Soul Warfare
If I was someone else
Would you still say what youre saying?
If I were someone else
Would you conscience be straying?
Soul warfare
Its all that I can do
To put my faith in you
Its all that I can give
To be a fugitive
Its all that there can be
Not wanting to be free
Its all that I can take
These fifteen days awake
Its more than I can hide
My needs cant be denied
A million miles or more
Cant keep me from your door
There is no place to run
Until the fightings done
More bloodshed every day
The soul wars here to stay
If I want something more
It could be you wholl be paying
As this is my soul war
These are the rules well be playing
Its not for you to say
Which district Ill be destroying
You could never know
The tactics Ill be employing
You could be part of me
Forget the wealth youre forsaking
Your strategy is clear
My soul is there for the taking
Its all that I can do
To put my faith in you
Its all that I can give
To be a fugitive
Its all that there can be
Not wanting to be free
Its all that I can take
These fifteen days awake
Its more than I can hide
My needs cant be denied
A million miles or more
Cant keep me from your door
There is no place to run
Until the fightings done
More bloodshed every day
The soul wars here to stay

Million Miles Away
Friday night, Id just got back
I had my eyes shut, was dreaming about the past
I thought about you while the radio played
Should have got loaded but for some reason I stayed
I started drifting to a different place
I realized I was falling off the face of the world
And there was nothing there to bring us back
cause youre a million miles away
A million miles away
And theres nothing there to bring us back today
Todayoh no
I took a ride and I went downtown
The streets were empty, there was no one around
I went to places that we used to go
Seen all the places that we used to know
Im at the wrong end of the looking glass
Im trying to hold on to the hands of the past and you
And theres nothing there to bring us back
cause youre a million miles away
A million miles away
And theres nothing there to bring us back today
Todayoh no
cause youre million miles away
A million miles away
Just a million miles away
A million miles away
And theres nothing there to bring us back today
Todayayayoh no

Club Soul City
Pack up your bags
Dont look back
Theres a little place
Out cross the the railroad tracks
If youre broken-hearted
And you dont know what to do
But they got a place down there thats just for you
Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah
Theres a waitress at the back bar
Goes with the the guy that runs the place
Shes got hair like a weeping willow
And tears running down her face
Shes seen a lot of guys like you coming around
Looking for something that theyve lost
Or trying to lose something that theyve found
Down at
Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah
So if youre down on your spirit
And there aint no-one who cares
If youre lost and youre lonely
You wont be lonely down there
You cant miss it, its just up the highway
On the front door theres a sign that says
Restricted to the losing kind
Club soul, club soul city, yeah yeah yeah
Club soul, club soul city, oh yeah

A Million Miles From Home
There's a distant radio station
Way, way out there...
Plays in my mind, all the time,
Native American,
Western song and rhyme-
Sounds of a voice calling
From a true old friend,
Whispering wind
Blown in from heaven
Persistently pushes through me
Alluring awe and
Beckoning beauty...
God,
I feel a million million
Miles from home.
And very often a way out there
In the desert
So all alone,
It causes me,
More than anything else,
To seek You.
This desert so stark and so real
My soul feels the wind
As it touches the pure sky of blue.
And still-always it seems-
I'm a million miles from Home.
It's why I can't stay still,
Following the spirits will.
I travel with nothing more
Than what I wear,
Old worn boots
Faded jacket
Hat for shade
Canteen for thirst,
I'll trust the love of strangers
With food to share,
I've no earthly roots
No place to stay and sit
Memories wander and fade
As I continue to seek
The Last and the First.
And still-always it seems-
I'm a million miles from Home.
I feel it all so deep
In my weary bones.
Will I ever make it?
Does the wind-spirit lead me there?
Blind I look,
Deaf I listen...
Only my heart seems to truly understand
I've nowhere else to go,
Whether a million miles away
Or a million days
I will continue searching throughout this land
Until I find I know,
What yet I do not know.

