When Two Worlds Collide
(murray, bayley, harris )
My telescope looks out
Into the stars tonight
A little speck of light
Seems twice the size tonight
The calculations are so fine
Can it be growing all the time?
Now I cant believe its true
And I dont know what to do
For the hundredth time
I check the declination
Now the fear starts to grow
Even my computer shows
There are no errors in the calculations
Now its happened take no other view
Collision course, you must believe its true
Now theres nothing left that we can do
When two worlds collide
The anger and the pain
Of all those who remain
Two worlds collide
Who will be left alive
No place to hide
When two worlds collide
The anger, the pain
Of those who remain
When two worlds collide
When two worlds collide
So who will survive
Theres no place to hide
When two worlds collide

When Worlds Collide
When worlds collide, the best of us
Wont be here with the rest of us
Theyll drop before the paint has dried
When worlds collide, when worlds collide
The young today, I must confess
Have lost the path of righteousness
By settling for something less
The smarty pants, they fail to see
The posture of morality
Is just like common currency
Thats the way it works for me
So I dress like a brushing bride
Because my every move is sanctified
By claiming God is on my side
When worlds collide, when worlds collide
When worlds collide, the virtuous
Will have to take the shuttle bus
But we in limousines shall ride
When worlds collide, when worlds collide
These kids today, they have no pluck
Dont know the value of a buck
They think all politicians suck
But managing economies
Is one of my best qualities
Especially to friends like these
I can favor the ones I please
And if the mandate should be denied me
Then theres always something kept aside
If you have grease then you can slide
When worlds collide, when worlds collide
When worlds collide, the devious,
The cunning, and mischevious
Will mourn the moral men who died
When worlds collide, when worlds collide
The youth today, I must relate
Have not learned to appreciate
The pleasures of the city-state
They waste themselves on drugs and sex
And boogieing in discotheques
Ill take them by their bleach-blond necks
And conscript those I dont reject
Then Ill serve them butchered and fried
For our commander can sleep satisfied
While someones licking ones backside
When worlds collide, when worlds collide

When Two Worlds Collide
Shots ring out in paris, the bells ring out in rome
Your photos in the paper, buy youre getting old
Footsteps in the carpark hes the governor of the night
The omens say crime dont pay but each dog has its price
When two worlds collide
The tears well inside
When two worlds collide
A boy is found in naples, his bodys in a ditch
His young life counts for nothing when somebodys getting rich
Theres flowers on the table, he sips water she drinks wine
And I dont think that mercy is the language of our time
When two worlds collide
The teardrops inside
When two worlds collide
You break me up inside
Backstreet of chicago a black man plays the gold
Theres a man on every corner says hed like to buy your soul
Bhuddists in the temple, bullets in the night
Steeping out of their world, into your world, into mine
In the jet black night
The tears well inside
When two worlds collide
You break me up inside
Two worlds collide

Verse 1
Read my letter
And I pray you understand
Just you let her
Just let her force my hand
Release 1
Be your judge and jury
Are we guilty of lies
When two worlds collide
Chorus
No one lover can last forever
So dont you sever the lifeline
Just two people who do whatever
Dont sever the lifeline
Verse 2
Your two faces
Which one do I know the best
Theres no story you can hide
That stands the test
Release 2
Through the flame and the fury
Will tomorrow survive
When two worlds collide
When two worlds collide
Chorus
Break

Worlds Collide
(Jean-Paul Maunick / Dominic Oakenfull)
From the moment that I laid my eyes on you, I knew
The glory of a new day had arrived, I was hooked on you
Suddenly life it seemed was greater than my wildest dream
It never even crossed my mind to try to hide my love
There was no way we could stop, getting caught up in that groove
Something happens to my life
When our worlds collide
Puts my spirit in the light
When our worlds collide
I wasn't looking for another love
I guess my heart was open to persuasion
So surprised you came into my life, out of the blue
Suddenly life it seemed was greater than the wildest of my dreams
It never even crossed my mind to try to hide my love
There was no way we could stop getting caught up in that groove
Something happens to my life
When our worlds collide
Puts my spirit in the light
When our worlds collide
Your world, my world, your world, my world

