1. ONE DAY

All alone, silence closing in on what was meant to be.
Here and now is the only future that is left for me, eternally.

I hear a voice cry out,
And realise it’s mine.
Stretching every nerve in line

All alone, I sit and watch the bluebird flying high above.
Overwhelmed, I rub my eyes believing it’s the end for love, It’s not enough.

I touch the void within,
And fear it touches me.
Closing every door to hope.

It seems it’s happening again
Like a long lost friend
'Til the very end

I hope that all those that are dear to me,
Know of all that wasn’t clear to me…one day.


2. THE GARDEN


PART 1 - THE GARDEN OF UNEARTHLY DELIGHTS

Welcome to the garden of dreams,
A place filled with kaleidoscopic sights.
Welcome to the essence of ‘not as it seems',
The place known as ‘The Garden….

Come and have the time of your life
Indulge in a concoction of the strangest wild life.
Be thrilled, be scared, live on the edge of the knife,
Come on down to The Garden…of Unearthly Delights.

Hieronymus got it right,
Ever-changing black to white.
Come in darkness, come in light,
To the Garden, (to The Garden, to The Garden) of Unearthly delights.

Shed all your cares and fan the fire
Enjoy the elevation of the hidden desire
To get all you want, just crawl into the mire
There's nothing like the Garden…of Unearthly Delights.

Hieronymus got it right,
Ever-changing black to white.
Come in darkness, come in light,
To the Garden, (to ‘The Garden')

Hieronymus got it right,
Ever-changing black to white.
Come in darkness, come in light,
To the Garden, (to The Garden, to The Garden) of Unearthly delights.


PART ll - DRAGON'S LAIR

Sinking low, drowning fast,
It's getting deeper, the longer you last.
Can't touch ground, can't see the top,
Don't look up or down, you might not stop.

You try and try, but try as you might,
You just can't crawl out of the night.
Shivering cold, all but stripped bare,
You're making your way to the dragon's lair.

Slowly going underground,
Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound,
Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour.
You find the strength from deep within,
You know this time you have to win,
You hope it's not too late for you to rise again.

Careful now, you're almost there,
Just a little further…
Now it begins.


PART lll - UNDERGROUND

What do you do when you are like this?
Can you see at all?
When it gets you, it spits you right in the face!
And when all that you have is gone,
There's no one left but you and you alone.

Slowly going underground,
Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound,
Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour.
You find the strength from deep within,
You know this time you've got to win,
You hope it's not too late for you to rise again.

Slowly going underground,
Treading soft, careful, don't make a sound,
Your mind is racing at a million miles an hour.
You find the strength from deep within,
You know this time you've got to win,
You hope it's not too late for you to rise again.


PART lV - REALIZATION

Finally knowing where you're bound,
Restoring life to barren ground
Your heart is beating so much faster than before.
You found the strength from deep within,
You knew this time you had to win,
You know it's not too late for you to rise again.


PART V - THE WAY BACK HOME

Now you've been to ‘The Garden'
What delights did you think you'd find?
Did you feel good in ‘The Garden'?
Enclosing everything, inside your mind.
Always something tearing you apart. (In ‘The Garden'.)
Always something breaking your heart. (In ‘The Garden'.)

Now you're free from ‘The Garden'.
You turned your back on that way of life.
Found in a better world, reason takes you another way.
Bound for a better land, where the season renews you every day.

Free…, In charge of my soul again.
I can see…, what's outward and what is within.
All around, hear the sound of two hearts that beat as one,
I've finally found my way back home…, to the place where my heart belongs.
Never alone…, turn my face to the rising sun
Joyful tears, no more fears, and my mind is finally clear,
Ooh, it's good to be back home.


3. ANGELIQUA

I look out my window, I see your reflection there
Images changing, I start to open my mind to you
The strength of your touch that binds us together, forever now
Now you're not far away there's not much to gain, and everything to lose

Oh, Angeliqua, I don't understand
Strange things are happening
I need to connect with you right now!

I remember the last time when I saw you smile at me
I wondered would I ever see your face again?
Or if I had a chance?

