Mesh

Below the surface this day I need it light
Inside dimension lies another sacrifice
Once out of reach, we never speak, we never compromise
As they turned to gold the edges froze and seemed to turn to
Ice
All flight departures assembled not returned
Left in these passions I looked but never learned
Theres hope, youve heard theres life in another world
Sometimes youll find that truth is never kind
In the ghost lies a portrait of space that time is never here
In the mind of a fallen man, an easy day in another land
Ship sails out to sea, away from me, I just stand and stare
Assassin clears his hands, I know that, and, I wasnt even
There
One day it came to mind we even leave the rest behind
Some day, I know, you get where you should go
Theres hope, youve heard theres life in another world
Sometimes well find that truth is never kind
One day it came to mind we even leave the rest behind
Some day, I know, we even get where we used to go
Theres hope, youve heard theres life in another world

Stigmata

Stronger than reason
Stronger than lies
The only truth I know
Is the look in your eyes
The look in your eyes!
Just like a car crash
Just like a knife
My favourite weapon
Is the look in your eyes
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Theres a ton locked in your empty eyes
Get out of my life!
Im chewing on glass
And eating my fingers
Im not the one
Whos run out of lies
Lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of lies!
Youve run out of time!
Cutting my face
And walking on splinters
I lost my soul
To the look in your eyes
Your eyes!
You ran out of lies!
You ran out of lies!
You ran out of lies!
You ran out of time!
Stigmata!
O, you have empty eyes!...
They tell me nothing, nothing but lies

Stop Me

I was weak and I was blind
You know I never ever wanted to put
Our love on the light
You were right, and I was wrong
I should have listened to the words
You said
But I was too headstrong
So if youve heard this all before
Dont let me carry on no more
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me, stop me, stop me
You said I lied, you said I cried
But I had to say something fast in case
You threw me aside
I didnt know, I couldnt guess
If I only would have known I never
Would have been in this mess
But if youve heard this all before
Dont let me carry on no more
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me, stop me, stop me
But if youve heard this all before
Dont let me carry on no more
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one
Stop me, stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one
Stop me if you think youve
Heard this one, this one

It Hurts Too Much

(eric carmen)
A lot of empty words that Ive already heard
Aint gonna work tonight
Dont wanna talk about it anymore
cause that aint gonna make things right
So now youre back again, you say its not too late
To give it one more try
Well, I dont want to hear your lies
No, I dont want to hear your lies no more
Ive got to find a way, I know, to let you go
cause it hurts too much
You say youll never leave
And then, youre gone again
Oh, it hurts too much
It hurts too much, my love
Ive heard it all before
Ive got to tell you no, no, no
It hurts too much
You know I tried so hard
I spend so many nights
Waitin for the phone to ring
But its over now and Im afraid
I dont feel much of anything
You say you want my love
Youve played around enough
But now I cant forget
Well, honey theres nothing left
I aint got nothin left at all
Ive got to find a way, I know, to let you go
cause it hurts too much
You say youll never leave
And then, youre gone again
Oh, it hurts too much
It hurts too much, my love
Ive heard it all before
Ive got to tell you no, no, no
It hurts too much
Just when I thought Id gotten over you
I hear you knockin at my door
After everything youve put me through, you know
I just cant take it anymore
You say you want my love
Youve played around enough
But now I cant forget
Well, honey theres nothing left
I aint got nothin left at all
Ive got to find a
To find a way, I know, to let you go
cause it hurts too much
You say youll never leave
And then, youre gone again
Oh, it hurts too much
It hurts too much, my love
Ive heard it all before
Ive got to tell you no, no, no
It hurts too much
Oh, it hurts too much
It hurts too much
Oh, it hurts too much
Listen when I tell you it hurts
Oh, it hurts too much
Oh mama it hurts
Oh, you hurt me so much

Your Song

(bernie taupin & elton john, 1969)
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those, who can easily hide,
I don't have much money, but boy if i did
I'd buy a big house where we could both live.
If i were a sculptor, but then again no,
Or a man who sells potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much, but it's the best i can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you.
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done,
I hope you don't mind, i hope you don't mind
That i put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of those verses, you know what, make me cross
But the sun's been quite kind while i wrote down this song,
It's for people like you that keep it turned on.
So excuse me forgetting, but these things that i do
You see i've forgotten, if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is, what i, what i really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes i've ever seen.
And you can tell everybody, this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done,
I hope you don't mind, i hope you don't mind
What i put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.
I hope you don't mind, i hope you don't mind
What i put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world.
While you're in the world
While you're in the world

