Music and Words by Syd Lane
———————————————————
You For Me
———————————————————
I don’t care
When people stare
They look so mean
It makes me smile
Open up your heart and see
You were meant for me
You were meant for me
You’re meant for me
Do they see that we’re not the same
Is that why they stare
Cause we don’t play their game
Do they see that you belong to me
I know that you belong to me

Simple Pleasures For The Complex
———————————————————
Simple pleasures for the complex
I love being bored
I don’t mind just passing the time away
Simple pleasures for the complex
I love being bored
Never doing anything that pays
Oh there is nothing to drag me down
Oh I love laying ‘round the town
Oh I don’t got money weighing me down
I’m happy
You and me we’ve got a long time to lay in the sun
Handing out flowers to everyone
Nothing good is ever easy except for this love
The love we have for each and everyone
Oh there is nothing to drag me down
Oh I love laying ‘round the town
Oh I don’t got money weighing me down
I’m happy
Simple pleasures for the complex
I love being bored
I don’t mind just passing the time away
Simple pleasures for the complex
I love being bored
Never making money
Never getting paid
———————————————————
This Invert Reality
———————————————————
The moss and the willow tree
The romantic dream of family
It’s all illusion don’t you see
For none of us are really free
From this invert reality
I hold my head it’s not for me
I know who I am but not how to be
I know I’m nice but they say I’m mean
Oh there’s nothing to do anymore
Oh there’s nothing to say anymore
They don’t know
The dream and the fantasy
The things I hold so dear to me
We’re all alone and without peace
Oh will this madness ever cease
In tune with love I hope to be
I long to hold a memory
There’s no one else but you I see
My undivided reverie
Oh there’s nothing to do anymore
It’s all been done
Oh there’s nothing to say anymore
We don’t know

Desire Canticle
———————————————————
“Those who restrain desire, do so because theirs is weak enough to be restrained” - by William Blake
And the years go by without ever finding your love
———————————————————
My Reach Exceeds My Grasp
———————————————————
My reach exceeds my grasp
It’s because I never ask
I do whatever I want
I wouldn’t try to change you
Don’t criticize and cry
I couldn’t explain it
We’ll never know why
I’m the way I am and you’re not
I wouldn’t try to change you
My reach exceeds my grasp
It’s because I never ask
I do whatever I want
I wouldn’t try to change you
Just let me choose
———————————————————
The Moon and The Liar
words written by Jeremiah James
———————————————————
Pluck the stars from the heavens
They’re just lights that one day go out
When your madness ascends
There will be no need to shout
Lift the pen from the paper
Tell the jester he was right
About the moon and the liar
They’re dancing tonight
Lay her down she’s a faker
Her lies are too deep
And in the whites of her eyes
I can feel your cold sleep
———————————————————
I Couldn’t Tell Her
———————————————————
I feel my heartbeat under the water
I couldn’t tell her
I couldn’t tell her what to do
My love
Is it you she’s thinking of
It’s you and it’s me
We’re breaking free from tyranny
I’m seeing stars whenever I kiss you
I couldn’t tell him
I couldn’t tell him what to do
My love
Is it me he’s thinking of
———————————————————
I Died For Beauty
———————————————————
I’m sick of all the ones who say
Your voice is louder everyday
A louder voice does not equate
Confidence or strength innate
I died for beauty
I died and I won’t come back
I died for beauty
I died, I died
Fuck your words I can’t relate
To what you don’t appreciate
I am me and you’re still you
Tall poppy syndrome gleaming through
I died for beauty
I died and I won’t come back
I died for beauty
I died, I died
———————————————————
Their World of Fear
words by Syd Lane and Jeremiah James
———————————————————
In their world of fear it gets darker every year
And they’re trying to keep us from the light
But the truth will shine from an open loving mind
An unrestrained beautiful delight
Delight
In their world of fear it gets darker every year
And they’re trying to keep us from the light
One day they will know that their greed won’t let them go
From their never ending night
The night
with no moon
that’s their night
And the wind that blows through the trees lets me know
We are more than our money and our time
Though it’s hard to let go and to feel the flow
Of rhythm songs and rhyme
Rhyme
It’s all that matters to me
Is songs and rhyme
———————————————————
Love Far Away
———————————————————
My love is far away
I don’t know anymore
What this living is for
Oh yeah
Is this demon here to stay
Did it come through me
Is it that plain to see
Oh yeah
I wish I didn’t feel the cold that day
I can remember how his touch graced my skin
My love is far away
Will I ever be his
Will I taste one last kiss
Oh yeah
My love is far away
I don’t know anymore
What this living is for
Oh yeah
How could God repay his child with such pain
