Here I Am
. . .


I can't give
When you give nothing in return
I can't live
When all my freedom's burned
Above me
In front of me no room for you
Beside me
Is all that I can do

Don't hold me
Don't tie me down
Don't change me
Leave what you've found
All alone

So quiet
Your insecurities are clear
You hide it
There's so much that you fear
Run naked
There's beauty in an open soul
Just break it
Your desire to control

Don't hold me
Don't tie me down
Don't change me
Leave what you've found
You won't break me
I won't turn around
You can't take me
And leave what you found
All alone

All alone
Don't try your ideals at me
All alone baby I'm not something that you can own
All alone I won't live in your world for me
All alone Look at me I'm better of
All alone on the run from reality
All alone the light's on but baby I won't be home
All alone your attitude is all pride to me
All alone keep it up and you're gonna be
All alone

. . .

Thank You

Deja Vu

[No lyrics]

. . .


I saw the sunrise on the hill
And at once I remembered how it felt
To feel warm and safe inside
It was like waking for the first time
In a long time and in my mind
The seasons changed and winter died, bye bye

My world is brighter
My view much wider
New beginning
First breath of air
I'm so aware of
New beginning
I'm thankful for the chance to start again
I've turned the page, a change came with the wind
It's not the end, it's a new beginning

After the rain washed my soul
And turned a bitterness to innocence I knew
The path was open to move on
Allow me to offer you my hand
Let me introduce myself again
The girl I used to be is gone, so long

My world is brighter
My view much wider
New beginning
First breath of air
I'm so aware of
New beginning
I'm thankful for the chance to start again
I've turned the page, a change came with the wind
It's not the end
It's a new beginning

Got a new state of mind
I left that other world behind me
It's been a long hard climb
But on this mountain top is where you'll find me

My world is brighter
My view much wider
New beginning
First breath of air
I'm so aware of
New beginning
I'm thankful for the chance to start again
I've turned the page, a change came with the wind
It's not the end
It's a new beginning

. . .


I stand still
I'm frozen
I feel no pain
My heart stops
I'm chosen and so I fade away
My arms weak with emptyness
My soul sleeps
I'm Heavenless
Heavenless

There's no sky above me
Still shadows I can see
The darkness took over and left me free
No left turn no tenderness
Hereafter Is heavenless
Heavenless

Alone I see
Is freezing me
The ice runs deep
Inside of me

The earth spins beneath me
As lifetime slips away
Each moment so quickly
Becoming yesterday
Afraid I'll die of lonelyness
I'm scared that I am Heavenless
Heavenless
Heavenless

. . .


Dance with spirit Closer near it

Feel the presence Now don't fear it

I can take you with me If you follow

Fly trough forrest Hear their stories

Learn of things they've seen before us

I will share this all If you follow

If you trust me Paradise everywhere

My heart will take you there If you love me

My world is open to you If you follow

Drink the rain and Taste the sweetness

See the sky The way it sees us

Hold the sun and more If you follow

Touch the clouds And race the moonlight

Play with stars and Capture midnight

All of this is yours If you follow

If you trust me Paradise everywhere

My heart will take you there If you love me

My world is open to you And this is not just fantasy

Dream if you wan tit to be If you meant to follow, follow me

If you trust me Paradise everywhere

My heart will take you there If you love me

My world is open to you

What are you going to do Will you follow, Follow, follow

. . .


What's all this confusion?
Just look at this mess
There's too much information,
I can do with a little less
Everything's gotten out of hand,
I need some space in here...

I'm crouded up in no-time
opinions everywhere
And nothing's makin' any sense
Total chaos livin' there
Who takes responsability
It is all so unclean..

Nothin' left but to

Ref:
Clean up, got to clean up my head
Throw out all the dark, let the light shine in instead
Free and, all the lies that I've been fed
Clean up, got to clean up my head..

Enough insinuations,
let's deal with just the facts
You've created all this anyway
Get this monkey off my back!
You're supposed to be the expert
Don't point your finger at me!!

(ooh, ooh, ooh..)

Ref:
Clean up, got to clean up my head
Throw out all the dark, let the light shine in instead
Free and, all the lies that I've been fed
Clean up, got to clean up my head..

Bridge:
It's not the money
It's not the fame
It's not even how you try to trash my name
It's time to clean the air with a little class,
I'm movin' out and if you don't like it you can kiss my ass!!

Ref:
Clean up, got to clean up my head
Throw out all the dark, let the light shine in instead
Free and, all the lies that I've been fed
Clean up, got to clean up my head..

Ref:
Clean up, got to clean up my head
Throw out all the dark, let the light shine in instead
Free and, all the lies that I've been fed
Clean up, got to clean up my
Clean up, got to clean up my
Clean up, got to clean up!

. . .


You can't hide the darker side of you
You can't disguise a lie, and call it truth
You neglect responsibility
And sacrifice your dignity
You do it all so shamelessly

Tour motivation is your bottom line
Its not enough to take what's yours
You take what's mine
Your religion is kind of funny
It seems you worship money
Heartless and mechanical soul

Machine people
Industrial disease
Machine people
Is it worth loosing your humanity

I'm almost glad that I found out
What you've become, I can live without
Was I just to blind to see
Your lack of morality
It's painfully obvious now

Machine people
Industrial disease
Machine people
Is it worth loosing your humanity

A perfect state of mind
Takes a little time
And a sense of wrong and right
Let our conscience be our guide

Machine people
Industrial disease
Machine people
Is it worth loosing your humanity

You can't hide your darker side
Can't disguise a lie
Neglect responsibility

. . .

Not Waiting For You

[No lyrics]

. . .


Now baby we should go back to where we started from
I know we feel the reasons, let's pick them up and run
Let's not let confusion cover up the shine
There's no use in denial, we can't reinvent this time
Look me in the eye and see my love
Take me by my hand, you'll know why
It's just me and you
There's no reason to
Be shy

We'll bring back all the colours and paint outside of your lines
Use the pieces of this picture like a poet uses rhyme
Recapture all the passion, play a lovers game
To not would be a crime, to wait would be a shame
Look me in the eye and see my love
Take me by my hand, you'll know why
It's just me and you
There's no reason to
Be shy

Let go
You will see
Follow your heart
Look me in the eye and see my love
Take me by my hand, you'll know why
It's just me and you
There's no reason to
Be shy

We know what to do
There's no reason to be shy
You don't have to be shy
No no
Shy oh

. . .


If we could look down from above
Would we see constellations off
You and me revolving ?round
Our own lives

Are we like stars, set in our way
Only to fall and burn one day
Do we shine, not knowing
Our own light

What is forever
When every sky shows
As soon as one light ?s out
Another one glows
All of us wonder where do we go
Is it dark, is it light, nobody really knows

When we wish upon a star
For our souls to meet again not far
Does it come true or is it just
A nursery rhyme
And when my time on earth is done
Is a shooting star what I become
Was an impression made, or do I just fade
From your mind

What is forever
When every sky shows
As soon as one light ?s out
Another one glows
All of us wonder where do we go
Is it dark, is it light, nobody really knows

. . .

Here I Am
