Prologue 03:32
Prologue I had a dream once A dream of hope of love of happiness Every time I closed my eyes I saw her Every time I allowed my thoughts to wander I thought of her There was a time when I could pick up my six string and play Play for hours the notes the melodies they would just come as if from the heavens There was once a hero of mine A man who passed away many years before I was born but His music It moved and inspired me beyond anything in the world and it has often been said If you listen to the wind you could still hear him play But the wind died down The lights went out And she was gone but my love for her was not The last flame of the candle flickered and died no matter how much I tried to hold it When I close my eyes I can still see her but her it is not It is another speaking words through her When I allow my thoughts to wander once more I think of her But now all I feel is pain Because there is no love left in her for me The flame has long since burned for the last time There is no longer...a candle in the night

The Prisoner 04:40
The Prisoner A locked door to your light Extinguished by a young life The one you’re supposed to love Taken by some young blood To cry and to die, Escape life on the inside A twisted compromise In evil public eyes Who gave you the power to seal someone’s fate Who made you judge of human life You send a man down for what he has done Putting his fate to the knife Summon a jury who don’t understand Cut a deal for a guilty plea So it follows him round for the rest of his days Cos no one was willing to see Eternity in hell Is life inside this cell Time will linger on After life has gone On the inside each day’s like a week Each month another year Telling the day by the hand of a watch Trying to hold back the tears A letter written by your shaking hand To be read by candle light The evil and horror of what you have done Brings tears to her eyes in the night Eternity in hell Is life inside this cell Time will linger on After life has gone Out on the outside you think to yourself The sentence is over and done But your mind is still twisted your conscience still sick This hell has only begun Each nightmare you have every way that you turn You see the past written in stone How will it be when you tell the world Are you free or dying alone Eternity in hell Is life inside this cell Time will linger on After life has gone

Heart’s Doin’ Time You're a wicked bitch they way you pull her strings I confided in you every single thing Told of my addiction your secret smile Do time for my affliction said it ain't your style I really thought I knew ya but you got it comin to ya tonight Mother to a lover but I really sit and wonder alright Workin under cover you've shown your true colours to me My hearts been doin time you warped her mind . You told me sometimes you gotta let things be Even when the world's coming down on me A judge to a jury that'll hang me high A noose around my neck before they tell me why I really thought I knew ya but you got it comin to ya tonight Mother to a lover but I really sit and wonder alright Workin under cover you've shown your true colours to me My hearts been doin time you warped her mind . I don't understand your reason why I don't understand why you try To get that jury to hang me high But I was blinded by your lies I really thought I knew ya but you got it comin to ya tonight Mother to a lover but I really sit and wonder alright Workin under cover you've shown your true colours to me My hearts been doin time you warped her mind .

Synaesthesia 04:02
Synaesthesia There may be thoughts inside your head a Monday morning burning red Look to the sky the colour blue could be the colour that gets to you The thoughts that swirl in your mind reality well you just might find A confusion you can’t tie down look at a square and you see it’s round Take me to heaven, and paint me a sign Show me a hell, where I wish I was blind Draw me a vision, that portrays what I see Make me a fighter, who never bleeds Tuesday morning wakes up green read the leaves of the hell you’ve seen Lover’s smile a web of lies human nature is your fool’s disguise You see before you something new ain’t what your head promised you Seeing shallow but you’re in too deep in your dreams and in your sleep Take me to heaven, and paint me a sign Show me a hell, where I wish I was blind Draw me a vision, that portrays what I see Make me a fighter, who never bleeds See what you say before you talk try to run before you walk Silent cries but not in vain and there’s a cut but there is no pain Foreign worlds you’re running through where true is false and false is true To run a mile but take your time, a twist a turn is a straight line Take me to heaven, and paint me a sign Show me a hell, where I wish I was blind Draw me a vision, that portrays what I see Make me a fighter, who never bleeds

It’ll Be Alright I like the way when the sun goes down The moon lights up your dark skin The way you’d look into my eyes and you’d smile We’d take a walk on a winters day Just to clear our tired minds You’d tell me it would be all right now and I’d smile How will I go on when you’re gone How can I get up and carry on How can I forget its been so long You never laughed at me when I was crying Never turned your back when I’d thrown it all away I’d hold out a shaking hand to dry your eyes And whisper softly to you it’ll be alright We made a lasting memory That I won’t soon forget Late evenings of rock n roll music and wine I still have the photograph The picture’s on my wall Now the past is the past I’ve drawn the line How will I go on when you’re gone How can I get up and carry on How can I forget its been so long You never laughed at me when I was crying Never turned your back when I’d thrown it all away I’d hold out a shaking hand to dry your eyes And whisper softly to you it’ll be alright

