Truths and Lies Comon soldier fight, if you wanna Lift your head real high, if you wanna Comon doctor talk, if you wanna Reveal all you’ve got, if you wanna Bring on anger shout, if you wanna Coat it all with lies, if you wanna Comon soldier fight, if you wanna Lift your head real high, if you wanna Truth is a shade That covers up your sun If can do you harm Though you try to Light it up with words Truth is a stain That can’t be cleansed or washed away It can lead the way To an eagger mindful being, though it won’t fit Mouth is dried out Preaching my vision through song Song Song Comon soldier fight, if you wanna Lift your head real high, if you wanna Comon doctor talk, if you wanna Reveal all you’ve got, if you wanna Bring on anger shout, if you wanna Coat it all with lies, if you wanna Comon soldier fight, if you wanna Lift your head real high, if you wanna Truth has way Of pleasing only who forsakes Inconvenient though As believers wish to live in Their imaginary world Truth brings you pain For it obliges self-view Seek your Comfort-zone In assurance that transparency’s a revolutionary act All dried out, bring water to my song Song Song (repeat and fade)

Quest for Gold Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Selfish man Heart is cold Determined to be Left to oblivion Selfish man By the Water You’re Lost In your Quest for Gold Dig deep Gold See if it shines Gold Choose wisely Gold Check for flaws Gold Bite it Gold Clean it up Gold Sell it Gold Make your dough Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Selfish man All alone Ain’t nobody loves you You love noone Selfish man Take a look around You’ll miss it all In the name of Gold Dig deep Gold See if it shines Gold Choose wisely Gold Check for flaws Gold Bite it Gold Clean it up Gold Sell it Gold Make your dough ... Hey! Hey! Hey!

Tango fado Morna Blues Talk to me love If I can be of any help assisting you in your path I’d be just thrilled to let you know That life is a battlefield We all go through So carry love in your heart And you’ll find that’s the only way To get by Honey it hurts To grow But chill Once you nurtur yourself you’ll be swell Feelings, someone, people, something, things Truly live free Liberdade! Sometimes you fall And it’s an endless downhill But be happy Life is makin’ sure You don’t grow too many roots ... This is my tango, fado, morna, blues What do I see across the way, hey See myself molded in clay, ah Stares at me yeah, i’m afraid, hey Changin’ the shape of his face, oh Yeah Littel boy made a mistake, hey Pink cloud has now turned to grey, ah All that I want is to play, hey Get on your knees, time to pray, oh Yeah...

Do you Know? 04:41
Do You Know? “Live alone, move away” These are advises I hear Among other “Don’t feel, don’t feel” Live has a process of chosing what’s right But who knows? (not me) “Behave, don’t smile Crave for what they have Don’t be beautiful Thay can’t take it” In this wide place There’s only room for one skill Whether it’s singin’ or it’s all about your looks Did you know? You weren’t here So how on earth did you know? Do you know? How could you know? ....

Infatuation 04:50
Infatuation Often you come ‘round my bed Oh slowly Feel you inside me, our love So sweet Thinkin’ my heart was filled Right from the start Now let me see you smilin’ baby Lovin’ you makes my world spin When love resists your skin Oh, let it in Take a chance and you will feel So swell Infatuated lovers Give in Open up your heart and love will flow When love resists your skin Oh, let it in Take a chance and you will feel So swell Infatuated lovers Give in Open up your heart and love will flow I’m drawn in, spellbound Oh swwt love of mine Caught you starin’, those eyes Ashine You’re rushing’ through my bloodstream, searchin’ No more I’m Yours

That's Life 06:21
That’s Life Each time you smile Words that make you cry It’s the things that just happen Unwanted, unplanned A kiss, a crush, disapointment Revenue, All you care for Life is this wonderful thing Terrible too Secrets you share Things you never told Some people you meet Happy coincidences, shocking truths Perfect shoes for the occasion Though inside you are broken Life, paints this fabulous picture A perfect you Loss of a Child Flowers at your door Someone you admire Rings you up Friends went away Others that you gain Show you Life is worth it Breathe it all in Thank you’s, good-byes Anger, I love you’s In your mouth a fresh flavour Sadness in your eyes Images of that summer I was young, you were mine Life took an interesting turn To start anew
