1.	Blue Whale 04:17	lyrics	buy track
Blue Whale Where do you want to be? There’s a great big ocean calling, and that’s a start I want to be in that aura please, in the wind, in the glare, in a prism’s scattered flares, throw me everywhere, throw me everywhere I know sleeping’s not so good for the day, and after all I’m tired of seeing the same old the same way No need for belief when the vision’s right before your eyes There you go, there you go, look at you go That’s the kinda thing that can never lose zing Here I go, here I go, out from the stale, sailing round the curve like a big blue whale A Big Blue Whale, splash! So what do I wanna see? Something real, with feel, right here in true reality Don’t want to imagine it, navigating on the seas of truth it was likely I’d find you, yeah you Lucid dreams are not so good for the day And after all I’m longing for the season of sun rays Out from the deep, reminding me to stop and play There you go, there you go, look at you go That’s the kinda thing that can never lose zing Here I go, here I go, out from the stale, sailing round the curve like a big blue whale Like a big blue whale, yeah a big blue whale, yeah! Chasing dreams is just a journey it seems And after all I’m trying to leave behind what I don’t need No use for a tall tale, I just want to be the best of me There you go, there you go, look at you go That’s the kinda thing that can never lose zing Here I go, here I go, out from the stale, sailing round the curve like a big blue whale There you go, smiling like a champ, you’re a big blue whale Here I go, sailing round the curve with a big blue whale Out from the stale, break the water’s surface, hello big blue whale Yeah, cause right now in my world there’s a big blue whale, yeah a big blue whale, yeah a big blue whale With a big blue splash!

More Than Sound NA NA NA NA The aircraft has touched down Live on the stage, the show is off the ground More than sound, for a roaring crowd, She’s the Queen of Anisong NA NA NA NA NA NA She, rides the express, in a white dress. On a T Rex. Really? Yes, on a T Rex Day or night, rain or shine The pros in the band standby till The aircraft has touched down Live in the park, the show is off the ground More than sound, for a roaring crowd, She’s the Queen of Anisong, now it’s on! From Anime to stadiums, well done I have to say it looks like fun, when you run From pop to rock and dance to punk In one song All who attend in unison, everyone! We may go googoo gaga yes, or grande instead. Or swiftly we may shake and dance, there are so many crowns, but you may wear them all! On a piano, with a saxophone, playing the harp strings, singing low to high While riding the sky, can’t believe your eyes. 18 wheeler drive to the center of stage. Under rainbow lights Go NA NA NA NA! Go NA NA NA NA! The aircraft has touched down Live on the stage, the show is off the ground More than sound, for a deserving crowd She’s the Queen of song She’s the Queen of song, She’s the Queen of Anisong! NA NA NA NA NA NA You go!
3.	October Sky 04:41	lyrics	buy track
October Sky A blanket overcast The last night for the past For the frigid air will greet us in the morning Been here before Fluorescent lights and white floors And just beyond those double doors I wait Where minutes feel like days, ready in my haze Make way for the King has arrived A sunburst in the October Sky Not everything gives way to the Winter on this day We waited for A knock knock knock A knock knock knock But you kicked the door down I know I have it easy And I feel it isn’t fair I roll the carpet for her Majesty As we leave the building I can feel the love and grace, I tighten up the woolly hat that frames your fresh new face This Autumn draft is blessed Make way for my King has arrived A sunburst in the October Sky Not everything gives way to the Winter on this day We waited for A knock knock knock A knock knock knock But you kicked the door down First you crawl and then you run Trade my sleep for your fun Play a little drums, a guitar you can strum I pray that I can be, all the King may need If the sun can rise in Fall, then I know that you’ll stand tall, and take your crown! Make way for my King has arrived A sunburst in the October Sky Not everything gives way to the Winter on this day We waited for A knock knock knock A knock knock knock But you kicked the door down, wear your crown! A sunburst in the October Sky A sunburst in the Autumn Sky A sunburst in the Autumn Sky A sunburst in the October Sky

In The Visible Summer 1254, at my door, like a new sun, on a new day I can sense it, all around, world keeps moving, ever more Sacred is your stare There’s music in the warm air Sacred is your hot touch A taste of what is almost here In the visible summer When the love is in high vibration Oh, In the visible summer All of us connected in a stream of endless days Call your angels, need them close by, drop your heartache, it’s July Jump in the water of life Sacred is your stare I feel it when you look this way Sacred is your hot touch It burns good when you touch me In the visible summer When the love is in high vibration Oh, In the visible summer Soak, soak in the stream of hard earned play Meet me in the heat! In the visible summer When the love is in high vibration Oh, In the visible summer Hold, hold my hand in the fields of forever my friend In the visible summer, come on! In the visible summer! All of us in harmony sing on in the visible summer! In the visible summer!
