AGE OF ILLUSION

Album track

(Age of Illusion released 2014 No Emo Blanc records)

Here she comes now, she’s an angel but

on the inside she is like a devil

We adore her, wanna be her

Escape reality and then destroy her

Here she comes the lovely ghost

dressed in the emperor's new clothes

In the age of illusion nothing is real

In the age of illusion, it’s artificial

Here he comes now, Mr. Hollow

Making promises that we must follow

The truth is out there go and find it

Look through his disguise and see what

lies behind it

Follow faithfully like dogs and

worship your digital Gods

CAREFUL OF DREAMS

Track Distant Skies EP 2013

A dream of silence in a sea of blue

To swim with dolphins is a dream come true

In paradise, the sharks reside.

Be careful of dreams,

dreams they can destroy you.

Be careful of dreams,

they might come true.

I had a dream

and I found myself drowning

in a dream called you.

A

glimpse of heaven from a house made of

stoneThe

walls, a castle;This

chair, a throne.Under

palace floors, the rats hold court

Tread

carefully,there

might be monsters.Even

saints cast shadows.I

worshipped your name,the

face of an angel,with

the soul of a devil

CORRIDORSAlbum

Track (Climate of Fear - released 18/03/16)

Empty

spaces, distant voicesKeep

on running turning cornersDown

the corridors

Never

ending, going nowhereDestination,

getting furtherDown

the corridors

One

day I’ll find my own way out of this dark placeOne

day I’ll see the light and I’ll disappear without trace

Voices

calling, getting closerKeep

on running, turn the cornerDown

the corridors

FOREVER

RUNNINGAlbum

track, Forever Running, released Sire records, 1985

Life,

in a quiet town I felt that I might drownIn

obscurity Like a hermitI

always seemed to be in bedWith

stacks of books I should have readLike

Kerouac, Virginia Woolf & GenetIt

seems to me, the place to beIs

far away from hollow dreamsThat

satisfy the few and not the many

You,

you turn my world aroundYou,

you turn me upside down

And

everything that you doAnd

everything that you sayJust

keeps me running to be right next to youAnd

every time that we meetthe

earth moves under my feetI

melt in your body heatI

can't compete

Down,

from the barren slopesTo

the plain belowWhere

the city sleeps I took my two feetThey

say tomorrow's all aboutMistakes

we make, and there's no doubtI

have made so many I can't count themForget

the past and move on fastAway

from dreams that never lastForever

gunning, forever running

You

turn my world aroundYou,

you turn me upside down

With

everything that you doI'm

not afraid what Virginia Woolf might doAnd

every word that you sayFrom

the balcony I'll throw Jean GenetWith

everything that you doKeeps

me running to be right next to youAnd

everything that you sayForever

running, forever running

HEART

OF GOLDAlbum

track, Forever Running, released Sire records, 1985

She

circles round me like a glowing wheel tonightPrecious

soul, heart of goldAlthough

she has no money she is rich in kindTreasure

trove, heart of goldSo

I get drunk on her elixir of lifeThat

overflows from her heart of goldThen

I get burnt as the immortal flame ignitesAnd

starts to glow in her heart of gold

Here

in this Russian winterOutside

it's twelve belowAnd

in this prison chamberShe

melts the ice between my toesWith

a heart of gold

Yes

it's the thought that countsThe

thought that caresThe

thought that can'tBe

overthrown in a heart of goldNo,

she will not be silentShe

will not be toldDespite

the cold, her heart is gold

JUST

AN ECHOAlbum

track, Forever Running, released Sire records, 1985

She's

a kind of goddessThe

kind that can be cruelAnd

I'm her foolLike

John the BaptistMy

head will fall for youI'm

cut in twoA

taunting smileBewildered

and bewitchedI've

come unstitched

I

thought, I saw you smile at meBut

it was meant for someone else to findI

thought, I heard you say my nameBut

it was just an echo in my mind

These

desperate hoursAs

brittle as a leafAn

imprisoned thiefLike

Ingrid BergmanSo

fragile and divineWhen

she said her lines

LEFT

OUT IN THE COLDEP

track (Nowhere Girl 6 track EP released 1980 Dead Good Records)

