Spark Of Life

Spark of Life and Innocence
Reflected in the child’s eyes
Tethered to the soul
Exist with no disguise

Dreams ignited
Thoughts excited
Cascading like waterfalls
Entering the brave new world
Without compromise

Spark of Life
Soul expansion
Coming on in waves
Point of view
Taking chances
You’re an act of god

Motivation
Of creation
Dreams are coming true
Extraordinary
All within our view

Lost in imagination
Looking up into the star-filled sky
Where does it start? where does it end?
Forever we’re wondering why

Orbiting around the sun
Trajectories are multiplied
Constant masses in motion
All a part of you and I

Coming in waves
The push and pull
Of the tide
The moon in control
The moon decides
Coming of age,
You set the stage
You turn the pages
And write your own story

Never look away
From danger or despair
Or love that’s waiting there for you

Spark of Life
Soul expansion
Coming on in waves
Point of view
Taking chances
You’re an act of god

What are the odds that we’ll get all that we’re after?
What are the odds that we’ll live free of slaves of masters?
Free from all the tyranny
Free from all material needs
What are the odds that we’ll make it
as far as the eye can see?

Spark of Life
Soul expansion
Coming on in waves
Point of view
Taking chances
You’re an act of god

They say the road is never ending
The warning signs may not be so clear
Across the landscape you keep rolling
Seeking bridges that may not be there

Never know just we we’re going
The future holds a place for us all
Ever changing ever growing
Fortune smiles on those who answer the call

All the years
Drifting on
Treasures gained,
Fortunes gone

Make the most of daylight
As your sun is setting in the rearview mirror
While the memories you hold
keep you heading home

Spark of Life
Soul expansion
Dreams ignite
Thoughts in action

Tethered to the soul
Exist with no disguise
Dreams ignited
Thoughts excited
Cascading like waterfalls
Extraordinary
All within a view

Spark of Life
Soul expansion

End of the World Waltz

In the cities we covered with gold
Dancing in all the ruins we sold
Monuments to invention and pride
Now in decay the future is decided

In memory of
the dreams that were lost
are footprints etched in dust
Travelling down
an uncertain path
are empires covered in rust

Everything we once knew
Winding down
Witness the End of the World
Center of our universe undone
Witness the End of the World

Everything has its reason and rhyme
Everyone has their moment in time
As the Fates hold the threads of our lives
Ultimately nothing will survive

Everything we once knew
Winding down
Witness the End of the World
Center of our universe undone
Witness the End of the World

Another Day

I alone
Have to play the hand that’s lays before me
I alone
Have to face the fears we all know
I alone
Must choose the path and see it clearly
I alone must find the will
To go on

I alone
Take on the endless burdens
I alone
Take hold when others let go
I alone
Raise the final curtains
I alone
Head into the storm

Carrying the world upon my shoulders
Holding all the keys
To all the locked pathways
Cross the open landscape that lies before me
Drawn to the horizon
Moving forward come what may
Taking on another day
I alone
Suffer all the slings and arrows
I alone
Except my own fate

I alone
Define the laws of patience
I alone
Deny the weight

Carrying the world upon my shoulders
Holding all the keys
To all the locked pathways
Cross the open landscape that lies before me
Drawn to the horizon
Moving forward come what may
Taking on another day
I alone
Suffer all the slings and arrows
I alone
Except my own fate

Goes By Gravity

Now there’s a law that everything falls
Whatever way you shoot it
It’s all there to kick to the wind
So go ahead and boot it

Caught between the push and pull
Suspended in between

Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
Holding us all
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
As we revolve
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity

Throw a stick right over the moon
or watch the pebbles skim
Hop skip and jump like a loon
As Newton’s apple spins

Goes by Gravity
Goes by gravity
Holding us all
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
As we revolve
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity

Meteors will fall out the sky in Siberia
Frauleins will drop trays of beer in Bavaria
Boulders will roll down Michigan hills
Keen fighter pilots will drop for a thrill
All know its name when they’re falling six floors to oblivion

aaah aaahh ! aaah aaahh !

Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
Holding us all
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity
As we revolve
Goes by gravity
Goes by gravity

Caught between the push and pull
suspended in between

Caught between the push and pull
suspended in between

Caught between the push and pull
suspended in between

Giants

Standing on the shoulders of giants
We were made to see
The world for what it was
Walking in their footsteps, so compliant
We were listening
To the words of love and trust

Heading down the river of memories Taking on water
And drifting into rough seas
Sinking ever deeper
As the undertow
Pulls you down
Into the abyss
Where no one is ever found

Shaking the sky
Holding on to the reigns
The great divide
between memories and what remains Changing tides
Passing torches
Changing of the guards
As giants are brought
Down to size

Standing by the falling giants
We were made to see
The cycle of life
Memories hazy
And unreliant
Now lost for words
as they return to dust

We wanted more than just to survive
The erosion of time
Retaining all the memories
That make up a life
Carrying on with the legacy
To live, to love, to be
And finally understanding
our shared destiny

Shaking the sky
Holding on to the reigns
The great divide
between memories and what remains Changing tides
Passing torches
Changing of the guards
As Giants are brought
Down to size

All the moments that are multiplied
All to reach the journey’s end
Pools of memories
Rivers of Time
Life will find us in the end

Shaking the sky
Shaking the sky
Shaking the sky
Shaking the sky

Shaking the sky
Holding on to the reigns
The great divide
between memories and what remains Changing tides
Passing torches
Changing of the guards
As Giants are brought
Down to size

Taking down,
The barriers between earth and sky
Watching,
Sleeping Giants arise
Passing torches
Changing of the guards
The new Giants have arrived

The Common Thread

The opposing forces gathering
Each side taking their places
Locked and loaded and ready to engage
Starring down their adversaries

One by one
A battle of attrition
Colors flying in the wind
One by one falling down

The black smoke rising
And covering up the fields of glory
The red and green laser lights
Cutting their way through the night
Finding their targets
By the munitions light
The embers of the battle’s floating in the breeze
And gently falling calmly
The black smoke rising

Through the day and the night
The war rages on
Till there no sound
Everyone was gone
And the politicians all proven wrong
Same old song

The common thread
The common thread
The common thread
Searching for the heart of the matter
The common thread
Listening for the truth in the chatter
The common thread
Crossing the bridge to tomorrow
One world here for us
The common thread
Enduring the pain and the sorrow
One world here for us
The common thread
Transforming our ways of living
One world here for us
The common thread
Learning new ways of forgiving
One world here for us

Making all the dreams real
Making all the dreams real
Finding common ground between us
Transforming our ways of living
Laying down all our shields
Now the fighting’s over

Learning new ways of forgiving
Making all the dreams real
Finding common ground between us
Searching for the heart of the matter
Making all the dreams real
Finding common ground between us
Listening for the truth in the chatter
Making all the dreams real
Finding common ground between us
Crossing the bridge to tomorrow
Making all the dreams real
Finding common ground between us
Crossing the bridge to tomorrow
