Through Space
I see the changing of the stars
Right here from my capsule
You might think that life is long
But it’s here where I belong, floating, floating
Heaven’s here and it will catch me
And what of all the surroundings?
That peaceful land of space
Free falling, mind bending
To live in silent life then journey far beyond
I’m moving so fast yet time never passes
Endless caress of darkness still expands
My thoughts keeping me inside
That’s why I’m never alone
No need to know where I’m going
Well not until I get there
Life beyond, we reach, we see, colourful lights
To live in silent life then journey far beyond
I’m moving so fast yet time never passes
Endless caress of darkness still expands
My thoughts keeping me inside
That’s why I’m never alone
Don’t forget to check its working
My travelling silver ride of a lifetime
I am blessed within this moment
To leave you all behind
Where do I go at the speed of light?
See me in four dimensions
Oh but I’ll leave you my heart
To escape my body where does one start
Suddenly there’s a tiny island
Surrounded by a spark
I think I’m headed that way closer
And I’ve more time than I need to get there
No need for com check I’m too far gone
My systems working anyway
As the darkness hurtles the light
It stays fixed so I know I’m alright
Oh yes I’ll get there
The universe expands beyond my thoughts of arrival
But I’ll be there, oh yes I’ll be there
To live in silent life then journey far beyond
I’m moving so fast yet time never passes
Endless caress of darkness still expands
My thoughts keeping me inside
That’s why I’m never alone….my head is never alone
Landing
I see the hills lie far beneath me
Valleys hiding in my eyes
I ask myself but don’t know why
There’s orange clouds with lilac skies
My Silver Ride that I call ‘time’
I penetrate the layers
Bearing down I see such nature
And creatures know their way as
And to my left my ship is shaking
I gently level plane
Protecting time so it survives
Means I might fly again
Descending further the friction builds
My silver ride now ending
A gentle touch my vehicle falls
The ground politely bending
System check, no more noise, all is good
I’m arriving, arrival
I sit well back and look outside
As I contemplate survival, survival
And to my left my ship is shaking
I gently level plane
Protecting time so it survives
Means I might fly again
Here am I a world so new, a solitary rover
Begin again my life from birth
My time has started over
Started over, started over
Exploration
Beauty I see so many ways
I love all that surrounds me
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
Such glorious sights that I see
Waterfalls, rivers, the light on the sea
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
Everything shared and to my hand
No more worries, cares nor woes
Just me, my time, my home, my land
I’ll build my empire up from the ground
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
Exploration now is my song
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
I don’t wanna hear anything go wrong
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
Mystical mountains pointing to sky
At last it’s me, it’s nature, it’s heaven
A circus of wonder here by my side
Rebirth
Oh it’s all changing fast
Have I got news for you
The weather here is like no other
Such a different hue
I’ll climb a hill and touch the sky
I don’t care if it’s raining
So much fauna my eyes can see
Most of it needs naming
My mind is full of all the wonder
My head is full of all the colour
Who knows about the things that I’ve yet to discover
I see the mountains climbing high
Makes my heart begin to ache
I have everything within my grasp
So I can simply take
I’ve realised my eyes just saw
But now they can really see
So finally I’ve found myself
And what might become of me
My mind is full of all the wonder
My head is full of all the colour
Who knows about the things that I’ve yet to discover
My mind is full of all the wonder
My head is full of all the colour
Who knows about the things that I’ve yet to discover
Discovery
I’m a new man I’ve found eternity
Immortality, that is me
I don’t answer to anyone
In fact I know no one, in fact I know no-one
I’ve shed my skin and found my wings again
And my eyes can see, I think I like me
I don’t answer to anyone
In fact I know no one, in fact I know no-one
But maybe I’m lonely, maybe I’m lonely, yeah
I like what I know, I go where I go
Cos I’m a new man, cos I’m a new man
I know what I like, I know when I’m right
And I’m a new man, yes I’m a new man
Sitting here wondering what the day might bring
I can’t hear a thing, hush now
I still don’t answer to anyone
In fact I know no one, in fact I know no one
In fact I know no one, in fact I know no one
So maybe I’m lonely, ooh maybe I’m lonely, yeah
Realisation
Stepping out stepping through
I question everything I do
Cos I know I’m never sure
I don’t want to want for evermore
Here am I this is it
But do the answers always fit?
I need someone if only sometimes
It’s not enough to have just sunshine
Radiant sky and always light
But what of me most every night?
