Day After Day
03:45
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
So you you’re learning they lied
Day after day after day
Now you see that they speak their falsehoods
To spin their reality
They’ve got you chasing paper
They’ve got the slaves guarding the slaves
It’s all about the stories we believe
Day after day after day
VERSE 2:
So you think the world makes sense
Day after day after day
We ignore every evil
As long as we get paid
We’ll send our children to kill and die for them
Wrapped in flags that the bayonets rip right through
Thinking righteousness makes us bullet proof
Day after day after day
VERSE 3:
So you see it’s all just pride
Day after day after day
That won’t let you believe they lied
To be the ones who feel betrayed
And we’re still watching pay-per-view
Instead of seeing each other
Not even believing truth
Day after day after day

A Revolution
03:37
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
Tonight there’ll be a revolution
And if we stand aside
Tomorrow we’ll have nothing
But empty pride
Tonight we’ll be the struggle
The kind we have to win
We’ll play a game of revolving doors
And some of us might get in
CHORUS:
Tonight there’ll be a revolution
We’ll watch the stars fall from the sky
Tonight we’ll see a revolution
Tomorrow we’ll be done with lies
VERSE 2:
Tonight there’ll be a new beginning
And if we let it breathe
There’ll be a chance it changes everything
We’ll have to wait and see
Tonight we’ll see if we are ready
To be who we must be
Tomorrow those who are still standing
Might just believe they’re free

Listen to the Rain
03:32
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
Calling all people, can you see it
The light of truth, and harmony
If you can feel it you can love it
If you can let yourself believe
CHORUS:
I can’t rest, and I can’t dream
So does my life mean anything
And if I never sleep again
Then I can listen to the rain
There are times when I can’t feel
And nothing seems to be quite real
So if I need relief from pain
I can listen to the rain
VERSE 2:
Listen, I will tell you something
Self-reflection should be aimed
If you can’t trust that you’ll be honest
Then there’s no one you can blame

All My Wishes
02:55
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
It doesn’t matter
If you run or if you fight
It’s not important
If you’re wrong or if you’re right
There’ll be a judgement coming
When you’re life is done
No legacy will matter
Except a legacy of love
CHORUS:
I can see that all my wishes
Have just been thrown against the wind
Have I wasted all my wishes
Without improving anything
VERSE 2:
It’s not important
Which side you think you’re on
It makes no difference
We’ve been fighting for so long
Then only enemies
Are hate and greed and want
So are we strong enough
To give before we take another thing

Living the Dream
03:13
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
All my friends said
Hey get up get out of bed
You can be someone
You can be anything
CHORUS:
Oh yeah living the dream
Sounds like something you’d wanna be
But you can only be living the dream
If you are fast asleep
VERSE 2:
My heart tells me
That’s not the world we really see
It’s complicated
And I think it’s manipulated
VERSE 3:
So I guess I chose a path
I don’t remember seeing a map
But here I am anyway
Tomorrow like yesterday

Freedom to Starve
04:23
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
Compassion
Generosity
Kindness
Love and peace
A helping hand
A smile
No thought of profit
For a while
CHORUS:
You say you want freedom
To live the life you please
To challenge each other
For the things you say you need
If you can’t share and you must fight
Because you want more than half
Then all you’re really fighting for
Is the freedom to starve
VERSE 2:
Forgiveness
Redemption
Caring
And acceptance
A thoughtful word
A gentle heart
A partner stands with you
A winner stands apart
|

A World of Love
03:10
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
Having life and energy
Being able to speak the way we feel
All the things we’ve already got
All the people that mean so much
Every moment of ecstasy
Every feeling that you cannot quite believe
All the friends you can share it with
A world of love
A world of love
VERSE 2:
Holding hands under starry skies
Seeing home in the light behind your eyes
Every wonderful memory
Each significant novelty
All the flowers and all the trees
All the beauty we will ever see
Every gentle supporting hug
A world of love
A world of love
VERSE 3:
Watching children just playing free
Safe and sound the way we all know it should be
No evil and no regret
Have we figured it all out yet
Knowing innocence, being just
Feeling mercy and knowing trust
No need to wait for a world above
A world of love
A world of love

Snow
05:34
|
|||
|
VERSE 1:
Snow falling
We’re all falling
Just like snow
Just like snow
And snow’s falling
Just inside us
But all around us
All around us
Snow falling
Stealing all the colours
And warmth’s short
Because snow is falling
VERSE 2:
I’m falling
We’re all falling
Just like snow
Just like snow is falling
We’re falling
Like snow is falling
In your heart you know
You can’t escape when snow is falling
Snow falling
It’s falling
Everywhere, so you can see
That snow covers all of me
Snow falling
We’re all falling
Just like snow
Just like the snow is falling

Ian Luckett (Data) Birmingham, UK
No autotune - EVER!
You may notice I use lots of harmonies in vocal overdubs, but it is always just my voice with maybe some echo and a little bit of reverb!!!!!

The Earth & Me

This band are a magic carpet ride, fabulous atmospheric riffs, and excellent driving rhythms.
