The Bitter TRuth
Time is a land where all our secrets can be covered
where all our moments can be smothered
where all our memories can be mothered
in a world where all our sins can hide
Yesterday you were called away
Yesterday you said you would play
yesterday was the last of your way
yesterday was the only star that you followed
and the bitter truth will call on you now
and The bitter truth, will call on you now
Chorus
when will you realise
that the time has come to show your proof
when will realise
that you cannot hide behind your bitter truth
long long time ago
you told me you were free
long long years ago
you told me you could see
the moving colours of
a future we could be
the scattered image of
a perfect you and me
But the bitter truth will call on you now

V1
she sits alone
at sunset's sorrow
dreaming of the ocean's dance
when in sealskin clothes she swam free and happy
the kyles and coastlines of her family's kingdom
she sings saddening songs of forbidden memories
of a wonderous site that she saw so long ago the image of a man
so handsome tall and graceful,
riding a wild bay on the beach
like a storm in her eyes
but desire has tricked her fate
and kept her prisoner of hate
a man so beautiful
yet so cruel
who stole her native skin
to keep her as a slave
in chains of unrequited love
she pines for her home
time will tell, when enough time passes,
when the anger overcomes
when it is time, to return to her true self
and when it is time to return to the water
on a dark winter's day she follows him
to a lost hidden cave
where long in her past he has hidden, her clothes of silken grey
were now he sits smiling, smiling like the devils pawn
with her freedom held tightly between his hands
confronting him he denies her
he derides her, lays spiteful fists upon her
crying out she begs for release
in fury in blood and in vengeance
with the last of her power she falls upon him
holds him hard beneath the water's cover
and watches the cold life leave him
in struggle and in fight
she will not give
she will not lose the light
she will choose to live
she will choose to be free
to swim the oceans deep once more
to return to those that bathe on the shore
princess of the sea
always to be free*
She sits on the rock, on the northern shoreline
Watching the duska nd sings songs of the sea

Round
Kicking off the sunday dust
never breathe until we must
our confession makes the sombre world adjourn
move against the water's run
just trying to make a little sun
our contusions make the bloody money turn
Round and round and round we go
Never stop until we show
This time the sun won't burn our sorry naked skin
up and back and down and so
through the fire and then we flow
our last demand will make the violent masses pray for sin
chorus
whisper to me of blood and magic
play to me the music of my tribe
Listen to the roar of the bitter sea
listen to the sound of the silent engines
pouring out their grief for the fallen soldier
no one lives yet no-one gets older
out and thru and in we scream
desperate men with bloody dreams
our memories make the dark world shiver
slaving for a paltry purse
no one ever calls the nurse
our scars will mark us through the night forever
do what's told
bought and sold
wheels turn and burn a hole
hands that scratch and bite in the clawing air
rest a while, fake and smile
lessons learned for a little while
the revolution will begin a new story told
Round and round and round we go
just a little fish caught in the endless stream
round and round and round we go

V1
I believe in all the people that i see
I believe in what we're meant to be
I believe in the healers and the dealers
the old man on the beach
the crying child,
the ones who choose to teach,
the lost and wild
Sub Chorus
only you and only me
this time we'll live to see
V2
I believe in the lonely mother
I believe in the desperate brother
I believe in the ragged and the scattered
The Penny Roller, the Easy stroller
The Stare and lust, the ones who must
sub chorus
only you and only me
this time we'll try to be
chorus
Every soul, that takes it's toll
on the shifting soil
is worth the cost
every beat, of heavy feet
is worth the price
of more than a grain of rice
I believe in the words that I feel
and I believe in blood and in steel
I believe in the praying, begging virgin
the wednesday prince, another pink rinse
the budding hero, the wealthy zero

OVermorrow
the wind does not change
the message stays the same
in time we move free
each second, takes our pain
the clock is our memory
our time is endless
the sun will burn us out
return to sadness
All lives will end in doubt
the clock is our memory
Overmorrow
pity the traveler
lost on the arrow of time
swept along like sand in a storm
never knowing what he will find
having no memory
Picture the future
frame by frame the same
no will to change now
no- one to blame
all is in memory
Overmorrow
