Echoes
(Latimer/Bardens/Ward)
Out of the mist
Rising, ten thousand navajo braves
Shining like golden eagles in flight
Climbing high on the plain
Born of the Earth
Set free to ride away with the sun
So free to sing in tune with the world
Gladly, dance for the rain
So many moons have flown
Now all your ghosts dance along shadows
War cries that died on your lips
Echo above the plain

Song Within A Song
(Latimer/Bardens)
The sun has left the sky
Now you can close your eyes
Leave all the world behind until tomorrow
The dream is like a song
It leads you on and on
The piper plays his tune so you must follow
So far beyond the sky
Not knowing how or why
You realize the feeling is forever
And though another day
May steal your dreams away
You and the song will always stay together
Remote Romance
(Latimer/Watkins)
It's automatic
There's too much static
Ooh your signal's fading
Life is more baiting
Ooh your signal's fading
Remote - remote, romance - romance
Remote - remote, romance - romance
Push-button passion
I won't repeat it (x3)
Wait a minute
Wait a minute now
Remote - remote, romance - romance
Remote - remote, romance - romance
It's just a sequence
It makes no real sense
Just a sequence
It makes no real sense
It's automatic
There's too much statix
Can't get no feed-back
I'm on the wrong track
It's just a sequence
It makes no real sense
Just a sequence
It makes no real sense
Wait a minute, wait a minute
It just don't make a lot of sense
Just a sequence
It makes no real sense...

Drafted
(Latimer/Hoover)
In reply to your request, please find...
I hereby protest.
To the ways and means you use
You know... I cannot refuse.
So I'll take this vow of Loyalty.
Fight for the right,
You have said,
To be free.
When this time has run its course,
I must... live without remorse.
For the deeds I'm bound to do,
I know... it's all the same to you.
But I won't forget the memory...
Taking a life,
For a life...
To be free.
Lies
(Latimer/Hoover)
Tell me no lies, has peace arrived...
Or, is this some kind of joke ?
What a surprise, you don't realise...
There's some things you don't own.
Can you disguise, can you simplify...
This change you put me through ?
Can you revive, and will I survive...
This life you've brought me to ?
Can you disguise, can you simplify...
This change you put me through ?
Tell me no lies, has peace arrived...
Or, is this some kind of joke ?

Unevensong
(Latimer/Bardens/Ward)
Sleepless nights, restless days
Memories of the gentle ways
Love locked out looks for a home
A place to find a shelter from the storm
She said you are the air I breathe
The life I love, the dream I weave
Without a word, with just a touch
Now I realize you meant so much
Been awake so long
I feel like I belong
With the rain
Morning light appears
The feelings of the night
Remains
Somewhere in between
The waking and the dream
Feel you close to me
Rainbow's End
(Latimer/Bardens)
We began by sharing more together
Black against white made in our mind
But things are different now, we've grown apart
So it's ok, call it a day
What can I say
Let's just remember what we have
Keep out looking for that rainbow, rainbow - Rainbow's end
And when you find that rainbow, rainbow - Start again
I know now that it all seems wrong
But you had no choice
Change is a thing we can't avoid
And even though we're singing different song
Life still left, time will pass
You and I will always get back
So keep on looking for that rainbow, rainbow - Rainbow's end
And when you find the rainbow, rainbow - Start again
So keep on looking for that rainbow, rainbow - Start again
I hope you find the rainbow, rainbow - Rainbow's end
