“The Hunger”
When I was a little boy
I would dream that I could fly
now my years they’re all numbered
from one to forty-five
All my hopes they now ride
on the wind and against the tide
with all my strengths I still wonder
If I’ll ever find my stride
What keeps me going
and why do I even try
and then I remember
the hunger deep inside
All my heroes they’re forgotten
they are gone and dead inside
all my memories gather round her
she’s my love and she’s my pride
What keeps me going
and why do I even try
and then I remember
the hunger deep inside
When I was a little boy
I would dream that I could fly
now my days they’re all numbered
from one to forty-five

Melting Down

“Melting Down”
I can barely breathe now - the air is getting thin
I no longer know how – my mind is closing in
I’m melting down as the world keeps spinning round
things have gone too far now - waking up I see
life inside a bug jar - collapsing down on me
I’m melting down as the world keeps spinning round
but I can still be found in the light of your eyes
As all my memories are erased from my mind
they will still live on here within a song
and you know I loved every moment I spent with you
I’d do it all again, exactly just the same
I just don’t remember or even know your names
but there’s something still familiar, the music still remains
I’m melting down but the world still looks the same
It’s time to say goodbye now I’m falling back through time
even if I knew how I could never cross that line
I’m melting down as the flowers still bloom
but I will be found in the light of your eyes
As all my memories are erased from my mind
they will still live on here within a song
and you know I loved every moment I spent with you
I’d do it all again, exactly just the same

“Timeless”
There is no time
Time for this
There is no time
Time for this
I remember the day your eyes met mine
There under the stars so far away
I never thought the day would come
we would have to say goodbye
embrace the dance as memories move on
There is no time
Time for this
There is no time for this

Life is the Dream
05:38
|

On the edge of all desire
where belief and truth conspire
Is a place we’re free to live in clarity
and it’s the path that source requires
So raise the oars and let the currents flow
Where this river goes, there’s no need to row
We separate ourselves from our futures past
And moving on we hope to find a love that always last
So raise the oars and let the currents flow
Where the river goes you don’t need to know
if you just let go and float on down the stream
you’d realize life is the dream
We separate ourselves from the bitter past
And making peace with where we are, is the way to make love last
The path of least resistance
you know what it is you need to do
just take a deep breath and follow your own intuition
and step by step it will surely guide you on your way home
So raise the oars and let the currents flow - forever
As the river rolls you don’t need to know - forever
if you just let go and float on down the stream - forever
you’d realize life is the dream

“Emotional Vampires”
Nothing from nothing
That’s what you give
You’ve got to take
Something from something
That’s how you live
So many people only want to have their way
they’ll make you think, they’re giving it all away
disguised as givers they will take just what they need
to further themselves along the way
Nothing from nothing
what’s left to give?
You got to get a share of my something
That’s what it means to live
Nothing from nothing
That’s what you give
You’ve got to take
Something from something
That’s how you live
So many people only want to have their way
they’ll make you think, they’re giving it all away
disguised as givers they will take just what they need
to further themselves along the way
It’s time to take back the control you gave away
from those that tried to drain your heart
Nothing from nothing
what’s left to give?
You got to get a share of my something
That’s what it means to live

Just a Man
04:00

It’s just the work I do every day
there’s no illusions or games we have to play
whoever said you have to be a star
to love your life and live just as you are
Expression, it’s the only way
to move on from the past and give your love away
With the stars in my eyes
reaching out for your hand
with these scars my soul cries
here I am just a man
I never said I was the best
but with this vision I could never really rest
Yes it’s all that I can be
and I’m not afraid to let
to let you see - all of me
As imperfect as I am
standing tall I’ll walk my way
through each day
With the stars in my eyes
reaching out for your hand
with these scars my soul cries
here I am just a man
It’s just the work I do every day
there’s no illusions or games we have to play

“Dreaming Out Loud”
For the first time in years I can feel
For the first time I’ve come around
and I can breathe the air
I’m Dreaming out loud
for the first time I’ve opened my eyes
sometimes the bottle
can drown out the dream
I’m Dreaming out loud
straight through the clouds and the skies
with a kiss, grace falls at your feet
so many memories
they seemed to have vanished in the haze
I know you’ll grow
I’m Dreaming out loud
for the first time I’ve opened my eyes
Close the door
and turn the key
I’m Dreaming out loud
there’s so much of life to give