Oh, Angeliqua, I don't understand
Strange things are happening
I need to connect with you right now!

The one and only moment we had,
A distant memory, a fleeting glimpse.
It's all long gone, but not forgotten now,
Every facet of your face, remembered forever more.
I just can't get you off my mind,
Searching everywhere, frustration reigns
It seems that you've been lost in time
It's an endless journey, it's you I've got to find.

The time you were gone, we broke our connection
I needed you then, you gave me direction
There's a way out, if we're connected
You're leaving no doubt, left me unprotected

Oh, Angeliqua, give me your hand
Now things are happening
I need to connect with you right now!


4. HERE I AM

Lying alone wrapped in a cocoon
Staring out from a brand new life
Helpless and needing, constant feeding
I'm out of the dark…

Years come and go and time flies past
Suddenly days take a challenging turn
Chemical changes, at war with the world
At war with myself

Here I Am…questions, all are made to ask
Here I Am…hoping, this precious gift will last
Here I Am…questions, all are made to ask
Here I Am…hoping, this precious gift will…

Carry me on as the cycle repeats
As the life force comes from within
Fully dependent, the care that I give
Is the only reality

Many more summers and winters have gone
But not many seasons ahead
Is it too late to make my peace
With a world I left behind

Here I Am…questions, all are made to ask
Here I Am…hoping, this precious gift will last
Here I Am…questions, all are made to ask
Here I Am…hoping, this precious gift will last.


5. AMELIA’S DREAM

(Instrumental)


6. I WISH I COULD FLY

Standing alone, on the edge of a dream,
I'm falling forward and you are there.
Over the mountain tops,
Over the ocean, spray on your wings,
You fly like an eagle, you’re soaring free.

Catching the currents that
Will send you higher on Icarus’ wings,
Defying gravity’s realm.
Dance with the angels,
The force of the wind caresses your body,
Feel the warm touch of the sun light.

Don’t get too close or you’ll
cast a self doubt on what you were told
Escape from reality’s hold

All of this time I’ve been waiting
To reach for the stars in the sky
You spend all your life recreating
And once more you wish you could fly

From the land that lay dormant the lushness appears
You search for perfection but nothing’s there
Over the mountain tops
Over the ocean, spray on your wings,
You flew like the eagle so wild and free.

Catching the currents that
Will send you higher on Icarus’ wings
Defying gravity’s realm


7. INSIDE THE POWER

It's five o'clock in the morning, I focus on the time,
As I wake from a dream, excitement races through my mind.
The wind beckons as the sun breaks the morning apart,
Heading down the same old track, the panoramic view accelerates my heart.

Nobody knows what it's like to be free, inside of you, inside of me.

Inside the power, inside of me
Rushing deeper than the deep blue sea
I can know what it truly means to be
Taken higher than the sky
Higher than the sky

You come to the same place you've been there before,
Blistering perfection, you see it from the melting shore,
The perfect day, the shimmering haze, the southern sky,
The force of nature, the sheer velocity takes me by surprise.

Nobody knows what it's like to be free, inside of you, inside of me.

Inside the power, inside of me
Rushing deeper than the deep blue sea
I can know what it truly means to be
Taken higher than the sky
Higher than the sky

Inside the power, inside of me
Rushing deeper than the deep blue sea
I can know what it truly means to be
Taken higher than the sky
Higher than the sky

Inside the power, inside of me
Rushing deeper than the deep blue sea
I can know what it truly means to be
Taken higher than the sky
Higher than the sky

1. JOURNEY’S FRIEND


PART l - 'JOURNYE'S FRIEND'

Lying on a hillside, evening lights are in the sky.
Something reaches deep within my mind and asks me why?
Thoughts are racing through my head,
About a message long thought dead,
I turned around and realised I stand alone on high.

On my way to understanding journey's I must make.
I'm not guaranteed tomorrow, if it shines or if it rains.
Pouring down all over me,
Like liquid questions, set me free.
All the time in the world is not enough for me to see.

Severed from reality I'm waiting for the day,
When I face totality, I hear the people say…
The journey's just begun.

