Measure for Measure

Songs Lyrics
In the place of your haughtiness you will be brought low
And every law that you transgress is going to bring another sorrow
This is the way the scales are set everything in just measure
You can add or detract or you might even
make things a little bit better and I say
Just weights and measures
Measure for measure
And if the rains refuse to fall you know there is a reason
And if we burn the book of rules the punishment is treason
Don't blame the heavens no, look into the mirror
And if you suffer you'll see it's so
You can see things a little clearer and I say
(Chorus)
And if the accuser brings evidence and our fate is sealed forever
The judge can only set us free by raising an oppressor
So it will be until we see only he is our protection
And if you want to be redeemed
you got to earn a coin of redemption and I say
(Chorus)
Don't worry my little child - Though it's dark it will get better
Our father will correct us all - Everyone in just measure
And I say
(Chorus)

Mystical Mood

Im in a mystical mood
In a mystical groove
It's a mystical vibe
You're eyes like candles
Swimming in the moonlight
We don't have to say a word
My heart is burning
And you are my fire
And we don't have to make a sound
(Chorus)
The light of the moon is
Falling between us
A light I have known before
Where have I seen you
And how did I meet you
And why do I want you
More and more and more and more and
Bum bum bum bum bum bum biya x4
(Solo)
(Refrain)
(Chorus)

Blowing on the Coals
04:36
|

Songs Lyrics
The hour is rapidly changing
Soon the gates will all be closed
They're blaming the messenger
For the message
And so the darkness
Grows and grows and grows
But I'm Blowing on the Coals x3
To keep the fire burning
Have you seen the sword of justice
Twisted and bent out of shape
Whose going to come
With his soul on fire
Bend it back and make it straight
(Chorus)
(Solo)
Among the ruins of the temple
Among the thorns a flower grows
From a son
Whose searching for his father
From the ashes
Their's still a light that glows
(Chorus)

Relatively Speaking
03:57
|
|||
Songs Lyrics
Their's a war between the currents
And the powers of control
The survival of the fittest
And survival of the soul
A war between the heroes
And whomever they can taint
Relatively speaking
There is no perfect saint
Relatively speaking x 3
There's a war
Relatively speaking x 3
There's a war
There's a war between the generals
A war between the chiefs
A war between the bridegrooms
A war between the sheets
A war between the rulers
And all the broken rules
Relatively speaking
Even mercy can be cruel
(Chorus)
(Solo)
There's a war against the certian
A war against the sure
A war against the Holy
A war against the pure
A war between the pages
Between the twilight and the dawn
A war against all those who say
There is no right from wrong
(Chorus)
(Solo)
(Chorus)

Waiting For A Miracle
04:03
|

Songs Lyrics
Verse:
City sphinx of brick and bone
It's cold lights watching you alone
You stand under the starless night
But angels won't come out tonight
To greet you
The monuments of those who died
To build these graveyards to the sky
Are sinking and you wonder why
The ground you stand upon
Is still beneath you
Chorus:
And it's long past the time
The ships are sailing out and I'm
Waiting for some miracle to happen
Verse:
The cities eyes that have no soul
And all that glitters takes it's toll
When once you were a messenger
Now nothing can get through
To even reach you
Attached to things you cannot have
Sweet perfumes that will go bad
Each one better than the last you had
And you think your sword of love
Will not defeat you
(Chorus)
Bridge:
And as I watch my feet slowly sinking
I catch the moments that I can
They say the world is made for men of action
But I keep waiting for some miracle to happen
(solo)
Verse:
City Sphinx that lost its glow
Its always fed and never full
And you wonder why you cannot leave
Is it just this broken fence
That surrounds me
The light is sealed from those below
The rivers dry and hardly flows
And nothing much can really grow
But pestilence and locusts all around me
(Chorus)

Promised Land
04:04
|

Songs Lyrics
Bye Bye Babylon
I can't keep leading you on
Though my flesh still melts
At the touch of your hand
It's just not the Promised Land
I'm leaving all of this behind
Nothing here is really mine
Got to find my oasis in the sand
Back in the Promised Land
There's a judge and there's a trial
I'm hoping to exchange my file
If I can prove that
I can walk and I can stand
Within the Promised Land
I'm just a ghost
That's what I've become
Too much to taste
Will make you numb
Got to return
My body to my soul - if I still can
She's waiting in the Promised Land
(Chorus)

