Went out for a walk tonight
No stars in a city sky
Had nothing much in mind

It ain’t like I want to feel bad
I got no reason to be sad

Sometimes being OK doesn’t seem alright

It’s safe and warm in here tonight 
There’s food, it’s pretty quiet  
My family, they’re close by

It ain’t like I want to feel bad,
I’ve got no reason to be sad
But sometimes feeling OK doesn’t feel alright

There’s folks who’ve got no place to hide
People who’ve been cast aside
Pushed under histories tide 

It ain’t like I want to feel bad
No right or reason to be sad
Sometimes feeling OK doesn’t feel alright 

There isn’t really much to say
the bombs keep falling anyway
Just trying to rein in my own hate

I see no way to make this right
Just hoping for a little light
You can’t explain the night

Can't Explain the Night

Can't Explain The Night (Guitar)

You bet your life and you
lost the game
Now you’re a villain but you’re
just the same
Will anyone stand for you
now that you’ve stumbled
It’s hard to get on your feet
again, when you 

Fall into a make believe hole
you were up on the bridge 
now you’re down, with the trolls 
looking down at you, and laughing

You took it right to the precipice 
Now you’re cast out, flung into
the abyss. Well, 
somebody had to take the fall
And once you’ve stood upright
it’s hard to crawl, but you

Fell into a make believe hole
uou were up on the bridge
now you’re down in the hold
So, tell me,  who’s the captain now?

You struck with your fiery sword 
You’re guarding the garden with soldiers
on board 
Whilst the serpent’s been loosed on your lover 

Because you

Fell into a make believe hole
you were up sitting pretty 
now your backside’s exposed, oh
good thing you still got your
invisible clothes

Make Believe

It’s getting cold but I don’t mind
I’m ain’t  waiting for the sunshine
I’m not worried about  the storms
It only rains outside 

I gotta unwind
Tear out the knots tied up inside 
Hard to know where to draw the line
When you don’t know what you’ll find

We’re sleepwalking through our time
Eyes closed against what we don’t want to find
… walking on a wire, walking on the wire…

Where wise men fear to tread
it’s deeper than decline 
they say that time is running out -
we run,  time is time

We’re sleepwalking through our lives
Eyes closed against what we don’t want to find
… walking on a wire, walking on the wire…

Forever’s getting close now 
still can’t leave the past behind
It isn’t just getting old, no
We’re telling life goodbye 

We’re sleepwalking through our time
Eyes closed against what we don’t want to find
… walking on a wire, walking on the wire…

it doesn’t matter if we mind
it only rains outside 
Walking on the wire
Running after time
Walking on the wire

Walking on the Wire

We could get lost in this world
Like footprints in the sand
Been out here for a while
No sign of  any plan

Feels like  waiting for someone
Like when you're waiting for someone
Waiting for someone

People’s heads up in the cloud 
look both ways before you cross
the sadness of  wasted time -  
and time’s a vengeful boss 

Feels like waiting for someone
Like when you’re  waiting for someone
Waiting for someone 

Go on, light up all your lights 
Your windows shine into the dark
But when you go outside…
In the still of  the  night 

It feels like  waiting for someone
Like when you’re waiting for someone
Waiting for someone

All tangled up in this world
Spinning circles in the sky
Nothing to hold you
You can feel it unwind

It feels like waiting for someone
Like when you’re waiting for someone
Waiting for someone

On my way  home
We all want to walk the line 
It's the weight of what we carry,
the loss of what we’ve left behind 

It feels like waiting for someone
Like when you're waiting for someone
Waiting for someone

Walking on the Wire
