A king without a sword A land without a king A truth without a voice One song left to sing One song to sing

If ashes are ashes and dust is dust At our journey's end then return we must To the sands of the shore White doves in flight Peace to all But tell me why the peacemakers fall Must we bury anymore?
The hush of the crowd as the horse rode by A black lace veil hid the tears from her eyes And we all wept in silence How many times must good men die? How many times will the children cry? 'Til they suffer no more sadness Oh, stop the madness Oh, stop all the madness.

When you try your best, but you don't succeed When you get what you want, but not what you need When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone, but it goes to waste Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face When you lose something you cannot replace Tears stream down your face and I Tears stream down your face I promise you I will learn from my mistakes Tears stream down your face and I
Lights will guide you home And ignite your bones And I will try to fix you

Like a desert needs rain Like a town needs a name I need your love.
Like a drifter needs a room Hawkmoon I need your love. I need your love.
Like a rhythm unbroken Like drums in the night Like sweet soul music Like sunlight I need your love.
Like coming home And you don't know where you've been Like black coffee Like nicotine I need your love, I need your love.
When the night has no end And the day yet to begin As the room spins around I need your love I need your love.
Like a Phoenix rising needs a holy tree Like the sweet revenge Of a bitter enemy I need your love.
Like heat needs the sun Like honey on her tongue Like the muzzle of a gun Like oxygen I need your love, I need your love.
When the night has no end And the day yet to begin As the room spins around I need your love I need your love.
Like thunder needs rain Like a preacher needs pain Like tongues of flame Like a sweet stain Need your love I need your love.
Like a needle needs a vein Like someone to blame Like a thought unchained Like a runaway train Need your love, I need your love. Need your love I need your love.
Like faith needs a doubt Like a freeway out Need your love.
Like powder needs a spark Like lies need the dark I need your love
this is corny but i think its sweet my daughter used to sing it
Baby, I know you're hurting Right now you feel like you could never Love again Now all I ask is for a chance To prove that I love you
From the first day That I saw your smiling face Honey, I knew that we would Be together forever Ooh when I asked you out You said no but I found out Darling that you'd been hurt You felt like you'd never love again I deserve a try honey just once Give me a chance and I'll prove this all wrong You walked in, you were so quick to judge But honey he' s nothing like me
[Chorus:] I'll never break your heart I'll never make you cry I'd rather die than live without you I'll give you all of me Honey, that's no lie [2x]
As time goes by You will get to know me A little more better Girl that's the way love goes baby, baby And I (I) know you're afraid (know you're afraid) To let your feelings show (feelings show) And I understand Girl, it's time to let go (girl, it's time to let go because) I deserve a try (try) honey Just once (once) Give me a chance (chance) and I'll prove this all wrong (wrong you walked) You walked in, you were so quick to judge (quick to judge) But honey he's nothing like me Darling why can't you see
[Chorus (2x)]
[Bridge:] No way, no how (I'll never break your heart girl, I'll never make you cry) I swear (Oh I, oh I, I swear) No way, no how (I'll never break your heart girl, I'll never make you cry)

A change of speed, a change of style. A change of scene, with no regrets, A chance to watch, admire the distance, Still occupied, though you forget. Different colours, different shades, Over each mistakes were made. I took the blame. Directionless so plain to see, A loaded gun won't set you free. So you say. We'll share a drink and step outside, An angry voice and one who cried, 'We'll give you everything and more, The strain's too much, can't take much more.' I've walked on water, run through fire, Can't seem to feel it anymore. It was me, waiting for me, Hoping for something more, Me, seeing me this time, Hoping for something else.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".

I was there in the back stage, When first light came around. I grew up like a changeling, To win the first time around. I can see all the weakness. I can pick all the faults. Well I concede all the faith tests, Just to stick in your throats.
31G, 31G, 31G
I hung around in your soundtrack, To mirror all that you've done, To find the right side of reason, To kill the three lies for one, I can see all the cold facts. I can see through your eyes. All this talk made no contact. No matter how hard we tried.
31G, 31G, 31G
I can still hear the footsteps. I can see only walls. I slid into your man-traps, With no hearing at all. I just see contradiction, Had to give up the fight, Just to live in the past tense, To make believe you were right.
31G, 31G, 31G

