Lyrics!

To the readers looking forward to musical posts, this should appeal to you. These are self-composed lyrics to 16 new songs. Hopefully, if my friends can do their part, these will become full-fledged songs. As the album making process is moved along, updates will be made periodically. This is the first post, detailing the lyrics as they stand now.

1. Here Today, Gone Tomorrow – Now you see it and then you don’t/It induces no fear yet it seems to haunt/You have no reasons to fear/Understand that it will be//Here today and gone tomorrow/It makes you laugh and drown in sorrow/Immense pain and endless lies/It’ll make you cry but don’t let it get you down//It isn’t here, it has left you alone/It only does this to let you stand alone/But we want you to succeed/And if it remains, it would only impede/So let it go before it’s//Here today and gone tomorrow/Dragging you down and asking to borrow/Your strength, your gifts/Anything you offer/But don’t let it take you down//If you let it stay, it’ll take away/Everything you’re proud to call your own/So let it go and it will be//Gone today for every tomorrow/Ridding all your pain and sorrow/Your heart will be filled and no longer be hollow/Leaving you with all your dreams to follow
2. This Won’t Last Forever – There is a feeling that something will happen/I wish to know what it is/The answers are not going to come clearly/But it is certainly going to happen//Despite what you want, know this won’t last forever/In your near future, it’ll disappear forever/It doesn’t matter if you’re cunning or clever/You can’t make this last forever//This afflicting clairvoyance tells me that it’s over/Seeing the future shows me that it’s over/I’d rather not see the truth that it’s over/So let us live now, before it’s over forever//Despite what you want, know this won’t last forever/In your near future, it’ll disappear forever/It doesn’t matter if you’re cunning or clever/You can’t make this last forever//I need your love/When push comes to shove/With intervention from above/Before it’s all over//Despite what you want, know this won’t last forever/In your near future, it’ll disappear forever/It doesn’t matter if you’re cunning or clever/You can’t make this last forever//I was told that we’d all die/And I cannot honestly deny/It may be over now, but not for forever/We’re gone for now, but this will last forever
3. Enlightened Future (Subliminal Messages) – Looking forward/Not behind/I am not lost/And you cannot find//This is an enlightened future/Or so it may seem/But these subliminal messages/Are simply just dreams//Making progress/But not amends/When we should be forgiving/We are only just friends/With no brightness in sight/We cannot see the light/The messages haunt the night/And the future doesn’t look so bright//This is an enlightened future/Or so it may seem/But these subliminal messages/Are simply just dreams//Someday, someway/Somebody will say/The things I said to you/They’ll be lost and confused/And they’ll do what I chose to/Let their future be enlightened/And the messages clear/Go on and do well/For you, we’ll be here.
4. Aftermath – Hold on child, while you’re falling apart/Your dreams aren’t gone unless they die in your heart/Listen because my advice is a blessing/Stop worrying and second guessing/You can be anything you want//In the aftermath/Pick yourself up off the floor/This isn’t your life anymore/Change it, create it/Make it yours/Shake the whole world to its core//There is no direction, so you can’t be lost/Take what I offer you, it comes with no cost/Think of what you do, and say a prayer/We’ll be with you, both here and there//In the aftermath/Pick yourself up off the floor/This isn’t your life anymore/Change it, create it/Make it yours/Shake the whole world to its core//Look at yourself now/You are on the mend/The newfound perfection/It will never end/You’ve changed your life/and now it’s much better/Nothing can go wrong now because you’re//In the aftermath/Pick yourself up off the floor/This isn’t your life anymore/Change it, create it/Make it yours/Shake the whole world to its core//
5. We Are the Lonely People – Look at the clock, it’s half past eight/On the day of the world’s fate/Everyone stayed home, they couldn’t bear to see/The Apocalypse and then what we’d be/The world tied in fear/Whisper in my ear//We are the lonely people/But we are the only people/Who can save the world/There is pride to be swallowed/As the leaders will follow/As lonely people save the world//The clocks are still ticking/It’s half past nine/Children and men alike/Are weeping and crying/They sit alone, in anticipation/With their hearts and minds flying/Isn’t this the day, they think/That we’re supposed to be dying?//We are the lonely people/But we are the only people/Who can save the world/There is pride to be swallowed/As the leaders will follow/As lonely people save the world//What will become of us now?/All screaming and dreaming so loud/Were those people all psychics back then?/Could they see that this was the end?/And here we wait/Wait for what will be/This is what we are/We will all be set free// We are the lonely people/But we are the only people/Who can save the world/There is pride to be swallowed/As the leaders will follow/As lonely people save the world//
