CUT FROM THE STARS
Starlight gaze out
Walkabout
International dark sky park

Desert. twilight
Second sight
International dark sky park

Relate reach out
Fathom what life is all about
Each atom cut from the stars

When I'm in need of some perspective
I find my place in the jewelled collective
Daylight glare blinding me
Only after dark may I clearly see

Look up breathe out
Walkabout
International dark sky park
I wanna be in zero G
International dark sky park

Relate reach out
Fathom what life is all about
Each atom cut from the stars

In the light of pure perfection
Troublеs are so very small
Planetary sanctuary
I touch, I can rеflect it all
Envision
Envision
Ignite the spark
Vision in vision
We have transmission after dark

Andromeda
Dog Star splendor
Horizon lightening, distant thunder
A canvas for creation theory
Now the hunter's in the southern sky

Have you really travelled so many light years to find us
So confused and so careless
In desperate need of awareness
Our pale blue dot
Dangling in the crossfires
Unravelling
(Reeling and reeling)
But what of the healing

In the light of pure perfection
Troubles are so very small
Planetary sanctuary
We touch, retrace
Embrace it all
Envision
Envision
Ignite the spark
Vision in vision
Point of ignition
Envision
Envision
Ignite the spark
Vision in vision
Vision our mission
We have transmission after, after dark
After dark

ALL CONNECTED
Always true pathways
Open doorways
Right of ways for everyone
Tell me how can we break down walls
Any other way

Always true pathways
Upon us equal shines the sun
All for the tragic
Karmachromatic
Static to obscure the very key of life
Our global symphony
Karmachromatic
It’s only static
The key defines the scale we climb
To at last perceive we are
We are contrast in harmony

You're never out of reach
You're never out of mind
So free your mind
This is your time

For thosе who wish to seek
Forgotten and left behind
Wе are connected
Respect it, the Collective
Like satellites ...
(There’s nowhere you can run)
... passing in ...
(There’s nowhere you can hide)
... the timeless night
(Connecting all our lives)

You're never out of reach
You're never out of mind
Free your mind
This is your time
Know together we stand strong

Why take it all to heart
Then for a rain drop you fall apart
Take the ups and downs in stride
Often times just let things ride

There's nowhere you can run
There's nowhere you can hide
We're all connecting
Connecting all our lives
You're never out of reach
You're never out of mind
We're all connecting
Connecting
Connecting all our lives

You're never out of reach
You're never out of mind
And those you wish to seek
Are those you will find
There's nowhere left to run
So many words being thrown round and round

Always true pathways
Open doorways
Right of ways for everyone
Tell me how can we break down walls
Any other way

Always true pathways
Upon us equal shines the sun
All for the tragic
Karmachromatic
Static to obscure the very key of life
Our global symphony
Karmachromatic
It’s only static
The key defines the scale we climb
To at last perceive we are
We are contrast in harmony

Contrast in harmony

LUMINOSITY
Dream the night came calling from forest mist
The light in Man leaves none to resist
Voiced the thunder to hearts of brotherhood
Perceive the arc Man's rising
Gone the dark and selfish way
Like the stars we are luminous

I hear the wind carry upon its breast
The woes of many each heart's unrest
Voiced the thunder to all
A circle of fire
The arc within Man's rising
No hardship could mar
With soul unscarred we are luminous

We are as the stars
Luminous
We all are stardust
If ever there was a sun to dream upon we are as one
We're luminous
Beings luminous
Bright lighthouses on the sea
The ocean of humanity
Gazing up wondering if on some distant world
A lonely soul is gazing back
Longing for contact
To stand face-to-face
Someday not so far away

Come to light dream caller up from the mist
The powers that be lowered their fists
Voiced the thunder to all
A circle of fire
Perceive the arc Man's rising
Passed greed and the power play
Like the stars we are luminous

We are as the stars luminous
We all are stardust
If ever there was a sun to dream upon we are as one
We're luminous
Beings luminous
Bright lighthouses on the sea
The ocean of humanity
Gazing up wondering if on some distant world
A lonely soul is gazing back
Longing for contact
To stand face-to-face
Someday not so far away

Why on earth can't we, lest we become a dying race
Bring to light
Stand in love face-to-face
Someday not so far away
Surely one day

LIVING OUT THEIR DREAM
Spinning your yarn and push each word
The race is on to be absurd
Around a myth everything turns
So all the words go unheard
Romeo loves Juliet so much
It's Hollywood in double Dutch
Married at the steak and seafood place
They've got anger written on their face

Living out their dream
Covered in ice cream
Their convictions don't convince me
Just a mouthful of glee
Don't convince me
Just a mouthful of glee

