Proof is running
Oh so sunny
Lose your thorny heart
You so funny
Got no money
Leave your stony path
Every one can see the elevation of the heart
Revelation constellation
Destination station
Falls apart
Raven tongues
And parlour fun
Better push the button fast
With feet of clay
You seize the day
Gonna drive this wreck so hard
Every one can see the elevation of the heart
Revelation constellation
Destination station
Falls apart
Precious change
And penny planes
Your kingdom come tonight
Like rats we leap
Into the deep
The game is on the rise
Every one can see the elevation of the heart
Revelation constellation
Destination
Destination
Destination station
Falls apart
Gonna drive this wreck right into the wall
Gonna drive this wreck right into the wall
Gonna drive this wreck
Right into the
Right into the
Right into the wall

Light creeps into the circle
And I seem to be in purple
And time takes one more incursion
Inside
So round and round and round and round we go
Yeah round and round and round and round we go
So this vortex is twisted
And spacetime has been enlisted
The truth is wholely unravelled
Today
So round and round and round and round we go
Yeah round and round and round and round we go
The halo it starts to unravel
A fool has hold of the handle
The past and future are somehow
Aligned
So round and round and round and round we go
Yeah round and round and round and round we go
The pattern is done
The costume is spun
You pressed all the buttons
And rode to the sun
So round and round and round and round we go
Yeah round and round and round and round we go

Setting Solo Free
03:17
|
|||
In a distant shadow land
Where all the fevers roam
You promenade a foreign plan
To bring the faithful home
Years come and go
The night it hides your destiny
Yeah
And we’re setting solo free
Poison darts and dalliance
Expecting company
Hidden question decompression
Tested by a queen
Years come and go
The night it hides your destiny
Yeah
And we’re setting solo free
Years come and go
The night it hides your destiny
Yeah
And we’re setting solo free
Let the darkness wash away
Dream of eternity
Fetid tomb and deep decay
The lonely man retrieved
Cruel though you’ll never see
The light, it shows your destiny
Yeah
And we’re setting solo free
Yeah
We’re setting Solo free

Winter Comes A Calling
06:07
|
|||
In the land outside your bed
Where the silence comes a creeping
Hear the golden King is dead
And winter comes a calling
Now you're dream is not alone
For the Titan stands a knocking
Won't you understand
That winter comes a calling
When the dawn is far away
And the setting sun has fallen
When the light is gone
Then winter comes a calling
Time for heroines to rise
And there aint no time for stalling
For the tide is turned
And winter comes a calling
When the prophet speaks his mind
And the faithful hear his warning
I heard
That winter comes a calling
In a world that's frozen cold
When the wolverines are hunting
The blood will rise
And winter comes a calling
When the dawn is far away
And the setting sun has fallen
Now the light is gone
And winter comes a calling

Alta Khan
03:44
|
|||
When you’re watching from the peak of Alta Khan
And the sun is stretching out his big red hand
No amount of sleeping gonna make you awake
Watching seeds falling outta your God’s hand
But you’re driving over parched and stony land
Full of stories and testaments unplanned
I’m a preaching what others should-a known
Howling like a banshee in the night
On the road to Mandalay
Well I just wanna say
Watched the moon rise one dark and sunless night
There ain’t no hiding in this desert paradise
Fears a flavour that can’t be denied

Part 1, Poison Tongues
Used up your yesterdays
Won't hide inside
It's love but I'd rather stay warm
Can't protect the world
Pressed against the wall
April don't wanna know
You seize one never let you break
You're one who prays dollar sane
Wrecked upon the shore
They can hide your poison tongue
But not your cupid heart
Yeah
Oh never not a lay down lie
Oh heaven,
Have your seas run dry
Part 2, Murderous Hearts
Just wanna say boy that-a
She want you
Gotta seize that golden chain
Just gotta have it now
What you seek what you buy
I have everything you wanna do
Everything you wanna be
I just don't wanna stay gone
Ah why you ride
Yeah surely that game ain't wrong man
Rise in that one
You can play a wild with me
You can play a wild in the sun
Yeah one taste of that apple
You can have it on a chain
You can have a want a chain
And see what I have seen
You can see what I can see
I can see
Honey wild
Honey
Wild

