1. Firefly
Out of breath in my mind i need a window
Something real, something fresh as air
Left this world on a psycadelic joyride
Only thing is that i got nowhere
Dig down to the center of my universe
Yeah for something i don't even know, no
You're the wing, the prayer that i been hoping for
Can you tell me why you hide so low
I am I said inside your head
It's only you & I, I am your firefly
Without you there's no me I'm not together
And my stupid little brain's too slow
So I wait till you come out and play again
Why the hell can't I take control
I am I said inside your head
It's only you & I, I am your firefly
I am I said inside your head
It's only you & I, I am your firefly
I am I said inside your head
If I'm not fed this golden flame will die
And all your words will lie
I am your firefly
2. Angels Ride
Don't you believe in where you're going
You act like you're afraid of knowing
They washed your brain in filthy water
And you drank it down, in the fear you drowned
And it looks like you're never gonna sleep
Don't like these caravans you follow
Your own hipocracy you swallow
What kind of god would make you question love?
And your guilt is a sin
They don't know where you've been
And you're dying all the time
Angels ride on the darkest side of your soul
Angels ride on the darkest side of your soul
Ah you know how they ride
Think your love has turned to hate
Think your love might've turned to hate
Solo
Angels ride on the darkest side of your soul
Angels ride on the darkest side of your soul
3. Tripping
Gotta lot to learn, gotta lot to live
Gotta lot of time to forgive
But I get jaded, borrowed, faded yeah
Gotta lot to do, gotta lot to be
Not a lot of dreams have come true for me
And the moments come and go like friends
We always drift apart when summer ends
I say there's nothing wrong
You say there's something right
It's hard believing
When I'm tripping down
Got my sky turned 'round
I can almost feel my feet above the ground
Gotta lot of faith even though I'm lost
And It's only you I can trust
Melancholic eyes give me away
Angelic smiles from you keep me sane
I say there's something right
You say there's something strong
I start believing
Then I'm tripping down
Got my sky turned 'round
I can almost feel my feet above the ground
O.K, alright guess I'm looking just a little to hard
But I'm alright now
Just as long as I stay where you are
Break
And I'm tripping down
Got my sky turned 'round
I can almost feel my feet above the ground
4. Daisy Jane
I make you crazy
Sometimes I bring you down
That's how I know our seeds were grown
In the same ground
And I believe I've known you for
Least a million days or more
Like the sun that drys my rain
Daisy Jane
You're the only one who understands
You're the reason I'm a better man
You're my life
Daisy Jane
I make you coffee
Sometimes I make you smile
I'd give you all the world
If only I could child
But you'll still get the best of me
Up & down and inbetween
And you rarely do complain
Daisy Jane
You're the only one who understands
You're the reason I'm a better man
You're my life
Daisy Jane
Solo
Yeah i believe I've known you for
Least a million days or more
Like the sun that drys my rain
Daisy Jane
You're the only one who understands
You're the reason I'm a better man
You're my life
Daisy Jane
5. Somebody Told You
Well you'll never be
Anything but a loser
Better take what you get
You know a beggar can't be a chooser
Somebody told you
Well you got no friends
And nobody's gonna love you, no way
Must be hard to live
With everybody else above you
Somebody told you
God wouldn't hold you if you cried
Somebody told you
Somebody lied
Solo
Let 'em crawl through your skin
To the place where lies begin
Tell the world, let them in
To the place where lies begin
Somebody told you god wouldn't hold you if you cried
Somebody told I wouldn't love you till you die
Somebody told you things that would
Cut you down to size
Somebody told you
Somebody lied
6. Month Of Sundays
I thought I knew the answer to the question
It faded then It turned away
The myth of time personified in fragments
That fed into an endless day
Looking for whatever in a neverland
The candlelight was burning low
I held onto the afterglow
In the year of the month of sundays
Could've been me on my way
Could've been anything at all
In the year of the month of sundays
Could've been lost in L.A.
Could've been anywhere at all
I wake up in a dreamy daze and wonder
Just how long you've been there watching me
And maybe I could slip on by unnoticed
But in the end you know that I would be
Oh more that I could see
And on a big blue mountain
Is where I found my peace
It took me for the longest ride
If freedom can be justified
In the year of the month of sundays
Could've been me on my way
Could've been anything at all
In the year of the month of sundays
Could've been lost in L.A.
