The Wandering Traveler Knowing not where he goes The Wandering Traveler Always looking for a home Whether by bike or by train He roams the world from ocean to plain A guitar on his back… And a tune in his hand He’s looking for a haven to call home Yet he feels he is caving when he’s alone The Wandering Traveler Knowing not where he goes The Wandering Traveler Always looking for a home Whether by bike or by train He roams the world from ocean to plain A guitar on his back… And a tune in his hand No matter the weather he…feels needs to wander He really can’t help it – It’s his… second nature The Wandering Traveler Knowing not where he goes The Wandering Traveler Always looking for a home Whether by bike or by train He roams the world from ocean to plain A guitar on his back… And a tune in his hand A girl in each port, his temper really quite short His charm’s so beguiling, yet he’s never lying I’ve met his kind once or twice Leave fast – take my advice The Wandering Traveler Knowing not where he goes The Wandering Traveler Always looking for a home Whether by bike or by train He roams the world from ocean to plain A guitar on his back… And a tune in his hand

Lucky Stars 03:45
I lay by the sea Watched the waves pass me by My heart beating to the breeze Lay gazing at the sky Water all around me I feel the intense unity In silence unspoken Like a spell unbroken Thank my lucky stars We are who we are Lord up above Shows us all about love For the plains and the seas And that is what makes us… Free, free, free free Free, free, free, free Wondering in awe Does my past lay here Buried in the depths I saw It’s calling me, a long lost cry Reeling me day and night Thank my lucky stars We are who we are Lord up above Shows us all about love For the plains and the seas And that is what makes us… Free, free, free free Free, free, free, free Ride with me baby Swim to meet the kindred Dreams of yonder fare Escaping to Atlantis As the waves roll along And the sea sings its song I feel whole and as one With the heavens and the sun Ride with me baby, ride with me baby, ride with me baby, oh!! Free, free, free, free What makes us free

Let Me Out 03:48
When my soul got in a fight Didn’t know wrong from right Thought I’d lose my strength within Dididididididit… The path to guide my soul Was though good ‘ol rock and roll Music was my heart and parole I wanna holler, I wanna yell I wanna scream, I wanna shout Let me out, let me out, let me out I wanna holler, I wanna yell I wanna scream, I wanna shout Let me out, oh let me out Feeling conflicted Guilt catching up Music making me free I need to be there for my family Made my own prison through responsibility Don’t want no more, no more! Give me my guitar Give me my bass Give me my drums Give me a place Heaven is but a sound away Peace found in play I wanna holler, I wanna yell I wanna scream, I wanna shout Let me out, let me out, let me out I wanna holler, I wanna yell I wanna scream, I wanna shout Let me out, oh let me out

I can’t help helping It’s in my nature I’m not going to give up A Saint Bernard at heart My heart yearns for understanding Reciprocity All love and affection That would be me Gotta save myself, gotta save myself It’s like a mantra I’ve gotta repeat Save myself, gotta save myself Close the door and admit my defeat I wish you’d see the goodness Reflections of your soul Mirrors of your sadness I just couldn’t make you whole I’m leaving you see As that’s all that is left Mourning that ideal I’m feeling bereft Gotta save myself, gotta save myself It’s like a mantra I’ve gotta repeat Save myself, gotta save myself Close the door and admit my defeat Understand my heart is bleeding I didn’t want to leave you behind But you just kept on drinking Instead of saying what’s on your mind Why choose the bottle and not me? It’s time to set me free – oh! Gotta save myself, gotta save myself It’s like a mantra I’ve gotta repeat Save myself, gotta save myself Gonna save myself from you!

New Dawn 03:19
Anxious ‘bout the current events I can’t open my phone Feeling panic arising Is this how it ends? Tell me why do we inflict so much harm? Why does money, greed and power Still lead us to our doom, Reigning like a prince without a crown? I’m feeling so let down (so let down) A Smile of a clown (Of a clown) I want my safety back How can we get to that? We can’t go on It’s all coming undone (come undone) Voices of yonder warning of our demise It's we who shall be sacrificed Curse of the dark hearts Wishing not to hear sense Not willing to play their part So they put up a fence Hoping no one will harm them then I’m feeling so let down (so let down) A Smile of a clown (Of a clown) I want my safety back How can we get to that? We can’t go on It’s all coming undone (come undone) Voices of yonder warning of our demise It's we who shall be sacrificed As if greed will protect them When doom comes knocking At their door Really, what are we waiting for? Head on my knees Heart on my head, falling to my knees I pray for a new beginning Dawn arising Hope prevailing It's a New Dawn It's a New Dawn It's a New Dawn

