1. Blown Away
We’re out of time and we’re out of luck.
The lines are down, but who gives a fuck.
We know the way but the way’s not open.
And all the links they have been broken.Oh and I’m coming on back to you,
Even though they tell me there is no way through,
Oh and I’m coming on back to you, I just have to make it.
Oh and I’m coming on back to you,
And if I die, road kill ain’t nothing new.
And I smile, all the while, every mile, all the while.
And I know I can make it.We keep the faith and we keep the pace.
We’re overtaking in the human race.
We feel the wind go rushing by,
It makes us wait, and it makes us fly.
Oh and I’m coming on back to you,
Even though they tell me there is no way through,
Oh and I’m coming on back to you, I just have to make it.
Oh and I’m coming on back to you,
And if I die, road kill ain’t nothing new.
And I smile, all the while, every mile, all the while.
And I know I can make it.
Reach for me now, don’t turn away,
Storm light the dark, and we’ll blow you away yeh yeh yeh
Oh and I’m coming on back to you,
Even though they tell me there is no way through,
Oh and I’m coming on back to you, I just have to make it.
Oh and I’m coming on back to you,
And if I die, road kill ain’t nothing new.
And I smile, all the while, every mile, all the while.
And I know I can make it.
2. Metal Sun
High tech, high life, blend together into cartoon fun,
Making journey’s in a crowded way, much to see but not a lot to say,
Underground and electric town, where new and old are lost and found
Land of many, land of few, fire and ice reach out to you.
East is rising, it has just begun,
New day dawning, for the metal sun.
Order, chaos, hand in hand, can you understand.
Starting out with a single step, where to go, no one really knows.
Setting out from your safety zone, meet me in the great unknown.
Lots to do and lots to say, hard at work and hard at play.
East is rising, it has just begun,
New day dawning, for the metal sun.
Fire, ice, faith, forever.
Day, night, sun, together.
Fire, ice, faith, together.
Day, night, sun, forever.
One life, one time, try it all as you make your way.
Don’t waste a single day, time to dance while the music plays.
Touch the light and feel the song, don’t be trapped with the faces long.
Don’t wait, do it now, see the dream, and you’ll know how.
East is rising, it has just begun,
New day dawning, for the metal sun
3. Dont
Don’t walk away from me, don’t turn away or try to flee.
That’s all you ever do, no wonder life’s too much for you.
High hopes, big decisions, run away, run away.
But you’ll be sorry some day.
You’re hiding night and day, anything to get away.
Your problems hunting you. Better think of something new.
Face it fight it, don’t deny it. You have the power to change things.
When will you learn there’s no escape.
There is one who conquers all things.
Nothing can remain against it.
Greatest power, greatest glory, reach out and complete your story.
Certainty you’ll die without it. You just can’t afford to doubt it.
There’s no way you’ll make it on your own.
You’re drifting round and round. No one’s perfect, been let down.
Yet still your hope and trust, lies with all that turns to dust.
You’re great, big success. Someone said you’ll live forever.
But you never found the only way.
There is one who conquers all things.
Nothing can remain against it.
Greatest power, greatest glory, reach out and complete your story.
Certainty you’ll die without it. You just can’t afford to doubt it.
There’s no way you’ll make it on your own.
4. Blood Over Sand
Chasing the border, the sun’s sinking slow.
Leaving a bounty in old Mexico.
Blood on their hands.
Full length old duster, hiding guns to the right.
Human Coyote’s, Five Sons of the night.
They understand.
Traces of silver.
Taking heart and soul.
Watch your back or it’s all over.
You know you ain’t standing alone.
Blood over sand. Destiny’s Badlands.
Blood over sand. Dealt by death’s own hands.
15 years later and “Harmonica” blows.
In from the southwinds of El Paso’s hold.
Something ain’t right.
At Sweetwater Station, the train rolls in slow.
With Cheyenne’s men waiting to give their “Hello’s”.
Get ready to load.
Traces of silver.
Taking heart and soul.
Watch your back or it’s all over.
You ain’t standing alone.
Like blood over sand. Destiny’s Badlands.
Blood over sand. Dealt by death’s own hands.
Nowhere to hide, no one you trust.
Desert winds blow, dust to dust.
Like blood over sand. Dealt by death’s own hands.
Blood over sand. Destiny’s Badlands.
Like blood over sands.
5. Plastic
When he was a boy, the teachers were so coy.
A prejudiced attack, portrayed a secret task.
To mould him and subscribe, benevolence with pride.
The morning shift was fine, the book the wine, don’t mind.
To go out on ones own, perform a solo show.
Growing up real fast, to avoid that silent news.
The cycle was his prime, independence down the line.
When they came to you;
Did you tell them what you need? What can you do?
Those plastic, they’re fantastic. Them plastic, it’s romantic.
The entertainment of his youth, disguised some brutal truths.
The functions, lots galore, polite on a dance floor.
Second fiddle was best, he could play before a rest.
The paintings on the wall, the coach load wanted more.
Did they talk to you;
Did they tell you what you need to do for you?
Those plastic, they’re fantastic. Them plastic, they’re romantic.
The framework had to last, the council house a blast.
A visit to the ward, so happy unaware.
The bungalow was prime, that hid a thousand crimes.
Committed in the past, to people unaware.
Did they talk to you;
Did they tell you what you need to do for you?
Those plastic, they’re fantastic. Them plastic, they’re romantic.
Those plastic, they’re fantastic. Them plastic, they’re romantic.
6. You're Going Nowhere
You’re going nowhere, sit yourself down.
