SUPERSEDE
Drums then 4 + 4 measures
There is a journey you can take
but few ever get there
Travelling the limitless
A single step can start
A trip inside your mind
Your chattels fall aside
You swear allegiance to none
Trusting what will be will be
Chorus One
Dropping the masks of life
Shedding the skin of fear
You become eternity
and all becomes so clear
We must believe
We are the universe
We are the stars
and every part of this earth
8 measures
We Supersede
Above the heavens and hells
We’re gonna be
Set free of these spells
8 measures
It’s time to come alive
Give away your things and fly
See yourself as infinity
Don’t need to answer why
Desert sands can blind ya
Sea of fury bind ya
Life’s a swamps of snakes
Waiting for you to break
Dropping the masks of life
Shedding the skin of fear
You become eternity
and all becomes so clear
8 measures ya on 8th
We must believe
We are the universe
We are the stars
and every part of this earth
We supersede
Above the heavens and hells
We’re gonna be
Set free of these spells
8 measures ya on 8th
We must believe
We are the universe
We are the stars
and every part of this earth
We must believe
We are the universe
We are the stars
and every part of this earth
We supersede
We supersede
We must believe
that we supersede
We supersede
We supersede
We supersede
We supersede

IF TIME WE COULD DEFY
8 measures
Time looms it is our phantom
Clock moves with no delay
Visions of the other side
Too often led astray
Wars, nature and disease
Life’s fragile and we won’t last
Plunging in the endless void
We are thrown from the cast
Chorus
A deathless life would it be any better
If time we could defy
Do we really want to live forever?
We didn’t think so, we wouldn’t even want,
want to know the day.
4 measures
Like those who stood before us
Death wails at the door
A threshold we avoid
As it’s this life we adore
We must stand alone
We all have our destiny
Loners out on loan
When is the Reaper coming for me?
Chorus
8 measures lead + 4 measures
Yet life lies within us
Could be taken in a breath
An underlying motivation
Mortality we address
Mysteries and tales together
Must simply be alive
Grab the tiger by the tail
Will arrive when we arrive
Chorus
4 measures out
Lyrics by MH
WHERE DOES TIME GO
8 measures
Where does time go?
Years are drifting by
Friends are growing older
The elders age and die
Where does time go?
The seasons slip away
Like a flash in the night
Memories fade to grey
4 measures
Where did that time go?
I barely got a start
Alone with a lost soul
As someone broke my heart
8 measures
Where does time go?
Caught up in our lives
Going our separate ways
Lost friendships and broken ties
Where does time go?
The months disappear
Revolving around the sun
Deciding why we’re here
4 measures
Chorus
8 measures ya on 8th…
Where does time go?
Caught up in our lives
Going our separate ways
Lost friendships and broken ties
Where does time go?
The seasons slip away
Like a flash in the night
Memories fade to grey
Where did that time go?
I barely got a start
Alone with a lost soul
As someone broke my heart
4 measures out
Lyrics by MH
WHO AM I
4 measures
Who am I?
In this space and time
But a spec of sand
In this scheme so grand
Who’s this soul?
I just can’t get inside
Crawling in a hole
From this world I hide
Who am I? I don’t know, can I lie?
Who am I? Behind this mask I sigh
Who am I? I think I must decide
Who am I? The fork pierced through my side
4 measures
Who am I?
I ask you once again
I ain’t buying your lies
An apparition in disguise
Who decides?
What is right and what is wrong
Who is reality?
And what does it mean to me?
Chorus
8 + 4 measures
Who am I?
See me jolt and twitch
Lash me forever
Leave me dying in a ditch
Who’s Alive?