Running Dry

Songs Lyrics
Too Late
The tide is turning
Look all around
The river is running dry
And what will we do
If there's no water
What will we do
If there's no water
Look up
I heard a robin sigh
Look at the world
Iron chains accross the sky
And what will we do?
If there's no freedom
What'll we do
If there's no water
And there will come a time
When there will be no more crying
But now we stand between the tides
And the river is running dry

Songs Lyrics
Henaini, here I am, Henaini
Here I am, Henaini, Henaini
What do you want of me
What can I give to thee
If there is more, more than I can be
Henaini
For what am I next to thee
I'm but a drop in the sea
But when you call I will answer thee, Henaini.
(Chorus)
Oh Israel you're bride to be
She is calling to me
And I will answer faithfully
Henaini
And if I must stand before my enemies
You alone are my security
And I will say, as my fathers did before me
Henaini
(Chorus)
For what am I next to thee
What do I have that you haven't given me
So when you call I will answer thee
Henaini

Kedusha

Songs Lyrics
What is the way that leads to happiness
What is the kind of work that brings one rest
What is the house that dwells within the home
What is the song that can't be sung alone
Ahh - Kedusha
How come the highest mountain's made so low
What is the secret only servants know
What is the chain that's made from strings of pearls
What is the knot that's tied between two worlds
Ahh - Kedusha
And the knower of all mysteries
He has given us all a key
And the secret is locked inside this word
Ahh - Kedusha
(Chorus)
What is the sound your soul would like to hear
What is the voice that whispers in your ear
What is the word that words can't even speak
What is the hand that no man can defeat
Ahh - Kedusha
What is the plan thats planted in the seed
What is concealed within a simple deed
What is the flame from where the fire's born
What is the cloth that burns but isn't torn

Modern Idols
03:24
|
|||
Songs Lyrics
Talking bout the junkies fix and the skinheads fist and the planets course
And the new titanic and the instamatic and the Trojan horse
And they make them out of clay
They make them out of words philosophers say
And in the end your all alone and your flesh turn to bone
And it fades away and I say
These - Are the Modern Idols
And they worship the State, their wealth
And their pleasure and their power and their pain
And they worship themself
Their birth and their health and the size of their brain
And they say the Divine
Ain't nothing but the image of their own design
But they can't seem to wish away the big black cloud
Where the sun used to shine and I say
These - Are the Modern Idols
They say a cultured man
Is the symbol of emancipation
And they pray to the gods of science for salvation
But while the symphony plays the SS sprays poison gas
They say a cultured man has only learned to kill
With a touch of class and I say
These - Are the Modern Idols

Bribes

Songs Lyrics
Bribes - Blind the eyes of the wise
Just a taste you tell yourself
It's just one time
It's nothing more
Then it's two, and three, and four
Bribes - Blind the eyes of the wise
Forbidden fruit it tastes so sweet
You love to lie and tell yourself why
It's really meant to eat
Bribes - Blind the eyes of the wise

Jericho
03:40
|
|||
Songs Lyrics
Take what you want the possesions you posses
And the secrets - buried in your chest
And see how much you can carry
Over this wall
Take everything you see, every apple on the tree
It's no sin, to be persuaded easily
Hurry and hide it all - over that wall
And when the rain comes and the storm clouds grow
Where you going to be when the trumpets blow?
Will you be safe inside the walls of Jericho?
Does nobody fall behind the walls of Jericho?
Take what you can, you can conquer every land
Take your sacs go fill them up full of sand
They say 'Freedom waits for us all' just over that wall.
Take your horses and let them all run wild
Take your judges and put them all on trial
Build ourself a castle that will never fall - just over that wall.
And when the rain comes and the storm clouds grow
Where you going to be when the trumpets blow?
Will you be safe inside the walls of Jericho?
Does nobody fall behind the walls of Jericho?

We Are the Prophecy

Songs Lyrics
We are the prophecy
The sages said a long time ago
From a barren desert a spring will flow
We are the prophecy
And though we've been scattered in every direction
From the four corners we'll bring the redemption
We are the prophecy - La, la..
We are the prophecy
The hour is late there's no time for sleeping
Lift up your eyes and stop all your weeping
We are the prophecy - La, la..
And all the kings horses and all the kings men
They can't stop the tide from turning under them
We are the prophecy - La, la..
As it was in the beginning, so it will always be
We are the prophecy
