1. Cities (Part 1)

If I want I could move these walls past my door to a better place
I feel like there's a wind that could catch all my fingers, fly away
Past towers of iron and cement touching sky over rivers continents wide
Onto rolling walls with billions inside, augment my view of life, white cliffs isle's east side
Blue fields of five waving patiently while I slide into new scapes of change

Because tomorrow I'll be gone
And all that now surrounds me will keep moving on
When I look back what will I see
Will I have learned a lesson, something I believe

Give me a journey
Show me all the colors of life
Give me the distance
Show me a way to navigate this world
Give me a journey
Show me the road that I should take
There is no reason
To be stuck in just one place

Give me the journey
Paint with the watercolors of life
Give me the distance
To walk the image I create
Give me the journey
Show me the road that I should take
There is no reason
To be stuck in just one place

Keys unlock the plain to golden gates that lock again a violent bay
Where will I land and what will fill my eyes - who will I be each time that I arrive
Blades of grass cutting lines in the dirt and burnt goodbyes I've seen that star it guides my night
By sea or land, shifting air, how I move I don't care
Kiss me soft let me go, breathe in me the place you know - I want to know it too (spoken)

Out of the window there's a scene I seem to have seen each morning
White circles, red squares, I bet you don't see this everywhere
Sure I learn and like and am the things that fill this street
But could you be content knowing each day these moments just repeat
So a thought, a pass, a plane, a ticket marked with ink by name
A taxi pull, a plastic tray folded upright till we leave the runway

Way above the clouds
Freedom's pure when you don't hold out
Watch the weight of all you've known
Pass right under where you've flown
And all the things that seemed to matter
Grow much smaller worn and weathered
Final approach, we're going down
Prepare to land on foreign ground
Way above the clouds
Freedom's pure when you don't hold out
Watch the weight of all you've known
Crash and burn somewhere below
Crash and burn without a sound

Off the wing it looks the same till clouds give way
A new domain beckons me to play
A new song, new life, new ways to fly
Grab on, hold tight, It's gonna be a wild ride

I wanna fly far away
Wanna see a different place
Where to go, I don't know
There is so much left to see - so

I don't know where to go from here
I don't know where to roam
What will I see tomorrow
Where will I sleep tonight
Who will I meet tomorrow
And who will I kiss goodbye

I don't know where to go from here
Still don't know who I am
In spite of all my travels
In spite of all I've seen
My mind replays the memories
And you can't take that from me

But who knows where to go from here
And who cares where I go, do I have to know
Where this road's leading, no place to sleep tonight
The sun just keeps repeating its pattern in the sky

Give me the journey
Paint with all the colors of life
I'll walk the distance
To live on the canvas that I stain
With every memory
Coursing through my veins
There's just a brush
And I am the world it paints

Tell me where to go from here
Tell me I can stay so I see you tomorrow
I'll sleep with you tonight
If I have to go tomorrow
Then I kiss your lips goodbye

I don't want to go from here
And will you understand when you wake up
And I'm not there in the middle of the night
These eyes have yet to see what's under all these skies

Give me the journey
Pour out the colors of my life
I see the distance
In the mirror passing by
Give me my journey
In every shade and stride
There is no reason
Why our worlds should collide

All I've seen and all I've come to know has carved me
With patterns you can trace to realize our differences
Are not for the better or the worse they simply just are
Taught in miles, learned by path, leave it on my epitaph
Embrace each uncomfortable moment then relax
The news alive and educates he who doesn't wait
But packs willing to return to the same space

For the first time
I am living
In colors I'm picking
But you keep on stalling
What cha gonna be if your never see

For the first time
You're given
A fresh pallet
You're mixing
But you can't keep on slipping
Back into the place that cha cant leave

I wanna stay in a place
And I must appreciate
Where I've been, what I've seen
Even though they're different things - and

Now that we've found common ground
I have a way to understand
What you are, how you work
What defines a peoples worth - now

I close my eyes, fall asleep
Knowing I fulfilled my dream
Now it's your time to fly
See the world with open eyes

8. She Looks Like You

All I see each night in dreams
Is a beautiful illusion
A figment of my heart

Haunting me, so close but never there
But I can feel her
My secret counterpart

And she looks like you
That's all I know
How she got there
Really I don't care
Cause she looks like you
She looks like you

Now I see you in front of me
In a men's blue dress shirt and paris jeans

A charcoal coat in modern style
A whistful face and a secret smile

You're the one I see
You're the woman in my dreams

All I wanted deep within my soul
Was someone I could talk to
Someone I could hold
I knew that any day now
I'd see her and I'd know




9. Eama Hut

I lock away that familiar pain in a place so that it's safe and
I put on a face that misleads the ones close to me
Tucked inside treasures of mine sit patiently waiting for the perfect time
My selfish, my kind, my loves, my prides, my pensive side, my secrets rob the heart blind

Over there behind the door are things I love and fear and so much more
Tapping louder than before the more intense the more ignored
The grey is flooded often with those hauntings in percussion
My childish dreams and fantasies keep them under lock and key

Should I let them out to escape the sound?

