Crystal of Time

Cold inside,
Alone, empty, thirsty
Echoes of her
Sad, so sad
Leaving me
Am I so bad?
Weird sensation,
Surrounds me
What is this light
This light so bright
Where am I
Glass prison
I can see
My world go by
Laughter, younger
At school I met her
She died, now I’m older
How I long to hold her
But in a flash of light
My mind is trapped in this
Crystal of Time
Where is it taking me
I can see my life from afar
Like this tiny spark
Everything is moving away
Fading away
And the rising darkness
Invades me inside
My mind created this crystal,
And now it’s trapped inside
And we’re going fast
Through an incredible journey

Part I
Seating in the sun, As the kids have fun
In the pool, after school
Oh how I need
The rain on me
Obsessive dysfunction, No relief in sight
The doctors don’t know
Oh how I need
The rain on me
This is my escape
I don’t care what they say
Vapour mist
To take my pain away
To clear my mind
Drown the lawn, but only at dawn
Oh how I need
For it to rain on me
This is my escape
I don’t care what they say
Vapour mist
To take my pain away
To clear my mind
Part II
Work takes me away
Where black gold rules
The politics of green loose
Oh how I need
The rain on me
This is my escape
I don’t care what they say
Vapour mist
To take my pain away
To clear my mind
Part III
This summit is a nightmare
Angry people everywhere
Hitting me with their words
Shouting at me with their signs
But I'm shielded ...
... Or am I ?
Part IV
Suddenly, everything slowed down
The whole world darker but this face
A flower in the desert, a light in my heart
Am I on the wrong side?
Is it me? May be? Is it me?
Part V
Sweet moments, hours seemed seconds
Her life is magic for me
Changing me, transforms me
My soul mate, worlds apart
So back home I decide
To change my life
Her perfume filling my mind, unfading memories
Stop wasting our blue treasure
But is it too little, too late

River of Blood
06:48
|

My friend is lying down
The stare of death has no sound
Music explosion confusion
The show must go on
Waves of heat from the earth
Hot sun witness to the doom
Carpet of bodies, Rug of corpses
Feeding the black rats
It’s raining shells, Haze of dust
So many dead, A sea of red
Despair is like a flood
Moving to the river of blood
So afraid to die
Fear keeps me alive
To protect my loved ones
To take back what’s ours
Doc gave me my pill
Avoid being ill
Side effects are great
I don’t care, I hate
Going forward to our fate
Some time to rest
The stench is so bad
I may be going mad
Wind is hard and dry
Another storm of dust
So many dead, A sea of red
Despair is like a flood
Moving to the river of blood
So afraid to die
Fear keeps me alive
To protect my loved ones
To take back what’s ours
Here we go again
Walking beside a tank
Blocking out the pain
Tagged by snipers
Replied with gunners
Over my head jet fighters
Followed by vultures
Time to write a letter
Half a soup, half a bed
Life couldn’t be better
Had 10 kills today
Friendly competition
Brain malfunction
Not a video game to play
So many dead, A sea of red
Despair is like a flood
Moving to the river of blood
So afraid to die
Fear keeps me alive
To protect my loved ones
To take back what’s ours

Drought
08:45
|
|||
Nothing’s left, everybody died
The far away war didn’t change our path
My brother’s gone, all for a lie
At the horizon, I gaze
It sits in my eyes like a live coal
There used to be a little town
Now a ghost lost in the haze
So much pain, it will never rain again
The drought consumes my throat
Gasping for air I inhale dust
Forcing me to succumb to my fate.
Trapped creation in this arid sleep
Where dreams are mean and spectres creep
The stream a silent check board
The wind blows it all away.

Bed Time Story
08:56

I remember when
It was easy and so pure
No one fighting for what we believed
Would never be taken
And now here I am Alone again
Memories fade into the past
Of a time when we were more than
just a well gone dry
Are you looking down at me
Wondering what it is I'll do
I swear I'll never give my life
After all was done to you
Did they know what they were taking
Seems so good, seem so true
And now here I am Alone again
Memories rockin' me to sleep
In the arms of yesterday
