Every Question Has An Answer
When wings of birds can no longer spread
To fly high to their greatest flights
May differ an old man who can hardly head
Up and down the stairs with all his plights
When old age becomes the agony of living
And illnesses contribute to fall apart
It's like limbs of trees with wind wailing
Then down the ridge they topple and part
So, why envy the strong, bold, and beautiful
And the solid rich, who seems to have it all
When each one, in fact, has time in particular
To dust we will return, and so they are
Life in all its fairness, love is wonderful
When it's from the heart, pure and simple
To adhere the mind not be poisoned by others
To betray its honesty; otherwise, it withers
Stellar dreams, some stars may rise and shine
Along the road, some teams may win or lose
But when they reached this fame and whine
Over money, greed comes to suck all its cause
It's true! In life, every question has an answer
Either right or wrong, it depends how we try
For no truth to blame others when failures were
The grief of falling apart, should we ask God why?

I Will Take The Money
In assets quite poor with little cash to my name
I will take the money you can have the fame
Your fame it will not buy you a loaf of bread
No you have the fame I'll have money instead
Your money speaks more of you as it does seem
Than fame or it's sibling known as high esteem
With money as such they cannot hope to compare
This simple truth with you I only do share
Few things money cannot buy that much we do know
And on bushes and trees money it does not grow
In life it is quite important it does seem that way
And it does speak every language as some are known to say
Perhaps I may sound greedy for that me do not blame
When I say I will take the money you can have the fame.

Life
Life is so beautiful
With butterflies and birds all around
Life is so wonderful
With flowers and trees on the ground
The hibiscus is so beautiful
They are so attractive and red
The cock and hen are wonderful
They have a crown upon their head
The jasmines are so beautiful
Day and night they spread their fragrance
The eagles are so wonderful
They are experts in vigilance
Life is so beautiful
With magnificent plants and trees
Life is so wonderful
You should help save it please

I Am So Sorry
I am so sorry that you no longer believe in your dreams;
I am so sorry that now, sadly, it surely seems
As though you have given more thought to
The ignorance of others, instead of what you ought to-
Namely, the love you have, guarded deep in your heart.
For the sake of 'what others might think', you've allowed part
With all that which presented as answer to your prayers.
The soul that is meant to fly belongs to the one who dares
Fly, despite any impediment that may be placed in its way.
I am so sorry that you have allowed your heart to decay
As it has-for the sake of prevarication by someone unknown.
The mind that is truly strong, must be able to think on its own-
I am so sorry that you no longer possess this ability;
I am so sorry that real love for you, is no longer a possibility-
Not until you learn to live the life you truly want to live,
Unaffected by the potential for uninformed opinions people may give.
I am so sorry that you would rather be a martyr to the throng-
Even though their lives are unaffected and their opinions are wrong!
I am so sorry that your heart apparently has a switch,
That you can flip, to either now or then, live a lie; which is which! ?
I am so sorry that when confronted by a scenario of 'fight or flight',
You chose to flee, instead of what your heart knows is right!
I cannot live this way, I have always been true to myself, and to you;
If roles were reversed between the two of us, what would you do! ? !
The answer to that question is the path you should have espoused.
My wish for you is that this answer has already been aroused.

Death Is Not Goodbye, It Is Just Farewell
I've reached that point where I now know,
My life here is over it's my time to go,
By the principles of honesty I've tried to adhere,
Perhaps that's why I do not feel fear.
When I leave this life my journey will start,
So I don't feel down now it's time to depart,
I'll be heading for the joys of eternal life,
No more pain or the feelings of strife.
I'll feel sadness for those I will leave behind,
But we'll never be far from each others mind,
I'll be watching over them from up above,
that way I can shower them all with my love.
I'll leave them with memories they'll never forget,
By focusing on them there will be no regret,
Life will go on but they will be aware,
They will feel my presence they'll know I am there.
I'll be back again with my Mum and Dad,
With that in mind how could I feel sad,
From those earthly pressures I'll forever be free,
There is so much I'm looking forward to see,
Thousands of relatives and friends from the past,
Together forever this new life will last,
Scientists say it's a dream but dreams do come true,
My undying faith will carry me through.
They'll all be waiting for me to arrive,
With that welcome to come I know I will thrive,
I'll be safe in the knowledge this new life is forever,
Where all life is equal now that's really clever.
There'll be animals and plants and beautiful seas,
No fighting or hatred nor any disease,
A kingdom where we are all treated the same,
Equality for all no recognition of fame.
No religious conflict or issues of race,
Infinite happiness is what I now face,
A wonderful world with a happy accord,
If you trust in your God this will be your reward.
No more sadness just feelings of joy,
Where nothing can upset or ever annoy,
That life I once had I will no longer miss,
For the one I have now is perpetual bliss.
By teaching your loved ones you will meet again,
From grieving too much it will help them refrain,
By knowing you're around them their fears will dispel,
‘' Death Is Not Goodbye It Is Just Farewell ‘'
Im Living My Life
Part of my life is tatoo's, penetentry rules
When running yo mouth only seperates the men from the fools
Part of my life is bullets, guns, blood, sweat and tears
This is the part of my life that I've lived for years
Part of my life is dreams, wishes, hopes, happyness
Where I could care less about the world and its current happenings
Part of my life is lies, deciet, greed, envy, and hate
Which so many leaders of our world think is great
Part of my life is all the above
Cause everyday I see sadness and very little love
Part of my life has so much love to give
But I'm catching up with death fast, from the life that I live
Part of my life is wrong nor right
But I need no sympathy, cause I'm living my life.

