The story begins... Free

Dream a dream, sow a song.
Let words wrap, Let stories form.
Be it the old man, the young guy, or the child in pram.
As they wish a wish, they wish to be.
As they see the sights, only they wanna see.
As foil burns dark, their senses awake.
As fresh as a brand new day.
The newness sets before it’s dawned.
The writer peddles himself for a song.
As he sings without a crib
for his child, you don’t listen.
Now the days seem longer,
Take too long to end.
Take this life’s trajectory,
All across the bend.
The seer sees, but too close.
The elephantine memory fades once more.
History becomes legend, Legend fork lore.
And the young man’s tale, a fable, to be told.
Feeling scared asking your name;
Don’t know which group you belong.
It ain’t easy to pretend
that you are one of us
when you’re not.
All the freedom that you need,
is inside..
Free.
Know that we’ve been so wronged.
Know that we’ve been so right.
Know that you have been a friend.
Tonight, I'll fly
So high..
All the freedom that you need,
is inside..
Free.

Light

Oh, I see the light
that's shining in the sky
Know that you don't fear the rain
Strange insights, life's got for me
I'm always right, become a control freak

Sweet Despair (2006)
04:27
|

|
Say the words that you want me to hear.
Say your will, cause you don’t have no fear.
I need a friend to keep me warm.
I need my sweet friend despair.
Lay down, do what you do.
Things you want me to.
I need a friend to keep me warm.
I need my sweet friend despair.
I am fading.
My child, I'm failing.
I need a friend to keep me warm.
I need my sweet friend despair.

Dazed and Confused

Dazed and Confused
is my mind,
with thoughts of you
Sweet lazy life,
been leading for a while
with thoughts of you.
Seen dusk before,
Now it's never alive.
I have been too late again.
I don't mind the emptiness.
I wish that I could fly away.
Or climb so high..

Fly Away
03:58

Blue moon is shining in the sky.
It wants to come in but it’s blinding, the light.
The old man wants me to lift him on my shoulder.
The mountain's high, I just can’t seem to reach.
I wish I'd, Fly away.
Rainbows in the sky, can’t you see?
All the colours that are there for you to feel.
Bubbles in the brooks, Birds in the trees.
The promised land is there,
For me?
Sometimes I, Fly away.
I can’t seem to find the way from here.
The old man’s left me, though it didn’t, then appear.
The future’s uncertain, a certain calm prevails.

Travelling Blues

I am travelling
to far off lands
mistaken places
I’ve been to.
I am climbing
the mountains of dreams.
As you see the light -
The different hues of colours
you’ve often seen.
See less clearly,
you need to have a tunnel vision.
I’m wishing,
the moon beams travel far and wide
and I see more.
Oh! Look at the way she goes.
Tear trails down my spine..
Down your face, I cried.
You don’t believe
when I say too softly.
A little late
A little lately
Cause I’m still travelling
Travelling

Father Monologue (2006)

Little boy you've been dreaming too long,
Don't you know I laid a path ahead for you.
You're fooling with your fuzzy dreams,
Aim higher.
Don't you know I need you too..
Have I been wasting time?
Born again, my little one
You're squealing but I got a song for you.
Go sleeping till you're fresh enough.
Awaken now. You've got to face the blues.
Have I been wasting time?
Been wasting all my time on you
Been hoping you would learn a trick or two.
And now you're walking up to me
You're saying you don't know if I have you.
You?!

Puppets and paupers
and the little boy who walks with them,
Can you see?
The ones who have,
The ones who don’t,
The ones who are one of us still waiting.
You agree with much deceit with much belief
with bits still churning.
I declare, “Puppets and paupers is who we are
It’s who we’ll be.”
Can’t you see?

To Seek Is To Lie
03:44

Holding inside my heart
Melting away
It’s time, I’m seeking
Find me I’m lost again
I’ve been waiting
Losing my own kind
I’m still hesitating
What’s yours and what is mine
Wishes I'm granting
Don't you be this way
This fame, this love I’m seeking
Won’t it too go away
I’m still home
You’ve been near
I’m still seeking
But you,
Disappear

As I stare across the room
Rather long
Feeling square
As I look down at my toes
Feeling soft
Looking great
And my memories stare right back again.
A mellow day often ends the same.
See?
Again!
Seems like time gets lost in space,
So you know how far you’ll be.
When I dream, I see strange lands,
Strange lands I need to see for me.
Wishing wells are drying up
the lands are parched
there is no hope
You see,
There’s no "me".
Open window, rain comes in
You feel alone
You’ve got no one to blame.
Say it to me.
And the temple bells still chime
The little boy is left in his little world.

Away

Hey, I’am a little bit of trouble
Know you’ve been so patient
So I should just go ahead and say.
This, won’t go on forever
And I will change my measure
Whisper any other way.
Run, far away.
I’ll be that way if you let me remain.
Still remember the time,
You had said
you’d never leave.
Advices washing down my ear,
and I say,
let me think again,
On my own.

Shotgun
Was another Sunday afternoon in bed,
But things were never gonna be the same again.
He had come in with a shotgun in his hands,
He kissed her, and she never lived again.
Mmmmm
Grew up together having fun , darting stones.
Still water forming circles which would shape the way they’d grow up to be.
Ragged dolls with broken heads were their only friends.
Their cold eyes never showed a trace of innocence.
Mmmmm
I can remember waiting,
watching the world
change before my eyes.
All the scars that you gave me.
I treasure them dearer than my life.
Mmmm

Home.
Mother, “ I’am waiting,
I'm patient. You’ve been so late,
I’am alone.”
Son, “You’ve been gone too long,
I’ve been waiting.
Say that you’ll be
home again soon.”
Home.(is where I’ll be)
Home .
It’s been raining shadows,
The sun’s out,
It’s clear enough for me to see the light,
And I know it’s right for me to be moving on.
I’ve been
losing the battles I’am playing
with my mind.
I need to let it go.
Let it go.
Move on.
Home (I’ll sing a song , I’ll write a tune)
Home
