All From You 03:34
I'd be lying if I told you I'm trying hard I'd be lying if I told you I believe When my heart and my mind they are divided Something in me that I just can seem to shake All love is from you All of is from you And I'd be lying if I told you I'll fall in line I'd be lying if I told you I'll concede When every human has a hunger to belong And every Lover has a right and will to be All love is from you All of is from you With one love song One lifetime One chance to shed a little light What is right is simply to love And I keep my eyes on your heart tonight

Geppetto 04:03
Always questioned how what when and why But I'm getting colder Always on the better side of time But I'm getting older Now I feel my nose grow twice the size when I say I don't mind Wooden heart beyond the bark of which tree Well I was willing to bite in, I was I was, I was willing to bite Give me just a moment to wonder Leave me with a lifetime of speculation For all of eternity just hanging on your noose And tell me if you're really now up there Ruling through the stars in the consolations Tell me is it me or you who's giving up too soon Oh Geppetto Oh Geppetto Always felt the drum kick out of time On every given Sunday Always thought the darkness stole my light But I feel it in me Yet, in every corner of my mind My sins all have an echo Wooden stake to pearly gates, my wet dreams I guess I'm willing to burn, I am Yes I guess I, yes I'm willing to burn Give me just a moment to wonder Leave me a lifetime of speculation For all of eternity just hanging on your noose And tell me if you're really now up there Ruling through the stars in the consolations Tell me is it me or you who's giving up too soon You give me just a moment to wonder Leave me a lifetime of speculation For all of eternity just hanging on your noose And tell me if you're really now up there Ruling through the stars and the consolations Tell me is it me or you who's giving up too soon Tell me is it me or you who's giving up too soon Tell me is it me or you who's given up too soon Oh Geppetto Oh Geppetto Oh Geppetto

Trying harder, trying harder It takes much more to believe Such a waste now to deceive yourself for something out there In my life sometimes I pray Never knowing what comes after the sun and the moonlight Picking apples left to rot In a garden getting dark I lay my head against your thigh Close my hands around your heart And we'll wait for.. and we'll pray And we'll wait for.. And we'll.. Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder to believe Trying harder Picking apples left in the dark In a garden set to fall You lay your head against my thigh Close your hands around my heart And we'll wait for.. and we'll pray And we'll wait for.. And we'll.. Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder to believe Trying harder Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder Out of sight and out of mind Trying harder to believe

I am a hurricane Your ball and chain The mess you leave behind I am the shame unshared The cross you bear The splinter in your eye I am the missing piece The restless sleep The dark between the light And I'm more than memories I'm chemistry The demon you deny What am I? Deep inside this skin Trying not to notice me And I trace the steps you take The smiles you fake The broken promises And I'm right behind those eyes I see your lies Sold softly with a kiss You're never fine..... What a Iie? You dare defile this skin Well the truth is I care

Hear them like a thousand drums beat against the walls of your heart Nothing but the echo left to fall upon deaf ears Hear another life so young let go of the hope to grow old Today is just too late to change his mind And why now, when we could be much better Do we close our eyes to the world around us Tell me why now, when we could be much better Do we keep our hearts closed And why now, when we could be much better Do we let the difference try to separate us Tell me why now, when we could be much better Do we keep our hearts closed And our heads down See it as a nation falls victim to the hands of its own The silence serves to fuel the hate within But we're all keepers of this earth you and I Common thread that runs between our very lives Together now we are wielding like a sword The power to ignite in love Or the power to ignore So why now, when we could be much better Do we close our eyes to the world around us Tell me why now, when we could be much better Do we keep our hearts closed And why now, when we could be much better Do we let the difference try to separate us Tell me why now, when we could be much better Do we keep our hearts closed And our heads down And why now, when we could be much better Do we close our eyes to the ones who need us Tell me why now, when we could be much better Do we keep our hearts closed And why now, when we could be much better Do we let the difference try to separate us Tell me why now, when we could be much better Do we keep our hearts closed And our heads down And our heads down And our heads down What a world to lose What is it worth to you

Come United 03:14
Yeah we're living in a system of chains Disappearing into numbers from names Break away from the mold From the want to die young Taste the freedom at the tip of your tongue Come united in Humanity Break the Silence To be who you want to be Dignified, moralized, sensitized Come alive and be free Come united with me Yeah were living but we don't open our eyes Slowly drifting through a lost paradise Break away from their hold Graduate from the lies Find the freedom at the back of your mind You know I never thought I'd make it but now I might Bring the change I want to see in my own life Though bridges burned These stepping stones Lead me to dreams I thought I could never own This wolf inside of me Is my worst enemy But it gave me the choice to be voiceless Or find the will to say what I wished only to suppress And now I'm flying high I feel inside The truth is what we need Indeed it's what we need to Come united in Humanity Break the Silence To be who you want to be Dignified, moralized, sensitized Come alive and be free Come united with me Oh Come united yeah Come united with me Oh Come united yeah Come united with meacoustic, pop, queer, singer Come united with me

Diamonds 04:13
You're like a heartbeat and I can feel you coursing through my veins You are every harmony and I can hear you whisper in the wind And only time will tell if all you're searching for are the diamonds in my tears Diamonds in my eyes or in my tears You set me free From the chains that I am in You're like a lucid dream I'm paralysed and helpless to your love Susceptible to anything so tell me the intentions of your heart For only time will tell if all you're searching for are the diamonds in my tears Yeah only time will tell if all you're searching for are the diamonds in my tears Diamonds in my eyes Diamonds in my eyes or in my tears You set me free From the chains that I am in