However much I push it down It's never enough However much I push it around It's never enough However much I make it out It's never enough It s Never enough However much I do
However big I ever feel It's never enough Whatever I do to make it real It's never enough In any way I try to speak It's never enough Never enough However much I try to speak It's never enough
However much I'm falling down It's never enough However much I'm falling out It's never enough Whatever smile I smile the most It's never enough Never enough However I smile I smile the most
So let me hold it up Just one more go Holding it up for just once more One more time to fill it up One more time to kill But whatever I do It's never enough It's never enough
It's never enough

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind Whatever happened to our love? I wish I understood It used to be so nice, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me S. O. S The love you gave me, nothing else can save me S. O. S
When you're gone How can I even try to go on? When you're gone Though I try how can I carry on?
You seem so far away though you are standing near You made me feel alive, but something died I fear I really tried to make it out I wish I understood What happened to our love, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me S. O. S The love you gave me, nothing else can save me S. O. S
When you're gone How can I even try to go on? When you're gone Though I try how can I carry on?

Because it was Father's day recently, and in the memory of Uzeir Srna...
The First Time I Ever Saw You You Had That Far Away Look In Your Eyes And Heaven's Eyes Shined Down Upon You And The Whole Room Filled Up With Life
Now The Cruel World It's Gonna Try And Change You Try To Hang You Up And Mess With Your Pride Now The Rich Just Try To Chain You You Got To Keep Your Fire Burning Inside
Promise Me You Won't Let Them Put Out Your Fire, Put Out Your FIre
Now, Sometimes The World Tries To Slap You And It Seems To Love Watching You Fall I Won't Lie To You, It's Gonna Happen You Got To Pick Yourself Up And Move On
Promise Me You Won't Let Them Put Out Your Fire, Put Out Your FIre
Which Star Will I Be Thinking Of Tonight, Tonight
Promise Me You Won't Let Them Put Out Your Fire, Put Out Your FIre
Oh I hope that you somebody, someone I could count To pull me to my feet again when I was in doubt Oh now Mama, do you hear me? I'm calling out your name Oh now Mama, do you hear me? I'm calling out your name, I'm calling out your name
I'm the last cowboy in this town Empty veins and my plastic broken crown They said I swam the sea that ran around They said I once was lost but now I'm truly found And I know the place another way, I feel, I feel no shame Oh now Mama, do you hear my fear? It's coming after me I'm calling out your name, I'm calling out your name
Stay with me, stay with me
Did you throw your heart away? Oh I know just what I say Did your phone cut in the way? Being still downtown I say And I know you ran away, oh I know but I'm feeling okay And I found love and fear won't go, and I found love and feeling won't go See you walk away, feeling okay now, happy now, happy now?
Stay with me, stay with me, stay with me, stay with me
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
How does it feel To treat me like you do When you've laid 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 They will turn away no more
And I still find it so hard To say what I need to say But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me Just how I should feel today
I see a ship in the harbor I can and shall obey But if it wasn't for your misfortunes I'd 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

Who knows what tomorrow will bring Maybe sunshine, and maybe rain But as for me I'll wait and see And maybe it'll bring my love to me Who knows Who knows Who knows it better than I That it's she who's keeping me alive Keeping the little girl as my goal Makes my life worth living you know Another day Another day Just another day I wanna live To share the love that only she can give And if she don't come on home I pray the lord will help me carry on Another day Another day Just another day

Welcome to the show the great finale's finally here I thank you for coming into my theatre of fear Welcome to the show, you're all witnesses you see A privileged invitation to the last rights of me
[Jonathon to his mother] Remember me? You can't save me Mama you never needed me No crimson king, look in my eye, you'll see Mama I'm lonely, it's only me, only me
[Jonathon to all] I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million eyes, of a million
[Jonathon to all] I am the prisoner of the paradise I dreamed The idol of a million lonely faces look at me Behind the mask of sorrow, four doors of doom behind my eyes I've got their footprints all across my crimson mind
[Jonathon to the king of mercy] Long live, long live, long live the king of mercy Long live, long live
[Jonathon to all] There is no love, to shelter me Only love, love set me free No love, to shelter me, only love, love set me free I was the warrior, with an anthem in my soul The idol of eight thousand lonely days of rage ago And remember me when it comes your time to choose Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true
[Jonathon to the king of mercy] [Jonathon to all] [Jonathon to his father] Red, crimson red, am I the invisible boy The strap on my back Red, crimson red, no I was never to be Only one crimson son, no it never was me
[Jonathon to all] Living in the limelight little did I know I was dying in the shadows and the mirror was my soul It was all I ever wanted, everything I dreamed But the dream became my nightmare and no-one could hear me scream With these six-strings, I make a noose To take my life, it's time to choose The headlines read of my suicide, of my suicide
[Jonathon to the king of mercy] Oh sweet silence, where is the sting I am no idol, no crimson king I'm the imposter, the world has seen My father was the idol, it was never me I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be The crimson idol of a million eyes
[Jonathon to all] No love, to shelter me, only love Love set me free No love, to shelter me, only love Love set me free