When Two Worlds Collide
Your world was so different from mine, dont you see
And we couldnt be close, though we tried
We both reached for heavens, but ours werent the same.
Thats what happens when two worlds collide
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
My world could never fit in, I wish it could
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh, how theyve cried
Thats what happens when two worlds collide
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
My world could never fit in, I wish it could
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh, how theyve cried
Thats what happens when two worlds collide
Thats what happens when two worlds collide
I fancy that I see a bunch of roses
A blossom from and orange tree in your hair
While the organ plays I love you truly,
Just let me pretend that I am there
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel
That should be ringing now for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else youre walking
Those wedding bells with never ring for me
Those wedding bells with never ring for me

Distant Sun
(neil finn)
Tell me all the things you would change
I dont pretend to know what you want
When you come around and spin my top
Time and again, time and again
No fire where I lit my spark
I am not afraid of the dark
Where your words devour my heart
And put me to shame, put me to shame
When your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
Still so young to travel so far
Old enough to know who you are
Wise enough to carry the scars
Without any blame, theres no one to blame
Easy to forget what you learn
Waiting for the thrill to return
Feeling your desire burn
As youre drawn to the flame
When your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
And Im lying on a table
Washed out in a flood
Like a christian fearing vengeance from above
I dont pretend to know what you want
But I offer love
And seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
And dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

I Have No Desire To See Our Worlds Collide
You have always said to me...
I lived in my own world.
And I did not object.
In fact...
I accepted what was 'then',
Your way to address...
My nonconformity.
And today you say to me,
I should express more empathy...
To you,
As 'your' reality...
Has increasingly ceased.
But I...
Have no desire,
To see our worlds collide.
Nor am I wishing,
To seek an approval that accepts my insights.
Just know this...
You have been right all along.
And I wish to keep things as is.
For me your assessment,
Has awarded me with benefits.
And I...
Have no desire,
To see our worlds collide.
Goodbye!

(Happy Poem) Burning On The Inside
Burning on the inside.
I can't stop till our worlds collide.
Pour some gasoline, ignite it with a little red Bic, and watch it burn.
Its the second coming.
Everything that was once gone is back.
Every feeling just as strong and intact.
The anger, the rage, the need to dance upon the world stage.
The desire to be satan himself.
Sitting upon a kingdom all high and powerful.
Some must lead and some must follow.
With so much arrogance I smile.
Look at me I can fly.
The angels wings have been returned.
Burning on the inside.
I can't stop till our worlds collide.
Pour some gasoline, ignite it with a little red Bic, and watch it burn.
It is my fire.
It is my life.
I control the ambers as they glow and turn to ash.
The complications of being too proud.
If you can't swim you might just drown.
But being on solid ground, it feels so sound.
It doesn't shake or quake.
It doesn't sink or bend.
In so many words all has mended.
Every wound has been healed.
A miracle by no small standard.
Burning on the inside.
I can't stop till our worlds collide.
Pour some gasoline, ignite it with a little red Bic, and watch it burn.
Returning to efforts that seemed so in vain.
The power to change.
A chameleon come into his own.
Blending into all environments.
Barely noticed as threat.
That is a mistake that some will soon regret.
Burning on the inside.
I can't stop till our worlds collide.
Pour some gasoline, ignite it with a little red Bic, and watch it burn.

This World
They say trust on us
They say our time will come
And your dreams will come alive
One day, we will find
No way to cross this line
Its where our worlds collide
This world is not made for you and i
Its build on blood and a million lies
Some say we dont fit in
Were lost in another world
Their truth will never hold
Cos , ones heart is ones soul
Were living ,day by day
Let them wither, till theyre old and grey
This world is not made for you and i
Its build on blood and a million lies
I was blind, but now I see
We are destined for misery
If youre lost, you wont be found
There is no guiding hand of destiny
This world is not made for you and i
Its build on blood and a million lies
They paint the fabric of our lives, down and out
With nowhere to hide
What you miss, what you need, what you lack is a peace of mind, our worlds collide.

