The Truth Is (EZamor Mix)

Chrysta Bell - The Truth Is [EZamor Mix]

Featuring vocals by Steve Hale

I have a regular job, a normal job, a boring job
like everyone else on this little hot blue marble
I want something better
isn't that the way?
I'm told to want something better, so I want it
a glamorous occupation is what I deserve

my glamorous occupation

my glamorous occupation waits for me...

I want to do the fantastic, completely bombastic, without any glasses
I want to have the shiny things that blind my eyes
I want something perfect
doesn’t that sound good
I’m told to want perfect things, so I want them
a glamorous occupation is what I deserve

my glamorous occupation
my glamorous occupation (is looking for me...)

I toil away
these hours I spend
I’m always so sleepy
when the day comes to an end
I wish I had, the energy to follow my dreams
but I’d rather have them, handed to me
for free
then everyone will see
my glamorous occupation becomes me

a pilot, poet, playwright, acrobat, painter or diva
lion tamer, king of the world, model or zeppelin captain
international spy, chocolate tasting tester,
super hero, film star, evil genius, trust fund baby

I toil away
these hours I spend
I’m always so sleepy
when the day comes to an end
I wish I had, the energy to follow my dreams
but I’d rather have them, handed to me
for free
then everyone will see
my glamorous occupation becomes me
my glamorous occupation looks for me
(my glamorous occupation becomes me)
(my glamorous occupation waits for me)
(my glamorous occupation becomes me)
(my glamorous occupation looks for me)
everyone thinks I’m a star
but I just like the shiny things....

"The song is a lament of an innocent woman being taken to the block (or the guillotine)... but becomes a greater lament for people and their spectator cruelty." - Daniel Staniforth

She's waiting for the axe to finally fall
She wonders if there's anything at all
Beyond her, or is it just an empty dream?
She's failing while whispers turn to screams

Body Undone
Mind all gone
Cessation
Cessation

They're laughing, she stumbles to the ground
She winces because her hands are bound

What purpose does this all achieve?
Will time find the heart to grieve?
Remind us of our Cruelty?
What nonsense, these notions of Eternity

Voyeurs on the great divide
Delight in this homicide
Despite her innocence in being here
Paupers and peddlers of empty fear

Divine, haloed in the Sunlight
And brave, head held fast and eyes bright
Depraved, the crowd roars its mad amusement
And time, time demands its punishment

Cessation
Cessation

The Walk

Spiralling

So, this is where I find myself at last.
I'm not smart enough to know what was best.
I look around with eyes that still can't see.
I grope in the dark but miss your touch.
Are you there? I need you so much.

The Flight of the Phoebe (feat. Noah Grove)

The way is as clear as darkest night
But I can't see what's outta sight
I listen hard to nothin' there

All o' my tattered shades are drawn
Some o' my friends have up an' gone
Life, it ain't no Irish Fair

[chorus]
Are you ready now for digging deep?
Are you game to climb the mighty heap?
Or would you rather do The Monkey Sleep?
Or would you rather do The Monkey Sleep?

Gotta move on to hyperspace
Get respect, make bold the chase
Dab oil on my rusty side

Free of circular reasoning,
my passion more than seasoning,
ready for a jetstream ride

[chorus]
Are you ready now for digging deep?
Are you game to climb the mighty heap?
Or would you rather do The Monkey Sleep?
Or would you rather do The Monkey Sleep?


Lyrics by Richard Schletty, 8-1-2008

The Monkey Sleep (feat. Richard Schletty)

Dominus Proboscis

His large nose 
senses no mystical realm,
no god, 
no hope, 
no aroma of love.

With dulled senses 
he stumbles 
'cross small divides, 
never seizing the day, 
never reaching for stars.

He cannot adjust 
his lifelong habits 
to forestall disaster. 
The assailant can surely 
snatch away all.

His attitude stinks. 
His muscles are atrophied. 
His mind is anemic. 
He is unable and unwilling 
to embrace his neighbors.

He is an automaton 
who spins out his days 
in grief, 
in despair, 
incommunicado.

He is an easy mark, 
a sitting duck, 
to be bagged and diced, 
skewered and fried, 
consumed and regurgitated.

Lord, help the man!

Does a mother weep?
Does a beggar sleep?
Is the child frail
from a lack of ale?

Are your nails too long
to play this song?
Do the wicked win
or do they lose with Satan?

Mr Funk D (feat. António Louro)

Hey!! Put your hands in the air!!
Put your hands in the air!!
Stop!!!

I’m a mic checker more addict than a hacker
It’s first-class when I verse to the mass
Hip hop is my gun, lyrics are my shells
Raining down on town ready to ring the bells
Stage to stage, rhyme to rhyme
My words are loose in space and time
I break this down and bring it on top
My skills are magic. Just breathe and stop
Here from I don’t know direct to you
The funky drunky sound and lunacy too
Speaker’s burn with my fuckin’ rage
Trailing my mind as I turn this page
Drivin’ you slowly and bringing fire
Rhyming with soul and expressing desire
The breakdown is crucial to rock steady
I hope that you are ready

Chorus:
When I grab the mic I turn insane
When I take the mic I bring the pain
When I’m on stage it feels so fine
When I rhyme the world is mine

