Track Name: One For Your Troubles: I'll drink one for your sorrows and one for your heart,
Feels like i'm blowing apart,
I'll drink for your troubles I'll take off my hat,
One step forward and two steps back,
I'll drink one for the times just avoiding the crowds,
Times well spent staring at clouds,
Two for the guilt and none for the pride,
That's the last time I'll hide.

There was time to reflect as I said my fair wells
To the land that I loved and knew so well,
So I thought of the mountains and where the streams flowed,
Then I thought about having one more for the road,
One for the torment and one for your hurt,
One for my shoes and one for my shirt,
One for the things that were best left inside,
That's the last time I'll hide,

Don't regret mistakes yet to be made,
Hindsight bares no gifts, if instead remain afraid,
Instincts are just forwards to a book that isn't written,
And mere existence no excuse to carry on not living,
Life is but your prison, inside which, no one listens,
No need to fear what no hears,
Can't find what isn't missing,
Life is but your prison, inside which, no one listens.
Track Name: Who You Tryin' To Kid?: Tell me what it's like,
On the other side,
Come on, you can tell me,
You know you can trust me,
Is the grass greener?
Is the air you breath, cleaner?
Did you find,
What you were looking for,
All this time,
Or are you still no so sure?,
I can always tell, From the truth,
And a lie told well,
And it's just as well,
It's no surprise, you try to pull the wool over my eyes,

I have had no sleep,
In these darkened weeks,
It's taking all it's tolls,
And left my dreams with holes,
Are you there somewhere?,
I can't see for the glare,
Thought I heard a noise,
I thought it was your voice,
So who you tryin' to kid?,
With your trickery, I can see,
Right through the shit,
I can always tell,
From the truth, and a lie told well,
So who you tryin' to kid?,
With your trickery, I can see right through the shit.
Track Name: It's Time (other version): A dear friend once told me something I'll not forget,
He said the things that you don't do are the ones you regret,
It's an open field book,
The hope on a scared look,
It's an infinite list you'll miss,
The chance that you'll feel good,
It the begging question that you don't know to ask,
It's all of the answers that you've heard in the past,
And now this noisy town is dragging you down,
The people you meet are all weights round your feet,

It's time,

So your caught in a tempest of worries and hate,
You know you got to get out but you're just told to wait,
You're confused and you're dizzy,
Then panic sets in,
The water Is rising and you can't swim,
It's the nightmare scenario,
That you had in your dream,
You know, the one where your drowning,
And you can't seem to breath,
So you wriggle and you writhe,
And you open your eyes,
And you take a deep breath,
And then you realise,

It's time.

It's in the breath of a cool breeze,
In a forest of green trees,
If you catch you a dream ghost,
Then keep it for me please,
It's the darkness in daytime,
It's the light in the night,
It's like the sharpness of Einstein
Is conveyed though your mind,
It's the flashing beacon,
That you've been seeking,
All alone on your own, on your way home,
Cause you've been sleeping.
So you've come pretty far,
And you know who you are,
So you look to the skies,
For a wink from your star 'n,

It's time.
Track Name: Screaming Out: Spending all our time trying to figure out,
Who we are,
Mending bridges, dowsing flames,
It's a fine savior for you,
Collecting shells, forgetting names,
Screaming out desperately, just to play games,
On the floor just lying around,
Screaming at molecules floating about,

Cause no body explained,
It could be that hard,
Just taken for a fool,
In a world with no rules,
Track Name: Between The Bars: Drink up baby, stay up all night,
With the things you could do you won't but you might,
The potential you'll be,
That you'll never see,
The promises you'll only make,
Drink up with me now,
Forget all about, the pressures of days,
Do what I say, and I'll make you okay,
And drive them away,
The image is stuck in your head.

The people you've been before,
That you don't want around anymore,
That you push and shove they won't bend to your will,
I'll keep them still.

Drink up baby, look at the stars,
I'll kiss you again, between the bars,
Where i'm seeing you there, with your hands in the air,
Waiting to finally be caught,
Drink up one more time, And I'll make you mine,
Keep you apart, deep in my heart,
Separate from the rest, but I like you the best,
And keep the things you forgot.

