1.Dance This World Away
Everybody looks so spaced out there
Busy bowing to the priests of noise
Turn it up and make it drown out the warning
Bad news for the girls and boys
Everybody looks so romantic
Acting like it's nothing at all
Looking out for number one
Working for the week and living to the beat
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
I see people all dressed like nero
Fiddling while rome burns in strife
Personal responsibility zero
We've lost that rhythm of life
There's a shadow on our bright horizon
It won't be manna falling out of the sky
The hard rain hits everyone
Working for the week and living to the beat
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Somewhere there is a ship that's sinking
Why do i think that nobody knows
Looking out for number one
Working through the week and dancing to the back beat
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
Dance this world away
2.Celebrate Youth
I can see the older man
Looking at the younger man
I can see the younger man
Looking at the boy
Over there the older woman
Is looking at the younger woman
I can see the younger woman
Looking at the girl
'cause every man sees
In the younger man the hope
Every woman sees
In the younger girl the dream
Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
From the womb to the tomb
We will remember what it means
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Those who have it (young ones)
Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Give them sight
The future of the world's in the (celebrate)
Hands of children (young ones)
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Teach them right
Looking in a child's eye
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white
I can see the older man
Sometimes in the older man
I still see the young boy
Burning in his eye
And locked up here inside our spirit
Is the child that we are, hear it
Some of us will always fear it
And some will heed the cry
But everyone sees
In the younger one the hope
Everybody sees
In the younger one the dream
Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
From the womb to the tomb
We will remember what it means
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Those who have it (young ones)
Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Give them sight
The future of the world's in the (celebrate)
Hands of children (young ones)
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Teach them right
Looking in a child's face
There's no pride and no disgrace
There's no struggle, there's no fight
Everybody sees
In the younger one the hope
Everybody sees
In the younger one the dream
Everybody lives
The pride and passion of the young
From the womb to the tomb
We will remember what it means
Looking in a child's eye
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Those who have it (young ones)
Celebrate youth (celebrate)
Give them sight
The future of the world's in the (celebrate)
Hands of children (young ones)
So celebrate youth (celebrate)
Teach them right
Looking in a child's eye
There's no hate and there's no lie
There's no black and there's no white
3.State Of The Heart
I know your name
I told you mine
We've stopped and passed the time of day
You work in town
I work at night
That gives us six until seven to work this out
If i seem a little strange
It's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
In the state i'm in
You are the moon
I am the sea
You pull me in and gaze on down at me
I was alone
I thought i was immune
It's good to know
The door can still be open wide
If i feel a little strange
It's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
In the state i'm in
It's just the state of the heart
I wait in the dark
I the state i'm in
We get closer and closer
To falling out or falling in
I go over and over
But i can't change the state
This heart is in
If i seem a little strange
It's just the state of the heart
I'm waiting here for you
In the state i'm in
It's just the state of the heart
You know i wait in the dark
In the state i'm in
It 's the state of the heart
The state of the heart
The state of the heart
The state of the heart
4.Written In Rock
On my way back from a wedding
I drove round some of the old streets
I got swept up by the memories
Of cold nights and warm sheets
I parked outside the house we'd lived in
I tried to think of all the pain
But all i remembered was the laughter
And the precious trust we can't reclaim
There are no second prizes
And there will be no consolation wreath
We may as well miss by a mile
As miss by the skin of our teeth
They all thought we were some sure thing
I had the bloody coat and wedding ring
But nothing's written in rock
I know i'm not the one
Was i just the great pretender
Written in rock
There was no battle won
Only a mutual surrender
No guarantees, that's alright
If i was gonna stay,
I would have stayed all night
Bye bye love, you were so damn right
Nothing's written in rock
Nothing's written in rock
You finally learned the deep dark secret
That i knew you were waiting for
So i watched the death of innocence
Of the young dreamer at life's door
This world can tear your soul to pieces
If you give it half a chance
There are no rules to remember
There are no written steps to the dance
I don't believe in fate
I don't believe in blind luck of the draw
I don't believe in love
I mean i don't believe anymore
They all thought we were the real thing
I had the bloody coat and the wedding ring
But nothing's written in rock
I know i'm not the one
Was i just the great pretender
Written in rock
There was no battle won
Only a mutual surrender
No guarantees, that's alright
If i was gonna stay,
I would have stayed all night
Bye bye love, you were so damn right
Nothing's written in rock
Nothing's written in rock
I remember you all dewy-eyed and breathless
Pointing the direction to the great promised land
I remember me all petrified and restless
Wondering what you were hiding in the other hand
Everybody keeps a lonely heart
And everybody gets that feeling
Everybody needs another heart
To give a little bit of healing to a battered soul
Oh, nothing's written in rock
Nothing's written in rock
I know i'm not the one
Was i just the great pretender
Written in rock
There was no battle won
Only a mutual surrender
No guarantees, that's alright
If i was gonna stay,
I would have stayed all night
Bye bye love, you were so damn right
Nothing's written in rock
Nothing's written in rock
Oh, nothing's written in rock
5.The Power Of Love(The Tao Of Love)
I think that somewhere along the line
(and it's said, all things return to you in time)
I must have finally opened up to your love
Though i was building a wall at heaven's gate
(everything comes to those who wait)
You must have found a secret path into my soul
And now you're part of my life
I can't believe that this is mine
Every light has its time to shine
I want to understand this change in me
Is it the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is this the tao of love
I feel the power of love
Caught up in the famous paper chase
(in your eyes, i saw how i never fell from grace)
I must have finally opened up to your love
And i heard the battle's not always to the strong
(the race is not always to the fleet)
And the one who seeks to pluck the stars
Will miss the jewels at his feet
Blinded by momentary power
We almost had the final hour
I'll never know what caused the change in me
Was it the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is this the tao of love
I feel the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is this the tao of love
I feel the power of love
And i thought anything for the cause is worth the price
(losing you was the sharp edge of the knife)
Now no more fear, the way is clear
I know you are the power in my life
So better late than never
'cause this heart is yours forever
I'll never know what caused the change in me
Was it the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is this the tao of love
I feel the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is it the power of love
Is this the tao of love
I feel the power of love
I think that somewhere along the line
(and it's said all things return to you in time)
I must have finally opened up to your love
6.Walking On The Edge
Keep on, keep on, whispering in the night
There's no problem if it's not in sight
In the face of annihilation
We still plan futures for the children
Keep on whispering in the night
People talk it's just 'cocktail chatter'
What we say, anyway, doesn't really matter
Everybody, time is tight
We're walking on the edge
Of the long black night
From the left and from the right
They're walking on the edge
Of the long black night
And waiting on the big bang
Wake up, wake up, yes this is your life too
The light of spirit also burns in you
In the face of extermination
We still plan futures for the children
Get up, yes this is your life too
We talk and talk and shake our heads in wonder
Nothing that we can do
Can stop us from going under
Everybody, time is tight
We're walking on the edge
Of the long black night
From the left and from the right
They're walking on the edge
Of the long black night
And waiting on the big bang
I sit here and contemplate my future
And all the songs that we all sing
Don't really do a thing
Everybody, time is tight
We're walking on the edge
Of the long black night
From the left and from the right
They're walking on the edge
Of the long black night
And waiting on the big bang...
