Street fighting saviours |
Street fighting saviours
Flashes down the street
Got my mind on the favours
Damn hard to make ends meet
Way above the action
Next to a liars mind
Trying to build some attraction
I guess itâs hard to find
Donât take it for granted - I can see through you
Ainât got the answers - But I got plans for you
Donât take it for granted - I can see through you
I came empty handed - But Iâm never falling through
Shivers down my backbone
Need to hitch a ride
Spaced out and on my own
Sometimes itâs hard to hide

Young man, old soul |
Youâve been down this road before
Heard this story a thousand times or more
With a cynical bitter stare
You watch your life go byâ¦bye, bye
A young man
With an old soul
Open your mind
Donât close that door
No matter how high you climb
Itâs never high enough
Canât enjoy the moment, no
Never satisfied with what you got
|
 |
Killing time |
Crawling on my knees
Fumbling in the dark
Turning wheel of fate
Keeps spinning
Iâve seen âem come and go
Got the staying power
But I got nothing to show
How my life turned out to be
A rhyme without reason
A self fulfilling prophecy
Killing time
Donât know what Iâm doing
Killing time
Searching for that something
Killing timeâ¦
Back on my knees again
Lifeâs a losing game
This wheel of fate
Keeps on spinning

Fools gold |
Seeing is believing
Or so they say
But whoâs to judge
Whatâs real anyway?
I know itâs fake
So get off your high horse
Youâd rather have this dream
Than your tears and heartaches
Iâm sorry
But I canât help you
Iâm really sorry
But Iâm busy chasing fools gold
Itâs always been this way
I gotta ride my own wave
Canât intellectualise
Thereâs no compromise
Iâm not like you
I can only be me
And thatâs something
You never quite figured out

Black feathers |
Been ploughing the dark
Seeking shelter in hell
Where evil dwells
The more you saw
The less you believedâ¦the less you believed
Casting pearls before swine
They could never see. They could not bleed
Decadence rules divine
In this sick and twisted world we call home
Youâll seeâ¦
See another mountain
Calling your name
Another way to wander
All the things you thought wrong, all the things you thought right
No longer carved in stone
These wounds from the past
Will follow you
As long as you let them last
The rising of the sun
Is seen by everyone
Black feathersâ¦
Black Feathers at dawn

 |
Beneath the skin |
Always there to gloat
Revel in your failure
Echo in your head
A familiar voice
I am the clown in the mirror
The part of you, you hate
Never far away
Just thereâ¦
Beneath the skin
You sold your soul to me
A long, long time ago
Your own insecurity
Made me your master
|

Dance of the dragon king |
MovingE
At a frantic pace
Super fluidâ¦
So graceful
Dreaming the reality
Itâs magical
Thunder, fire and rain
The dance dragon king
Mesmerisedâ¦
As fate has its way
Relentlessâ¦
The art of death

Tall tales |
Rising up -Iâve had enough of
Your lying and backstabbing
Who wants to listen? Who wants to know?
You got a problem and you let it show
Iâm no fool -I see through you
Pitiful, thatâs what you are
You donât know me, you never did
And you sure as hell never will now
The things you say behind my back
Distorted view of a jealous mind
A jealous mind can be excused
But who are youâ¦who are you to judge me?
So you never believed in meâ¦
To tell you the truth
I never thought much of youâ¦
Telling all tall tales
Makes you feel good (makes you look bad)
But that black tongue
Is dragging you down
|
 |
The lunatic fringe |
Demon rising slowly
Or is it all in my mind?
A reflection twisted
He knows me all too well
A face in the mirror
A man I do not know
Hopes and aspirations
A thousand broken promises
Fear is growing slowly
Itâs drowning - killing my soul
Waiting, contemplating
The demon is reborn
|
 |
Look back |
No underhanded lies
Better look me in the eyes
Speak the truth if you are still my friend
âCause I wonât be fooled
By any calculated tries
Better change your plan
Or take your final bow
Look back
I never look back
To make me stick around
You have to compromise
Itâs a give and take
You gotta share the crown
âCause I wonât be hooked
By any mystifying lines
Watch me stand alone
Like I always have

Burden of dreams |
We used to walk in the sun
With our heads held up high
We vowed to never be like you
No, that just would not do
Where did we go wrong
Remember our song
Hanging on to the past
Donât you know that nothing lasts?
There was no way we could lose
Yet somehow we lost it all
And now we stand in line
Just like the rest of them do
Feeling the years
We cried all the tears
Feeling the weight of the
Burden Of Dreams
