Red Sky Supernova So many years have passed since you left this lonely heart But I have been asleep so long it's like we've never been apart I see you in my dreams at night and it’s tearing through my chest And now I'll face these demons again as there's nothing left, Nothing for me... and if there is a hell I think I've seen it It tears you inside out it's never over The promises of new dawns don't believe it Here comes a red sky supernova… Hold on tight now It’s almost over Here comes a supernova I’m not afraid There’s nothing left Oh red sky supernova Every waking moment you possess my every breath The pain is numb and it pounds right through my veins like a banging drum I hear your voice it’s taunting me right down to the very bone And then it starts all over again and there’s nothing left Nothing for me… and if there is a hell I think I've seen it It tears you inside out, it's never over The promises of new dawns don't believe it Here comes a red sky supernova Hold on tight now It’s almost over Here comes a supernova I’m not afraid There’s nothing left Oh red sky supernova Supernova, supernova… In a red sky, red sky, red sky supernova Supernova, supernova… In a red sky, red sky, red sky supernova In a red sky, red sky, red sky supernova

Epic 04:07
Epic In need of some affection it’s my drug addiction In a lifetime of corruption I’m up for some seduction I’ve been in contention, retention, mostly in detention Accused of interruption that is your assumption Tired of your instruction will lead to your destruction A slave on to emotion and full on deep devotion All I wanna feel is epic Just epic, don’t you get it? All I wanna feel is epic Just epic, don’t you get it? The keys in the ignition now choose your destination Make your own decisions don’t live in indecision Can you feel the tension, frustration, the biting devastation? Decontamination in a life of sanitation You’re planning my abduction… then put things in production Don’t follow superstition, go break the tradition All I wanna feel is epic Just epic, don’t you get it? All I wanna feel is epic Just epic, don’t you get it? I dreamt through education with such imagination We must find admiration in a loving congregation Got in to meditation, conversation, this aint no invitation My life is a construction leading to obstruction In times of desperation, it’s pure determination Now let’s make a connection I’ll make this an exception All I wanna feel is epic Just epic, don’t you get it? All I wanna feel is epic Just epic, don’t you get it?

Panic in the Skies Got a handful of hurt A gut full of nails This aint one way ticket It’s gonna get rough Buckle up… Oh, I said ‘Buckle Up’ It is what it is I’m not gonna lie It never gets easy It’s hard and it’s tough Buckle up… Oh, I said ‘Buckle Up’ There’s panic in the skies I don’t wanna die There’s panic in the skies I don’t wanna die Panic in the skies I don’t wanna die There’s panic in the skies I don’t wanna die Got to fly through this hell With nerves cut from steel There’s no turning back Enough is enough Buckle up… Oh, I said ‘Buckle Up’ There’s panic in the skies I don’t wanna die There’s panic in the skies I don’t wanna die Panic in the skies I don’t wanna die There’s panic in the skies I don’t wanna die Touch me, feel me, Kiss me, guide me home, Guide me home… Panic in the skies, I don’t wanna die Panic in the skies, I don’t wanna die Panic in the skies, I don’t wanna die Panic in the skies, I don’t wanna die

Gravity Zero 04:36
Gravity Zero Check the airlocks and switch to lockdown All the controls say status normal Load the ghost, so load the ghost Switch to gravity zero Dance on air, dance on air Do you dream of electric sheep dear? Pull us round and we’ll circle orbit One more time, one more time Switch to gravity zero Dance on air, dance on air We’re high above the void And it’s the best you’ve ever felt Till you fall in love with me You won’t care about gravity And I’m never coming down No, I’m never coming down… Till your head over heels for me Then it’s back down to gravity, with me… We enter Alpha Centauri B So bright that it stings your eyes World on fire, world on fire Switch to gravity zero Dance on air, dance on air We’re high above the void And it’s the best you’ve ever felt Till you fall in love with me You won’t care about gravity And I’m never coming down No, I’m never coming down… Till your head over heels for me Then it’s back down to gravity, with me…

Subject 04:18
Subject Crash landed Searching for life Something’s here, it’s not quite right No warning light, the com links out Captain, are you reading me Captain, are you reading me Captain, are you reading me Another glance at my shadow Leaves a chill rolling down my spine Am I a subject of this dismal world? Someday soon you will find out That I’m lost without a trace Is this the end or a state of mind? Pale moonbeam Keep shining bright Cos I swear, things just aren’t right No warning light, the com links out Captain, are you reading me Captain, are you reading me Captain, are you reading me Another glance at my shadow… Leaves a chill rolling down my spine Am I a subject of this dismal world? Someday soon you will find out That I’m lost without a trace Is this the end or a state of mind? Running scared, time is up I wasn’t there, there enough, Now I know it’s too late Unaware I dream myself alive So long, so long Unaware that I dream myself alive So long, so long Another glance at my shadow Leaves a chill rolling down my spine Somebody’s screaming down, down from the sky Somebody’s screaming down, down from the sky Is this the end or a state of mind?

