Reality
My will has deserted,
Must have found another place
To agonize with desire,
Like another distorted face....
Fading, I am fading
Fast, very fast,
I am powerless to resist,
Realizing that I sacrifice bliss...
Turn around, no, don't go!
Trust awhile, -stay, play, play!
Repair the ruination
Relax, and wait a day...

Stay Awhile
Im touching your face and i
Cant get very far
You travel a million miles
Always in the stars
And crossing the clouds
A fading moon
Whispered its goodbye
But as it starts to die
Stay awhile
Show your love
Child amoung the stars
Just stay awhile
Lay with me
Tell me who you are
Ive never believed in much
What can I be worth ?
Im always a shooting star
Falling down to earth
I prayed in my heart
Youd never know
Feelings wouldnt show
But now before you go
Stay awhile
Show your love
Child amoung the stars
Just stay awhile
Lay with me
Tell me who you are
And crossing the clouds
A fading moon
Whispers its goodbye
But as it starts to die
Stay awhile
Show your love
Child amoung the stars
Just stay awhile
Lay with me
Show me who you are
Just stay awhile

Face Up Face Down
Welcome all my honored guests
To the utimate duel of the best of the best
At my invitation you come to compete
For the honor of suffering the final defeat
Isn't it grand what I've managed to do
By kidnapping those closest to you
I've taken their souls to lay on the line
In a winner take all duel for all time
Let's play the game
I'm sure you all know how
But watch yourselves my foolish friends
You're all in my world now
Face up, Face down. Attack or Defend
Face up, Face down. This battle's to the end
Face up, Face down. Stay on guard
Face up, Face down. Play your strongest card
My arena waits us all
I built it myself, it is just down the hall
I wish this day hadn't come so fast
You see I truly wanted your pain to last
Face up, Face down. Attack or Defend
Face up, Face down. This battle's to the end
Face up, Face down. Stay on guard
Face up, Face down. Play your strongest card
All your cunning strategies, all the tricks you try
Look like merely child's play to my Millennium Eye
Ha, ha, ha, ha! Your turn Yugi-boy
What's wrong now you look so sad?
Losing your soul doesn't feel that bad
Those you love have told me so
And soon my friends, you too will know
Let's play the game
I'm sure you all know how
But watch yourselves my foolish friends
You're all in my world now
Face up, Face down. Attack or Defend
Face up, Face down. This battle's to the end
Face up, Face down. Stay on guard
Face up, Face down. Play your strongest card
Face up, Face down. Attack or Defend
Face up, Face down. This battle's to the end
Face up, Face down. Stay on guard
Face up, Face down. Play your strongest card

Mother And Child, The Strongest Bond
So broken, broken spirit, broken heart, shattered heart, broken trust, must be strong, for herself, and the life of her child, to protect herself and her child, to survive, nowhere to go, no home, nowhere to hide, so exposed, how? You ask? How does she keep on going? In hope for someone to love her without breaking her down so badly, and for her child's sake, how? She asks, how can i trust someone, when so many people burned me? And put me down so many times? Nothing's there anymore, no feeling, just hope, but hope's fading fast, she can only dream, but the dreams are fading fast too, teaching her child to trust no one, but she doesn't know how long she'll last, the only reason why she's hung on so tightly is for her child, her child, the strongest bond is the love between a mother and child........

Midnight
They put away the DDT now
But gave metal to the sea
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
The only eagle, only tree
Within a desert that was green
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
Midnight
Draws ever near
Daylight
Is fading so fast
It's so close to midnight
Midnight
The melting ice will fuel the sea
By burning gold from ancient tree
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
This is progress, this is sin
Injecting poison in her skin
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day
Midnight
Draws ever near
Daylight
Is fading so fast
It's so close to midnight
Midnight

O'.. There Comes My Fiancee!
All the teen boys playing in the street
Stop their play and suddenly turn into adult!
On that street side in the fading sunlight …! !
Even the swaying elderly men
Tries to steady them throwing the stick!
On that street side in the fading sunlight …! !
The ape which jumps tree to tree
Made its mind to sit on the wall watching!
On that street side in the fading sunlight …! !
Even the drivers of speedy vehicles stop
And look keenly at the sides of speed breaker!
On that street side in the fading sunlight …! !
All the teen age girls are disgusted,
And discouraged at their sight on the platform!
On that street side in the fading sunlight …! !
O'.. I see! There comes my fiancee!
On that street side in the fading sunlight …! !

The Fear of Returning to Life
I hear your voice,
Buzzing and humming in the distance,
Distorted though you're in front of me.
I hear you as a water-marked copy—
Separated by a barrier of letters and numbers,
Realization becoming fainter and fainter,
Fading.
My hand severs into multiple dimensions,
Splintering before my eyes in assorted colors,
Shifting like a holofoil card when tilted.
The light echoes against the ceiling—
Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth
Until I can no longer collect the signal,
Until the signal bleeds out
Into the air—against a wreck of disoriented thoughts
That sink the worry of trouble.
Fading
Is, in this moment, a sense of solace,
An uninhibited freedom—
A percolating swell of ecstasy.
I'm overcome by it,
By the belief of impending bliss—
A bliss I believe so whole-heartedly
That I'm anxiously declaring it imagination.

