Lyrics

1. THE SONG REMAINS

Manitou, Great Spirit, Awaits A Final Plea
Our Dreams Crystal-Clear, Like The Waters
Run Down Through The Rocks To The Windbeaten Sea
Believin' On The Mountain Of Our Fathers

Well I Survived The Fight
Waiting For A Clear Blue Sky

Pullin' Back Before The Hour, Holding On
While The Song Remains The Same
Hear Me Now Before It Sours, Tell Me Why,
Why The Song Remains The Same

Only A Fool Breaks The Silence And Frightens The Bear
The Plains Mountains And Rivers At Dawn
A Trust That's Been Broken Won't Mend Without Fear
The Call Of The Wild, The Fight Is On

Well I Survived The Fight
Waiting For A Clear Blue Sky

Pullin' Back Before The Hour, Holding On
While The Song Remains The Same
Hear Me Now Before It Sours, Tell Me Why,
Why The Song Remains The Same


2. BEST OF TIMES

It Was The Best Of Times And The Worst Of Times,
That We Ever Knew
I Was Standing By The Stream Holding Back The Dream,
All Because Of You
Well, I Was Only Old Enough To Walk Your
Condencending Way, A Winner Of The Memories Inside Of Me,
But What About The Price We Payed?
Payed To Fly, Every Hour, Every Month, Every Day

Cause I'm In Power And It Feels Devine
Lets Set The World On Fire, Make It The Best Of Times

Today I Found The Keys To My Memories
Of The Times With You
Opened Up The Tiny Room To Avoid The Doom
Of The Things We Do
Well, Living Is A Travesty, And To Walk On By
Is Hard For Me
I Know You Only Love The Game,
So You Wish To Play
But What About The Price We Payed?
Payed To Fly, Every Hour, Every Month, Every Day

Cause I'm In Power And It Feels Devine
Lets Set The World On Fire, And I'll Make You Mine
But If You Walk Out On Me,
My Life Would Be A Sorrowful Sight To See
But If My Heart's In Power, It's The Best Of Times


3. TIME BOMB

Back To Monkey Business Girl, Is What We've Gotta Do
Bring Back Love Lets Mix It Up
We Don't Need To Know What's True Enough To Circumcise
True Enough To Be Baptized
True Enough For The "Chosen" But Not For All

Paradise Is A Feeling Within

Big Time Bomb Revolution
The Separation Era Has Been Here Much To Long
Big Time Bomb Revolution

Yes I'm A Believing Man, Let's Just Talk About Praying
Praying Left To Right, Right Or Wrong To My Sweet Lord
Well My Eyes Will Tell You How I Feel
If God's Like That There Is No Deal
He Won't Sentence Us Into The Fire

Paradise Is A Feeling Within

Big Time Bomb Revolution
Together We Might Stand,– Divided We Fall
Big Time Bomb Revolution

Muhammad, Allah, Hare Hare Krsna


4. GHOST IN TOWN

Well Enough Is Enough, There's Enough In This Part Of Town
Koo Ka Choo, Where Can You Stay In Hiding And Not Be Found
Will It Make A Significant Difference If All Of The Word Gets Out?
Just Don't Make Up A World Of Excuses To Scream And Shout

Even Now
Show Them What You Found
Rules Are Out
Spread The Wicked Word Around
So Everybody'll Know

There's A Ghost In Town In The Back Of Me
Is Anybody Worried 'bout The Town?
There Are Lawyers And Preachers And Scum, Well That Figures
Run And Get Your Gun And Shoot Them Down
There's A Ghost In Town Come On Down And See
Is Anybody Worried 'bout The Town?
There Are Monsters And Demons And Terrible Screaming
Run And Get Your Gun And Shoot Them Down

Get In Line, Move On Down, Take A Number And Stay A While
Look Up Here, Over There, Mister B-Square Come On And Smile
Do You Know That Behind Simple Curtains The Kingdom Of Fear Comes Alive?
Just Don't Make Up A World Of Excuses, Don't Even Try

Even Now
Show Them What You Found
Rules Are Out
Spread The Wicked Word Around
So Everybody'll Know

There's A Ghost In Town In The Back Of Me
Is Anybody Worried 'bout The Town?
There Are Lawyers And Preachers And Scum, Well That Figures
Run And Get Your Gun And Shoot Them Down
There's A Ghost In Town Come On Down And See
Is Anybody Worried 'bout The Town?
There Are Monsters And Demons And Terrible Screaming
Run And Get Your Gun And Shoot Them Down


5. YESTERDAY'S GONE

Tying A Blindfold Over My Eyes,
Showing Me Where To Go
Leaving Me Restless All Through The Night,
Heaven Will Surely Know
All Of The Good Things That Happened To Me,
Why Did You Come My Way?
Even The Wretched Has A Clear Right To Say,
My Turn Has Come Today

But It Was Never That Easy
The Road We've Chosen Was Such A Pain To Walk On,
Along The Way We Became Good Friends, Again

And We Survived
Walking Down This Trail Of Blood
Weeding Out The Worst Of Times
Yesterday's Gone

Living With Anger, Holding It Down
Fighting It Day By Day
Infinite Wisdom Bleed When You Say
"Leave It And Walk Away"
‘cause All Of The Bad Things That Happened To Me
Might Even Be My Fault
And Turning Around Now My Body Would Freeze
Becomin' A Pillar Of Salt

I Never Said It Was Easy
The Road We've Chosen Was Such A Pain To Walk On,
Along The Way We Became Good Friends, Again

And We Survived
Walking Down This Trail Of Blood
Weeding Out The Worst Of Times
Yesterday's Gone


