*** Fear The River ***

I took a walk last night
confusion ruled my mind
like when you wake up in a dream
nothing seemed to rhyme
sometimes it's hard to find,
some sense, a clue, a strategy

all my worries
they never felt so strong
'guess it's time to set a course,
and find a thing to head upon
wasting time
has lasted far too long
a drowning man clutches at a straw
but the current can be awful strong

(Chorus):
fear the river
it takes you to the sea
it makes you loose the ground,
the ground under your feet
when the shore
gets slowly out of reach
when the water gets too deep

youth lasts for a while
then gets lost in time
somehow gets lost along the way
I wish that I
had stayed a child
it's sad that one day children stop to play

*** Keep The Fire Burning ***

time - 'feels like running out of time
I'm getting desperate to find
but if I don't, will I regret it

mood - again this weary mood
things won't go the way they should
and tomorrow it won't be any better

when times get rough on you
remember times go by
a feeling of comfort
must be somewhere to find

night - I tossed and turned last night
I couldn't get things of my mind
the ceiling didn't make it any better

thoughts - and doubts keep tossing me
is this the way that it will always be
tired out faith mixed up with sadness

when times get rough on you
remember times go by
a feeling of comfort
must be somewhere to find

as long as you keep the fire burning inside

sometimes - I'm feeling insecure
like this is all and there is nothing more
like this is all and it will last forever

wrong - I'm sure my senses can't be wrong
oh I've been waiting for so long
I've done my time, for me it's now or never

*** Letter In The Mail ***

a sudden loneliness, something incomplete
I couldn't get to sleep last night
too much worries kept me from nice dreams
I really fucked it up this time

it's too late to say I'm sorry
it's too late to show regrets
time is just a one way street
you can't turn it back
it's too late to say I'm sorry
I know that I'm the one to blame
but I feel sad since the moment
when I watched when you walked away

(Chorus):
things you can't recapture
things you can't get back
like a letter in the mail
full of words which you regret

I tried to call you for a thousand times or more
but you didn’t pick up the phone
and left the roses which I put before your door
their colours fade, I feel alone

*** The Street Where I'm Living ***

This is the street where I'm living
I feel there is something in the air
a tension is getting steadily stronger
my senses tell me 'better take care'

This is the street where I'm living
where i was born and played as a child
in this street no one ever bothered
about skin coloured black or white

You may pretend you haven't seen
You may pretend you haven't heard
but on the day they proudly fly their flag
Ooh, you damn well know that people get hurt

There is a voice from the shadow
safe from where it can not be seen
it's inflammatory words hit target
until division takes command of this street

This is The Street Where I'm Living
where i was born and played as a child
This is The Street Where I'm Living
see now how dark clouds gather in the sky

There's a riot, I see fear on the faces
while sirens scream and people run by
the street where I'm living is on TV
'cause there's a house on fire

*** When Feelings Run Too High ***

you loose, you win, you search, you find
you put your stakes a little high
it's like a war where no-one dies
it's like a dream which won't go by
when feelings run to high

all warning signs simply denied
forget what's wrong, don't care what's right
inside the hunger, an empty space
it's like a toy, you've got to play
when feelings run too high

(Chorus:)
now every morning
every day
every single night
I think about you
now every morning
every day
every single night
I think about you

the ice is thin so don't forget
to keep on moving with careful steps
it's like a twister which won't subside
in search for shelter, no place to hide
when feelings run too high
precious moments get lost in time
bruises last just for while
don't want to think, it's not the time
right or wrong, it's not the time
when feelings run too high
