THE CHASE
CHASING POWER, CHASING DREAMS, CHASING APPRECIATION
CHASING RECORDS, CHASING EMOTIONS, AS IF THERE WERE NO TOMORROW
SLOWING DOWN WITH OPEN EYES NOTICING THE HIDDEN PARTS
ALL VALUES WILL APPEAR AS THE DETAILS COME CLEAR,
I HAVE NO CLUE – ALL DONE, NO SUMMITS LEFT TO CLIMB
I HAVE NO CLUE – CAN WE BE SATISFIED?
I HAVE NO CLUE – ALWAYS ON THE RUN, BURNING THROUH OUR TIMES
I HAVE NO CLUE – CAN’T WE TAKE A BREAK? WHAT IS LEFT UNSEEN?
TRIED IT, SEEN IT, MOVE ON – I HAVE NO CLUE

DISAPPOINTMENT
FOR SIX LONG YEARS I THOUGHT IT’S ALL OK – AT LEAST IT SEEMED
NOTHING SHOWED THINGS WOULD CHANGE – WEREN’T ABOUT TO CHANGE
WE HAD GOOD TIMES AND WHEN THERE WERE CLOUDS WE BLEW THEM AWAY
BUT WHEN WHISPERS CAME AROUND SUDDENLY YOU CHANGED YOUR MIND
I MADE SOME EFFORTS BUT LIES REACHED TOO FAR
YOU WENT AWAY WITH THE TIDE I GOT STUCK, WAS SURPRISED
BUT I HAVE TO MOVE ON CAUSE IT’S ME WHO STILL CAN LOOK YOU IN THE EYE
I’LL PASS YOU BY NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY

RELIEF
PATIENCE RUNS OUT, HARDER TO HOLD THE LINES
TENSION TAKES US OVER, PLACING ANGER IN CONTROL
NEED TO FIND RELEIF
AGGRESSION ARISING, SHEER VIOLENCE TO FACE
HOW COULD WE STOP IT? CAN WE MAKE A CHANGE?
NEED TO FIND RELEIF
BREAKING AWAY FROM WHAT THE WORLD DICTATES
ELIMINATE WHAT IS FORCED ON US
FOCUSING ON VALUES ONCE OWNED
SHOULD BE THE TOOL TO TAKE BACK CONTROL
NEED TO FIND RELEIF

MEASURE
IT’S ALL OURS, WE ALL DID OUR PART
WHAT WORTHS THE MOST, CAN’T BE BOUGHT OR SOLD
CAN’T BE TAKEN AWAY, IT’S SOMETHING WE GAINED
IT’S IN OUR HEARTS, AND THERE IT WILL REMAIN
MORE THAN A THING TO HOLD IN YOUR HAND, FOR SOME IT’S HARD TO UNDERSTAND
MORE THAN THE INK IN YOUR SKIN, MORE THAN THE PLACES YOU’VE BEEN
PASSION IS NOT AVAILABLE AT STORES, YOU SHOULD LOOK FOR SOMETHING MORE
THERE’S ON COLOUR TO DESCRCIBE, NO SHEETS CAN EVALUATE
PAPER CUTS DON’T MEAN A THING, IT’S EVERLASTING
IT WAS JUST SWEAT ON THE WALLS, SOME KIDS PILED UP ON THE FLOOR
STORIES OF SOME TEETH GOT LOST, SCREAMING TIL THERE’S NO MORE VOICE
IT STILL MEANS A LOT

For The Bored Ones

FOR THE BORED ONES
GO FOR IT, DO IT ALONE, OR PLAY IN A TEAM
MENTAL STERNGHT IS GIVEN, IT WILL NOT DISAPPEAR
GOALS ARE ALWAYS SET BY YOU
GO AHEAD AND MAKE IT THROUGH
PERSEVERANCE, ALL THE TOUGH TIMES, RELEASED ON THE FINISH LINE
THE TRAININGS, THE SWEAT AND ALL THE BEAT, NEVER GIVE UP, NO WAY TO CHEAT
PERSONALITY GETS SO STRONG,
AND WE ALL, WE ALL LOVE SPORTS
HANGING OUT WITH FRIENDS OR DOING AT AS A PRO
RESULT IS THE SAME, NO ONE WILL BE BORED
PERSONLAITY GETS SO STRONG,
AND WE ALL, WE ALL LOVE SPORTS

LIGHTHOUSE
WE’VE SEEN GREAT STORMS, WHERE COMPLETE FLEETS WERE DESTROYED
SHIPWRECKED DISAPPEARED, SURVIVORS TUCKERED OUT
THEN THERE WAS SHALLOW WATER, JUST A FEW WERE INVOLVED
NOTHING NEW ON THE HORIZON, HOPELESS TO RECOVER
AND AT TIMES OF BRIGHT SUNSHINE, MASS GATHERED ALL AROUND
NUMBERS ARE FLOURSIHING, FORECAST IS PROMISING
WE WON’T TURN THE TIDE, BUT WE STAND ON SOLID GROUND
SOIL IS SWEPT TIME TO TIME, BUT THE WAVES WON’T WASH AWAY OUR ROCKS
IT’S THE LIGHTHOUSE TO BE THE MORNING STAR, TO BE IN CHARGE ALL THE TIME
TO STAND AGAINST ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, HOLDING BACK THE ELEMENTS
WE WON’T TURN THE TIDE, BUT WE STAND ON SOLID GROUND
