1. Last Minute On Earth

Last minute on earth
what would you do, who would you call?
Your mobile is down,
who will write the history of that final day?

That last minute on earth
one minute alone, lost word or cause
for one who had everything,
now unfold this scary beautiful end

Last minute on earth
saving your last famous words
maybe just whistle a tune on a plain bird of clay

Last minute on earth
fractions of time is all that is left
You used to kill time,
now it's time who's killing you, they've closed the store

Last minute on earth
waiting to fly like pigs in the dirt
gold 'round your neck,
but your wings are broken, bent & burnt they say

Last minute alive
check your account, to buy a way out
beating the clock,
but you cannot beat the feeling of being alive!!!

Last minute on earth
saving your last famous words
maybe just whistle a tune on a plain bird of clay

Last minute on earth, in the rapids of time
A story on wheels without rhythm (or rhyme)
Racing the memory lane, high and low
You own the world but got nowhere else to go

Last fraction of hope, a flickering light
Voices so clear step out of the night
...go talk to your God instead of talk to yourself
Look into the light if you're looking for help!!!

2. World Without A Heart

When you turn away and lock all your doors
When it's getting out of hand, how am I to understand
And then you may think there's no turning back
Running low on self esteem
falling back into your dream

There's this endless hole in the wishing well
Wish you were somebody else
but too afraid to ask for help
Would you play a part in the scheme of things
And I will depend on you, if you show me how to do

We are the troopers, pick up the losers
and turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
and turn into a brighter day

And the winner smiles and she takes it all
And you are lonely and afraid,
but she doesn't look your way
And they know the drill, taking you apart
And the world that you have known
is a world without a heart

We are the troopers, pick up the losers
and turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
and turn into a brighter day

Who can tell the price of learning,
steppin out and turn the key
slow and steady fire burning,
feeding on it's elf esteem.

We are the troopers, pick up the losers
and turn into a better day
Pick up the sceptics, the non believers
and turn into a brighter day

3. Road To Sanctuary

Walk with me as long as we're together
Get your tickets to what is forever
Trades in loyalty and disengagement
First make sure that your business is hellbent

Then you are alone with the ghosts of the night
One Road may lead you to Sanctuary
Seeking the price of your heart and soul
You're still in doubt!!!

Step aside and you look at this rat race
Get some more to stuff in your fuzzface
Clear contender for wasting the best years
Your goldplated bones may rattle forever

Then you're alone with the dogs at the gate
One road may lead you to sanctuary
They'll still be playing Hockey in Hell
You're still in Debt!!!

On the fields of Green and Gold
On the hills out in my mind
that we watched and we played and we danced
that were pictured in the Sun

Words, thoughts & play that you constantly gave to me
Did I stop – did I stay – did I think
what the world would be?

How I've tried to define
what is love, in my mind
As we pass what is now
this "now" is suddenly history
Sliding thru the days
making notes of a different kind
Did I stop – did I pray – did I love, Unconditionally

How hard to face you never see a breakingpoint
There's nothing such as finalized, we all must carry on
If time is constant
rulers set the time, the time of day
But it hurts and it aches but it shines
and it celebrates!!!

5. City Of Angels

The sun is up, the early morning flavours
once more set up the trades and all the tables
we speak of progress, soon we speak of wars
we say hello / goodbye, we close the doors
The sun is gone for just about an hour
in comes the cheaters and notorious liars
like serpents crawling, close to the ivory towers
This – called "the coming of the business hour"

The native world they gather around the fire
to feed their swirling demons of desire
"The ones that have shall get" and that's a fact
take one step forward movin' two steps back
We all must feed the monsters of excess
to fill the holes in souls will leave no rest
"A man is nothing more than his success"
this seldconsuming race will be your test

A million lights still keep the city bright
the words are right but not the melody
There's no more beggin here on Eco street
But souls are starving to pedestrian beats

So many living here from day to day
They dream of "something else" but they still stay
This monster of a city takes it's toll
will no one ever hear or head your call

I'm Looking for love in the city of angels
Looking for love.

So many different dreams and different tales
A twist of fate, a spin of fortune wheels
The educated rise and make their calls
Before the blanket of oblivion fall

They took your land, they wrote your history
in grand old gestures saying you are free
they took your youth, they took the labour years
and last of all they took your dignity

Looking for love in the city of angels
Looking for love.

