High Treason
You’ve taken the silver and gold you can never pay back
And I think you knew that before you had altered your track
I can take hurt but you know I cannot take treason
Canopied lies
Cloak and disguise
Then away
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
You opened the wound that we both know we’ll never repeal
I think you knew that before you broke off the seal
I can take punches but I cannot take a traitor
Copious lies
Cloak and disguise
Then away
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
Now you’re in hiding
How does it feel in the dark
I hear you crying
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
You were seen slipping away in the depth of the night
A flash your of face was enough to discover your flight
You choose your words well but you know
They don’t carry reason
Deliberate lies
Cloak and disguise
Then away
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun
You’re silently hiding your soul from the glare of the sun

Lord Franklin

Lord Franklin
It was homeward bound one night on the deep
Swinging in my hammock I fell asleep
I dreamed a dream and I thought it true
Concerning Franklin and his gallant crew
With a hundred seamen he sailed away
To the frozen ocean in the month of May
To seek a passage around the pole
Where we poor seamen sometimes have to go
Through cruel hardships they mainly strove
Their ship on mountains of ice was drove
Only the Eskimo in his skin canoe
Was the only one that ever came through
In Baffin's Bay where the whale fish blow
The fate of Franklin no man may know
The fate of Franklin no tongue can tell
Lord Franklin along with his sailors do dwell
And now my burden it gives me pain
For my long lost Franklin I'd cross the main
Ten thousand pounds I would freely give
To say on earth that my Franklin do live

FAITH
I heard you had gone
You answered the call
I touched it before I was told
Because we thought as one
The signal was strong
Some things you can cannot explain
But then again
There would not be lines
To torture through time
You knew life as angered and cold
But we had the fire
That others admired
Collecting our silver and gold
As we turned old
Faith is a belief
That you can't see
It's not for measuring
Faith you can't see
Not in degrees
It's not for measuring
for measuring
for measuring
for measuring
I never could cry
Because you'd laugh in my eyes
That picture still swims in my brain
I've nothing to wear
But I know you'd not care
As you watch me stand here in rain.
But then again

It´s Over, Goodnight

It’s Over
As a young boy when I first learned to sing
I never once thought of a use it would bring
But standing up here in the shade and the light
As we reach out together for comfort and right
You come escaping the lives that you live
I have an answer that I need to give
Now it’s over tonight
Now it’s over goodnight
I‘ve looked in your faces and I’ve seen in your eyes
That you listened intently and you followed my lines
Some thought of people they lost in the past
Some had lost love that just would not last
But whatever the reason that shackles your soul
It’s the very same reason that’s making me whole
Now it’s over tonight
Now it’s over goodnight
Now we’ve had fun and we loosened our load
I have my hotel and you have the road
As you drive in your cars in the dark to your homes
I will find comfort in drinking alone
As you fall to your feathers so soft and so fine
I’ll drink to you with a full glass of wine
Now it’s over tonight
Now it’s over goodnight
The boy is still singing it remains his delight
Because he learned it’s a way that he can pass on some light
And he hopes that his words have brought peace to your mind
As you drift off to sleep and leave this old world behind
Now it’s over tonight
Now it’s over goodnight

Table of Losers
Tonight I'm searching in the back room
Where all of my failures and weaknesses lie
I did not think that I'd be back so soon
But life has a way of telling me the way things lie
Thats why I sit at the table the table of losers
The table of losers, you'll never be alone
I want to drink to my mother and drink to my father
And look deep in my soul and in the morning
I'll be strong
I'll be strong
With my bare hands I work so hard for my keep
For the roof on my house in which my family sleep
But there are nights when I lie sleepless in my bed
When all my worries and my troubles
Are all spinning 'round my head
I had invested in my own true love
Now I'm waiting on the harvest and the good fruit thereof
I did believe my own true love would set me free
But all this coming and this going
Makes a fool right out of me!
