My Daddy taught me how to dance and Mumma how to swing
But only through my solitude did I learn how to sing
And through the years I'd come of age and meet you on the stage
The drumbeat to the back of me I never could let fade
The boy becoming man I see, the never ending noise
Desperation, misery, he played with them like toys
Moments of a fleeting kind would leave him in a daze
Tones push back the mist, he finds clairvoyance through the haze
You're home free, no silence in sanctuary
You're home free, through the tones that sound beside me
The tunes I've come to know so well and hold between my ears
That even through my darkest hours would send off all my fears
A longer road I'd never wish for anything but this
The tune that rocks, the bass on top now dance away the bliss
You're home free, no silence in sanctuary
You're home free, through the tones that sound beside me
Until we breakdown
You're home free, no silence in sanctuary
You're home free, through the tones that sound beside me
You're home free, no silence in sanctuary
You're home free, through the tones that sound beside me

The Forest

You'll be sent to the forest as a slave
Where mind and body misbehave
Deprived of innocence you crave.
Your knees will bend to the crack of a whip
You'll set your mind but it won't stick
Prepare yourself to soon submit.
You're trying oh so hard, to fix your coarsing veins
But then the virus came, and with it the migraine
You dont know where to start, you've never felt the same
A jury of your peers, have found you guilty soul
You'll be sent to the forest as a slave
Where mind and body misbehave
Deprived of innocence you crave.
Your knees will bend to the crack of a whip
You'll set your mind but it won't stick
Prepare yourself to soon submit.
You drag the ball and chain, you're shuffling ahead
Your muscles ache all day, as if they're made of lead
Afflicted by a blood sucking parasite
A vampire, that's bitten me, yeah!
You'll be sent to the forest as a slave
Where mind and body misbehave
Deprived of innocence you crave.
Your knees will bend to the crack of a whip
You'll set your mind but it won't stick
Prepare yourself to soon submit.
Which ways left and which ways right
This blaze I'm in is out of sight
Noone can relinquish me of blight.
The leaves are green and razor sharp
Harmonic winds ring like a harp
Months between the finish and the start
The finish and the start.

Day of the Triffids

Alright! Policeman, policeman, what are you doing
Tryin'a put me in jail, and leave me in ruin
Policeman, policeman, why do you cry?
Is it jealousy reaping 'cos ya can't get high?
Policeman, policeman, how do you feel?
When little boys are thrown in jail no chance of appeal?
Policeman, policeman, just save me from fun
It's day of the triffids so you'd better run, yeah!
Policeman, policeman, five leaves you can't have
You take them from everyone but you don't feel bad
Policeman, policeman unsheathe your gun
You point it at me cos I'm, having fun
Policeman, policeman just save me from pain
I don't need saving from the herb plane
Policeman, policeman just save me from fun
It's day of the triffids so you'd better run
Policeman, policeman, it gets so cold
When you try to find possessions that I do not hold
Policeman, policeman, is it so wrong?
Is it breaking the law just to sing this song?
Policeman, policeman, the herbs don't bite
But if you take them from us then we just might
Policeman, policeman, just save me from fun
It's day of the triffids so you'd better run, yeah!
You better run alright
You better run, you better run and run, far away!
Policeman yeah
Policeman yeah
Policeman yeah!
Policeman, policeman, alright yeah!

Breeze

You feel so tall and by yourself
Don't get along with no one else
Feel your crown it hurts your head.
You've tried to stop this feeling blue
There isn't much that you can do
Never listened to what your mother said.
A breeze is sweeping, behind your eyes
There's no escaping this, it's here for life
So take these pills, and hope they make you happy.
Looking back to change a few things
And time heals would but not everything
Never listened to what your doctor said.
You feel so you, so much to do
Only feel sixteen but turning twenty two
Lay to rest child, and go to bed.
A breeze is sweeping, behind your eyes
There's no escaping this, it's here for life
So take these pills, and hope they make you happy.
When all you do is fail
And no one knows you're unwell
And you cannot explain
How pills can help to ease the pain, yeah!
A breeze is sweeping, behind your eyes
There's no escaping this, it's here for life
So take these pills, and hope they make you happy. Yeah!
