Hold On



I am thinking, "No,
things shouldn't be this way.."
I am thinking how
I could be falling prey...

We have a common enemy, you and me
A flash of truth from your eyes 
to my eyes...
And all these mirrors 
held up to us
break brightness up 
They're breaking the brightness up...

You're taking the steep climb 
The rocks you packed around your heart 
Your spirit puts a panic on 
as is its habit.
You summon up a storm again,
I watch it rage around you..
Really don't want to join you there:
Don't drag me in...

This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine, 
Not mine...

Can you hem the edges of your mind?
Your spirit is so flyaway 
You shred up your old name 
Every nerve taut and frayed
The roar levels all, levels all...
You draw in smoke to get some air
You sit in to the drowning box
and dig your heels in there 

This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine...
This is your weather,
Not mine, 
Not mine...

Things aren't clear from here -
You're in your fury; I'm in the fog -
I don't know the right words,
I don't know the code, 
I don't have it!

And you've got some rage to spend,
my darlin, 
but you've got nothing to burn
And you've got some rage to spend,
my darlin, 
but you've got nothing to burn...

Well Really

Already Miss It

Dear friends,
we have, hopefully, several more years on this planet!
But.....all wars must stop

Years on Earth

The years we have to spend on this earth
should be a marvelous time, a time to enjoy
and we don’t want any sorrows and we don’t want any pain and we will not be sad
then we must  - understand  - that there are people with values that differ 
from what we have learned 

There are however some circumstances here
which we can hardly affect, even if we want
sometimes the weather is raging in some places on earth and we are perplexed
but if we - give a helping hand - to the people who are suffering at most
then peace will last

You can hardly miss the consequences of
the greede by those who are in power, in some countries on earth
they may have started aggressions to innocent folks who live nearby
we must tell them - stop the war - since we people want to live in peace
for the rest of our lives

Years on Earth

Yeah
Stop quitting
Quit smoking
A quick decision to make
An easy commitment to fake
In the long term
Long run
In the long term
Long run
Away, away

Throw your butt
Blow that puff

A great decision to make
An easy commitment to fake...
Yeah

Throw your butt
Stop
Quit
Stop
A great decision to make
An easy commitment to fake
Away, away
Blow that puff
the last puff
Drop it

The Last Puff

The Last Puff - with Imre Lodbrog

Upbeat, looking towards a positive future

Brighter Day

Ik leun tegen de middag
Die te laat begon
De straat ademt namen
Die ik ooit verzon
Er ligt stof op je schouders
Van een andere tijd
Ik veeg het niet weg
Omdat het zo mooi blijft

Alsof ik oplos in geluid
Een stem in de muur
Die je altijd al hoort
Maar nooit verstaat
Vreemd, je wist het nooit
De radio liegt zacht
Over hoe het moet zijn
Een liedje blijft haken
Tussen gisteren en pijn
Ik tel je stappen
Op een vloer die beweegt
Je kijkt door me heen
Alsof ik daar leef

Tussen adem en huid
Ik word kleiner dan woorden
Fluister zacht
Vreemd, je wist het nooit
De stad knippert even
Alsof iemand ons ziet
Een hand op mijn rug
Die zegt: vergeet me niet
We staan stil
Terwijl alles doorgaat
Ik raak je kwijt
Op de plek waar je staat

Tot er niets meer verdwijnt
Ik blijf achter
In hoe je me zegt
Zonder geluid
Vreemd
Je wist het nooit
Maar ik was er al
Lang voordat je keek

Lyrics
I’m tired of people
I live on middle ground
Hands over ears
Eyes down

Here on the blind side
Amid the panic
We’re being led by
Force of habit
Behind the back light
Under the static
We shy away like
Frightened rabbits

I’m barely here
A face amongst the crowd
Violent appeals
Washed up, drowned out

Here on the blind side
Amid the panic
We’re being led by
Force of habit
Behind the back light
Under the static
We shy away like
Frightened rabbits

Why live in fear?
Why move against the grain?
I try to speak but
You didn’t know my name

Here on the blind side
Amid the panic
We’re being led by
Force of habit
Behind the back light
Under the static
We shy away like
Frightened rabbits

Under the Static