This bloody road remains a mystery. This sudden darkness fills the air. What are we waiting for? Won't anybody help us? What are we waiting for? We can't afford to be innocent stand up and face the enemy. It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible. This shattered dream you cannot justify. We're gonna scream until we're satisfied. What are we running for? We've got the right to be angry. What are we running for when there's nowhere we can run to anymore? We can't afford to be innocent stand up and face the enemy. It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible. And with the power of conviction there is no sacrifice. It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.

It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.
Will I be alone this morning Will I need my friends Something just to ease away the pain And now I never see the loneliness Behind my face I am just a prisoner to my faith
If I could only stand and stare in the mirror could I see One fallen hero with a face like me? And if I scream, could anybody hear me? If I smash the silence, you'll see what fame has done to me
Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely I'll never know if love's a lie Ooh - being crazy in paradise is easy Do you see the prisoners in my eyes?
Where's the love to shelter me Give me love, come set me free Where's the love, to shelter me Only love, love set me free Set me free
Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely I'll never know if love's a lie Ooh - being crazy in paradise is easy Do you see the prisoners in my eyes?
Where's the love to shelter me Give me love, come set me free Where's the love, to shelter me Only love, love set me free Set me free

The mind is grey,... like the city Packing in and overgrown Love is deep,... dig it out Standing in a hole alone Working for something,.. that one can never hold A place in the clouds. Your place to hide oh my oh
I'm flying away, away I'm driving away, away
Seeking new ways, before I miss it all
Dimitri,he talks to me Breaking news and building walls Selling us, what I dont need I never knew soap made you taller
So I'm riding away, away Hiding away, away
So much talk it makes no sense at all My senses gone
So I'm flying away, away Driving away, away
Passing old friends I don't miss at all
It doesn't hurt,.. when I bleed BUt memories they eat me I've seen it all before,.. Bring it on cause I'm no victim
Dying Dying

I lift my lips from kissing you To kiss the sky Cloud soft and blue And slow the sun melts down Into your golden words for me
I lift my hands from touching you To touch the wind that whispers through This twilight garden Turns into a world Where dreams are real
No-one will ever take your place I am lost in you No-one will ever take your place So in love with you
I lift my eyes from watching you To watch the star rise shine onto Your dreaming face and dreaming smile You're dreaming worlds for me
I lift my lips from kissing you And kiss the sky wide deepest blue And slow the moon swims up Into your golden words for me
No-one will ever take your place I am lost in you No-one will ever take your place So in love with you

Don't bang the drum Just let it come now.. Don't bang the drum...

Close your eyes Breathe slow we'll begin Close your eyes Breathe slow and we will begin To look together For the Pan within
Swing your hips Loose your head, and let it spin Swing your hips Loose you head, and let it spin And we will look together For the Pan within
Close your eyes Breathe slow and we will begin Close your eyes Breathe slow and we will begin To look together For the Pan within
Put your face in my window Breathe a night full of treasures The wind is delicious Sweet and wild with the promise of pleasure The stars are alive And nights like these Were born to be Sanctified by you and me Lovers, thieves, fools and pretenders And all we gotta do is surrender
Come with me On a journey under the skin Come with me On a journey under the skin And we will look together For the Pan within When to be with you Is not a sin When to be with you, oh just to be with you Is not a sin We will look together For the Pan within

A king without a sword
A land without a king
A truth without a voice
One song left to sing
One song to sing
A wise man told me there's something you should know
The way you judge a man is to look into his soul
And you'll soon see everything.
A voice from the past cried "Give peace a chance"
He paid our price now he's free at last
Imagine, we called him a dreamer!
How many times must good men die?
How many tears will the children cry?
'Til they suffer no more sadness
Stop the madness,
Oh, stop the madness.
If ashes are ashes and dust is dust
At our journey's end then return we must
To the sands of the shore
White doves in flight
Peace to all
But tell me why the peacemakers fall
Must we bury anymore?
The hush of the crowd as the horse rode by
A black lace veil hid the tears from her eyes
And we all wept in silence
How many times must good men die?
How many times will the children cry?
'Til they suffer no more sadness
Oh, stop the madness
Oh, stop all the madness.