Thats When Ill Stop Loving You

When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever
Yeah, thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Im sure youve heard these words before
And I know its hard for you to trust them once more
Youre afraid it all might end
And a broken heart is scared of breaking again
But youve gotta believe me
Ill never leave you
Youll never cry long as I am there
And I will always be there
You will never be without love
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever
When lies become the truth
Oh you know then baby,
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop loving you yeah
As long as sunlight lights the sky
Light of love will be found in these eyes of mine (these eyes of mine)
And I will shine that light for you
Youre the only one, Ill ever give this heart to
What Im trying to say is, nothing will change this (ahh..)
Therell be no time you wont find me there (find me there)
Cause I will always be there
You will always have all my love
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever (yeah)
When lies become the truth (ohhhh)
Well you know then baby,
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you
Thats when Ill stop loving you
And when this world doesnt turn anymore
When the stars all decide to stop shining
Til then Im gonna to be by your side
Gonna be loving you forever
Every day of my life
Ohh..baby..
Well you know then baby
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you
When winter comes in summer
When theres no more forever
When lies become the truth (truth... yeah)
Well you know then baby,
Thats when Ill stop lovin
Thats when Ill stop loving you (ohh..)
When winter comes in summer (yeah)
When theres no more forever
When lies become the truth
Thats when Ill stop loving (well you know then baby)

Thats when Ill stop babe
Ill stop babe

How Many Lies ?

Once there were times,
Once there were reasons filled with rhymes,
Everything shared, everything told
You keep me so warm,
Protect me from all those mighty storms
And dreams seem so old
So look at us now, just look at us now,
With our hands on our hearts
And lines on our brow
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, its for the best?
And leave truth as the casualty?
Do you read through the lines,
Or believe the tv and the times?
Where can we find more ways to see?
You strain on the truth,
And make believe all when you cry wolf,
And the lies youre giving me
So look at us now, just look at us now,
With our hands on our hearts
And lines on our brow
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, its for the best?
And leave truth as the casualty?
Oh, well the truth is hard,
So when they write the book,
Fictions what you wanna be
Well, its your freedom of choice,
But you know that lies, are the cancer of democracy
Youve painted your face,
And now youve tainted your words
And now youre ready and armed with love
Well if youre head is steady,
And your soul is ready,
Were going up above
So whatever you wanna be,
Just come on along with me,
If theres truth in our hearts,
Maybe we can break free
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, its for the best?
And leave truth as the casualty?
How many lies must we tell?
How many lies must we see?
How many times must we say, its for the best?
And leave truth as the casualty?
How many times must we say, its for the best?
And leave nothing, yeah

This Flight Tonight

Look Out The Left The Captain Said
The Lights Down There Thats Where Well Land
Saw A Falling Star Burning
High Above The Las Vegas Sand
It Wasnt The One That You Gave To Me
That Night Down South Between The Trailers
Not The Early One That You Wish Upon
Not The Northern One That Guides In The Sailors
Youve Got That Touch So Gentle And Sweet
But Youve Got That Look So Critical
Cant Talk To You Babe You Know I Get So Weak
Sometimes I Think That Love Is Just Mythical
Up Theres A Heaven,Down Theres A Town
Blackness Everywhere Any Little Lights Shine
Blackness,Blackness Draggin Me Down
Come On Light A Candle In This Heart Of Mine
Starbright,Starbright,Youve Got The Lovin That I Like
Turn This Crazy Bird Around
Should Not Have Got On This Flight Tonight
Im Drinkin Sweet Champagne Got The Headphones Up High
Cant Numb You,Cant Drum You Out Of My Mind
Theyre Singin-"Goodbye Baby, Baby Bye-Bye,Ooh! Love Is Blind"
Up Go The Flaps ,Down Go The Wheels
Hope You Got Your Heat Turned On Baby
Hope Theyve Finally Fixed Your Automobile
Hope Its Better When We Meet Again Babe
Starbright,Starbright,Youve Got The Lovin That I Like
Turn This Crazy Bird Around
Should Not Have Got On This Flight Tonight
Should Not Have Got On This Flight Tonight

Cheater

Cheater, I know where youve been
Cheater, your lies
Cant hide your sin
Cheater, dont ask me how I know
Cheater, I guess its time for you to go
Im tired of chasing shadows
So lllusive in the night
And your empty words
That leave me high and dry
Now the curtains finally fallen
On this fantasy affair
Youve had me for the last time
With your lies
Cheater, youre a cheater
I know where youve been
Cheater, your lies
Cant hide your sin
Cheater, dont ask me how I know
Cheater, I guess its time for you to go
The voices in the wind I heard
Kept telling me to run
Whispering a warning to my heart
And the voices deep as thunder
Tried to speak of things to come
I was blinded then
But now I see the light
Cheater, youre a cheater
And I know where youve been
Cheater, mean mistreater
Your lies cant hide your sin
Cheater, dont ask me how I know
Cheater, I guess its time
For you to go