Divided Highway
Simmons/peterik/fox
Two lanes - twistin down a dusty highway
Two souls - on their way to where it leads
Tail lights - fadin on the far horizon
But theres a detour on the road to destiny
It goes up in a blinding flash
When two reckless worlds collide
You cant avoid the crash
Sometimes in life we ride on
Divided highway - torn in two directions
Speedin out of sight through the night
Divided highway - stranded at the crossroads
Of whats wrong and whos right
Two hearts forgettin what they meant to each other
Too proud ever to admit the truth
Someday itll all seem clear
When two reckless worlds collide
Its gonna turn to tears
Why must we always ride a divided highway
On the road baby no-ones safe
When two reckless worlds collide
When we defend our faith
Thats when in life we ride a divided highway
Shuttin out the other side
Divided highway clingin to our foolish pride
Out on the road nowhere; nowhere to hide
Why must we always ride a divided highway
Torn in two directions; speedin outa sight
Divided highway stranded at the crossroads
Of whats wrong and whos right
Divided highway cuttin through the darkness
Searchin for the light
Divided highway ridin on the fine line
Between day and nite
Divided highway

Two Different Worlds
I know this girl, shes always on my mind
She lives in her world and I live in mine
I should forget about her and Ive tried
Lord knows Ive tried
But I want to know her, and heres the other side
Ive got someone waiting for me every night
Shes the only one Ive ever loved
And its been that way for the longest time
Shes the one that makes my world go right
And it tears me in two because I know where Ill be tonight
I think she knows it
I think she knows
Two different worlds, two different worlds
One that belongs to me, one could be wrong for me
Two different worlds, two different worlds
Oh, two different worlds
Is she that different or is it the thrill of someone new
Strung out on her, I need her love
I need it bad, and I know, I know its true
Im the one that lies awake alone
I know, shes the one that makes me stray from home
And I know it
Yeah, I know it
Two different worlds, two different worlds
One that I may regret, one that I cant forget
Two different worlds, two different worlds
Oh, always two different worlds
No, I cant explain this emptiness
No, I know I cant go on like this
Two different worlds, two different worlds
Two different worlds
I live in two different worlds
One that I may regret, one that I wont forget
Two different worlds
But I cant live in both, I know
One world I must let go

Worlds Collide
Released on the cd-single for promises
Never gonna die now
Crawling from a wrecked jam, Im laughing out loud
Angel on my shoulder
Living at the speed of sound
Heavenly distraction
Im hanging on the edge and spinning out of control
Choose your medication
Its a generation overload
I can see it falling from the sky
Can you feel me
I can hear you calling when you cry
Can you see me
Pain and suffering, your knees are tied
Will you hear me
Everchanging as your worlds collide
Running going nowhere
Take it to the limit then its payback time
Nothing but a heartache
Waiting at the end of the line
Take a look around, babe
Youre looking down the barrel of a loaded mind
Generation landslide
Crawling through the enemy lines
I will be the one your justify
Will you hear me
I will kiss you with a last goodbye
I thought I was the one who could survive
Does anyone get outta here alive
I gotta find the courage, gotta make a change
And start all over again
Taken for a ride against my will
And taking it is always such a bitter pill
Shaken for the sake of it, no more
Gotta get away cause I dont know what Im doing it for
I can see it falling from the sky
Can you feel me
I can hear you calling when you cry
Can you see me
I will be there when you close your eyes
Will you hear me
Everchanging as your worlds collide

