I never really thought about the drop I trod over rocks to get there Just so I could stand on top Clumsy and blind I stumbled As I crawled through desert sands I didn’t stop to think about the consequences As it came to pieces in my hands I thought I was a maritime marvel […]
In the whole wide world and all it bears An’ that your share is no less or more than Your fellow sisters and brother man Then take this knowledge and with it insist Declare yourself – an internationalist! If you lay no blame at the feet of next door An’ realise this struggle is also […]
You’re there to save my life for our obvious goal We’ve got a headstart for happiness For our part, guess we must be blessed For this feeling to be so strong Tell me is that so wrong? The space betweeen us for days has been so far; I’ve spent a lonely week Now I wanna […]
Who gets a hard-on with blood on their hands Who strips the wonder of life When they don’t have the right But they say it’s fair game And they won’t feel no pain As we feel no shame So let the sun come down Let our eyes close the blind Let the rivers run dry […]
Oh, we’ve killed off the thing we had so little of True, love has no truth without a price But the cost of loving has been blown sky high Spend on the hope the call The Peacemaker And pray to their God – the Heavy Rainmaker Paegans of wealth they dance so freely As they […]
Laughter, records loud I guess my guests are alright They won’t miss me for awhile ‘Cause I need to be alone Let me sink in sadness ‘Cause I can’t forget her She was on my mind and Try as I might I spend all my time – Thinking ’bout her And I walk to the […]
Trying to think of the right things to say I didn’t want you to think I was like the rest Who think they own you just because you’ve laid with them It didn’t matter – really didn’t matter It didn’t matter now we are together There are crystal hearts just waiting to be smashed And […]
like vandals they try to tear you down The whispers, turn rumours, there’s no truth but that don’t stop those cats They need the little bit extra, they don’t mind if it’s only conjecture They tried to tell me I wasn’t full time, I tried to think of an alibi I felt so awful I […]
And I read of how you died in pain – Well I just couldn’t understand it If I could of changed that, then Lord knows I’d do it now But there is no going back – And what’s done is done forever But you were always chained and shackled by the dirt – Of every […]
And there you are – beautiful in scabs Caressing my scalp – under the mounts of the gun towers I shout your name – I kick out in dreams And here we are – the searchlight beams The siren squeals – and hopeless shuffle to certainty The crab lice bite – the typhoid smells And […]
Spent combing the street In daytime showers They’ve become my beat; As I walk from cafe to bar I wish I knew where you are; Because you’ve clouded my mind And now I’m all out of time Empty skies say try to forget Better advice is to have no regrets; As I tread the boulevard […]
She keeps on stopping Right in front of my eyes Though I try and try I can’t hide anymore Letting my feelings speak for me But when I try to speak My tongue gets weak I stay the lonely man I am Why should it be That my heart’s under lock And I can’t find […]
I wonder – what will you do for me? I should be on my way, I should be earning pay, I should be all the things that I’m not – And I’ve tried on my own, now there’s nothing to keep me at home, Like my Brother has too – gotta leave to get out […]
All the reasons I had when the purpose was mine Now I stumble so fast rolling into the night Kiss me quick before I land and am broken in two Keep me on the right track, hold my dreams in tact too – I get lost in this place – I get lost, yes its […]
You’re a bonafide in every respect You are walking through streets that mean nothing to you You believe you’re above it and I don’t really blame you Maybe that’s why you speak like a child; The things you’re saying like “;I’m so free and so wild”; And I believe it when you look in my […]
Having free reign with the town so bleak – Like everything else it’s – all gone away. The Town Hall clock gives forth its chime, For no-one there to ask the time – Like everything else they’ve – all gone away. The Grocer’s shop hangs up its sign The sign say’s closed it’s a sign […]
To get any back to you will have to pay Don’t shout or get upset It’s the same message from the holy Tory government Don’t rock the sinking ship And don’t fly in the face of it Work for your heaven’s way It’s the same bullshit from the pulpit and the president Hear keys getting […]
When the world ws young and all the earth was mine Mine to tend to, to plough and to sow. Before mankind came and rendered all things low. And beauty was it’s first name by this I would call. And ready the harvest for one and for all. The orchards and the wheatfields which could […]
You don’t have to sit back and relax You can actually try changing it I know we’ve always been taught to rely Upon those in authority – But you never know until you try How things just might be – If we came together so strongly Are you gonna try to make this work Or […]
The jewels that gleam from a beckoning sea The rising shrieks that come from below me The rushing winds of age and time To close my eyes and feel the fall To not resist unto the pull Oh it’s easy So, so easy The tiny scent that breezes past me The promise that all could […]