The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore,
That you push and shove, they won't bend to you will,
I'll keep them still.
Track Name: Chantepleur: I am tired, the world spins too fast,
Nothing ever seems to last,
Or maybe I'm trying, to hard to keep,
Things within my grasp,
Or maybe it's not me,
And I'm not tired after all,
It could be illusions,
Or am I just about to fall,
Into a portrait of a horse hanging on the wall.
Track Name: Inside Out: He was inside out, then he left the place,
Stumbling around trying to hide his face,
He sits there alone on the cliff edge,
Watching the waves roll in,
And all of the sounds he can hear in his head,
Combined with the thoughts of his mind,
Are stopping his world going,
And all that he touches with his hands,
Or sees with his eyes,
Like everything else throughout the land,
Which life has terrorised,
It slowly turns to sand,

So never mind this and never mind that,
What you got hear is unique,
To have a clear mind here,
And to never find that your troubles are making you weak,
If you've got one sorrow making you feel right,
Then you've got one path to follow so follow the light,
If you've got one sorrow making you feel right,
Then you know which path to follow, so follow the light,

No words can appologise enough,
And darkness has no fear,
No expression can convey how tough,
The cosmos sheds a tear,
For only it has seen the wrong,
As darkness blinds his eyes,
But cracks of light shine through the storm,
For life to terrorise,
No question that can answer this,
Cause darkness has no fear,
The fear it's self is ignorant bliss,
Is this just why he's here?

No time now to be fake,
He's got one last chance,
Cause the storm isn't gonna end that soon,
It's up to him to make a difference,
And in his space to make room,
How many times will the rocks crash,
And the sky fall down,?
And how many times will the darkness fight with the light?
How long will it take to get his feet back on the ground,?
And how many sorrows must he catch until he feels right?
It's the sandstorm creation,
Guiding him to the light,
He touches his body with his hands,
And slowly turns to sand.
Track Name: Shining Out: Why do you do the things you do,
To me to you.
I just can't understand it,
Inside your brain is all pain.
Isn't it isn't it,
Well that's such a shame,
Cause you've got promise my friend,
The power to flower up,
If you could utilise it,

The light comes shining out of you,
Track Name: This Box: Well it's hard to grasp the past,
And all those moments that we had,
In our hands we clasp the times that we laughed,
When you said the love you had for me would never die,
Your tongue was so sweet it couldn't lie,
But like all good things that come to an end,
Memories make them Justified,

Over grace me, lay me down,
Just inside the darkness,
Where else could you be found,
All those sunshiny days,
That wouldn't last,
They wouldn't last,

So I'm taking this box,
Back to where I found it,
And I'm leaving it there, for you.

I thought I saw you backing out the door,
Like I did before,
But the shadow wasn't your's,
In slow mode,
Creeping and sliding all over the floor,
Now you've said what you came here to say,
And I'm glad that you have,
But I'm turning around in my head,
And I'm counting down numbers instead,
So I'm back flipping forwards,
Through summer salts, bath salts and herbs,
To explain to the masses,
What can't be explained just with words,
And I'm leaving a sign on my door,
That says please don't disturb,

Over grace me, lay me down,
Just inside the darkness,
Where else could you be found,
All those sunshiny days,
That wouldn't last,
Track Name: Still Asleep: Can't you tell that it's well understood?
Leave it alone honey,
It's not for you to be meddling with,
It's bigger than you and me,
It's bigger than this,
Who you're with and I just can't believe,
How heavy it is, and how deep it can be,
Can't you see, can't you tell, that we're all tangled up,
Head over heals honey,
Like the moment that you wake up from a dream,
Rubbing your eyes to see, if you're still asleep,
You're not sure, but if this is all real,
Then it's striking a chord with me,

Don't be daft you can't carry that all,
On your own two shoulders, I thought,
It's funny how the light plays tricks on you,
When it's shining through things you forgot,

And just then the mountains move aside like a curtain,
And the clouds all disappear,
And a voice whispers from far away,
Fear it's self is the only thing left to fear,
And the whispers turn into a song to sing,
It's the only sound you can hear,

With our senses all stripped and our hearts in our hands,
Floating around on clouds, you start to forget,
What was said , it was clear in your head,
But it's drowned in the mystical sound,
The sound of your heart in your hand,
In this whispering land,
Has opened your eyes honey, you're not on your own,
Anymore like you were before,
Beautiful clarity,

Don't be daft you can't carry that all,
On your own two shoulders I said,
It's funny how the light plays tricks on you,
When it's shining through things in your head,
Don't be daft you can't carry that all,
On your own two shoulders I thought,
It's funny how the light plays tricks on you,
When it's shining through things you forgot.