5.	The Opera 05:16	lyrics	buy track
The Opera Center of a crossroad right in the middle of a ghost town Night so quiet my mind’s a saloon on a dirt hill X, X marks, X marks these cursed grounds Strawberry Moon, well it’s June, but I want more and I want it soon A better tune. This jukebox has no more to play, turn the page, turn my page Draw You go away! Draw Draw Draw!!! First there’s GOD, next Godless, then GOD bless these holy grounds Abandoned the plains for those mountains in the distance Cause it was all about those Hollywood velvet curtains In the mines for the gold, cause I wanted more than silver and stone Hit the highway, that’s the life way For those who go to war for fame Go to war for fame Draw Turn away! Draw Draw Draw!!! The Opera keeps going on and it’s grasping strong, like corundum on clinging rock. The Opera sings you messages of grandeur, and now the world you knew is gone. The Opera gives a Royal impression but really, it’s just another worn down bar. In a small town, in that old town The Opera lied! The Opera lied! Draw Draw! Draw Start again! Draw Draw Draw!!! The Opera knows your heart is true, nothing to lose, you’ll trade beats for those so called dreams Royal blood like raindrops on a red rose, I’m ready to go home to you! Draw!!! I am home!
6.	Leather Jacket (Light a Fire and Fly) 06:40	lyrics	buy track
Leather Jacket (light a fire and fly) (I’m going to take you to a place. In a city, in a district, on a planet, in a galaxy, billions of light years away. In another time. Listen. Listen!) First growl of thunder wakes us like a warning call, rain starts to fall down A giant city rat scatters past the dead end road, a dystopian nightmare Time, has been ticking away Cold, from the chill of the pain Now it is time, for ghouls come out at night. We’ll light a fire and fly Once upon a joyous yesterday there was laughter, then they took it all away One moment we were loving in some drunken karaoke, now we hide from uncertainty It’s time, we will unite in the cold Not scared cause the red eyes don’t blink, they are weak. And Zombies don’t even think. We’ll light a fire and fly! As the clock nears midnight it’s do or die! Put your leather jacket on it is time! (These leather jackets shield them from trolls, goblins, zombies, and all the creepy crawlies in the shadows) Wear the leather jacket, wear it tight Wear the leather jacket it will save your life Wear the leather jacket it keeps you safe, wear the leather jacket it’s a cloak of faith Wear the leather jacket, keep it tight Wear the leather jacket we’ll win the fight Caught in the shadow don’t freeze See it’s freedom we seek and trolls crave control They’ll attack all around, but we will light a fire and fly Right in the eye of their storm Time has been ticking away Cold from the chill of the rain Now it is time, don’t give in to fright Zombies will fry!!! We’ll light a fire and fly The clock has just hit midnight, unite! In your leather jacket light the sky! (And they all wore their leather jackets, for they come in all colors and shapes and sizes. Red ones, White ones, Blue ones, Black ones, Gray ones, Studded ones, and Shiny ones!) We have beat the night and claimed back what was lost, sing woah! The city’s streets come alive with our freedom, sing woah! Slam, the thunder still rolls The rats, they still roam through the holes but it’s we who decide! Always light the fire inside! With a leather jacket on you and I (And for those who want to know. The leather jackets were their identity, their faith, their inner strength. The fire would combine and ignite their spirit. I am just a messenger for a story that happened long ago. In a place, that to this day, still look up to the infinite sky and endlessly wonder.)
7.	Promised Land 06:10	lyrics	buy track
Promised Land Traveling on, there’s a galaxy right beyond this void. As I punch in the coordinates I still get that feeling again. From here to Andromeda, in search of a seed that takes hold, within an icy waste of a lifeless terrain I see your face. Where is the pulse that syncs with mine Where is the Promised Land? The Promised Land The Promised Land All sides of the universe, this nomadic spirit drifts Alpha and the Omega you can see what is within Far ahead of those introverted days Can’t connect dots when you’re stuck inside a cage, forever is just long enough to find you I turn up the music, cause Rock has a way, of making me feel, like everything is gonna be ok, I’m on my way to The Promised Land The Promised Land Meet me at the star station, a body and mind refuel of patience Galaxy of Wonder, Woman of Thunder, show me the Promised land! Flower in space, in a lonely drift, oh how I wish I could touch your face The Promised Land The Promised Land The Promised Land The Promised Land Meet me at nebula station, a desolate place but it’s worth a shot Galaxy of Wonder, Woman of Thunder, come to me you are the Promised land! Traveling on, there’s a blue planet right beyond that star. As I punch in the coordinates I still get that feeling again, and again.
