One World Town (Brian Peters)

Let there be darkness
And let there be light
Let the sun and the moon
Keep the day and the night
Let there be evil
And let there be good
Another War of the Worlds
Where the Tree of Knowledge stood

Let there be pleasure
And let there be pain
Let the living mourn the dead
And let the dead rise again
Let there be trouble
Between the old and the young
Another Tower of Babel
A confusion of tongues
-
Don't wanna live in a one world town
Where nobody knows what is real
Where there is no up and there is no down
Cause you were made with magic
On the Potter's wheel
-
Let there be heaven
Let there be hell
From the Book of Revelations
To the worlds of HG Wells
Let there be loving
And let there be hating
Let a man know within himself
Of the road he is taking

Let there be heroes
Let there be gods
Let there be rebels
Who live under the sword
Let there be greatness
Outcasts and giants
Let the martyrs carve the roadways
With the prophets and the saints
-
Don't wanna live in a one world town
Where nobody knows how to feel
Where there is no up and there is no down
Cause you were made with magic
On the Potter's wheel

FIX TODAY (JunkHeap (c) Apr 05 2021 / Remixed/fixed Aug 2023)

Youtube video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxCJ314-GTg

Time travelling from this place,
I'd like to step through a gate.
Launched into space and time,
everything motionless; emotionless.

If today was my last day in this place,
that you and I lay to waste,
the tears would well up in my eyes, 
saying goodbye.

I go forward in time,
to see if we get it right.
Fix today. 
Not tomorrow.
Fix today. 

All I can send back is a brief message 
from the other dim, a text.  
No way to return.
I see the world burning.
Chaos and melting.
Just one little message. 
One little message.
I know, I know.

Fix today.
I hope we change
our destructive ways.
Fix today.
I hope we change.

Fix Today

RiZLiX - Bring The Sunshine

In memory of author's mother ZLATICA who died by the car crash. The lyrics of the song reflects the atmosphere when it happened.

Ambulance (lyrics: Michaela Martykanova)

1. The sky is clear, the air so warm is getting under your skin. Suddenly, the silence is broken. There´s sound of howling ambulance.
Hello, hello, perhaps somebody (left us and) gone too soon
Hello, hello, gone somewhere, to find his own piece of land
2. The sky is clear, even no clouds, but cold is chilling the (your) bones
Shock and fall, silence and dark, the soul is breathing no more
Hello, hello, perhaps somebody (left us and) gone too soon
Hello, hello, gone somewhere, to find his own piece of land
Hello, hello, somebody again (left us and) gone too soon
Hello, hello, gone somewhere, to find his own piece of land

AMBULANCE with Michaela Martykanova & KOMA  - new 2023 (often downloaded)

Dedicated To A Most Wonderful Man, Nigel Bateman. RIP.
Produced By Martin Reed.

Mysteries Of The Blim

i hear these voices in my head
i ain't tryin' to quiet them no more
i just give into them
there is no making sense of it
you just gotta go with it now
and Lady Luck may lead you to your destination now
it's only motion down below
you look above and see a million stars
it's hard to tell which way is up down in a hemisphere... 
don't you know where you're going boy
it seems that you have been a long time comin' to this place now
it seems so far but it seems so close
it's drawn me into the air
so hold on tight you never know
where you may know