Self awareness happens and we're taken by surprise.
Elevated to a place where dark is lifted from our eyes.
We take each moment as it comes,
And treasure all that has been done,
‘Cause every piece of puzzle fits, that now you realise.

Revelations blow your mind into a million words.
Part of creative grand design, the voices never heard.
It's a rushing symphony,
Heard throughout eternity,
With countless movements, never ending, ever changing chords.

Severed from reality we're waiting for the day,
When we face mortality then all the people pray,
'Cause all good things must end in time and time will ease the pain,
But only if it's mixed with love and trust and faith again,
In the journey's only friend.


PART ll - 'THE END OF THE BEGINNING'

(Instrumental)


PART lll - 'THE NEED'

So I want to believe you
I want to trust you
But why is it so damn hard?
I want to embrace you
Turn around and face you
But I can't seem to let down my guard.
I want to be free,
I want to be free.

It's there for the taking,
No point in forsaking,
All of the providence
Just give in to reason,
Now is the season,
And weigh all the evidence
You need to be free,
You need to be free,
You need to be free

Free from the insanity,
Free from the profanity,
Free from the constant mind-numbing pain.
Free from insecurity,
Free from all impurity,
From the feeling of bashing your head against a wall again and again.

Free from the critical,
Free from the political,
From all the games people constantly play.
Free from limitation,
From cheap imitation,
From the migraine pressure that binds you up, day after day.


PART lV - 'THE MAIN ATTRACTION'

I'm going to join the circus.
I'm running far from home.
I can't take all this pressure,
I want to walk alone.
Hard, from the beginning,
It's the only way that I've known,
You can't stop people winning,
Or taking what they don't own.

Maybe they'll accept me,
If I can toe the line.
Hope they don't reject me,
And treat me like bad wine.
Ahead in the distance,
I see the ringmaster smile.
Arms outstretched toward me,
He's seen me coming for miles and miles.

He tells me I'm the main attraction people come to see.
They've been waiting for years and years, just for me to appear.


PART V - 'THE PATH'

We sometimes wander from the path we rarely tread
Become the searcher even though we know what lies ahead.
The race is still there to be won,
Don't turn your back on the silent sun,
Listen to your heart not all the voices in your head.

You start to open up to other possibilities.
Even though awareness of them spreads like a disease.
Your senses run in overdrive,
Awakening feelings come alive,
Ready for the first new chapter of your destiny.

Now the journey's finally over, it's a brand new day,
Exploding like a supernova, light creates the way.
Hidden deep within your soul your destiny awaits,
Trusting and acceptance at the revelation's gate
Of the journey's only friend.


2. GIVE AND TAKE

I saw you in my dreams last night, I felt you in my heart I was confused
I didn't understand what was going on

Our world was being torn apart, I was in two minds
Everything was going wrong, time to believe
And could we find a way out of this mess we're in?

I want to hold you close to me, so you can know
How I really feel for you, just one more chance
I didn't realize, I'm only human after all

It's just the way we are
Not the things we do
It's the dreams we make
And promises we break, so let's…

Give and take
Give and take
Give and take

We'll put it all aside, and forget the pain
Focus on our love, there's so much to learn
We are what we are, mistakes were made
Let's change our point of view and meet a brand new day

It's just the way we are
Not the way things turn
It's another long
Hard lesson to learn, unless we…

Give and take
Give and take
Give and take

It's just the way we are
Not the things we do
It's the dreams we make
When we're wide awake, so let's…

Give and take
Give and take
Give and take


3. WHEN I’M DOWN

I sit alone thinking of you
And what I have to do to have you near
I'm not the man I use to be,
You know I have changed my ways
You can see it so clear
Remember the time you planted the seed
You had no choice, you had no say
The testing times that lay ahead
The strength of love will find a way

When I'm down, down can I call on you?
When I'm down, down can you help me through?
When I'm down, down

It seems to let things pass me by
A world of delusion there's no reply
We can't sit back we got to move on
Because this life of ours without a lie is so strong
You lift me up when you call, my heart is pumping I feel like a fool
Now that you've gone so far away
You're in my heart each and everyday

When I'm down, down can I call on you?
When I'm down, down can you help me through?
When I'm down, down

Life isn't easy, we can work it out
This time I know its right
This time I know
Things are changing now
Its leaving me no doubt
I want to hold you tight
I want to hold you
Time is lost, I cant see
Everything is changing me
I'm down, down, down

When I'm down, down can I call on you?
When I'm down, down can you help me through?
When I'm down, down.