I let you love me like you, I let you love me like you wanted Just keep it physical, you know that feelings don't belong here It's nothing serious so I give much less than you need It's just a moment of lust while we drift in between The end and the beginning I know what's happening now You body's bruised and bound Caught in the Rhythm Oh tell me can't you see What don't end easily Gets caught in the rhythm of love I let you captivate and set my senses alight But oh no, I dare not let go and let your heart fool my mind It's nothing serious so you give much less than I need Now God forgive me if I should falter between The end and the beginning I know what's happening now My body's bruised and bound Caught in the Rhythm Oh tell me can't you see What don't end easily Gets caught in the rhythm of love And now, were running round looking out for any sign of truth And now you're getting tired walking wires picking up the pieces And now, were running round looking out for any sign of truth And now you're getting tired walking wires picking up the pieces Picking up the pieces Caught in the rhythm of love

Raga Who 03:03
Her lips are unforgettable Her touch like heroin The rush is unbelievable One taste and I'm in deep The flames they dance behind her eyes Like dragons blood the burn Our shadows move around the fire By morning light she's gone Raga who? Oh what's coming over me Raga, Raga who? Is there something I don't see Raga who? Raga who? Oh she'll leave you more than fine Send the shivers up your back Chase them right down through your spine Raga who? Raga who? She lives for the night My mind it marks the memory Close my eyes and I savour the sting Branded by your longing love Now I trace it on my skin Umba umbada..... Raga who? Oh what's coming over me Raga, Raga who? Is there something I don't see? Raga who? Raga who? Oh she'll leave you more than fine Send the shivers up your back Chase them right down through your spine Raga who Raga who She lives for the night

Although his silence it may fool us all Behind his eyes I see the screaming He's got a love to outshine the sun Though his heart is barely beating He needs a miracle to shake these walls But every day I see her climbing Just to permeate his broken soul I pray one day he lets the light in He's drowning in his own damn tears Suffering from all his fears With love she carries on and dreams Wont you breathe it in deep And know that love won't die And now she can only sit and wait For him to see the world in colour I hope he's strong enough to heal his mind I hope he turns around to love her He's drowning in his own damn tears Suffering through all these years With love she carries on and dreams Wont you breathe it in deep And know that love won't die Realise this moment Find no shame in being broken Never say it's over Don't be deceived you're never alone Breathe it in deep, breathe it in ... He's drowning in his own damn tears Suffering through all his fears With love she carries on and dreams Wont you breathe it in deep..

Gimme loving till the morning love Kiss me harder and just squeeze me tight Got me hanging on the words you say Falling faster than I did yesterday I'm still falling in love I'm still falling for you I'm still falling in love, Love Gimme loving till the morning love Kiss me harder and just squeeze me tight Got me hanging on the words you say Falling faster than I did yesterday Gimme your heart and I'll keep it warm Take my hand and hold it close to yours All of heaven and the seas of starts Don't hold a candle to this love of ours Im still falling in love Im still falling for you Im still falling in love, Love

Take my breath Spread it in the wind my Love One day we’ll break free from this place It’s cold outside Chills me to the bone Winters bride Snow turns red with every heartbeat La dadida.. Take my breath Free me from this stone Some day I might feel warmth It’s cold as ice Suffocating smiles Summers child Life goes on even without me La dadida.. Wont you dance slow darling Dance slow with my heart Wont you dance slow darling Dance slow with my heart Wont you dance slow darling Dance slow with my heart Wont you dance slow darling Dance slow with my heart With my heart Wont you dance slow darling Dance slow with my heart With my heart With my heart With every heartbeat With my heart With every heartbeat With my heart Take my breath Spread it in the wind Take my breath Spread it in the wind Take my breath Spread it in the wind

I'm going away to find my feet Packing up my thoughts for places they've never been I'm leaving this town and I'm leaving you I'm setting my sights on skies of a deeper blue Well I'm going away so here's my goodbye I'll keep you safe in my heart love but far away from my mind Far away from my mind Far away from my mind I'm going away 'cus I've got to get out now Your love Your love is making me feel so God damn breakable breakable Breakable breakable I'm going away so here's my goodbye I'll keep you safe in my heart love but far away from my mind Far away from my mind Far away from my- Far away from my mind Far away from my Far away from my mind Far away from my mind And I'm gonna go where my own dreams take me Fly where the warm winds blow And I'll surely learn to live In a world without you In a world without you

Dreamers 04:21
Some stay some move along Some stay until the feelings gone Some stay their whole lives long Some never seem to find someone Some living with their bruises and their scars Some living with a hardened heart Some living with a love so deep Only heaven can fathom fathom fathom fathom Only heaven can fathom We can't stop the world from spinning round We are only dreamers We can't stop the love from burning out We can't stop the world from spinning round We are only dreamers We can't stop the love from burning out But we can dream Darling, dream We can dream won't you dream with me Oh we can dream Darling, dream We can dream won't you dream with me We can't stop the world from spinning round We are only dreamers We can't stop the love from burning out We can't stop the world from spinning round We are only dreamers We can't stop the love from burning out But we can dream Darling, dream We can dream won't you dream with me Oh we can dream Darling, dream We can dream won't you dream with me Some stay some move along Some stay until the feelings gone
