Don't Look Down

 

Diamonds in the sunset, now your time has come
Pretty yellow bird fly away into the sun

Don't look down
Do not look down

Spread your broken wings and learn how to fly
Take the diamonds from the sun,
Wipe the tear from your eye

Don't look down
Do not look down

When the candles burn down worlds turn to stone
That's when you've got to fly, fly away home

Don't look down
Do not look down

Get out of town
Follow the Sounds

Wrong

 

Everybody's heard it
How everything went wrong
Advance was spent some time ago
Agent's on the phone

Young Mr. Rockcock
Where do you belong?
The man ain't got no answer

Leisure line to heaven
Puttin' on the hits
Here we have another
Another piece of glitz

Young Mr. Rockcock
Where do you belong?
The man ain't got no answer
The man just got it wrong

Looking through the keyhole
Did I see another
Piggy in the middle
Piggy on the cover

Young Mr. Rockcock
Where do you belong?
The man ain't got no answer
The man just got it wrong

Countdown

 

I'm waiting on the countdown
Sitting in the shade
Things about to turn around
How the madness fades

Oh, I've been waiting on the countdown
Things about to turn around
And now I'm out of the lost and found
Just waiting on the countdown

Time slips away
Oh, this feeling lingers
Right here I'm going to stay

I've been waiting on the countdown
Things about to turn around
And now I'm out of the lost and found
Just waiting on the countdown

So I'm sitting in the shade
Under the dreaming tree
Now the madness fades
Right here I'm going to be

Oh, I've been waiting on the countdown
Things about to turn around
And now I'm out of the lost and found
Just waiting on the countdown

All My Sorrows

 

Only one thing that troubles my mind
My love is gone, left me behind
All my sorrows soon forgotten

Only one thing that money can't buy
True love that will never die
All my sorrows soon forgotten

 

But it's too late my love
Too late, but never mind

 

Only one thing that troubles my mind
My love is gone left me behind
All my sorrows soon forgotten

Soul Drifter

 

I'm a soul drifter
And I'm out of this town
Ain't no use hangin' 'round
You see

My heart was broken
My part was spoken
Now the ground has opened
All around me

I'm a soul lifter
And it's out of my hands
So it's off to other lands
You see

It's a new dawn
So it's so long
For the soul lifter
The soul drifter
That's me

This Is The Time

 

Sanity
We long to see you
Keep our ears down to the track
Honesty
Did we desert you?
Is the truth ever coming back?

Slightly episodic
Always on the run
Ever so neurotic
Still we have our fun
This is the time of the new sign
This is the sign of the new line

Time, this is the time
Time, this is the time

 

Revenge and fear
How can we heal you
With your heads down on the block?
Family
There is no curfew
In the town they call the rock

 

Ever so hypnotic
Underneath the gun
A little too erotic
How do we get things done?
This is the time of the new sign
This is the sign of the new line

Time, this is the time
Time, this is the time

You Do Or You Don't

 

Living in exile ain't the way to go
It's just another way of dying
A whole lot of faces that you call your own
All those faces are crying

You either run or you hide
Now you slip now you slide
You say you will, but you won't
You either do or you don't

 

Living in exile, just gotta let it go
You know that it's true
Just like a little child, you're got to crawl away
It's the last chance for you

You either run or you hide
Now you slip now you slide
You say you will, but you won't
You either do or you don't

 

Somebody's go to see this through
All the world is laughing at you
Somebody's got to sacrifice
If this whole thing's gonna turn out right

 

You either run or you hide
Now you slip now you slide
Now you will, now you won't
You either do or you don't

Street Of Dreams

 

Can't get going
Fear is showing

On this lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Street of dreams

There's no telling
What they're selling
On this lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Street of dreams

 

There's a shadow on my daddy's stone, where he was laid, laid to rest.
I ask him is this just a dream, or is it just another test?
I turn my back against the cold, I turn my face into the wind
And I wonder will I ever, ever make it home again?

Shadow on daddy's stone, ten years gone, it seems
I ask him will I ever stop, ever stop dreaming dreams?!
He said never, never, never

And I was praying
You'd be staying

On this lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Street of dreams

Surrender The Rain - Spoken Introduction

 

I've got to stop this obsession of revenge and fear
I've been running from everything that I once held dear
And it feels so cold; it feels like sin
I've got to stop this obsession and start living again

Surrender The Rain

 

Oh you foolish pretender
Somebody's calling your name
Foolish pretender, oh won't you surrender
The rain, the rain?

 

All those colors are changing
The chance won't come again
Foolish pretender, oh won't you surrender
The rain, the rain?

 

Fly, fly away home
Fly, or you'll turn to stone

Oh, you foolish pretender
Why do you remain?
Foolish pretender, oh won't you surrender
The rain, the rain?

 

Silence of stone
Memory of shame
Fly away home
Surrender the rein
Surrender the reign
Surrender the rain

Doing What I Can

 

Falcon sits
Out on grey rock
Slow death shakes
The ticking of the tock

I go to sleep
Things left undone
I go to sleep now
And fly into the sun

 

Oh, the sun is bright
But too bright to see
When the darkness comes you've got to fly into the light
And what will be will be

Oh, the sun is hot
A man is just a man
When the darkness comes you're got to do with what you're got
I'm doing what I can

 

Laughing in my sleep
Dancing on the stone
Waiting here for something
Something I don't know

Deep in the darkness
I go to sleep
I pray the lord
My soul to keep

 

Oh, the sun is bright
But too bright to see
When the darkness comes you've got to fly into the light
And what will be will be

Oh, the sun is hot
A man is just a man
When the darkness comes you're got to do with what you're got
I'm doing what I can

Turn It On

 

Now, someone has left you alone
Somehow you will carry on
You are the man
Do what you can
Just go out and turn it on

 

You can fight, you can pray, you can reach for the sky
You can heal someone's soul, you don't even know why
Turn it on

 

Now, someone is dead and gone
The hurt that you feel makes you strong
Time is allowed
Make him proud
Just go out and turn it on

 

You can love, you can hate, you can laugh, you can cry
You can run for your life, you can live, you can die
Turn it on

 

You can hurt, you can heal, you can reach for the light
You could trust in yourself if you'd give it a try
Turn it on

Say We'll Meet Again

 

Just say we'll meet again
When the sunset spell is gone in the wind
Please say we'll meet again

 

Everyone sees a tear in the seam
But talks about the weather
Everyone pays a price for these dreams
So why not dream these dreams together

 

Just say we'll meet again
When the sunset spell is gone in the wind
Please say we'll meet again

 

That was a dream, that was a time
But nothing lasts forever
Sooner or later we all must go blind
But we can dream these dreams together

 

Just say we'll meet again
When the sunset spell is gone in the wind
Please say we'll meet again
