Why has no-one ever felt me?
Am I a plague?
Won’t anyone say?

It really hasn’t dried up
That well to make the ocean
Look like a puddle

Am I lost in the lie?
Is it pride?
Is that what you’d like to hear?
Did I finally go mad
Out of reach
Made it to the top of the mountain
Upon which to preach?

Why has no-one ever felt me?
Or is that stuff
Just make believe?

Am I too much?
Am I too little?
An atom in a universe
Multi-coloured skittle

To be honest
I know as much as you do
As to why
No-one has ever felt me

I’d say I was like a kite
Blowing up and down
Living inside music
Which has no walls to hold
So where am I going?
What will I do?

I miss the sound of magpies
Singing in the morning
It goes right thru to your bones
I want to fly like those guys
All the way home

This isn’t a place for me
To be alone,
It’s a luxury
Not a home

I’ve got to go home
I’ve got to get on the road
Close my eyes
And listen to the wheels
As they turn and go

Love has come back to the Earth
And I don’t know how long it will stay
Love has come back to the Earth
And I’ve only got a couple of days


There are a hundred stop signs
All shouting me down
But why would I let that stop me
Hey, let them be
If it all blows tomorrow
I’m still planting this tree


The one green bird sitting in a tree
Suppose to be two
Still reaching
Over the houses
Inside the people read books that made them cry
On and on he flies


Hey you, you know what, you’re good enough
Hey you, you know what, you’re more than enough
It’s goes backwards, forwards and all around
Hands in the air, feet on the ground


Firearms in basinets
And prisoners escaping in a straight line
Stories of victory
Throughout time
There are a hundred stop signs
All shouting me down
But why would I let that stop me


Love has come back to the Earth
And I don’t know how long it will stay
Love has come back to the Earth
And I’ve only got a couple of days

Everybody knows the ship is sinking
It’s just that somewhere it isn’t

I'm a black king
And at you
I've got this smoking thing
Dance boy dance
Sing boy sing

The animal looks into my eyes
and says I'm about to die
I say your not mine
The partygoers made a fool of me
One too many times

I did nothing wrong but I did nothing right

I took a taxi
Out to see a woman stripped
Of her clothes
Be gentle she says
I might as well have spat in her eyes

I did nothing wrong but I did nothing right

I thought there were lessons to learn in this world
How to be street smart and savvy
How to walk over dead bodies

It's taken my manhood
Now I'm looking for someone to blame
Like a fountain of pain

Will you be there? She asks
Anytime, I reply
But I've got this war to fight
Waiting for me on the other side
And no amount of running
Is gonna make me cry

I did nothing wrong but I did nothing right

No amount of running
Is gonna make me cry

I did nothing wrong but I did nothing right

We cry for loss
We cry for joy
Because we are human

And every rebel will have his or her day

Of showing how much they love
How much they care
On a word
Yeah!

A Victory
A win
The rain that went and came again
It’s here!

We cry for loss
We cry for joy
Because we are human

And every rebel will have his or her day

Ever reaching for the surface
A heart truly wants to speak out
And every bit of bravery
Stands alone
Unforgotten

For all the years
For all the minutes and hours
For all the debt and monies owed
For all the solid dirt you’ve had to chew

We cry for loss
We cry for joy
Because we are human

And every rebel will have his or her day