I’ve

had enough, I don’t want you any moreI’ve

realised there’s more to life than boy and girlLove,

love gone stale this has been no fairly taleLeave

me alone, I’m better off on my ownAnd

whose to know?Left

out in the cold

Watch

from the window, watch me walk awayYou

call out my name now you’re begging for me to stayOnce,

once is enough, not gonna lose my head in the clouds againLeave

me alone, I’m better off on my ownAnd

whose to know?Left

out in the cold

Taken

in by every thing you saidBut

I was tricked again and again and againLove,

love gone stale, this has been no fairly taleLeave

me alone I’m better off on my ownAnd

whose to know?Left

out in the cold

MOLESTrack

on Some Bizarre Album, 1981

The

moles who bury themselvesBeneath

their paranoiaHidden

from society

Moles

in holesUndergroundThey

can't be found

Subterranean

animalsSitting

ugly in their smugnessBasking

in mediocrity

Hate

to stand out in the crowdDressed

in black and they make no soundWhispering

occasionally

MY

SHIP OF DREAMSAlbum

track, Forever Running, released Sire records, 1985

Time

to end this long hiatusMy

wounded heart is on the mendI'll

search for gold in AcapulcoThe

treasure chest at rainbow's end

Wind,

sand and stars will heal the scarsI'm

melting down these prison barsA

lonely lightship lost at seaThat's

what my heart will be

My

ship of dreams(Sailing

away)In

my ship of dreams(Sailing

away)In

my ship of dreams

Citadels

and far pavilionsMidnight

sun, Savannah starsThrough

sapphire seas and sulphur mountainsTo

the paradise bazaar

NOWHERE

GIRLSingle

on Dead Good records 1980, Re-recorded single Some Bizarre Records

1982

Nowhere

girl, you’re living in a dreamNowhere

girl, you stay behind the scenes,Nowhere

girl, you never go outside,Nowhere

girl, 'cause you prefer to hide.

Every

day, every mightIn

that all old familiar lightYou

hung up when I called you at home.And

I try to get throughAnd

I try to talk to youBut

there's something stopping me from getting through

Nowhere

girl, what you had you need,Nowhere

girl, all functional and neat,Nowhere

girl, in self-imposed exile,Nowhere

girl, a martyr-like denial

OTHER

PEOPLE’S LIVESAlbum

track (Age of Illusion released 2014 No Emo Blanc records)

Other

people’s lives are more interesting than oursThat’s

why we never tire of poking our noses inI

want to know all the sordid detailsFly

on the wall, I’ve got to know what’s really going on

The

secrets and the liesThe

truth behind the smilesof

other people’s livesIt’s

really interestingWe

only ever see what we’re supposed to seeThey’re

just like you and mebut

far more interesting

Other

people’s worlds are more fascinatingThat’s

why we never tire of sticking the boot inI

want to know all the informationLet’s

dig some dirtI

got to know what’s happening

I

don’t know how she does itThree

kids and a Cocaine habitIt’s

morally reprehensible of courseBut

in this day and age it’s just par for the course

REMEMBRANCE

photographs in silver framesUpon

the mantelpieceRemembrance

out victims blown sky highburied

where they lieA

SHE’S

A CAR CRASHAlbum

track (Age of Illusion released 2014 No Emo Blanc records)

He

broke her heart it shattered into piecesTorn

apart left her for the vulturesA

car crash by the side of the roadHe

broke her heart now there’s no feelingShe’s

a car crash

He

stole her dreams then gave them to anotherTook

everything gave them to his loverA

burnt wreck by the side of the roadHe

stole her dreams they are gone forever

I

want to put her together again with my loveI

want to mend her broken heart her shattered dreamsand

make her feel againI

want to put her together again with my love

He

ripped her up like shreds of paperThrew

them away into the gutterLitter

by the side of the roadHe

ripped her up now its all overShe’s

a car crash

SWITCH

ON SWITCH OFFAlbum

track, Forever Running, released Sire records, 1985

With

a heartbeat and a breathAs

much emotion as a silhouetteSwitching

on then switching offLike

machinery devoid of loveSwitch

on - switch offSwitch

on - switch off

With

a footstep on the iceOn

the other side is paradiseThat's

the risk we have to takeOr

we never move away from base

The

hands on the clock were goingRound

and round and round and roundTime

is crawling on its knees todaySwitch

on, love flows through your eyesSwitch

off, love goes and we lie againLie

again, lie again oh oh oh !

With

a promise written in your heartTake

a mighty jump into the darkFace

the fear, face to faceAnd

the dark becomes a friendly place

WALKING

DEADSession

track Radio Trent 1980

Remembering

the times when we used to play games in the back of my carMemories

of an afternoon spent with you and Bogart in the cinemaBut

now you’re gone I only hear the sound of the factory life machineI

lie awake in bed put the pillow to my head and I daydream

In

the time honoured manner of someone that’s lost his loverI

don’t need a friendSo

I’ll watch the world go by as a tear forms in my eyes when I hear

them sayHe’s

like the walking dead

Remembering

the times when we used to go walking down the country lanesand

the birds and the sky and the leaves and the trees and the wind and

rainbut

now you’re gone I only hear the sound of the wined howling through

my doorWhen

someone rings my bell I just crawl into my shell and pretend no-one’s

home