Could've been anywhere at all
His only time that tells your mind
How long It's been
Now the feelings coming back again
And I don't think I'll be leaving anymore
Solo
In the year of the month of sundays
Could've been me on my way
Could've been anything at all
In the year of the month of sundays
Could've been lost in L.A.
Could've been anywhere at all
7. Only The Thief (whistles at night)
8. Heaven's Gone
Underneath the blacklight
Day-glow eyes and busy parasites
Taking their bites
A gathering of drifters
Floating through some kind of neon dream
Apocalyptic subterrene
God has left the building son
Couldn't take the heat inside us
Don't you think we've having fun
Now that heaven's gone
Blinded by the churchlight
Stained glass arms casting their stones again
Riddled with sin
Waiting for an ending
That might be nothing but a fairytale
With all the Mary's you've inhaled
God has left the building son
Couldn't stand the heat inside us
Judgement day has just begun
Now that heaven's gone
God has left the building son
Left us here to find the answer
Can we save our souls from sin
Now that heaven's gone
What if we were spiritless
Walking flesh and nothingness
Would it put your mind to rest
Or make you hold your dying breath
9. Moonflower
Safety is a pair of good shoes
Love is when someone's got the same blues
Blue nights over earth ain't no paradise lost
Bonfires lit not to die of frost
Yeah, I can see it all
I'm a moon - moonflower
On moonlit nights i bloom
I'm a moon - moonflower
On moonless nights I'm doomed
I'm a moon - moonflower
Breath is a matter of survival
Till you, wake up a dream -
And have a clue
And your rockets will fly
On the back - side of june
Though I break down, I break through
Soon, yeah very soon
I'm a moon - moonflower
On moonlit nights I bloom
I'm a moon - moonflower
On moonless nights I'm doomed
I'm a moon - moonflower
10. Sunless Star
Rise & fall, breathing small, chasing demons away
I'm a king in my desert world, I'm a snake in the
Shade, I think you know me well and I know you
I do. Sunless star in a falling sky that's who I've
Always been. Well disposed and paralyzed i need
A thicker skin.I'm trying hard to find the words
To say that I won't be here tomorrow, cause
I just can't feel today no. Miles wide where
Our souls devide, how did you get so pure.
Angel face you're in God's embrace, won't
You be my cure. I think you know me well and I
Love you but I won't be here tomorrow, cause
I just can't feel today and everything I am
Is hollow there's nothing I can hold onto. I'm
Coming home to be with you when I can shine
Sunless star did you go too far chasing demons away
11. Cool It
Oh cool it, I said
Why do you do this to you?
Slow down, take good care
You're really moving nowhere
Oh you seem, afraid it
Won't last - that's why you move so fast
So take my, my advice
Go straight, and settle down
Why not live a natural life?
And be loved for what you are
Leave all pressure, don't think twice
That would get you far
Uh you can get what you've been looking for
You're on your feet now baby
Uh you can have who you've been longing for
But you say if and you mean maybe
Oh cool it, she said
But thank you for your care, now
Please tell me
What went wrong
Can't take these ups & downs
The days I, hardly make it through
I swear there's a curse on me & you
It's bye bye pepsi cola, hello holy wine
Why can't I live a natural life
And be loved for who I am
Living high, living fine
Must it be on borrowed time?
12. Soldier Of The Light
Borrowed time let us love together
Nothing lasts forever
Memories never end
Smiling eyes, the girl that I remember
Wild & tender, like a flower in the wind
So how can I say goodbye
When the world shines on tomorrow
One more day, just fades away
But the heart you touched will cry tonight
For an angel lost in paradise
In another life you would be a star
Love would take you far
Like a soldier of the light you'd fight on
In another time love would heal the scars
Loose a battle, win the wars
You're the soldier of the light in my heart
Broken dreams
Never touched your soul
Cause you believed in life
Yeah, you made it your best friend
So, how could faith be a foe
Turn It's back on destiny
And take a life from me
Lonely days just fade away
Still the heart you touched will cry tonight
For an angel shot down in paradise
In another life you would be a star
Love would take you far
Like a soldier of the light you fight on
In another time love would heal the scars
Loose a battle, win the wars
You're the soldier of the light in my heart