I cannot end this… pull me in
Push me harder and then drag that string
Make me wanna sing, make me wanna rap
So furious… so fast… this game is a trap
I knock you out… heat the floor one more time
I’m the master of the game so I score prime
I’m illegal… I’m unofficial… I’m immoral… I’m informal
I’m of the record… superior to the normal
Sit down… relax and burn with my words
Do you know how this shit works?
I’m the leader… you follow me
When you look to me what a fuck do you see?
Your boss… Your pimp… hey open your mind
Is just craft… yours truly all the time
Come to the stage with me… come with me
Be like me… I’m whatever I wanna be

Chorus

Hey!! Put your hands in the air!!
Put your hands in the air!!
Hey!! Put your hands in the air!!
Like you just don’t care

Pianos kicks
Mind slicks
Beating… spiting
Drinking and living
Life my way
Night by night day by day
Over and over again
Just the memory remains

Chorus

Background vocals by Rebsie Fairholm

Why are dead men so contrite
I feel the chill of their bodies tonight
I taste the blood in the dustless rain
Somehow I know I will never be the same

Most of my friends are buried fore they’re dead
I hear them moan in the sand and cordite
Much more than blood or tears is shed
In this last cold testament of fright

The sun now gloats with its burning eye
Revealing more of the wasted mound
The random zip of bullets whip the sky
As I watch more souls go down

Wondering if it’s my turn next
For why should I survive
Dulce et decorum est 
How pitiful the cry

Merciless forces are the fates
In this our charming war
Trembling amongst dismembered mates
It’s time to pay the whore

If I die, or beat the odds
It’s just a game to faceless gods.

If I die, or beat the odds
It’s all the same to faceless gods.

Faceless Gods (feat. Daniel Staniforth)

Put away your gun
And look upon your brother
A time for PEACE has come
A season like no other
One drop on the pond

Put away your fear
That others are unlike you
We shed the self-same tear
And feel the pain that others do

Put away you pride
Humility is virtue
Reach down deep inside
Embrace the man you never knew

One drop in the blue
Peace will come to you

One drop in the blue
Peace will come to you

One drop in the blue
Peace will come to you

Lyrics © 2009 by Daniel Staniforth

Peace (One Drop in the Blue) (feat. Daniel Staniforth)

I know your name
I've seen the plan
Reading your dreams
Looking to land
We have no fear
We're ancient friends
Voltage is high
the shock never ends

Fall from the sky
Fall from on high

You're like a mirror to my soul
We are forever changing roles
Giver of light, receiver of fire
Making me whole

You burn me again
Your furnace in wind
A light from the source
A terrible din
You sear to the heart
A bolt from the blue
This voice from the past
Is synging anew
But I hold the charge
I'm taking the load
Just foolish enough
to Stand in your road
I felt it before
I live for the pain
I look for you now
Wherever there's rain

Fall from the sky
Fall from on high

You're like a mirror to my soul
We are forever changing roles
Giver of light, receiver of fire
Making me whole

I hold the power
I caught your light
Playing the game
Toying with might
You want it back
but I'm like a child
Clutching my dream
You're feeling riled
You know my name
You know the plan
Reading my dreams
of fleeing the land
We have no fear
We're ancient friends
the voltage is high
the shock never ends

Fall from the sky
Fall from on high

You're like a mirror to my soul
We are forever changing roles
Giver of light, receiver of fire
Making me whole

The Sky Electric (feat. Daniel Staniforth)

The pigeons are startled when the shadows fall
The arrows are raining from the archer's wall
My dreams are distracted by a haunted face
My weapons discarded by your ghost's embrace

My spirit is bracing with an endless yearn
I find it enchanting, your startled return

The Peasants are dancing on a moon-blanched field
The moments are silver where the memories yield
My hope is caught waning as the sunlight comes
Our silhouette fading in a night undone

My spirit is bracing with an endless yearn
I find it enchanting, your startled return

You know where you were going
And you had to go alone
I couldn't change that, knowing
That my heart would turn to stone

My spirit is bracing with an endless yearn
I find it enchanting, your startled return

The devil's beguiling with one last kiss
The statues all smiling with their breath remiss
My heart beats in sorrow in its stony tomb
I wait for tomorrow and your touch of doom

My spirit is bracing with an endless yearn
I find it enchanting, your startled return
My spirit is bracing with an endless yearn
I find it enchanting, your startled return
My spirit is bracing with an endless yearn
I find it enchanting, your startled return

Your startled return
Your startled return
Your startled return

Her Startled Return (feat. Daniel Staniforth)

It's just a game
It's just a game

You've hit the floor
Nowhere to go
Can't find the door
The Ceiling's low

Game - Gives you away
Gane - Cold light of day
Game - Begs you to stay
Game - beats back the grey

You can burn out - but don't fade away
You can burn out - but don't fade away

Fall from a lofty height
Black like the dead of night
Crawl from your embryo
Back to where dead men go

It's just a game
It's just a game

You've let me down
You've knocked me loose
You've made me frown
You've made me bruise
That's what you choose

I know a game that you can play
Chase your shadow till it goes away
Then book a dream to yesterday

Game - Gives you away
Gane - Cold light of day
Game - Begs you to stay
Game - beats back the grey

You can burn out - but don't fade away
You can burn out - but don't fade away

Don't fade away
Don't fade away
