Turbulent Flow when the war is over carry me back home upon your shoulders when the war is over i will carry you home and if you brave the water i will carry you back home upon my shoulder if you brave the water i will carry you home and when the wind blows i will be a shelter cover you from the cold and when the sun goes pull you from the shadows never leave your older heart alone when the war is over carry me back home upon your shoulder when the war is over i will carry you home and if you fail and falter i will carry you back home up my shoulder if you fail and falter i will carry you home and when the storm grows i will calm the quarrel feather you from the foe and where the road goes see you on your travels never leave your younger heart alone

The Alms of Harvest mourning was taken from us we never got to grieve we moved on the guns still pounding for the distance we made our leave can’t go back nothing’s as it was can’t go back again nothing’s as it was winter season of our sadness empty fields and bare trees we belong in the alms of harvest and in the homeland of our families can’t go back nothing’s as it was can’t go back again nothing’s as it was where did they go where did they go were the days of love a lie a lie where did they go where did they go were the days of love a lie was it always this way can’t we ever break from change it’s pulling us from the want to stay the same it’s pulling us from the want to stay the same can’t go back nothing’s as it was can’t go back again nothing’s as it was can’t go back nothing’s as it was can’t go back again nothing’s as it was

Construction 02:59
Construction time is a soldier marching along from younger to older from the weak to strong luck be a lady with offers to show when you’re dry as the navy and you’re high but your self-esteem is low tear it down build it up again tear it down and build it up again tear it down build it up again tear it down and build it up again sharp as a shoulder and soft as a yawn dumb as boulder tough as a funeral song lie with the lazy and rise with the sun cry like the crazy and laugh when the working day is done tear it down build it up again tear it down and build it up again tear it down build it up again tear it down and build it up again

Good Soldier 04:39
Good Soldier hey there mister brother don’t you know the smell of victory is sweeter with a bloody nose armed and ready should we disagree the cage of freedom we all become the enemy we own hey don’t you know it’s real too real hey don’t you like the way it feels take it slow it’s on the heal though you may not like the way it goes but it’s all we know it’s all we know hey there sister darling don’t you know the space of history will turn the lens a shade of rose moving pictures of our memory faded heroes will only lead the armies of the old hey don’t you know it’s reel to reel hey don’t you like the way it feels we’re playing roles with scenes to steal so sit right back enjoy the show cause it’s all we know it’s all we know it’s all we know it’s all we know

October Surprise when the chips are down and your feet are on the floor the cards are on the table and the heavy’s at the door will you let it ride feed your fortunes to the flame will the odds be in your favour are you the player or the game loose in revolution the wheel is in control spinning an illusion it’s a wager on your soul you better, make it count boy you better, make it count boy hey where are you coming from giving voices to the voiceless noises to the noiseless hey hey where are you coming from giving voices to the voiceless choices to the choiceless when the ship goes down and the pirates on the shore the lifeboat’s drifting empty and the wind and sea’s at war will you take your bow pray the final frame burning down the temple into the ashes of a name it’s a deal of desperation the taming of the troll surrender to temptation to fill the empty hole you better make it count boy you better make it count boy hey where are you coming from giving voices to the voiceless choices to the choiceless hey hey where are you coming from giving voices to the voiceless noises to the noiseless hey where are you coming from giving voices to the voiceless choices to the choiceless hey hey where are you coming from giving voices to the voiceless noises to the noiseless choices to the choiceless noises to the noiseless you better make it count boy you better make it count boy

The Lesser Crime a painted face along the roadside fathers of the revolution the strangest place that walks a fine line between a mess and a solution it stands tall the writing on the walls of yesterday what if loving was the key to our survival what if loving was the key what if loving was the key to our survival what if loving was the key in the aging waste where the soul dies the victim finds retribution the guilty pays for the lesser crime and spends a life of institution the rebel call is in the shopping malls and on replay what if loving was the key to our survival what if loving was the key what if loving was the key to our survival what if loving was the key what if love