Mechanical Man
I do everything he never would
Im mechanical man
When I say I understood,
I only knew where to stand
But Ill be there for you
When your worlds on a wire
My mechanical moves
Fit the mood you desire
Hope I will recreate the thrill
Take your body by the hand
Shake your soul awake
Dropping science at your feet
I whisper low and sweet
If you wanna see me angry I can be
Lose a number miss a key and I will be
I can read your mind
But still believe your lies
I can dance but Ill never understand
Mechanical man
Hope I will recreate the thrill
Take your body by the hand
Shake your soul awake
Shake your soul awake
But Im not perfect after all
I still get jealous when he calls
Somethings wrong, pride was never in the plan
Turn me in for a brand new mechanical man
Hope he will recreate the thrill
Shake your soul awake
Shake your soul awake
You can get me wet
Scream when youre upset
Ill never understand you
Im programmed to forget
You can get me wet
Scream when youre upset
Ill never understand you
Im programmed to forget
Shake your soul awake

Love Is A Lonely Place Without You
Love is a lonely place without you
I know Im not alone
I should not be afraid
Cause I hear your voice
And I know youre there beside me
And so I give my heart
I live to love again
But I cant let go
Of the way I feel about you
Love is a lonely place without you
I miss you
And youre almost here
And Im almost touching you
Love is a place I have to hide away
Ill never love this way again (again)
If love was ever true
I know it was with you
Cause you touch my soul and
You stay with me forever
No tears, no said goodbyes
There are no reasons why
But Im holding on
I believe in love eternal
Love is a lonely place without you
I miss you
And youre almost here
And Im almost touching you
Love is a place I have to hide away
Ill never love this way again (again)
Though Im moving on
Im still holding on - holding on - holding on
Love is a lonely place without you
I miss you
And youre almost here
And Im almost touching you
Love is a place I have to hide away
Ill never love this way again (again)
Love is a lonely place - a lonely place (x4)

The Soul Snatcher!
When I awoke from midnight sleep,
I heard a rustling creature creep
And on my bed, its vigil keep,
Till my eyes opened wide...
I saw the demon crawl around,
Regardless of its stirring sound,
As if by fear it wasn't bound
And saw no cause to hide...
So there we were, now both awake,
With me amazed, for goodness sake
And my weak heart began to ache
And beat so fast inside...
'Hello, old soul, I'm here to trade!
I know from righteousness you've strayed,
But I've a deal that could be made,
A contract to abide...'
'My soul is mine and mine alone,
Not even God my soul could own,
Yet while God rules upon His throne,
I'll trust in Christ who died...'
'But I can grant so many things!
Why be one of God's underlings?
Come sign and share each joy life brings!
A Princess for a bride! '
'What use are trinkets of this Earth?
Not one has proved eternal worth!
For years I gave each one wide berth,
As each must be denied...'
'Denied? What foolish talk is that?
I'm tempted just to leave you flat!
But since you haven't made me scat,
Perhaps you're pleased I tried...'
'Begone, foul spirit, stay no more!
Begone, I say and close the door!
I live by grace and not by law
And conscience is my guide...'
'So be it, lonely child of grace,
Now old with such a forlorn face,
With none to kiss, none to embrace...
Sleep well, alone... each night...'

Take Me Away
(steve bogard, jeff stevens)
My body burns like theres a desert deep in me
A thirsty soul so unsatisfied
But there you are like a river to the sea
The one chance I have to change my life
(a)darling, take me away from (e) here
Make it seem like were a million miles away
Another time, another place
(a)make me a different (e) man
Move me farther than Ive ever been before
Show me that theres something more
Sometimes I feel like Im trapped inside myself
Spinning wheels up and down, round and round
Going nowhere just like everybody else
With no touch, no sight, no sound
(a)but you could take me away from (e) here
Make it seem like were a million miles away
Another time, another place
(a)make me a different (e) man
Move me farther than Ive ever been before
Show me that theres something more
Give me hopes and dreams to fill my head
Push my heart so I can fly again
Take me away from here
Make it seem like were a million miles away
Another time, another place
Make me a different man
Move me farther than Ive ever been before
Show me that theres something more
Take me away from here
Take me away from here
Take me away from here

