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
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

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; 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

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

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)
