Blinded

Observe the world,
and what will we find?
Computers, disasters, politicians; so blind
Where is the hope for out future kin,
the walls are thick around this box we're in
Chorus x2
Blinded by technology,
Rid of the mythology
spoon fed from a strangers hand
Breath cannot be drawn,
without a bitter taste
the manipulation we face, as the human race
Someone somewhere is somebody's daughter,
but this girl won't give up, come hell or high water
Chorus x4 to outro
Blinded by technology,
rid of the mythology,
spoon fed from a strangers hand

Hands Untied

The sweet has turned sour, a bitter taste in our mouths
I may drown in contention, if I speak my mind out loud
Take a look through my eyes, looking in from the outside
I’m not bound by their enterprise
I live life with my hands untied
Our hands untied
Our hands untied
Our hands untied
Our hands untied
This ocean consumes them, full of deceit and our doubts
We may drown in contention
If we speak our minds out loud
Take a look through our eyes
Looking in from the outside
We’re not bound their enterprise
We live life with our hands untied
Our hands untied
Our hands untied
Our hands untied
Our hands untied
Looking in from the outside, we live life with our hands untied
Repeat to outro

Hold Me Down

Hold me down
Don't let me lose control now
I'm hanging on to what I know
I've seen the beauty
And I've seen the darker side
Of what we all live and breathe
See me I want more
I just can't ignore the finer things
I live life through you
In love, laughter and truth
And we're all just passing through
Hold me down
Hold me down
Hold me down
Hold me down
Out on my own now
And I will reap what I sow
I'm realigned
Changing on the inside
Cutting all ties that bind
See me I want more
I just can't ignore the finer things
I live life through you
In love, laughter and truth
And we're all just passing through
Hold me down
Hold me down
Hold me down

From Ashes

Chase the dream
What’s left to believe
Endless roads
Unpicked at the seam
Chorus (Hook)
But I will not hang my head too low
Rose from ashes once before
I’ve come to far just to let this go
Labour of love
But one that deceives
The time, the passion
Strength and belief
Chorus (Hook)
But I will not hang my head too low
Rose from ashes once before
I’ve come to far just to let this go
