Beautiful Zero - Beautiful Zero (2013-2019)

Written at the end of a very meaningful relationship and feeling depressed with the news happening at the time in 2015

Epiphany (Remastered 2023)

Song of your sanity 

It's like you're only up when we get along 
It's in life we're lonely 
You know the song
You Get along 
Forget about the words
Be yourself 
turn on again 
Don't run 

You get along 
You sing a song about your sanity
And although I'm killing time inside 
And everything you've done is alive In all my memories coming through
Won't die 
You reach inside
We could be onto something more 

Song Of Your Sanity

Take me up (Never wanna die)

Take me up make yourself a home
Take me up and make yourself at home

Take me out 
I never wanna die
Take me out 
You'll never wanna die
Take me out 
You never wanna die
Take me out 
You never wanna die

Take me up

*********************************************************

Trapped as a wasp
Baking away from cool
Loving everyone and everything but from a distance to meet with a passing word that felt the core

Euphoria I'd like to share isn't mine and never would be
A gift I feel so that I'm thankful until it enters again
To join with you is something I despise as I find myself further away being pulled by something greater than I'll ever be 

A wasp with poison that is not meant for death 
The humble bee wasn't so lucky 
Or was it its choice to feel it's sting upon its aggressor as it ascended past the honey suckle 
It fed the world for the world wanted it's colour 

It didn't know
As I don't 
Or do I? 
No feeling for me 

but wait 

euphoria again
To share I'll fall and let it take over again

the hope in me

Take me up

Dream on

You've got the motion let's get it straight,
but the feeling never lasts.
We're caught between the land and sky of all we're meant for.
While you're battling yourself, trying to shine a light and you know it well,
It's something you know naturally.

There's nothing better to a lost soul in a lost world.
Nothing better than what you give me.
Nothing better that's best to be chosen,
but maybe the look in your eyes is but a disguise.

The old life may have gone to the dogs, when you lose on the big one.
And the treasure you seek from a heart could be gone forever.
As the loneliness felt draws you back to the centre,
could you build a new fire from the embers?
From the nightmares you flee see the dawn as a new one.

And dream on...

Dream on

Zodiac

Lets fly with the sun
Spin with the moon yeah the night is on fire
Into the unknown
Into the unknown where love hangs by a wire
He's burning it all
He's coming alive yeah hes coming to life
Don't we know
With the colours of his soul
He's tasting it all
It just takes two tastes to be whole

Lets fly with the sun
Spin with the moon yeah the night is on fire
Into the unknown
Into the unknown where love hangs by a wire
He's burning it all
He's coming alive yeah hes coming to life
Don't we know
With the colours of his soul
He's tasting it all
It just takes two tastes to be whole
It just takes two tastes to be whole
It just takes two tastes to be whole

Yeah we fly where we fly
Yeah we fly where we fly
Yeah we fly where we fly

Candleboy & Beautiful Zero - Zodiac

Whirlpool II

Whirlpool of your mind spinning around
It's hard to take when you're in the mud, I'd help you out now
Yes I'll help you 
Don't let the sun go down
It'll find you as you sleep
We'll set sights on the world under it all
Will you slip into us beside the dark?

It makes you feel alone again, makes you cry
Don't you know, don't you know it?
While we hope its alright in love

In love, half a way won't do as we sway
I'll meet you at the slip road to fight it off again

Whirlpool, whirlpool spinning around

Rare blue sky butterfly

I count your soul a rare blue sky butterfly
That's caught inside of my life
Coz since I was seven I've been dreaming of the love on the way
I need love

I'm wanna find that lady to hunt my time
I'm gonna breathe in the burning sun till I find that girl, some night
coz love is always up and leaving
and by the time that I think I've won it's a world away
but its enough to let me know

Let me know

Rare blue sky butterfly

Diamond eye (lose the sad)

Drinking to the innocence of life
And downing depths of everything 
I can’t help but see in you

And that’s not irrelevant 
Coz we live in the inner sense 
With a diamond eye

High on a way 
High on a way
The sooner that we find a way

Lose the sad

High on a way 
High on a way
The sooner that we find a way

Lose the sad

Sooner or later 
Diamond sees it undone 
The years are through then we light a flame 
Just can’t stay the same

It can be all that want when we want it 
And seasons could flow to a brighter day
Just can’t stay the same

Diamond eye (Lose the sad)

We have all the time in the world

Never ending dream alone 

Dreams to pass another passing day 
What’s the world? It’s not for me to say 

Why let mind just slip again?
When you slowly feel the love behind words you mean to say 
Put a stop to the rush that fools the very being 
Can’t let this life slip away 

Is it a dumb attitude when you can’t find a reason for a thing that you should do? 
In the wilds again 
Hoping to see you are the same 

Dreams to pass another passing day
What’s the world? It’s not for me to say 
Looking back you were always the same through change 

Dreams to pass another passing day 
The life that is has burst from a sacred flame to keep the mind from feeling insane 
Patience and love were never to blame

Neverending dream alone