Temptation

Temptation
A heaven, a gateway, a hope
Just like a feeling inside, its no joke
And though it hurts me to treat you this way
Betrayed by words, Id never heard, too hard to say
Up, down, turn around
Please dont let me hit the ground
Tonight I think Ill walk alone
Ill find my soul as I go home
Each way I turn, I know Ill always try
To break this circle thats been placed around me
From time to time, I find Ive lost some need
That was urgent to myself, I do believe
Up, down, turn around
Please dont let me hit the ground
Tonight I think Ill walk alone
Ill find my soul as I go home
Oh, youve got green eyes
Oh, youve got blue eyes
Oh, youve got grey eyes
And Ive never seen anyone quite like you before
No, Ive never met anyone quite like you before
Bolts from above hit the people down below
People in this world, we have no place to go
Oh, its the last time
Oh, Ive never met anyone quite like you before
Oh no, Ive never met anyone quite like you before

Finding Truth

They say that everyone lies
It is said that everyone will hurt you
They say honesty is the best policy
But what happens when we find the truth?

What if we find something we don't want to?
What if we find our life has been a lie?
What if we find all we ever worked for was for nothing?
What happens when we find the truth?

Is it possible to find truth within a person?
Can one person bring light into your world?
Can that one person make everything right?
Can finding that one person be like finding truth?

If it is possible then i believe i found truth
Truth to my life
Truth to everything i've searched for
Truth for the rest of my life.

The lies are over
My life complete
Truth to who i am
Which is all i ever wanted to know...to know just who i am.

This is dedicated to my g/f Gini, i love her so much.

Hope and Change

We must be ready in any season, to give others the real reason,
For the hope they sense in us, as we point them to Christ Jesus,
And we must be ready any time, to direct them to God's Design,
For hope that is above this world, as His Truth to men we herald.

The hope and change that we heard, has not at all been unfurled,
Instead of a hope and change, if not worse, things are the same,
For this was not of the Lord's Plan, but, it was that of fallen man,
Providing no hope, but despair, for men and women, everywhere.

Real change comes from above, through God, they speak not of,
As they push a dark emptiness, lacking Truth and Righteousness,
Setting the course for God's enemy, to deceive souls for eternity,
Using men on a political stage, to prepare men for a darker page!

That page right out of Prophecy, from God's Word, for all to see,
Right from the book of Revelation, these men of Satan's creation,
Setting this world for a darker time, that will be of Satan's design,
While he reveals the Antichrist, to change the way all live their life.

Change that shall surely permeate, the entire world fueled by hate,
Hate spread throughout this world, as his dark change is unfurled,
Upon all of the people left behind, given over to that darker mind,
As God's Truth was ignored, dismissing true Hope from The Lord.

But, you can still find that place, in God's Plan through His Grace,
While still in this very present age, before our Lord turns the page,
Receiving Hope in Jesus Christ, being changed by Him in this life,
Placed upon God's eternal path; saved from all the coming Wrath.

Leaving

If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, Im movin on
Youll always be, my baby
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for awhile
Hope I could make it back around
Anything that I want I can get it, boy
You know you turn me on and on
Thats why I switch my frame my mind
Of bein' there when you call; always on time
Im lookin to spread my wings and party
Everything and for everybody
Need my space, no time alone
Its like our hearts dont match no more
Still anything that you want, you can get it, boy
You know I still got love for you
(In court i plead the 5th my baby)
(Chorus)
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for a while
Hope I could make it back around
When you was cheatin me you probably thinkin
I won't sense a thing,
But love got funny ways of catchin up to lies
Your lies can't look me straight in the eyes
Im not surprised
That you can hurt me, baby
Though why me, baby?
Just let me breathe in i'll fly freely
If you were me, what would you do
Always a lie and never the truth
Now as for me, Im movin on
Youll always be my baby
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for awhile
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for awhile
Hope I could make it back around
Yo, yo
Why in the world would you wanna leave me, girl
Is there somethin out there
That you feel is better than what's here at home
And I know a bitch can do bad on her own
Youre not alone the way you hurt me, baby
Shit why me, baby
I feel your pain a little
But I know that love is good
And as long as I let you go
That you feel the need to come back to me, baby
Who else gon' hold you and sex you crazy
R--U--L--E
Come on back and holla at me, baby
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for a while
Hope I could make it back around
Baby, I just gotta let you go for now
Thought I could take it for a while
Maybe youll make it back around
Baby, I just gotta live my life for now
Cant see me changin for a while
Hope I could make it back around