We Live So Fast
Please dont ask me to stay
Im leaving this town
Dont worry now
Believe me as I believe that
Luck is on my side
The future is mine
If I can find
A way through these strange days of my life
We live so fast
Motion, motion
No time to waste
Use it, use it
We live so fast
Motion, motion
Make the first step and reach out for tomorrow
We live so fast
Motion, motion
We cant stand still
Move it, move it
We live so fast
Motion, motion
Move out of my way its time to make it happen
The streets deserted and cold
Theyre not paved with gold
But I dont care
For those who think young will still survive
Making their move
Hoping to prove
That they can face
This big city, small world, big time
We live so fast
Motion, motion
No time to waste
Use it, use it
We live so fast
Motion, motion
Make the first step and reach out for tomorrow
We live so fast
Motion, motion
We cant stand still
Move it, move it
We live so fast
Motion, motion
Move out of my way its time to make it happen
But now I know their ways
I found my place
Saw their true face
Theres nothing to stay for so Ill go
Ill pick up the phone
Still searching for home
We life so fast
Alone but not lonely I move on
We live so fast
Motion, motion
No time to waste
Use it, use it
We live so fast
Motion, motion
Make the first step and reach out for tomorrow
We live so fast
Motion, motion
We cant stand still
Move it, move it
We live so fast
Motion, motion
Move out of my way its time to make it happen

To go to a party sit down and wait,

D. J.
Im home, lost my job, and incurably ill
You think this is easy, realism
Ive got a girl out there, I suppose
I think shes dancing
Feel like dan dare lies down
I think shes dancing, what do I know?
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Cant turn around no, cant turn around, no, oh, ooh
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Cant turn around no, cant turn around, no, oh no
I am a d.j., I am what I play
I got believers (kiss-kiss)
Believing me, oh
One more, weekend, of lights and evening faces
Fast food, living nostalgia
Humble pie or bitter fruit
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Cant turn around no, cant turn around no, ooh
I am a d.j., I am what I say
Cant turn around no, cant turn around, ooh
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Ive got believers (kiss-kiss)
Believing me
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Cant turn around no, cant turn around
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Cant turn around no, cant turn around
I am a d.j., I am what I play
Can turn around no (kiss-kiss)
Time flies when youre having fun
Break his heart, break her heart
He used to be my boss and millions of puppet dancer
I am a d.j., and Ive got believers
Ive got believers
Ive got believers
Ive got believers in me
Ive got believers
I am a d.j., I am what I play
I am a d.j.

Untrust
Trust not the mirror
If it’s a picture of horror
And trust not the figures that smile at you.
Trust not the peer
who brings you the fear.
And Trust not the wine
that make you so fine
Trust not the games
that play with you to fame
Trust them not
If they play on you to shame
Trust not the past
nor the shadows it cast
For it disfigures fast
And ‘you’ ravishing would last
Trust not the prayers
That farewells your pyre
But respect the fire
That burns you to thin air
And last but not the least
Trust not this untrust that takes
you to your quest….

Even Song
Red old eyes, now where you from
You catch me every day
Colours hide not even song
It's all been washed away
Sun stop going down
Come out again
Stop fading out
Awake again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Blues old face, you finally come around
And talking in your sleep
Buried secrets and fiery showdowns
Lost days inbetween
It's all the same
Let it go before it gets too late
Don't play our game
Sun stop going down
Come out again
Stop fading out
Awake again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Sun is going down
Come out again
Don't feel so proud
Get straight again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
It's all the same
Let it go before it gets too late
Don't play our game
Sun stop going down
Come out again
Stop fading out
Awake again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Sun is going down
Come out again
Don't feel so proud
Get straight again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Sun stop going down
Come out again
Stop fading out
Awake again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Sun is going down
Come out again
Don't feel so proud
Get straight again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down

Fading out done life fast
Fated phase shows the Truth
Final play, one to part
Frail end fearing the left
Fact is to face the end
Finals on life's ground lost
Firm yet birthed a new match

Wait For Me (Live Version)
Words & Music: D. Hall
Midnight hour almost over
Time is running out for the magic pair
I know you gave the best that you have
But one more chance
couldn't be all that hard to bear.
Wait for me please
Wait for me
Alright, I guess
that's more than I should ask
Wait for me please
Wait for me
Although I know the light is fading fast.
You could go either way
Is it easier to stay
I wonder what you'll do
when your chance rolls around
But you gotta know how much I want to keep you
When I'm away I'm afraid it will all fall down.
Love is what it does and ours is doing nothing
But all the time we spent
It must be good for something
Please forgive all the disturbance I'm creating
But you got a lot to learn if you think that I'm not waiting for you.

