Stay Visible Lyrics

2 ContributorsStay Visible LyricsThe road opens wide
There is space here for two of us
If I could slip under the wire
We'd wait here
Just stay here a while
Slumped, the body's tired and this fear
Never lets me sleep
Your smile
This trial elates
In your eyes
I see mothers open gates
If fortune could smile
There'd be room here for two of us
And I would burn myself through the wires
With hate
Concentrated
Unearthed
Disparate
In time
Once in a while
If peace held for two of us
If we could show mercy a while
With patience
Transcending
This coldness, never ending, thru time
And if home still matters
And if these bones
Were not so shattered
What state so desperate
Within a hollow shell, in a forgotten state
Come tear the dirt from my eyes

Home Lyrics

2 ContributorsHome LyricsGod gave me travelling shoes
God gave me the wanderer's eye
God gave a few gold coins to help me to the other side
Looked around and said - be careful how the small things grow
God gives me travelling shoes
And I knew that it was time to go
He then sent in the ship at night
To take me to the hidden port
Found me the key at last
To open up the prison door
Brought down blackbirds wings
Gifted me with beggars eyes
Sent in the jackals
To tell me I should say bye, bye, bye
I'm home
Home
Home, Home, Home
And I'm home
Home
Home, Home, Home
But I'm miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Oh where can I hide ?
God gave me one last chance
Gave me one last reprieve
He then gave me hunger
Gave me the air to breath
Gave one suit case
Gave one last goodbye
Gave me travelling shoes
And without them I would surely die, die ,die
Home
Home
Home, Home, Home
Home
Home
Home, Home, Home
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Miles and miles and miles and miles and miles away
Oh where do I go ?
Oh where can I hide ?
Home
Home
Home, Home, Home
And I'm home
Home
Home, Home, Home
And I'm miles away
Miles away
Im running far away

Stranger Lyrics

2 ContributorsStranger LyricsTell me why
Do you know what were looking for?
Any truth in the rumours I ignore?
Tell me why, I still deny?
Anytime secrets, in every sound
I can keep my feet up off the ground
I'm in the air, reeling everywhere
There's something new and I must say
It makes me feel so super real. Just look and you'll find
We are drifting through space and time
Stranger, beautiful stranger
Come tell me if you are, the silent star, Explain!
Stranger, beautiful stranger
I wonder if you are the silent star
Explain
Tell me why, do you know what we're looking for?
Any truth in the rumours I ignore?
Then tell me why I still deny?
Summertime
Winter
Moonlight
And the Sun
I get the feeling this has just begun
And yet it feels so super real
Look and you'll find
We are moving through space and time
Tell me who you are
Tell me who you are

Different World (Taormina.Me) Lyrics

1 ContributorDifferent World LyricsIts all right
Its all right
Let me go high
Let me go high
Let me go high into a different world
Let me go high into a different world
Its alright, its okay
To believe in something
You find the spark inside yourself
It begins from nothing
From the man of the cave
To the soul of the brave
For the love of God
Let me go now
Let me go high into a different world
Let me go high into a different world
High, to a different world
Let me go high, to a different world
Its alright, its okay
To believe in something
But if it falls between ourselves
Could kill like nothing
From the man of the cave
To the soul of the brave
For the love of God
Let me close now
Let me go high into a different world
Let me go high into a different world
Let me go high into a different world
High into a different world

Underneath the Ice Lyrics

2 ContributorsUnderneath The Ice LyricsAlthough every building's standing tall
I look to you as something that much greater
I searched through all religion, in the hope that something would entice
I dreamed of crossing bridges, mountain ridges
From the Pole to the Equator
But when I saw you skating by â€" I was underneath the ice
I woke up staring at the sun
I searched for you in every hidden angle
All through my imagination, every face and place, every memory inside
High above the clouds they say there are galaxies and other destinations...
And then I saw you skating by - but I was underneath the ice
Today I dreamed another dream, predestined to come and save me... later
Today I dreamed another dream that you would come to take me home

A Life Shot in Black & White Lyrics

2 ContributorsA Life Shot In Black And White LyricsA life shot in black and white
Lays me down
Takes to me where
Words still fail me, yes!
A life shot in black and white
Shames me now, as it takes us there
Where nothing can break this
Toiling back, I am still ashen
I keep falling back
On what I believe still matters
I'm slamming on the brakes
And like a haunted child, I was born to break
A life shot in black and white
Throws me down, then raises me
With colours still bleeding... yes
It's all there in black and white
We've seen it now, seen it there
And the moment's not leaving
A life shot in black and white
Stares me down, take me where
And like doves we won't leave never
We're still here in black and white

Kiss the Ground Lyrics

3 ContributorsKiss The Ground LyricsI'm in a golden temple
In a bombed out street
Feel the rough and tumble
Down where the borders meet
I hear a sandstorm falling
Down where the tears have dried
And there's a west wind calling
But I get no reply
And I kiss the ground
I kiss the ground
Nothing around
There is no hidden karma
There is no sacred plight
There is no special armour
To take me through the night
I kiss the ground
I kiss the ground
Nothing around
I kiss the ground
I kiss the ground
Nothing around
Into the space between us
Into the words that say
That every law demeans us
Then every price you pay
There is no hidden karma
There is no sacred plight
There is no special armour
To take me through the night
I kiss the ground
I kiss the ground
Nothing around
I kiss the ground
I kiss the ground
I kiss the ground
Nothing around
I kiss the ground
There is no manna-mania
There is no banquet here
There is only ghettoes
I kiss the ground
