Caranoid 03:00
V1 A Child cup yellow star beam, can you dig it? Streaming and beaming, beaming and flying by. Can I know you? Can we go? To square box soft walled room. Singing the song and you can too. Kneel on the ground Jesus Loves you. Kneel in the sky Jesus loves you V2 Black hole wheel turns; pistols shuffle lives heart beat Click and turn, click and turn; clicking clacking, clicking clacking Aren’t you glad you came? Would you do it again? To sing in the silver cylinder black haired woman. Chorus: Jesus Christos e el Nino Ninety Mile High, I'm a Caranoid (Glory Glory Glory Holy) V3 Down left, up right, not peace but a sword Up right, down left, Die Hiere is lief vir jou (Afrikaans for The Lord Loves You) Wipe Away the tears so you can see what is ahead Monitor the monitors so you can read the vital stats Pulse rate, breathing, temperature and energy But all this will pass if you run out of gas Here is the place fuel can be found...Kneel on the ground! Chorus OUTRO Mukti deliah Yeshu naam, shanti deliah Yeshu naam Mukti deliah Yeshu naam, shanti deliah Yeshu naam (Hindi for Greetings to you in Jesus name, Salvation comes in Jesus name)

Planning, Scheming, Yielding, Learning “Hit the ground and take cover, Put your hand behind your head!” You’ve just seen the Finger of God ...and I know, oh yea, It’s a funky situation, oh my - What is this Salvation? But, I know it’s real and hard sometimes. Adjusting the Machine ...Still I know, I’m more than a creation A real renovation: sweet salvation!!! I...I...I have bona fide sensations Like seeing the stars in the sky or hearing the music in my mind. Like feeling love for the very first time or dancing, dancing, dancing.

Addictions 02:38
Addictions And the nights get longer And the fight is harder And to wander around Looking for air to breathe Air gets harder And the night is longer And it’s hard to breathe

Mother do you see the baby, taste the cup of life But your death, it broke my heart, but my legs are fine so I will carry on. My soul and spirit pours out like wine. My heart, it feels like it stops. So, I look at my watch to keep the time Tell me is it eternity, I don’t know Sometimes I get happy spasms Other times I get angry, Home, family and others I cannot think But most of all I enjoy my friends The purpose of life and reasons I don’t know But this I know, the spirit is our hope. changed from... (but a friend told me the spirit is the pope.)

Verse 1 When I saw her, I thought it was you. She was standing across, across the room. Pre-chorus You are my all things. My all things is you. Chorus If I put body on you, would you hold it against me? (bk voxs: Body) Verse 2 I bought her a drink, gave her a dance, I gave her a lift and she gave me a ride.

Alt ending for the live version... You’ve been weighed, you’ve been measured and you’re found wanting. Repent and receive forgivness of your sins. *“This is what these words mean: • Mene: God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end. • Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting. • Peres: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.” From the NIV Bible, Daniel 5:25-28