Always a lie and never the truth

Youll always be, my baby

Blue Monday

How does it feel to treat me like you do?
When youve laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are
I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me, how do I feel
Tell me now, how do I feel
Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
Theyll turn away no more
And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But Im quite sure that youll tell me
Just how I should feel today
I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasnt for your misfortune
Id be a heavenly person today
And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now, how should I feel
Now I stand here waiting...
I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold

The Eyes Of A Child

(graham russell and ron bloom)
When you look to the past for lifes long hidden meaning
For the dreams and the plans made in your youth
Does the thrill to achieve match the warm hidden feeling
That lies so still and lives in you
In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child
Youve found the place to walk the path youve chosen
Youll never miss the world youve left behind
When life gives life, its happiness unbroken
When you give love, its love youll find
In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child
In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child
In the eyes of a child there is joy, there is laughter
There is hope, there is trust, a chance to shape the future
For the lessons of life there is no better teacher
Than the look in the eyes of a child

Hallelujah

Hallelujah
I am a preacher with a message for my people
Over the world, scratching on the ground
Looking for the peace that nobody has found
I am a spokesman for a better way of living
Love is the word and it can be heard
If you are young the message can be sung
Let me hear you sing, hallelujah
Oh tell it to the man whos power is the sermon on the wall
Tell it to the man who says you can misjudge them all
Tell it till it can be heard above the wailing of the crowd
Tell it on the field of war and hope youll soon be justified
There is a better way of life and its not so hard to find
If you live and let the people in your world speak its mind
I am the pupil who sells his life for freedom
All over the world and it can be heard
If you are young the message can be sung
Hallelujah

Nevermind

The war was lost
The treaty signed
I was not caught
I crossed the line

I was not caught
Though many tried
I live among you
Well disguised

I had to leave
My life behind
I dug some graves
You’ll never find

The story’s told
With facts and lies
I had a name
But never mind

Never mind
Never mind
The war was lost
The treaty signed

There’s truth that lives
And truth that dies
I don’t know which
So never mind

Your victory
Was so complete
That some among you
Thought to keep

A record of
Our little lives
The clothes we wore
Our spoons our knives

The games of luck
Our soldiers played
The stones we cut
The songs we made

Our law of peace
Which understands
A husband leads
A wife commands

And all of this
Expressions of
The Sweet Indifference
Some call Love

The High Indifference
Some call Fate
But we had Names
More intimate

Names so deep and
Names so true
They’re blood to me
They’re dust to you

There is no need
That this survive
There’s truth that lives
And truth that dies

Never mind
Never mind
I live the life
I left behind

There’s truth that lives...

I could not kill
The way you kill
I could not hate
I tried I failed

You turned me in
At least you tried
You side with them
Whom you despise

This was your heart
This swarm of flies
This was once your mouth
This bowl of lies

You serve them well
I’m not surprised
You’re of their kin
You’re of their kind

Never mind
Never mind
The story’s told
With facts and lies
You own the world
So never mind

Never mind
Never mind
I live the life
I left behind

I live it full
I live it wide
Through layers of time
You can’t divide

My woman’s here
My children too
Their graves are safe
From ghosts like you

In places deep
With roots entwined
I live the life I left behind

Beyond The Realms Of Death

He had enough
He couldnt take anymore
Hed found a place
In his mind and slammed the door
No matter how they tried
They couldnt understand
They washed and dressed him
Fed him by hand
Yeah! Ive left the world behind
Im safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
Ill decide not you
Withdrawn hed sit there
Stare blank into space
No sign of life
Would flicker on his face
Until one day he smiled
It seemed as though with pride
The wind kissed him
Goodbye - and then he died
Yeah! Ive left the world behind
Im safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
Ill decide not you
Keep the world with all its sin
Its not fit for livin in
Yeah! I will start again
It can take forever, and ever, and ever
And ever, but Ill still win.
How many like him,
Are there still
But to us, all
Seem to have lost the will
They lie in thousands
Plagued and lost
Is nothing worth this bitter cost
Yeah! Ive left the world behind
Im safe here in my mind
Free to speak with my own kind
This is my life, this is my life
Ill decide not youkeep the world with all its sin
Its not fit for livin in
Beyond the realms of death.
