love the way you move

People moving to the sound

There is thunder on the airwaves

And then I see you through the crowd

And I'm wondering where you must have parked your cloud


Seems like heaven is missing an angel

And the demons are circling round

Rolling like an oddball eightball

Swaying like a tree, doing things to me

You're a mystery that I need to solve

I'm firmly resolved to find the key


And girl

I just love the way you move me

Yeah girl

I just love the way you move


This is it, there's nothing else

What you get is what you see

See I'm wearing everything I own

But I'm rich inside like landed gentry


So let's take this gently

Cooling as the summer sun fades away

Rolling like an oddball eightball

Bumping off the baize, I can feel the bass

Pumping through my veins hitting up my brain

It’s the best kind of pain in the world


And girl

I just love the way you move me

Yeah girl

I just love the way you move


You know how to hypnotise

You have my complete attention

You're a sight for tired eyes

You're enough to stop a freight train

I could watch you for a week

Stuck on repeat, yeah, again and again and again


And I don't even know your name

But I'm hoping to set that straight

Rolling like an oddball eightball

Feeding off the bass, moving like a snake

Shaking like a tree in a thunder storm

And I know this is what I've been waiting for

And I know you are what I've been looking for


And girl

I just love the way you move me

Yeah girl

I just love the way you move

I just love the way you move

I just love the way you move

High in the sky a plane passes by a machine of 

War nothing strange we've seen them before if we only 

Knew the secret it is keeping

Deadly cargo falling to the earth and


Fire in the sky an Unholy light then we hear the

Roar of the wind that spreads from the site of atomic

Detonation, desolation

Hell on earth a violent conflagration 


Burning all that stand before it

Vaporising every living thing and


Down in the deep they wake from their sleep as they feel the

Force of the pulse the X Rays course through their bodies

They can track the half life path by

Microsieverts, breadcrumbs bring them to us


They are summoned

By the fire storm seeking warmth and 

Strange nutrition, radiation feeders


Fire in the sky a beacon of sorts, hear the Kaiju

Roar they are rising up to the shore they will come and

Claim dominion, take their kingdom

Cleanse the planet, start a new world order


If we only

Knew the secrets that are hidden

Far below the bluest ocean


This is our apocalypse, it's our apocalypse

This is our apocalypse, it's our apocalypse

This is our apocalypse, it's our apocalypse

This is our apocalypse, it's our apocalypse


freedom

Freedom

Freedom


Well it's been more than a year

No contact, sound of silence

We've been living with the fear

Retreating from the pestilence

We put our lives on hold

We bit the bullet

Just waiting to be told

The storm is over

We've got the all clear

So come outside and breathe the air


Freedom


Can't believe the happiness

I get from dates in the diary

Baby steps but I can see

An end to time in solitary

I'm dreaming of the day

When we're together

Of cider in the sun

A field in Devon

Just might be heaven

And when the Bar Stewards play we'll sing along


Freedom

It's time to put your tanktop on and have fun

Freedom

Go dancing, raise a glass and sing in the sun


Well I've got my fingers crossed

I'm touching wood, I'm touching cloth

But I'm willing to believe

That lady luck is

Stood right behind us

The sun will shine and we'll see Beautiful Days


And I know, its been hard, but we will come together,

Remember, the ones who, fell down and could not make it

So take it, live for them, carry the baton forward

I'll pay my respects by living twice as hard as I did before


(Freedom)


I've missed the way it feels

I've missed the mass communion

Not just music in a field

It's about sharing human vibes

We're all looking for our tribe

To find our people

One more time before I die

Let's kick our shoes off

Let's take the roof off

And if Frank Turner sings


"The Ballad Of Me And My Friends"

There may well be a bit of dust in my eye

Freedom

We all know that there's only one way of life

(And It's your own, your own, your own)

