Dream has come
05:26
|
|||
Well I’m following the river downstream
To where the muntjacks graze
And I’m carried by the voices in my head
And I need no friend
Shackled to this fading star we’re doing what we can, we can
Shiver at this information, paradise is lost, is lost
And the dream has come, and the dream has gone,
We blew out the fires and moved us on
Well I wanted to be whole before I go, to where the tall trees grow
Well the beauty that was seen and was know, and will pass us by
Shackled to this fading star we’re doing what we can, we can
Shiver at this information, paradise is lost, is lost
And the dream has come, and the dream has gone,
We blew out the fires and moved us on

Yesterday's Song
03:53
|
|||
Out in the summerhouse that year, we hung our hammocks in the breeze, looked up at heavens full of stars, and we swapped our secrets in a haze, ooh yesterday's gone little girl, it's too late to change the world, yesterday's gone little girl, you reach out and nobody's there. If I was standing in the road, with no direction of my own, would you come running like a stream? To wake up this desert I've become. Ooh yesterday's gone little girl, it's too late to change the world, yesterday's gone little girl, you reach out and nobody's there. I came back to find you, the fountain had dried up to stone, I saw no reflection, the glass in the windows had gone, and overgrown lawns, the brambles and thorns scratched my eyes, and stumbling alone, I left them to grow to the sky. Once you were shackled now you're free, so get yourself where you wanna be, and kick back at the negativity, and clean out the junk room in your head...

Star of Gemini
05:01
|
|||
You sell the universe’s weight in gold
With the power of the feelings that you fail to show
If ever there was an emotional seed
You leave it in the long grass for the birds to eat
You wake up in a sweat because you feel that you may feel love, like it’s a disease that you’re carrying in your blood, but don’t extinguish this flame oh please, until you’ve lived by its warm light
Only seeking amends, I filled my head with your pain again, I was praying for you but now it’s too late, too late, too late oh, To feel your love, to feel your love
You never know the meaning of your own mind,
When the star of Gemini is in your sign
You only ever seek what you know will destroy,
You only ever leave it to chance
You wake up in a sweat because you feel that you may feel love, like it’s a disease that you’re carrying in your blood, you only ever grasp what you know’s gonna burn,
only ever shy from the things that you need to learn
Only seeking amends, I filled my head with your pain again, I was praying for you but now it’s too late, too late, too late oh, to feel your love, to feel your love

Come alive
05:05
|
|||
Talking in my sleep, I was calling into the night
I walked to lover’s leap, in the morning, to greet the light
How many days till the century’s over, with the moon my shoulders, together we can roam.
Take me by surprise, and we’ll seize the day, in some way
See what the shadows hide, as they fall away against the light
So many times when the fantasies shatter in the moments that matter, together we can roam
Chorus: When you’re feeling like you wanna be falling down, see the stars in the sky and come alive, well the earth and the trees and the skies so dark, well they’ll all be there when you get home
I watched you pass away, like the melting snow, it’s time to go, and I’ve fallen like a stone from the highs I’ve known…they come and go
So many times when the glimpses of madness steal the place of your gladness, together we can roam
Chorus

Good to be home
04:04
|
|||
You don’t cut me no slack, you’re driving me off the rails
Don’t want to be the moral to no cautionary tales, you’ve been gone for too long
Gonna get me some sleep, I’m gonna lose the thread
Found my way upstairs but the devil was asleep in my bed, you’ve been gone for too long
We’ll be riding high there’s still a fire in my eye
Gonna lay down low until the time is right
Oh lay me down, it’s good to be home
Standing alone in all this company,
Slipping into an after dark routine
You don’t give me no clues I’m supposed to prophesise?
All the raising of the wrecks well it’s bringing such tears to these eyes,
You’ve been gone for too long.
I’m gonna fill your days- there’s still a curtain to be raised
I’m gonna make it plain that no-ones turned away from my place
Chorus

Take me back
04:29
|
|||
Yesterday’s papers, are bleached by the sun
Tumbling in the outflow of the aircon, like a miracle gone sour, I watch for an hour
You caught yourself stealing, and turned yourself in,
Embarrassed that you failed to spot yourself in the identity parade, but errors are made
We rise alone….
Take me back to when the moment’s begun,
‘cause what I dream is what will come, what I dream is what will come
The desperate doorways that lead to your shores,
The painted over cataracht glass, that steals your light of day, take it away,
Cos mornings are empty, and evenings the same,
And sometimes in the small hours I will open my eyes and feel like I can see it all for what it is, for what it is
We rise alone
Chorus

Colour meets sound
04:47
|
|||
Feel the reason blowing in this wind
I believed that you were lost to me
Man there’s something burning in my blood
Can’t relieve it with philosophy
Hear my call, cos in my dreams I’m home…
Open your arms out to me, in this steelbound morning
I run my soul aground, where the colour meets sound, where the colour meets sound
Prove to me that this is not a dream
I’ll believe it when you fall away
Energies that lingered that a curse
See them fading into history
Even now, I feel your love somehow
Open your arms out to me, in this steelbound morning
I run my soul aground, where the colour meets sound, where the colour meets sound

Scribing an arc
06:19
|
|||
The city of lies held a gun to my head, alright
Counting my silver, and counting my dead, alright
I lost my horizon and I lost my beliefs, alright
I stunbles in time to a hole in the ground, alright now
Your cinema smile has torn up my plans for today
But when we compromise, you know we can’t be right,
You know I’ve been blind
Scribing an arc from my fear of the dark till my soul knows the way
Quenching your thirst when you’ve seen every well in your life run dry
When all of the stains on my soul washed away, alright
I dreamed the same dream for ten years and a day, alright
With cast of steel from the civilised world, alright,
We fashioned a boat and we fled to the south, alright now
Your cinema smile has torn up my plans for today
But when we compromise, you know we can’t be right,
You know I’ve been blind
Scribing an arc from my fear of the dark to the light of day
Quenching your thirst when you’ve seen every well in your life run dry

Watchful eye
05:52
|
|||
I caught a glimpse a waking dream
The stranded souls were tugging at my sleeves
We’re chasing something something that we just can’t hold, It’s always over the next hill baby….
Spirit us down some love my little one, running will keep us warm oh
Destroying angels in a place of power, a swarm of bees around your favourite flower,
I had a vision but I just can’t tell, I wouldn’t want it to spoil the party
Innocence will protect us little one, safe as a loaded gun,
Well you’ve got to turn this ship around,
There’s some kind of broken souls aboard,
They’re sick with a burning fever, alone in a fitful sleep oh
And the answers come when we stop looking
Just throwing stones into an ocean pool, has taught you more than twenty years of school, you fight your tendency to drift away, you only want to believe in something
Spirit us down some love my little one, running will keep us warm

Feel this age
05:05
|
|||
Speak to me my fading flower my friend,
It seems to me your fortunes never change
We burning on the Zenith of this wave,
See the hordes of angels cry for us
And I feel this age and feel it turn
And I throw myself to flames that turn
It’s little known place I roam
Winds don’t blow where the comfort seekers go,
Ease my load on this hard and heavy road
The turning of this chequered fate is sealed
But love will make these hollow creatures real
Oh the days I’ve strained my neck to see
And all the time we’re failing history
Fill these sails, come and lift them like a veil
Worlds may turn, there’s a rhythm we can learn
And I feel this age and feel it turn
And I throw myself to flames that turn
It’s little known place I roam
