HUGHES TURNER PROJECT LYRICS

1. Revelation

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

If I look familiar
It's only what you see
It's your perception
What I used to be
So saturated
I wear a different face
I'm so frustrated
With the human race

No you can't live for me
Don't want your sympathy
The cut's too deep you see
I got your remedy
Do you really wanna go there with me
Don't ya know it's really something to see
Do you really wanna go there with me
Don't ya know it's really something to see

Here comes the change so let's open the door
I'm not the same anymore

Don't want your conversation
Don't need no aggravation
That's when I knew I had a revelation
Don't need no demonstration
I'm in my transformation
That's when I knew I had my revelation

Am I a stranger, am I a friend
But you think you know me
You'd better look again
Feel so infected with all the lies
Get resurrected
Open up your eyes

I got so much to say
You're gonna hear me anyway
Ain't gonna make no big display
So what's up? Get outta my way

Do you really wanna go there with me
Don't ya know it's really something to see
Do you really wanna go there with me
Don't ya know it's really something to see

Here comes the change
So let's open the door
I'm not the same anymore

Don't want no confrontation
Don't need no situation
That's when I knew I had my revelation

Don't want to condemnation
I got my inspiration
That's when I knew I had my revelation

2. Alone I Breathe

[Hughes]

I see the rising of the black cat bone
You are so heavy, make me turn to stone
Give information to me next of kin
Roll up the wheels, now let it begin

Now don't you want to hear the words I say?

Alone I breathe, Alone I grieve
Alone I leave, Alone I breathe

Don't wanna live in no battle ground
You see my picture in the lost and found
Don't wanna sleep with no dogs of war
You're never gonna see my face no more

Now don't you want to hear the words I say?

Alone I breathe, Alone I grieve
Alone I leave, Alone I breathe

I know this really is my destiny
We live and die it's such a shame
Life is so strange but it's no tragedy

But you have no respect for me
You scream in tales of mystery

3. Losing My Head

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

Six degrees of separation
The space between us, you and me
We live a life of desperation
We will collide eventually

It don't bother me
It don't mean a thing
Just let your mine be free

I'm losing my head
I'm going insane
I heard what you said
Your voice in my brain
I'm already gone
My eyes turnin' red
The damage is done
I'm losing my...
You give me too much information
I'm heading for an overload
We gotta change the situation
We gotta take another road

Now what you say to me?
I don't feel a thing
Let your mind be free

[CHORUS]

4. Going My Way

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

Bad luck and trouble
Always following me

Black rain was falling
That's all I could see

I used to think that the dream was reality

Those days are gone now
I'm where I wanna be, I wanna be

No more mountains to climb
No more runnin' down the lost highway
I found my place in time
The sun is shining on me, everyday
It's going my way

Falling from grace
How did I let myself go?

Tell me, what did it take
For me to know, for me to know

I used to think that the dream was reality

Those days are gone now
I'm where I wanna be, I wanna be

[CHORUS]

5. Hold On

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

I don't mean to disturb you
Now dont'cha get me wrong
Although I'll never hurt you
But there's something goin' on
You know I got my suspicions
More than eyes can see
I got a strange intuition and it's haunting me

Now do I have your attention
And do I have your trust
Did I happen to mention
I've seen gold turn to rust

There are some with a power
But they hide their face
And in the darkest hour
They control our fate

We're goin' through the changes
Address unknown, we're gonna rearrange it
And now I see the light
I think it's time to let you know
I'm on my way, so don't let go
Hold on-hold on
Hold on-hold on

Could it all be a daydream
Lies become the truth, nothing is as it seems
I will send you the proof
I don't mean to alarm you
But it's all coming down
You can do what you want to
You can turn it around

[CHORUS]
It's so jaded, let us fall
So related, in us all

6. Lost Dreams

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

It's always deep in my mind
It only happens in my imagination
So tell me how could it be
Well, I've been waiting to see my destination

So tell me is it for real
Is everything that I feel, a fascination
Why don't you give me a sign
Somebody throw me a line, to my salvation

They never heard you
They never came
I don't know what it means
They never call you
It's such a shame
But it's not what it seems
They never hear you
They are the lost dreams

If you will seek, you will find
How come the sun never shines
Inside the blue room
Feel like I've been running blind
Sometimes I break down and cry
Out in the gray gloom

Maybe it's just fantasy
You know you gotta believe
Is all that matters
You gotta give to receive
Or else you find that your life is torn
And shattered

[CHORUS]

7. Time and Time Again

[Hughes/Turner]

Lately you been on my mind
Been so long I don't know why
I guess some memories never fade