These Days define us they are what it's about

Freedom

Go dancing, raise a glass and sing it out loud

Make it through one more excrutiating day

Screaming on the inside, thinking of the pay 

No-one told us it was going to be this way

No going backward, we're on a one way street

With chains around our feet, keep marching to the beat

Get up, get by, repeat


Deep down in the dungeon, we're hidden from the sun

Sifting through the garbage, we're shifting metric tonnes 

Of useless information while searching for the prize

It dulls our intuition, it closes up our eyes but

Keep pushing through the dark, keep reaching for the stars


Need to find that thing that makes you glad inside

While you're grinding through the gears of daily life

Don't stop looking for the little rays of sunshine

So keep moving forward, there's no way to retreat

But we can choose the street, and we can change the beat

Get up, get on, repeat


We're lost in the forest, we're looking for a sign

But the trees block our vision, they keep us dumb and blind

We're locked in a prison, we're looking for the key

We don't understand that the key is you and me

It's hidden in our hearts, keep reaching for the stars


No-one here is getting out alive

No-one here is getting out alive

No-one here is getting out alive


When you realise that you control the steed

You can change your lifes' direction and it's speed

You can choose your destination and be freed

So keep moving forward, there's no way to retreat

But we can choose the street, and we can change the beat

Get up, get on, repeat


We're born in the gutter, we're born to be enslaved

The odds are against us…....stacked against us

But don't let it stop you, keep pushing at the gates and

When we all push together, we might just take the

Victor's crown, bring the prison down, tear it to the ground

We're reaching for the stars

Keep reaching for the stars


eyes on the prize

From the album Kaiju, 2021


So just think for the blink, of a singular eye

About what you're doing here, the where and the why

Consider all your options, deliberate your path

Do you know where you're heading? You only get one chance

If you coast on the surface, if you float with the tide

It's a kind of existence, but it's not really life

So dive deep in the water, and kick against the flow

You can be your own captain, you can decide where you go


Keep your eyes on the prize

Keep your eyes on the prize


Some people are broken, some people are hurt

Some people spend all their time just scratching a living in the dirt

Some people are damaged, some people in pain

Some people got problems, some people in chains

Is it because they deserve it? Well did they do something wrong?

Is it enough for their fate to be defined just by the place that they were born?

And if you find that you're wealthy, if you're born with a silver spoon and too much bread

Do all you can to lift them up, stretch out your hand instead of standing on their heads