6. Elaine

Here she comes again, smiling like a horse
God he was asleep on that day she was born
Riding her bike with the sun in her eyes
finding her way in a world that still smiles

Here she comes again, dancin like clown
God he went astray on the day she arrived
she's stumbling ashore, like a pig in a pond
Ready to fly, ready to die

The world is a cruel affair
if you don't dance to a common beat
People are cruel Elaine, if you don't fit the bill
The world is so cold out there
if you dance to a different beat
people are scared, believe me Elaine

Here she comes again, dressing like a clown
God she's different, puts a smile on your face

Here she comes again, smiling like a horse
God he was asleep on that day she was born
Riding her bike with the sun in her eyes
finding her way in a world that still smiles

The world is a cruel affair
if you don't dance to a common beat
People are cruel Elaine, if you don't fit the bill
The world is so cold out there
if you dance to a different beat
but, people are scared, believe me Elaine

They say it's the inside that matters
now that's a lie, what a lie

Fly by strange little bird fly by...fly home

7. Thru The Walls

From your singular secret eye
watch the neighbourhood passin by
Stay by your TV and telephone
Stay in this fortress that you call home
Now you are constantly on your guard
but it's tough as they're getting
smarter and faster, spreading like rabbits
across the land.

Was a time when the sky was blue
and the traffic was nice and slow
Now, we've got tolls to communicate
We fly out in minutes to any state
Still I see sadness in your eyes
and thru the walls I can hear your sighs
and it's getting harder as you're getting
older and that's no lie.

Was a time when your head was stronger
You were brilliant but that's no longer true
Now your memory is growing weaker
You have long since passed your peak
No more Ace to play, in a fading day
You are still alive, nothing less – no more
and the years go by, thru the walls I can hear your sighs.

8. Sword Of God

It takes no muscle, it takes no mind
to see it clearly, what lies behind

it takes no jury, it need no court
this walking justice will walk thru doors!!!

It's the angels, It's the angels
kissin' goodbye with a kiss of fire
It's the righteous soldiers,
soaring, sweeping,
swinging the sword of god's mercyful hand!!

it takes no lifestyle, don't need no Klan
see we're all naked right at the end

One walk beside me on squeaky floors
One holds he wolves back, back from my doors

It's the angels, It's the angels
kissin' goodbye with a kiss of fire
It's the righteous soldiers,
soaring, sweeping,
swinging the sword of god's mercyful hand!!

It takes no jury
it needs no court
this walking justice
will walk thru doors!!!

It's the angels, It's the angels
kissin' goodbye with a kiss of fire
It's the righteous soldiers,
soaring, sweeping,
swinging the sword of god's mercyful hand!!

11. Serious Dreamers

Left at the roadside with this rapidly burning map
like a magician with no rabbits in his hat
Line up the measures to fulfill your brothers dreams
across the land we pay in sweat, keepin' up the steam

Now you tell me that you can't afford the dreaming
but I know it's just a lie!
Serious dreamers always can afford the dreaming
and you know we're aiming high

Put on your makeup, put on your dancing shoes
into the wasteland we've all seen you
dance away the blues
No time for introversions no more time to play
Serious distractions always seem to come your way

Now you tell me that you can't afford the dreaming
but I know it's just a lie!
Serious dreamers always can afford the dreaming
and you know we're aiming high

From the nest we descend in a mist,
all like birds on thin ice
From the kingdoms of childhood we dream on
and turn to the wise
And the code that was written in blood & flesh
in an ancient time
From the kingdom of heaven
the ships of dreams were sent to enlighten YOU.

Playground Pirates gaze at the Sun
far out sisters and flying Nun
Poor Picasso gaze at the art
Ahead of time means a Lonely heart

War is over, boys are home
move into the friendly zone
Dream at Diners, dying slowly
where hungry hearts grows cold and lonely

From the nest we descend in a mist,
all like birds on thin ice
From the kingdoms of childhood we dream on
and turn to the wise
And the code that was written in blood & flesh
in an ancient time
From the kingdom of heaven
the ships of dreams were sent to enlighten YOU.
