Be long - be long - Better to belong
Be long - be long - Better to belong

Be long - Be long
Be long - Be long

Another frequent flyer
Another tube gone into solid state
A pay and fee supplier
Set out to prove that it is not too late
Just another potential trying
Look around and you might be flying now

All along a secret song was playing in my mind
Like a window to another world
It's hard to leave the storm
when it's still raining deep inside
And your heart is like a whirlwind
Your heart is like a whirlwind
Spinning through the sky

Today's another day
So make it yours, don't wish the time away

You've got your song to sing
So make it happen and break away

The morning brings a new beginning
Don't drag your wheels gotta keep them spinning
Another day you could be winning now

All along a secret song was playing in my mind
Like a window to another world
It's hard to leave the storm
When it's still raining deep inside
And your heart is like a whirlwind
Yeah, your heart is like a whirlwind
Raging through the sky

Far and away, I thought I'd be closer now
The place of knowing is far and away from me
Maybe someday when all the wind dies down
Love will come calling
But it's far and away from me
Now...

Be long - Be long - Better to belong

As the bombs fall to the ground
Lights go out in a far away town
For weeks we've heard only prayers for rain
But the answer is 'fire' - again and again
We're all victims of circumstance
They are just bricks - lives in the balance
Hoops of fire join the dance
Strike by night - don't stand a chance

Climb higher than the morning
Clouds gather without warning
Climb higher than the morning
Winds fly without a warning to the NIGHT

Be long - be long

So many kings - but there's only one crown
In the end the weakest has to back down
He lost his face - now he looks like a clown
On a river of gold - but he's bound to drown
He built his kingdom on deceit and lies
There's this frightening void if you look in his eyes

It's so revolting, either that or you're amused
To see what those objects do out there
From out of boredom you partake
But you're confused
You're not so great as you once thought you were

Climb higher than the morning
Clouds gather without warning
Climb higher than the morning
Winds fly without a warning to the NIGHT

Here - there is a fire
There - deep as desire
Far and away from me
Reach - there in the quiet
Seek - and you will find it
Right where it's said to be

Heart is like a whirlwind
Heart is like a whirlwind

Now that he's gone you can finally find out what went wrong
There's a new deck of cards
But the smell of foul play lingers on
Light as a feather you testify - a blood red tide
Hang out to dry
Right in the middle and you think
You can't stand the heat

You seek the blackness in the white
You see the darkness in the light
You seek the blackness in the white
You see the darkness in the light

All that was decent is void and lost to this world
Seems like all of the glory
Will finally give in and burn
You're on the dark side
But you wait for the warmth of the sun
It all feels so different
When you've lost the touch and you're blind

You seek the blackness in the white
You see the darkness in the light
You seek the blackness in the white
You see the darkness in the light

You seek the blackness in the white
You see the darkness in the light
You seek the blackness in the white
You see the darkness in the light

Where were you when I was losing everything?
And I stood inside the threshing in my mind
Locked inside a whirlwind I cried out in hope
'Cause you said you would not leave me behind

So swing high, swing low
Just get me through to tomorrow
Swing high, swing low
Carry me through Lord, I'm comin' home, yeah

I've been through times
When there was nothing here for me
A child left abandoned on the earth
Laid out on the floor in silent suffering
'Cause there was nowhere left
That I could search

So swing high, swing low
Just get me through to tomorrow
Swing high, swing low
Carry me through Lord, I'm comin'
So swing high, swing low
Just get me through to tomorrow
Swing high, swing low
Carry me through Lord, I'm comin' home

Swing high, swing low

The old man is cutting, killing
You said "hey, just be willing"
Now I'm so far from feelin' fine
Bully!

You said you'd be my anchor
I'm left without an answer
Plagued by this anger in my mind
Bully!

See it doesn't matter what path you take
Or the road you're on
'Cause the flesh is strong
You're gonna have a thorn
When it feels like it's totally worthless anyway
Let the record play!
Let the record play!

Yeah it doesn't matter what path you take
Or the road you're on
'Cause the flesh is strong
You're gonna have a thorn
When it feels like it's totally worthless anyway
Let the record play
Let the record play out all the way!

OH YEAH!
Swing High, swing Low

Why do you want to live your own special way
There's trouble, ok?
Why not take it day by day?
Is it my fault that you've got stars in your eyes?
It ain't no surprise
You're livin' a book of lies

Oh ho ho..
Why don't you turn with the wind?
Fly in a rainbow sky
Oh ho ho..
Why don't you turn with the wind?
Fly in a rainbow sky

There's something special about riding the storm
Fall into norms and building your precious home
Now you may think that you're not built to comply
You'd rather fly high and live in this glorious lie

Oh ho ho..
Do you ask yourself the reasons why?
Oh ho ho..
Why don't you turn with the wind?
Fly in a rainbow sky

Oh ho ho..
So you hold on tight to that big old lie
Oh ho ho..
Why don't you turn with the wind?
Fly in a rainbow sky
Oh ho ho..
Why don't you turn with the wind?
Fly in a rainbow sky
Oh ho ho..
Why don't you turn with the wind?
Fly in a rainbow sky

Summer came, winter's gone
Your sun will set before too long
Everyone's got a secret disguise
You thought you were the Bowie Nazz
Your Howard Roark's a sorry spaz
You rip off even songs you despise
Yeah!

You're deep into the night
Looking for the light

Black is black
And blood is red
The ego is the fountainhead
Here the human race is all wrong
You could be the greatest still
Forget the world and set your will
Only the helpless need to belong
Yeah!

