WINTER’S COLD Search with empty spirits For a brighter life beyond A stagnant human wasteland And the world that we came from Dark and cold Anticipating positives With the opening of doors But unforgiving winds outside Cause the tightening of pores Shiver from the lashings By the rain and snow forecast Winter’s cold here, now the summer’s past Tentative the strands of silver Filtering from the moon Catching every droplet Destined for the flood of doom Some embrace the temperatures The racing years bring fast Winter’s cold here, now the summer’s past Winter’s cold here, now the summer’s past

PULLING THE PLUG Like the bang on a drum Baby you’re so strong Walking into the room Spreading your perfume But I see a harsh flickering glitch On your T.V. display If you can’t locate the reset switch As a last resort Try pulling the plug out Pulling the plug out Slow and facing a halt Then it’s time to default You may need to reboot If the problem’s acute I can see the lights have all gone out Just a background humming Groundhog Day on a large roundabout As a last resort Try pulling the plug out Pulling the plug out When your mouth doesn’t work Head is going berserk Re-engaging the brain Stops you going insane But I see a harsh flickering glitch On your T.V. display If you can’t locate the reset switch As a last resort Try pulling the plug out Pulling the plug out

ONE DAY ALL YOUR DREAMS Find it hard to get up in the morning Exhausted being stronger than you feel When the panic kicks in without warning You believe there’s nowhere you can find The space to heal Nothing can ever be that bad There’s always something better than you had There’s light beyond the dark To help you through No one should ever feel that sad Remember all the things that make you glad Your whole life’s in front of you One day all your dreams will come true Losing love can lose your grip on reality The forest is so dark The trees are sad And in your mind you’re circling insanity A world that’s grey surrounds you Built on sinking sands. Nothing can ever be that bad There’s always something better than you had There’s light beyond the dark To help you through No one should ever feel that sad Remember all the things that make you glad Your whole life’s in front of you One day all your dreams will come true

FOLLOWING THE CIRCLE It’s a sign of our times Paper thin celebrities Wallowing in mediocre deeds Trapped in our prime Drunk on social media hype That doesn’t represent the life we need We used to know the truth Power was love and love was good It’s an orbit in decay CHORUS: Following the circle Chasing our coat tails once again Following the circle Afraid of breaking out in case it might offend Plastic the sea Dark clouds that choke the sky Crying on synthetic G.M. seeds When all the bees have gone And there’s a barren land Nothing breaks the soil No humble weeds It used to be so good Peace was love and love was food It’s an orbit in decay (Oh Yeah) Repeat CHORUS Shopping online Forget the towns and streets Just a click – delivered end of day Avoiding the grime All things disposable Use them once and throw them all away We used to look so good Eyebrows painted – Filtered moods It’s an image in decay CHORUS: Following the circle Chasing our coat tails once again Following the circle Chasing our coat tails once again ... … and again and again and again and again and again Following the circle Chasing our coat tails once again (one more time) Following the circle Afraid to break the chain in case it might offend

Some Life 05:03
SOME LIFE It’s some life Not good life But still life Yet I’m still here No sunlight No delight But it’s not right To lose our careers Can’t wait ‘till the world is open Locked up ‘till the stalemate’s broken In all of my years All of my fears emerging Suddenly and unexpected So take care But beware What lingers out there Could be still here In sunlight At twilight Past midnight For months and years Can’t wait ‘till I hold my loved ones Disconnected from daughters and sons In all of my years Love disappeared, dissolving Suddenly and unexpected It’s some life Not good life But still life And I’m still here

PILOT THE SOUL Flying alone like a dreamer Nothing emerging on radar I could have never imagined someone like you Shutting down, running on empty With fewer knots rather than plenty Then like an apparition right out of the blue Drying the rain but causing the thunder Gliding the path Straight, over and under You pilot the soul of my life Navigate hope in my dreams You are the one that I love it seems Drifting alone in the shadows Pointless past memories that time froze Circling high Confused No way to the warm Determined will and persistence An airborne body experience Tumbling down to the ground helped me transform Drying the rain but causing the thunder Gliding the path Straight, over and under You pilot the soul of my life Navigate hope in my dreams You are the one that I love it seems You pilot the soul of my life Navigate hope in my dreams You are the one that I love it seems
7.
MUSIC BRINGS THE FIRE A wise man thought he had the time To sit and write the perfect rhyme Then realised it’s like a holy grail Something always strikes a chord When language lost on spoken words Is delicately married to a scale Winter brings the cold Closer to the wire You bring the love Music brings the fire Words have always been with me In couplet positivity Not many lovers could remark the same Poetic meter carves the path Grooving spinning phonographs Sometimes reaching notes of great acclaim Winter brings the cold Closer to the wire You bring the love Music brings the fire
8.
SUMMER THUNDER The light’s been left on Don’t cry because it’s over The memories live on Be glad because it happened Take a long walk outside Breathe and open your eyes up wide Get a hold of yourself Before it’s too late There’s a storm in your soul Try spreading the love And you can find your peace again With opening of gates Embrace the summer thunder The autumn awaits Standing ‘round the corner Don’t put off ‘till the morn What can be done today - Transform Get a hold of yourself Before it’s too late There’s a storm in your soul Try spreading the love And you can find your peace again

Delicious 03:08
DELICIOUS You are delicious All of my wishes Sweetest of tastes upon the tongue of my ambitions Sweeter than sucrose Oh how my love grows Just like the cherry on the top of songs I compose For you, yes you You are delicious Savoury or citrus I am committed To be the one who treats you best ‘cause you’re so nutritious Ripe for the peeling Can’t hide my feelings Tender the flesh down to the core You heal my bleeding For you, yes you You are delicious

NEVER BE LONELY Don’t be a solitary ship There might be a lot of fish swimming in the ocean But dark is the abyss We can cause a commotion floating Sail forward, never once look back You can let the waves drag you towards the sun Or hand me your oars I’ll be the steady and devoted one So get up, get up and say Anchors aweigh And you’ll never be lonely Never be lonely Never be lonely You’ll never be lonely with me Don’t be a train without a track If you hit the points you can change direction Follow my signals To the platform of pure perfection So get up, get up, exclaim Ride my train! And you’ll never be lonely Never be lonely Never be lonely You’ll never be lonely with me So couple up with me I guarantee That you’ll never be lonely Never be lonely Never be lonely You’ll never be lonely with me
