DROWNED WORLD

I traded fame for love
Without a second thought
It all became a silly game
Some things cannot be bought
I got exactly what I asked for
Wanted it so badly
Running, rushing back for more
I suffered fools, so gladly
And now I find I've changed my mind
I've changed my mind

Chorus:
The face of you, my substitute for love
My substitute for love
Should I wait for you, my substitute for love
My substitute for love

Travelled round the world
Looking for a home
I found myself in crowded rooms
Feeling so alone
I had so many lovers who settled for the thrill
Of basking in my spotlight
I never felt so happy

Chorus

Mmmm Ohh
No famous faces, far off places,
Trinkets I can buy
No handsome stranger, heady for danger
No ferris wheel, no heart to steal
No laughter in the dark
No one night stand, no far off land
No fire that I can spark
Mmmm Mmmm

Chorus

Now I find I've changed my mind
This is my religion

SWIM

Put your head on my shoulder baby
Things can't get any worse
Night is getting colder, sometimes
Life feels like it's a curse

Chorus 1:
I can't carry these sings on my back
Don't wanna carry any more
I'm gonna carry this train off the track
Gonna swim to the ocean floor mmmm
Crash to the other shore mmm

Children killing children while the
Students rape thier teachers
Comets fly across the sky
While the churches burn their preachers

Chorus 2:
We can't carry these sins on our back
Don't wanna carry anymore
We're gonna carry this train off the track
We're gonna swim to the ocean floor mmmm
Crash to the other shore mmm
Swim to the ocean floor

Let the water wash over you
Wash it all over you
Swim ot the ocean floor
So that we can begin again
Wash away all our sins
Crash to the other shore
Mmmm Mmmm

Repeat Chorus 1 & 2

Crash to the other shore

RAY OF LIGHT

Zephyr in the sky at night I wonder
Do my tears of mourning
Sink beneath the sun
She's got herself a universe gone quickly
For the call of thunder, threatens everyone

Chorus
And I feel like I just got home and I feel
And I feel like I just got home and I feel

Faster than the speeding light she's flying
Trying to remember where it all began
She's got herself a little piece of heaven
Waiting for the time when earth shall be as one

Chorus

Quicker than a Ray of Light
Quicker than a Ray of Light
Quicker than a Ray of Light

Zephyr in the sky at night I wonder
Do my tears of mourning
Sink beneath the sun
She's got herself a universe gone quickly
For the call of thunder, threatens everyone

And I feel
Quicker than a Ray of Light
Then gone for someone else shall be there
She's got herself a universe
She's got herself a universe
She's got herself a universe

And I feel, and I feel
Like I just got home
Quicker than a Ray of Light
She's flying
Quicker than a Ray of Light
She's flying

SKIN

Chorus:
Do I know you from somewhere
Why do you leave me wanting more
Why do all the things I say
Sound like the stupid things I said before

Kiss me I'm dying
Put your hand on my skin
I close my eyes
I need to make a connection
I'm walking on a thin line

I close my eyes
I close my eyes

Chorus

Touch me I'm trying
To see inside of your soul
I've got this thing
I want to make a correction
I'm not like this all the time
You've got this thing
You've got this thing

Chorus

Kiss me I'm dying
Put your hand on my skin
I close my eyes
I need to have your portection
I close my eyes
I close your eyes

Chorus

NOTHING REALLY MATTERS

When I was very young
Nothing really mattered to me
But making myself happy
I was the only one
Now that I'm grown
Everythings changed
I'll never be same because of you

Chorus
Nothing really matters
Love is all we need
Everything I give you
All comes back to me

Looking at my life
It's very clear to me
I lived so selfishly
I was the only one
I realise that nobody wins
Something is ending and something begins

Chorus (2X)

Nothing takes the past away like the future
Nothing makes the darkness poor like the light
You're shelter from the storm
Gives me comfort in your arms

Chorus (3X) to fade

SKY FITS HEAVEN

Sky fits heaven so fly it
That's what the prophet said to me
Child fits mother so hold your baby tight
That's what my future could see

Traveling down this road
Watching the signs as they go
I think I'll follow the sun
Isn't everyone just
Traveling down their own road
Watching the signs as they go

Fate fits karma so use it
That's what the wise man said
Love fits virtue so hold on to the light
That's what our future will be

