New Year's Day

All is quiet on New Year's Day,
A world in white gets underway,
And I want to be with you,
Be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's Day.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white.
Arms entwined, the chosen few,
Newspapers say, it says it's true.
And we can break through,
though torn in two we can be one.
I will begin again, I will begin again.
Oh and maybe the time is right,
Oh maybe tonight.
I will be with you again.
I will be with you again.

And so we are told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage.
Though I want to be with you,
To be with you night and day.
Nothing changes on New Year's day.



Treasure - Whatever Happened To Pete The Chop

I like to smile,
But I like to mostly stay with you.
I like good times,
But I can't feel this without you.
By my song,
The heart is in the place.
I sing this song,
Probably so.

If I could sigh,
I'd tell the world I'd felt with you.
I like the time,
I like the feeling when,
I feel you in my arms,
I'll take you in my hand,
I'll let you go...
Somebody save me...
Somebody save me...

Sing it,
Sing my, sing my song,
We sing the same old song loud...

Smile... Though your heart breaks in two
Touch me... When will I be with you

I like good times,
But I can feel it's going wrong.
You sing the same old song,
Now I think it's time to get it right...

Sing it out, sing out...
Sing this same old song...

If I could swim,
I'd swim in circles...
If I could drown,
I'd, I'd drown with you...
If I had enough of my life,
I can't tell, If I had enough of you...



I Threw A Brick Through A Window

I was talking,
I was talking to myself,
somebody else.
Talk, talk, talking.

I couldn't hear a word,
A word you said.
He was my brother.
I said there was no other,
Way out of here.
Be my brother.
I got to get out.

I was walking,
I was walking into walls.
I'm back again, just keep walking.
I walk into a window to see myself,
and my reflection.
When I thought about it,
My direction,
Going nowhere,
Going nowhere.

No one,
No one is blinder.
Who will,
Who will not see ?
No one,
no one is blinder than me.

I was talking,
I was talking in my sleep.
I can stop talking.
I'm talking to you.
It's up to you.
Be my brother.
There is another way out of here,
In my brother.
Gonna get out,
Gonna get out of here.



A Day Without Me

I'm starting a landslide in my ego.
Look from the outside,
To the world I left behind.

I'm dreaming,
You're awake.
If I were sleeping,
Once I'd say
A day without me.

What are the feelings I've been feeling ?
What are the feelings to let me out ?

Today's a day without me.

I started a landslide in my ego.
Look from the outside,
To the world I left behind,
To the world I left behind.

Wipe the eyes from the laughter,
To the world I left behind.
Share the tears and the laughter.