6. Temporary – There’s no fire, so what’s the rush?/Why do you have to move so fast?/Slow down and enjoy your life/You know it’s only temporary//Slow down before you crash/See the beauty in another’s trash/Since this life is so temporary/And there’s so much more than cash//If you go on like this/It’s gonna knock you down/So careless, so reckless/You’re not even in it for the crown/The leaves will fall/Right after they turn brown/And you’ll lose it all/in greed, you’ll swim and drown//Slow down before you crash/See the beauty in another’s trash/Since this life is so temporary/And there’s so much more than cash//Enjoy your life while you still can/Because it is so temporary/Don’t rush it, don’t force it/Or heavy burdens you will carry/Learn to love the life your given/Or it won’t be life you’re livin’/Slow down before you crash/See the beauty in another’s trash/Since this life is so temporary/And there’s so much more than cash
7. I Stand No Chance Tonight – The world is caving in again/I stand here, watching it collapse/This isn’t what was meant to happen/And yet, it’s the fate we suffer/You come up to me/And ask me what went wrong/I have no answer to your question/But I do know this one fact//The world is ending, and I can’t stop it/The leaders are corrupted, they don’t want to stop it/You don’t understand, so you can’t stop it/Seven billion other people don’t care, and I stand no chance tonight/I can’t change a single thing/I am the defeated minority/And even if I tried/I stand no chance tonight//Alone, the world is now helpless/Consequences of the fatal war/People left stranded, lonely and hungry/Cry out for help on every shore/My heart breaks as I see this happen/To think we let it get this far/But the mess is ours, this one that we’ve made/What could have been accomplished, we’ll never know//The world is ending, and I can’t stop it/The leaders are corrupted, they don’t want to stop it/You don’t understand, so you can’t stop it/Seven billion other people don’t care, and I stand no chance tonight/I can’t change a single thing/I am the defeated minority/And even if I tried/I stand no chance tonight//Lift us up now, under the holy grail/Let us pray and beg for help/Our sins are not unforgivable/Unless we let them stay and ask for no help/Let them be buried, in this new landscape/The one that we have now been dealt/The only thing we ask for now/Is forgiveness and help//The world is ending, and I can’t stop it/The leaders are corrupted, they don’t want to stop it/You don’t understand, so you can’t stop it/Seven billion other people don’t care, and I stand no chance tonight/I can’t change a single thing/I am the defeated minority/And even if I tried/I stand no chance tonight/The world is ending, and I can’t stop it/The leaders are corrupted, they don’t want to stop it/You don’t understand, so you can’t stop it/Seven billion other people don’t care, and I stand no chance tonight/I can’t change a single thing/I am the defeated minority/And even if I tried/I stand no chance tonight//I stand no, I stand no, I stand no, I stand no chance tonight
8. Radio Active – Autotuned and automatic/Is all we hear just static?/No notes and no lyrics/We can’t hear so clear if/The sound is just noise/like the little kids and their toys/You gotta tune in to make it clearer/Make the music get much nearer//Radio, radio, give us your gift/Let us hear every single tune/The ones that are screaming/And the ones that will croon/We need to override the static/Make it sound more diplomatic/Let our ears soak up the sound//The sound in your speakers/Will make you tap your sneakers/The guitars, drum, and bass/It’s all in good taste/Fast paced techno and thumping electro/All the songs you know/The sound can open your soul/Will make you feel whole//Radio, radio, give us your gift/Let us hear every single tune/The ones that are screaming/And the ones that will croon/We need to override the static/Make it sound more diplomatic/Let our ears soak up the sound//We need to be more/Radio active/Hearing more, above the roar/More radio active/Music to everyone’s ears/Just put away your fears/It will calm your heart and nerves// Radio, radio, give us your gift/Let us hear every single tune/The ones that are screaming/And the ones that will croon/We need to override the static/Make it sound more diplomatic/Let our ears soak up the sound
