Track Name: No Clarity Without Vision
This noise, pollution, makes me move without volition
The silence, deafening, the void is a chasm of attrition
The is no clarity without vision
No space to breath a breath of despair my love
It goes on and on every minute of every day
Great, ok, then dismay
Remains a constant path perspective changes revealing malfeasance
No space to breath a breath of despair my love
Goes on and on every minute of every day
Great ok then dismay
Remains a constant path perspective changes
Time is a line in the distance with a misty terminus preceded by a rose
We’re in control at least we pretend exponential curve
Precious moments we desperately try to preserve
The is no clarity without vision
Jack in log on information at our finger tips
Too much to cope the lies obscure the truth
Infusion becomes an expurgation
The is no clarity without vision
No space to breath a breath of despair my love
No space to breath
To breath
Breath
Track Name: Evoke Your Tortoise Mind
Waking up, remembering the pill that keeps me sane
Knowing everything is duller now and not quite the same
A shame life gives, and then takes so much away
Leaving the only options to hope or to pray
It’s in there somewhere the key to finding your expression
Floating on the surface with little chance to make an impression
Evoke your tortoise mind and dream of another subject
The ideas will come bleeding through as they interconnect
Waking up, remembering the pill that keeps me sane
Knowing everything is duller now, not quite the same
A shame life gives and then takes so much more
Leaving the only options to beg or to crawl
It’s in there somewhere the key to finding your inner peace
Dive just below the surface and find the words to create a release
Evoke your tortoise mind and dream to misdirect
The ideas will come rushing through as they interconnect
Singing through a vale of shame Singing through the vale of doubt
Singing loud and clear, just trying not to shout
The music writes itself with words of your deep desire
The meaning comes from within, when you are on fire
Waking up with an idea that’s fading fast
Trying to capture these moments of the near or distant past
Or is it a future tale, one can never tell
Crack it open, reveal the meaning from within it’s shell
It’s in there somewhere the key to finding your expression
Floating on the surface with little chance to make an impression
Evoke your tortoise mind and dream of another subject
The ideas will come bleeding through as they interconnect
Singing through a vale of shame Singing through the vale of doubt
Singing loud and clear, just trying not to shout
The music writes itself with words of your deep desire
The meaning comes from within, when you are on fire
Waking up, remembering the pill that keeps me sane
Knowing everything is duller now and not quite the same
A shame life gives, and then takes so much away
Leaving the only options to beg or to pray
It’s in there somewhere the key to finding your inner peace
Dive just below the surface and find the words to create a release
Evoke your tortoise mind and dream of another subject
The ideas will come bleeding through as they interconnect
Track Name: Evolution
Evolution of our mind, evolution of our kind
Came out of the trees, through need and desire
What caused the leap, made this our goal to inspire
(did it seal our fate, a tragedy?)
Could it be the ability to communicate?
Or our social models? The need to congregate?
Did we sacrifice? Our option to be free?
(did it seal our fate, a tragedy?)
Who are we to enquire, the history of our creation?
We spend our lives just asking so many questions?
Conceptualising the past and all its Culminations
(did it seal our fate, a tragedy?)
We have followed (we have followed)
Millions gone before, Can we really change any more?
Its inconceivable these circumstances will reappear
(insignificant?)
(did it seal our fate, a tragedy?)
Evolution of our mind, evolution of our kind
Came out of the trees, was it need or desire?
What caused the leap, made this our goal to inspire
(did it seal our fate, a tragedy?)
(The arduous path)
(Gone before)
Arduous path we’ve followed this far,
Millions gone before, can we really change any more?
The knowledge that is running through our evolution
Cannot defeat basic matter distribution
Evolution of our mind, evolution of our kind
Came out of the trees, through need and desire
What caused the leap?
Track Name: Running Scared
Wouldn’t it be nice, if they all stopped and cared?
Instead of massing on our streets, just people running scared
It’s too late to change years of erosion, you needed to be whiter than white
An example to the rest
We’ve grown up and realised we’re all the same, no one is better
Is man inherently good, or does an example need to be understood?
Wouldn’t it be nice, if they all stopped and cared
Instead of massing on our streets, just kids running scared
There are different types of justice not just the truth
The respect you once commanded has now sadly departed
A brave few opened up their hearts and gave something back
You can’t use what you’ve cut in two
Vigilantes on the street, they fear control isn’t strong enough any more.
Wouldn’t it be nice, if they all stopped and cared?
Instead of massing on our streets, just people running scared
It’s too late to change years of erosion, you needed to be whiter than white
An example to the rest
You can’t fix this problem over night, this isn’t time to stand fight, you need to make peace
Not with water cannons and armed police.
The one-upmanship you used to gain power, better than them, but just the same
We’re oblivious to the bigger picture. Is Transparency really the answer
A brave few opened up their hearts and gave something back
You can’t use what you’ve cut in two
Vigilantes on the street, they fear control isn’t strong enough any more
A brave few opened up their hearts and gave something back
You can’t use what you’ve cut in two
Vigilantes on the street, they fear control isn’t strong enough any more
Track Name: Living on the Moon (Title Track)
We can’t wait to get our hands on the next greatest thing
Not satisfied with what we’ve got
Born too late to appreciate how far we’ve come
Looking back only a few years,
Things we take for granted now just didn’t exist
What we didn’t have, wasn’t missed
Who would have thought we’d have world right in the palm of our hands
And yet we live in ignorant bliss
Staring silently to bland abyss
How on earth did we come to this?
How long will it be until this society is behind the ranks again?
We’ve burnt bright and fast, defended our shores
Told that we were blessed
Just like all the rest
And yet we live in ignorant bliss
Staring silently to bland abyss
How on earth did we come to this?
