Brighter stars you won’t find
As I’ve had in my life
It’s like when stars collide.
You and me from the start
Connectees at the heart
We had what you’d describe
We have what you’d describe
It’s light years ahead, behind.
You and me from the start
Connectees at the heart
You and me from the start
Connectees at the heart

The Company
06:41
|

Defensive posture as you struggle for breath
Positional pressure in the company
Why are there not lines of people out there?
This would have happened in the 70’s
Free from that
Free From That
And you can make all that you can make of
Impressions of avant garde choices.
Greatest danger the winning can wait for ones
Artistic and loosely spoke voices
Free from that
Free from that
Youth of today dont know when they're born
Try telling that when they've no pension
Petrol today it just costs a bomb
Try saying that when yes its all done
Squeeze them some more and they'll start to sweat
Feed them some more and then they'll forget
Youth of today dont know when they're born

Save Yourself
05:06
|

I am going nowhere
Save yourself
I’ll only hold you back here
Save yourself
I would be nothing without this
I find within it such sweet sacred bliss
I’ll be fine from here
Save yourself
Come back when its clear
Save yourself
I would be nothing without this
I find within it such sweet sacred bliss
How can you aim so straight but somehow miss
Its like trying to hit a target blindfolded
With a cannonball

Cryings Not Appropriate
03:26
|
|||
It’s not right for grown men to cry
I think that I’d look a fool
I’ve fought them but believe me inside
I’ve amassed several buckets full
But how can you cry
At something so beautiful really
And I hope that I
Don’t shed one in your time Lucy
What’s it about
It’s about loving completely
Yes I know that now
And crying’s not appropriate really
Well I’m not going to kid you
You’ll find out its not easy
But if you keep in good company
Pretty soon you will see that
You’ll find peace and understanding
Within that find intelligence
Within that find endurance
Within you find your spirit
But how can you cry
At something so wonderful really
And I hope that I
Don’t shed one in your time Lucy
What’s it about
It’s about loving completely
I know that now
That crying’s not appropriate really
Crying’s not appropriate really.

A Brand New Manual
05:39
|
|||
All that glimmers isn’t always gold
A phrase that I've familiarized
Seeking is but one thing
Oh but findings o-
-nly one more thing you have to find
I’ve got to stop reading
My mind it’s feeding
Too much uncertainty
These myths you cant dispel
A brand new manual
Has got me conceding
The more I discover, the more I know
The more I turn my back to.
Someone the magic, someone show
Till someone gets condemned too
I’ve got to stop reading
My mind it’s feeding
Too much uncertainty
These myths you cant dispel
A brand new manual
Has got me conceding

Advice To A Son
07:11
|
|||
My son, keep sound wisdom and discretion
Let them not escape from your vision
And they will be life for your soul
so you will walk
Securely and will not stumble
My son receive my words and,
Treasure them, my words to you.
Keep your ear tuned to wisdom
Understand
If they say come with us let us wait for blood
Those who plan to ambush the innocent
Hold back your foot from the path for these men lie
In wait for their own blood
My son receive my words and
Treasure them, my words to you
Keep your ear tuned to wisdom
Understand this heart of yours
Seek wisdom just like silver
Use its gems, to light your road
Seek it like hidden treasure.

The Force Had...
05:51
|
|||
They loosened
They’re collars and agreed they’d lost their way
The force had
Breached the hull and opened the floodgates
But while they
Contemplated what could be undone
They failed to
Realise what they had done were gone
The force had
The four sad
Breath out
And in
They tried but
Their systems had gone down as they had slept
They realised
It’s better to be free than to be kept
The force had
The four sad
