"Bury Me In Sound" by onevoice
This blank canvas of a world
Instantly coloured and given shape
Show me behind everything
Home is where you are
Safe in your arms, in your atmosphere
Show me beneath everything
Poetry speaks a little louder
When clumsy words are not enough
Within a song you can find the answers without shame
Bury me in sound I want to sleep awake
In the warmth of your loving embrace
Paint me a world I've never seen before
Using only my everyday
Bury me in sound I want to dream awake
In the warmth of your loving embrace
Build me a wall that no one outside can break
Through the window of your love I see now
Bury me...
This warm view of the world
Seen through the eyes of an older man
Though everything has changed
Its still the same as it was
Thanks to your lyrics and melody
Not everything must fade
The truth ain't so hard to swallow
When it is pleasing to the ear
Within a song you can find the answers without shame
Bury me in sound I want to sleep awake
In the warmth of your loving embrace
Paint me a world I've never seen before
Using only my everyday
Bury me in sound I want to dream awake
In the warmth of your loving embrace
Build me a wall that no one outside can break
Through the window of your love I see now (X2)
Bury me...

"The Dreamcatcher" by onevoice
He taught me how to sleep
And I promised to record my dreams
He says the one's that make me shiver
Will never go away if I don't pen them down
He tells me what they mean
And I promised I would never lie
The one's I'd rather not remember
Will never go away if I don't pen them down
Oh, Dreamcatcher
While I sleep,
Do you feed
Me my dreams? (X2)
Just as a stem brings forth its leaves
So do our dreams bring forth the things we need to see
Through pen & paper, they'll be our teachers
Bringing us lessons from inside
Don't think that He can't hear you pray
His replies are dreams, our silent, inner play
If you evade them, they'll never tell you
All of the secrets that they hide
I saw her in my sleep
And she took me to her favorite place
A tiny dock beside the river
We sat there for a while, then she pushed me in
He told me what she said
While my life the river swallowed whole
She shook her head and then she told me,
You'll drown in all your fear unless you learn to swim
Oh, Dreamcatcher
While I sleep,
Do you feed
Me my dreams? (X2)
Just as the sky brings forth the snow
So do our dreams bring forth the things we need to know
Through pen & paper, they'll be our teachers
Bringing us lessons from inside
Don't think that He can't hear you scream
Everything you asked to know is in your dreams
If you evade them, they'll never tell you
All of the secrets that they hide
Just as a stem brings forth its leaves
So do our dreams bring forth the things we need to see
Through pen & paper, they'll be our teachers
Bringing us lessons from inside
Don't think that He can't hear you pray
His replies are dreams, our silent, inner play
If you evade them, they'll never tell you
All of the secrets that they hide

"Heartship" by onevoice
I will always let my heart soar
'Cuss when it does it takes the world along for the ride
I will always let my heart dream
'Cuss when it does it opens up and welcomes you inside
Don't try to tell me its wrong
'Cuss I won't believe you
Love is an invitation
Joy's an outstretched hand
Make sure your doors are open
When your heartship lands
I will always let my heart fly
High above this sullen world to dance amongst the stars
They will always let my heart know
Of the beauty of this world you can't see when you're low
Don't try to tell me its wrong
'Cuss I won't believe you
Love is an invitation
Joy's an outstretched hand
Make sure your doors are open
When your heartship lands
Stop Waiting
And start participating
Life is yours
Choose to live
There's a new day
In me that I can show you
Life is yours
Choose to live
Love is an invitation
Joy's an outstretched hand
Make sure your doors are open
When your heartship lands

Before This Life

"Before This Life" by onevoice
I found it in a drawer, a book I recognized
I'd read it as a child, tales from another time
I'd always thought the stories were a bit too familiar...
The raging sea, the roaring wind
(We'd lost all sight of land, caught inside a ruthless storm)
The crew lost hope, the ship caved in
(My pride was just too strong, never let us just turn back)
The water's hands, they grabbed me tight
(Never again will I hold, the ones I left back home)
My final breath, then fade to white
(Was this the me before this life?)
Walking past the displays, an unknown artifact
A distant memory, my reoccurring nightmare...
My weakening legs, the sweltering sun
(Pulling limestone brick by brick, underneath the eyes of Ra)
The Gods see all, no where to run
(Why work until we bleed, just to aid a merciless king?)
The desert sands, they stole my sight
(Each step upon this Earth, I hoped would be my last)
My final breath, then fade to white
(Was this the me before this life?)
I've lived before, and will again
My path will change, but never end
I'm not afraid that soon I might
Take my last breath, and fade to white
(And take a step beyond this life)

