Hear from me 05:04
Stay out of sight Wonder if I should try To reach out, touch the sky Need to fly I fought so hard for a cause that's not mine Now I feel maybe I wasted time I'll let the days pass by I'll stare into the sky Just let the storm clouds grow I think I'll skip the show Don't expect to hear from me Through the clouds I see love shine I just need a bit more time Don't expect to hear from me From the moment that you had your eyes on me I knew you would try to put a spell on me From the get-go was not granted I could give the things you wanted I'm fed up with lame excuses don't know what for I could use this You must be misunderstanding, this is not how things are ending I will take this in my own hands we will see then where the ball lands I'll watch the sun go round I think I'll stand my ground This ship is going down But I won't be around Don't expect to hear from me Through the clouds I see love shine I just need a bit more time Don't expect to hear from me

Shelter 05:35
Cold winter morning In 1983 Dream of the future The people we could be Or maybe mum and dad Let us watch tv Sun slowly rising World is standing still Music and laughter Keep the chill at bay Future tribulations Are a million miles away Inviting friends for tea, Singing songs from the home country In the language we never learned While the fire slowly burned Rain pouring down In 1984 Searching for shelter Beside the fancy store Waiting for the train To the other side of town Man with the stony face Mutters something of disgrace To the woman with the tray Who wishes us a good day While removing the marquee That kept the rain away And the words you said to me Still ringing in my head Were as clear as they could be learnt by heart what you had said Be careful what you say Or which bridges you choose to burn Some things aren't what they seem Some chances might not return

Interim 04:56
Don't know how we got here And will it stay this way Got to keep on moving every day Eyes are wide and open In the light of day Prepared for anything that comes or way And what am I supposed to see here? Where am I supposed to be? Is this real or just imaginary? Or maybe somewhere in-between? Halfway through the journey Some questions occured to me Like how did I get here and Is this where I'm ment to be? Is this a sign of the times Or just my mind playing tricks on me Am I wrong or right or somewhere in between? And what am I supposed to see here? Where am I supposed to be? Is this real or just imaginary? Or maybe somewhere in between?

Marooned 03:50
endless nights and long summer days watching the clouds fly in the endless blue sky year after year day after day time goes by slowly leaves in the wind mist in the trees summer moved on river runs slow moving the shores time goes by slowly carried away wave after wave washed up on the sand sun sinking slow on the horizon holding your hand time goes by slowly

I still hear from far away your voice, calling me An echo of fallen times To disappear Like lines in the sand, or leaves on a tree If we could talk we could reveal And not try to hide The things we conceal If we could share In the language that we never learned The stories we never told Could we sleep safe and sound?

Inside 06:03
I've watched the outside for so long Don't want to hear what's going on And all the time we have been here we slowly got consumed by fear Watch the news, listen what the experts say Try to keep it inside for another day Waiting for this story to come to an end Reaching for the phone to call up a friend, cause This has been a long and crazy year (let's stay inside) All this time we have been staying here, I don't feel right It seems the world is closing in I can't remember where I've been Waiting as another day goes by Days and weeks and months just seem to fly Watch the news, listen what the experts say Try to keep it inside for another day Waiting for this story to come to an end Reaching for the phone to call up a friend, cause This has been a long and crazy year (let's stay inside) All this time we have been staying here, I don't feel right

"The Census report, like most such surveys, had cost an awful lot of money and didn’t tell anybody anything they didn’t already know – except that every single person in the Galaxy had 2.4 legs and owned a hyena." - Douglas Adams
Also, this contains some songs I made for my YouTube channel.
