1. AQUA, POINT 1

2. WHO WILL STOP THE RAIN?

This problem is insoluble
The answers seem impossible
The logic ceases to exist
Emotion is the beat we miss

I stand on a world
Where dreams, realities, existence are the same
We take from the mother's skin
But the world is not to blame


Who tells the wind which way to blow?
I wonder who will stop the rain
The rocks that hold the secrets, they don't know
So who can stop the rain?
We've lost the path for all we know
Now tell me when will it start again?
And as the old man lifts his hands
Please can you stop the rain?

Stars fall far away
Like they never did before
A new moon shining
Like it never will again



Desert white cloud
Spirits they sing
Rain falls from the big sky
Onto broken wing

There is no sense in turning back
To wash the debris from the track
World without fears without rhyme
We fought for peace within our time





3. BACK IN TOWN

Wheels turn - smoke rise
Chrome wings - low ride
Freeway - red line
To city lights electric i glide
If there's escape from your illusion
You gotta break the whole constitution

Concrete - touch sky
Main street - dogs lie
Steel bird - black tie
Is this what they call the freedom you buy?
Look at him behind the delusion
All you hear is the voice of confusion


The bad boy's back
The bad boy's back in town
The bad boy's back
Don't you shoot him down

Wheels spin - ace high
No win - no life
One world - truth lies
Love's just a word on a red neon sign
If there's escape from the conclusion
You gotta shake the whole institution



If there's escape from your illusion
You gotta break the whole constitution





4. LOVE UNDER FIRE

Love under fire
We stand in the flame
Now and forever
After the rain
When is forever?
You can take it from me
It may be never
C'est la vie

Love under fire
And we stand in the flame
Now and forever
After the rain
When is forever?
You can take it from me
It may be never
Just wait and see

You can hide in the jungle
You can climb up a tree
You can scan the horizon
Tell me what you see?
As cold as a mountain
With a heart that can freeze
There's a storm on the water
With every heart that she seas

Love under fire



5. SOMEDAY

Don't want to live in another world
Don't want to dream of another girl
That's the way it was meant to be

I couldn't sleep through the lonely night
I just cried till the morning
It's not the way it was meant to be


Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love my shine on you
Someday you may find the one

You didn't leave me, you ran away
Couldn't face what you had to say
It's not the way it was meant to be

Now you can live in your other world
Me, i've found me another girl
And that's the way it was meant to be



When i dream, i dream of one world
But i know there's no such place
If i could ever find that one girl
In my world, in my world





6. LITTLE RICH BOY

Don't read "marx"
He's a clean cut guy
Just the dream
On a tv eye
If you swim
In the dark
You lose a hand
When you feed the shark



Little rich boy, she's gonna find you
Little rich boy
Little rich boy, those claws will blind you
Just a little rich boy

She got hooks
In your veins
Feel the pleasure
Kill the pain
Drop a pearl
See the dragon fly
Crack the diamond
Do you still feel high?





7. VOICE OF REASON

Nothing ventured nothing gained
Tired and washed out by the pain
Do we share this problem, will it slip away?
Or do we fight another day?
Was i looking for a friend?
One i could on 'til the end
Is there something that i didn't do?
Does it all begin with you?


So how did i, oh i
Give you reason?
But how did i, oh i
Give you reason?

After all the fallen tears
When we wake the token dream
Who let the water slowly draw away?
All the colours we made



To give you reason, to change the river's flow
To give you reason, to point the bone
To give you reason, to set your spirit free
I don't know, i don't know why

Is there nothing i can say?
Is there nothing i can do, girl?
Didn't mean to break your life
Didn't mean to burn your world, no



You can keep the silver band
You can have the memories, girl
Now as 'pilate' cleans the hands
It's no more to do with me, no



So how did i, oh i
Give you reason?
Let's the voice of reason say:



8. LAY DOWN YOUR ARMS

We used to live in a better world
Where sky and water were free
We point the finger
We point the gun
Is that the way it should be?

We rape the land
And we tear the skin
Burn the blood in the stone
To fuel the fire of a selfish mind
Do you want to live here alone?


Lay down your arms - surrender
You know you'll never get out of here
Lay down your arms - remember
No force - you'd better lay down your gun

Such are the sins of humanity
Dark is the air that we breathe
A war to hide in society
Don't close your eyes to deceive

Too many promises
Too may tears
Where does the future lie
If we burn away the years

We can make this a better world
Where sky and water are free
So give the hand without the gun
That's the way it will be





9. CRIME OF THE HEART

Dreams that have melted now frozen like statues
Under the surface here lies the unknown
Love has a way of disguising its purpose
Seeing your pain my hand goes out to you

You should have known better than to trust him
How the pain shines through your eyes

Nothing hits harder than a crime of the heart
It breaks you up and it tears you apart
You just want to die, you've been so abused
Now you know how it feels to be used
Nothing hurts harder than a crime of the heart
I'm such a fool, i should have known from the start
I saw it coming and i feel i'm to blame
But love don't give in

I watch your face as you stare into distance
Eyes filled with tears that look so far away
Deep in your heart can you feel a resistance?
Love it just happens there's no-one to blame

You should have known better than to sacrifice
The stained-glass soul you hide

Nothing hits harder than a crime of the heart
It's the kind of feeling that pulls you apart
There's no where to run, there's nothing to say
You never knew that you could feel this way
Nothing hurts harder than a crime of the heart
I could have told you he was wrong from the start
I'm not guilty, but i feel i'm to blame
My love won't give in

Crime of the heart



10. FAR CRY

In the dead of night
On the wings of the wind
I hear the ocean bell
With a flash of light
In the beat of the dark
The sound i know so well

I shall never forget you
It's been so long
I should never have left you
The call so strong


It's a far cry from a wild world
It want to get back to you
Such a long road, to the homeland
I must make my way to a far cry

From the chords of the earth
To the depths of the sea
I will return
As i look to the hill
Through the eyes of the storm
I touch the flame

I shall never forget you
It's been so long
I should never have left you
The call so strong



It's such a far cry



11. DON'T CALL ME

You know i'll never understand your reasons
I gave you all the love that i could give
Now i'm sitting on a plane to take me far away
I've got to find a new place to live

It used to feel so good when you stood beside me
How can you forget the words you said?
Things like: i'm gonna stay with you forever
Will always echo in my head

Don't call me, don't call me, no more

If this plane ride lasts forever
I couldn't quite get over you
We spent too much time together
I can't believe we're through

Don't call me, don't call me, no more



12. HEAVEN ON HEARTH

I am caught in the heat
Hold your head as you sleep
How can i close my eyes watching you
Such a fever inside from emotions within
Burning the night with the truth

Sweetest poison - positive attraction
Raging in my mind


Oh if you walk away
You'll take the life from me
Oh if you walk away
You'll take the air i breathe
Life would be lonely
More than you'll ever know
'cos you've put all heaven on earth

I hear the sound of your voice
On the breach of the wind
I feel the touch of an angel
Next to my skin
It cuts so deep inside
It draws out the life
Harder with every time

Sweetest poison - positive attraction
Raging in my mind
