Track Name: Catch Me If You Can
The way you look at her

Is the way I see a butterfly

Full of light...beautiful

Peaceful and free


I will love my wings

I will heal my wounds

Drifting

High in the wind

Drift…Drifting…Drift…Drifting



Spending time in a cocoon

But I understand I need to bloom 

Open my wings out to the world

And be on my own

Give myself the chance to grow

I will love my wings

I will heal my wounds

Drifting

High in the wind

Drift…Drifting…Drift…Drifting


Possibilities
That I can call my own

Painting flowers with the sun 

Catch me if you can

Catch me if you can
Track Name: In The Flames
Sitting by the fire
This sensation feels so warm
The flames bring me higher
They're inviting me to join them
And again I meet The beauty of this heat

All alone with my mind in the flames, it's a game
I watched all the others run inside to play
I don't understand, but it's all right
I like to be alone in the night

Earth, Water
Fire, Air

Can't see the moon tonight
But I'm still HOWLING in the night
A shooting star, Shinning far
I wish for you to take my scars tonight

Sitting by the fire
This sensation feels so warm
The flames bring me higher
They've invited me to join them
And yet again I meet The beauty of this heat

All alone, all alone with my mind in the flames.
Track Name: Flying
Broken and smashed down to zero
It's been two years, and through such fears, and tears
to come back around

Once was a man, was a hero
Now fear of heights, oh hold on tight, the fright
of falling down to the ground

I could fly
or at least I could try
I could fly
or at least I could try
If I try, I might crash through the sky!

Two should collide into a feeling
The Current's strong, this can't be wrong, a song
Calloused heart open wide

Oh ecstasy! Spinning and reeling!
Inside her room, the Super Moon, is it too soon
to let someone inside?

We could fly
or at least we could try
We could fly
we could give it a try
If we try, we might crash through the sky!

Oh, we are divine precious children
Despite the years, behind such fears, and tears
shine the eyes of a god

Oh gods! Have we lost our vision?
The will and wisdom of a child, carefree and wild,
eternal and beyond

You can fly
or at least you can try
You can fly
or at least you can try
If you try you might crash through the sky

I can fly
I can fly! I can fly!
I can fly
I can fly! I can fly!

Flying, flying,
flying, flying,

We are children with the eyes of a god.

If we try we might crash through the sky.
Track Name: Distant End
I feel the memories
Oh how I miss you
I feel the memories
Oh I miss you

I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I'm sad to be
Away from you

I miss you
I want to kiss you
I want to hold you
I want to feel you
I want to taste
Your lips on mine

I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I don't like that
You are so far away

I can't wait
To see you
It's been way
Too long
And I hope that you
Still feel the same

I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
It doesn't have to
Be this way

It's so good
To see you
But you're
not the same
I should have realized
That something
was wrong
Track Name: Castaway
Got to keep it together
I am sailing on the open sea
Navigating the ocean
And I’ll sail …
Find an island just for me

Run aground on this island
Isolated, I am free
I’m alone on this island
Left the pain far behind me
A castaway I’ll be!

I am
A castaway
So a castaway I’ll be

I stand on this island
Feel the soft sand on the beach
I sit on this island
Smell the clean wind that’s blowing
Through the grass and round the leaves

I lie on this island
Mighty waves against me beat
I’m asleep on this island
The caress of the sunshine
I am swaddled in the heat

I am
Earth, Air, Water, Fire
Sandy surf, and sun, and breeze

I am an island
I’m alone and I am free
I am an island
And you will never find me
And my shores you’ll never see

You can’t
You can’t ever hurt me
You can’t hurt me any more

Got to keep it together.
Track Name: Watch The World Breathe
8:00 Am, clear sunny skies
Small patches of clouds are floating up high
Life and life forms, are all around
From way up high, from the sky to the ground

Let's watch the world, watch the world breathe

The waves and winds of our minds
Are like weather patterns
Depending on the day
They can lose us
Or throw us away
Unless of course we take control
When we're in control we can frame our minds
But only if we are willing.

Rush hour, electricity
Suffocating us, in the city
A never-ending use of city lights
Peaceful living, no longer a right

Who cares what time it is
If your life is full of preoccupations obligations,
And occasions For distractions
You will miss the opportunity
To watch the world breathe

Take a minute, take a day, take a week
The wind is still, the air is cold
Take a minute, take a day, take a week
Life and life forms are all around
Take a minute, take a day, take a week
Let's watch the world breathe
Track Name: In The City
I feel so polluted
I miss the smell of happy trees
Music is the only thing that helps me feel clean
I don't feel like I belong here

I'm unhappy in the city
But I have painted a place in my mind
Where the feeling of belonging shines
A place where everyone smiles
Where Peace and Harmony resides

The city is a “Concrete Jungle"
Everyone is running 'round in circles
No one even knows where they're going
None of it makes any sense to me

Police are flying 'round like vultures
Waiting for the right time to catch their prey
The rich are making too much money
and the homeless are begging to survive

Where is the feeling of that country breeze?
Where the air tastes so sweet?
Don't let your life pass you by
Being hypnotized
By the city

When evening fell upon this native land
When evening fell upon this native land

Into the trees went the medicine man

Touching the ground with his hands
Touching the ground with his hands
