Birds

Words and music by roddy frame

"hey baby, baby bring your love to me"
Repeats the radio relentlessly
All day i dream a dream where feelings flee
In free formation.
The sweetest sound reflects in saddened eyes
Defies description and identifies
The heart that hungers for the sudden skies
The souls migration.

Chorus:
How sweet to fly
To touch the sky
To feel in the flow
Like the one who glides there.
I feel we flew
We never knew
But to know is to go
When your heart resides there.

I take a winter coat and walk the square
The people gather and the birds they scare
Concrete and clay conspire to cage me there
Among the lost boys.
Down in the streets i see the trees grow bare
Broken and battered in the thinning air
The birds are scattered and my footsteps there
I long for lost joy.

Sunday Blue

"Sunday Blue" Neriah/ Avid

I know you understand
the way I feel
you know it’s true
I know you won’t look back
if you should feel
the way I do
When morning comes
we may have learned
a thing or two

Sunday blue

When nothing goes as planned
it’s so unreal
it’s nothing new
how long will it take
for this to fade
from me and you?
When morning comes
the sun won’t burn
is that untrue?

A Passage In Time

Here we go
Think about the promises that kept you walking wandering in time
Whoa!
Don’t you know they kept you walking kept you wanting
kept you walking everybody!
In time
I keep on thinking the same old thing, but then again what can I say?
I keep on trying to live my life, I keep trying to ?nd a better way!
Well as everyday goes by I’ll try, but I don’t know if I’ll make it through
But I’ll move along and push on until I do
Because everything that you’d tried to build in time
Well that’s everything you’d tried to hide
Well that’s everything that you want to believe
Your motivation puts you where you’ll be
What a way, don’t waste away in time!
Well I’m seeing through the eyes of a modern man that I don’t know
Should I try to ?nd? Could I buy the time? I don’t know
Well stand together, we will forever, gotta bet we’ll be okay
Wide-eyed reminisce, what a blissful good ol’ days
So here we go, through eyes that I don’t know
Will we move along? Time will only show,
because it’s everything that you want to believe
A revelation, ?nd a way to see all those memories are not put up on the side!
When you look around the world and the scenes,
all the means, little things, what it means to you
When suddenly, no warning to mourning,
what you think takes a total different point of view
What it means, little things, all the means,
world scenes turn around and take a look at you
You never know when you go, live it up here we go!
Got a lot more living to do! Hey! In time…
You don’t face tomorrow what a way to waste away in life
You’re taking for granted all the little things you’d never realized
Well I’m 21 today, how many more? How should I know?
Counting down the days here we go!
Because everything that you tried to build in time
Well that’s everything you tried to hide!
Well that’s everything that you want to believe
Your motivation puts you where you’ll be
What a way, don’t waste away in time!
Every little thing you tried to build in time!

Lying Awake

Lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
At age 14 no inhibitions, and I sure as hell did not need your permission
Never looking forward, and I was never looking back, and I’d never known what’s next
But as the days had gone by, both ignorant and blind
New visions of a world started ?lling my eyes!
Tossing and turning, with eyes open wide, that is where I ?nd!
I’m lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
Years go by as we start to see
So many generations torn by poverty and greed
So many whining that their lives are oh so bad
But far better than so many, it’s sad!
Becoming intoxicated by all of the madness
And all of the pain that they’ve been through
Hoping and searching, a world in despair, right outside, no more!
I’m lying awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
There’s just got to some other way, those people are dying today
There’s just got to be some other time, that they are going to ?nd
There’s just got to be some sort of progress, some other way they’re going to know
There’s just got to be another means to an end, here’s to hoping that it will show!
Wake up!
Like some people in our society
And it grows, planted like a seed
So what do we do when it comes down on you
Cries ring out as a chime for awakening
Taking the time to listen up, maybe don’t turn away
Maybe showing interest could show them light of day
(Can’t you see their faces)
Well it’s a pretty ?ne line as community paces
Stepping up to the edge daily different cases
(Oh can’t you see their faces coming around, so many faces,
different places with so many face down)
Third world tragedy, another in store
Another taste of what’s real, can they take anymore?
Lying awake, lost in time with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
Here today, gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows
Awake, lost in time, with no reason to turn around and put it all aside, yeah!
Here today gone tomorrow, while drowning in all of their sorrows!
I’m lying awake!