Things you have don't make you happy
Things that you want don't come your way
Things that you've lost are gone forever
Whilе you're watching the weathеr
Stories we hear tear us apart
What we believe is happening
Words are distorted, you'd never think
Pushing them to the very brink

Living out their dream
Covered in ice cream
Their convictions don't convince me
Just a mouthful of glee

The oval blots of scarlet foam
Illuminate the silver dome
We're no longer descending
Now there's no time for a happy ending

MIRROR TO THE SKY
Dreams of a sky without fire
Dreams of a sky without fire
An occurrence of chance
This fleeting existence
Are we not leaves in a storm
Here tossed and there blown

Dreams of a sky without fire
Dreams of a sky without fire

You are my mirror to the sky
You are my mirror to the sky
You're my mirror to the sky
You're my mirror to the sky
Still I dream of a sky without fire

Still I dream of a sky without fire falling
Still I dream of a sky without fire

What the shadow minds behind the third eye
Spiеs in vain define
The еssence they fail to posses and so resist all
They cannot control
Their forces then despise the very Soul
And Its inseparable ties
To the limitless sacred skies

Voices stir from future Earth
Tikkun olam
Spiritus mundi
Affirm the principal of unity

After all
We are star fall

Pause and reflect the cause and effect
With mindful mind
Sail timeless time
Strange worlds unknown
Where all man soon must go

CIRCLES OF TIME
Time circles
Circles of time
Time circles
Circles of time

Win or lose
That clock on the wall
Like the shadow of a noose
Is a ticking time bomb
Orchestrating and dictating our every move

Not lost on me
How bittersweet the mockery of irony
The sooner I go
The sooner to you I'll arrive at your door
To be by your loving side

I'm caught in a circle of time
Stuck on a spinning wheel of our few hellos and many goodbyes
I'm caught in an endless time circle
Spinning out of mind
Wishing somehow I could get off of this ride

Across the polar night
Thе blue twilight
Time circles
Timе circles

Far and away
I'm off to ride the sun's bending rays
And I'm lost to your sight
On a never-ending flight
Only nearer to one more yesterday

I'm caught in a circle of time
Stuck on a spinning wheel of our few hellos and many goodbyes
I'm caught in an endless time circle
Spinning out of mind
Wishing somehow I could get off of this ride

Across the polar night
The blue twilight
As we fly right through
The midnight sun
As we head into
The midnight sun
The lonely midnight sun

Across the polar night
The blue twilight
As we fly right through
The midnight sun
As we head into
The lonely midnight
The lonely midnight sun
Midnight sun
Midnight sun
Time circles
Circles of time
Ring upon ring, expanding
Time circles
Circles of time
Time circles
Circles of time
Ring upon ring, expanding
Time circles
Circles of time

UNKNOWN PLACE
Reasons to smile, after a while in our own world
Hidden from things, somewhere within no one's disturbed
Move things aside, innocent age trapped in a cage

Each step taken seems to retrace
Ancestor's footsteps to this unknown place

Bring me that sacred song in the dawn
We can belong in our own unknown world

Confined by a thought (confined by a thought),
It dims to a glow (it dims to a glow)
It falls well below
Needing the joy that nothingness brings needing that joy
Pure light, pure self feeding your health when nothingness gives

Each step taken seems to rеtrace
Ancestor's footsteps to this unknown placе

I live these four walls, beneath the ceiling and floor
I think the plants and the flowers through an open door
Not ever knowing what's written in stone
Take only what is really your own

Happiness tolling bells resounds
Towards a place where peace gently abounds

ONE SECOND IS ENOUGH
With the ins and outs
And the whereabouts
In-between the scenes
Playing out our dreams
That we think occurred

Take it stage-by-stage
Turning page-by-page
From the open space
There's a warm embrace
Now we've come of age

One second is enough
In a blink of an eye
Happiness comes and goes
But we don't know why

In the afterglow
There's a lot we know
How our lives unfold
In what we behold
Inside ourselves

The glory days were beautiful
So young at heart, did energize
Move on from there to be so strong
Always belong

One second is enough
In a blink of an eye
Happiness comes and goes
But we don't know why

One second is enough
One second
One second
One second is enough

MAGIC POTION
On another night we sung our song
Such simple pleasures they can last so long
We stood our ground on the nights return
In the knowledge of what it is we learn

It's a good day to be had by all

As we're drifting in slow motion
All consumed by the notion
That love is the magic potion

It's the way of things
Conclusions drawn
Justice founded on
Though it's worn and torn
The waves aren't calm
When the words alarm

It's a good day to be had by all
It's a good day to be had by all

As we're drifting in slow motion
All consumed by the notion
That love is the magic potion
