LYRICS:
Under the sunset
We’re riding away
And never get back for 
The money and fame
We’re praying till dawn
Cause there’s nowhere to go, 
There’s nowhere to go.

We’re tired to conquer
We’re tired to be
Gave all for the mission
Not skipping a beat
It’s locked in the cupboards
In between the walls,
Walls that couldn’t talk…


CH: TRY / x4/

Bring another hour to the dawn
Tell me all the lyrics that you know,know
Point another corner of the stone, stone
Make me understand to see the core, core…

I’m gonna see the ocean
I’m gonna ride the waves
I’m gonna write a poem
I’m gonna light a flame

They’re begging me to stop:
‘Watch out, do what’s right!’
Rolling on the line…

Cow wars and colours
Begin to rot -  us
Whatchu discover?
Whatchu empower?

Pouring the passion, more, more
Tearing the flesh off bone, bone
Ready forever: war, war
Breed of predator, ROAR!

CH: TRY / x4/

Add another colour
Fire up the rainbow
Fighting for my tower
Knocking down the main door

Building up a Temple In the sky….


***
Sometimes you wanna get away from the urban jungle and quit trying to prove anything to anyone. 
Sometimes you wanna be as you are, you wanna experience pure joy, you wanna be free…
Sometimes you wanna experience Time as it reveals itself and not try to control it or compete against  it.
Sometimes you wanna stop trying to conquer anything.
Sometimes you wanna stop feeling guilty for who you are or who you are not……
Sometimes you wanna stop fighting for ‘success’ and start living in bliss.
Sometimes you just need to remember that one thing that you really wanna do and give it a try!

 This song is for you, who often feel tired and imprisoned by the subordination of the ‘real world’ structure, by the clocks and the money and everything that prevents you from doing what you love.
This song is for everyone who ... simply needs it.

***


Every day is a fight…
Every day you wake up and you need to struggle to fit in, to become someone, to achieve something. And you need to obey so many rules, you need to learn to accept the restrictions, you need to accept and live with the feeling of guilt, which triggers anger, self-hatred and insecurity. 
Every day you need to wake up, get out of bed and make the choice to fight.  Fight for everything that seems worthy. Some days you need to get up and convince yourself that there is at least one thing that matters and it’s worth it.
Sometimes you sit in the dark and wait for a single spark of hope, a little blessing from an angel and a little bit of faith. You wish that better days lie ahead of you and of all the people. You wish you were stronger and had more patience, so that you can manage better your time, your energy.. You feel disappointed with who you are right now and compare it to the ideal YOU..…

But, my dear friend, whatever you feel and whatever you fear, remember one thing: everything is worth it. Just for the sake of giving it a try. Because YOU CAN. Life is the best thing you can dream of. LIFE is the best reason you can possibly have to live – because it means that whatever the rules of the game are, you are in it and you have the ability to play. Sometimes you are defeated but don’t worry, you’ll get another chance to win at the next round. And soon you will go to the next level…
JUST GIVE IT A SHOT AND 
TRY…..

Lyrics:
Lately, I've been wondering
Why i'm here at all

I'm running out now,
What thought comes first?

I'm running out now,
The same old thoughts,
To curb or nurse

I will never,
Claim that i'm ever
Here, alone.

Written, recorded and mixed by Jacko Hooper.

Lyrics:
Stars are all you see
Looking above, it used to be me
But now the words don't flow
The love before had time to grow
But with the clock running down
You know, I know
I have to go.

As my love is never too much
To hold on to when it all gets too rough
And my love is but sincere
And we'll show the world, we'll show them the fear

And I know there's little I can do
To assure you, of what you know
Stuttering verbs
Turn into muttered words,
Of which nobody can decipher
But my love I've been waiting for you
To call

'Cos my love is never too old
And we'll be on trains before you know
As my love is never too cold
To warm up your bones and to harness all you hold.

I have to go.
And this road is long.
And I feel it the most when you let me know that why I'm not alone.