Wish we hadn't messed up, now your heart is with hers
And I know that your love wasn't here to stay
I gave you all of mine but you gave it away
And now you're the one who hurts
You had to love someone else just to know your worth
But here's to us, here's to us, here's to us

We are gathered here today
To get through this thing called life
Electric word life
It means forever and that's a mighty long time
But I'm here To tell you
There's something else
The afterworld
A world of never ending happiness
You can always see the sun, day or night
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Hawkmoon 269
Like a desert needs rain
Like a town needs a name
I need your love.
Like a drifter needs a room
Hawkmoon
I need your love.
I need your love.
Like a rhythm unbroken
Like drums in the night
Like sweet soul music
Like sunlight
I need your love.
Like coming home
And you don't know where you've been
Like black coffee
Like nicotine
I need your love,
I need your love.
When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love
I need your love.
Like a Phoenix rising needs a holy tree
Like the sweet revenge
Of a bitter enemy
I need your love.
Like heat needs the sun
Like honey on her tongue
Like the muzzle of a gun
Like oxygen
I need your love,
I need your love.
When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love
I need your love.
Like thunder needs rain
Like a preacher needs pain
Like tongues of flame
Like a sweet stain
Need your love
I need your love.
Like a needle needs a vein
Like someone to blame
Like a thought unchained
Like a runaway train
Need your love,
I need your love.
Need your love
I need your love.
Like faith needs a doubt
Like a freeway out
Need your love.
Like powder needs a spark
Like lies need the dark
I need your love
I will never stop moving
We bruised the land , we sold our souls
I will never stop moving
(John Jones/ never stop moving....whole song is great).
great line~~did some of this last night~~no worries, all the negativity is finally gone...washed clean~~
my daughter used to sing it
Baby, I know you're hurting
Right now you feel like you could never
Love again
Now all I ask is for a chance
To prove that I love you
From the first day
That I saw your smiling face
Honey, I knew that we would
Be together forever
Ooh when I asked you out
You said no but I found out
Darling that you'd been hurt
You felt like you'd never love again
I deserve a try honey just once
Give me a chance and I'll prove this all wrong
You walked in, you were so quick to judge
But honey he' s nothing like me
[Chorus:]
I'll never break your heart
I'll never make you cry
I'd rather die than live without you
I'll give you all of me
Honey, that's no lie
[2x]
As time goes by
You will get to know me
A little more better
Girl that's the way love goes baby, baby
And I (I) know you're afraid (know you're afraid)
To let your feelings show (feelings show)
And I understand
Girl, it's time to let go (girl, it's time to let go because)
I deserve a try (try) honey
Just once (once)
Give me a chance (chance) and I'll prove this all wrong (wrong you walked)
You walked in, you were so quick to judge (quick to judge)
But honey he's nothing like me
Darling why can't you see
[Chorus (2x)]
[Bridge:]
No way, no how (I'll never break your heart girl, I'll never make you cry)
I swear (Oh I, oh I, I swear)
No way, no how (I'll never break your heart girl, I'll never make you cry)
[Chorus (3x)]
My only sunshine.

A change of scene, with no regrets,
A chance to watch, admire the distance,
Still occupied, though you forget.
Different colours, different shades,
Over each mistakes were made.
I took the blame.
Directionless so plain to see,
A loaded gun won't set you free.
So you say.
We'll share a drink and step outside,
An angry voice and one who cried,
'We'll give you everything and more,
The strain's too much, can't take much more.'
I've walked on water, run through fire,
Can't seem to feel it anymore.
It was me, waiting for me,
Hoping for something more,
Me, seeing me this time,
Hoping for something else.
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
I was there in the back stage,
When first light came around.
I grew up like a changeling,
To win the first time around.
I can see all the weakness.
I can pick all the faults.
Well I concede all the faith tests,
Just to stick in your throats.
31G, 31G, 31G
I hung around in your soundtrack,
To mirror all that you've done,
To find the right side of reason,
To kill the three lies for one,
I can see all the cold facts.
I can see through your eyes.
All this talk made no contact.
No matter how hard we tried.
31G, 31G, 31G
I can still hear the footsteps.
I can see only walls.
I slid into your man-traps,
With no hearing at all.
I just see contradiction,
Had to give up the fight,
Just to live in the past tense,
To make believe you were right.

