2012/12/21: morcheeba - enjoy the ride

morcheeba - enjoy the ride



"
they shut the gates at sunset
after that you can't get out
you can see the bigger picture
find out what it's all about
you're open to the skyline
you won't want to go back home
in a garden full of angels
you will never be alone

but oh the road is long
the stones that you are walking on
have gone

with the moonlight to guide you
feel the joy of being alive
the day that you stop running
is the day that you arrive

and the night that you got locked in
was the time to decide
stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

if you close the door to your house
don't let anybody in
it's a room that's full of nothing
all that underneath your skin
face against the window
you can watch it fade to grey
but you'll never catch the fickle wind
if you choose to stay

but oh the road is long
the stones that you are walking on
have gone

with the moonlight to guide you
feel the joy of being alive
the day that you stop running
is the day that you arrive

and the night that you got locked in
was the time to decide
stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

with the moonlight to guide you
feel the joy of being alive
the day that you stop running
is the day that you arrive

and the night that you got locked in
was the time to decide
stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

with the moonlight to guide you
feel the joy of being alive
the day that you stop running
is the day that you arrive

and the night that you got locked in
was the time to decide
stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

stop chasing shadows
just enjoy the ride

2012/12/07: dead can dance - amnesia

dead can dance - amnesia



"
saw the demonstration
on remembrance day
lest we forget the lesson
enshrined in funeral clay
history is never written
by those who've lost
the defeated must bear witness to
our collective memory loss

with every generation comes
another memory lapse
see the demonstrations of
failing to learn from our past
we live in the dreamtime
nothing seems to last
can you really plan a future
when you no longer have a past

memories fall from the trees
amnesia
memories like autumn leaves

if we are subject to
empirical minds
i wonder what lies beyond
our memory's confines
if memory is the true sum
of who we are
may your children know the truth
and shine like the brightest star

memories, help me see
amnesia
memories, set me free

all my love and all my kisses

sweet mnemosyne
