CHRIS CAFFERY LYRICS

1. Seasons Change

One by one, step by step
You never gave me time
All I know, no regrets
I leave them all behind

Can you see the signs?
The changing in my eyes
It's no surprise
As I say goodbye
When I say goodbye

The rubber face
That seals the hate
Has made it's mistakes
It's time to replace
Some things as

All seasons change
Like a whispering wind
Grown to a hurricane's rage
All seasons change
Like a rotating door
The stories will take me away

[Solo]

Trial by fire
You'll get burned
I never seem to learn
Lose the life to a king
The pawn begins to sing

Can you feel the sight
Emotions come alive
It's too late to cry
The oceans do not lie
Don't ask me why

The rubber face
That seals the hate
Has made it's mistakes
It's time to replace
Some things as

All seasons change
Like a whispering wind
Grown to a hurricane's rage
All seasons change
Like a rotating door
The stories will take me away

[Solo]

All seasons change
Like a whispering wind
Grown to a hurricane's rage
All seasons change
For the rest of my life
The stories will take me away

[Solo]

[x8]
I've learned the lesson of life
I've earned the lesson of life

2. House Of Insanity

In the storm of roses
A great fire arises
Illuminates the night in thorns
A fallen love is haunting
Rising from the sand
Eloquent, evil
And demand

We waited nightly
Mid-day dreaming
In my madness
Illusion scheming
Blackened suns
Of ages locked
Inside the laughter madmen flee
From the house of insanity

In the dead of sun walk
A winter storm of thunder
Of cold deceit
Please let me be
Now the night is falling
on his
Alas, the child is a man

We waited nightly
Mid-day dreaming
In my madness
Illusion scheming
Blackened suns
Of ages locked
Inside the laughter
madmen flee
From the house of insanity

[Solos]

We waited nightly
Mid-day dreaming
In my madness
Illusion scheming
Blackened suns
Of ages locked
Inside the laughter
madmen flee
From the house of insanity

House of insanity

3. I Won't Know

I surrender to the theory
That in time
Everything will get better
I see changes in the realm
Most don't seem right
No regret from the master

The pollution sends
The heat arising
Never though the
Seasons could end
Far from winter into
Days we find the sun
Melting dreams of pleasure

We are heading in
A new direction this time
Too late to change
100 years of thoughtless minds

Many say the end is coming
Blame myself, humanity
Don't ask me for the answers
I won't know

Lost horizons
Luminescent in my mind
Remembered day dreams
Words of wisdom they
Escape in space and time
But the heat remains

We are hading in the
Wrong direction this time
Feel the wrath of 100 years
Of thoughtless minds

Whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa
I won't know

Many say the end is coming
Blame myself, humanity
Don't ask me for the answers
I won't know

Imagine the unthinkable
A humanoid demise
As the years start to give
Mankind starts to take
Genocide
Who will survive?

[Solo]

[x2]
Whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa, whoa oh whoa
I won't know
won't know

I surrender to the theory
That in time
Everything will get better
I see changes in the realm
Most just ain't right
Time to meet your maker

[Solos]

Many say the end is coming
Blame myself, humanity
I'd like to think I have the answers
But I wont know
Many say the end is coming
Blame myself, humanity
Don't ask me for the answers
I won't know

I won't know
Oh, I won't know
I won't know

4. The Fleas

Through the fires of night
The warrior feels the
Start of the fight
Through the light in your eyes
The blackest cold
Is brighter make it right, alright

Through the mystery seam
There's cover fire
by a haze
In the purple rain
It's black and white
He only feels the pain
Pain, pain
Pain, pain
Pain, pain

The personalities
Are never as they seem
The music makes you scream
Oh, oh
The personalities
Are never as they seem
The music makes you scream
We're back to fight the fleas
Fight the fleas

[Solo]

Like the stars at night
We can't control
The ones we have in sight
But the ones we see
Not always shine
Much brighter
Brilliantly

[Solo]

Oh, opinions are insane
For months and months
You slave right down the drain
Slain by the ones who are for free
But the ones who pay
They never are as vain (pain)

Vain, Pain
Vain, Pain
Vain, Pain
Vain, Pain

The personalities
Are never as they seem
The music makes you scream
Oh oh
The personalities
Are never as they seem
The music makes you scream
We're back to fight the fleas
Fight the fleas

[Solo]

The personalities
Are never as they seem
The music makes you scream
Oh oh
The personalities
Are never as they seem
The music makes you scream
I'm back to fight the fleas
Fight the fleas