But youre a lifetime away from your home or youre here

Youre a million miles away or youre here

Speak to me like I speak to you
Dream of me like I dream of you

Love & Emotion
Theres nowhere to run from the heat of the sun
Theres nowhere to hide from your face
Black is the night, wont you show me the light
The road only leads to one place
For your love and emotion
I promise you love till I die
Faith as deep as the ocean
Keeps me believin youre alive
Theres nowhere to run from the things that weve done
Theres nowhere to hide from the truth
Something is wrong when my woman is gone
My world aint no good without you
For your love and affection
I give you my soul for all time
Faith as high as a mountain
Keeps me believin youre mine
Oh,oh
Oh,oh
For your love and emotion
I promise you love till I die
Faith as deep as the ocean
Keeps me believin youre alive

Soul Deep
(thompson)
Well darlin I dont know much
But I know I learned so much
My life depends on your touch
For my love is a river running soul deep
Way down inside me its soul deep
Too big to hide and it cant be denied
My love is a river running soul deep
Id put myself to death for ya
Just to show I adore ya
Nothin I wouldnt do for ya
Cause my love is a river running soul deep
Way down inside me its soul deep
Too big to hide and it cant be denied
My love is a river
All I ever really want to be
Depends on your love for me
Baby believe me
If you should leave me
Id be nothing but an empty shell
And you know darn well I can tell though
And all I ever really want to be
Depends on your love for me
Baby believe me
If you should leave me
Id be nothing but an empty shell
You know darn well I can tell though
Well I dont know much
But I know I learned so much
My live depends on your touch
For my love is a river running soul deep
Way down inside me its soul deep
Its too big to hide and it cant be denied
My love is a river running soul deep
My love is a river running soul deep
Way down inside me its soul deep
Its too big to hide and it cant be denied
My love is a river running soul deep

She
Bring back that 'hair-down', unguarded mystery
I liked it better when your tightrope walked on me
Board up my window, prepare for a hurricane
You have a way of breaking through my barricade
You give me all-new games to play
You set me soul free
Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold
She set my soul free
She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you
Was my intention to take control again?
Somehow you got me on the ropes of my own plan
To turn up the volume and make you dance for me
Release some pressure so that I can turn and see
Spirit manifests as 'She'
You set me soul free (you set my soul free)
Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold
She set my soul free (she set my soul free)
She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you
Like a flower
I can see but I can't feel
Oh yeah
And nothing that you do could ever make me run, run away from you
I never knew, I never knew she could
She set my soul free
Now every word that she speaks to me is pure gold
She set my soul free (she set my soul free)
She give me love, give me hope, give me strength to bear my faults for you

Give Back My Soul
Give back my soul,
You took it away one day,
Or I had given you,
On rent some day,
Give back my soul.
Life had happened before,
Life had happened since,
Life will happen henceforth,
But give back my soul.
The soul was my property sole;
The loss I would not bear
I have nobody to console,
Please give back my soul.
I want those happy days back,
I want those serene times back,
I want those joyous memories back,
Give back my Soul.
I know you won't come back,
For you have a life wonderful;
I know you won't look back,
For you have a companion cheerful;
Give back my soul.
Now people too say,
You were soulful once,
What happened?
You look soulless now,
Give back my soul.
My soul was mine.
I trusted you mine.
I gave you my soul.
Give back my Soul.
The body is dying.
The soul is flying.
The eternity shall happen;
For the sake of,
You and Mine.