4. THIS LIFE

I overflow with senses enhanced
As the blood flows through my veins
Heart pulsating, I'm entranced
I feel it again and again
I look to the stars to find my path
I get no answers
Thoughts of confusion fill the air
It's you I'm needing

This Life, Our Life
Make it what you desire
This Life, Our Life
It's a gateway to the other side

Moments of passion and a thirst for truth
It's what we reach for
We are one as our spirits bond
We walk through an open door
See our way home, begin the dream
To seek the answer
To every question asked before
It's you I'm leading

This Life, Our Life
Make it what you desire
This Life, Our Life
It's a gateway to the other side

Can you feel it, our life?
Can you feel it? Hear me calling
Can you feel it, this life?
Can you understand the calling?


5. Love Never Ends

She lifts me up and takes me somewhere I've never been.
She reaches out and touches me, like no other.

This feeling never ends
This feeling never ends (feeling it in my heart)

Our love takes me to a higher place
My love, your love…

Eyes shining like the sunlight with that smile she sends to me
She is my future, and my friend, we are ever meant to be

Love never ends
Love never ends


6. SO FAR AWAY

(Instrumental)


7. DON’T GIVE UP LOVE

Living away from you, lovin' away from you
Thinkin' of things to do, different things…
Conjure up images, that I don't understand,
All of the plans we had, better left for the future.

Don't…Give…Don't Give Up Love
I still want you
I need you here with me
Don't…give…Don't Give Up, Love
I still need you
But there's something you can't see

I look at your photograph, your photograph looks at me
Think of what might have been, deep within
Surrender to feelings of hopelessness and despair
The only thing that keeps me sane is a light point in the darkness

Don't…Give…Don't Give Up Love
I still want you
I need you here with me
Don't…Give…Don't Give Up, Love
I still need you
But there's something you can't see

People laughed when I said we were made for one another
But you know I've felt that way from the start
All the plans we made, like all dreams would fade

And all that you could say, was now you're wide awake
You'd changed your point of view, you needed something new.

Don't…Give…Don't Give Up Love
I still want you
I need you here with me
Don't…Give…Don't Give Up Love
I still need you
But there's something you can't see

Don't…Give…Don't Give Up Love
Set my sights on a new day
Try to forget the past
Don't…Give…Don't Give Up Love
There's so much to remind me
Of a love that wouldn't last


8. 321

Working alone, engaging the stone, our lives went flashing past
No time to think, it was through in a blink of an eye,
With the outside world, watching on, living in silent hope,
Asking questions, theories tested, one of us sings our favourite song.

One way in, one way out,
Pitch black darkness, darker than the night
One way in, one way out,
…One way in…

Three hundred and twenty-one hours, locked inside the earth
Three hundred and twenty-one hours, before we'd see the sun again
Three hundred and twenty-one hours, every minute lasts a lifetime
Three hundred and twenty-one hours…..

Days slowly passed, no sound at all, locked inside a claustrophobic nightmare,
Hearing sounds from up above, scratching, knocking, moving slow,
Only a matter of time they said, only a matter of faith
Plenty of that from inside and out, but not enough air to breathe…

One way in, one way out,
Pitch black darkness gives way to the light,
One way in, one way out,
Perilous journey, inching closer, moments at a time…

Three hundred and twenty-one hours, locked inside the earth
Three hundred and twenty-one hours, before we'd see the sun again
Three hundred and twenty-one hours, every minute lasts a lifetime
Three hundred and twenty-one hours…..

‘Til the outside world…
‘Till the outside world…
‘Til the outside world comes crashing in

Three hundred and twenty-one hours, locked inside the earth
Three hundred and twenty-one hours, before we'd see the sun again
Three hundred and twenty-one hours, every minute lasts a lifetime
Three hundred and twenty-one hours…..