We’ve got our job to do, mine’s to bring you down.
Let’s all just throw things, and see who’s the best.
I’m sorry if I hurt you, my mind needs a rest.
I wrote out my letter, I’m leaving today.
One more word from him, I swear I will say.
I wind it all over, a love in despair.
Everything avoids, in differ, don’t care.
Time comes, time passed. Before you know it the years have all passed.
Time comes, times pass, away.
Those were the days, the days of my past. The past is a time, a moment in my mind.
It’s nothing personal, a need to attack,
The nearest thing to me, that won’t reply back.
I’m leaving tomorrow, I promise, I swear,
Just pay the loan off the credit’s up there.
Time comes, time passed. Before you know it the years have all passed.
Time come, times pass, away.
Those were the days, the days of my past. The past is a time, a moment in my mind.
Those were the days, the days of my past. The past is a time, a moment in my mind.
Maybe it’s not too bad, here after all.
I’ll convince myself, I’m so scared to fall.
I’m going nowhere, I’ll sit myself down.
Reflect all the years, I got so bogged down.
Time comes, time passed. Before you know it the years have all passed.
Time come times pass, away.
You’re going nowhere.
You’re going nowhere.
You’re going nowhere. You’re going nowhere. X 8
7. Rivers
Dark waters run through my mind.
Safe on the shores you won’t find.
See the river flow by night and by day.
Feel the current move feel it wash you away.
From the mountain tops to the oceans deep.
The heavens watch while the clouds weep.
The river runs right back to you.
Deep waters what do they hide.
The surface glares so full of light.
Waiting by the edge the whole of the day.
Wondering when the flood will take me away.
From the mountain tops to the oceans deep.
The heavens watch while the clouds weep.
The river runs right back to you.
Touch the edge find the new me.
In too deep no one knew me.
Eyes so wide, what do you see.
Drifts eternal, to the sea.
Touch the edge find the new me.
In too deep no one knew me.
Eyes so wide, what do you see.
Drifts eternal, to the sea.
The river carves my life’s track.
I know there’s no turning back.
You’re arms are wide in welcome, back to my home.
We were always one, never alone.
From the mountain tops to the oceans deep.
The heavens watch while the clouds weep.
The river runs right back to you.
8. Hostage
Stay for a while.
If you bare your teeth, I’ll break your smile.
Show me a sign.
Dare to raise your guard, I’ll cut your time.
I think I’m going under. Loosing control.
Is it any wonder. I’m feeling so cold.
Ride out the time.
When the phone rings twice, try trace the line.
Hold if you can.
A stately high priced ransom’s in demand.
I think I’m going under. Loosing control.
Is it any wonder. I’m feeling so cold.
If you’re gonna fight. You’d better sit back down.
Ever heard of human rights. Well they just left town.
Another telephone call, about an hour ago.
Another creep from a freak show. How could he sink so low.
Now will the hostage burn of live.
If you’re gonna fight. You’d better sit back down.
Ever heard of human rights. Well they just left town.
Another telephone call, about an hour ago.
Another creep from a freak show. How could he sink so low.
Now will the hostage burn of live.
9. One More Love
Come with me until the break of day. Come with me then we’ll be on our way.
Take you to a moonlit town. Take a stroll arm in arm.
When we go, we’ll break on through. See the moon shine so blue
I know in time I’ll be all alone. With my thoughts, future unknown.
Early days, wild untrue. Lots of love to see us through.
Time’s a healer, I should know. Take a lonely walk and watch it go.
When I’m walking down that road. Gonna miss the lovin’ that I know.
One more love till the break of day. One more love and I’ll be on my way.
When you meet a new love I’ll know. Across the sea the time unfolds.
In the palm of my hand. Tension mounts I can’t understand.
Now you’re gone I’m all alone. No more passion, a love outgrown.
I think you’re wrong I need you now. By my side a moonlit night.
Early days, wild untrue. Lots of love to see us through.
Time’s a healer, I should know. Take a lonely walk and watch it go.
When I’m walking down that road. Gonna miss the lovin’ that I know.
One more love till the break of day. One more love and I’ll be on my way.
Late at night I can’t see your face. Some foreign land has taken you away.
One more love, till the break of day. One more love, and I’ll be on my way.
When I’m walking down that road. Gonna miss the lovin’ that I know.
One more love till the break of day. One more love and I’ll be on my way.
Late at night I can’t see your face. Some foreign land has taken you away.
One more love, till the break of day. One more love, and I’ll be on my way.
10. Very Soon Everybodys Leaving
You tried to find a way, to steal away my life.
You thought it would be easy, and that I wouldn’t fight.
But one man’s might is all, that’s needed to win through.
‘Cos even though you’re many, you’re reasons are untrue.
You stole my way of living, you stole my lifestyle too.
You lied about my giving, and lied about what’s true.
But life is haunting you now, the wheel has finally turned.
And when the reaper calls for you, there’s really no return.
When hope has left your life.
Then I’ll watch you die.
My mighty hands will reap your eyes.
What you’ve done is no surprise.
How many times you tried, how many times you lied.
But all that screaming brought you, was a terror born inside.
If life’s a precious gift, if life was more that just a mist.
My words are true, your end is near, an end you will not miss.
Very soon. The final line, for you is here.
Very soon. You cannot hide, the end appears.
Very soon. Your life so weak, runs colder by the day.
Very soon. I’ll celebrate the day that you ain’t here.
Very soon. Everyone is leaving
Very soon. All will be gone.
Very soon. Everyone is leaving.