We should be living on the moon by now
Just like we promised we would
A life that was built on a foundation of consumption and greed
Given a hunger, to feed
Now its time for give back what wasn’t really ours
Taken by deceit we shouldn’t be proud
We should be living on the moon by now
Just like we promised we would
Where’s my atomic flying car
Holidays to the stars, reasonably priced, not too far away
We should be living on the moon by now
Like we were promised we would.
Track Name: Fear of Change
Dreams of loosing you and all we cling to
Hollow fear, that our world might just disappear
I vowed never to return to that shell of mine
You are the guiding light, oh how you shine
Its all gone now, but you're still here
My constant love, save me from my fear
No consoling the fetal position of a desperate man
Hope lies with you, greet us love with your open hands
Back of my mind, that old feeling still deep inside
Dreams of loosing you and all we cling to
Hollow fear, that our world might disappear
I vowed never to return to that shell of mine
You're there guiding light, oh how you shine
Its all gone now, but you're still here
My constant love, save me from my fear
Its all gone now, but you're still here
My constant love, save me from my fear
The fear of change, everything stays the same
Deep from within comes the well of that old feeling
Desperate pleas for my sanity, going back to that place
Track Name: My Muse
You were there all along just waiting to be found
On fringes of my life you were always Around
I love you, how l love you
By chance we met, an almost failed attempt to get it together
Fate smiled on our rendevu and made it for forever
I need you
I never knew I needed anyone anything to keep me sane
If you had gone away, the world wouldn't be the same
You're still the one I'd choose, you are my muse
You're the only one who knows the real me
I love every moment that we shared together
I'll be with you forever, for all of eternity
After two weeks you came to stay, I hoped never to go away
I love you more and more every day
I for yearn you
I never knew I needed anyone anything to keep me sane
If you had gone away the world wouldn't be the same
You're still the one I'd choose, you are my muse
You're the only one who knows the real me
I love every moment that we share together
I'll be with you forever, for all of eternity
You were there all along just waiting to be found
On fringes of my life you were always around
I love you, how l love you
I never knew I needed anyone anything to keep me sane
If you had gone away the world wouldn't be the same
You're still the one I'd choose, you are my muse
You're the only one who knows the real me
I love every moment that we share together
I'll be with you forever, for all of eternity
Track Name: Love's Not What We Feel
I know love is love, but that’s not what we feel anymore
Let’s fly to the moon, it’s not rocket science you know
Lets sing into the night, fulfil our hearts delight
Lets book a weekend away, somewhere nice to stay
It’ll be like at the start, only better now we’re closer at heart
Lets run into the town, play until the sun goes down
Let’s go into the sea, it crowded but it’ll be just you and me
We don’t pretend to care, we’ll love each other anywhere
We act like kids, we’re madly in love, a gift from above
I know love is love, but that’s not what we feel anymore
Let’s fly to the moon, it’s not rocket science you know
Lets sing into the night, fulfil our hearts delight
Lets book a weekend away, somewhere nice to stay
It’ll be like at the start, only better now we’re closer at heart
What we share, so special it makes me cry
We share our lives and love each other with having to try
I thought I loved you, but now I know it was more than that
You own my heart, my soul, my all, so much more than before
Track Name: What They Call Normal
My mind is a crazy place to be
Sat in a chair, at the wall, is where I stare
Everything, so much significance
To the world I’m now showing indifference
My brain is firing on overtime
My mind's in sad deep decline
Surrounded by nonsense
Paraphernalia lying all around the place
Washing up in the sink is too much to face
My brain is firing on overtime
My mind's in sad deep decline
My mind is a crazy place to be
Sat in a chair, at the wall, is where I stare
Everything, so much significance
To the world I’m now showing indifference
My brain is firing on overtime
My mind's in deep decline
Now I’m normal again, I feel like I’m free but trapped
All my ideas fail to come to fruition
I need to write but lack the ammunition
My brain is firing on overtime
My mind's in sad deep decline
Track Name: Glimmer of Hope
You don't know me, I'm living in silence now
You don't know me, no
What I'm thinking, No no one does
Not even me now, Oh no
And it's all that I can do
Is to talk about my day
I'm somewhere else
not connected to the the world, to you , my life, our love, Today
You've don't love me, oh no
You don't even like me, I don't like myself
How can I be loved, When I don't feel at all
Oh no, feel at all
And it's all that I can do
Smile and happy for a while
I'm deep inside my shell from you
Our love, I need to find a way out today
You don't know me, We're living in silence now
You don't know me, oh no
What I'm thinking, no one does
Not even me now, Oh no
And it's all that I can do
Is smile and be happy for just a while
I'm deep within my shell I need a way out
To you, to the world, to my life
You do love me, My barrier you can't get past
You know me, better than I realise
You care what I'm thinking, I'm just blind to your efforts
You're trying to get me, get me back to you today
And it's all that you can do
Is support me in my need
I'm deep within my shell you are the way out
To my life, our love, today.
Track Name: You Know You Love Me
You know you love me and I love you, that much is true
One look into my eyes and you will see, How much you mean to me
The world could stop. My love goes on
The stars could fall from the sky. My love shines bright
You know you loves me and I loves you, that much is true
Just look into my eyes. For the whole world to see. Just you and me
All the sounds in the world could hush. My love would sing
Rivers and streams run dry. My love still flows
You know you love me and I love you, that much is true
One look into my eyes and you will see. How much you mean to me
The world could stop. My love goes on
The stars could fall from the sky. My love shines bright
You know you love me and I love you, that much is true
look into my eyes. For the whole world to see. Just you and me
All the sounds in the world could hush. My love would sing
Rivers and streams run dry. My love still flows
You know you love me and I love you, that much is true
One look into my eyes and you will see. How much you mean to me