7.Walk Like A Man
I got so many thoughts jumping out of my head
And i can't sit still
I'm thinking about the universe
I'm looking at life on earth
I can't shut the camera shutter
I stare at the clock, the years slip away
And i stay confused
I'm dreaming about ＊la raison d're (＊the reason to be)
I'm frightened by the toxic threat
I can't stop the motor running
People saying i should learn some self-control
But i just want to exorcise my soul
And walk like a man, walk like a man
I still feel like a boy and you feel like a girl in my hand
I'm gonna walk like a man, walk like a man
I'm still waiting on the revelation
Here in never-never land
I got so many things jumpin' out of my brain
And i feel so strange
I'm crazy about the car i drive
While people struggle just to stay alive
I can't put the two together
I stare in the bathroom mirror at my face
God, i look so pale
Lines crawl across my face
I'm runnin' in the human race
Yeah, me first, who am i kidding
Where is this peace that comes with age
Someone show me to my cage
Where i can walk like a man, walk like a man
I still feel like a boy
And you feel like a girl in my hand
I'm gonna walk like a man, walk like a man
I'm still waiting on the revelation
Here in never-never land
(when it finally hits me then)
(and only then, i'll understand)
Waiting for the revolution here
In never-never land
Where is this peace that comes with age
Will somebody take me to the stage
Where i can walk like a man, walk like a man
Walk, walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
Walk like a man
I still feel like a boy
And you feel like a girl in my hand
I'm gonna walk like a man, walk like a man
I'm still waiting on the revelation
Here in never-never land
(when it finally hits me then)
(and only then, i'll understand)
Waiting for the revolution here
In never-never land
Walk like a man
8.Tao Of Heaven
Surrender surrender surrender
The light of spirit burns in everyone
The diamond's buried deep (surrender)
When the heart is ready the teacher will come
Nothing remains without change (surrender)
The tao of heaven shines in every eye
The diamond's buried deep (surrender)
It's a gateless gate for those who never try
Nothing remains without change (surrender)
The light of spirit burns in everyone
The diamonds buried deep (surrender)
When the heart is ready the teacher will come
Nothing remains without change (surrender)
The tao of heaven shines in every eye
The diamond's buried deep (surrender)
It's a gateless gate for those who never try
9.Stranger In The House
We don't talk much
We don't make love like we used to
And i stay guarded
I've got walls and triggers
I never thought i had
And so do you
But this is love
And that's the way we seem content to play it
I touch your clothes when you're gone
I let your scent wash over me
You cry at night and you wish just like a child
That we were how we used to be
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
And she looks like somebody from a lifetime ago
I stonewall you, you stonewall me
But we both know that
Hiding deep inside us
Lives the love that we try hard to lose
And never will
But this is war
And that's the way we seem content to fight it
I get so angry and confused 'cause
I want out but i want you
You can't decide between moving out or moving in
You don't know what to do
With a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
And she looks like you
And he looks like me
Is this the same girl that, i fought so hard to win
And now i fight to lose her
Now i feel that it's just like skin to skin
And nerve to nerve
Strung out like wire
Is that the way we are content to live
We face off in anger
In rooms once filled with love
Looking for a chink in the armour
Where we can stab the blade
What are we thinking of
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
And she looks like somebody from a lifetime ago
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
There's a stranger in the house
In the house
10.My Father's Chair
My father's chair still standing there
All alone since the long night
Now it's three years on and i still feel
He'll come home, we'll be alright
So where's this healing time brings
I was told the pain would ease
But it still hurts like the first night
That night my brother, my mother and i
Were looking up at a distant star
And wishing we could reach that far
And back in the house
And alone for the first time
We told each other we cared
We avoided my father's chair
I watch my family, we hold on
We are strong and we'll be alright
The clock continues counting down, all the while
And every child will share the long night
But do the spirits meet again
Why am i still so filled with doubt
Is my soul everlasting
And the far distant future
When i knew you'd be gone
Came too fast and stays too long
Why do they leave the weak of spirit
And take the strong
When the world turns sour
And i get sick from the smell
And i can't find no comfort there
I climb into my father's chair