Why Would You Want To Open Your Door?
Why would I want to be a part of your life,
Right now?
When you had...
Never been around to give me reason.
And,
Why would I want to be a part of your life,
Right now?
When gone is that season.
And why,
Would I try now...
When I've been denied,
To love you...
Then.
And why,
Would you want to open your door?
When you said never see you,
Again.
Or anymore!
I remember then...
Loving you was all I wanted.
When I thought you wanted love too,
For you to begin.
I remember then...
When my nights and days were haunted,
Wanting just to have you,
As my only friend...
To depend on!
And why,
Would I try now...
When I've been denied,
To love you...
Then.
And why,
Would you want to open your door?
When you said never see you,
Again.
Or anymore.
Why would I want to be a part of your life,
Right now?
When you had...
Never been around to give me reason.
And why,
Would I try now...
When I've been denied,
To love you...
Then.
And why,
Would you want to open your door?
When you said never see you,
Again.
Or...
Anymore!

Set Me Free
You operate and motivate on synthetic fuel
you're Mother Nature and an atom bomb
As long as you're kept full of pretty bodies
your little secret will be safe with me
around again insane again
it somes again it sets me free
so set me free
set me free
'cause I think you need my soul
set me free
set me free
Your kept alive and polarized with one thing in mind,
metabolizin' everything that you see
but now and then or a little later
now I'm gonna take you down with me
Around again insane again
she comes again it sets me free
so set me free
set me free
'cause I think you need my soul
set me free
set me free
so set me free
set me free
'cuase I think you need my soul
set me free

So, take me down
take me down, down, down, down
take me down, take me down
So, take me down
take me down, down, down, down
take me down, take me down
So set me free

Drunken Head Blues
Well the bricks are piled on main street
And the sun is turning brown
Anybody with any sense
Has already left town
The beast is hollering lonesome
And the ghost of rimbaud rides
Ive got a drunken head full of reasons why
Ive got a broken heart inside
I can hear a dog someplace barking
I hear the wind begin to moan
At night I walk these rain splattered streets
Dead on my feet and all alone
My dreams begin to crumble
I can feel the downward slide
Ive got a drunken head full of reasons why
Ive got a broken heart inside
I have seen all of my dreams
Slipping away like sand
Love has grown wings and left me
Flown right out of my hand
Now Im weary and bruised from singing the blues
And my fortunes are down
My face and my walk are known
In every bar and dive in town
You can ask me where am I going
But Ill let your question ride
Ive got a drunken head full of reasons why
Ive got a broken heart inside
Ive got a handful of mist
Ive got a barrel of it
What do I do with it
Now Ive got no place to run
And Ive got no place to hide
All my trials, all my cares
All my worries, all my pride
All my sins, all my troubles
Theyre being washed in by the tide
And I wish, how I wish
That I could get on that horse
And ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride
Onto the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side, the other side, the other side...
Now Ive got a pain in my soul
And its fifteen miles wide
Now Ive got a pain in my soul
And its fifteen miles wide
Now Ive got a pain in my soul
And its fifteen miles wide
Ive got a drunken head full of reasons why
Ive got a broken heart inside

A Million Miles Away
You think I'm cool
But I am not
You think that I am nonchalant
You think I'm hard
That I lay the part
Don't be fooled
You are my heart
Oh Babe I'm just so tired of being on the run
Babe when I can't feel your touch
and we've lost another day
Seems like a million miles away
I wander in the dark
Looking for somewhere to stay
Seems like I'm a million miles away
Without love what have we got
All these things don't mean a lot
Let's disregard the past and start
A new fire
From this old spark
Let's take this love
And make it hotter than the sun
Babe when I can't feel your touch
And we've lost another day
Seems like a million miles away
I wander in the dark
Looking for somewhere to stay
Seems like I'm a million miles away
What am I looking for ?
What am I dreaming of ?
When you are the woman that I really love
Babe when I can't feel your touch
And we've lost another day
Seems like a million miles away
I wander in the dark
Looking for somewhere to stay
Seems like I'm a million miles away