Keep your eyes on the prize

Keep your eyes on the prize


Well we come from nothing, and back we go

A small crescendo, diminuendo

We might just make a ripple, a transient wave

A primal scream fading into decay

But don't let that stop you from kicking up a storm

While your heart is beating, while your blood is warm

If you shoot for the heavens, you might reach the sky

You could soar for a moment, all you can do is try


Keep your eyes on the prize

Keep your eyes on the prize

Keep your eyes on the prize

Keep your eyes on the prize


Burn bright as you burn up

Burn bright as you burn up


twenty four

Twenty four; the hours in the day go

By so slow, they creep while I crumble

Wanting more, as day turns to night I'm

Trying hard to look on the bright side


Trapped within these comfortable walls I'm

Stuck and pinned and wishing it all would

Melt away, burn up in the sunlight

Let's return to when things were alright


The darkness will subside, just waiting for the 

Tide to turn, just waiting for the

Tide to turn


Twenty four; but I still see clearly

Tiny hands and holding you near me

Years have passed so fast inbetween I

Pray for time, but time isn't listening


Twenty four; I wish that I could spend

Time with you and give you your present

Strange but true how we take for granted

Simple things until they're supplanted


The good times will return, just waiting for the

Tide to turn, just waiting for the

Tide to turn


Twenty four; well it's just a number

No big deal, you know that I love ya

The good times will return

Gaze into the sky

In the dark and then contemplate

What exactly lies

In the void we refer to as 

Space and how the light

From the stars above reaches our eyes

From a time before

The human race thought about


Smashing atoms,

Creating gluons and

Quarks, we search for the

Dark at the end of the world


Minds from times gone by

Have considered these questions

And slowly piece by piece

They created foundations so

Now we build a ring

To accelerate our understanding

To strip away

The secrets of atoms we 


Break their bonds with

Elemental force, we

Shatter matter and search for the 

Dark at the end of the world


Undergound the hills

Are alive with the sound of the 

Hammer of the Gods

In a whirl it is wielded with

Such control, precision

Destruction that helps us to

See inside creation

To understand where we all came from


So we search

For the spark that created the world

So we search

For the dark at the end of the world

So we search

For the spark that created the world

So we search

For the dark at the end of the world


blink

A shooting star, I swear that

I wasn't drunk or dreaming

An arc of light across the

Dark of night, a here and now thing


Racing through the solar

System burning bright but

Blink you miss it catch it

While you can before it's gone


A fleeting glance, an instant

Suspended in the moment

A single chance so take it

Grab it with both hands don't waste it


Racing through the days and 

Nights no time to think just

Trust your instinct when you

Feel it deep inside, believe it


And if you choose to walk on 

By and close your eyes then that’s okay

Just tell yourself it doesn't 

Matter you are better off this way


Get a grip, get ahead, get a life, get your head

In the game, do or die, make it matter

An arc of light across the

Dark of night, a one time chance thing

Take a trip, take a break, take it all, take the cake

Have a ball, make it count, make it matter

An arc of light across the

Dark of night, a one time chance thing


A shooting star, before me

I had it in my hand

When you feel that the world is full of nothing but despair

When it seems that the dark of night will last a million years

When you're lost and your lonely, when nobody seems to care 

Just remember the good Lord's always in and always there for you


He was tried, he was tested, beat the devil at his wicked game

Lived and died as a mortal just so he could feel our pain and 


Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls


You are there right beside me, got my back when times are hard

All I have to do is let the light in, open up my heart

People call you the Word, Rock of Ages, Alpha and Omega

Legend and Legion, you are Peace you are the One True Saviour


You are all that I need, you anchor me, 

You anchor me, you anchor


Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls (sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS)

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls (sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS)


You are the light in the darkness, you are my Lord and Master

Bait unto the prey, I am trapped, and I am hooked, and I am 

Following your path (Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls)

Following your path (Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls)


Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our Souls, Save Our Souls

Save Our, Save Our (sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS)

Save Our, Save Our Souls (sending out an SOS, sending out an SOS)


left me for dead

© Asbo Slipz 2021

From the album Kaiju, 2021


Curse the day, curse the day that I met you

Curse the way that I still can't forget

All those things you said, going round and round in my head

Can't find a release, well it's like a disease


Like dementia but in reverse, I remember the 

Names, I recall all of the action, when you stuck your knife in and


Left me there for dead


Turn away, turn away I can't stand this

Freak show car crash slow motion deadly kiss

Love is a butterfly armed to the eye teeth, with spite in its' cold heart and psychotic tendencies

So don't get in it's way or you'll just have a bad day


And I'm running the footage back, I see all of the 

Frames, I recall all the lost evenings, when you stuck the boot in and


Left me for dead


Well I've tried hard to bury the past in the back of my brain

But it comes flooding back whenever I see your face again

And I know when you smile - they're crocodile teeth and what lurks underneath would just


Gut you - cut you down just as soon as look at you


And so, they say, "What doesn't kill you just makes you stronger!"

That we live to fight, another day, yeah another day

So I'll own those battle scars, wear them with pride, now I know that I'm tougher than you can imagine

And there's always the Schadenfreude


Well you left me for greener pastures, the other side of the fence

It was meant to be oh so easy and I was just loose ends


Well it turns out that life can twist in your grip and turn on you quick

The fairytale ending turns into a nightmare, pretty sure this wasn't part of the script


Well you left me for dead, (dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)

Well you left me for dead, (dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)

Well you left me for dead, (dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)

(Dead endings, death by a thousands cuts)
