In Search Of Lost Planets (Part Two) 06:29
lyrics
buy track
There was a passage to the stars A secret path we could call ours Locked far away within a dream The path no longer can be seen And as I'm staring down the sun Staring down the barrel of my gun I'll cross the ocean to the blue Go somewhere far away with you Cross the stars and reach the moon Got to see you Cross the ocean blue Got to reach you Got to be with you The passage to the stars Is there for us to roam You can wander in the dark But don't wander on your own Shadowed by the past Don't leave me all alone Playing Oh the wind's so high today Saying things We should have said before Cast your mind with mine Into a dream Float with me in my solid state And free me Looking into each other's seashell eyes Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Another Time, Another Place 03:26
lyrics

The sun shall depart As in sets the dark I saw our reflections Dance in the stars As ink stained the sky As day turned to night I'm passing each moment Lost in your eyes Another time, another place Where time will be ours Another mind, behind your face Your dreams fill the stars Indigo rain Washed over the town Darkens my window Falls to the ground Don't be afraid The madness shall fade And I'll be beside you To bring you the day Another time, another place We were meant to be Another mind, behind your face Our love is so real

Lullaby 03:33
lyrics

Lullaby Close my eyes Lullaby When they're open There's nothing to see But when they're closed I'm safe in my dreams Lullaby Touch the skies Lullaby On the earth I'm a clown to the crowd What will you do When your clown's on a cloud Who will you screw When your clown's underground Lullaby Make me fly Lullaby

Crustacean Bay 02:20
lyrics

Water sweeps the sandy beaches Of Crustacean Bay The lobster's growing stronger Growing larger by the day One day he'll be big enough To rule Crustacean Bay The ruler of the ocean bed A king to all who come his way A deity strong and wise The stars that fill his eyes With bluest skies Scurrying and claws wide open On Crustacean Bay Building up his appetite And searching for his prey One day he'll be strong enough To rule Crustacean Bay The governor of dreams we had And dreams that yet shall come our way A deity to the sea Of blue and deeper green The ruler of the deep

Twin Suns 03:30
lyrics
buy track
I carved your name into the wall Cause it's not the same without you here at all And smashed my head against the door Lying in the darkness with my pistol drawn I watch the shadows dance and ball Throwing reflections in an empty hall And now I long for just one more For one more signal or for you to call I can't be blamed for my reactions To whatever happens I'll be here tomorrow Hoping to kill my sorrows I'm not the same as last December As far as I remember Will you be here to mend me From self destructive memories I cut your name into my arm (Cut your name into my arm) I know that you could never do me harm I burn myself just like a star (Burn myself just like a star) Forever burning till I lose the path A black hole shall eat my heart (Black hole shall eat my heart) Lost in orbit round a place so dark And now I long to wander far (Now I long to wander far) I hope you and I will become twin suns I left a message in a bottle In a sea of sorrows Hoping it will reach you How I truly need you I'm not the same as last April As far as I am able Will you be here to keep me From self destructive feelings I cut your name into my heart I knew I loved you from the start

The Martian 01:45

I'm the Martian and I hail from Mars If found return me to the stars For I'm an extra terrestrial being Sent to Earth by the alien queen There's alot to be said about oceans There's alot to be said about trees There's alot to be said about wildlife But there's more to be said about me A small step for an alien man A giant leap for our alien clan The first Martian to play the guitar The very first Martian rockstar There's alot to be said about arpeggios There's alot to be said about chords There's alot to be said about solos To the cosmos, we shall be absorbed

Not Alone 03:23
lyrics
buy track
Lost in skies of ebony Driving somewhere heavenly Eyes upon a moonlit road You're my favourite melody And you're my only remedy Let me never feel alone Take me home Take me home All this weight upon my chest Crushed me heavily You make it go I'm not alone We're so different from the rest But it's ok with me Won't you play with me Spend the day with me Don't drift away from me And then hopefully (And then hopefully) In your sweetest dreams (In your sweetest dreams) Let them never go away (Let them never go away) Or be taken by decay (Or be taken by decay) Watch the morning come our way And all the memories of the days That we'll keep as we grow old You turned the night into the day All I need to do is hold You in my mind There's a light that shines (There's a light that shines) (Light that shines) From an ebony sky (From an ebony sky) There's a light so bright (There's a light so bright) I can make it ours tonight I'm no longer alone (Across the oceans oh so blue) (Take me home) Take me home Take me home Take me home (I see the stars shine over you) (Take me home) Take me home Make them go Take me home

Big Mistake 02:58
lyrics
buy track
Roses falling round you Can't go on without you Pretty words you sent my way Hope they never go away To the darkest ocean To bury lost emotions Won't you let them live again One more mistake could be the end Nothing's standing in my way I can take myself away Where no one goes Only you can make me stay You can brighten out the day Like no one knows When cold winds blow They'll bring me snow Watched the tide was turning Watched the sky was burning Now I see my big mistake Won't you give me one more day Now I see my big mistake Won't you walk with me today

What They Say 02:08
lyrics
buy track
They say I'll lose you You say it isn't so If I could choose to I'd never let you go And even when I'm away I'm with you more every day They say I'm no one A shadow to the sun But I'll be your lantern If darker days should come Another fool on the hill I'm out of time left to kill But if you'll talk to me still Give me a sign An empty heart to be filled Don't leave me crying/dying Another day here and gone In my mind, all alone So say you'll love me You know I love you so The stars above me They're falling in the snow And should the stars disappear I'll keep away all your fears I'll wipe away all your tears Say you'll be mine

Bench 02:59

Meet me on a bench in the park Meet me at dark Let me give you my heart And looking you deep in your eyes Take me tonight Take me tonight Walk me to the place where you go When you're feeling low Somewhere nobody knows And looking me deep in my eyes Say it's alright Know it's alright You better not let me disappear Need you to be here Let me make it so clear Disappearing ink down the drain Bringing me rain Bringing me pain So meet me on a bench in the park Meet me at dark Let me give you my heart Looking deep in each others' eyes Say it's alright Know it's alright

Day 315 09:55
lyrics
buy track
Day 315 The door is shut There are no windows The door is shut Exhaling fumes of silver Condensing on the table top He stubs out the cigarette The air rich with Benson & Hedges tobacco There sits a small box In the middle of the table His lifeline His blood His existence He opens the box And takes out another one Lighting it he remembers He remembers why he is here A truth better forgotten Day 315 The door is shut There are no windows The door is shut Only a wild west hero Who played a villain's game Who wore a vulture's feathers Who wore a lion's mane Only a breath from Heaven Only a step from Hell He packs his bags for Eden And casts an evil spell He remembers a dream He was once a good person There was a light in the sky And a trap door that led underground He woke up in a dark room Is this what you want? Is this your lifeline? Is this your blood? Is this your existence? Day 315? The ashes lay flat on cold glass The door is shut There are no windows The door is shut The tall bottle beside the box Standing like a proud soldier Beside his noble steed About to ride to war Meanwhile the war has begun The blood has been spilt Spilt down the man's throat Quenching his ever growing thirst His ever growing lust He takes a swig Of the poignant but clear Absinthe As he takes another drag Of his cigarette He is thirsty And there stands Beside the box in the middle of the table His blood His lifeline His existence He takes another swig of the bottle Then he opens the box And takes out another one Day 315 The door is shut There are no windows The door is shut Day 315 The door is shut There are no windows This is what you want This is your lifeline This is your blood This is your existence Day 315 The door is shut There are no windows The door is shut
