Only at Night Only at night, out on the street, Shadows seem to dance, To the sound of the beat, A cigarette glow, shows empty dark eyes, Devoid of emotion, The face never cries, Do you know about them, Do you feel, do you care, Society’s destruction, is waiting out there, The bright flame of youth, is fated tonight, Darkness is burning and claiming the fight, Where do they come from, Where do they go, Away in the shadows, so they don’t show, You know about them, but you never care, Society’s destruction, is waiting out there

THE ROOM AND THE MIRROR I OPEN MY EYES AND GET OUT OF MY BED NOT SURE - WHATS GOING ON, IS IT ALL IN MY HEAD? SO I SLOWLY DRIFT BACK TO SLEEP, CLOSING MY EYES, BUT IT’S SO HARD TO DO, ALL I HEAR ARE DESPERATE CRIES, THERE’S A KNOCK, AND I RUN TO THE DOOR, I SEE THINGS IN MY ROOM, THAT WERE NOT THERE BEFORE, I LOOK IN THE MIRROR, AND SEE A FAMILIAR FACE, A LOOK OF UNCERTAINTY, STARING FROM A DIFFERENT PLACE THE ROOMS GETTING DARKER & ITS HARDER TO SEE, NOW I KNOW I’M THE ONE THAT IS SCREAMING AT ME, IS THIS SOME KIND OF REALITY, AND HAVE THE FANTASIES FLOWN? I’M NOT SURE WHAT THIS MEANS TO ME I REALLY NEED TO GET HOME

Out of the Blue My broken heart healed of pain, On my own, free again, The path ahead seemed straight and true Then out of the blue I met you, I met you You held my gaze, you made me smile, I needed to be in your arms, for a while You understood, you seemed to care, To fall again Should I dare, Should I dare You draw me in and try to fight, But the more that I know, the more that I like You seemed so real, you seemed so true, Out of the blue, I’d fallen for you, I’d fallen for you

I Am a Child 04:01
I Am A Child I’m a child of the universe, and want to play my part Will there be Mother Earth, Left to share my heart, Exploitation, Energy free Wealth & power, they’re worryin’ me I’m a child of the universe, Twixt the sea and sky I live on mother earth, and do not want to die All our Wild Life, energy free Animal Cruelty, is botherin’ me Onlookers look and don’t understand Believers see as far as there hand Chosen are those, who see everything clear Wise are those, who know they are here I’m a child of the universe, You’re killing my heart I live on mother earth, North South poles apart Pollution, Energy free Intelligence, it’s worryin me We are the children of the earth and you must understand We are of the future our lives are in your hands Look into the years ahead all the children cry We are of the future and do not want to die I’m a child of the universe, and I don’t want to die, I live on Mother earth and now, Look to the sky All the children, Energy free Human Kindness, that’s botherin’ me Just one small planet, but we don’t see Universal children, we will be free We will be free We will be free We will be free We will be free Free

Missing Link 05:35
Missing Link Missing Link of this chain I think is in your head You are half your love makes you whole From the beginning you are one soul Time forever lives Her love to you she'll always give Looking for ways so you will find A change of wisdom for the better kind Oh my Love this will happen for us all Preacher Missionary you will see That what you says not supposed to be Take your place behind us all and wait for the fall Then you'll see, the beginning of your end Missing Link of this chain I think is in your head You are half your love makes you whole From the beginning you are one soul Seek and you will find A change for wisdom for the better kind Then you'll know were you came from From around the sun Oh my love this will happen to us all

Evil Woman 03:39
Evil Woman Seasons changing years gone by, She has changed but I don’t know why Sleepless nights keeping me out of bed Gotta do something, gotta start using my head She’s an evil woman now How it happened I don’t know how She’s an evil woman now How it happened I don’t know how It happened so quickly all in a day I was a fool and decided to stay She took control telling me what to do I was helpless like she wanted me too She’s an ………………… Thinks are changing and she’s falling apart The devils left and I’ll be able to start To bring her back to what she used to be Bring her back, back to reality She’s an …………………

No Hope at all So they say we are human, But look at what’s going on, War, Torture and Cruelty, That’s why I’ve written this song, So I’ve written this song, For the few who are happy, There’s many more who are sad, The wrong use of religion, It’s driving me mad, Is it driving you mad? They say we are peaceful, Just look at the news, Blood thirsty obsession, But these are only my views, Are these only my views? Concentrate on the good things, That your soul really feels, Until we come to believe this, There’s no hope at all, There’s no hope at all, Is there no hope at all?

Only at Night Reprise Let’s make it good Let’s make it right Stand up for this planet, Let’s win this fight We know what to do, We know and we care, With some form of guidance There is hope out there