9. Sunrise Village – The breaking hours of the day/With the dawn the sky awakes/Orange, red, and pink in the air/A light breeze makes the trees shake/I see the beauty/In the newborn day/We’re the only ones here/In the sunrise village//Open up the windows now/Let us bathe in the light/It feels so calm and warm/After the cold dark night/It is so welcoming/So loving and true/The colors are so natural/In all the beautiful hues//The awakening/Of the day ahead/Possibilities endless/We are ready now/Ready to savor every moment we can/This is only the beginning/Of a beautiful day//Open up the windows now/Let us bathe in the light/It feels so calm and warm/After the cold dark night/It is so welcoming/So loving and true/The colors are so natural/In all the beautiful hues//Wish upon the morning star/The one of radiant light/We have nothing to fear/with such beauty so near//Inside the sunrise village/With the beautiful light/We wish for great happiness/And we will have no frights//Open up the windows now/Let us bathe in the light/It feels so calm and warm/After the cold dark night/It is so welcoming/So loving and true/The colors are so natural/In all the beautiful hues//Wish upon the morning star/The one of radiant light/We have nothing to fear/with such beauty so near
10. Whispering Hills – The wind in the grasses/How it rustles so softly/Listen to the sound/It speaks answers to your life/The voice is so quiet/And also quite gentle/It can tell you/Everything you need to know//Listen to the whispering hills/Their insight is so deep/The things they will tell you/can easily make you weep/The climb to get there/Is most definitely steep/But with the rewards you gain/There is so much knowledge to reap//To find this place/Hidden deep in nature/You must travel very far/And disturb not a creature/It’s a tough task to complete/But well worth the time/And when you make it there/It’ll cost not a dime//(Long instrumental) Listen to the whispering hills/Their insight is so deep/The things they will tell you/can easily make you weep/The climb to get there/Is most definitely steep/But with the rewards you gain/There is so much knowledge to reap//Listen to the whispering hills/Their insight is so deep/The things they will tell you/can easily make you weep/The climb to get there/Is most definitely steep/But with the rewards you gain/There is so much knowledge to reap
11. Victorious – To any challenge/I say game on/I have no fear of losing/Because I’m never second best/The more competition/The better in my eyes/They’ve got no chance/Because I’ll be victorious//I wish you all the best of luck/But this game is mine to win/I will never leave or give up/Until the prize is in my hands/Give it everything that you’ve got/But I’ll make you very furious/This game is my destiny/To be victorious//As the competition wears on/I see them break and buckle/Running down on pride/and losing all their hustle/Only a few left standing/In the ultimate test/But they’ll fall as well/And I’ll be victorious//I wish you all the best of luck/But this game is mine to win/I will never leave or give up/Until the prize is in my hands/Give it everything that you’ve got/But I’ll make you very furious/This game is my destiny/To be victorious//Admit it all now/It’s insane we’ve made it this far/With time running down/And we all feel our scars/The morning sun is rising now/On the horizon’s crest/Close your eyes and quit/Because I’ll be victorious//I wish you all the best of luck/But this game is mine to win/I will never leave or give up/Until the prize is in my hands/Give it everything that you’ve got/But I’ll make you very furious/This game is my destiny/To be victorious//I wish you all the best of luck/But this game is mine to win/I will never leave or give up/Until the prize is in my hands/Give it everything that you’ve got/But I’ll make you very furious/This game is my destiny/To be victorious//This game/Was always mine to win/I’ll did it now/And if needed, I’ll do it again
12. The Plan – Ideas floating through my head/Thinking clearly and organized/This is quite chaotic/I can’t seem to get an order/Trying to think of what I can do/To improve the life I’m living/I concentrate and think some more/But nothing is coming of it//This is the plan to rearrange my life/To save me from the chaos that gnaws relentless/This is a plan to get me going/Motivation to improve myself from where I am//I’m now willing to take action/To save myself from the disorder/The clearest of thoughts/May still be hazy/But I am trying/Isn’t that all they can ask of me?/Trying harder than ever/To make this plan a reality//This is the plan to rearrange my life/To save me from the chaos that gnaws relentless/This is a plan to get me going/Motivation to improve myself from where I am//Listen to me now, because I need your help/This is the plan, with the details you need to follow/Please do as I say, it means the world to me/Just by asking I’ve had pride to swallow//This is the plan to rearrange my life/To save me from the chaos that gnaws relentless/This is a plan to get me going/Motivation to improve myself from where I am//From where I am/Saving me from the chaos/The plan makes it clearer/The plan is the answer