My thoughts are all up in the air
I realise you’re never there
My friends, my head’s all alone
Maybe it’s time I go back home
Regret
I search around and have no wants
I try to build my confidence
The universe astounds me
And as I wander through this land
My head is in my hands
Ooh, I can dream my life away
Do whatever comes my way
But I regret to say I never saw it end this way
I don’t know what matters
I know I left people behind
And here there are no human kind
Just the sky above me
It all just looks the same
There’s only me to blame
Ooh I can dream my life away
Do whatever comes my way
But I regret to see, that there’s nothing here for me
I don’t know what matters
Have I the things I really need
When all inside is greed
Maybe I’ve mistaken
My life as dead and aching
I wanna go back home
I’m too tired to be alone
I must return in time
And turn my life around
And go back to my future
If I could only see
What is left for me
Ooh I can dream my life away
Do whatever comes my way
But I regret again, this journey’s just insane
I don’t know what matters
Don’t know what matters
Tinkering With Time
You lie in wait your silver skin
A dormant vehicle I crawl within
My habitat for all those years
And now I hope that she still steers
For home-wood bound I plan the task
That we can travel’s all I ask
Is all I ask
I tinker all the switches ready
My journey long my heart is heavy
Are you waiting, will you greet me?
Do I know who waits for me?
When I see, what do I say?
The wires, the spark, the launch, the button
I’ll wait to find who has forgotten
Journey forth towards the heavens
To take me back I’ve learnt my lessons
Ignite the flame, my silver chariot
The Icarus flight is where I’m at
It’s where I’m at
I tinker all the switches ready
My journey long my heart is heavy
Are you waiting, will you greet me?
Do I know who waits for me?
When I see, what do I say?
I’ll see the changing of the stars
Once again from my capsule
I believed that I belonged
In this place but I was wrong
So I’m going, going
I’ve tinkered all the switches ready
A second journey, heart is heavy
Are you waiting, will you greet me?
Then I’ll know who waits for me
Second Journey
Blasting forth the world beneath me
Pure blue flame an arrow you see
40,000 miles per hour
40,000 miles per hour
Tongues of fire begin to shower
Racing high and getting higher
I can only hope to fly her
40,000 miles per hour
Altitude reaching thin
This is where my second journey begins
The altitude is reaching thin
This is where my return home begins, begins
Altitude reaching thin
This is where my second journey begins
The altitude is reaching thin
This is where my return home begins, begins
Level soon and aim towards
That pale blue dot that gives us cause
A speck of sand we travel on
40,000 miles per second
And all that we are, now and then
Life goes on, start again
I’m going home, I learnt a lot
Then I’ll see if I’m forgot
Let’s see if I’m forgotten
Endless sea of dark and light
Occasional flash as time ignite
We drift so long, so deep, so far
But no-one knows quite who we are
No-one knows quite who we are
Now what of this which greets my sight?
Unrecognisable despite
The world once blue and spinning round
Is twisted metal and blackened ground
Is there life though I can’t see?
What has man now grown to be?
My timing has come at a price
The Earth is dead, as cold as ice
The Earth is dead, as cold as ice
As cold as ice
I Once Had It All
I once had it all
But I threw it away
Whilst searching for myself
I never guessed I’d lose someday
But I search myself, I remember times
I can see the past
I long for the days that future has
My love, my days were warm and safe
I once had it all
The days I had were warm and safe
I once had it all
There was I and there was you
I had everything
So I guess I’m just a fool
I had a plan but flew away
I had a thought of escaping, running from myself
I only found I followed
Who are we and what are we to be?
My love, my days were warm and safe
I once had it all
The days I had were warm and safe
I once had it all
I once had it all, I once had it all
I once had it all, I once had it all
We fool ourselves how to be free
We’ve got our mixed emotions, or is it me?
I had it all, had it all, had it all
‘You go through the day knowing nothing’s wrong
Yet for some reason, it doesn’t feel quite right’
Nobody To Guide Me
Here I sit my age forgotten
I’ve returned but I’m alone
The place I knew is old and rotten
My life feels drained but I’m home
My memory fades, I’m overtaken, I have lost all I found
I journeyed hard my future broken
Where’s my time with who I shared
Where are those people who I once cared
Nobody here to guide me, nobody left to care
So here I sit with nowhere to go
My days are feeling longer
Decisions I made saw me grow
But giving in is becoming stronger
Wherever I’ve spent time I’ve spoken but all my words ignored
So here I sit my future broken
Oh, where’s my love and the times we shared?
Why has my past escaped me?
Nobody here to guide me, nobody left to care
Oh, what of it all, why should I care?
Maybe I should just fly away
In fact I know no one, in fact I know no-one….
Fly Again
Here I go again, it’s the same old story
On and on, around and around
I’m that shooting star in the sky, again
On a Silver Ride of a Lifetime