6. FOUR SEASONS

A Brother Made His Way Alone In The Night
He Was Possessed By The Thoughts In His Head
He Never Knew That A Blind Mans Sight,
Could See The Face Of Dead
With Eyes Wide Open On The Edge Of The Rail
He Heard A Shot-Gun By The Way Of The Tracks
Four Reasons, Bang, Bang, Another Two,
Bit The Dust On The Way Of That Land

Good Lord Bring Them Back Again
Back To Life Again
Our Motherland Would Cry Out I Know
With Every Blooddrop Feel Her Pain

One Man, One Vote, One Reason
Well If It's Not We Call It A Treason
I Hope You Understand The Reasons Why

Time Keeps Moving But No Change Is At Hand
Try To Sleep With A Hunger Inside
Promise The Truth, That Is No Longer A Fact,
We've Been Taken For A Ride
My Mind Is Weak But All Is Well With My Soul
I Sing And Shout Now Inspite Of It All
And No Reason Can Imprison My Heart
I See The Light Beyond The Wall


7. MBALOUMOUNA

(Instrumental)


8. THE CHANCE

Stuck In The Middle, Just You And Me,
We're Holding On Tight To This Fantasy
Now That We're Smoking The Wickedest Of Weeds,
We Know That It's Mad To Be Gone
Show Me A Building Covered With Fire,
I'll Show You Moments Of Lust And Desire
Bring Me A Woman Who's Driving Me Wild,
Something To Turn Me On

To Be There What A Sight
Resist Without A Fight

The Chance We've All Been Waiting For Is Upside Down
Trust Me, We'll Never Be The Same
So Raise The Final Curtain And Show Me What You've Found
Trust Me, We'll Never Be The Same

Throwing The Dice Away From Your Heart,
This Is A Chance To A Powerful Start
Waiting For Something Wild To Begin,
Your Crying Won't Help At All
Surely The Mind Will Know When We Meet,
As Sure As A Cat Will Land On Its Feet
We're Riding The Same Ol' Trail You And Me,
Why Don't We Have A Ball

I've Waited For So Long
Come Back And Turn Me On

The Chance We've All Been Waiting For,
Is On It's Feet Again


9. FREE YOUR MIND

Uneducated Lovers, Always Repetitious, Quite A Show
Abiding By The Rules Of Hollow,
Never Be Mistaken Unless Everybody Knows
Why Does Everything I See,
About You Always Bother Me, I'm Gagin' Now
It's A Law That Never Sleep,
The Bad You've Done Is Yours To Keep
But Always, Come What May,
Call Another Day

You've Been Had, Enticed And Cheated
Why Do Worry?, Woman Listen,
Everything's About The Very Way We're Living And
Why We Should Abide The Enemy Inside

Free Your Mind,
We Are The Children Ascending With Power
You And I,
Reverse The Sun And The Moon In One Hour

Burnin' Hate And Bitter Sweetness,
By And By, Was Kneaded In Your Dough
But Now The Men That You've Mistreated
Bring You Back And Make You Eat It,
Everybody Knows

They've Been Had, Enticed And Cheated
You Should Worry, Woman Listen,
Everything's About The Very Way You're Living
And If You Should Abide, The Enemy Inside

Free Your Mind,
We Are The Children Ascending With Power
You And I,
Reverse The Sun And The Moon In One Hour


10. AFTER THE FALL

Where The Ocean Meet The Leaded Sky
In A Dream When I Dream Of You
A World Of Trouble Floods The Earth With Pain
Enough To Brake My Heart In Two

Don't Worry My Friend
Don't Worry, The Love That Lasted Then Will Protect Us Now
Don't Worry My Friend
Oh, Girl I Wish Someone Would Show Me How,
Moving Ahead I'm Sure That We Can Find

Power To Love Each Other After The Fall
Never Say Never, When Your Heart Is Crying
Power To Love Each Other After The Fall
You And Me Can Spend Our Days,
Believing Our Wish Upon A Star

Don't Wanna Waste Your Time, If You Feel That Without Me On Your Own,
All Alone, You Will Do Much Better
Just Wanna Reach Your Mind And Tell You,
Believing That We'd Stay Together

Don't Worry My Friend
Don't Worry, Our Love's Enough For Me, Enough For You
Don't Worry My Friend
Girl Lets Hope The Moon Will Bless Us Two
Moving Up Close I'm Sure Will See Us Through

Power To Love Each Other…(You And Me Can Spend Our Days,
Believing Forever)

Moving Back In Time, See Our Lonely Shadows
Moving Closer Now, Through Our Open Window

Power To Love Each Other…


11. WARP

When They Turn The Hour By The Moon At Night
We'll Be Disappearing In A Pale Blue Light
I Can Almost See You Walking Back To Me
Soon It Will Be Buried
Buried Deep, Within My Memory

Listen To The Voice In The Wood
Turning Back Would Do Me No…
I Can Always Climb Down If You Really Need A Fix
It's So Easy To Be Held Down When You Cannot Do Without

Cover Me, Destiny, I've Been The Victim Of
And Worried About The Sentimental
Cover Me, Personally, I See No Future Now,
In Yesterday…

Have We Been Mistaken, Do You Know Why We Kissed?
We Never Knew What Hit Us, Don't Know What We Missed
Though My Path Is Simple, I'm Not Worried Somehow
A Common Thread Will Lead Me Back Again By And By

When A Mind Is Empty, Everything Works Fine
Trouble Keeps Appearing, Looking Back In Time
Evil Gateways Open, When I Pay The Fee
Ever Since You Left Me,
Left Me Here With My Memory

No One Near Expected You Would,
No One Really Understood
I Can Always Climb Down If You Really Need A Fix
It's So Easy To Be Held Down When You Cannot Do Without

Cover Me, Destiny, I've Been The Victim Of
And Worried About The Sentimental
Cover Me, Personally, I See No Future Now,
In Yesterday…