If I Could Only Tell You they're lyin' when they tell you that love's an easy game it's the loneliness without you that's driving me insane It's only when I hold you, it's every time we touch It's when I have to let you go, that it starts to hurt I know its not your fault that i'm on my knees in the dirt You don't know it but you know how to turn the knife inside me where it hurts If I could only tell you darling If I could only find the words If I could only hear you sayin' That I'm the only one I can tell that you've been cryin', cos I've been cryin' too I can see your heart's been dyin' honey, so darlin' tell the truth You've been holding it inside you, and I've been doing the same We've been lookin' where the sun's been shinin' but all we see is rain I know its not your fault that i'm on my knees in the dirt You don't know it but you know how to turn the knife inside me where it hurts If I could only tell you darling If I could only find the words If I could only hear you sayin' That I'm the only one Every time I see you smile, everything I watch you do Everyday reminds me that I'm in love with you But I can't say a word now I've been holdin' back So I carry on without you, and all I see is black I know its not your fault that i'm on my knees in the dirt You don't know it but you know how to turn the knife inside me where it hurts If I could only tell you darling If I could only find the words If I could only hear you sayin' That I'm the only one

Jennifer 03:08
Jennifer I won’t admit I didn’t take the time Can’t say that I didn’t cross the line Jenny if you give me just a little more time, to turn it round I’d drink a bottle everyday Just to try to take it all away Jenny if you’d just help me to find that line, in time Walkin’ through the streets of rain Now I don’t see it the same Jennifer if you called me I would say I was wrong But now you are gone Walkin’ through the streets of rain Now I don’t see it the same Jennifer if you called me I would say I was wrong But now you are gone Can’t say that I don’t miss your smile Can’t say I don’t hope in a while Jenny you’ll decide to give me more time, to turn it round You took away all of my fears Took away my darkest years Jenny I never thought that you’d have me here, in tears Walkin’ through the streets of rain Now I don’t see it the same Jennifer if you called me I would say I was wrong But now you are gone *but I still love you darling, and I always will*

Lay Down 04:56
Lay Down I got your photograph on my whisky bottle Make love to me put your foot on the throttle Slip off your gown sweat stingin’ my eyes Lay down I’ll give you a sweet surprise Lay down let me pour my love on you Lay down and do that thing that you do Lay down what we’re doin’ it can’t be so wrong Lay down and give it to me all night long Come closer let me feel your touch And I know I need it much too much Running my fingers down your back Slow down you’ll give yourself a heart attack Lay down let me pour my love on you Lay down and do that thing that you do Lay down what we’re doin’ it can’t be so wrong Lay down and give it to me all night long Lay down, lay down , lay down on me Lay down, lay down , lay down on me Lay down, lay down , lay down on me Lay down, lay down , lay down on me Pull closer let me hear you breathing Feel your power feel your heart beating Kiss your lips and I gotta be dreaming No one around to hear you screaming Lay down let me pour my love on you Lay down and do that thing that you do Lay down what we’re doin’ it can’t be so wrong Lay down and give it to me all night long

Sin for Nothing Your eyes invite me, your touch is tempting me to sin, and slide it in I didn’t know, that domination was your thing, oh let me in I didn’t see you, as an angel of the night, one night’s delight My heart was racing, as I flashed that wicked smile, of denial A little sin for nothing Its somethin’ I just can’t comprehend I could take you to heaven Put you down and have you coming again My hands are tied, as I await your sweet surprise, your red sun rise Anticipation, they say is the thrill of the chase, thrill of your taste There is one thing, that I just can’t understand, your promised land I could teach you, how to stop that red sun rise, in your moonlight A little sin for nothing Its somethin’ I just can’t comprehend I could take you to heaven Put you down and have you coming again Pot of gold at the end of my rainbow, a delightful disgrace Hot emotions are coming down all across your face A little sin for nothing Its somethin’ I just can’t comprehend I could take you to heaven Put you down and have you coming again

Liz 06:14
Liz I wish I could take back the things that I said And tell you I wish you nothing but the best And say I hope You find the love That you’re looking for You tried to understand every tear that I cried And now all I want is to apologise And ask Your forgiveness One last time I was lost in my anger consumed by my hatred of me Lost in the darkness torn from the light I can’t see I look on the world and try to remember a time A page in a notebook last photograph in my mind Now your voice fades in the night Lost in a vision that’s so out of sight As I think To myself Where I went wrong Sometimes I still see your face in a dream And it makes me think how things could’ve been But I wake And I find That she’s still gone I was lost in my anger consumed by my hatred of me Lost in the darkness torn from the light I can’t see I look on the world and try to remember a time A page in a notebook last photograph in my mind

My Open Arms 05:20
My Open Arms Lately I’ve been thinking, about the way it should be You paint a picture, you paint it black like me You search your conscience, for a love you once knew But the words they lose their meaning, behind the disguise of a fool From behind the laughter your tears fall like rain Behind a see through smile your hidden cries in vain In a clouded vision of the love you used to see Another passing moment where your heart used to be Let me help you see it through Let me make it alright Give or take a tear or two We’ll get through the night And in the morning sun Let me take your pain away Leave the past let it burn you’ll learn to love again someday You cry alone too often, or so it seems to me Picking up the pieces, of your shattered dream Let me take a moment, to look in your weary eyes The love I give you now, is a love that never dies So take the hand that I hold out to you To wipe away your tears is the least that I can do And as long as I draw breath I’ll never let you down There may be times I’m far away but I’ll always be around Let me help you see it through Let me make it alright Give or take a tear or two We’ll get through the night And in the morning sun Let me take your pain away Leave the past let it burn you’ll learn to love again someday If I see you cry These tears of yours are tears of mine I will run to you I’ll hold you if you want me to Please don’t say goodbye Life without you would be living a lie There’s nothing I won’t do To see you smile and make it through
