FUTUREAL

(Harris/Bayley)

 

I'm running out of my time, I'm running out of breath

And now it's getting so I can't sleep at night, in the day, feel like death

 

I'm getting in far too deep, I feel them closing in

I've got to say that I'm scared, I know they'll win, even so, I'm prepared

 

Do you believe what you hear

Can you believe what you see

Do you believe what you feel

Can you believe

What is real? Futureal

What is real?

 

Whenever anyone seems to treat me like a freak

It makes me see I'm the only one who feels, that I know what is real

 

Sometimes it feels like a game of deadly hide and seek

And when you're reading this then I will be gone, maybe then you will see

 

Do you believe what you hear

Can you believe what you see

Do you believe what you feel

Can you believe

What is real? Futureal

What is real? Futureal

 

Do you believe what you hear

Can you believe what you see

Do you believe what you feel

Can you believe

What is real? Futureal

What is real? Futureal

 

What is real? Futureal

What is real? Futureal

THE ANGEL AND THE GAMBLER

(Harris)

 

Roll of the dice, take a spin of the wheel out of your hands now

So how do you feel but you're not gonna win you'd better go back again

 

Do you feel lucky or do you feel scared, take what luck brings

And be Devil may care but you're down on your luck, and what will the next day bring

 

Adrift on the ocean, afloat in a daydream

Or lost in a maze, or blind in the haze

So what does it matter, so why don't you answer

So why did you send, an angel to mend

 

Best make decisions before it's too late, take all your chances

Take hold of the reins a roll of the dice, ahead of the game again

 

Nothing to lose but so much to gain, a little danger

It goes without saying but what do you care, you're gonna go in the end

 

Gate open to Heaven, is ready and waiting

Or straight down to Hell, can go there as well

I'll suffer my craving, my soul's not worth saving

So why don't you go, just leave well alone

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 
 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

There's like a hunger that knocks on your door, you've had a taste of it

Still you want more, you've made your mistakes, won't play it the same again

 

You have been warned but still you plunge in, you play high stakes

But there's nothing to win you've only one life, and so many things to learn

 

The Angel on one side, the Devil the other

Which path do you take, decisions to make

Arrive at the crossroads, you know where you're going

And what if you wait, it may be too late

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

 

Don't you think I'm a saviour

Don't you think I could save you

Don't you think I could save your life

LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE

(Murray/Harris)

 

I feel the breeze on my face in expectance

Not very long before the storm reaches here

Off in the distance the lightning is flashing again

Feel something strong as the power draws near

 

Is it the rolling of thunder that scares you

Is it the crashing of clouds that hold fear

But all I know as I sit in a corner alone

It takes me back to my childhood again

 

And as I wait and I look for an answer

To all the things going round in my head

I ask myself could it be a disaster and when

It's maybe threatening to happen again

 

As the ominous light draws near

There's a lone dog howls in the park

All the people hurry inside

As a lightning flash lights dark

The storm is nearly here

Only God will know

 

You're sitting alone you watch

As the wind is blowing treetops

And the swaying rustling of leaves

Plenty of time to perceive

As you wait for rain to fall

Only God knows, the whole sky glows

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Only God knows, the whole sky glows

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

 

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

THE CLANSMAN

(Harris)

 

Walk alone in the hills with the wind in your face

It feels good to be proud and be free and a race

That is part of a clan and to live on highlands

And the air that you breathe so pure and so clean

 

When alone on the hills with the wind in your hair

With a longing to feel just to be free

 

Is it right to believe in the need to be free

It's a time when you die and without asking why

Can't you see what they do they are grinding us down

They are taking our land that belongs to the clans

 

Not alone with a dream just a want to be free

With a need to belong I am a clansman

 

Freedom

Freedom

Freedom

Freedom

 

It's a time wrought with fear It's a land wrought with change

Ancestors could hear what is happening now

They would turn in their graves they would all be ashamed

That the land of the free has been written in chains

 

And I know what I want when the timing is right

The I'll take what is mine I am the clansman

 

And I swear to defend and we'll fight to the end

And I swear that I'll never be taken alive

And I know that we'll stand and we'll fight for our land

And I swear that my bairns will be born free

 

And I know what I want when the timing is right

Then I'll take what I want I am the clansman

 

Freedom

Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
 

No, no we can't let them take anymore

No we can't let them take anymore

We're the land of the free

 

No, no we can't let them take anymore

No we can't let them take anymore

We're the land of the free

 

No, no we can't let them take anymore

No we can't let them take anymore

No we can't let them take anymore

We're the land of the free

 

Freedom

Freedom

Freedom
Freedom
 

It is right to believe in the need to be free

It's a time when you die and without asking why

Can't you see what they do they are grinding us down

They are taking our land that belongs to the clans

 

Not alone with a dream just a want to be free

With a need to belong I am a clansman

 

And I know what I want when the timing is right

Then I'll take what is mine I am the clansman

 

Freedom

Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
 

And I know what I want when the timing is right

The I'll take what is mine I am the clansman

WHEN TWO WORLDS COLLIDE

(Murray/Bayley/Harris)

 

My telescope looks out into the stars tonight

A little speck of light seems twice the size tonight

The calculations are so fine, can it be growing all the time?

