Round The Houses
Been around them once
I'm down for twice
And I am not averse to thrice
Oh no
And there's no one home
No one
I'm a curious child
On the path I walk
Found a thousand ways to flog
That dead horse
And I'll find some more
With godspeed
Or they'll find me, sure
It's all good

WOUNDED HEALER
Bared, to believe a lie
And celebrate in song
A new delusion
Gone and how it came to be
(A new illusion)
Sweet sorrow only known to me
(Been occasionally known to)
Wrong as a wretched child
(Drop the ugly on you)
Spoiled and gone hog wild
(And hammer ugly down)
A crude and ugly beast
(Time I was showing you)
Lost all I'd longed to find
(Where we're going to)
Sought desolation's cry
(Hell to holding the peace)
Drowning in poisoned tears
(I poke and prod at the beast)
Bedevilled by cursed fears
(Until he shoots out fire)
Truth so hard to find
Then along came light
And a breath of hope
Where the tears that burned
They would soothe so me
Be it my last return
I'm praying that I may learn
There's no walking from another train wreck, I know
The crime is mine alone
True is the story told
Savaged the peace, my love
For it wouldn't be enough
Falling as I only know
Gotta lose, my love
Gotta throw the fight
Better running on you
Better roll and ride
And who'd bail on you?
Gotta lose my love
Gotta throw the fight
Better running on you
Better roll and ride
Been so alive in knowing you
I'm burning inside
I'm drowning in blue
Oh I would try
If only I could
To go back in time
And honour the truth
Been so alive
In knowing you
I'm burning inside
And drowning in blue
Oh I would try if only I could
To go back in time
And honour the truth

Two Years
Most the day
Playing games of continue
In roles mighty brave
Walked the path
Known as least resistance
Got lost on the way
Alone among people
And nights they are evil
It's two years today
Marked in stone
There's a truth never moving
On walls bearing close
Through the fall
How we called for release
Yet the pleas failed us all
Try to yield
Try to negotiate
Try to deal
If someone could hold the weight
A toll for a lifetime
A harbour we must find
It's two years today

FORBIDDEN ROADS
The ends of the road
Are all I'll know
That I'm no more to journey down
Death of a scene
Of where I'd been
A tale that I've been told is over
Bury a ghost
You know I'll try
And from myself you know I'll hide
Well, good old me
Being the dreamer I'll ever be
It's clouding my eyes and there's only a fog in my line of sight
I know that I'm so far removed
That I've nothing more left to lose
But dreamers are sworn to try
Near is the time when I'm all out of road
Abandoning streets till there's nowhere to go
A flaw in the plan left me so remote
That I can't make the journey home
In our angry town I'm all out of street
And I don't know which way to turn
The way to turn
Mine to lose
I'm free to choose
I chose that all must fall away
There'll be no return
Those streets they are burned
Lost in the fire they fell around me
They fell around me

All My Weeks
All my weeks
Are sold by the year, and they're
Scored out for thee
Open roads, I'd make them mine
I would own them
Pilgrim to the new
Cheek by cheek
We danced by the fading light
And held on through darkness
Our hands they won't release
We are halted
And we are silent now
Through another morning rise
I can see it in your eyes
How they don't know where to go
They won't rest, they won't show
Pray meet with mine once more
I'll be waiting, I'll be holding on

Hadamadi
Caught in the crosshairs
Hands high and so scared
Blood rush, I walked in blind
Harbour I won't find
Stone cold dead
And I'll be falling
Falling
There'll be no last word
As I am falling
Falling
For suddenly
It's turning black
And there's no going back
Though I was bold
I took my pride
And the journey I'd know
Was a long way to go to feel alive

Oceans

Oceans
Tides recede
They ebb and they flow
Flow, yet pull
Like ropes around me
While we chose to distance our fallen selves
We found it's real
We're now and forever more
Don't go
Don't leave
For you are the only one for me
Time shows
That everything and nothing changed
Walked years
Then turned around to find
There she was
Stood and blazing those eyes
A brutal force
Paralysing on sight
Under the guise of a cool
I've reprised just for you
There lie oceans
Deep and wide
A scared old heart
Has hardened by experience
It's worn-in scars
A casualty of innocence
Bears loss
It won't be made to lose twice
It's to peace that I'll be sworn to hold tight
For dear life
Now that I'm steeled
Ready for wounding
In retreat
A beat of my choosing
I won't hear
The call of our oceans

Bedends
Blessed night
You are so damn right
There is perfect peace
In among our sheets
Up by the pillow there's a light
Did not we not ache for this time
What price will I pay
For all we shared
Just bill me now, don't wait
Take me down to the foot of my bed
Where I spin my dreams
And the joys are free

Christos Moon
Confetti on the christmas tree
Snow has fallen
And bedded down deep
Crystal light unto the night
Golden hearths glow hinter and keep
Souls well afire
And rose in the cheek
'Fore they lay down to sleep
Cold midwinter
Frost on the moon
Tidings of the season to
All and everyone, sorrowed and blue
In the midst through leaping hearts
Biding memories awaken for you
Songs of the night
Hymns of the morn
Playing the whole season through
Christmas falling
Too near and too soon
The lights of love
Do glow eternally
Hold them close
Knights of our peace
And in the long, dark shadows of winter
Light be found, comfort lie near
And strength rise with the dawn
Grow fearless
That to go on will no trial be
Pale light peeks through the trees
Silhouettes drawn on wakening fields
In the dew and early song
Tender callings are sounding for you
Peace bless the heart
And harmony dwell
Cloaked in love born anew
Life in glory
And beauteous truth

Into The Ledger
Rebel heart,
Remember when you knew me
Channelled through me
Overruled me
Where did the maverick go
How I've missed you so
There remains a measured man
Who will do
As he should
In the storm I lost my greatest ally
The one who can't lie
Or idly stand by
Now you've returned me to
The non-believer who
Runs checks and balances
On nothing and no one

I love listening to this striking collection of compositions and imagining what sort of films they were meant to accompany. It's hard for me to believe, however, that any visual component would be much more than a distraction from the singular emotive power of the music.
