A Rejuvenated You
Sit and let the world go by,
Dream your dreams, give a sigh,
Let your imagination fly,
Into directions new.
Charm away the gremlin's knock,
All his weird temptations mock,
So that his foundations rock,
And disappear from view.
Feel a real contentment now,
Lift way up that furrowed brow,
And let all of your thoughts allow,
A rejuvenated you.

Imaginations Real
Voices across all the nation,
Echo in my mind.
In the streets,
In the factories,
In the towns.
Living out what imagination made real.
Got to leave the old world behind,
Use a fantasy,
Imagination is real.
Chorus
Im so much in love,
I cant explain,
Imaginations real.
Build your dreams,
And make them strong,
Lmaginations real.
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real.
No solution,
Hatred,
Fear of whats to come.
Dont cry,
Cant you feel it inside,
Cant you see its the only way it can be.
For our past has left us alone,
With a cold reality,
Imagination made real.
Chorus
If you use a dream
To change a mind,
Then imaginations real.
Think with your heart,
And you will see,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real,
Imaginations real.

Call It Evil (demo)
I've been around watching little late shows
Drink a lot of beer
Like playing cards with my friends
Call it evil
Call it pain
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, on my door
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, on my door
That rock and rock, yeah, call it evil
That rock and rock, yeah, call it evil
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door, Yeah!
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door
Going to get as my babe.
It goes knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door
Playing sopwith in the back of my head
What you trying to be crazy?
People look at me, they look at me, but you're dead
Call it evil
Call it pain
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, on my door
It goes knock, knock, knock-knock-knock-knock, come on
Knock-knock-knock-knock, one more
Knock-knock-knock-knock
That rock and rock, yeah, call it evil
That rock and rock, yeah, call it evil
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, on my door

Dream World
By david jones and steve pitts
Walking around with your head in the clouds
You dont care.
Why must you walk when you know
Youre not going anywhere.
Why dont you come out of your dream world
Its not real.
Its not the way it seems to be.
Why dont you come into the real world.
Come with me.
Well share our thoughts, forget the dreams.
Youll see.
Always pretending that everythings fine
When its not.
Why must you lie when you know that
Youll aways get caught.
Why dont you come out of your dream world
Its not real.
Its not the way it seems to be.
Why dont you come into the real world.
Come with me.
Well share our thoughts, forget the dreams.
Youll see.
[instrumental]
Why dont you come out of your dream world
Its not real.
Its not the way it seems to be.
Why dont you come into the real world.
Come with me.
Well share our thoughts, forget the dreams.
Youll see.
Youll see.
Youll see.

Dreaming Reality
In the real world, as in dreams,
Nothing is quite as it seems.
To see what we have never seen,
To be what we have never been,
To shed the chrysalis, learn to fly,
Depart the earth, kiss the sky,
To be reborn, be someone new,
Is this a dream or is it true?
Is my life in fact a dream?
Are things not always as they seem?
Are daylight hours reality,
Or do I dream eternally?
In the dream world or the real,
We cannot know what we can't feel.
What is not a dream by day,
Comes to us at night to stay.
Dreams - vivid colors of life,
Or fleeting, obscure, murky strife?
Façade of reality brings,
To the mind, exquisite things:
Love, regret, memories, cheer,
Imagination, even fear.
The lives we live appear, it seems,
To be a dream within a dream.
A long dream of hopeless sorrow,
I'll dream my life again tomorrow.

Dream Away
(d. warren)
When this world, the real that world youre living in
Just gets too much for you to take
When you find too many troubles on your mind then
Feel just like there is no escape
And it seems your heart has forgotten how to believe
Turn a page in your soul
Theres a place you can go
Close your eyes and let your heart fly free (fly free)
(chorus)
Dream away, dream away
Let imagination light your way
Take you as far as your heart can see
Dream..., dream away, dream away
To a place where hope is shining
Find your silver lining (find your silver lining)
Everything you need is just to dream away
Remember when (remember when)
The dream could take you anywhere (anywhere you want to)
Just to wish (yes) anything could be
When the father sol is one more star you could reach
Take a look in your heart
cause thats where dreams are where start
Anything is real if you just believe (believe...)
(chorus)
All it takes is faith to make your dream come true (ah ah)
And somewhere in this world therell be somebody
To share your dreams with you
(chorus)

Sleep Away The Day
We sleep to forget,
to stop the madness,
to make life just a little more bearable,
to make us feel in control,
to make all the bad people go away,
We sleep for the fun of it,
to make our life in a world of our creation,
to remember those who have left us,
to make us feel our imagination come to life,
to feel the magic of life around us,
We sleep to be things were not,
to make us a doctor
to make us an army man
to make us a police officer
to make us the President/Prime Minister
We sleep to feel alive,
to those who say dreams are not real,
i say to you,
do you not feel in your dreams,
do you not get caught in the moment of a dream,
do you not wish you could control reality,
do you not wish for the best in life,
That is why we dream,
to fulfill our wishes,
it is the one place we are gods,
so i say next time you want to give up and die
i say...
Sleep Away The Day!

