I can hear the voice… In a dream you see it Shining bright as the sun And you’re blinded by your vision Reaching out to touch it Yet it’s so far away Soon the night is over Another day is on the way Can you hear it? Voices calling Lost spirit Soul’s longing Can you hear it? Voices calling Lost spirit Soul’s longing Soon the brightness fades And even dreams are too far Then your life becomes a prison All the bars are solid Made by your own hands Then you’re just a voice With silent demands I can hear your Voices Calling Lost Spirit Soul’s longing ---

Under the pale moon For so many years I’ve wondered who you are How can a person like you bring me joy Under the pale moon Where I see a lot of stars Is enough, enough I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes I saw the sign Life is demanding without understanding I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes I saw the sign No one’s gonna drag you up to get into the light where you belong But where do you belong Oh, oh, oh, oh. ---

Just remember that you’re standing on a planet that’s evolving And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour, That’s orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it’s reckoned, A sun that is the source of all our power. The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see Are moving at a million miles a day In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour, Of the galaxy we call the ‘Milky Way’. Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars. It’s a hundred thousand light years side to side. It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick, But out by us, it’s just three thousand light years wide. We’re thirty thousand light years from galactic central point. We go 'round every two hundred million years, And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions In this amazing and expanding universe. ---

We didn’t know that it would blow up With such might The stars are even brighter Contrasted by the night Sent out the shock waves Filled up the outer space Even the ghost came To the late, late, late show Watch us play Everything went tossing Everyone was talking Making up their faces Wonder what we look like naked? Ah the irresistible force met the immovable object Oh! Ah the irresistible force met the immovable object Banging and banging And banging and banging And banging Together We’ve become a big business A galaxy merger The two of us a big bang God is a real man God is a dad God is a dad ---

This trail is obsidian, the grip of winter uncoiled A lover would follow me, cast down and sworn to the dark Take the road where devils speak: “God is dead…God is dead” The wealth of darkness inside you, telling you now Your senses corrupted, controlling a poisonous will Take the road where devils speak: “God is dead…God is dead” ---

Leaving all the world to play they disappear And the leaves have gathered dust to run like deer Tearing pieces from our lives to feed the dawn Mist surrounds the seagulls christened by the storm Music, all I hear is music - guaranteed to please And I look for something else Rain drops pouring down the rooftops - flowing in the drains As the people run their lives As their lives are run by time ---

This old man I’ve talked about Broke his own heart, Poured it in the ground. Big red tree grew up and out, Throw up it’s leaves, Spins round and round. I know all this and more. So take your hat off When you’re talking to me And be there when I feed the tree. This little squirrel I used to be Slammed her bike down the stairs. They put silver where her teeth had been. Baby silvertooth,she grins and grins. I know all this and more. So take your hat off boy When you’re talking to me And be there when I feed the tree. ---

All of my songs can only be composed of the greatest of pains Every single verse can only be born of the greatest of wishes I wish I had one more night to live Oh, sweet Christabel. Share with me your poem. For I know now, I’m a puppet on this silent stage show. I’m but a poet who failed his best play. A Dead Boy, who failed to write an ending To each of his poems. ---
