THE FLOOD
Land filled with sin, consumed by slow decay
wickedness of man, who’ve been slowly led astray
Violent, corrupted
all flesh shall be scattered
every man shall face his reckoning before long
Killing yourself to live
living only for the day
soon enough you will all pay
One man, one message that no one will heed
found grace in thy sight, not blinded by greed
Gopher wood, pitch within
make haste the tide is creeping in
save the tears, face your fears
soon enough you will be consumed
Like a black hole in your room
can’t you feel this falling gloom?
there’s a lingering sense of doom
Oh my, oh will we ever see the day again?
the sky grows darker every minute passing by
The rain won’t stop, the sea will swallow us one by one
my Lord how could we have been so blind
He made a world for us (sun and moon)
He’ll take what’s left of us (and start anew)
He brought us into this world (wicked game)
He’ll take us out of it (just the same)

Had a feeling the other day, the sun went down on me
Reminiscing on better times, that sunk into the sea
Now I’m a sailor, on borrowed time
My ship is loaded but I’m feeling fine
Two thousand miles, left to sail
I want to live to tell the tale
From port to port, I’ve seen them all
Some were big, and some were small
I drop my anchor, and step unto the shore
I smell the air and I smell some more
I down my whisky, I fill my boots
I roam the city for forbidden fruits
I hit the hay, and drift away
And I get ready for another day
The skies are blue, the seas are green
The ocean’s full of mysteries
But danger’s never more than a few leagues away
The sun will rise, and set again
But I may never see my home again
But at least I know I’ll die a happy man
From port to port, I’ve seen them all
Some were big, and some were small
I drop my anchor, and step unto the shore
I smell the air and I smell some more
I down my whisky, I fill my boots
I roam the city for forbidden fruits
I hit the hay, and drift away
And I get ready for another day
The skies are blue, the seas are green
The ocean’s full of mysteries
But danger’s never more than a league or two away
The sun will rise, and set again
But I may never see my home again
But a Sailor never dies, though my ship may capsize
And the waves they get too high
Let me swim ’til my demise
Let me sail ’til I die
Let me sail ’til I die

ALCOHOL
I don’t understand love
and I can’t get a grip on life
I think I must be blind
but then maybe I’m mistaken
There’s cracks in the ceiling
and there’s mould on the bathroom walls
There’s nowhere to run to
but I guess I must keep walking on now
My kitchen is burning
and the flames are crawling up the furniture
My ashtray is smouldering
and I don’t care about the rising temperature
The whole house goes up in smoke
it’s surrounding me and I just can’t see through it anymore
But before I go back to sleep again
I better start praying for somebody or something to came take me out of here
You see I lost my wife and kids because I spent all my money
and I can’t get a steady job because I can’t keep my hands from shaking all the time
if I manage to get out of bed anyway
It wasn’t always like this, you know
I was once a happy boy who just wanted to have some fun
I never meant for things to get so out of hand
and sometimes when I look back on life, I think:
‘’Well…’’

SOMETIME
(AKA RETURN OF THE SON)
Sometime I was alone, had no place to call my own
devastated by suspense, vindicated by romance
Somewhere I lost my way, made my bed where I could not stay
hunger in the beloved land, nobody there to lend a hand
I’ve had my trials of loneliness, I’ve had my failure and success
been to the end of worlds unknown, but now I’ve heard the call for me to atone
In a crowded room before, I felt the calm before the storm
summer went and the winter came, looking for fuel to feed the flame
On the road my knees were weak, I shook the dust from off my feet
I took my time to make amends, but even all the best-laid plans
The will to live, to love, to share, to build a home without a care
can make you lose your track of time, make you forget your role in this pantomime
Now I’ve made it home again, and forever to remain
kill the fatted calf tonight, we’ll sing and dance to our birthright
She’ll be waiting by the phone, send love from here to Rome
singing songs from days of old, solemn beauty to behold
In all my trials of loneliness, I’ve found the meaning of success
the love and comfort of your kin, the love that never falters from within

Hot Rod
Hot rod, under the moonlight, silk smooth, runs like a dream,
Wheels down, well out of sight, the roads bound, a mean machine,
Seat belt, across my chest, 90 miles, powering away,
Speed traps, going too fast, won’t catch, my hot rod today
Need no bus or train,
Just take a walk, it’s all the same
Need no aeroplane,
Need nothing so mundane
Fast car, shiny and sweet, steel rims, heaven on wheels,
Sun roof, opening wide, wind blows I’m head over heels,
Seat belt, across my chest, head lights, show me the way
Police car, won’t stop me now, they won’t catch my hot rod today
Feel like a shooting star, here in my brand new car,
Flying high like a cannonball, don’t need no wings to fly at all
Don’t need no bus or train,
You might as well take a walk it’s all the same
Don’t need no aeroplane,
Too slow, it’s driving me insane
Feeling like a shooting star, just me and my brand new car
Flying high like a cannonball, don’t need no wings to fly at all

LOVE LIES COLD
Loving, waiting
making my way through the minefield of the promises you made me
you tell me your heart’s still healing and then you call me up, elated
you’ve loaded the dice, the champagne’s on ice
I come running, gunning, you lead me up to your bed then you leave me for dead
In the darkness we’re lovers, baby
but in the streets our love lies cold
I’m still waiting for something better from you
Baited, sedated
your body the drug, while I was craving your love
it’s like a game that you play, where my pain is the aim
you make me feel I can fly, then you leave me to die
Only lovers wear roses, baby
but even roses can hurt you can’t they?
I could only imagine hurting for you

Light Out of Darkness
Alone in a city street, the night’s fading in,
I walk from the dark to a motionless crowd
that waits for the dawn to come and break up the masquerade,
the hopeless divide of truth and lies that shimmers in neon lights to entice the beam in our eyes,
in time
A ray of sunshine in the rain
like a rush of blood to the brain
like a light out of darkness she was there, and she took away the pain
I never thought I’d see the day, something good coming my way,
though stars fade and die in the wink of an eye, as the rise of the tide, where oceans collide
A ray of sunshine in the rain
like a rush of blood to the brain
Like a light out of darkness she was there, and she showed me the way
Yeah, yeah
Like ray of sunshine in the rain
like a rush of blood to the brain, yeah
like a light out of darkness she was there, and she took away the pain, oh yeah
Light in the dark, calling me home
Don’t leave me alone, give me a sign
This heart of mine, take it with you
Love’s made for two, make it alright
And let it ignite, don’t flee from the fight
Let it inside, make it alright
A ray of sunshine in the rain
like a rush of blood to the brain, yeah
Like a light out of darkness she was there, and she showed me the way, yeah
Like ray of sunshine in the rain
Yeah like a rush of blood to the brain, yeah
Yeah like a light out of darkness she was there, and she took away the pain
