NEONFLY LYRICS

1. Reality Shift

A Nocturne painted on the wall
Eyes looking from the canvas beckoning me
Come with me and set me free
Your senses deceive you
Come with me and you will see this isn't a dream

Afraid I try to run and hide
The colors in my palette seem to have run dry
Take your chance and step inside
A new life is waiting
The voice is not inside your mind the voice is alive

I wish I could see the world I have painted
Step inside make the artwork complete
And those eyes staring back like a mirror
Shift reality

Now I know there's no chance to hide, no chance to get away
No chance to pretend that I don't hear it calling
Come with me and set me free
Your senses deceive you
Come with me and you will see this isn't a dream

I wish I could see the world I have painted
Step inside make the artwork complete
And those eyes staring back like a mirror
Shift reality

Come with me,
Set me free,
Come with me,
Set me free,
Come with me.
Come with me,
Set me free.

Contrast and harmony the painting is complete
There's nobody there, silent and empty
I have come to set you free
I have found the answer
Trapped inside a world of dreams, where's reality?

I wish I could see the world I have painted
Step inside make the artwork complete
And those eyes staring back like a mirror
Shift reality

2. Broken Wings

Your empty eyes are looking my way
I know you've tried it many times before
A broken glass is all you need
You see the white light and the open door

A world of lies and shattered dreams
Has tossed you in the gutter
You try to fly with broken wings
But you keep on falling

Rise above the ashes
Don't be afraid
To stand and face the masses

A one-eyed prophet
To lead the blind
To kill the outcast
Stand up and fight

Stand up and fight!
Stand up and fight!

You live in fear and segregation
All fingers point at you and you don't want
To play their game and have your share
You have the power to resist the floods

The fools are gathering again
Fighting for the spotlight
Turn your back and walk away
Now!

Rise above the ashes
Don't be afraid
To stand and face the masses

A one-eyed prophet
To lead the blind
To kill the outcast
Stand up and fight

A world of lies and shattered dreams
Has tossed you in the gutter
You try to fly with broken wings
But you keep on falling

The fools are gathering again
Fighting for the spotlight
Turn your back and walk away
Now!

Rise above the ashes
Don't be afraid
To stand and face the masses

A one-eyed prophet
To lead the blind
To kill the outcast
Stand up and fight

Rise above the ashes
Don't be afraid
To stand and face the masses

A one-eyed prophet
To lead the blind
To kill the outcast
Stand up and fight

Stand up and fight!
Stand up and fight!
Stand up and fight!

Run Free, run free, run free
Yeah!

3. Ship With No Sails

There's a rumor in the night,
A distant face that memory
Has brought back to my door

I assumed it would fade away
Time didn't kill it after all

Why do we try to hide from yesterday?
Erase our footsteps in the sand

The gate is open but it's cold and dark
The siren calls from beyond
You pay the price - and you pray for salvation
But all you get is desolation

Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns
All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone
Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step
There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sails

Seasons wasted wondering why
You were too weak to move on
A silent scream, an empty cry for
Someone to carry you home

The demon tries to take control again
Nightmares appear in your mind
Afraid to fly - like a bird in a cage
No chance to leave this earthly prison

Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns
All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone
Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step
There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sails

There's a newborn star that lights your way in the dark
You have to reach out and take it.
All the poison you drank will be drained from your heart
Come and dance with the minstrel - Leave your fears behind
The vision's fading,
The winds are blowing,
But no one answers the call

You always tried to hide from yesterday
Remove the traces of your past

Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns
All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone
Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step
There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sails

4. I Think I Saw A UFO

What's that thing above the clouds
Making circles with its tail
I know I haven't seen that thing before

Could it be they're finally here?
Have they been waiting all these years?
And could that thing be called a UFO?

I know they're green I know they're fast
I know that Elvis is alive
They took him more than 20 years ago

And maybe they're outside your door
Alien footsteps on the floor
You know you're never coming back no more

Unidentified flying object in the sky
I'm not out of my mind

I think I saw a U.F.O.
I think I saw a U.F.O.
I think I saw a U.F.O.
I think I saw a U.F.O.

Unidentified flying object in the sky
I'm not out of my mind

I think I saw a U.F.O.
I think I saw a U.F.O.
I think I saw a U.F.O.
I think I saw a U.F.O.

Here they come!

5. Gonna Shoot You Right Down

Heartbreaker
Caught in a web of broken dreams
When you face reality
Life's not as easy as it seems

No time
To cry
This time we take no prisoners

Smile for the cameras
Until you choke on vanity
You'll make the headlines
You blow them all away, you're only seventeen

Dream of life among the stars and shiny silver diamonds
There's a price to pay for that, and a gun that's gonna shoot you right
Down!
And a gun that's gonna shoot you right down

Heartbreaker
You're back again out on the streets
Just because someone broke your heart doesn't mean
That I'll be there to dry your tears

Take all your chances
And try to steal the show from me
No easy feat babe
My weapon's loaded and the devil's on the scene

Heartbreaker

You can spend your money and spend your time
You can waste your life if it gives you peace of mind
Then you change your ways and pretend you're fine
You're not fooling me!!!

Dream of life among the stars and shiny silver diamonds
There's a price to pay for that, and a gun that's gonna shoot you right
You thought you had a chance but nobody cares and nobody wants
To see you on that screen they're always gonna shoot right
Down!

And a gun that's gonna shoot you right
Heartbreaker