Light Aircraft On Fire

When you cut your lover´s slack
You´ll get a fucking monster back
Information indiscreet-
It´s just an acrobatic trick
Disintergrates at 2000 feet
Vanishes into mercury
Light aircraft on fire

Tombestone queen victoria
Was an ex wing-walker
Everybody ignored her
Everybody implored her to-
Vainsh in to the radio
Disappear in the waveband slow
Light aircraft on fire

Disintergrate at 2000 feet
Disappear into mercury
There´s a dark premonition an accident will happen
Theres a pre-science preacher in the cabin
Everybody eat your dust
Everybody love your dust
Lifgt aircraft on fire

Rise Up

Rise up and fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
We’ve got to rise up
Over higher mountains
Rise up, rise up, rise up

Everybody’s come a long long way
Such a long way, to be here today
We’re going hard, giving it all
We’ve been knocking on wood with our backs to the walls
We’ve been working every day and night
Waiting for the chance for the day to arrive
And now we’ve all got something to prove
Win or lose, there’s only one thing to do

We’ve got to rise up
And fly like eagles
Rise up through the sky
You’ve got to rise up
Over higher mountains
Rise up, rise up, rise up

Inside the sweat, inside the heat
In each and every heart there’s a pounding beat
To do it wrong, to do it right
Each of us has put up, one hell of a fight
And as we face the final test
All that we can do is to do our best
And as we’re making time stand still
To get to the top you’ve got to give all you’ve got

The Hole In Your Roof

What do the men say
To the women when they lay down at night.
All naked of arms from the old imagined fight?
And how do the women hear?
In kind and in likeness of light -
"In kindness you needn’t and neither do I,
we are both of us capable of flight",
And as if to give proof
She jumped through the hole in the roof.
What did the condemned say
To the blessed when they met on the path?
"O you take the low road and I’ll take the high for a laugh,
(but if I’m laughing now it’s because I’ve a gentle heart)",
And because it was true
He slipped through the hole in the roof.

La la la la,
La la la la la la…
From above your head a thing can be read that you’re thinking…

What the secretaries sing and the CEO’s bark in the bars -

What do the dead say
To the ones who still think they’re alive?
"With your heads all on backwards
You can’t see in front for what near behind you lies"
"Well show us some help then,
Above your head let it flicker the light,
These ones that I’m with
Have not learned to forgive your necessary alibis -
When they made you love money,
And the poor prophet’s stock,
When they poisoned the watersheds
And fashioned our arrowheads
From the deep forbidden rock.

Sleeper

I’m only sleeping (x2)

Woke up this morning going back to bed
Alarm clock ringing in tune with my head
The ………………….. to leave my boredom
…………………. just ‘cos i cannot …………..
……….. tv is my tv
Because the council ………… after me
And when it’s on it’s pictures ………….
I numb to the war in a distant country

I’m only sleeping

So i cover myself …………….. my quilt
My power’s run down and so is my guilt
At times like this i’m at a loss
Drifting in dreams ……………….
…………. my face and i ……. the fact
The dss is on my back
I used to care a lot
Now the world spins before me
These days consist of sleep
……… days ……….. tv

Back and Forth

Today I hear my anger
And it’s screaming at me
Your words attack my senses
And make me scream

Looking back and forth at you
Should I, should I waste my time now
Looking back and forth at you
Should I, should I pay no mind now

Today inside my eyes
I’m clinching my fists
My hate burns inside of me
Inhuman thoughts cloud my mind

Looking back and forth at you
Should I, should I waste my time now
Looking back and forth at you
Should I, should I pay no mind now