Every Time Two Fools Collide
You want things your way
And I want these mine
And now we dont know
Just where you draw the line
How can love survive
If we keep cheers and sights
And who picks up the pieces
Every time two fools collide
You lay the blame on me
And I put the balme on you
But why do we keep finding faults
In everything you do
And how long can we keep right in wrongs
So cut and cry
And who picks up the pieces
Every time two fools collide
We can save our love
We still have the time
Oh, I know there must be a way
But we still havent tried
To keep our hearts from breaking
Every time two fools collide

Another Satellite
My heart is taken its not lost in space
And I dont want to see your mooney mooney face
I say why on earth do you revolve around me
Arent you aware of the gravity
Dont need another satellite
Im happy standing on my feet of clay
I have no wish to swim your milky milky way
I say why on earth do you send your letters round here
Only to gum up the atmosphere
Dont need another satellite
So circling well orbit another year
Two worlds that wont collide
So circling well orbit another year
Moon still tries to steal the tide away
Dont need another satellite
Dont need another satellite
Abort your mission lets just say you tried
Before you glimpse I have a darker darker side
I say why in heavens name do you come on these trips
Only to freeze in a total eclipse
Dont need another satellite
So circling well orbit another year
Two worlds that wont collide
So circling well orbit another year
Moon still tries to steal the tide away
Dont need another satellite
Dont need another satellite

Collide
The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And i'm tangled up in you, yeah
I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide
I'm quiet you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
I somehow find
You and I collide
Don't stop here
I've lost my place
I'm close behind
Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide

I Live In Other Worlds
I LIVE IN OTHER WORLDS
I live in other worlds-
Far from those most people live in
I am happy in my worlds-mostly
They do not bite or sting-
I live in other worlds
There are inward worlds
Quiet worlds
They have poems and music and stories in them-
I listen to them
And I make and remake them
as my own little worlds
Word- worlds mostly-
Like this one.

Nothing But The Self Reflecting
nothing but the self reflecting
energy eternal flowing
nothing knowing always growing
constant motion without
separation ever showing
What waves in space cause worlds to
continuously condense and collide?
How to measure the ceaseless collimation
of matter with limiting misconceptions of time?

Worlds collide unseen to human eye,

We are but a spec of dust floating in natures dominion
joined intrinsically as one.

As Destiny Unfolds
There is always a choice to make
When two paths merge and life takes a break
For a split second, all things are one
As destiny and chaos collide once more
When two paths merge and life takes a break
No one will warn you that it is already to late
To change the path you have taken
As destiny and chaos collide once more
For a split second, all things are one
In that moment, you realize God will not be outdone
This place and time will no longer exist
As destiny and chaos collide once more
No one will warn you it is already too late
The first man and woman sealed your fate
Nothing can stop what was meant to be
As destiny and chaos collide once more
To change the path you have taken
The original spirit must reawaken
To be forsaken was never part of the master plan
As destiny and chaos collide once more
In that moment, you realize God will not be outdone
By now you realize that life is not a dry run
No second chances are guaranteed
As destiny and chaos collide once more
This place and time will no longer exist
And mankind is summarily dismissed
For failing to exercise discipline and reproof
As destiny and chaos collide once more
The first man and woman sealed your fate
The choice is no longer yours to make
What you do now is fruit of the poisonous tree
As destiny and chaos collide once more
Nothing can stop what was meant to be
Two paths have merged into life’s potpourri
The world is filled with to much hate
As destiny and chaos collide once more
The original spirit must reawaken
Or those waiting for the rapture will not be taken
It will all be for not in the end
As destiny and chaos collide once more
To be forsaken was never part of the master plan
The time has come to take a stand
What you do now repeats the past of long ago
As destiny and chaos collide once more
By now you realize that life is not a dry run
What has been will always return
As it was in ancient times, so it will be
As destiny and chaos collide once more
No second chances are guaranteed
No end in sight, no need to proceed
Since all you know will be forgotten
As destiny and chaos collide once more
And mankind is summarily dismissed
Because he labors for vanity
His soul adrift in a sea of confusion
As destiny and chaos collide once more