Hey Little Girl
I would walk a million miles to see ya
Id drive through the pouring rain
Id dive into your deepest ocean
To still have you in my arms again..
Ill be there when youre feeling lonely
Ill be there til the end of time
Ill stand beside you baby if you break down
Aint no mountain that I wont climb..
Yeah...
Hey little girl, come on lets..
Knock on love
Come into my little world,
Coz if I touch you there,
Ill touch you here,
And all your troubles will disappear, little girl.
Come on lets.. knock on love all night long.
I would fly through any kind of weather
I would swim across the stormy seas
Id rode down any river just to get to you
Id do anything that you please...
Hey little girl, come on lets..
Knock on love, come into my little world,
Coz if I touch you there, itll touch you here,
And all your troubles will disappear,little girl..
Come on lets.. knock on love
All night long......
I would do anything, anything that gets you through the night!
I would give everything,
To have you the rest of my life!
Hey little girl, come on lets.. knock on love, come into my little world,
Coz if I touch you there, itll touch you here,
And all your troubles will disappear, little girl..little girl
Come on lets.. knock on love

Dreaming
May I enter your dream
so that I may know
just where your dream
has you go?
Maybe you're flying
high in the air.
I wouldn't hold you back.
I'd just be there
to catch you dear
in case you fall
and ease your dream
and silence your call
that echoes to me
as you dream fitfully.
When morning arrives
and dreams are gone,
I'll soothe your brow
and look upon
another day to have you near,
another day to hear you say
'I love you so. I love you dear.'
And fitfull dreams will have found a way
to disappear through your day.
If you dream I'll be there
inside your darkened reverie.
For I'm the other part of you
and you're only a dream away from me.

In The Real World
(jennings/kerr)
In dreams we do so many things
We set aside the rules we know
And fly the world so high
In great and shining rings
If only we could always live in dreams
If only we could make of life
What, in dreams, it seems
But in the real world
We must say our goodbyes
No matter if the love will live
It will never die
In the real world
There are things that we cant change
And endings come to us
In ways that we cant rearrange
I love you, and you love me
But sometimes we must let it be
In the real world
In the real world
When we were dreaming heart to heart
I wish that we had stayed right there
For when the dreamers do awake
The dreams do disappear
In the real world
There are things that we cant change
And endings come to us
In ways that we cant rearrange
I love you, and you love me
But sometimes we must let it be
In the real world
In the real world

Butterfly's Dream
I'm having a butterfly's dream
Sealed off from the real world
Shielded from the storm
Yet I feel at home
Having a butterfly's dream
I'm having a butterfly's dream
Looking out, the world looking in
Imprisoned by nature, all alone
Yet I feel at home
Having my butterfly's dream
I can see the pretty colors come and go
The sun is shining, the moon a glow
I want all that to be a part of me
I want my dreaming to become a reality
I want to feel the fresh ocean breeze
I want to rest on flowers, rest on trees
I want to be part of the world that everybody sees
I feel the light flashing in
The air fills my cocoon all too soon
My wings search to spread towards the sun
And lift me to my new home-All alone
On my own to face the storm
I should have known
A dream is nothing but a dream

Do You Believe In Imagination?
Do you believe in imagination?
That makes you sore across the sky
Do you believe in make believe
Where you can be a Hero or a spy
Do you think you can show the world?
And make them understand your dreams
Do they wait in baited breath?
To hear your muse your fantasy
Do they look upon your face?
And see the ecstasy
That lies for every in your dreams
Dormant to be free
You think, and then sigh
Oh no not I
It’s impossible to dream
But then they tap upon your door
Asking please share all your dreams
You smile and think
It’s time to bare
Your inner truer being

Knock, knock
Who’s there?
It’s me the breeze
Want to caress your cheeks.
Knock, knock
Who’s there?
It’s me the full moon, roll up the blinds
Want to flood you with my silver light.
Knock, knock
Who’s there?
It’s me the pigeon, want you to know
I understand what its like to feel low.
Knock, knock
I just listen to tick tick of the clock.
Swallow some bile.
Don’t answer for a while.
It was very very still.
Got up to take a pill.
Felt I was not alone.
Stopped to moan.
He stood with his kind eyes.
I smiled, Lord a real good try…

They say dreams never do come true.
They say dreams never do come true..
But they are wrong, I say they do
I dream of violence, I dream of hurt
I dream of children, they live in dirt
I dream of you, I dream of me
I dream of how this was never meant to be
I dream of my feelings, I dream of my thoughts
I dream of these things, I dream of them lots
I dream of my loved ones, I dream of the dead
I dream of these thoughts, exploding my head
I dream of you yelling, I dream of you crying
I dream of you hiding, I dream of you lying
I dream of you hurting, I dream of you shutting me out of your life
I dream of the of the only one I can trust, I dream of my knife.
They say dreams never do come true,
But they are wrong, I say they do.