You're deep into the night
Looking for the light
You're deep into the night
Looking for the light

The world we used to know is slowly changing
The things we learned to fear
Keep on rearranging
The upside will fall down
And while we watch, we live we learn
This old world keep on turning
Then burn, burn, burn!

You're on the outside looking in
So you place your bet
But there is no game, there is no winner
Right in the darkest of energies
No remedies
There's no way you can justify this
On and on and on

The world we used to know is getting colder
The madman's on a quest
He's shaking borders
His hand is upon a crown
But when he slip the world is falling down
This world will never learn
Just burn, burn, burn

You're on the outside looking in
So you place your bet
But there is no game, there is no winner
If we could go back and make it right
There's no remedy
There's a cold world and we're getting older

You're in a circle of black & white
Convenient lies
But there's no way that you can fight it
We look at life from the other side
With different eyes
With different eyes

When love lays down
With your feet upon the ground
You can't hide, it's all around
It's who you are!
When the rain, it falls so hard
Like a whirlwind in your heart
But your soul will see the sun
It's who you are

You thought you could be strong
And right those wrongs
But you felt no change
And where those dangers lie
You cut those ties but you felt the same

Calm your restless soul
Then your demons will let go

The Sun comes up today
Let the whole world fade away
The sun comes up today
Let your old world fall away

You left your haunted house
Your fears and doubts
To work it out
The walls you left behind
To cross those lines
Forgotten now

When you take control
Your destiny unfolds

The Sun comes up today
Let the whole world fade away
The sun comes up today
Let your old world fall away

Climb higher than the morning
Clouds gather without warning
Climb higher than the morning
Clouds gather without warning to the night

Love made a way
When there was no way out
When sadness was always
Love made a way for me
There came a day
When I didn't know myself
In broken belonging
Love made a way for me

Blackbird - Blackbird - what have you done?
Under the moon - old smoking gun
Silhouette of thin boys and girls
that disappear into the underworld
Pale moon in the land of loss
Paper thin are the doors of loss

I've been looking for remedies
I have looked for some sympathy
Stillborn in the land of loss
Lost within or without a cross

As she comes and take you away
The night is cold and everlasting
Orchestrator of chaos and dismay
Hollow the halo - and empty the laughter...

When it came it was far worse than expected
For many nights and days and days
So I curled up in my comfortable place
And huddled with my possessions
And wondered what is worth fighting for
When I felt so far away

There in the dark with my solitude
Looking for answers to questions why
Asking myself, what will I become?
Searching for clues that will ease my mind

So I locked the doors
And I turned off all devices
And I seemed to live in metaphors
In oh so many ways
And in the darkest dead of night
I came to a conclusion
There was only one solution
That could help me find a way

There in the dark with my solitude
Finding the answers to questions why
Solving the clues so I understand
Seeing myself and what I've become

Love made a way
When there was no way out
When I was hopeless
Love made a way for me

Reaching for dawn as I start to rise
Bracing myself for the doubt inside
But there's a fire in my soul
And it's burning now
To fight for my life and be homeward bound

Love made a way
When I was broken down
Out in the shadows
And love made a way for me
Far and away
I think I got closer now
I'm making some headway
And it's feelin' alright to me

Be long - Be Long - Better to belong
Be long - Be Long - Better to belong
Move on - Move on - Better to move on
We are ready to move on

See the millions waiting for the sun

Move on Move on - Better to move on
Dig it again - dig it again!

There's a man with a telescope
He's in the trade of 'Peace & Dope'
He's pointing at a house up in the hills
It's brand new times for the mission bell
The word is out - he found the well
Bottle up - bottle up to sell

The night is strangely bright
This cavalcade of convenient lies
Count them under starry skies
There's no way you can hide it

Waltz like a traitor - Mind he's a handsome devil
Once he was the greatest
But now he is doomed forever

There's a man on the telephone
He's in the crowd, but still alone
Seen it all - and he made his call to me

He said 'the world is in distress'
'The politics - it's all a mess'
Before we know he'll put it all to rest

The night is strangely bright
This cavalcade of convenient lies
Count them under starry skies
There's no way you can hide it

Call for a favor - back to the curse of labor
Call for a traitor - rise to the highest level
Cry for a savior - and God he just sent a rebel
He once was the greatest
Now he's a lonesome rebel

Some will say the self is best
The only truth is selfishness
There's nothing more than this flesh and bone
Well I've lived that life and testified
Dwelled among the sons of pride
It only left me cold and alone
Yeah!

Don't sink into the night
Keep looking for the light
Don't sink into the night
Keep looking for the -
Looking for the light

As every storybook must surely start to close
We see the message that they send
But as every one of us alive already knows
The greatest story never ends

Belong, belong, better to belong
Your line in the letter
He's still here when you and I are gone
Love will make it better
Belong, belong, better to belong
Your line in the letter
Love will make it better
Belong, belong, better to belong!

Where were you when I was all but over?
Looking at the wreckage of my life
Was your arm not long enough to grab a hold?
Or were you right there with me all the time?

All along a sacred song was playing in my mind
Like a window to another world
All that matters now is that I feel you deep inside me
When my heart is like a whirlwind
Yeah, when my heart is like a whirlwind
I know it'll be alright

Love made a way
When there was no way out
As I lay dying
Love made a way for me

This is the way
That you must know yourself
Always defining
What you were meant to be

Here - There is a fire
There - Deep as desire
Far beyond what we see
Reach - There in the quiet
Seek - And you will find it
Right where it's said to be

Love made a way
When there was no way out
Open the moment
Your heart it holds the key

Bright - As a new morning
Rush - As the sky soaring
Wide - As the open sea

Free - 'Cause it costs nothing
High - As the sun pouring
Love - Even down to me

After the rain
All that will remain is
LOVE