Is Money Worth Having?
This is a fast and competitive world,
Where the time is money
And the man is in hurry,
Oh, mad man, money is an awful bane,
You’d know that if you weren’t insane.
But alas, it is too late today,
And money if the feeling, the dwelling and the healing,
The love, the friendship,
The life of a man.
Today the progress of your life depends
Upon the way you interact when
You have nothing at all,
And the way you manage,
When you have ‘money and all’,
People say so while I don’t believe it.
The life depends much more on the heart!
A heart and only a beautiful heart,
Where feelings can live,
And love can prevail,
And no amount of money,
Can be dominating there.
A place where no rich or poor exist,
Where money would rust and be valueless there,
I want the world to be brought over there,
And make them LIVE their life, their way,
And not be slaves of MONEY for the day.

The Greatest Love Of All
Some men seek solace
Some take to drink
Some men find knowledge, yeah
At least thats what they think
Some take to violence
Streamlining their dreams
Some sit in silence
And learn what love can mean
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day youll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The load is tough
The path is long
Strewn with rocks, yeah
But youd be wrong, so wrong
One single spark
Can start a prairie fire
When one man speaks truth
He fills this world with pure desire
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day youll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
One day united
One day free
Youll be rewarded
The one true path is unity
Fruit dont fall
Too far from the tree
One day well bathe
In true humility
Much further for truth
Much further to fall
I pray that youll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all

Two Worlds
Like a dream, my life has gone past me
Taken so soon but love burns so true
Love never ending that shines like the stars in the sky
And I sing but so few can hear me
Words from the heart to set your souls free
Time has no distance deep in love
Know everything goes
Everyone knows theres something beyond us
There is a light believe me
Time turns into dust
Cry if you must
But love is the answer
Bringing two worlds together
Who can see the secrets that bind us?
Back to the earth til love rings so true
Eyes of compassion and tears of a deepening heart
I have seen the pain of a cruel world
And reached out a hand for suffering to ease
Bringing some comfort to the tears
Know everything goes
Everyone knows theres something beyond us
There is a light believe me
Time turns into dust
Cry if you must
But love is the answer
Bringing two worlds together into one
A mountain of flowers and the perfume
Floating so high
Hush and the stillness in a million minds
Know everything goes
Everyone knows theres something beyond us
There is a light believe me
Time turns into dust
Cry if you must
But love is the answer
Bringing two worlds together into one

Blame It On The Sun
Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems dear love has gone away.
Where is my spirit?
Im nowhere near it,
Oh yes, my love has gone astray.
But Ill blame it on the sun,
The sun that didnt shine,
Ill blame it on the wind and the trees.
Ill blame it on the time that never was enough,
Ill blame it on the tide and the sea,
But, my heart blames it on me.
Who poured the love out?
What made this bitter doubt?
Is peace not here for me to see?
Wish I could tell you,
But, words wont come for me to speak.
But Ill blame it on the sun,
That didnt fill the sky,
Ill blame it on the birds and the trees.
Ill blame it on the day that ended once too soon,
Ill blame it on the nights that could not be,
But, my heart blames it on me.
(background)...yeh, yeh, yeh, ooh,
Your heart blames it on you this time.

