Here in the dark, the shadows, they haunt me,
Here in the shade, oh the bright lights, they blind me Yesterday is gone, time for moving on, Here's a brand new start, gonna base it on my heart, It's another day, I've got to find a better way, Won't you help me? Failing that, If you have to go, It's all up to me, I know I just wanna change my world, But from the inside, I just wanna live my life, And make this place, make this time, For all our lives to be, Respected Here in the cold, light of day, this vision, Paints a different world, a world of the heart, And I'd like to live there I've been on the run, from all the people I've become, I want to shed this skin, and start it all again, I want to draw a line, in the sand for one last time, Will you help me? Failing that, If you have to go, It's all up to me I know I just wanna change my world, But from the inside, I just wanna live my life, With some hope, and to do what's right, I just wanna change this world, And make this place, make this time, For all our lives to be, Respected |

I've known you since you were a girl
When things just didn't work out for you I said don't crack up and see both sides But you kept on blaming the world for everything I tried to tell you that you were in control But you didn't seem to listen to a word I say But I'm never giving up giving up on you (I try to ) Help you see the world in a different way Hey Yeah ? just look at you now Riding on a silver wave That keeps on going Through the sun and through the rain Through the good and the bad times Through the joy and through the pain Hey look at you now See what you've become Now look me in the eye, now and tell me straight Did you find it hard to tell me everything I said things can only get better dear But they won't if you don't lift a finger to help me What's the point in taking this human form If we can't understand the point of living here Who would ever want to live alone Without sharing this world with everyone and everything Just look at you now Riding on a silver wave That keeps on going Through the sun and through the rain Through the good and the bad times Through the joy and through the pain Hey look at you now See what you've become |

Put that finger back to my lips,
Will I taste of sugar or of cold wet stone Hope the shell will break on a paper dinner plate Ooh not a headstone How long does it take to change the man How much sun to melt a frozen life How long will it take for the mask to slip And find a way to mend this broken heart I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you. Push your finger into my ribs Am I made of honey am I made of bone Scrape your nails over my skin To find how many layers I'm wrapped in How long does it take to change the man How much sun to melt a frozen life How long will it take for the mask to slip And find a way to mend this broken heart I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you. shouldn't ever go back to you shouldn't ever go back shouldn't ever go back to you Here's the person, you used to know A strange new alchemy, produces the gold A local warming of a frozen ghost A homeless entity returned to the host. How long does it take to change the man How much sun to melt a frozen life How long will it take for the mask to slip And find a way to mend this broken heart I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, No I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you I've said too much, I've opened up I've spilled my guts, I can't go back, no I won't go back, no I shouldn't ever go back to you shouldn't ever go back to you shouldn't ever go back shouldn't ever go back |

This time, it's different
Be sure, I mean it Can't go on trading on ideas that I just don't own A life with some meaning, a life with some sense I want, to blame you Give you, my power I keep it all on the inside, keep it locked in the dark I keep it all on the inside, keep it locked in the dark People telling me it's not my responsibility But it is my problem and it's my life, my life I must believe the solutions, to the problems, are in my hands Feel the presence of other Love the resistance it presents Different from and outside of me Pushing me to find what is self Slow down, just talk Sit down, right here Must be an answer to the question of birth and death A world with some meaning A world with some peace Inside, it's turbulent, outside, reflects it Hear you knockin' on the inside Hear me breathe answer please Hear you knockin' on the inside Hear you breathe answer me People telling me what they think that I should be Only thing that I can be is myself, myself I must believe in my choices to create value out of everything Feel the presence of other Love the resistance it presents Different from and outside of me Pushing me to find what is self Feel the presence of other Love the resistance it offers Different from and outside of me Pushing me to find what is self This time, it's different I'm sure I mean it Slow down, just listen It's my life, it's my life |

So we're lookin' out on the world and what do we see
Another screen full of horror, another atrocity, What can I do as simple man who wants to make a difference, Wants to do what he can, not just talk about it. Stone drops in a pond, stirs the sediment, sends ripples, to the edge of the world, A teenage boy with a rubber band around his arm, finds a vein and a back road into the dark and stops the pain. Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again A young woman with a deadly belt around her waist, Steps on the bus with no regret for her life and the lives she will take, A leader in the rapture of his absolute right will not connect with a young man wrapped in the flag, in a black bag. Voice raised in a room of silence, conquers fear, takes action, starts the journey, starts the journey Baby born with an open mind and a trusting face has no regard for distinction, says to have hope is to be human Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again Another chance, another day Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again Another chance, another day Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again |

From an ordinary life won't you save me
In this ordinary life don't want it easy Will you wake me from this dream Life on anaesthetic Let me feel the joy and feel the pain Let me really live it No time, no choice Save my heart from the bland Oh feed me colour me Push me through to the place I can make my stand Don't want it easy Rock the boat And shake the tree You got to stir it up sometimes Turn this anger into your passion Just don't tow the line You got to stir it up You got to stir it up sometimes You got to stir it up You got to stir it up sometimes Just don't tow the line Won't be paralyzed by doubt We can make the difference One voice raised against the void Celebrates it's own existence Knock me and I'll just get up again Stronger, wiser The adversary will now become my friend From an ordinary life won't you save me In this ordinary life don't want it easy Rock the boat And shake the tree You got to stir it up sometimes Turn this anger into your passion Just don't tow the line You got to stir it up You got to stir it up sometimes |

New Song
by Howard Jones I've been waiting for so long To come here now and sing this song Don't be fooled by what you see Don't be fooled by what you hear This is a song to all my friends They take the challenge to their hearts Challenging preconceived ideas Saying goodbye to long standing fears Don't crack up Bend your brain See both sides Throw off your mental chains I don't wanna be hip and cool I don't wanna play by the rules Not under the thumb of the cynical few Or laden down by the doom crew |