"Storm Cloud" by onevoice
I'm trapped inside
I'm trapped inside you
I'm trapped in time
The time in between
When I found you
And you fooled me
Come down by the water
The weather's so nice now
Soon I'll be a storm cloud
And wash you away
Its cold beside
Its cold beside you
The warmth you gave
You took it all back
When I found you
And you fooled me
Come down by the water
The weather's so nice now
Soon I'll be a storm cloud
And wash you away
Rest your head
You have gone so many sleepless nights
Stop your tears
Don't be wasteful, save them for the one
Rest your head
You have gone so many sleepless nights
Stop your tears
Don't be wasteful, save them for the one
Who loves you right

Fragile Dreamer

"Fragile Dreamer" by onevoice
He feels alive
When the sun shines
And theres nothing he can do
To hold it in
The simple life
Yeah, its alright
Because living in the now
Is all he needs
Head in the clouds
So he might as well reach for the stars
He knows full well
That everyone has got a song inside their heart
Fragile dreamer, hopes so high they could fall
Parents screaming hearing them down the hall
Dropped out of school just so he could write a song
They're telling him his priorities are wrong
Classic rock posters all over his wall
Walks in giant footsteps but feels so small
And to them it might seem he's kinda lost his way
But he's got a dream and he'll chase it everyday
Black and white
He's up all night
Hammering away the keys
With tired hands
The window seat
Watching the trees
As they dance beside the wind
For inspiration
Mind on the moon
So he might as well shout from the heavens
He knows full well
That everyone has got one voice that's all their own
Fragile dreamer, heart so full it could burst
In the background wishing he'd come in first
He got a job just to buy a new guitar
They're telling him he won't make it very far
Wrote a song for a girl he never had
Shame he's more in love with his pen and pad
And to them it might seem he's kinda lost his way
But he's got a dream and he'll chase it everyday
Fragile dreamer, hopes so high they could fall
Parents screaming hearing them down the hall
Dropped out of school just so he could write a song
They're telling him his priorities are wrong
Classic rock posters all over his wall
Walks in giant footsteps but feels so small
And to them it might seem he's kinda lost his way
But he's got a dream and he'll chase it everyday

"Mirage" by onevoice
Desire, Desire
Carry me to sleep
I am but a child
In your arms tonight
Temptation, temptation
You've my soul to keep
I am but a child
In your arms tonight
Inviting, inviting
Warmth that chills your bones
I am but a slave
To my appetite
Alluring, alluring
Shine that surely blinds
I am but a slave
To my appetite
How to hold what is as sand
And slips straight through my hands?
Pleasure so fleeting
How to find the infinite
When all that surrounds is
Slowly decaying?
How to know the difference
When that voice in your head
Pretends to be your heart?
The biggest lie that we believed
Was 'we can find our happiness
Inside a mirage'
Seductive, seductive
Pictures, no escape
I am but a dog
on arousal's leash
Brainwashing, brainwashing
Stuff they say we need
I am but a dog
On arousal's leash
How to focus on what's right
When God gave us free will?
Life is in our hands
How to mend a broken heart
Without giving into
Your evil inclination?
The biggest lie that we believed
Was 'we can find our happiness
Inside a mirage'
How to hold what is as sand
And slips straight through my hands?
How to find the infinite
When all that surrounds is
Slowly decaying?
How to know the difference
When that voice in your head
Pretends to be your heart?
The biggest lie that we believed
Was 'we can find our happiness
Inside a mirage'

"The Greenhouse" by onevoice
I saw her in my sleep
And she took me to her favorite place
We walked amongst debris
And empty, wingless jewels
Until at last we found
Its glass alight beneath the sun
The door slightly ajar
The Greenhouse
And she said…
Never you mind what they're saying outside
Come to my hideaway hidden in vines
Watching it snow from our glass bungalow
Let the stems of our hands intertwine
Much more real I feel when I'm in this dream
Closer to the truth then when I'm awake
And her (my) favorite place is wherever teaches me (you)
Thats's why I ask The Dreamcatcher to guide me
Through life's long dream…
Just as the sea becomes the rain
So are our lives and thoughts and lessons all the same
Through each experience
He'll try to lead us
Bringing us closer to inside
Don't think your thoughts go unobserved
They're the tools that mold your future and your word
Whether in this world
Or just in your head
Listen and learn from everything
She pointed as she said
Think not of what's outside
Those empty, wingless jewels
Won't teach you how to fly
This place is as your heart
Inside there's all you need
Its love always in bloom
The Greenhouse
Much more real I feel when I'm in this dream
Closer to the truth then when I'm awake
And her (my) favorite place is wherever teaches me (you)
Thats's why I ask The Dreamcatcher to guide me
Through life's long dream…