That's The Real Price Of Lust
What's this obsession,
I want more from this life,
It gives me depression,
Then fills me with strife.
We've a life of pleasure,
Our lives are for living,
I have found my life's treasure,
But I have this misgiving.
My wife is my rock,
There's my wonderful kids,
So I need to take stock,
Or my life hits the skids.
We've a beautiful home,
What more could I want,
If I decide to roam,
Will it come back to haunt?
I've a life of bliss,
It is full of love,
So what is it I miss,
Does it come from above?
I don't need money,
There are two fancy cars,
My life is sunny,
My head's in the stars.
I don't really know,
What it is that I seek,
But it's bringing me woe,
It is making me weak.
I love all I've got,
But my life is a chore,
So to stop the rot,
I've got to have more.
What is this feeling,
That's driving me on,
It's sending me reeling,
How I wish it were gone.
Just what is it I want,
What will I find,
Will it come back to haunt,
Or cure my mind?
Am I really that sad,
Seeking what's out of sight,
Don't tell me I'm mad,
For I know I am right.
I'll do it one time,
Then won't ever again,
I'ts a victimless crime,
It won't drive me insane.
I've committed the deed,
Now I ask myself why,
Was there really a need,
Now I just want to die.
Now I've done it I'll perish,
For life is too short,
What you love you must cherish,
Or your mind will distort.
Just then I found out,
Why's it's taken so long,
I'm an adulterous lout,
I know now I've done wrong.
By greed I was driven,
For a bit on the side,
I will not be forgiven,
There is nowhere to hide.
There's nobody wants me,
I've no family or friends,
what really haunts me,
Is my pain never ends.
I think of those I've betrayed,
All those I held dear
Solely because I have strayed,
They are no longer here.
I am out on the street,
Living all on my own,
My demise is complete
They won't let me atone.
Treasure all you have now,
For it cannot be bought,
Remember that vow,
To love what you've got.
If you desire another,
just stop and ponder,
Those cravings can smother,
Your feelings will wander.
It's yourself you'll abhor,
You will know you were wrong,
Why, what for,
When it was there all along.
But now it's too late,
You cannot adjust,
You're a figure of hate,
‘' That's The Real Price Of Lust ‘'
Living In Victory
Do you remember how we used to say
Everything around us are made of clay
We were the kings and the others the fools,
Playing by our rules
Adorned with golden shapes and silver dreams
You count the seconds, every moment seems
Like your lost to the stars up above
Eventhou youre falling
Spoken words made of trust, burning bridges between us,
Turning diamonds into rust
Youre running out of time, the higher that you climb
The deeper you will fall and lose sight of it all
Out of time, on the line
Living in victory
You spread your words, I say devoid of truth
Whats left is fantasy of endless youth
You made a promise, a little white lie
Now youre falling from the sky
Chasing dragons by the moon, burning bridges around you,
Your deepest fears begin to loom
Youre running out of time, the higher that you climb
The deeper you will fall and lose sight of it all
Out of time, on the line
Living in victory
Is it someone that hears you, is it somebody there
All you know and all you will get, lie so deep down inside
Dreams of fortune in the dust, when all your bridges are burnt,
Turning being into lust
Youre running out of time, the higher that you climb
The deeper you will fall and lose sight of it all
Out of time, on the line
Living in sin
Out of time, the higher that you climb
The deeper you will fall and lose sight of it all
Out of time, on the line
Living in victory
Living in victory

Blame It On The Sun

Where has my love gone?
How can I go on?
It seems, dear
Love has gone away
Where is my spirit?
Im nowhere near it
Oh yes, my love has gone astray
But Ill blame it on the sun
The sun that didnt shine
Ill blame it on the wind and the trees
Ill blame it on the time

Ill blame it on the tide and the sea

Wish I could tell you what I am feeling
But words wont come for me to speak
Oh, Ill blame it on the sun

Ill blame it on the birds and the trees
Ill blame it on the day
That ended much too soon
Ill blame it on the nights
That could not be
But my heart blames it on me

Just Like You!
Just like you, to think I would fall...
--------
Sadness and jealousy make you so bitter
Stop hating me because I am living mine
Such a Sorry life such sorry game, such a shame
Stop wasting your time, without living dreams
I felt sorry for you once, but now I wont try
Yes Its just like you, to think I would fall
--------
There was a time you had the world in your hands
The world is mine and strong, Feeling the sun and the warmth
I Wonder why you let the stars out shine your life?
baby, baby Keep on dreaming of better days
------
Yes Its just like you, to think I would fall
------
Dont question my life or act like your the only one..
Sometimes you can see a shooting star
Is it easier for you to live in the clouds?
If the paintings is in the sky? Can you give life a try?
Why Colors all my emotions, with your empty life why?