Carpe Diem 03:45
Carpe Diem We’re born and here we are And we never had a choice Eyes open wide… this is your life They say it is a gift It’s up to you to decide How to live your life… don’t get it twice! And we travel through our lives Trying to make things right Doing everything we can, there is no master plan Make it count Carpe diem, carpe diem The journey we all face It makes us who we are So travel light… this is your life You’re the captain of your ship Will you sink or will you sail? The seven seas… throw the dice And we travel through our lives Trying to make things right Doing everything we can, there is no master plan Make it count Carpe diem, carpe diem I’m no Peter Pan, take me as I am Here I am So we travel through our lives Trying to make things right Doing everything we can, there is no master plan Make it count Carpe diem, carpe diem And I’m no Peter Pan In search of a Neverland Though the years they never last, keep rolling on so fast Make it count Carpe Diem, carpe diem Seize the day…

She's Out There I fell in love the first time I saw you And I think you did too, those tender eyes You’ve been on my mind every day since that day Perfect lips like cupids bow The look that froze me where I stood And a body… a body to die for She’s out there, there somewhere She’ll set you alight Surrender She’s out there, there somewhere She’s there in the dark Surrender It eats at me the love that might have been, And I can’t forget you, those tender eyes You’ve broken my heart every day since that day Still I wonder where you are I fantasise and kiss your lips And that body… that body to die for She’s out there, there somewhere She’ll set you alight Surrender She’s out there, there somewhere She’s there in the dark Surrender Still hunger for you Still loving you, loving you Loving you, loving you She’s out there, there somewhere She’ll set you alight Surrender She’s out there, there somewhere She’s there in the dark Surrender x2

Little Lie 03:56
Little Lie I’ve done it all my life And I couldn’t tell you why But no matter how I try Along comes a little lie It all comes too easy That little old white lie And the hurt that’s in your eyes Breaks me down inside Just a little lul-la-la-la lie, lul-la-la-la lie A little lul-la-la-la lie, lul-la-la-la lie I can’t help myself I try, oh lul-la-la-la lie Sweet lie, lie, lie… little lie, lie, lie, Don’t mean to do no harm In the things that I say At the end of the day It’s just my little way Just a little lul-la-la-la lie, lul-la-la-la lie A little lul-la-la-la lie, lul-la-la-la lie I can’t help myself I try, oh lul-la-la-la lie Sweet lie, lie, lie… little lie, lie, lie, I’m trying to be honest Cos I struggle with the truth No matter how hard I try Along comes a little lie Just a little lul-la-la-la lie, lul-la-la-la lie A little lul-la-la-la lie, lul-la-la-la lie I can’t help myself I try, oh lul-la-la-la lie Sweet lie, lie, lie… little lie, lie, lie,

Jupiter's Tale Ooh… you rage inside, inside Winds are howling high Tell me how to fight the fire that rages on inside Twisting and turning you can’t find the answers why Lead me on into the darkness of your broken frame Tonight… winds are howling high tonight… Your halo turns to dust Tell me how to heal the wounds that run deep inside Lay down all your senses and the winds will fall for you The moons that surrounded you will bow to you once more Rest down your shoulders there’s no fear in letting go Ooh… winds are howling high tonight The cold runs in your veins Tell me how to rid the hurt that seizes all control How do I then fix the halo shattered on your brow Tell me how to break the chains that hold you down so low Can I tame the flames so you can live on once again

The Last Astronaut Drifting, floating in to space what seems like days Like when Ziggy sang from 'Ground Control to Major Tom’ I feel his pain, desperation and despair is all but gone I could be dreaming, going mad or just routine in being alone No ship to take me home I’m the last astronaut in space It’s a cold and lonely place to end The man that falls… falls from grace That slowly fades away to dust… to dust To dust, to dust, to dust Crying, shouting, screaming out for days and days I’ve been drifting now for miles and miles it never ends Am I insane… lost my marbles, lost control or lost the plot? Hallucinating, low on air or just routine in being alone No ship to take me home I’m the last astronaut in space It’s a cold and lonely place to end The man that falls… falls from grace That slowly fades away to dust… I’m the last astronaut in space It’s a cold and lonely place to end The man that falls… falls from grace That slowly fades away to dust… I sing… Dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye Dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye Dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye Dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye, dum dum do rye