We were young and falling fast
We believed that love would last
Whatever happened to the plans we made

I remember the day we met
How we laughed in the the rain
Some things you just can't forget
When you still feel the pain

Oh why, why did we let it go?
I guess I'll never know
How the story ends

Oh I, no matter what I do
I'll always think of you
Time and time again

You went your way, I went mine
Not really sure, what we would find
Funny how our lives have turned round

Thought I saw you on the screen
We were always chasing dreams
I hope that love never lets you down

There's so many years gone by
Way down the line
And I'm always by your side
Here in my mind

Oh why, why did we let it go?
I guess I'll never know
How the story ends
Oh I, I will remember you
And all that we've been through
Time and time again

[CHORUS]

8. Goodbye Friday

[Hughes]

You got no fear
And you're down in the crowd
You lose your senses and
You let it all hang out

You get so high
And you're too damn proud
Tear down the fences
And you know there is no doubt

What do you want from me?
(You say you wrote it in a letter)
You know I wanna be
(And now you know I'm getting better)
And now it's history

If you really want it
How you gonna get it?
If you really need it
How you gonna keep it?

Goodbye Friday
Operator put me through
Goodbye Friday
Now it's time for something new

You gotta move
Gotta beat the clock
You got nothin' till you
Break down Hollywood

You're already in a state of shock
You got something that will take
You down for good}

[CHORUS]

9. Burning The Sky

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

Something's lost, and something's gained
In every word
Listening, to hear the words I've never heard

Life goes on, time is not a friend to me
Almost gone, reaching for my destiny

My spirit is off the ground
I know where my soul can be found

I've been waiting so long
I've been waiting so long to be free
Now I'm floating so high I can see
I'm learning to fly, I'm burning the sky
I'm learning to fly, I'm burning the sky
I'm learning to fly, I'm burning the sky

Live and learn
Who knows what it's all about

Every turn
Leaving me with only doubt

My spirit is off the ground
I know where my soul can be found

[CHORUS]

10. Keep On Shining

[bonus track for the Japan release]

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

Out on the run, down in the street
Living it day after day
Against all the odds, taking the heat
Nothing can stand in our way

Never enough, comin' on strong
I'm gonna make you believe
Love one another, keep moving along
You gotta live to receive

Life on the line, holding on tight
One by one don't you know
Somewhere in time, like a ghost in the night
Take down the sun, here we go

Keep on shining
We're gonna shoot out the lights
Keep on shining
We're gonna burn down the night

The time has come, I want to see
Everyone raising their hands
It can be done, just you and me
Right now we're making a stand

Life on the line, holding on tight
One by one don't you know
Somewhere in time, like a ghost in the night
Take down the sun, here we go

[CHORUS]

Tell me how you feel
Can you see it's real

11. Sofia

[Hughes/Turner/Marsh]

There is no master plan
There is no hologram for you

And now I understand
There's nothing else that I would do

Outside your seven walls
There is no peace at all

Sofia - I couldn't stay
Sofia - I go my way

Now all is said and done
You were the only one for me

Inside the picture frame
There is no one to blame you see

So much we had to give, now I don't wanna live

Sofia - I couldn't stay
Sofia - I go my way
Sofia - the rain will fall
Sofia - after it all

12. Let's Talk About It

[Hughes]

People come and people go
I only wish that they could read the sign
Out on the highway
Levitate to distant drums
They never hear the sound of their own voice
Hidden inside themselves
Heaven is just time and space
I can see the sun shine on your face

I believe in love, and I believe in fate
I will tell you something, I don't live in hate
Hear the rooster calling, hear it call your name
And it sounds so easy, let it burn your flame

So turn up the band and I'm gone
And make no mistake, I'll shine on
So save me some grace, in the pouring rain
Cuz I'll be coming home

Let's talk about it later, until the morning comes
Let's talk about it later, get shelter from the storm
Let's talk about it later, we got to get away
Let's talk about it later, as night turns into day

I'm the midnight flyer, come to set you free
Gonna take you higher down the road, you see
You don't need religion, but you need someone
Indiscreet decision, now the dawn has come

Now I wanna hear the band play
So turn up the music all day
Save me some grace, in the pouring rain
And I'll be coming home

[CHORUS]

People come and people go
I only wish that they could read the sign
Out on the highway
Levitate to distant drums
They never hear the sound of their own voice
Hidden inside themselves
Heaven is just time and space
I can see the sun shine on your face

So turn up the band and I'm gone
And make no mistake, I'll shine on
So save me some grace, in the pouring rain
Cuz I'll be coming home

Oh, people!

[CHORUS]