Vain, Pain
Vain, Pain
Vain, Pain
Vain, Pain
Oh pain

5. Madonna

As it falls, I see
The lights in the space
Around me
It's bitter and cold
On the banks of the stream
True love, it seems
Takes the course
That never runs smooth
But it's worth it to me
To fight the art
So will be

I believe that destiny
Replaces the wall of sadness
Your love is all I need
It's caught in a web
That surrounds me

Did you ever see Madonna?
My heart is lost without her
Each day apart we breathe
Is taking the life from me

As I try to sleep
(Oh Madonna)
The dark of the night
Surrounds me
What's missing in life
I'll try to find in my dreams
When I wake, I see
(Oh Madonna)
The empty space that
Lies beside me
It's bitter and cold
(Bitter and cold)
Where the warmth used to be

I believe that destiny
Replaces the wall of sadness
Your love is all I need
It's caught in a web
That surrounds me
Oh yeah yeah

Did you ever see Madonna?
My heart is lost without her
Each day apart we breathe
Is taking the life from me
And every day that I'm alone
My bleeding heart
It turns to stone
Deep inside I must believe
In the end you'll be with me

Oh life's too short for pain
How can I start to live again?

[Solo]

I believe that destiny
Replaces the wall of sadness
Your love is all I need
It's caught in the web
That surrounds me

Did you ever see Madonna?
My heart is lost without her
Each day apart we breathe
Is taking the life from me
And every day that I'm alone
My bleeding heart
It turns to stone
Deep inside I must believe
In the end you'll be with me

[Solo]

Yeah
Each day away
I takes my life away

6. Big Brother

[Solo]

I know a thing or two
About you
The clothes you wear
The colour hair
The search
Will find you and bind you

He who walks
Amongst the rows
My eyes do not close
You live to be free
But I always see
When you think you're
Safe and all alone
Big brother is watching you

Of the principle pompous
We are the hunter's army
Bind you, we'll find you

He who walks
Amongst the rows
My eyes do not close
You live to be free
But I always see
The start to the end
So do not pretend
My electric eye, he sees
Thirty million currently
When you think you're
Safe and all alone
Big brother is watching you

[Solo]

Bring us in

He who walks
Amongst the rows
My eyes do not close
You live to be free
But I always see
The start to the end
So do not pretend
My electric eye, he sees
Thirty million currently
When you think you're
Safe and all alone
Big brother is watching you

Just when you think
You're safe in your home
Big brother is watching you

7. Back's To The Wall

Facing ice in the wind
Brace yourself for the fall
Neon lights, all colours will bleed
Gotta fight for it all

In the circle we dance to be free
Wait relentlessly, please let me be
Music protects me in tonight
Rise to the call

[x2]
Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa
Now my back's to the wall

Endless nights, they begin
Side by side, see them fall
Takes your mind on a mystical spin
Full of life curtain calls

In the moonlight we dance to be free
Feel the power unleashed deep in me
Open my heart and my mind
Words to thrall

[x2]
Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa
Now my back's to the wall

[Solo]

Did you really think
Like the yolk, you wont fall?
In this bottomless pit
Your back's to the wall
Carry on
Question fate
might
Must survive
Back's to the wall
Heal my soul
Take my hand
Stop my pain

[Solo]

In the circle we dance to be free
Wait relentlessly, please let me be
Music protects me in life
Safe from the fall

[x4]
Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa
Whoa oh whoa
Now my back's to the wall

[Solos]

8. Solitaire

[Solo]

Lie four aces ahead of you
Show the cards
Dealer call them out too
Face of the King to
The right of the Ace
Joker is crying
It's all a disgrace
Ah yeah

Continue the deal
Til your deck is used up
Loaded and losing
Face down on your luck

Hearts on fire
Spades admire
Make life an adventure
For the devil may care
If it's whether you
Win and I lose
Good luck with your millions
I'll play solitaire
I'll play solitaire

[Solo]

Fifty two the pawn
He never rests
King of kings
The devil placed his bets
There's something up his sleeve
Ace of spades, he deals again
Jack of clubs, he bleeds

Hearts on fire
Spades admire
Make life an adventure
For the devil may care
If it's whether you
Win and I lose
Good luck with your millions
I'll play solitaire
I'll play solitaire
I'll play solitaire

[Solo]

Hearts on fire
Spades admire
Make life an adventure
For the devil may care

9. I'm Sorry

If I died tomorrow
Oh, oh
Ooh, oh
Would you still remember me?
Oh, oh
Ooh, ooh, yeah

Time, he marches
An army in sections of
Seconds mocking me
Repulsive yet
In the eyes of the blind
It's me that they see
Who bleeds them?
Yet they're bleeding my blood
Killing the faith in me, yeah

