Cut In Ego

1 had a vision
But it was only a hallucination.
1 had a vision
But that was only a fantasy.
1 had a vision
But it was only a figment.
1 had a vision
But that was only a pipe dream.

Its end shall be dramatically
But until then
1 can try to stand,
Gain solid foothold again 
And that eventually
Until the end

Take the reject and
Try to reflect that

1 had this vision
But it was only a big misconception.
Thought to be on a mission
But that was only an aberration.
How 1 was wishing
that it had another destination.

Its end designed dramatically
But until then
1 can try to stand,
Gain solid foothold again 
And that eventually
Until the end

Take the reject and
Try to reflect that

1 had a vision
But that only turned into a nightmare.
There seemed this mission
But now there is no time left to spare.

Its end will be dramatically
And until then
1 can try to stand,
Gain solid foothold again 
And that eventually
Until the end

The end just fatally
And until then
1 can try to understand,
Regain solid mindset again,
Adapt the stand

Presenting - Till I Get Over You

Vocals - Heidi-Marie - first take
Original Lyrics as I sung

Choose another road
Walk another path

Time to clear the mind
Time  to the cleanse the soul

So let me take another road

Does it really matter
Which way I go

Not sure what I'll

Till I Get Over You

'poetry cocaine'

Harmful: poetry cocaine, one eyed wailin'
Scotty: lyrics, vocals, guitar, bass, melodica, djembe, cuica, clavas, maracas

'Boy, y'know she's been creepin' in the night.
While you're fast asleep, man, that shit ain't right.' 

'Whatchu tryin' to tell me, brother?
Has she gone astray?
If you put it on your mother, 
I swear, I'll make that bitch pay. Yeaaah.' 

'Well, I just heard it from my cousin,
who lives next to Handsome Shane,
that she's been givin' him (Shane) some lovin'
for poetry cocaine.' 

-
But then again my dear I hear you like to read books on psych dreams
You said you read them in your bed to clear your head 
Why not try this instead a kiss then bed
A bliss not said but felt 
Like ice won’t melt
Remember this baby, for now and evermore 
I’m a fucking tortoise hear me
- 

'So, please, can you tell me, brother,
where is it that I find Shane?
'Cause I'll be goin' undercover
to blow out his fuckin' brains.' 

'Well, that's the funny thing, my brother.
For he felt the same.
So let me point my pistol at'cha
and pull the trigger. KaBANG!'

BITCH

Performed by David Cooper

Music - David Cooper

Words - Ralph Donkin

Don't need no religion to pray
Don't need no opinion to say
Say what I feel
Pray when I kneel
It makes no difference to me

Don't need no secrets to keep
Don't need no dreams to sleep
Sleep when I'm tired
Secrets undesired
It makes no difference to me

Chorus

No tears
No fears
It's just the way that it is
No cheers
No jeers
It's just the way that it is

Don't need no physician to heal
Don't need no politician to steal
Steal from the poor 
Pain I'll endure
It makes no difference to me

Don't need no education to learn
Don't need to go back to return
Return to where
There's no knowledge to share
It makes no difference to me

Chorus

Don't need no flowers to grow
Don't need no ill wind to blow
Blow me a kiss
And if you miss
It makes no difference to me

It makes no difference to me
It makes no difference to me
It makes no difference to me
