CHICAGO DREAM. Written by Sherri Anne. ©2014

Lyrics: 

A Paperback, worn at the seams
Cold cup, of coffee on the seats
Holey shoes, water in the streets
It’s a fine day for me
         
CHORUS:
Oh my God this city never sleeps in a 
Chicago Dream
It’s a damn cold night we’re all wearing at the seams but it’s 
too late to leave

Bike path, windburn on my cheeks, 
Blind man, preachin’ to the beat
Snowflakes over wheelchairs and pacemakers
A fine day to give

CHORUS: 
Oh my God this city never sleeps in a 
Chicago Dream
It’s a damn cold night to be beggin’ in the streets but it’s 
too late to leave

Oh my God this city’s really got me in a 
Chicago Dream
It’s a damn cold night we’re all wearing at the seams but it’s 
too late to leave



Chicago Dream

Written by Sherri Anne. Copyright 2014

Lyrics: 
It feels like the movies, all I can do is
Pray for a ship to sail me home
With a mass made of steel and Iron oar
Set my ship on coarse, goin’ starboard

I ran to the mountains, flew to the east
sailed the ocean floor
Searchin’ for treasures, searchin’ for gold
all I could find was a rock made of Ore 

And it told me....it’s time

CHORUS: 
Goodbye my lover 
Goodbye my Sweetest Romance
The things we’ll never share just drives me crazy
Goodbye my lover I’ll see you in September
When the leaves are changing colours on the mend
             
I ran to the man at the dock next store
and he gave me potion to, cure my heart 
So I drank it in, yes I did
I fell to my knees and begged oh please
Don’t give up on me now 
I’m sailing on...it’s time

Will I still long to hold you
Will I still long for your touch
Will I still long to have you? Oh I will, but this ship’s sailed on…

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my Sweetest Romance
The things we’ll never share just drives me crazy
Goodbye my lover, And here’s to all the memories
The winds are changing currents on the mend


Goodbye My Lover

Written by Sherri Anne

Lyrics:

You tried to hurt me
But I was a young and foolish girl
Searchin’ for peace
You reached for a part of me you don’t deserve
You pushed me
Far far away then you asked me to stay
How low low low can we go?

You let me down, now I need a miracle

You heard me once, and did it again
Over and over and sent me the dream
I was a lonesome fool for your heart
And I see you there on the other side, with tears in your eyes
How low low low can we go?

You let me down, All I can do
Is call on a miracle (x3)

Low low low low 
How low low low can we go? 

You let me down, All I can do, Is call on a miracle 
You let me down, All I can do, Is call on a miracle
You let me down, I’m starting to see, through your mirror 

You’re my mirror, and I’m your sword
All I can do is call on a miracle


Mirror II

Written by Sherri Anne

Lyrics:

I’ve been talkin to the mountain man, To take the lead
I’ve been treckin’ through them muddy waters, lost my footing
I’ve been talkin’ to the preachers, to shed my sins
I’ve been treckin’ through them fields, to hear my soul

Every time I see that meadow, one tree leaves and another grows
Through the mist and in the distance, you got me wonderin

CHORUS:
Who’s that brother, what’s the sound? 
Comin’ from the mountain top
It calms my ears and calls my name, you’re all sayin the same thing
Hold your ground your time is a comin’
Go Patiently

I’ve been trackin through them desert roads, A long way home
I’ve been talkin to the river, to shed my sorrows

Every time I see that meadow, one tree leaves and another grows
Through the mist and in the distance, you got me wonderin

Who’s that brother, what’s the sound? 
Comin’ from the mountain top
It calms my ears and calls my name, you’re all sayin the same thing
Hold your ground your time is a comin’
Go Patiently


Mountain Song

Written by Sherri Anne.

Lyrics:

They say love it will get you down
But it’s all we have
Open wounds hopes and dreams fall through 
But you can’t keep me down

You got a feelin’ about you babe, yes you do
I got a madness too
I got a feelin’ it won’t take long 
‘til the summer comes

Rivers dry through thickened skies

The people callin’ out
She’s all we have
Endless peaks and skies of gold
And you can’t keep us down

You got a feelin’ about you babe, yes you do
I got a madness too
I got a feelin’ 
it won’t be long 

It won’t be long ‘fore the summer comes And the river runs higher
It won’t be too late when the river rages Risin’ Up for Love
It won’t be too loud when the people shout you can’t keep me down

You got a feelin’ about you babe, yes you do
I got a madness too
I got a feelin’ it won’t take long
To Rise Up For Love



Rise Up For Love

Written by Sherri Anne. Copyright 2014. 