Screaming through their eyes
Abandoned in darkness
Aching from the thighs
Chorus
8 measures out
Lyrics by MH
HERE I AM
8 measures
Here I am
My gifts are buried deep
Scarcity and secrecy
My insecurities
Yet building on confidence
Converting thought to deed
Everything is imagination
Evolution of a daydream
Chorus
Here I am, Let’s flow to the sea
Here I am, Let’s fly above the clouds
8 measures
Eruption inside a soul
Questioning your sanity
Venturing across the lines
There is no turning back
Pulling up the veil
For all the world to see
Embarking upon creation
Engraved for eternity
Here I am, let’s flow to the sea
Here I am, we’re flying above the clouds
Here I am, let’s be set free
Here I am, the world is waiting for you and me
16 measures
I’ve been stripped of my mask
Exposed and cut in stone
Lucid interpretations
Those opinions can take any tone
Transcribing a subtle vibe
Breathing, the breath of life
Tuning into endless energy
Channeled through the mind
Here I am, Let’s flow to the sea
Here I am, Let’s fly above the clouds
Here I am, Let’s be set free
Here I am, The world is waiting for you and me
16 measures out

INEVITABLE
8 measures
Spaceships off to mars
Satellites orbit high
Roads sprawl endless
Pollution rises high
Sunset on a lake
Tree branch hanging low
Canoe off in the distance
Midnight fires glow
Chorus
Internet jams a highway
Computer clicks to crash
Another filthy city
Humans surfing trash
Internet jams a highway
Computer clicks to crash
Another filthy city
Another itchy rash
4 measures
Air conditioner rumbles the window
Outside noise fades at last
The embrace of a lover
Directors of the cast
Minding the wilderness
Where instinct resides
Gasping at progression
Half of us will fade and die
Chorus
16 measures
Air conditioner rumbles the window
Outside noise fades at last
The embrace of a lover
Directors of the cast
Sunset on a lake
Tree branch hanging low
Canoe off in the distance
Midnight fires glow
Chorus
12 measures out
Lyrics by MH
MY VANITY
4 + 4 measures
I am so vain
I'll drain your mind
I’ll string you along
I want to own your mind
I'll tell you all the lies
You’re dying to hear
You'll think you got the prize
till you drown in tears
Come on all you people
put your trust in me
Ya gotta have some faith
in my vanity
4 measures
I tear your little heart
and rip it to a shred
I take your innocence
I’ll mess with your head
I thrive on deceit
My life is just a scheme
For I'll line you up
and steal away your dreams
Come on all you people
put your trust in me
Ya gotta have some faith
in my vanity
Come on all you people
put your trust in me
Let’s try this again
Keep your sanity
16 measures
You’re on my road of treachery
Walking into my foul play
With a double cross I’ll bully you
and change the words you say
You'd love to see some justice
yet I feel no shame
I'm feeling no remorse, oh no
Only yourself to blame
Double chorus 12 out
Lyrics by MH
THE MEANINGLESS
8 measures
Another broken bottle
Another one night lay
A laughing drinkin party
led me off astray
Oh, The all mighty dollar
The pinnacle to reach
Mansion on the shoreline
Well-tuned bodies on the beach
I am empty, I am bare
Telling the world that I ‘just can’t seem to care’
I am empty I am bare
Nothing left to hide as life is just despair
Years feel like days
cause time has slipped away
A ripped and torn life
Staring out at the bay
4 measures
Another special someone
things have hit the peak
Falling backwards blinded
another mate to seek
Carrots hang forever
always in my sight
I'm grasping desperately
trying to get it right
Chorus
8 measures
The sensual experience
brought me little gain
The values of society
Only brought me pain
Another broken bottle
Another one night lay
A laughing drinkin party
led me off astray
Chorus
Lyrics by MH
CALLING OF THE SPIRITS
8 measures
A hill on an old dirt road
The moon peers through the trees
A flame in a broken window
Musty curtains blown aside
Mansion lies in ruin
Wildlife scurries away
Porch hangs in shambles
Remnants of yesterday
Chorus #1 x 2
Calling of the spirits
they gave her company
Making up the future
for only her mind to see
4 measures
Helpless I was drawn in
the energy I couldn’t fight
Soon gazing within myself
as truth had shown its light
She was a shadow at the table
Staring in a trance
Dusty books lie open
As I saw the spirits dance
Chorus #2 x 2
Calling of the spirits
they gave her company
Making up the future
for only her mind to see
Calling of the spirits
they gave us company
Channeling the future
for only us to see
16 measures
2nd verse repeat
Chorus #2
Lyrics by MH
FLYING METAL
Turbines hit eruption
Gearing the engines up
Metal rivet metal
Floating nauts inside
Cast iron tips the scale
Heavy assembly
Blasting to a universe
Life beyond the sky
Chorus
Gotta love flying metal
igniting the midnight sky
Industrial invention
It’s the only way to fly
4 measures
Oxidizing fuel
inside a cavity
Power of combustion
Expended energy
Shooting through the atmosphere
A journey into space
Breaking free of gravity
Off to a better place
Chorus x 2
4 measures
Intellectual minds
Hierarchy of politics
Push mankind ahead
Or perhaps a bag a tricks?
Grants for results
Altered evidence
Overdramatize
Is deviation the norm?
Chorus x 1
8 measures
Verse 1
Chorus x 1
Lyrics by MH
COMING HOME
16 measures
Twisted roads took me away
To the dark and obscene
The merciless, like a curse
None like I’d ever seen
Tension thrived before me
Thick as walls it enchained
The aspirations lay dying
It all went up in flames
I'm coming home at last
Time to change the theme
I'm coming home girl
Things are never as they seem
8 measures
Pulse of the city pounded
The night life tore me down
Robbed and beaten badly
I knew I had to move ahead
Promises made my hopes and dreams
But they were gone before I came
I am so stuck in misery
And curling down the drain
I'm coming home at last
Time to change the theme
I'm coming home girl
Things are never as they seem
8 measures