Where am I gonna go
To flee my sanity
I'm always running
From all the things I keep
Inside
To leave my sanity
I always hiding
From everything in front of me

My Life
Is creeping up on me
I try to hide it from all my friends and family
But why
For all that I see
That beat's still coming through clearly

So tell me what should I do - would you let them out and let em' play through
The song of Lenore, the love and pain that keep my core
Hush, can you hear the pounding
If walls could talk and doors could speak of what they've seen inside of me tucked down deep in the corner of my memory -
Hush, can you hear them coming
Sick of running from the past I will reveal the truth at last to anyone who wants to know this is how my story goes...

Who was watching a wasp when I started thinking
Why can't I be the real me
Here are my faults, they come as I am breathing
Why can't I be the real me
You love what you don't know so now I am asking
Why can't you love - love the real me

I will try to set it free
Release the demons that I keep
It is time to turn the key
Open the door and be the real me




10. Never Leave the past Behind

Assassination, stolen planes an', greed that always sets it off
Religious crimes, guided minds, bombs that drop don't land soft
Name your price and start whatever fight your looking for, it's at your door

Mass extinction, genocide we've all been guilty of these crimes
Domination liberates people are to blame reads a old cardboard sign
I want to look back and see weaker part of me and us better after all those years

None of that all of that can you hear that
All of it none of it learn to see that

Try to fly - broken wings - learn the hard way - suffering
Never try never learn never gonna be ready when it's your turn
Never see the warning signs - I've learned in my life
Never leave the past behind
Letting go - foolish pride - the help I need - denied
Turn away in the middle of a fight just in time
'cause you know that they were right - I've learned in my life
Never leave the past behind

Lines of The Prince and The Republic show warning signs of long ago
But who remembers to ask Plato.
Yeah, forget the books and history's waste
Full speed toward the next mistake
Panic cheers, jello, nikes, Heaven's Gate, comets won't outrun your fate

None of that all of that can you hear that
History wants a piece of you
All of it none of it learn to see that
History just repeats in you

Cultural jeans need a place to survive it's not just a fashion it's about staying alive

Remember your little eyes, little minds soaking knowledge from your fathers voice
Sitting smiling on your grandpa's lap resting on the wisdom that he had
Funny by thirteen you know it all savvy until you fall, just remember what made you trip
Next time how will you handle it

Cultural genes need a place to survive it's not just a fashion it's about staying alive




11. Hot to Cold




12. Last Chance to See

I bet you were right
With everything you wrote
And the essence of your words
Is what keeps a mind alive

There were gods and monks and bablefish
But in the end it's you and me
You chose the stars and scary creatures
To show us what we couldn't see

I thought that I knew
I thought I was on top of it all
And I hate that I now understand
That because you've gone away
I missed my
Last Chance to See

After seeing the world
You opened up my eyes
Made me ask where we come from
Gave more meaning to my life

It might be just a number
But now I'm closer to the question
And I will continue searching
For I already know the answer

I wanna understand
'Cause I thought I was on top of it all
But until now I did not comprehend
That because you've gone away
I missed my
Last Chance to See

Dolphins, Rhinos, Kakapos - you had your chance to see
But what about rest of us who had a different dream
I am tempted to use just one word to show you how I feel
Belgium man, yes Belgium - that should be pretty clear

We are all just asking questions
And are happy not to know what the answer is

You used Marvin's, Ford's and Zaphod's life
To show us more about our own
You wrote volumes just between the lines
And I just can't believe you're gone

We are all just asking questions but
You're the one who dared to give us a simple answer

I thought that I knew
I thought I had it all figured out
And I hate that I now understand
That you've been taken away
And I missed my Last Chance to See
I missed my Last Chance to See

Every night
I listen to your voice
And the wisdom in your words
Will always make me smile

I should have known
Should have thought about it more
Should have read between the lines
Should have been on top of it all
And I hate that I now understand
That because you've had to go
I missed my Last Chance to See

I really should have known
Should have asked asked and should have probed
Should have read between the lines
Should have been on top of it all
And I can't stand that I now apprehend
That because you've left the scene
I missed my Last Chance to See
I missed my Last Chance to See
I have missed my Last Chance to See
I have really missed my Last Chance to See