It's never enough
However much I push it around
It's never enough
However much I make it out
It's never enough
It s Never enough
However much I do
However big I ever feel
It's never enough
Whatever I do to make it real
It's never enough
In any way I try to speak
It's never enough
Never enough
However much I try to speak
It's never enough
However much I'm falling down
It's never enough
However much I'm falling out
It's never enough
Whatever smile I smile the most
It's never enough
Never enough
However I smile
I smile the most
So let me hold it up
Just one more go
Holding it up for just once more
One more time to fill it up
One more time to kill
But whatever I do
It's never enough
It's never enough
It's never enough

I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. O. S
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?
You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good
So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. O. S
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

The First Time I Ever Saw You
You Had That Far Away Look In Your Eyes
And Heaven's Eyes Shined Down Upon You
And The Whole Room Filled Up With Life
Now The Cruel World It's Gonna Try And Change You
Try To Hang You Up And Mess With Your Pride
Now The Rich Just Try To Chain You
You Got To Keep Your Fire Burning Inside
Promise Me
You Won't Let Them Put Out Your Fire, Put Out Your FIre
Now, Sometimes The World Tries To Slap You
And It Seems To Love Watching You Fall
I Won't Lie To You, It's Gonna Happen
You Got To Pick Yourself Up And Move On
Promise Me
You Won't Let Them Put Out Your Fire, Put Out Your FIre
Which Star Will I Be Thinking Of Tonight, Tonight
Promise Me
You Won't Let Them Put Out Your Fire, Put Out Your FIre
Promise Me
(Why Don't You)
someone I could count
To pull me to my feet again
when I was in doubt
Oh now Mama, do you hear me?
I'm calling out your name
Oh now Mama, do you hear me?
I'm calling out your name,
I'm calling out your name
I'm the last cowboy in this town
Empty veins and my plastic broken crown
They said I swam the sea that ran around
They said I once was lost but now I'm truly found
And I know the place another way,
I feel, I feel no shame
Oh now Mama, do you hear my fear?
It's coming after me
I'm calling out your name,
I'm calling out your name
Stay with me, stay with me
Did you throw your heart away?
Oh I know just what I say
Did your phone cut in the way?
Being still downtown I say
And I know you ran away,
oh I know but I'm feeling okay
And I found love and fear won't go,
and I found love and feeling won't go
See you walk away, feeling okay now,
happy now, happy now?
Stay with me, stay with me, stay with me, stay with me
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
To treat me like you do
When you've laid 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
They will turn away no more
And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today
I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd 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
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Maybe sunshine, and maybe rain
But as for me I'll wait and see
And maybe it'll bring my love to me
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows it better than I
That it's she who's keeping me alive
Keeping the little girl as my goal
Makes my life worth living you know
Another day
Another day
Just another day
I wanna live
To share the love that only she can give
And if she don't come on home
I pray the lord will help me carry on
Another day
Another day
Just another day

I thank you for coming into my theatre of fear
Welcome to the show, you're all witnesses you see
A privileged invitation to the last rights of me
[Jonathon to his mother]
Remember me? You can't save me
Mama you never needed me
No crimson king, look in my eye, you'll see
Mama I'm lonely, it's only me, only me
[Jonathon to all]
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
The crimson idol of a million
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
The crimson idol of a million eyes, of a million
[Jonathon to all]
I am the prisoner of the paradise I dreamed
The idol of a million lonely faces look at me
Behind the mask of sorrow, four doors of doom behind my eyes
I've got their footprints all across my crimson mind
[Jonathon to the king of mercy]
Long live, long live, long live the king of mercy
Long live, long live
[Jonathon to all]
There is no love, to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
No love, to shelter me, only love, love set me free
I was the warrior, with an anthem in my soul
The idol of eight thousand lonely days of rage ago
And remember me when it comes your time to choose
Be careful what you wish for, it might just come true
[Jonathon to the king of mercy]
[Jonathon to all]
[Jonathon to his father]
Red, crimson red, am I the invisible boy
The strap on my back
Red, crimson red, no I was never to be
Only one crimson son, no it never was me
[Jonathon to all]
Living in the limelight little did I know
I was dying in the shadows and the mirror was my soul
It was all I ever wanted, everything I dreamed
But the dream became my nightmare and no-one could hear me scream
With these six-strings, I make a noose
To take my life, it's time to choose
The headlines read of my suicide, of my suicide
[Jonathon to the king of mercy]
Oh sweet silence, where is the sting
I am no idol, no crimson king
I'm the imposter, the world has seen
My father was the idol, it was never me
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
The crimson idol of a million
I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be
The crimson idol of a million eyes
[Jonathon to all]
No love, to shelter me, only love
Love set me free
No love, to shelter me, only love
Love set me free

