Sparkling Eyes

Music/Arrangement/Production/Vocals/Lyrics by Achazia
Production and final mix: Dek/Mono Stone

Verse: 
(Hear me roar!!...)

I am divine.
Your godness from the dark.
Don't you ever dare to put me down.

I am the Queen!
your mystical muse.
I can be whatever you want.


Chorus:

You can choose to ignore me,
or bind our souls together.
You can lose what's close to me,
or keep my love forever..

Verse: 

I am the song!
you hear from afar.
The voice that plays with your mind.

I am the one.
Impossible to tame.
There's nothing that can make me stay

Chorus:

You can choose to ignore me,
or bind our souls together.
You can lose what's close to me,
or keep my love forever..

Bridge:

What's the meaning this?
What's the purpose of it all?
You know there might be an answer out there
if the truth comes out you will forever be changed.


I am the Lady
That cries every tears.
That never puts you to sleep.

Don't you ever think about it baby......


Verse: 

I am the myth!
That keeps you awake
If you dream I never let you go.

I am divine!
Your godness from the dark.
Don't you ever dare to put me down.

Chorus:

You can choose to ignore me,
or bind our souls together.
You can lose what's close to me,
or keep my love forever..

Keep my love forever feat. Mono Stone

"Wasting Time"  

Life is but a dream
and I’m floating through
you’re a lot like me
you’re a floater too

I see blue skies
white clouds and butterflies
this is the time
the time of our life
---
So much of our time is wasted
doing things we don’t want to do
getting stuck in a nine to five (yeah)  
while life passes on by

they tell me to focus
tell me to do what I need to do
buckle down, give it up  (yeah)
this time goofing off with you

I notice the blue skies
I see the sparkles in your green eyes
it’s amazing baby what you see
when you take the time

time it is a wasting
if you don’t take a moment a time to breathe
soon your life is over
never knowing you've got the  keys

they say I’m wasting my life
these things I do
if this is wasting baby
I want to waste my life with you

they say my time is wasted
maybe it’s true
but if this is wasting baby
I want to waste it all with you

dance in dandelions
catching fireflies in moon light
racing rain drops
skipping rocks by the River’s stream (by the River’s stream)

this time you’re wasting with me
you’re wasting with me
they are the best times
they mean the world to me

they say I’m wasting my life
these things I do
if this is wasting 
I want to waste my life with you

they say my time is wasted
maybe it’s true
but if this is wasting baby
I want to waste it all with you
waste it with you

there’s no time to waste
there’s no wasting time 
when I’m with you
when I’m with you

Heartbreak Road

“Rise” by Atlantic Riff

I know it’s been said before
I know it’s been sung
But time is short my friend
Our chances are one

These walls we built together
Bid them farewell
They‘re holding us back anyway
It’s a blessing they fell

In the rubble 
And remains of belief
Find your way
Find your relief

If it takes a scream from the mountainside
A dive into the deep
Rise
We will rise

Reach for the truth
Touch the hand of, of the divine
I know it, I believe it
One day we’ll rise

The spirit hardens
Beliefs in concrete
Melt us on the inside
Give us a hunger to seek

This life it packs a punch yeah
Words are the sword
But heal these wounds I plead
Harm me no more

If it takes a scream from the mountainside
A dive into the deep
Rise
We will rise

Reach for the truth
Touch the hand of, of the divine
I know it, I believe it
We will rise

Sail above the mountain
Swim out of the deep
Use our hunger
We’ll touch the hand we seek

Rise, we will rise
I believe we will rise
Rise, we will rise
One day we will rise

Time is short my friend
Our chances are one

"A Little Bit (Ease Up)"

I hear ya, you're howlin'
I hear ya, harpin’ 
I hear ya, gripin’ 
I hear ya, you're barkin’  

Bark all you want baby 
But that ain’t no way to get me home, get me home

Ease up, ease up just a little bit
Ease up, ease up just a little bit
Ease up, yeah just a little bit
Can you ease just a little bit? 
Cause once the work’s over 
I’m looking for a little fun, a little fun 

Push back baby 
Push back baby 
Push back baby 
Push pushing back baby 
Oh I’m pushing back baby 
‘cause all your barking ‘bout to drive me crazy, crazy

Ease up, ease up just a little bit, baby
Ease up, ease up just a little bit, baby
Ease up, yeah just a little bit, baby
Can you ease just a little bit? 
Cause once the work is over 
Can you show a little love, love?

“It’s a Killer”

We’re all out here on life’s empty highway
Not sure which way to turn
We’re all out here looking for something
Trying to grab the light of the sun

We will be
We will keep running
Thru the nights searching for the day
We will be
We will keep trying to fill the void
Of the darkness that stays

There’s a silence that surrounds me
It’s killing me by degree
An emptiness inside me
Won’t you speak to me please?

Silence is a killer
Silence is breaking me down
Silence is a killer
Silence is breaking me down

Silence is a killer
Silence is breaking me down
Silence is a killer
Silence is breaking me down

I’m talking, is nobody listening?
Is my voice even leaving my head?

It’s a killer

“Down” by Atlantic Riff

We met it was a time of newness and wonder
I guess we missed the sound of the thunder 

I try to pick you up
Stand behind you 
But down you go 
Down you go

The tide is picking up
Waves are getting rough
And down you go
Down you go

You don’t have to say it
I am the King of Excuses
Should we give it up
Or try to push right through it

I try to pick you up
Stand behind you 
But down you go 
Down you go

The tide is picking up
Waves are getting rough
And down you go
Down you go

But I can’t let you go
I can’t let you go
No I can’t let you go
I won’t let you go

I go out of my mind
Thinking about you leaving
We fought through the hard times
So you don’t even have to say it

I can pick you up
Stand behind you 
And down we’ll go 
Down we go

I go out of my mind
Thinking about you leaving
We fought through the hard times
So you don’t even have to say it

Down

“Heartstrings” by Atlantic Riff

Stranded 
Pulling me away from the light
Sometimes in the night 
I hear the sound of heartstrings

Stranded and standing alone 
Inside my mind I hear a beat
It keeps me alive
My heartstrings
Heartstrings

On and on and on 
I feel the pull of the flame
No one else here to blame
Only need to heal my pain

On and on and on
I dream of a better day
Someone else to sing along 
To my heartstrings

Stranded
Swimming up against the tide
Sometimes I cross the line
Cross the line

Bending not breaking
Stringing me along 
Still I fight ‘til I find the one 
To harmonize with my heartstrings

On and on and on 
I feel the pull of the flame
No one else here to blame
Only need to heal my pain

On and on and on
I dream of a better day
Someone else to sing along
To my heartstrings

On and on and on…
