Alright now!
Won’t you listen?
When I first met you didn’t realize
I can’t forget you or your surprise
You introduced me to my mind
And left me wanting you and your kind.
I love you. Oh you know it.
My life was empty forever on a down
Until you took me, showed me around
My life is free now, my life is clear
I love you sweet leaf – though you can’t hear.
Come on now – try it out.
Straight people don’t know what you’re about
They put you down and shut you out
You gave to me a new belief
And soon the world will love you sweet leaf
AFTER FOREVER
Have you ever thought about your soul –
can it be saved?
Or perhaps you think that when you’re dead
you just stay in your grave.
Is God just a thought within your head or is
he a part of you?
If Christ just a name that you read in a book
when you were at school?
When you think about death do you lose
your breath or do you keep your cool?
Would you like to see the POP on the end
of a rope – Do you think he’s a fool?
Well I have seen the truth. Yes I have seen
the light and I’ve changed my ways.
And I’ll be prepared when you’re lonely
and scared at the end of our days.
Could it be you’re afraid of what your
friends might say
If they know you believe in God above
They should realize before they criticize
That God is the only way to love.
Is your mind so small that you have to fall
In with the pack wherever they run
Will you still sneer when death is near
And say they may as well worship the sun.
I think it was true it was people like you
that crucified Christ
I think it is sad the opinion you had was the
only one voiced.
Will you be so sure when your day is near
say you don’t believe?
You had the chance but you turned it down
now you can’t retrieve.
Perhaps you’ll think before you say that
God is dead and gone
Open your eyes, just realize that he is the
one.
The only one who can save you now from
all this sin and hate.
Or will you still jeer at all you hear?
Yes! – I think it’s too late.

CHILDREN OF THE GRAVE
Revolution in their minds – the children
start to march
Against the world they have to live in.
Oh! The hate that’s in their hearts.
They’re tired of being pushed around and
told just what to do.
They’ll fight the world until they’ve won
and love comes flowing through.
Children of tomorrow live in the tears that
fall today
Will the sunrise of tomorrow bring in
peace in any way
Must the world live in the shadow of
atomic fear
Can they win the fight for peace or will
they disappear?
So you children of the world listen to what
I say
If you want a better place to live in spread
the words today
Show the world that love is still alive
you must be brave
Or you children of today are children of
the grave.

LORD OF THIS WORLD
You’re searching for you mind don’t know
where to start
Can’t find the key to fit the lock on
your heart
You think you know but you are never
quite sure
Your soul is Ill but you will not find a cure.
Your world was made for you by someone
above
But you choose evil ways instead of love.
You made me master of the world where you
exist
The soul I took from you was not even missed.
Lord of this world
Evil Possessor
Lord of this world
He’s your confessor now!
You think you’re innocent you’ve nothing
to fear
You don’t know me, you say, but isn’t it
clear?
You turn to me in all your worldly greed
and pride.
But will you turn to me when it’s your
turn to die?
SOLITUDE
My name it means nothing
My fortune is less
My future is shrouded in dark wilderness
Sunshine is far away, clouds linger on
Everything I possessed – now they are gone
O where can I go to and what can I do?
Nothing can please me only thoughts are
of you
You just laughed when I begged you to stay
I’ve not stopped crying since you went away
The world is a lonely place – you’re on
your own
Guess I will go home – sit down and moan.
Crying and thinking is all that I do
Memories I have remind me of you
INTO THE VOID
Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the night sky they blast
Through the universe the engines whine
Could it be the end of man and time?
Back on earth the flame of life burns low
Everywhere is misery and woe
Pollution kills the air, the land, the sea
Man prepares to meet his destiny.
Rocket engines burning fuel so fast
Up into the black sky so vast
Burning metal through the atmosphere
Earth remains in worry, hate and fear.
With the hateful battles rages on
Rockets flying to the glowing sun.
Through the empires of eternal void.
Freedom from the final suicide.
Freedom fighters sent out to the sun
Escape from brainwashed minds and pollutions
Leave the earth to all its sin and hate
Find another world where freedom waits.
Past the stars in fields of ancient void
Through the shields of darkness where
they find
Love upon a land a world unknown
Where the sons of freedom make their home
Leave the earth to Satan and his slaves
Leave them to their future in their graves
Make a home where love is there to stay
Peace and happiness in every day