If I died tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
Would you laugh in silence
Like you did when
You did not believe?
If I died tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
Would you take
The chance like me
To pray, admit mistakes
And say I'm sorry

In the aftermath
We survey our loses
Some gone eternally
We mount our crosses
Broken hearts, they're burning

If I died tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
Would you laugh in silence
Like you did when
You did not believe?
If I died tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
Would you take
The chance like me
To pray, admit mistakes
And say I'm sorry
I'm sorry

[Solo]

Broken hearts, they're burning

If I died tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
Would you laugh in silence
Like you did when
You did not believe?
If I died tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
Would you take
The chance like me
To pray, admit mistakes
And say I'm sorry
Oh!

[Solo]

10. Shame

Ghosts roam the ruins
In the dead
Blackened blindness

Wheels turn in circles
Help me now holy mother
In the backyard of the church
They worship nightly
Crucify the angels
of our salvation

Forever and ever
You may run and hide
The mirror's a strange
Wrapping mouths with
The danger tonight

Oh feel the shame
(Feel the shame)
I'm not ashamed
(Feel the shame)

[Solo]

Mother terror bless
This five legged suckling
Out of the valley rides his
Surprises help me
Deep in the forest
Can you hear the trees fall?
As they the angels
Sever all relations

Forever and ever
You may run and hide
The mirror's a strange
Wrapping mouths with
The danger tonight

Oh feel the shame
(Feel the shame)
I'm not ashamed
(Feel the shame)

Shame on you!

[Solo]

Forever and ever
You may run and hide
The mirror's a strange
Wrapping mouths with
The danger tonight
(Tonight)

Oh feel the shame
(Feel the shame)
I'm not ashamed

[Solo]

I'm not ashamed
Oh
Yeah
Feel the shame
Yeah
Shame on you
(Feel the shame)

11. Winter In Hamburg

It was- winter in Hamburg
The first time I came
My life changed for me
I realized I belonged
In this place
Just a bright eyed kid
A rock n roll dream
My friends and a beer
The world fell that year
The faces, the smiles
Erase the miles
Like home away from home
Winter in Hamburg

I read the books
Millions of lives been here
Many nations at war
Fight to be free
But everything changed
After 9-1-1
It was never the same
The end had begun

I never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
Right before my eyes
It fade away

It was winter in Hamburg
The next time I came
My life changed for me
I realized I belonged
In this place
Just a bright eyed kid
A rock 'n roll dream
My friends and a beer
My golden years
The faces, the smiles
Erase the miles
Like home away from home
Winter in Hamburg

[x4]
All alone
(All alone)
Guns aligner
(Aligner)
Help me find my home
(Will I ever get home)

[Solo]

All alone
(All alone)
Guns aligner
(Aligner)
Help me find my home

It was winter in Hamburg
The last time I came
My life changed for me
I realized something's wrong
In this place
Still a bright eyed kid
His rock 'n roll dream
My friends were not here
I shed a tear
I can't find the smiles
To erase the miles
It's cold away from home
Winter in Hamburg

12. No Matter What

[Solo]

Ooh yesterday's gone
Ooh time to move on

(Save, save, save)
Save me
The men where I stand
(I must feel you)
Help me in time to see
Why give to you
When you can give to me

Afraid of change, rearrange
Unknown
Must escape reality
Unknown

No matter what
No matter when
Do not regret
Your life my friend
When time is up
You can't pretend
No matter what
Your life will end

[Solo]

(Feel, feel, feel)
Feel me
My presence is known
(I must feel you)
Help me
I can not return
Lost in life
I will die alone

Afraid of change, rearrange
Unknown
Must escape reality
Unknown

No matter what
No matter when
Do not regret
Your life my friend
When time is up
You can't pretend
No matter what
Your life will end

[Solos]

Afraid of change, rearrange
Unknown
Must escape reality
Unknown

No matter what
No matter when
Do not regret
Your life my friend
When time is up
You can't pretend
No matter what
Your life will end

No matter what
No matter when
Do not regret
Your life my friend
When time is up
You can't pretend
No matter what
Your life will end

Get up, stand up

You will look for yours on earth
And now you see the light

We sick an' tired of-a
Your ism-skism game
Dyin' to go to heaven
In-a Jesus' name, lord
We know when we understand
Almighty god is a living man

Some people sometimes
But you can't fool all
The people all the time
So now we see the light
(What you gonna do?)
We gonna stand up for our rights!

Don't give up the fight!
(Jah)
