1. BORN TO GO

We were born to go,
We're never turning back
We were born to go,
and leave a burning track
We were born to go,
and leave no star unturned
We were born to grow,
We were born to learn

We're breaking out of the shell,
We're breaking free
We're hatching our dreams into reality

We were born to blaze,
a new clear way through space
A way out of the maze,
that held the human race
We were born to go,
as far as we can fly
We were born to go,
to blow the human mind

We're breaking out of the shell,
We're breaking free
We're hatching our dreams into reality




2. SEVEN BY SEVEN

Lost am I in this world of timelessness and woe
Can I find the doorway through which I must go?
Is the key to this plane too much for me to try to gain?
Is the passport to this world my astral soul?

Seven signs rode on seven stars
Seven ways to find the long lost bards
Seven days became seven years
While Pocus laughed and called foul jeers
Seven times he cursed the seven tears
Each one became their seven fears
What is lost is never gained again
I've cast the spell that eternity chained
No more to cry o mortal soul
The astral path is now your fortuitous role




3. BRAINSTORM

Standing on the runway waiting to take-off
I wanna fly, wanna watch me flake off
I can't move 'cause the man has the brake on
You gotta help me, help me to shake off

This body of mine – I've gotta get out of this void
Body of mine – coz I don't wanna be destroyed
Body of mine – and I don't wanna turn android
Body of mine – you gotta help me avoid that

Brainstorm – here I go
Brainstorm – flying low
Brainstorm – I'm gonna miss it
Brainstorm – you bet I'd kiss it

Can't get no peace 'til I get into motion
Sign my release from this planet's erosion
Paranoia police have sussed out my potion
You gotta help me or there'll be an explosion

In this body of mine – I've gotta get out of this void
Body of mine – coz I don't wanna be destroyed
Body of mine – and I don't wanna turn android
Body of mine – you gotta help me avoid that

Brainstorm – here I go
Brainstorm – flying low
Brainstorm – I'm gonna miss it
Brainstorm – you bet I'd kiss it

I'm breaking up
I'm falling apart
I'm floating away




4. MASTER OF UNIVERSE

I am the centre of this universe
The wind of time is blowing through me
And it's all moving relative to me,
It's all a figment of my mind
In a world that I've designed
I'm charged with cosmic energy
Has the world gone mad or is it me?

I am the creator of this universe
And all that it was meant to be
So that we might learn to see
This foolishness that lives in us
And stupidity that we must suss
How to banish from our minds
If you call this living I must be blind

5. PARANOIA

(Instrumental)

6. SILVER MACHINE

I just took a ride
in a silver machine
and I'm still feeling mean
I got a silver machine
Do you want to ride
see yourself going by
other side of the sky
Well I got a silver machine
It flies sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your Zodiac sign
It flies out of a dream
It's anti-septically clean
You're gonna know where I've been
In my silver machine
