Make Or Break

Heros Journey

Pay No Mind

skipping town to town got no sense of direction 
i been all around looking for some affection 
been lost and found yeah
I been high, been down 

but now im back from the bottom straight up to the top now 
it was early autumn i-decided to drop out 
im too clever too teach
guess i was born to preach yeah yeah

caught in a spell like a limmerick 
all the things i say will make you think
been wrapped in the fumes like a shoeshine kid  
but I aint shining no more 
theres more to life dont you know 

rolling down the street like a tumbleweed 
with a tongue so dry that i could hardily breathe
asked a tree for the time 
as it was leaving behind 

woke up in a ditch trying to dig my grave 
was left without a stitch but the day was saved  
when 
i found a cig and a light 
just as the world turned bright 

caught in a spell like a limmerick 
all the things i say would make you think
been running on fumes like a shoeshine kid  
and now im stuck to the wall 
like a fly thats been and seen it all 

i know my shoes dont shine 
theyve been worn over time 
where many men have walked 
through many doors unlocked yeah 

i know my shoes dont shine 
theyve been worn over time 
where many men have walked 
through many doors unlocked yeah cmon

Shoeshine Kid

The All is Mind

All Get Together

Im gon shine I won't take no for an answer 
been this way for a long long time 
I guess thats why they all call me a chancer 
gotta keep on rolling till the end of time 

All the people say that I should go see a doctor 
that im losing my mi-i-ind
but I dont really think that I ought to 
cos what I need you just cant buy 

you win or you lose
yeah its all an excuse just to bet your life 
to roll the dice a lucky look in your eye 
yeah dont blink twice 

I fly so high I must be an alien 
from a planet way out far 
I guess thats why im tuned to the station 
I wanna ride on a shooting star

The streets overgrown in the concrete jungle 
the cats running wild
too pacified to kick up a rumble 
its a dog eat dog yeah its a fight to survive 

you win or you lose
yeah its all an excuse just to bet your life 
to roll the dice a lucky look in your eye 
yeah dont blink twice 

all sing hallelujah
get together one more time 
here's my message to ya 
your the groover your the vibe 
do anything that suits ya 
its to galvanise 
look into the future 
let the music be your guide x2

The Chancer

passed-down from a rosacrucion 
who knew the truth of mans evolution
(said we been kept in the dark)
same old plan same old solutions
every man amidst confusion
we dont have much of a sta-ar-i


I couldnt be a doctor cos i aint got the patience 
i couldnt save my-own life 
im a witch doctor I got medication
gonna reach for the sky 

dumbed down with education
rule the world and free the nation
they aint teaching us ho-ow’
to catch a fish or sail the ocean
got no ship but I got the notion 
n i aint scared to drown 

i cant reach to space cos i aint rich and famous 
im still stuck on the gr-ou-ound 
but we’re so down to earth we’ve found other ways yeah
of escaping th mind 

everything is mandatory 
siad the man who sold the story 
but i aint toeing the li-i-ine
turn a page n write the future 
now the man is gonna shoot ya 
cos hes the man of the time

such as a flame that burns away  L
life is short so go-your own way 
trapped in the eye of a hurricane 
go with the wind gotta make a change 
we’lll 
shine like a li-ight that burns all night
gone by the morning when the sun is bright
im out of sight never been so high 
but i cant-ever-seem to get the timing right

Free The Nation

No Time Like The Now

Rest your mind

I tossed all my money down a wishing well 
I aint got a dime but time will tell 
beware of what your wishing cos it may come true 
and thats just the price that im paying  

so i’ll
wish upon a star 
(to restore my sanity)
to carry me far 
(all across the galaxy)
gotta hope and pray
(that i’ll fulfill my fantasy)
and the world dont keep a me waiting

i aint one t’ borrow 
but i’ve lost-it-all through stolen time 
ill be gone, by tomorrow 
if it aint worth yours then it aint worth mine-I

i aint got a dime so i might aswell 
read my own mind-see-what fortune tells 
i been at rock bottom through the depths of hell 
but now im gonna fly like an angel- ahh 

wish upon a star 
(to restore my sanity)
to carry me far 
(all across the galaxy)
gotta hope and pray
(that i’ll fulfill my fantasy)
that the world dont keep a me waiting 

wipe away your sorrow 
there’ll be time to cry when your near your time  
so soar just like an arrow 
whilst you still got the means to take aim at the sk-y-yy 

we’re all here for a reason to find your reason why-i-i
time is fleeting so live your life 
gotta fight 
to survive 
its always dark at the end of the night 
time to breathe 
count to three 
clear your mind and you will see 
let it fade 
wash away 
pick yourself up and start agai-n 
y’oughtta know 
to let go 
youll never catch up if your running slow

