Aftermath

Picture me up high upon a hill talking to a voice I'm hearing still.
Living with the aftermath of you
I reach into the ashes of the day that magnify the problems in our way. Living with the aftermath of you.
Voices from on high have called me down.
The moonlights jagged edge has caught me still
I've waited for all time upon this hill.
Living with the aftermath of you.

Fall Like A Stone

The flowering fields are tracing the steps of the sun
In earlier years I raced where children now run
I walk towards the light and I feel the warmth on my face
So long ago I must remember this place.
Hey I feel like I fall like a stone.
The clouds cross the sky and don't know a valley from hill
the view from my eyes is clouded by my own free will.
The whim of the wind will carry them high up above,
let them live on high deliver me to my love.
Hey I feel like I fall like a stone.
We take chances when we look for love.
We have the time somehow we don't have the faith
to lift us above and take us all out of this place.
Like embers in fire we rise from the heat of the night
and glow like the stars that shine all through the night.
Hey I feel like I fall like a stone.
We take chances when we look for love.

Principles

The ghost of the past lie hidden from view
as they vanish without a trace can't I pay dues,
can't I pay dues can't evil hide its face.
Old winds carry words war forgotten plans behind forgotten doors.
Nightmares they turn into dreams as we forget unforgettable scenes.
All the children never women never men.
All children who have never been.
They are the scars upon the land They are blood upon our hands. Nightmares they turn into dreams as we forget unforgettable scenes.
I can't wipe your tears away with some sweet words or some cliche.
What have I to give or say I am only one.

Now Is The Time

You took my life and you turned it around
there's no reason for playing that down.
I've been quiet for so many years
I kept my distance 'til you brought me here.
I've got to ask the question I'm on a limb,
I've got to have your answer Now is the time.
I've seen love break and fall to the ground.
Watched people struggle 'til time laid them down.
They'd close their eyes to what could have been
and live their lives like they'd live them again.
It seems like nothing matters but here and now
I've got to have your answer now is the time.
No turning back, no turning away.
When all is said what more can we say.
Just speak the truth, just make a start.
Now is the time to speak from your heart.

Quiet Times
03:54

End of May wheri I got the word
probably out playing when I finally heard
just out having fun I was much too young to realize what was done. Heard people say so what of it
if he was so smart that he should have quit
pushed it way too far played it way too hard he got what he asked for. Strained days,
strained days to come.
Was he just dreaming when he spoke those words?
That he'd make a change in the life of those
who couldn't believe their eyes,
just wanted peaceful lives in the quiet times.
I look around to see what's done
why did he walk when he could have run
he was much too smart, had too big a heart to ever play that part. Strained days,
strained days to come.
I don't know what we prove I win - you win -
we lose it only leads to pain.
Strained days,
strained days to come.
Live and die in the quiet times
Live and die in the quiet times to come.

Recall

I watch you come I watch you go
don't know where it stops or where it starts.
The silent march in a sea of sound
watch you sink you watch me drown.
I can see you dancing in the shadows
I hear your voice flow over meadows
thought these moments were built to last forever
I don't know why but now I can't remember.
I don't know why I can't remember them
recall - recall - recall
I don't know why I can't remember at all.
I see your face on the evening news
the coverage was great camera work smooth.
You were dressed in satin from your head to your toes.
You stood like kings facing down your foes.