 

Now I can't believe it's true and I don't know what to do

For the hundredth time I check the declination

 

Now the fear starts to grow

Even my computer shows

There are no errors in the calculations

 

Now it's happened take no other view

Collision course you must believe it's true

Now there's nothing left that we can do

 

When two worlds collide

The anger and the pain of all those who remain

Two worlds collide

Who will be left alive no place to hide

 

When two worlds collide

The anger, the pain of those who remain

When two worlds collide

When two worlds collide

So who will survive, there's no place to hide

When two worlds collide

 

Now it's happened take no other view

Collision course you must believe it's true

Now there's nothing left that we can do

 

When two worlds collide

The anger and the pain of all those who remain

Two worlds collide

Who will be left alive, no place to hide

 

When two worlds collide

The anger, the pain of those who remain

When two worlds collide

When two worlds collide

So who will survive, there's no place to hide

When two worlds collide

 

When two worlds collide

The anger, the pain of those who remain

When two worlds collide

When two worlds collide

So who will survive, there's no place to hide

When two worlds collide

 

When two worlds collide

The anger, the pain

When two worlds collide

When two worlds collide

THE EDUCATED FOOL

(Harris)

 

I'm an educated fool so I don't know what it is I'm supposed to do

About this awkward situation that's been forced down right upon me

 

As I'm walking down into, on my own into the valley of life

Got a lifetime of experience yeah I've got so much to give

 

Open the page at chapter one could this just be that life's just begun

Forever within your darker thoughts reflecting on everything you've been taught

 

Never felt this way before, seems that somebody's just opened the door

To the book of life...or is it death, is there ever any way out

 

Someone's looking down on me to the very inner core of my soul

They won't tell me what they see but I really want to know

 

I want to live my life on my own I want to lift the unturned stone

I want to walk right into the fire I want to live out all my desires

 

I want to go and see the fire burn I want to see and feel my world turn

I want to know what more there's to learn I want to pass the point of no return

 

Do you really wanna be just another one statistic or feel

That you really should aspire that you really do deserve more

 

Do you ever really feel that you have so much potential inside

What you really have to give could be realised so much more

 

I want to live my life on my own I want to lift the unturned stone

I want to walk right into the fire I want to live out all my desires

 

I want to go and see the fire burn I want to see and feel my world turn

I want to know what more there's to learn I want to pass the point of no return

 

Time will flow

And I will follow

Time will go

But I will follow

 

Time will flow

And I will follow

Time will go

But I will follow

 

I want to feel what life's like respond I want to meet my father beyond

I want to walk right into the light I want to feel no fear but danger

 

I want to live my life on my own I want to lift the unturned stone

I want to walk right into the fire I want to live out all my desires

 

Time will flow

And I will follow

Time will go

But I will follow

 

Time will flow

And I will follow

Time will go

But I will follow

 

Time will flow

And I will follow

Time will go

But I will follow

 

I'm an educated fool...

DON'T LOOK TO THE EYES OF A STRANGER

(Harris)

 

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

Don't look through the eyes of a fool

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

Somebody's watching when the light goes down

 

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

Don't look through the eyes of a fool

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

Somebody's watching when the night comes down

 

Feel someone's watching you, you gotta get away

Is it the first time you've ever felt this scared

 

Feel the adrenalin pump, your heart begins to race

Begin to run now the sweat runs down your face

 

Don't know which way to turn, you'd better hide yourself

He's getting close now you'd better improvise

 

Just hope you never reach the point of no return

Could be the last time you see the light of day

 

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

Don't look through the eyes of a fool

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

Somebody's watching when the night comes down

COMO ESTAIS AMIGOS

(Gers/Bayley)

 

Como Esta Amigo

For the death of those we don't know

Shall we kneel and say a prayer

They will never know we care

Shall we keep the fires burning

Shall we keep the flames alight

Shall we try to remember

What is wrong and what is right

 

No more tears, no more tears

If we live for a hundred years

Amigos no more tears

 

If we do forget them and

The sacrifice they made

Will the wickedness and

Sadness come to visit us again

Shall we dance the dance in sunlight

Shall we drink the wine of peace

Shall our tears be of joy

Shall we keep at bay the beast

 

No more tears, no more tears

If we live for a hundred years

Amigos no more tears

 

Inside the scream is silent

Inside it must remain

No victory, and no vanquished

Only horror only pain

 

No more tears, no more tears

If we live for a hundred years

Amigos no more tears

 

No more tears, no more tears

If we live for a hundred years

Amigos no more tears
