Where We All Go The sky explodes, where do you go? There’s nowhere to run, sand and star are one Is there a place where we all go? Is there a place everybody knows? We’re mountains with rivers in between And underneath the ice you and I will meet If the world would come, where would you want to go? Would hide out in the clouds, or would you be the sun that broke? Is there a place where we all go? Is there a place everybody knows? Is there a place where we all go? Is there a place everybody knows?

Sand In The Sun When you call will I come? I’m walking the town On the run When I needed space You kicked me out All I think and feel You hear me shout We’re all sand in the sun We all forget who we are I will remember We’re all here for each other And what we believe Will always come All I think is all I see All I believe Is done to me The mountains will move For everyone When we raise our hands And drop our guns We’re all sand in the sun We all forget who we are I will remember We’re all here for each other And what we believe Will always come

Who You Really Are I turned out the lights I didn't think that they were luminous And you said, "Why am I always trying to ruin this?” We're drawing circles in the sand we come back to where we began Sing a new song of celebration you've been gone so long Have you found who your really are? Who you really are She said, "I'm on the edge got nothing to reach for Nothing to leap for" Well you can jump but you'll be grabbing air If you don't care You’re drawing circles in the sand You come back to where you began Sing a new song of celebration You’ve been gone so long Have you found who your really are? Who you really are At the shoreline Ready to go At the shoreline You wanted to know You’re walking circles around the sun you come back to where you were born Sing a new song of celebration You've been gone so long Have you found who your really are? Who you really are

Shadows of June The storm was calm and constant In its lightlessness at day In the beginning of June Where the spring won’t go away I heard you in the gloaming Through your terror and your fright A friend in the dark Not just the candles in the night Oh this beautiful darkness, It grows Hearts are shocked by trauma Into love's first fight or flight The moon washed over you Like my hands did in its light Outside was revolution Thousands running through the streets Newspapers strewn with blood and rain And the dirt from countless feet I want to change the world too, but you are changing me Inside is evolution, you can’t give what you can’t be Oh this beautiful darkness, It grows Oh this beautiful darkness, let it go Oh this beautiful darkness in the shadow of the sun There comes a moment where it might break Because it always does Oh this beautiful darkness in the shadow of the sun There comes a moment where we might break Or we might run Oh this beautiful darkness in the shadow of the sun There comes a moment where it might break Because it always does Oh this beautiful darkness in the shadow of the sun There comes a moment where we might break Or we might bend

F35 04:57
F35 He don’t want to talk to media, he don’t want to give you what you got They say he likes to play the piano, but he’ll ban this song from all our radio He got religion on his right arm, no patience for the left On his mind he’s got a think tank, in his heart he wants a fight, F35 He shut down the government so we don’t get none of it He don’t do anything just for the fun of it He don’t like environment, he’ll say where the money spent Got a few billion, jets for some killing, F35 He don’t want to talk to media, he don’t want to give you what you got They say he likes to play the piano, but he’ll ban this song from all our radio He’s got some friends who like to sell arms and in the Federal Reserve He’s got some friends who make the big stars, just don’t speak or you’ll get burned, F35 He shut down the government so we don’t get none of it He don’t do anything just for the fun of it, he don’t like First Nations He’ll say where the money spent, got a few billion, jets for some killing, F35

Emergency 04:36
Emergency See the lights go out Feel the wounds all over your body Hear the storm outside The wind crash through in the room Sometimes you don’t feel like life could get better Sometimes you’re so broken You don’t think that you can be fixed Your eyes are lights But they’re as dark as the sky When you fall asleep You’re there again in the fight The storm comes down and Your dreams hit you like the rain Here comes the dawn Now you and the sun are the same For once I’m not going to give up For once I’ve found what I’ve got to do For once I know that you’re going to get there Because when you can’t walk I’ll be there carrying you I dropped you off at emergency I stayed a while then I had to go and sing A song about us See a tiny flower standing up to the thunder See a heavy cloud gently fall like a heart The trees are down but you’re Standing in the morning daylight No one can tell that you’ve been to hell and back For once I’m not going to give up For once I’ve found what I’ve got to do For once I know that you’re going to get there Because when you can’t walk I’ll be there carrying you I dropped you off at emergency

Newest Revelation There is no one, no being anywhere You’re not apart from You are here but you’re not mine In space and time What’s good for you is good for everyone When we are one And what’s good for all is good for you So good for you I am here I hear your words Voice of love in all us here on Earth You are the newest revelation The spirit moves in every moment You said this song won’t change anyone’s life Well it changed mine, it changed mine You and I will breathe each other’s air And so will the tress Love will always be a bridge in between I am here and I hear your words Voice of love in all us here on Earth You are the newest revelation You spirit moves in every moment Everyone is gone But I am here I hear your words Voice of love in all us here on Earth You are the newest revelation Our spirit moves in every moment

Echo Bay 04:40
Echo Bay I want to sing an honest song I’ve been gone for so long Put my feet upon a stone Set my soul free to find a home Singing something across the way I found my life on Echo Bay, on Echo Bay Help me see now, help me believe My mind is racing with no relief I was sleeping, now I’m awake Found my life on Echo Bay, on Echo Bay If I return will you wait? My wings are burnt but I found a way When we return, we’re changed, change I heard you calling
9.
Whisper 05:06
Whisper What are you going to say? To make me go away? All our crops are skinned and burnt I don’t know when they’ll return Can you plant a fear in my soul? So you can take what you can’t control? Will you call us your dearest kin? So you can take what you can’t win? Then the lie comes With naught but a whisper in the night We made the myth of limited Then everyone fights for it No armies, no nations Will free up a three hundred trillion Dollars for all basic needs Education, homes and seeds Then there’ll be no more Reserves Every land one on earth You come at them with a gun in your hands Said you’re “gonna to take it all” Going to take their land You don’t care about them They’re wrong, you’re right Gonna carry your raid out at night And then your crew got the scurvy So you prayed to God and you prayed to Mary And I sent my sons with an elixir Said “Gonna heal all of your crew Mr.” Because your boat got caught up in The ice off the coast of the New Land But you lied to me, you lied to me And then the lie comes With naught but a whisper in the night

Over The Wall Oh my God, Jehovah and Allah If I could let it go I would I would if I could and I should I know Like the Dhammapada said What'd ya say? What'd ya say? Walking the bare streets with your dirty feet It’s the dirty things people say It don’t phase me at all, at all She said, "Life is another word for God" Who’s sing, who’s singing along? Whoa-oh, over the wall You are me and I am you Everything we do will run through Run through and through On the bloody streets with your dirty feet It’s the dirty things people say It don’t phase me at all, at all She said, "Life is another word for God" Who’s sing, who’s singing along? Whoa-oh, over the wall If Life was God You couldn’t kill Life In God’s name In Her name In His name In Our name Whoa-oh, over the wall

The Unknown 05:23
The Unknown Midday, our sisters and brothers gone Can you see them walking into the sun? Now you’re just sitting there beside The tomb of the unknown Hope you’re putting yourself together in The dark night of your soul In the wind you hear a mother’s cry The rain falls on everyone With tears inside Now you’re just sitting there beside The tomb of the unknown Hope you’re putting yourself together in The dark night of your soul We’re all just searching for something Can never let it go And you are only asking, “Why?” At the tomb of the unkown Where have all their sisters gone? Have they been forgotten? Where did all our brothers fall? And will we ever remember? Now you’re just sitting there beside The tomb of the unknown Hope you’re putting yourself together in The dark night of your soul We’re all just searching for something Can never let it go And you are only asking, “Why?” At the tomb of the unkown They said there was nothing wrong Even though they’re gone
