There's a sign in the sky
that says all will be well
Lockdown
you can't get anywhere
Trying to leave the city
no-one knows who will be spared
But at least you know we cared.
Too much
Information
Coming at me
24/7 knocking
on my frontdoor
Lockdown
I can't hear it anymore
There's a sign in the sky
that says all will be well
Lockdown
They say it wears a crown
And in the dark goes around
eleven levels of change
Whatever you do
you're never out of range.
Patience
I can't believe it anymore.
Whoever has the keys
Can you please
open the door.
Lockdown
Lockdown
Save me

TheTinkle Of Money
This morning I saw her...
standing up to be counted...
this evening the shadows have fallen
down over the hills...
this is someone
we won't see again.
Are you really ready
for the reality we're facing?
Are you truly prepared
for what comes after this?
Where any one of our lives
could be betrayed by a kiss.
Or the tinkle of money.
She sang, "I dreamed of a world
where I could fly free.
I dreamed of a place...
where I could be me."
These are the dreams
of a girl who stood in a stadium
before one single shot
blew all these dreams straight out of her head.
You think you're immune?
I have to ask what makes you think so?
Why do you think you're protected
What special qualities you possess,
where a bullet is unable to find you?
Are you really ready
for the reality we're facing?
Are you truly prepared
for what comes after this?
Where any one of our lives
could be betrayed by a kiss.
Or the tinkle of money?

Lake of love
There's a story
as old as the mountains,
I know it really happened;
but I deny everything!
If they ask me
what went on...
Before we knew it,
we were standing
at the side of the Lake.
Are you there?
Am I here?
At the lake of Love.
And that was then:
for the first time,
boy and girl.
Only then, as a boy
as a girl,
I had to know
what's going on
In the world.
That's how it feels,
Somebody tell me where this is,
Heading down the shoreline
of the Lake
The lake of Love
At the side of the lake
Are you there?
Am I here?
At the lake of Love

Ghost of Judy
Have you seen the ghost of Judy,
Roaming in the park?
She learned her lines, did her duty
but somehow lost her spark.
Haunted by fame and stardom,
- that cruel machine -
Left her out, in the cold
and treated her so mean.
Can you spare a thought for Judy?
She still needs to be loved.
Will she rise and find some freedom
in heavens up above?
Eternal curse
that pulled her under,
no-one could escape
the fog that hangs
over this land,
paints a dreadful shape.
Don't you gaze
into those eyes
that follow you through the street:
the wanting, yearning,
most brokenhearted
girl you could ever meet.
Say a prayer
for the ghost of Judy
She might be redeemed
And in her next
incarnation
She may start out clean.