The Searching Mind
03:29
|
|||
You sacrificed ascension
For a whispering in your ear
The poison tongues of passion
And the darker things you hear
The world can’t see you
But every thought is here
You’re seeking every murmur
You’re solar
This caravel of light
The light is heavenly
The price you paid for sight
You paid in chemistry
The world can’t see you
But every thought is here
You’re seeking every murmur
You’re solar
This mistral doesn’t sleep here
It floats in entropy
This mistral doesn’t sleep here
It floats in entropy

A Fork In The Road
04:25
|
|||
You widen the cracks and strip out the light
And god knows for sure what is right
It's only a matter of time
You stumble on blistering bones
And stare down the sacred unknown
It's only a matter of time
You'll see one day
There is a fork in the road
The shadows gather, pray
Then you will hear your bell toll
You shut down the lids of your eyes
To keep the dark thoughts well inside
It's only a matter of time
You'll see one day
There is a fork in the road
The shadows gather, pray
Then you will hear your bell toll
You're a veteran of all your past wrongs
And a sentence just raging along
It's only a matter of time
You'll see one day
There is a fork in the road
The shadows gather, pray
Then you will hear your bell toll
You'll see one day
There is a fork in the road
The shadows gather, Hey
Then you will hear,
Then you will hear
Then you will hear
Hear your bell toll
You'll see one day
There is a fork in the road
The shadows gather, pray
Then you will hear your bell toll

Maggies Heart
03:22
|
|||
Treasures
Precious
A life that seems so senseless
Battered
Flattered
Lost all the things that mattered
And as she walks back through the door
Well Maggie’s heart don’t work no more
Processed
Obsessed
But there’s no rest from darkness
Lurching
Searching
A place with no more hurting
And what she writes upon the floor
Says Maggie’s heart don’t work no more
Stolen
Emotion
It’s just a drop in the ocean
Poisoned
Frozen
A world with no compassion
And there’s a light upon the shore
But Maggie’s heart don’t work no more

Storm In A Teacup
03:54
|
|||
There’s always change
You’re always in motion
It might sound strange
A frightening notion
But I want to surf this raging ocean
And fall from the tallest of mountains
Pray to me
Call to me
Come to me
Fall for me
I’m a storm in a teacup of love for you
It’s out of sight
And mired in emotion
Just like a child
You seize the commotion
And I want to surf this raging ocean
And fall from the tallest of mountains
Pray to me
Call to me
Come to me
Fall for me
I’m a storm in a teacup of love for you
Into the night
The deepest devotion
The wildest heart
The only solution
And I want to surf this raging ocean
And fall from the tallest of mountains
Pray to me
Call to me
Come to me
Fall for me
I’m a storm in a teacup of love for you
Pray to me
Call to me
Come to me
Fall for me
I’m a storm in a teacup of love for you

The Bitter End
03:57
|
|||
You go down and try and find
The land at the river’s end
With heads and stones and blood and bones
You trade with the living dead
Don’t tell me your running free
Don’t you see the lightning tree
Is black and burned
And dead at the bitter end
At the bitter end
At the bitter end
It’s dead at the bitter end
All I see is ripped inside
And the sands of the soul are lost on the tide
The breath of the dragon is a desperate slide.
The wings of the devil are a burning ride
Don’t tell me you’re home and free
You can see the lightning tree
Is black and burned
And dead at the bitter end
At the bitter end
At the bitter end
It’s dead at the bitter end
At the bitter end
It’s dead at the bitter end
At the bitter end
It’s dead at the bitter end
At the bitter end
At the bitter end
It’s dead at the bitter end

Rich Black Melbourne, Australia
Heavily guitar oriented with flavours covering a broad gamut from rock through grunge to blues including a few unexpected sidebars, Rich's writing covers a lot of territory. Rich has described his art as ‘kind of a screenplay about the supernatural, science, history and human frailty’ and close scrutiny of the lyrics might support this hypothesis, or not! ... more
