All I Know
03:27
|

I’m not swimming any oceans – for you And I’m not climbing any mountains – it’s true I’m sitting here on my own – feeling blue Writing this is all I know – what to do
It’s all I know
Clouds join and form teardrops in the sky Falling down in time with my beating heart
While you’re in another land – far from me A flood of love like a king tide – washes over me Elements I can’t define – are taking over me Images in my mind – to ease the pain

Start Again
03:43
|

Every time you lie you cannot hide We can see right through your thin disguise
Symbolic of your silent lonely cry It’s hard to swim against a king tide
And I Imagine you’re feeling rather scared You gotta now how much we care The pain from every cut, we all share
Our emptiness when you’re here but you’re not there
No matter what it is you say or think The walls are paper thin and devoid of all bricks
If you let us help to end the pain Every life can start again

Parasite
03:49
|
|||
Sometimes my heart feels the passion of a stone Inside of my mind, I’m empty and alone No speech no touch, no feel or appeal No strength no drive, no feeling I’m alive
And I can feel this weight There's nothing you can say Make this go away Its sticking to my skin – like a parasite
The wrecking ball, takes over all my thoughts
Crashing through walls, avoiding all my doubts
I’m heavy I’m light I’m laughing and crying
I’m up I’m down I’m standing I’m foetal on the ground
Its inside my skin – burning within Its inside my veins – unbearable pain
Its inside my brain and I can’t stop this train
And I have become – what got me undone

An Idle Thought
02:53
|
|||
An idle thought, for one brief moment Skies capturing my past lifetime Filtering all the unhappiness Love comes falling from the sky
One more look around One glance to a life left behind The photograph I never forgot Held in my hand
Pictures from a million yesterday’s Held up to a minor role that I was cast A scene that will forever last Conclusions are illusions by stark contrast
Imagery held in my hand Memory held in my hand Joyfully held in my hand Regretfully held in my heart

Noble
04:37
|
|||
I felt the warmth between the sheets As the sun baked against the bricks I healed inside your hidden walls You were my very soft place to fall
And all the while you felt my pain My deepest secrets hidden far away You became my one and only voice There never was a second choice
So goodbye, to my noble memory You helped me to write each verse My companion in my lonely universe It was you who made me see Pain is eased through creativity
As the bond began to grow The seed within began to sow All I needed was the space you gave Inside plaster walls and architraves
There’s only one thing that I regret
That together we face our last sunset
You will always be a part of me
Written in these words eternally

Western Beach
04:08
|
|||
The sun blazes in the sky And the clouds just run and they hide And the perfect blue of the bay Every minutes just like the perfect day
And as we look out to another mile And gaze and marvel at each and every tide Beauty surrounds us with an awe we cannot hide Here on Western Beach Where our hearts will soar
And the boats sway out in the breeze And the palms flap elegantly And the birds are singing in the willow tree And the puppy’s sitting smiling at our feet
I will remember

Jean Bernice

You’re trying to get through one day I’m dreaming of you in old age Breaking every rule along the way The shortest story one glorious page
Loving eyes of Jean Bernice Got us falling for you Everyday a smile Jean Bernice Its you’re calling
I wonder what it would be like To watch you flying high as a kite With all the love that you could bring To everyone and everything
Innocence and eyes so bright Turn the darkness into sunlight Stop the world to hear you sing Your life is the gift you bring – Jean Bernice

Heaven From This Gloom
03:31
|
|||
If you’re broken, I will be your glue Within our bubble, nothing can hurt you And if I see you cry, my heart will break in two Until the flood subsides, I’m just a mirror image of you
There aint no guarantees The grass wont bend in the breeze There aint no guarantees
So if you wanna run, lets reside on the moon Or we can stay and dream of lazy afternoons Keep the curtains drawn, inside our love cocoon Whatever it takes to make, our heaven from this gloom
I’ll be your glue Inside our love cocoon Until the flood subsides Our heaven from this gloom (whatever it takes)

First Love and Last
05:03
|
|||
Wrote a thousand words or more To a girl that I had yet to meet Just a picture inside my youthful head Oblivious to what this all meant
Dreams never last Adolescent love will never last Just a dream left in the past
Tried to look so hard and cool As we meet underneath the tree My cigarette swirling in the morning breeze Our eyes meet and its destiny
Our today is forever Who we are for each other
First love and last An end that meets the start First love and last You can’t deceive your heart (dreams never die, dreams)
Together forever, at last

What is Left
05:06
|
|||
Out of the darkness, I can hear my heartbeat softly And each and every bitter pill never tasted so sweet If messages fail to get through behind these closed walls I will create some happy thoughts and make my world seem small
Angels meet with cowards Behind this human zoo You shield yourself from crying Anger and the truce And you ask yourself, what is left
Familiar voices echo through this long dark hallway That magnifies my fear, my instincts I shall obey And in this light and in this day I recall every tear As if I had relived the past so long ago, it seems quite near