St. Judy's Comet
Words & music by paul simon
Oo, little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime's winding past
And though i know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
You're fading fast, oh fading fast
Won't you run come see st. judy's comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see st. judy's comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake
Oh, when you wake, wake
Little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy
Won't you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies
Well i sang it once and i sang it twice
I'm going to sing it three times more
I'm going to stay 'til your resistance
Is overcome
'cause if i can't sing my boy to sleep
Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb
Look so dumb
Won't you run come see st. judy's comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see st. judy's comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake
Oh, when you wake, wake
Little boy, little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy, little boy
Won't you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies
Oo, little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past

You're fading fast, oh fading fast

Slipping Away
Yeah
La dee dah dee dah yeah
La ooh, yeah
Oh ooh, yeah
So far, so far
You're slipping away, away
Slipping away from the live and the love we made
Baby, I'm so afraid
So far, so far, so far
Slipping away, away
Slipping right out of my grasp and you're fading fast
It seems... you know you're slipping away from me
I keep on reaching and I, I keep on trying
But you never even hold me
And it seems like you don't know me baby
I keep on yearning and I
I guess I'm learning that it's just a losing fight
'Cause there's no passion in your eyes
No, no, no, no babe
Yeah-eah
Chorus
I keep denying that our, our love is dying
But it's all a big charade and it's a fruitless game to play
I can't remember when you, you last were tender
And it's always touch and go
The silence chills me to the bone, yeah
Chorus
Away, away, away, away
Yeah
Hey, yeah
Further, further
Ooh yeah
You're so far
(Time after time I reach for you
I try and I try but you're so aloof
Where is the boy that you used to be?
Baby you're slipping away from me)
You're so far
(Repeat)
(So far, so far
Slipping away, away)
Slipping away from what we had
Truly I just don't understand
(So far, so far, so far
Slipping away, away)
You're slipping right out of my grasp and you're fading so fast
It seems... you know you're slipping away from me
Baby, oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So far
Yeah
Baby, baby, baby, baby I'm so afraid
Oh, where?
So far... so far

Were Sons Of Our Fathers
it seems that family values have changed since I was a kid, at least I remember it that way...
When I grow up to be a man
Like my father was when I was young
I hope I can make him so proud of me
Proud enough to call me his son
What makes these people so different now
What makes these times so strange?
Seems most people got most everything they need
How come we see this change
Our sons and daughters seem to be beyond our control
Their smile is fading fast, theyre losing their soul
When will we ever learn, yet Im a believer
When I was a boy, did we have more respect?
This world seemed a nicer place to be
But time slowly passes and one day you look around
You hardly recognise what you see
Our sons and daughters seem to be beyond our control
Their smile is fading fast, theyre losing their soul
Now when will we ever learn, yet Im a believer
Theyre beyond our control
Were all sons of our fathers
Sometimes I feel like mine
And I can hear him say, the things I say
Seems all things come around in time
Why these things happen well never know
Guess that was then and this is now
We always knew that change was gonna come
But I want to go back, please tell me how
Our sons and daughters seem to be beyond our control
Their smile is fading fast, theyre losing their soul
When will we ever learn, yet Im a believer

Granparent's Part I
I feel you slipping away
So try to stay near
I see you fading fast
So try to stay clear
Try to be still
Try to remain
Try to stay here
So I can stay sane
If you go, take me with you
Don't leave me behind
I need you forever
Because there's not enough time
To give back what you have given
and love you enough
To memorize you...
and love you enough

Stay Awhile
(t. britten/g. lyle)
Producers: chris lord-alge, tina turner and roger davies
Album: whats love got to do with it (93)
So who are you gonna turn to when the light is fading
Who are you gonna run to when the rain sets in
Who do you come to when the blues comes calling
Who are you trying to fool coming around here again
Yes, I heard you found a new plaything
Right now it seems you need a friend
Why dont you stay a while
Just till the night is through
Tell me youre lonely, baby, Im lonely, too
So stay awhile
Ill stay ahile
All I ever wanted was a shoulder to lean on
And all you ever wanted was a dream that would last
Promises made in the heat of the moment
I know I never told you that was too much to ask
But it wont take much gentle persuasion
To make you remember, make me forget
You may not be a knight in white satin
Maybe the best was all in the past
Turn the lights low, lay down beside me
Just till the dawn, I dont want you to go
Tell me you want me
Baby, I need you too
Stay awhile

The Firefly's Fascination
On the flight of the moon to aflame the night,
A firefly's looking up to the light he much adored,
Seem a light of a firefly that he's longing for.
Her brilliant dancing fire,
The endless flashes of light,
Her dazzling face he desire
It was so bright,
so bright.
All he did by night was to look above
He never let his light fade just awhile,
He hopes to be noticed by her love,
Just see his light, then shine and smile.
The luminous rays of the skies,
The beautiful stars at night,
Her shining diamond eyes
It was so bright,
so bright.
Nights and more nights had passed,
All he did by night was to look above
The firefly's light was fading too fast
When he see the truth about his love
The dazzling light did shine no more
The brilliant fire slowly died by night
The luminous sky sings its last roar
The dying light,
fading light.
On the shine of the sun to aflame the day,
A firefly's looking down to shed his tears
when he learned that the one he love
Was nothing but far away star.