The Same Old Sun
Eric woolfson - lead vocal
Tell me what to do
Now the light in my life is gone from me
Is it always the same
Is the night never ending
Tell me what to do
All the hopes and the dreams went wrong for me
Theres a smile on my face
But Im only pretending
Taking my life
One day at a time
Cause I cant think what else to do
Taking some time
To make up my mind
When theres no one to ask but you
The same old sun would shine in the morning
The same bright eyes would welcome me home
And the moon would rise way over my head
And get through the night alone
And the same old sun will shine in the morning
The same bright stars will welcome me home
And the clouds will rise way over my head
Ill get through the night on my own
Tell me what to do
Now theres nobody watching over me
If I seem to be calm
Well its all an illusion
Tell me what to do
When the fear of the night comes over me
Theres a smile on my face
Just to hide the confusion
Taking my life
One day at a time
Cause I cant think what else to do
Taking some time
To make up my mind
When theres no one to ask but you
The same old sun would shine in the morning
The same bright eyes would welcome me home
And the moon would rise way over my head
And get through the night alone
And the same old sun will shine in the morning
The same bright stars will welcome me home
And the clouds will rise way over my head
Ill get through the night on my own

What Am I Without Beliefs, Without Hope, Without Dreams?
So many beautiful things and wonders
Surround me
But I, in my isolation and weariness
Cannot see
If you were to build a fine crystal palace
I would compliment every detail
But inside brush it off as a mere shack
Because beautiful to me isn't real
If you bought me a world
You would bring me to tears
Because I won't let myself achieve
Beyond my dream fears
I fear I'm so far gone now
I may be unable to return
I've lost my way
And with every turn
I'm distancing myself
All my life
I've waited for my dreams
Pinned my life on them
But it's not what it seems
I could have them
If I genuinely wanted
My dreams to come true
I could have reached them by now
But no, it's Alex who?
I've failed
If I was worthy of them
I would have found a way
Despite the pain and fear
I wouldn't now say
I've failed
Is it still worth trying?
I guess I'll always say yes to that
But still it seems I'm beyond my sell-by date
And I just don't know what the point is without my dreams
I guess that's why I held onto them for so long
But they're not coming true
And I've only myself to blame
Because if you want something that much in this world
You reach out and grab it
And never let go
But I see now I've been a coward
This whole time I thought I was being strong
By just holding on
But that was a lie
Maybe I wasn't born for this
Maybe I wasn't born for anything
Maybe everything I believe in isn't real
That's what seems to be happening
And without my dreams I am nothing
Not worth anything
To me
At some point, I'm going to lose it completely
Freak out, go nuts, lose my cool, whatever
And then I suppose that will be the final decider
Dreams or this continued
Life or a slow and lifelong death
And I don't have faith in myself right now
I don't believe in this shell of a person
Because right now everything is crumbling around me
All that was real is not
And all that was not real now is
So what am I supposed to do?
If these are all tests to see if I'm worthy
To make me into the person I'm 'meant to be'
Then maybe I'm just going to fail at those tests
Not everyone passes every test in life
I'm not an achiever
I was a believer
But that has been stolen
Science came along and took away imagination
And now I just don't know what to believe
Through it all; through everything
I've always believed in something
'There's always something'
'Religion and Beliefs'
'People I care about'
'The person I'm meant to be'
My dreams.
But they're slipping down the drain faster than water
And I can't seem to reah out and hold on anymore
But without my dreams
What the hell do I do with my life?
Simple answer: die

