8. Slow Burn

1. His Voice

Nostalgia plays through me
Along with the radio
A taste, a scene, a sound
A touch is not enough

If only I
Had known his fear
So torn and feeling frighened

15 years have passed
A sour taste still curls my tongue
In despair, he danced the air
A life became undone

If only I
Had recognized
A silenced cry of sweet lies

Ma, you know you can't hold me now
Ma, would you like to hold me now

I heard his voice
The trace of tears
Still live within that moment

I heard his voice
He lost his will
One's fate revealed that moment
I heard his voice
The moment ends
So much was said in silence

Ma, you know you can't hold me now
Ma, would you like to hold me now
And if I could I would
If what had happened then today
I hold you close
Not turn away




2. Statued

I sit and read your story
Mortal image statued
Delusions of one's glory
Irony masked in virtue

When mom she told me
"I'm not going to live forever"
She gave this manuscript to me
"To read when I am gone"

Tell me what it's like to be
Where you are, I wanna be
The invitation
To this sensation

As I read the last few lines
I slowly start to realize
You have opened up my mind
This is completely beautiful

And now it all makes sense
These words I wish she spoke to me
It was right in front of me
I feel her next to me

Tell me what it's like to be
Where you are, I wanna be
The invitation
To this sensation

I need to break away
Need to break through
Throw it all away
Show me how to

I adore you
I won't forget you
I adore you
You helped me break through
I adore you
You held onto me
I adore you
I feel you

Tell me what it's like to be
Where you are, I wanna be
I'm tired of feeling out of place
Too many roles I imitate
Tell me what it's like to be
Where you are, I wanna be
The invitation
To this sensation




3. Shores of Avalon

I never saw it coming
Somehow the heat of battle
Sure dulled my senses to the real world
Or was I dreaming?
She held my hand and knew me
She looked right through all I knew

Lie quiet, let the rain wash over me now

Inside the royal chambers
She's staring out her window
Tears well hidden by a crimson veil
This is the poison
Clutching a Turkish dagger
By the moonlight I feel it begin

I'm wounded, let the pain wash over me now

Loneliness again
Sits here alongside of me
Gotta make my way
To where the waters heal my wounds
I know this is where I'll stay
Too jaded by her deception
A trust I thought to believe
I just wanna rest
And live out the best of my days
When I reach Avalon

Walking to my window
I'm feeling weak and so betrayed by all I've lost
I'm left here
To comprehend this strange barrage of lies

By the dawn's early light
The war had raged through the night
I turned to her I thought I heard her crying
I could see by her face
Before she laid to me waste
That there was someone she's dying for
Someone else out there besides me

I'm fading, let the fear drain away from me now

My fear's been broken
As the healing waters poured over me
And I begin to feel
Feel its magic strengthen me
I know this is where I'll stay
Can't take anymore deception
I just want peace in my heart
This calm I am feeling
I've never known until
Until I reach Avalon

Lie quiet, let the pain wash away from me now

No beginning or end
All of the roles we pass on through
I looked inside and I saw
My soul's my guide, I need to walk with you
I know this is where I'll stay
The world I've left behind
Has no place in my heart
I can finally rest
And live out the rest of my days
I'll never leave Avalon




4. Beelzebubba

An intern
In a silhouette
Gets DNA
From the president
Let me tell you...
I guarantee it
He's got his
Yes senator
The bill's fat...
It feels good...
I didn't mean that
It's for the children
Don't forget it

Cause slick Willy
He's selling his jive
Slick Willy
He's taking a dive
Slick Willy
Slick Willy
Slick Willy

Oh Arafat
And Albright
America
A sad sight
Let me tell you...
I guarantee it
He's got his

We've got that we deserved
It's much too late
To go back
We were taken for the ride...
So many tried to say
We have only taken
What we've sown
And when time passed
It had grown
Into

Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Bubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba

While the country
Is burning down
We're being sold out
In the big town
Have they got yours?
Cause I guarantee you...
They've got mine

Now slick Willy
He's selling his jive
Slick Willy
Is taking a dive
Slick Willy
Slick Willy
Slick Willy
Slick Willy
Slick Willy
Slick Willy

We've got that we deserved
It's much too late
To go back
We were taken for the ride...
So many tried to say
We have only taken
What we've sown
And when time passed
It had grown
Into

Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Bubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba
Beelzebubba




5. Guardian Angel

In the early misty morning
As you open your eyes I am there

Another day in a cold uncaring world
Dark treasons cold unhearted ways

I stand before your providence
Nobody comes, nobody goes

You're so bright eyed and innocent
There's a side of life you just don't know

Draw yourself close to me
I'll take them all, I'm not afraid
Your faith is all I need
I'll simply lay my life down for you
And never turning away
I'm your guardian angel
I'm your guardian angel

I dream of a place of simple love
Detached from the wicked and the bad

Lost out in a storm of sinfulness
Where is the kindness we used to have?
Have

Your life is sworn to me
I'll take them all, I'm not afraid
I'll give you all I need
And when the rest have left you for dead
You can count on me

I'll never leave, never go
Wrap yourself around my world
Now go to sleep in my arms tonight
So when it's hard, when it's cold
When you're so afraid just close your eyes
Rest easy child and know I'm by your side

I hear you weep
Dreaming among the stars
And I see your smile in the sun
I hope you'll understand
Someday far down the road
That I showed you love
All the while
All the while... with me

I'll never leave, never go
Wrap yourself around my world
Now go to sleep in my arms tonight
So when it's hard, when it's cold
When you're so afraid
Just close your eyes
Rest easy child and know I'm by your side

I'm your guardian angel

I dream of a place of simple love
Detached from the wicked and the bad, with love
Lost out in a storm of sinfulness, ooh
Where is the kindness we used to have?