Chorus

I think I'll follow my heart
It's a very good place to start

Chorus 2:
Travelling down my own road
Wathcing the signs as they go
Traveling traveling
Watching the signs as they go

Chorus 2

Hand fits giving so do it
Thats't what the Gospel said to me
Life fits living so let your judgements go
That's how our future should be

SHANTI / ASHTANGI

Vunde gurunam caranaravinde
Sandarsita svatma sukhavabodhe
Hala hala

Ahahu purusakaram
Sankaha cakrasi dharinam d ha rinam
Saharsra sirasam
Vande

English Translation:

I worship the gurus' lotus feet
Awakening the happiness of the self revealed
Beyond comparison
Working like the jungle physician
To pacify loss of consciousness

From the poison of existence
In the form of a man up to the shoulders
Holdiing a conch, discus and sword
Thousand headed, white
I bow respectfully
Peace

FROZEN

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen when your heart's not open

You're so concerned with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken when your heart's not open

Chorus
Mmm If I could melt your heart
Mmm We'd never be apart
Mmm Give yourself to me
Mmm You hold the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I'd suffer the same
If I lose you, my heart will be broken
Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside you die
You're frozen when your heart's not open

Chorus

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You're frozen when your heart's not open

(Chorus 2x)

If I could melt your heart...

POWER OF GOODBYE

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken I loved you so
Freedom comes when you learn to let go
Creation comes when you learn to say no, walk away

You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress you had to burn
Pain is the warning that something's wrong
I pray to God that it wont be long, walk away

Chorus
There's nothing left to try
There's no place left to hide
There's no greater power
Than the Power of Goodbye

Your heart is not open so I must go
The spell has been broken, I loved you so
You were my lesson I had to learn
I was your fortress

Chorus
There's nothing left to lose
There's no more heart to bruise
There's no greater power
Than the Power of Goodbye
Learn to say goodbye
I yearn to say goodbye

TO HAVE AND NOT TO HOLD

To have and not to hold
So hot yet so cold
My heart is in your hand
And yet you never stand
Close enough for me to have my way
To love but not to keep
to laugh not to weep

Your eyes they go right through
And yet you never do
Anything to make me want to stay
Like a moth to a flame
Only I am to blame

Ba ba da ba ba ba
What can I do
Ba ba da ba ba ba
I go straight to you
ba ba da ba ba ba
I've been told
You're to have not to hold

To look but not to see
To kiss but never be
The object of your desire
I'm walking on a wire
And ther'es no one at all
To break my fall

LITTLE STAR

Chorus:
Never forget who you are
Little star
Never forget how to dream
Butterfly

God gave a present to me
Made of flesh and bones
My life my soul
You make my spirit whole

Never forget who you are
Little star
Shining brighter than
All the stars in the sky
Never forget how to dream
Butterfly
Never forget where you come from
From love

You are a treasure to me
You are my star
You breath new life
Into my broken heart

Chorus

May the angels protect you
And sadness forget you
Little star
There's no reason to weep
Lay your head down to sleep
Little star
May goodnes surround you
My love I have found you
Little star
Shining bright

MER GIRL

I ran from my house that cannot contain me
From the man that I cannot keep
From my mother who haunts me
Even though she's gone

From my daughter that never sleeps
I ran from the noise and the silence
From the traffic on the streets
I ran to the treetops
I ran to the sky, out to the lake
Into the rain that matted my hair

And soaked my shoes and skin
Hid my tears, hid my fears
I ran to the forest, I ran to the trees
I ran and ran, I was looking for me

I ran past the churches
And the crooked mailbox
Past the apple orchards
And the lady that never talks

Up into the hills, I ran to the cemetary
And held my breath
And thought about your death
I ran to the lake, up into the hills
I ran and ran

I'm looking there still and I saw my tears
I cursed the angels, I tasted my fears
And the ground gave way beneath my feet
And the earth took me in her arms
Leaves covered my face
Ants marched across my back
The black sky opened up
Blinding me, I ran to the forest
I ran to the trees, I ran and ran

I was looking for me
I ran to the lakes and up to the hill
I ran and ran, I'm looking there still
And I smelt her burning flesh, her rotting bones
Her decay, I ran and ran
I'm still running today