He’s a poor little miserable Poor little miserable Poor little miserable boy He thinks he’s a big shot man He thinks he can put his hands down my pants Feels the right, that he can Well, I’m telling you.. He’s just a… Poor little miserable Poor little miserable Poor little miserable boy He thinks he can be the top of the pops He thinks he can make it straight to the top He’s just so sad to see In his 40 year-old robes You’d think he could be Humbled by life and its woes Oh no no no no no… He takes his big mouth for a count of swag But he shows his lack of culture when he opens his trap Indecent proposals, jokingly said Thinking he can get you to bed He’s a poor little miserable Poor little miserable Poor little miserable boy

F*** You 03:36
I don’t believe your sweet way I don’t believe a thing you say You’re used to people’s pandering All that pampering I was there from the start Gave you my soul and my heart Gotta learn to be stronger Face you head on Fuck you and your miserable life Fuck you – words cutting like a knife Your sweet demeanour A false pretense for others who believe you (And) I say – fuck you! Throw back my head and laugh I am the worst fool ever ‘Never learn from the past Relationships blending in and out, jaded games I have to learn to be stronger Face you head on – leave you on the kerb ‘Stead of letting reason take over Feeling like I’ve been served Fuck you and your miserable life Fuck you – words cutting like a knife Your sweet demeanour A false pretense for others to believe you (And) I say – Ooh The last laugh will be on me Your meanness setting me free Watch me as I turn my back I told you – I’ll have the last laugh! Hey, hey, hey hey! Fuck you and your miserable life Fuck you – words cutting like a knife Your sweet demeanour A false pretense for others who believe you (And) I say – fuck you!

No one can explain the disappointment Everytime you fail your own words I hope that you’ll show up, honorable mention But no, I’m stuck in that curve Why can’t you do what you say? Why d’you keep on playing me this way? What is wrong with you That you can’t stick with the truth? It makes me so angry And then you ask what is wrong You flip the tables on me And then I’m the one end up feelin’ dumb Why can’t you do what you say? Why d’you keep on playing me this way? What is wrong with you That you can’t stick with the truth? As if it’s my fault you’re wrong And you’re the good guy all along Why can’t you do what you say? Why d’you keep on playing me this way? What is wrong with you That you can’t stick with the truth?

Will this gaping hole ever fill up What will it take to fill up that cup Vicarious pleasures, a life spent And yet the mind is bent I am but the sum of a whole Shards of who I used to be Living in that warped memory A story aching to be told Fill the void, fill the void Sucked through nothingness Fill the void, fill the void Wanting to feel nothing less Fill the void, fill the void Sucked through nothingness Wanting to feel something more I have loved and lost Losing myself in that death Keeping to her side at all cost How will I stand this test? Fill the void, fill the void Sucked through nothingness Fill the void, fill the void Wanting to feel nothing less Fill the void, fill the void Sucked through nothingness Wanting to feel something more You are my rebound Mirror of happiness found Looking in, as if I were you How I wish I could go through Fill the void, fill the void Sucked through nothingness Fill the void, fill the void Wanting to feel nothing less Fill the void, fill the void Sucked through nothingness Wanting to feel something more

Inner Voice 03:05
Suck you in, spew you out Showbiz will change what you’re about Caught in the limelight Forget what’s right Shine and glimmer - all that shimmers Everyone wants a bit of glory Hiding behind their story Fight against the tide Don’t go with the flow Being alone ain’t so bad Light, coming from within Strength from your soul Listen to your inner voice Light, coming from within Strength from your soul Listen to your inner voice Glitz and glam left behind Words you just have to say No more leeches to suck you dry Happy in your own skin Light, coming from within Strength from your soul Listen to your inner voice Light, coming from within Strength from your soul Listen to your inner voice

Sisterhood 04:27
There were so many days I would walk in a haze Everything felt so wrong Happiness was long gone I was bleeding inside Just wanted to hide When you reached out to help Saving me from myself Kind words, like snow Cooling my burning soul Sisterhood beyond words Protection, laughter, affection You lift me up when I’m afraid You lift me up, help me feel loved You lift me up, through thick and thin I'm thankful I have you To help me find my strength within We can count on each other We’ve got nothing to hide No need to keep it bottled up inside No matter the weather We know we’re together Even when we’re far apart Life’s carrousel won’t throw us off My Sisterhood – pulling through the rough My sisterhood Oooh You lift me up when I’m afraid You lift me up, help me feel loved You lift me up, through thick and thin I'm thankful I have you To help me find my strength within
