The Higher You Climb

There is no comeback from the big divide
Maybe there's a future to be found waiting on the other side
If it's illusion, then what is real?
In life's confusion, take what you can
Fight it till you reach the goal.

And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.

Seems all directions lead to one place
There are no signposts guiding me
It takes a long time to see

And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.

The age of reason has come and gone
The changing seasons move on and on until you reach the goal

And the higher you climb you can fall
But never look down
And the faster you run, it's a crawl
To the end of the line.

Fight Against the Tide

When the doubts you have begin to show
When the winds of change begin to blow your dream away
As the winter cold can touch the bone
And like a crowd, voices in your mind
But as the thunder dies, you're standing on your own
Even in your darkest night
When the shadows hide the guiding light that leads the way alone
And heaven seems to turn it's head
Sometimes, to break away the ties
You have to find the strength to carry on

Fight against the tide
To cut the hardest stone
Fight against the tide
The blood begins to flow
Hold on, through the storm could take your life
Be strong and you will survive

You won't give in
Even though the walls around you fall
No don't give in
Still the flames alive
'Till the end of time
And so you fight against the tide
When the doubts you have begin to show
When the winds of change begin to blow your dream away
When the fire has left your soul
Look straight ahead
In the face of fear
Take on the world and all it has to give

Fight against the tide
To cut the hardest stone
Fight against the tide
The blood begins to flow
Hold on, through the storm could take your life
Be strong and you will survive

Dusty Road

I walk the line, look straight ahead
A second chance, one slip and it's gone
Though the bird has flown, the sands of time stand still
Scars that never heal, wounds you always feel

Keep on walking that dusty road, blinded by the flame
Keep on walking that dusty road, never giving in

A single light, you hold your breath
Your heart beats fast, a skin that burns
Maybe the tide has turned, one goal you know is near
And wish of a thousand nights, voices you always hear

So keep on walking that dusty road, blinded by the flame
Keep on walking that dusty road, never giving in

Can't Tell These Walls

You said time would heal all the scars inside,
But hurt seems to grow not die
No matter how I try
I regret the things that I've said
Can't forget the words you misread that night
I know I was unkind
Sitting here all alone
How I wish I could change the past
Feelings hidden, unshown
Behind the mask

Can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop the world from turning
Can't take the cold, the hurting
Can't tell these walls I'm missing you

Fallen down, can I pick myself up from the ground?
Look at the face of this clown
I've tried to hide the tears
Sitting here all alone
How I wish I could change the past
Is there ever a chance?
Still the river flows

Can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop the world from turning
Can't take the cold, the hurting
Can't tell these walls I'm missing you

Moon under the Water

In the movement of the waves
Feel the rushing of the wind
You're in everything I see

Like a visionaries dream
Preaching to the silence
It's waiting for me

Like a moon under the water
There's a sky under the sea
This world is like an ocean
An it's drowning me
There's a moon under the water

Throw a stone into the pool
See the ripples run forever
And, time, for longer still

See the moon under the water
And the sky under the sea
This world is like an ocean
An it's drowning me

There's a moon under the water
There's a sky under the sea

Tears

Tears in my eyes, tears in my eyes
Feeling like there's nothing left to say
Maybe I should wait for another day
One more day

Tried to find myself, but now you're gone
I had to find the strength to carry on
Carry on

Tears in my eyes
How they fall like rain to the floor
Where do you go when the summer's gone?
Walking away is the same as closing the door
Can you look at the sky when the sun don't shine?

Look in my eyes
You can see my dreams on the floor
Where do I go now the summer is gone?
Run through the field like a child who's closing the door
You're feeling the wind now the sun don't shine

Losing you would always be my fear
Never knowing if you'd still be here
Still be here

Remembering the words you said to me
Saying that you had to set me free
Set me free

Right to Cry

He kept it all inside - alive and screaming
Tears were not his style, his pride was leading

I watched the light dancing on the sea
As it turned to grey
Oh, how I wish that the tide would soon return
Someday, someday

I've a right to cry
That's not giving in
Scars from you and I, scars we kept within
There's a right to cry, it's not giving up
With my right to cry, now I've had enough

It's hard to break the bones of life, of living
A side you'll never show, let go, don't need it

Hold on, hold on, hold on
I can see in your eyes and I know how you're going to feel

I watched the light dancing on the sea
As it turned to grey
Oh, how I wish that the tide would soon return
Someday, someday

I've a right to cry
That's not giving in
Scars from you and I, scars we kept within
There's a right to cry, it's not giving up
With my right to cry, now I've had enough

We Fall Apart

Was a dark day through old eyes again
As the flames rise to lick blue wounds again
See the chrome claw kiss the black sky into again
Hear the pin fall like a steel fist on stone again

When we were young, we were strong
We'd belong, close at heart
So in time, as the powers dies
We must belong, till we fall
We fall apart

In the neon dawn we will rise again
From the thin shell deep inside the wall

When we were young, we were strong
We'd belong, close at heart
So in time, as the powers dies
We must belong, till we fall
We fall apart

When we were young, we were strong
We'd belong, close at heart
So in time, as the powers dies
We must belong, till we fall
We fall apart

That Season

I told her, I'd hold her
All through that first cold winter
Defend her, protect her
From our darkest demons

Then spring came, our world changed
We found a different corner
Still heading, still searching
For what we had that season

I thought I was so strong, a man on a blue mountain
The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then
See them
Hear them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No whiter, no wiser
And all we hear is thunder

I thought I was so strong, a father on a mountain
The sword in my hand, but my thoughts in the clouds then
See them
Hear them

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

I would never change another day
If that season was the one to stay
I swear I'd never change another day

Ten years now, I've waited
For that coldest winter
No wiser, no whiter
Oh how I miss that season

Someday [live 1992]

Don't want to live in another world
Don't want to dream of another girl
That's the way it was meant to be

I couldn't sleep through the lonely night
I just cried till the morning
It's not the way it was meant to be

Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love my shine on you
Someday you may find the one

You didn't leave me, you ran away
Couldn't face what you had to say
It's not the way it was meant to be

Now you can live in your other world
Me, i've found me another girl
And that's the way it was meant to be

Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love my shine on you
Someday you may find the one

When I dream, I dream of one world
But I know there's no such place
If I could ever find that one girl
In my world, in my world

Someday you may find somebody else
Someday love my shine on you
Someday you may find the one