This bloody road remains a mystery.
This sudden darkness fills the air.
What are we waiting for?
Won't anybody help us?
What are we waiting for?
We can't afford to be innocent
stand up and face the enemy.
It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.
This shattered dream you cannot justify.
We're gonna scream until we're satisfied.
What are we running for? We've got the right to be angry.
What are we running for when there's nowhere we can run to anymore?
We can't afford to be innocent
stand up and face the enemy.
It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.
And with the power of conviction there is no sacrifice.
It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.
Won't anybody help us?
What are we running for when there's nowhere
nowhere we can run to anymore?
We can't afford to be innocent
stand up and face the enemy.
It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.
And with the power of conviction there is no sacrifice.
It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.

stand up and face the enemy.

We can't afford to be innocent
stand up and face the enemy.
It's a do or die situation - we will be invincible.
Will I need my friends
Something just to ease away the pain
And now I never see the loneliness
Behind my face
I am just a prisoner to my faith
If I could only stand and stare in the mirror could I see
One fallen hero with a face like me?
And if I scream, could anybody hear me?
If I smash the silence, you'll see what fame has done to me
Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely
I'll never know if love's a lie
Ooh - being crazy in paradise is easy
Do you see the prisoners in my eyes?
Where's the love to shelter me
Give me love, come set me free
Where's the love, to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
Set me free
Kiss away the pain and leave me lonely
I'll never know if love's a lie
Ooh - being crazy in paradise is easy
Do you see the prisoners in my eyes?
Where's the love to shelter me
Give me love, come set me free
Where's the love, to shelter me
Only love, love set me free
Set me free

You think you're so cool
Why don't you just
Fuck off?!
Fires me right up sometimes lol
Packing in and overgrown
Love is deep,... dig it out
Standing in a hole alone
Working for something,.. that one can never hold
A place in the clouds.
Your place to hide oh my oh
I'm flying away, away
I'm driving away, away
Seeking new ways, before I miss it all
Dimitri,he talks to me
Breaking news and building walls
Selling us, what I dont need
I never knew soap made you taller
So I'm riding away, away
Hiding away, away
So much talk it makes no sense at all
My senses gone
So I'm flying away, away
Driving away, away
Passing old friends I don't miss at all
It doesn't hurt,.. when I bleed
BUt memories they eat me
I've seen it all before,..
Bring it on cause I'm no victim
Dying
Dying

To kiss the sky
Cloud soft and blue
And slow the sun melts down
Into your golden words for me
I lift my hands from touching you
To touch the wind that whispers through
This twilight garden
Turns into a world
Where dreams are real
No-one will ever take your place
I am lost in you
No-one will ever take your place
So in love with you
I lift my eyes from watching you
To watch the star rise shine onto
Your dreaming face and dreaming smile
You're dreaming worlds for me
I lift my lips from kissing you
And kiss the sky wide deepest blue
And slow the moon swims up
Into your golden words for me
No-one will ever take your place
I am lost in you
No-one will ever take your place
So in love with you
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
Your father stood here before you
I can see his ghost explore you
I can feel the sea implore you
Not to pass on by
Not to walk on by
And not to try
Just to let it come
Don't bang the drum
Just let it come
Don't bang the drum
Just let it come
Don't bang the drum
Do you know how to let it come now?
Don't bang the drum
Just let it come now..
Don't bang the drum...

On a journey beneath the skin
Come with me
On a journey under the skin
We will look together
For the Pan within
Close your eyes
Breathe slow we'll begin
Close your eyes
Breathe slow and we will begin
To look together
For the Pan within
Swing your hips
Loose your head, and let it spin
Swing your hips
Loose you head, and let it spin
And we will look together
For the Pan within
Close your eyes
Breathe slow and we will begin
Close your eyes
Breathe slow and we will begin
To look together
For the Pan within
Put your face in my window
Breathe a night full of treasures
The wind is delicious
Sweet and wild with the promise of pleasure
The stars are alive
And nights like these
Were born to be
Sanctified by you and me
Lovers, thieves, fools and pretenders
And all we gotta do is surrender
Come with me
On a journey under the skin
Come with me
On a journey under the skin
And we will look together
For the Pan within
When to be with you
Is not a sin
When to be with you, oh just to be with you
Is not a sin
We will look together
For the Pan within
