The grass is not as green as once
The trees are slayed down one by one
Fragile we stand in some shade
Holding breath at many waste
My lungs can’t breathe
My eyes can’t see
The devil speaks in God’s name
Fooled some man to join the game
He works all day and night to see
With pleasure how we destroy we
How did we get here ?
How did we get here ?
How did we get here ?
They took for master an evil reign
They hope to live in lust & fame
It’s funny that they can’t see
Fire’s among what awaits them
Read & write it’s divine right
Avoid the sins, thicken your skin
Though the shadow’s real & clear
Forgive yourself, forget your fears
The time has come
The time has come now
Act & see the dawn is near
Will light the path that was once so dear
After this dark that’s blinding us
A new light will shine on us
Wake up and rise your tired eyes
Wake up and rise your tired eyes

Promises, Promises
You knock upon my door
May flowers growin’ strong
The sun shines on my soul
Oh better life, understanding’s
Never quite A-shore
Drowned in lie, felt sorrow
Still feel the strong winds blow
The tree was strong and high
Far over the hills
That’s where I’m heading to
To feel like a better man
Runnin’ low, runnin’ hi
I’m runnin’ out of time
Screamin’ loud, adjusted tie
Lvin’ the dreamin’ lie
So promises, promises
Soon flew out through my window
Autumn leaves fallin’ down
With the heaviest sound
The tree soon was slayed down
Far behind buildings
No place to head to now
Oh never a Better Man
Better man ...
The tree was lyin’ down
Below a rainy sky
Flowers growin’ aside
Still hope to feel like
A Better man

On The Rise

Many things hurt in this World
Oh I need your love just to rise
And every morning is a fight
Oh I need your love just to rise
It’s a hard World to get by
Only your love will keep me on the rise
Makes me wanna see the changes
That I want to be
Loneliness is a burden
You need to carry in your soul
And act for something better,
Marginal to the other
No, I won’t wait to be gone
To try my best
Oh to make you wanna see
All the changes out there to be
And I want you to see
Oooohhhhh
We’re given time on this soil
We’re given souls not to spoil
And everyone around you
Is a stranger with a heart
Just keep faith in yourself
No matter the weather
See the change and be that change
Find a clear way out of the mist
Put yourself on the rise
OOooohhhhhh

Such a heavy heart
To carry around
Cos’ now you’re gone
And I’m sitting here all alone
Earth and golden hair
In some cold underground
How could you
Slip away from my sight
Hope it is just a phase
Oh my love, my whole
It just seems there’s no
Other way so we've seen it all
Spent oh 5 years
To carry each other
Now times are new
And it’s 10 000 miles from me to you
So young to meet and fall in love
A sacred heart like there’s nothing above
Now times are new, times are sad and blue
Hope it is just a phase
Oh my love, my whole
It just seems there’s no
Other way so we've seen it all
Time parts lovers
Time to meet others
But there'll be times again
At the end of the road
And to your desire to be free
I could just say
Fly my tree

The Road To Nowhere

Times have changed in so many ways
But the choice is still our own
We may not carry angel wings
But we’re not all alone
And if you go your way
May you find your place in the sun
Cos’ we need a human way
Somehow to belong
Now we all know that we’re not here
Forever and ever
And even if you don’t believe
In some ever after
Don’t you think the time is right
To look yourself right in the eyes
Cos’ no one here has to suffer
From your pity lies
Ooohh Together / Forever
Ooohh Please don’t take the road
That’ll lead yourself and ours to nowhere
Took a walk right through the woods
Only yesterday
To calm my nerves to calm my soul
The sky was blue & grey
It’s harder for me to believe
That some of you feel the same way
Just watch the TV screen
And tell me what to say
Ooohh Together / Forever
Ooohh Please don’t take the road
That’ll change the some into none tonight
Ooohh Together / Forever
Ooohh Please don’t take the road
That’ll lead yourself and ours to nowhere

You're Not The One

I was born in the city
But escapin' ain’t that easy
How can man build such a heath
But I’m not the one
To tell you what you gotta do
Wanna leave society
All it did was tormenting me
Power & greed & corruptible seed
Seems to be all there is (X2)
Wanna live by the river
From the seeds and my lover
We couldn’t wait every hour
For the morning dawn
To glow through the leaves (X2)
In such a place a mind will grow
And in your eyes a light will glow
And from your heart a strength will rise
If you stay here, no need to hide
Cos’ you’re not the one to tell me
Who I gotta be (X4)

You wanna see
Peace on Earth and sunrise over sea
You wanna breathe
The fresh air, the sweetest breeze
But only you can change the World
Avoid the void oh let your voice be heard
You wanna feel like lovers feel
Like the leaves on the greenest of trees
No you cannot stand any kind of misery
And a child must be free from slavery
But only you can change the World
Avoid the void oh let your voice be heard
Oh can’t you see, this is no way to be
Our hands are tied, but it’s time to set ‘em free
We’ve seen the news the lies are spread free
Please don’t tell me that you cannot see
They poison food, they frie your brain
I’d rather start all over again
But only we can change the World
Avoid the void oh let your voice be heard
Oh can’t you see, this is no way to be
Our hands are tied, but it’s time to set ‘em free