Can you hear me? Can you feel me?
Just when I was found I lost myself
Just when I was free

And it's a cold cold water in here
Yes it's a cold cold water in here

Can you forgive me? All I see is the hurt
Can you see me?
Starin' at the mirror...


Mirror (I)

Written By Sherri Anne. ©2014

Lyrics:

I’ve been chasin’ you it’s taken 
All these years I’m still not over you
I’ll dream out loud, dreams of you and the 
Day I’ll wake to you

Maybe in the morning light, Maybe in the afternoon
I will find you, you will find me too

I’ve been lonely, takin’ it slowly
How long now ‘til I can be yours?
Your lady love, I’m dreamin’ of 
The day I’ll wake to you

Maybe in the morning light, Maybe in the afternoon
I will find you, you will find me too
Maybe in the morning sun, Maybe when the wars have won       
I will find you, you will find me too

I’ll lay my head down, lay my head down
Lay my head down, to see you

Maybe in the morning light, Maybe in the afternoon
I will find you, you will find me too
Maybe in the morning sun, Maybe when the wars have won       
I will find you, you will find me too

LYRICS:

All this time we’ve had to pray
But there are people left behind
Has tunnel vision led us astray?
Blame it on the city life

I’m not angry I am raging
But I keep all this inside
In the morning you can find me
In a sacred place where I can hide

All this time we’ve had to change
Are we still fighting for the same ways?
Of all for some and none for most
Searching for someone to blame

I’m not angry I am raging
But I keep all this inside
In the morning you can find me
In a sacred place where I can hide

Blame in on the anger
Blame it on the pride
Take it out on all the avenues they give us too
Blame in on the neighbours
But when we look inside
Have we forgotten all the visions we can make come true?

I’m not angry I am raging
And I can’t keep all this inside
There are actions that can heal us
All our lives we can rise

Lose Control: Sister Speak – feat The Brothers Burn (live)

Til they lose control
They lose control
They Lose control all over

Politicians call they’re fallen from the floor
In a world running dry off ethanol
With their terminator seeds you watch the stalks fall
You walk talk eat breathe but you can’t even sleep

Take your pills and pick your poison now
Watch the screen and feel your soul leach out.
They try to control your reactions and decisions your mind your life your dreams your visions.

Look what’s happening to a world run dry
We feed the full and let the hungry fight
Let’s find the realization of a functional nation
Not resources outsourced denial and separation

Can’t just walk away
It’s in our papers and our faces can’t talk it away.
What we can do is choose to love one another
With the power of choice let’s come together

Til they lose control (just lose it)
Lose control (just lose it)
Lose control all over x2

I’ve heard it so many times they must be outta their minds
I can’t believe he got elected man this should be a crime
Unless their pockets are fat not many are happy with times
Most of us have family and friends on the front lines

It’s crunch time for polichickens a.k.a. front time
Get in front of the camera read ya script lines
Cut that’s a wrap got ’em hook, line and sink
Nibblin’ on whatever is on the “news” this week

The picture they paint of the public, it’s quite sick
They’ve got us runnin’ for the carrot at the end of the stick, but
The time for action has long since passed
In the words of MLK we need to be free at last

Cuz I’m sick of the sad song sung the same way
Let’s rewrite it make a brand new day
I’m sick of inaction we say, say, say
Get up on ya feet let’s walk this way, say
– BURNS 1

‘Til they lose control (just lose it)
Til they lose control (just lose it)
Til they lose control all over

I pledge allegiance to the flag
Of a nation who puts innocent people in body bags
To the Republic, in which they force you to stand
Opposed to “inferior nations” for supply & demand

One nation, under the gun divided by greed
Liberty, justice, for none might as well bleed – to death
In the eyes of a systematic enterprise
Comprised of lies and one percent of human lives

It’s high time that we open our minds
And realize that the government commits these crimes
On a daily basis, changin’ faces,
Misplaced trust and currencies in distant places

They need to quit writin’ hot checks
Stop cheatin’ school kids and military vets
Instead switch focus and reshuffle your decks
‘Cause we comin’, royal flushin’, redistributin’ assets – BURNS 2

Til they lose control (just lose it)
Til they lose control (just lose it)
Til they lose control all over x2

In a selfish world with a helpless cure
Our minds stumble and crumble with meaningless words
Work drop feed this capitalistic dream
In God we trust, In God we bleed

Take your life back take your soul
Take it back til they lose control
Take your eyes back don’t play the fool
Take it back til they lose control x2

Til they lose control (just lose it)
They lose control (just lose it)
They lose control all over x2

Take it back til they lose control
Take your eyes back don’t play the fool
Take it back til they lose control

Til they lose control (just lose it)
They lose control (just lose it)
They lose control all over x2

Lyrics written by Sherri Anne, Dominic Burns, Jessie Burns.