Dreaming
the alarm rings, the rooster crows
I wake up dreaming of you
yeah, this is how my day goes
in a locker deep inside of me
the silence screams out to be set free
only to be captured once again by you
this time lightning will strike twice
yep last night I was
dreaming of you
when I'm in my dreams
you are the one I see
in my dreams we are together
in my dreams were together and no one cares
in my dreams I'm in your arms where I can softly feel your heart beat
in my dreams you kiss me ever so softly and tell me that you love me
in my dreams there you are loving me
there I am so deeply in thought
there I am loving you with all I've got
in your dreams of me
can you see the starvation in my telling eyes
to be with you
when were finally together
my thirst for love will be quenched
in your sweet love I'll be drenched
my hunger for love will be satisfied
I am deeply in love and mesmerize
deeply in love with you
I love you with a love I never knew possible
a love as strong as titanium steal
now that you are here my search is over
I finally found my four leaf clover
one that loves me for me
and fits me like a warn in hat fits my head
I solemnly swear
my heart for you is, and I'll always be
true, pure, and compatibly right for your's
we beat no longer as two but as one
as I fall harder for you my heart becomes intertwined with yours
life with you together is what I wanted most of all
life with the other part of me is what I strive for
to be in your arms would be amazing
even for just one moment to be
with you I can be me, and you don't try to change me.
for we are the same
for years I have been dreaming
of a world of my design.
with a great man like you to stand by my side
I want to fly away with you, just me and you
I'll be yours for all of time
I love you with all my heart,
and for a hundred more years,
I hope we don't part,
and when we die, I'll meet you in the after life,
and we'll be together,
for eternity times seven
there's only one man I will ever love,
he lives in my dreams.
he calls my name and loves me with all his heart.
I live for my dreams and hope that one day they come true,
until then its lights out so
I can spend one more night with you

I Envy Nothing But One
I don’t envy the angels with wings who can fly
I’ve been soaring in the beautiful sky of your love
I don’t envy the beauty of the rainbow
You’ve made me the most beautiful woman in your love
I don’t envy the freedom of the dolphins swimming in the ocean
I’ve been swimming in the ocean of your loving eyes
I don’t envy Shakespeare for his love poems
I’ve become the greatest poet since I met you
I don’t envy Romeo’s faith to Juliet
You’ve never turned your heart from me, not even once
I don’t envy the softness of the dew the morning has
You’ve been kissing me gently with your tender lips
I don’t envy Monalisa’s wonderful smile Leonardo has
I’ve got one of mine on your face
I don’t envy the sweet sound a harp has
I’ve got a sweeter one when you whisper in my ears
I envy nothing but one
The way you love and make me feel this way

Northern Nightingale
Isolation withers this mind
Bleeds it out from its eternal tomb
Like a killer, the fear creeps into the night
Spreading the virus of indecision in the vain Greek life
Letters of past friends like dust in the wind
Blown away in the frayed memory
How to bow into the sadness of the Beast
When the heart compels me to fight against it
A pair of old dancers witnessing my fall
Reality await my heart at the end of the crash
Efforts of grasping colourful dreams have crossed paths with me
Journeying me into an Italian murder with eyes of the blue deep
I forgot the steps!
No breathing creature looks on this face with caresses…
The white witches have perished in the Dark
Leading the fragments of this life into halt!
Departure! What a sweet resolution
What a foolish absolution…
A dying Utopia trying to resurrect in this mind
A crying Nun encouraging me still to spread the wounded wings
…and fly high!
Angels of the Beastly Stars…
Lead me to the plain of the Soul’s divine Call!

For Both Of You Whom I Love Equally
i love you both
equally and that is the truth that i must reveal
the kiss i kissed you is the same kiss
equally warm as the kiss i have kissed
to the other
the love i give you
is the same love i give
to both of you
you know that
you feel that and so you
do not complain
or whine or murmur
and the other too
who waits for me
when i am with you
understands
feels that
like the way
i spread my warmth on this bed
my smile and laughter in this room
both of you must understand
i have given much more
than anybody can
and for one who give more and much more
must be more than generous more than loving than
anyone can be
on this earth
under the sun
how can i sin then, i who had given more and much
that what is normally required?
from mere pebbles on the rough road of my life
both of you my love
true loves of my heart
shall rise, and rise and rise until you become
my lovely stars
as i watch and stay grounded for having loved
unusually, tirelessly,
exceedingly than what is normally required
my wings with a span as lengthy and wide as the night
shall always remember
the serenity and perfection of these
unusual dual union
the warmth we shared the warmth we all enjoyed
the togetherness that for sometime
society detests

Battles of Fairness
Fairness?
To honesty, fairness is Fair,
To sincerity, fairness is Accuracy,
To integrity, fairness is Absolute!
To the law, fairness is JUSTICE!
To dedicated public servant
FAIRNESS IS MORE THAN A SALARY,
MORE THAN TEARS, MORE THAN JUSTICE,
MORE THAN SWEAT, MORE THAN HONOR,
MORE THAN LOVE and
MORE THAN JUSTICE.
But to the twisted society
FAIRNESS is
BEYOND DOUBT
and BEYOND
QUESTION!
I have no doubt,
I have no question.
The gavel is yours.
But...
you can't stop me
