On the Edge

You think I’ve gone to far this time?

Tossed to the wolves, for another feeding frenzy

If you could see what’s going on inside

You’d probably second guess me my dark secret

So tell me what is this all about?

What is this call to arms?

To test me?

Take what you need from me

Discard the rest, but I wont go peacefully

(Chorus):

I’m on the edge again

Of breaking down in a world gone crazy

I’m on the edge again

And it’s a mystery how it does not phase me

So tell me how did you think I would react?

I’m a pawn in this game and it’s far from over

This contradiction in terms makes it worse

Been pushed to the edge kicked down knocked over

Well here we stand again, and again, and again

How’s it end? is this the best of it?

You’ve made it clear my friend

That this is the end when all ties are broken

(Chorus):

I’m on the edge again

Of breaking down in a world gone crazy

I’m on the edge again

And it’s a mystery how it does not phase me

Now taking a step back

It’s not alright

What’s been left behind

Now looking down a new avenue

Hoping to see the signs

Now taking a step back

What’s not alright?

Taking it one step at a time

(What we have here is evidence that the…)

(Chorus):

I’m on the edge again

Of breaking down in a world gone crazy

I’m on the edge again

And it’s a mystery how it does not phase me

I’m on the edge again

Of breaking down in a world gone crazy

I’m on the edge again

Yeah, yeah-eah!

One more Minute

I’m going back to where I came from

So far away but not so far from home

Where I lay my head down by the sea

I’m going back to where we’d go

So far away but not so far from home

Where I’d rest, where I’d lay so peacefully

But bye the way

I want a break and want to put this stress aside

But above all things I wanna lay by the oceanside

The ocean waves, no other way, get away

Well I’m finding

Oh no my daily worries want to drift away, fine

Dyin‘ and tryin‘ just to find some sort of peace of mind

Now the time, to get away

I’m going away oh yeah

No other place to go, I’ve got to get away

Let’s get away oh, away

One more minute, the beaches San Diego

One more minute yeah

One more minute, the beaches Mexico

One more minute yeah

One more minute, we kick it back pool side

One more minute and we’re down bye the ocean side

One more minute, one more minute, one more minute

So far away and dowdy on the beach

I want to clear my head and break it in the warm sunshine

Want to relay relaxation

With the horizon straight away

And a ring around my arm from a long day

Of making angels in the sand

Picifico in my hand oh yeah

No other place to go, I’ve got to get away

Let’s get away oh, away

One more minute, the beaches San Diego

One more minute yeah

One more minute, the beaches Mexico

One more minute yeah

One more minute, we kick it back pool side

One more minute and we’re down bye the ocean side

One more minute, one more minute, one more minute

The sunshine in my eyes and the flamenco in the skies

The only way you’ll ever know, is to go, is to go

Here we go

Away

One more minute, the beaches San Diego

One more minute yeah

One more minute, the beaches Mexico

One more minute yeah

One more minute, we kick it back pool side

One more minute and we’re down bye the ocean side

One more minute, one more minute, one more minute

Shed the light all all all all day

Shed the light all day, shed the light all all all day

Shed the light all day, shed the light all all all day

Shed the light all day, shed the light all all all day

Shed the light all all all day

Shed the light all day, shed the light all all all day

Shed the light all day, shed the light all all all day

Shed the light all day

One more minute, the beaches San Diego

One more minute yeah

One more minute, the beaches Mexico

One more minute yeah

One more minute, we kick it back pool side

One more minute, and we’re down bye the ocean side

One more minute, one more minute, one more minute

Shed the light all all all day

Wake Up Call

Landing on solid ground

The time approaching where we all fall down

With each new wave another wake up call

Deep in our minds

Where did it all go wrong?

Steadfast we hold our breath wishing it all away

Waiting for a sign to bring us back some day

We hold our breath and wish it all away

And wait for the day

To watch it all just wash right away

When will it all just make sense to me?

Is this some sort of wake up call?

Something I cant ignore?

Show me a sign of life

Just give me something more

I’m told to take a number like the others

To take a number and get back into line

Falling fast sure as the sun may rise

We’re discovering all the things we hide

So much from ourselves

It’s got me wondering

What’s going on inside?

Have we been here before?

There’s something so familiar about

This place

Can you tell me what for?

Still we keep holding our breath

So could you please lend me your ears

I’ve been far gone far far too long

As we masquerade, what is this game

And this constant charade?

When did your heart cease to beat anyway?

Steadfast we hold our breath

Over Seasons

Over seasons, like so many times before

You drop drop drop it ‚til you break down the walls

Over seasons, when you come disobey

Just keep on droppin‘ ‚til the break of the day

Over seasons, like so many times before

You drop drop drop it till you break down the walls

Over seasons, when you come not obey

Just keep drop drop drop drop…

Back in 1994 there was no reason that we had wanted to play

But a vision of expression

An ability to reason with the worries in our lives

An ability we’d recognized

How many times, would composition turn into confession?

Building a foundation for our youth to grow into progression

Making our days, free-will reside, we say!

Now you know things ain’t right

And the pressure that you’re granted from this life

And forever you had wondered what’s in store

‚Til you stand up and not take it anymore!

Doubted about the things you do

And de? ant of your scattered mental institute

No second guessing when it’s already past

Denying that it wouldn’t last

Here’s to the days, here’s to the nights

Throughout the years, how many nights? Here’s to the daze that paved the way! We say!

Now you know things ain’t right

And the pressure that you’re granted from this life

And forever you had wondered what’s in store

That’s when you stand up and not take it anymore!

Like we’d done before!

The seize of day, turned on into night!

And open wide!