Only A Dream
Standing by the elevator
Feeling gloomy and down
Waiting for the flashing light
To lift me up from the ground
Then the elevator opened
And I saw her standing there
She had to be a young executive
She looked so corporate and clean
And I thought Id seen her somewhere before
On the cover of a magazine
I didnt think shed even look at me
Or bother to glance my way
But she actually smiled at me and said
Hi-ya handsome, have a good day
Chorus:
I must be dreaming if she looks at me
I gotta be dreaming, is it a fantasy
Now Ive got positive emotions
Buzzing round every molecule in me
I gotta be dreaming, is it reality
But over and over I live that memory
Was it real or only a dream
La la la la
Was it my imagination playing tricks on me
When she looked my way
Maybe she took me for somebody else
Whatever it was, it made my day, hey hey
I wake up in the morning
Smiling with anticipation
Suddenly I feel alive
Face the world with expectation
I must be dreaming this world is a better place
Was my imagination playing tricks on me
Was it real or only a dream?
I see a great big sunset
Where only clouds used to be
Was it all an illusion, is it fantasy
If its just a dream
Its good enough for me, yeah yeah
Waiting by the elevator
Feeling optimistic and keen
Waiting for my executive goddess
To appear as if in a dream
Then the elevator opened
She was talking to another guy
And I tried to say hello to her
But I failed to even catch her eye
Then everybody crowded inside
And I sadly stood my ground
Thinking lifes just like that elevator
It takes you up and brings you down
Chorus
Was it only an illusion
Was it real or only a dream

No hesitation--no heart of gold

Dawn
Do you know what it's like to feel dead at dawn?
To have slept sleep fragmented and feel battered and torn?
Do you know what its like to feel cast aside?
To feel that you're nothing, no arms open wide?
Do you know how that emptiness feels?
When your own weird imaginings become more than dreams?
Do you know that weird feeling of what's going on?
When all seems a nonsense and reality's gone?
Do you know how rejection hits sharp at the heart?
And makes you feel worthless and not know where to start?
Do you think of the other or just of yourself?
When things get so painful and you're out of your depth?
Do you ever once ponder on just how I feel?
Or do you once think that my feelings are real?
Or do you define things in a different way
And just wish that those things would all go away?
Here we agree more than you'd know
These feelings I have I just wish they would go
But wish as I may it's not worth the thought
They stay there, they haunt me and torture and taunt
But, then, as you say, its my problem not yours
So, all I can do is not enter the door
That once had a welcome and feelings inside
And so it is now that we have to decide
If we should move forwards or give it all up
It's so simple you see when enough is enough.

It's a Weird World...Weird World
Hey, hey, hey!
The sun is over the city but it's an orange day
There is reason for looking up but I'm feeling down
You see Ive got to catch a plane, won't buy a ticket
'Cause it's hard to just stop when you're spinning around
Its a weird world dont you know it?
Its a weird world and it wont slow down
Its a weird world no matter how you roll it
Hey, hey, hey! Sweet baby
Theres a way
Just stand up and fight it
Hey, hey, hey!
Never give up, and dont let it wear out (now)
Your love
It's a weird world...Yeah
Sent a message to a G.I.
In the desert
Said thank you man for bringing another dawn
Back here it's her and me
And we're having our first baby
And he's out there taking them on (on)
Its a weird world and I know you know it
Its a weird world and it wont slow down
Its a weird world no matter how you roll it
Hey, hey, hey! Sweet baby
Theres a way
Just stand up and fight it
Hey, hey, hey!
Never give up, dont let it wear out (now)
Your love
Im closing my eyes but Im starting to see
While hes looking at you, shes looking at me
The only thing he does is just keep me away from you
Sure part of this place would cheer if I died
Dont let them take away your beautiful smile
Take away your beautiful smile
Take away your beautiful smile
Hey, hey, hey! Sweet baby
Theres a way
Just stand up and fight it (Yeah, ye-ah!)
Hey, hey, hey! (sweet baby!) Sweet baby
Theres a way
For you to decide it
Hey, hey, hey!
Never give up, dont let it wear out (now)

Hey, hey, hey!

A Girl In Hell
A girl was bathing in hell
Said she wanted me dead
So I could be with her in hell
The words she had said
Kept reverberating in my head
Give in to lust, she had said
Let not your world be lost
For Heaven knows we'll soon be dust
And your world will all be gone.
What could it all mean?
This girl I see in my dreams
And yet I do not know
I have wondered to a world unknown
This imagination in my mind have I create
I drowse and I slumber yet I do not sleep
Is this another fantasy of my dream?
She had come and gone with my love
Those hurtful moment I felt I could cry
I could find no tears, I only heaved a sigh
I want to be righteous, I want to fly with Christ
But this girl keeps bringing me back to my vice.
