Artista Non Grata

One for the money
Two for the show
Three for the Heavens
While we go below
Non Grata
Thou shall not conform
One for the money
Two for the fame
Three for the audience
But that is not our game

Rebel And The Goat

I travel these lands by goat
He talks and carries my load
We may be pretty slow
But that's our way to go
We may look stupid in your eyes
Which comes to me as no surprise
Because you may fail to really see
My goat and I, we are just free
My goat he says to me
Rebellious we must be
He understands my need
We're friends for life indeed
We may sound foolish in your ears
Because I have felt the same for years
But now I'm wiser than the old
My luck with goats is just to hold

Wolf Amongst The Kettle

|
There seems to be
A crow amongst the blackbirds
A future enemy
Just wait and see
He'll feast upon our young ones
With nothing left to be
What hides behind their faces
Isn't always what you see
What drives imagination
Isn't always what's to be
There seems to be
A wolf amongst the ketlle
A future enemy
Just wait and see
He'll feast upon our young ones
With nothing left to be

Alienated
04:06
|
|||
|
You look at me as if I made you cry
You're judging me and I don't even know why
Or is it all conspiracy against people that feel differently?
Am I just your lie?
Alienated
I feel frustrated
Because I don't belong to anyone
Keeping me warm, holding me strong
Alienated
My life just faded
As I lost all touch with the human kind
Nobody ever seemed to mind me
You're avoiding me as if I don't exist
A drop of rain disappearing in the mist
Or is it all conspiracy against people that feel differently?
Am I just your lie?

Invaders
06:47
|
|||
|
Dark is the hour, our people in silence
Fear is upon our bravest of men
What will become of our hopes and desires
When they'll conquer these acres of land?
We smell the flowers, soon in life's decay
We curse the hour you came our way
Doomed is the day, our people left silenced
Death is upon our strongest of men
What will become of our dreams so aspired
When they'll turn buildings to sand?
