Guthrie Govan

It crawls inside you
Like a strange disease
One time the giver
Next time the thief
I know what you know
So I won't let this go

You choose your brother
If he looks the same
You dirty white boy
It's all for gain
But I know what you know
So I won't let this go

What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
Why can't we embrace?
I've got to know
I want to know

The start of reason
Is the end of hate
Progressive healing
For the corporate
But I know what you know
So I won't let this go

What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
Why can't we embrace?
I've got to know
What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
It's a big disgrace
I've got to know
I want to know

There's a black Siberian
Look a white guy in the sun
Miles away from where the quest begun

From the ice to the sand
Nations moved across the land
Ever since time designed the man

Someday to return
To the place of my birth

I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home

Firewater in the blood
Took away the livelihood
Giving thanks every single year

Who the hell
Owns this land?
Is it God or is it man?
With the blood we draw the line again

I'm called to return
To the place of my birth

I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home
I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home

They put away the DDT now
But gave metal to the sea
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day

The only eagle, only tree
Within a desert that was green
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day

Midnight
Draws ever near
Daylight
Is fading so fast
It's so close to midnight
Midnight

The melting ice will fuel the sea
By burning gold from ancient tree
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day

This is progress, this is sin
Injecting poison in her skin
A hundred years can't wait
A hundred years can't wait another day

Midnight
Draws ever near
Daylight
Is fading so fast
It's so close to midnight
Midnight

So scared of the dark
Frightened now to close heavy eyes
Escape this dream
Haunts my every cell

Whenever I sleep
I wake into a world
After the war
Cities turned to sand

We live underground
Ever since the end of the fall
Nations erased
Programmed 20 years ago

I'm alive

Blue Moon Monday
Blue Moon Monday
I can't believe the scene
Some day, some day
So safe within my arms
One day, one way
We will return again
Blue Moon Monday

Again I awake
Into a perfect world
The sun always shines
Here I feel so safe

I'm living two lives
The darkness and the light
Heaven and Hell
I don't wanna die

Don't let me sleep
Why can't just you hear what I say?
Which is the dream
Now I don't understand

Am I alive?

Blue Moon Monday
Blue Moon Monday
I can't believe the scene
Some day, some day
So safe within my arms
One day, one way
We will return again
Blue Moon Monday

Shake the hand of time
With the builders of stone
Are you recognized?
You're not going home

Have to find a hideaway
So turn up the neighbors
The eagle is listening today

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation

No longer have a name
A number will do
Cutting the wires of doom
'Cos they're watching you

Raging in thought
Mouthless, the millions obey
So call off your dogs
You preachers of what we can say

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation
In a silent nation
We must change what has been done
It's a travesty
Silent nation

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
In a silent?

I've been hearing voices
Voices in my head
Can't escape the noises
Lying in my bed

The winter nights grow colder
The darkness falls too soon
I will hide till morning
How silent is this moon?

Just one look and I will find
Someone else on the other side
A trick of light or the darker mind
Ghost in the mirror

And as the dawn is waking
The shadows burn away
The sun reborn the savior
The safety of the day

Just one look and I will find
Someone else on the other side
A trick of light or the darker mind
Ghost in the mirror

The darkness calls me
The shadows fool me
Is it safe on the other side?
Is this my future?
If it's a dream why can't I wake?

Just one look and I will find
Someone else on the other side
A trick of light or the darker mind
Ghost in the mirror

Kelly stands by the water
With a gun in her hand
She won't believe in the future
In a world made by man

There's nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide
With so much to say and no time

Have we gone too far?
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away

Joseph stands in the desert
With a gun in his hand
Brother still killing brother
Cold within this eastern land

There's nowhere to run
There's nowhere to hide
With so much to do and no time

Have we gone too far?
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away

Gone too far
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away

There must be some other way
A hundred years from green to grey
Close my eyes I'm safe today
Blindly fade away

Gone too far
In a world so scarred
Have we gone too far?
Dream away
Dream away

So
Do you believe?
The truth
Of who we are

Everyone must kneel
Everyone must bow
No matter how you feel
In the sacred hour

And the sun don't shine
Cos the moon won't fall
And the sun won't shine
Is there light at all?
Its darkness day

Ghost
I feel it to the bone
Enough
The messages in stone

Now the day has come
Everyone will see
A new age has begun
For eternity

And the sun don't shine
Cos the moon won't fall
And the sun won't shine
Is there light at all?
Its darkness day

He often wondered where he's from
The Holy Grail, the bloodline son
In his veins the answer comes
The Promised Land, Parisian

We sail today
Into the sun
To the place where life begun
From the sea
Into the soul
Tell Mother Earth to conquer all

Their temple stones will point the way
They kept their secret to the grave
A final journey he must run
The Promised Land, Parisian

We sail today
Into the sun
To the place where life begun
From the sea
Into the soul
Tell Mother Earth to conquer all

Rise (Japanese Release)
(Payne/Downes)

Read in the papers
See on the screen
Oppressive behavior
A foreign regime

That don't happen here
That can't happen here

Rise
Legion of hope
Rise
Don't give in
Land of the sun
To where West was won
Rise
To the future

Political stranger
Under attack

Forever in danger
For stating a fact

So don't you speak your mind
You may lose you life

Rise
Legion of hope
Rise
Don't give in
Land of the sun
To where West was won
Rise
To the future
