A Song Rings Out. Celebrate the healing, Far and wide a song rings out. Caught up in the season, Winters whisper, summers shout. Time within spent over, Changes change the mind-set cloud. Voices out loud. A Song Rings Out. Come and chase the moon-hare, Dancing round the twisting tree. Charging down the night-mare, Weeping willow, silver sea. Laughing at the storm-crow, Time and time and round and round. Voices out loud. A Song Rings Out, Far and wide, A Song Rings Out. A Song Rings Out. A Song Rings Out, Far and wide, A Song Rings Out, Far and wide, A Song Rings Out. A Song Rings Out.

Lost Tears 04:56
Who of us has stumbled In the carnival of praise? Simple things guide wonder Through the gardens of our days. All our lives we’re taught to stay where we are. A hunger makes the hungry Spin tall tales to help us grow. Innocence draws comfort From the well of all we know. All our lives we’re taught to stay where we are. All our lives we’re taught to stay where we are. Lost like tears in the rain. Lost tears. Lost like tears in the rain. Lost tears. Lost tears. Will this thirst be quenched with blue skies, Sent to make us see? Should we search for answers, In the kingdom of the free? All our lives we’re taught to stay where we are. All our lives we’re taught to stay where we are. Lost like tears in the rain. Lost tears. Lost like tears in the rain. Lost tears. Lost tears. Lost tears.

Full Circle 04:57
A boat set sail from winter, Through the troubled tides of Spring. She steered a course round Summer, And saw the Autumn leaves blow in. Falling down, falling down, We’ve come full circle. Promises all broken, From our bureaucrats and Kings. Self serving laws re-written, An abandoned Earth she spins. Falling down, falling down, We’ve come full circle. Falling down, falling down, We’ve come full circle. Falling down, falling down, We’ve come full circle. Falling down, falling down, We’ve come full circle. A boat sailed back to Winter, Full of pledges, vows and schemes. She spilled her precious cargo, In the terminal of dreams. We’ve come full circle. Falling down, falling down.

It’s time to confess, accept we were wrong. Time to put right all the harm we have done. Time that all voice were lifted in song. Time to defuse this blue bomb we live on. Stood here for too long, silent and proud. Broken intentions on world weary crowds. Kick start the future, strangle the past, For a bright shiny future, a future to last. Where’s the sense in this, tell me why. Search for help from the sky. There’s no thought to this, no great plan. The ascendance of Man. How will we know how to prosper and thrive? Thrown down by hunger and left to survive. No craving, no famine, no lust, no decay. Just the right to live life on a beautiful day. Shame and shame on your lying eyes. From the ashes we’ll rise. We’ll rise. All our lives, all our lives, All our lives, we’ve been blind. All our lives, all our lives, All our lives, we’ve been blind. Shame and shame on your lying eyes. From the ashes we’ll rise. Shame and shame on your lying eyes. From the ashes we’ll rise.

In her mind she hears voices, They are loving, they are warm. In her dreams she is welcome, She is welcomed by them all. Then she walks from the light, Through this curtain of night. To this world. To this world. In her life she is no one, She is lonely and afraid. Her broken heart filled with sorrow. No tomorrow, no one cares. She drifts through the streets, Dragging cold dirty feet. Empty heart, empty life. No one sees. Everyday brings the same, Hiding pain, hiding shame, And she shoulders the blame. No one cares, In this world.

Forge the future in your hands, Mould it like clay, shape it your way. Write the words into the sand, Hopeful and free, for all to see. Shie the shadows to the four winds. Lift the burden from your hearts. Shake the broken vows of promise, You silent sea of souls lost to the deep. We’re walking with angels, In their eyes. We’re walking with angels. Lies on lies. From ivory towers they cast their spells, Silvery words hiding a curse. Break the token vows of promise, You sorry fleet shattered on the reef. We’re walking with angels, False and feign We’re walking with angels, Lies on lies. We’re walking with angels, In their eyes. We’re walking with angels, We’re walking with angels, We’re walking with angels, Silvered words.

Out of Time 03:38
Can’t you see there’s something wrong? Just think about it. Do you feel we don’t belong? Just think about it. It’s getting stronger everyday. ‘Won’t be much longer’, so they say. They seem just fine. Out of time, out of time. One by one we’re falling. Mother Nature plays the tune, Just think about it. ‘Pack your things and leave us soon!’ Just think about it. Fire and cold call at your door. They don’t want us anymore. They’ll be just fine. Out of time, out of time. One by one under the Sun. One by one we’re falling. We’re Falling.

Can you feel it, something is coming on the west wind? Can you see it, riding the breakers on the edge of the sea? Can you hear it, screaming like thunder through the storm clouds? Can you sense it, smash the defences of your walls of doubt? Can you see the writings on the wall? The Severn Trumpets call us, Can you hear it? Can you feel, the shaking of the World; The waking of The Earth; Oh can you feel it? Ice of winter starting to splinter, in the sunshine. Hands that bind us, rule and divide us; we start to unfreeze. Heavy thunder clouds, lit by wonder in these dark skies. Let the fire fuel their desire, in the heat and flames. Can you hear it? Can you feel it? Can you hear it? Can you hear The Severn Trumpets call? Can you feel it? Can you feel the shaking of The World? Can you hear it? Can you feel the writings on the wall Can you feel it? Can you hear the waking of The Earth?

As the walls are closing in and shadows fall, The air turns raw and cold. The outside world grows silent and drifts far away. All hope fails to hold. Where’s the hand that guides the way, That keeps us safe and true? Where’s the voice that cries alone, That cries out loud ‘I Love You’ ? Do you still remember how it used to be, How sunlight kissed the frost? Now steel-grey skies drive choking rain, Fall with acid shame upon us. And stars align through poison air, Pale words they share, faint promise. Light the fire. Those damn self-deceivers. Light the fire. Throw down your reason. Where’s the voice that cries alone, That cries out loud ‘I Love You’ ? Light the fire. Light the fire. Light the fire. Truth spent and broken. We lost ourselves in time. We lost ourselves in time.
10.
Truth walks on water, The Sea Of Broken Vows, Seducing hope’s new disguise. Calm stirs up reason. Faith spits out at time. Belief sails soft for the shore. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. No crumb of comfort, Fell from sunless eyes. Hold hands and pray for the storm. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. One day soon we shall fly. One day soon we’ll take flight. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.

A Jester roused the King and Queen, From a thousand nights of troubled dreams, Then he waltzed around the outskirts of his plan. He told the gathered far and wide, He’d be their captain and their guide. His song rang out with trumpets loud and clear. And all was quiet, all was still, He marched his men towards the hills, Where they came upon a proud, defiant town. They razed the buildings of this town. In name of Country, King and Crown. A quiet peace, a peace knelt on the ground. The Jester paid the marching band, To pipe their music through the land. The waving flags were strewn across the sky. And To this day a peace exists, The muffled sounds of clenching fists. A silence broken by a hollow glance. And all these days and all these nights. And all these days and all these nights. And all these days and all these nights. And all these days and all these nights. All for the want of a nail. The message was lost. The battle was lost. A Kingdom was torn. All for the want of a nail. A song rings out. A song rings out.