Wishing Well

Same Old

Waste No Time

break through the sky gonna leave this world behind 
cos innnnnnn my mind its 1969
ive earned my stripes yeah no more war for me
all things must pass just let it be

the clock struck 12 to signify the end
of another rebel soul another friend
its-time-to-take a stand we’re stickin’ it to the man
lost to the dust in search of promised lands 

Ive lived through the times ive seen the change 
rolled right through the mist in a silver haze
time ticking the world spinning round
i aint part of the crowd 
im standing out

cmon pac man you understand these alley-ways i roamed 
back to the future now ET’s coming home
I tuned up my stereo while skating down the road
1989 was bought and sold
its fools gold 

Ive lived through the times ive seen the change 
it can be hard to define what you cant explain
im on a quest through this mission of life
let me remember the high just one last time 

im here for the ride 
slip and slide

there was combat boots and platform shoes in the discotheque
i met a sweetheart who put me to the test 
her name was E and she was rocking 95s
she set me free-eee with the way she rolled her eyes

ive lived through the times ive seen the change 
it can be hard to define what you cant explain
time ticking the world spinning round
so raise your hands up and shout
its time to rebound 

I—ve lived through the times ive seen the change 
rolled right through the mist in a silver haze
im on a quest through this mission of life
let me remember the high just one last time 

just one last time
let me reach for the sky 
just one last time

Back to the future

Extrapolation

Chaos

Free From The Mind

Hypnotised

from the beginning of time In outer space 
I was born of a cloud in the Milky Way-out far 
But I cant explain 
The stars 
That are part of me 

but What started the fire 
It dont make no sense 
All the planets aligned from a point so-dense 
but How did it all begin 
the Now is everything 

the universe looked in the mirror 
found a gun n pulled the trigger 
lay back to watch it shatter 
in the end it didnt matter 

Aint got no choice of breathing 
Aint got no choice of feeling 
Born again kicking screaming  
Through the eye thats ever dreaming 

we all return to the dust when the lights go out 
ye know that life is a must or there’d be nothing around to
see 
all that does exist 
to feel 
the sun on your skin 

ashes to the wind 
n im whole again 
right through the abyss 
n im born again 
no time when your dead and gone no
no light when the curtains drawn 

shine your light like the sun 
soak it up like a sponge 
listen for the starting gun 
everybodys on the run 

this world in need of saving 
politicians misbehaving 
work so hard just to cave in 
its your time they are a wasting

I’ll never be me again 
it’d be a shame to waste it 
theres no such thing as the end 
we’re just another painting 

I live to forget just where i came fro’m
we die and re-connect to our creation 


(this old world in need of saving) 
(this old world is ever changing )

(this old world in need of saving) 
(this old mind forever changing)

Ashes to the wind

Spoken to the heavens


Im gonna walk this road through the storm till theres nothing to gain
Im broke down shutting my e-eye’s as im lost in the ra-ain 

I gotta fight my way through the wi-ind’ but it cuts like a bla-ade’’
and every step i make takes the shape of something closer to cha-ange 

got no, destination to fi-ind no-o-ow
ive
I found my peace right under the clou-owds 
i walk alone through the ni-ight no-o-ow
and nobodys bringing me down 

there is a warmth in the heat of the coal painted on our stre-ets 
behind a skyscraper scraping the sky,-the-statues turn into gre-een, 
now I gotta chase up the horizon’ i wont slow down the pa-ace’’
theres really no use in a fighting in a world of dec-a-ay
hey hey  

got no
no destination to find no-o-w
raindrops are singing, they soften the sound
i walk alone trough the night now
and nothings gonna turn me around

so many lives ive passed, but all the faces blend right into the pa-ast
been searching for a reason i can never find 
caught in the endless desi-ign I-I

Ive found my place where the heart feels just like a home 
walked every step of the earth and seen the great unknown (h)
yeah ye gotta be quick to survive in this human race
blink just twice and you’ll die for the thrill of the ch-ase 
hey eh

got no, destination to fi-ind no-o-ow
ive
I found my peace right under the clou-owds 
i walk alone through the ni-ight no-o-ow
and nobodys bringing me down 

got no
no destination to find no-o-w
raindrops are singing, they soften the sound
i walk alone trough the night now
and nothings gonna turn me around