13. Manipulator – Nowhere for you to run/I’ve got you in my grasp/Your twisting and turning/Watching the time pass/I’m getting in your head/And playing with your mind/Welcome to the fake world/Harsh, cruel, and unkind//I can really twist your mind/Making you feel so hated/I am behind the scenes, but everybody knows me/I am the manipulator//No need for you to worry/Everything will be alright/I’ve seen all of this coming, no troubles/You’ll see this in a different light/I know I’ve hurt your pride/And it pains me that I did/But I did this to make life better/And soon we will be able to live//I can really twist your mind/Making you feel so hated/I am behind the scenes, but everybody knows me/I am the manipulator//You can’t stop me/You are my puppet/You can’t escape/Prepare to live a lie// I can really twist your mind/Making you feel so hated/I am behind the scenes, but everybody knows me/I am the manipulator
14. Nothing At All – Have you ever asked yourself/What does it all mean?/Often in the times of trouble/The answers are unseen//With your back against the wall/When you need someone to call/Remember what I said to you/It doesn’t mean anything at all//How does it feel/To know you have no power?/It’s a feeling so helpless/No control in that fateful hour/It’s heartbreaking to see/That you’re falling apart/Left alone, cold and lonely/With a hardened and dark heart//With your back against the wall/When you need someone to call/Remember what I said to you/It doesn’t mean anything at all//The answers that you seek/Shouldn’t mean a thing to you/Even with the knowledge/What can you really do?/It’s nothing at all/Nothing that can help/Don’t worry what everybody else thinks/Just worry about yourself//With your back against the wall/When you need someone to call/Remember what I said to you/It doesn’t mean anything at all

You Are the Only One For Me – The breaking of the day/Colors in the sky/So beautiful/I have always admired you/And you always inspired me/The love you give, so plentiful//The best of the best/Nothing like the rest/You are as amazing as can be/So perfect/So stunning/You are the only one for me//If I was going to listen/To what other people said/There’d be no hope left/So I follow my heart/And do what I want/To keep my dreams alive//The best of the best/Nothing like the rest/You are as amazing as can be/So perfect/So stunning/You are the only one for me//Let me show you what I can do/To give my heart to you/This is a risk I want to take/Hoping my heart won’t break/All I ask for is a chance/A chance to show what I am made of//The best of the best/Nothing like the rest/You are as amazing as can be/So perfect/So stunning/You are the only one for me//The best of the best/Nothing like the rest/You are as amazing as can be/So perfect/So stunning/You are the only one for me//
16. Against All Odds – See us where we stand/Here at home on our own land/Size us up from the distance/and show your strongest stance/Seconds left until the game begins/This place will rock until the end/Get ready now, here’s your kick/By the end you’ll have seen our tricks//Nobody expects a thing out of us/We’re ready to prove them all wrong/You’re the only side expected to win/But we’re here to put up a fight/We may not have a single chance/But we’ll try against all odds//Jumping on your quick offensive/But your lead is not extensive/We’re not gonna die quite yet/We’re just getting started so you can bet/We’ll rally back and stun them all/It is their turn to take the fall/By the middle we’ve got the tie/Pumped, ferocious, never say die//Nobody expects a thing out of us/We’re ready to prove them all wrong/You’re the only side expected to win/But we’re here to put up a fight/We may not have a single chance/But we’ll try against all odds//We take our control and settle in/How on Earth is this happening?/But we start to feel safe and let you in/Making us work hard once again/There’s the magic in the air/And now our chances are fair/And then the runner found his breaks/Making the whole building shake/No one can believe what they just saw/We just won, against all odds// Nobody expects a thing out of us/We’re ready to prove them all wrong/You’re the only side expected to win/But we’re here to put up a fight/We may not have a single chance/But we’ll try against all odds