6. Sacrifice

I remember
A time when I was free when I could fly away
Sky's the limit
I sang my song it was my dream and still is today

Changes come
Changes go
Where they lead I just don't have a say
Don't have a say

Do you remember
The time I traveled sing my songs to all the world
You were stronger
But that's all gone and that's okay, you're still my girl

Seasons come
Seasons go
Where they lead I just don't ever know
Don't ever know

I know you need me here to see you through
I'm gonna make your eyes shine like brand new
I'd sacrifice all that I have and more
Forever until death do us part

All those pictures
Painted by your hand I still remember
How beautiful
Nothing's changed you're still the one I'm dreaming of

Just this morning
You awoke and took my hand I smiled inside
How long we have here
Left to us, we'll do our best and enjoy the ride

Good times come
Good times go
When they've gone how will we ever know
We ever know

I know you need me here to see you through
I'm gonna make your eyes shine like brand new
I'd sacrifice all that I have and more
Forever until death do us part




7. Lace

Sit with me in the corner
Where the lights are low
Maybe you can make it right
Maybe you can make it right
With all the lights still covered
There's something too familiar
A little much to hang onto
A little much to hang onto

What I believed in no longer matters
Won't try and hold onto who I once was

Why should it matter
What I prefer
But society slams me
Thinks I'm less of a man

Now I know I'm wanting
To go back to you
And I don't quite understand
And I don't quite understand
Can't deny these feelings
That are coming through
Is this who I really am
Is this who I really am

I never imagined this that I'm feeling
I finally have something I believe in

It shouldn't matter
This is who I am
But society slams me
Calls me less of a man

I've finally something to believe in
I never imagined what I was feeling

It shouldn't matter
You don't feel the same
But so quick to judge and
You don't understand




8. Slow Burn

I feel my future
Tied to my past
Why don't we go and leave this world behind
Watch me as I wonder
Aimless through this mystery
Counting all the times
You've fallen to the cold
You were always there for me
Always said a prayer for me

I'm drifting in time
No reason I find
You always come to my soul
Somehow you believed
There'd always be a season for us to behold
I'm drifting in time
No reason no rhyme
You always come to my soul
I've learned to believe
So thank you for the slow burn you'be brought to my heart
And you are the one
Yes you are the one

I have been too distant
Sometimes just too far away
Let me go and leave it all behind
Sorry if I've hurt you
Sorry for the time we've lost
If you could just forgive me
I'd bow down before you
So that you could see I'm real
So that you could hear these words

I'm drifting in time
No reason I find
You always come to my soul
Somehow you believed
There'd always be a season for us to behold
I'm drifting in time
No reason no rhyme
You always come to my soul
I've learned to believe
So thank you for the slow burn you'be brought to my heart
And you are the one
Yes you are the one

I'm drifting in time
No reason I find
You always come to my soul
Somehow you believed
There'd always be a season for us to behold
I'm drifting in time
No reason no rhyme
You always come to my soul
I've learned to believe
So thank you for the slow burn you'be brought to my heart
And you are the one
Yes you are the one




9. As a Man Thinks

First, the bad news...
Face the music
Mind over matter
In other words...
My imagination run amuck
Give and take with inspiration, information, innovation, impossible situation?
Worsening aggravation
Change, Every change, every step, every moment defined
As a man... as a man... as a man thinks

Shell game in a strait jacket
12 gauge
In a shotgun racket
Shinbone, shindig, shimmy for the Shinto
Got to do this all alone
Wait
Better slow it down and think about it

Embracing this moment
Enslave or free my soul
Just to play the game
With no guarantee
Is what I'll do for now
My life's a requiem playing
Out of key with no 'absolutes' at all
Who promised tomorrow?
Tomorrow may not even be here

How long am I blameless
'Undecided' in a frantic world?
My velocity screaming fast
From this truth I fear
Where did I hear:
'As a man thinks
So is he'?
But this man thinks
'Till his moment's gone'

Scapegoat to the end, dig it?
Whiz-bang
In a whirlwind minute
Voodoo - take a turn
Why not
Nuke my head - feel it burn?
Wind up where you were
If you think about it
Shell game in a strait jacket
12 gauge
In a shotgun racket
Shinbone, shindig, shimmy for the Shinto
Got to do this all alone
Wait
Better slow it down and think about it
Better slow it down
Take a moment right now
Let a man think
As a man thinks
What a man thinks...

(Hey there Budapest)
(What about... let's just give it a rest)

Scapegoat to the end, dig it?
Whiz-bang
In a whirlwind minute
Voodoo - take a turn
Why not
Nuke my head - feel it burn?
Wind up where you were
If you think about it
Shell game in a strait jacket
12 gauge
In a shotgun racket
Shinbone, shindig, shimmy for the Shinto
Got to do this all alone
Wait
Better slow it down and think about it
Better slow it down
Take a moment right now
Let a man think
As a man thinks
What a man thinks...

Bottom line?
Get it in
Get it off
Get it out
Get away
Get a buck
Get a clue
Now he just wants more

And he feels it
Now...
No more indecisions here
No more time to figure things out
No more lies
No mortal sin
He'll pay up square
But he won't get in
Too many opportunities
Too many reasons
Too many travesties
Now for the good news
It's gonna get...
Gonna get wild
When you wake up and realize
You've still got it all

(Hey there Budapest)
(How about next time we do our damn best?)
