always had to have the last roll of the dice
Wasn't home time till the sun had hurt your eyes
Then the lights went out and you were all alone
Wandering in the dark
Just searching for a home
Then a light went on in your head now
Saw somebody else who was there now
And you know now, you know you're not alone anymore
You know now, know you're not alone anymore
not alone anymore, not alone anymore
You always had to fly the closest to the sun
Before you crawled you walked, before you walked you run
Then you burnt your wings and had to come back down
And looking to the stars
While wandering on the ground
You blazed a trail ahead of the whole pack
Caution failed to ever hold you back
Then the doors were closed unwelcome around here
Searching for a sign to make it become clear
Then a light went on in your head now
Saw somebody else who was there now
And you know now , you know you're not alone anymore
You know now, you know you're not alone anymore
not alone anymore, not alone anymore
So you have made another plan
And been invited to a different land
Completely other way to be
To live eternally free
Not alone anymore not alone anymore
Every time you were down you bounced right up again
That was before the last time that you fell
Is this your brave new world
Or is this a living Hell
You always had to have the last roll of the dice
Wasn't home time till the sun had hurt your eyes
Then the lights went out and you were all alone
Wandering in the dark
Just searching for a home
Then a light went on in your head now
Saw somebody else who was there now
And you know now, you know you're not alone anymore
You know now, know you're not alone anymore
not alone anymore, not alone anymore
You always had to fly the closest to the sun
Before you crawled you walked, before you walked you run
Then you burnt your wings and had to come back down
And looking to the stars
While wandering on the ground
You blazed a trail ahead of the whole pack
Caution failed to ever hold you back
Then the doors were closed unwelcome around here
Searching for a sign to make it become clear
Then a light went on in your head now
Saw somebody else who was there now
And you know now , you know you're not alone anymore
You know now, you know you're not alone anymore
not alone anymore, not alone anymore
So you have made another plan
And been invited to a different land
Completely other way to be
To live eternally free
Not alone anymore not alone anymore
Washed Up
Oh will You ever let us in
Did we lose when we should win
Did we sink when we should swim
Will You ever let us in
Oh will we ever see that place
Or disappear without a trace
Losing time and losing face
Will we ever see that place
Seems like our life is overwrought
Oversold and overbought
When I thought I had you caught
I lost my footing overboard
And I was washed up on the shore
Washed up on the shore
Oh will we ever go back home
Or stay destined here to roam
Like a flapping bag of bones
Will we ever go back home
Oh will we ever hitch a ride
Or keep drifting with the tide
Do we seek or do we hide
Will we ever hitch a ride
Seems like my life was overcooked
I should have bought when I just looked
Then you put me to the sword
I lost my footing overboard
And I was washed up on the shore
Washed up on the shore
Seems like my life was overwrought
Oversold and overbought
When I thought I had you caught
I lost my footing overboard
But then you picked me up once more
Picked me up once more for sure
Did we lose when we should win
Did we sink when we should swim
Will You ever let us in
Oh will we ever see that place
Or disappear without a trace
Losing time and losing face
Will we ever see that place
Seems like our life is overwrought
Oversold and overbought
When I thought I had you caught
I lost my footing overboard
And I was washed up on the shore
Washed up on the shore
Oh will we ever go back home
Or stay destined here to roam
Like a flapping bag of bones
Will we ever go back home
Oh will we ever hitch a ride
Or keep drifting with the tide
Do we seek or do we hide
Will we ever hitch a ride
Seems like my life was overcooked
I should have bought when I just looked
Then you put me to the sword
I lost my footing overboard
And I was washed up on the shore
Washed up on the shore
Seems like my life was overwrought
Oversold and overbought
When I thought I had you caught
I lost my footing overboard
But then you picked me up once more
Picked me up once more for sure
On the Run
On the run from everyone
Set my sights unto the sun
Struggling headlong down the wrong track
No turning back
Over hill and over dale
I'm over everyone for sale
Burrows his head down deep in the sand
The modern man
There's a hungry child inside his home
His fathers gone, his mother soldiers on
There's a hungry soul inside my heart
Better feed it now before I fall apart
On the run from every one
Set my sights unto the sun
Struggling headlong down the wrong track
No turning back
Set my sights unto the sun
Struggling headlong down the wrong track
No turning back
Over hill and over dale
I'm over everyone for sale
Burrows his head down deep in the sand
The modern man
There's a hungry child inside his home
His fathers gone, his mother soldiers on
There's a hungry soul inside my heart
Better feed it now before I fall apart
On the run from every one
Set my sights unto the sun
Struggling headlong down the wrong track
No turning back
