Sleep Easy 05:04
SLEEP EASY Wild eyes, tousled hair, standing on the bridge Teardrops making ripples on the water Can’t hide, frozen still, against the odds again Come back down, we’ll talk a while about it Sleep easy little princess I hope you’re gonna sleep so easy when you dream Sleep easy little princess I know you’re gonna sleep so easy when you dream I’m a believer in you, I’m a believer in you New life, watch it grow, helping it along Time to fertilise the flowerbeds again To fast, way too slow but never somewhere in-between Pull the weed up by the roots or it’ll grow again Sleep easy little princess I hope you’re gonna sleep so easy when you dream Sleep easy little princess I know you’re gonna sleep so easy when you dream I’m a believer in you; I’m a believer in you The lull of a bygone day blows by leaving me with a dream for the night And the question of sleeping is not so much when, but of why I’d like to be able to tell you your dreams, the good ones are so hard to find But it’s bigger and longer and harder and stronger than I, I, I Wild eyes, tousled hair, stranded on the bridge Come back down, we’ll talk a while about it To far, not far enough, but never somewhere in-between Change your mind, you’re doing fine without it Sleep easy little princess I hope you’re gonna sleep so easy when you dream Sleep easy little princess I know you’re gonna sleep so easy when you dream I’m a believer in you; I’m a believer in you

Big Machine 04:34
BIG MACHINE The silent earth is screaming As autumns child is dreaming Steel waters run deeper they say Mother Natures’ heart is aching As a brand new day is breaking But in waking dreams are fading away The world keeps spinning ‘round in the big machine And the walls keep tumbling down in the vivid dream But the wheels are slowing down in the big machine The big machine The clouds forever Crying tears of love for life is dying Summer sun but winters’ chill is all I feel Who can justify This ever-turning tide of madness The hand of fate rotates the ever-slowing wheel The world keeps spinning ‘round in the big machine And the walls keep tumbling down in the vivid dream But the wheels are slowing down in the big machine The big machine

Clue 05:44
CLUE I sit and wait, and I’m petrified of you Times getting harder now and I still haven’t got a clue Looking so hard to find the reasons why I hurt And I can’t believe a word I think of the moments, all the time we had to share Did you take the easy way out, you didn’t seem to care In life you were living, in love you were losing, you seemed so out of touch But you don’t care that much I try and try to free a shattered dream The tortured silence sounding louder than a million screams Maybe there’s a way to save my sanity, there has to be But it’s so damned hard to see Take it away from me, keep it away from me Just stay away from me, it’s too late You’ve made your mistakes If it were simple, we’d be together now We could have made it through the barrier somehow I want to believe you when you say you love me too But I don’t think it’s true Take it away from me, keep it away from me Just stay away from me, it’s too late You’ve made your mistakes “Tell me of your problem” said the voice inside my head “I’ll find the answer to your questions if you like there is no way that I can guide you if you lock them up inside show me your darkness and I’ll help you find the light” and the voice said “take it away, just keep it away from me take it away, just keep it away from me take it away, just keep it away from me take it away, just keep it away” and the voice said “take it away” now it’s all over, now it’s all said and done I’ve counted my alternatives and you’re not the only one Looking so hard to find the fire through the flames Well it helps to ease the pain Take it away from me, keep it away from me Just stay away from me, it’s too late You’ve made your mistakes

Frontline 05:31
FRONTLINE An accidental man – a badge of glory, Soldier of fortune – twelfth mile of history, Recalled to the frontline – place of discovery, Only time will tell of misplaced chivalry Bayonettes gleaming – still standing tall, As you watch all your friends fall, Kings and lords keep marking time, Soldier of fortune stands in line, Reward the command, Fight the battle, Men to chase – the sabre to rattle Reward the command, Fight the battle, Men to chase – the sabre to rattle Mighty vigilante, doubled in his rage, Soldiers of fortune caught in his cage, Cannons light up the valleys in the dead of night, Conscript stands in awe and shows his might, History tells all in the tapestries, The soldier says “le mort chasing me!” From the battles of Troy to Agincourt, Solider of fortune – death is the score

Year by Year 03:44
YEAR BY YEAR Time is a driver, moving me on Memory’s a driver, trying to return to what went wrong Freeze-frozen pictures in a flashback show Finding an answer to questions past Each time the error seems much bigger than the last How do we change it, how do we grow Remember your childhood People and places no longer here Remember your childhood The moments pass us and roll on year by year Year by year Time is a rival, keeping me down I want to breathe and feel my feet rise off the ground Each day a burden, an unwelcome load I’m a survivor but I won’t say my name I’d much prefer it if I didn’t take the blame It’s not my problem and I don’t want to know Remember your childhood People and places no longer here Remember your childhood The moments pass us and roll on year by year Year by year
