Lyrics: Pete Held

Black bird sittin? on a post
Tellin? me that I?m gonna be his ghost
Taking his time, just a reading my grave
Showin? all the people that I been too brave

I could throw it all away
I can?t tell what any of it means
Their success is my fatigue
They let me rot to fill their dreams

INTERLUDE

One more job, one more page
You?re a private fucking joke to the keepers of your cage
The machine moves on to someone new
It?s their turn to choke on what you knew

SOLO

Black bird he?s been lookin? at me
Hinting to me I should be in my grave
Kicking around on a breath and a hope
Lookin? back on life through a haze of smoke
Let me off the machine, can I rest for a while?
For you, I suppose I?ll leave my bones in the pile

Lyrics: Pink Floyd

Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is there anyone home?

Come on, now.
I hear you're feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.

Relax.
I need some information first.
Just the basic facts,
Can you show me where it hurts?

There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're sayin'.
When I was a child I had a fever.
My hands felt just like two balloons.
Now I got that feeling once again.
I can't explain, you would not understand.
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ok.
Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no more ...Aaaaaahhhhh!
But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working. Good.
That'll keep you going for the show.
Come on it's time to go.

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

Lyrics: Quentin McKay

I don't know what you see in me
Let's take a count, not 1, but 2, maybe 3
When I'm misbehaving, they like to feed to me
Rainbow pills - 1 red, 2 blue, 3 green

I'm mighty fine, me myself and I
I'm mighty fine, say the voices deep inside

I don't know what I see looking at you
Hallucination, delusion and illusion too
When I misbehave, they wrap me up cozy
In a tight white coat, with buckles so shiny

We're doing fine, we skip and twirl with glee
We're so divine, John and Syd and Crazy Me
La-la la-la la-la, La la-la la-la la-la

SOLO
Interlude (boom-boom-chick? ahh x4)

You think I'm a schizo, but it just can't be
'Cause there's no such thing, so let us see
If I'm not one of those split personalities
I must be just a nutbar, yah I'm just crazy!

I'm crazy me, me myself and I
We're always right, says me and Phil and I
La-la la-la la-la, La la-la la-la la-la

Crossroads

Music: Pete Held
Lyrics: Pete Held

I see the people walking in the corridor
Too scared to stop & say "hello"
I look an old man into the eyes
But what is there? I don't know

'Cause rivers flow until the end
Crossroads never meet again
And I know we'll be alright
Because we're friends

She asks me if I can take a look
To what is deep inside of her
I find that when I finally look inside
There really is nothing there

'Cause rivers flow until the end
Crossroads never meet again
And I know we'll be alright
Because we're friends

Dad
Copyright © 2005 PastMidnight
Music: Pete Held, Quentin McKay
Lyrics: Pete Held / Quentin McKay / Ian Weiting

Some of us love unconditionally
Never judging; always caring
They lead us by example
Loving unconditionally

It's a big world
One we all share
So many people
But some are rare
Some call him uncle
Some call him friend
I know a girl who calls him husband
I call him Dad?

They stand behind us
And teach us what is right
They stand in front of us
And help us to take flight

When we feel lost
When we feel weak
He's always strong
He helps us to our feet

CHORUS

In the face of adversity
He would show me his smile
Then he tells me he loves me
And then we talk for a while

Time we spend together
Under the sun
Laughing and joking
Just having fun

CHORUS
Yah he's my... Dad
Yah I love my... Dad
I call him... Dad

Dark Majesty

Lyrics: Pete Held

Dark clouds gather up above
Run and hide with the ones you love
The storm is coming; I see it in your eye
There are warnings written in the sky
The Dark Majesty comes to us today
She can bleed away all the light of day
Up from the depths of her evil hive
Maiming anything she sees alive

A flash of light and then you return
To the life-stone where you were born
A great army gathers in the land
To face her now and make their last stand

And she comes today
With her brood today
And she hunts today
No mercy today
The Dark Majesty!!!

Last chance for all of mankind
With the swords drawn high and magic in their mind
The leader stands on high giving his commands
Hoping there's the might for what the task demands

Oh ohh ... Oh ohh ...

A flash of light and then you return
To the life-stone where you were born
A great army gathers in the land
To face her now and make their last stand
Last chance for all of mankind
With the swords drawn high and magic in their mind
Leader stands on high giving his commands
Hoping there's the might for what the task demands

And she comes today
With her brood today
And she hunts today
No mercy today
The Dark Majesty!!!

Discontent

Music: Pete Held, Quentin McKay, Wyonna Aplin, Megan Kumpula
Lyrics: Quentin McKay

Can't seem to get into a groove
I don't like where I'm at
Feeling so damn discarded
I'm discontent
I'm discontent
Discontent

Can't feel ones that I love
No job at my capacity
I'm a zombie; trudge through the paces
I'm discontent
I'm discontent
Discontent
Me: Discontent

I cannot see the light
But I can taste
So damn close

Must be more to my life
My dreams don't see the light of day
Untouched; I'm emotionless
I'm discontent
I'm discontent
Discontent

I can't reach the prize
Can't they see my ability
Who do I need to show
I'm discontent
I'm discontent
Discontent
Me: Discontent

Reaching for the stars
Grasping for the light
Longing for the life
Clutching at the prize

Can't seem to get into a groove
I don't like where I'm at
Feeling so damn discarded
I'm discontent
I'm discontent
Discontent
Me: Discontent

Edge of a Sword
Copyright © 2008 PastMidnight
Music: Pete Held
Lyrics: Pete Held

Living life
By the river in our town
Down at the old arcade
One more pinball game

Kicking back
Music so surreal
A life that's easy
Without care

20 years
It's seems like yesterday
I thought I'd call but no one's home

You lived your life on the edge of a sword
You helped me find my way

There's words to say but they will have to wait
'Til we meet again
In our heaven

I'll live my life holding high the sword
It's an ode to you
We remember you

Lyrics: Quentin McKay / Pete Held

Hangin' on the corner on a Saturday night
Watchin' all the fine ass walk on by
Now it's baggy pants, hangin' to their knees
Thinkin' that they're lookin' so fine
Used to be girls that could blow apart my world
Make me feel all right all night
They cut off their hair; don't care what they wear
What the hell's wrong with them?

I want the girls with the big-ass hair
Red gloss lips 'n' tight-ass jeans
I want a girl that takes me there fast
Guess work's gone - I see she's my dream
I want, I crave an 80's girl!

Cruisin' in my car on a Saturday night
Cranked it loud when the solo played
Listen to the bands on the radio now
You get no guitar solo today
Tired of all the talkin' to the drum machine
To hear some vocals sing would be my dream
Now it's all rap - it's a pile of crap
I'd rather hear the singer scream

I want the songs with the whalin' guitar
Where the solo sweeps me off my feet
I wanna singer who can sing my song
Doin' more than just talkin' to the beat
I want, I crave an 80's song!

I want long hair done up right
I want the jeans painted on tight
I wanna hear the solo sweet and long
I wanna hear a singer who can sing my song
Want the good times of the 80's again
Bonfire bush-parties 'til the end!

SOLO

Used to be girls that could blow apart my world
Make me feel all right all night
They cut off their hair; don't care what they wear
What the hell's wrong with them?
Listen to the bands on the radio now
You get no guitar solo today
Tired of all the talkin' to the drum machine
I'd rather hear the singer scream

I want the long hair crazy and teased
Gotta have her ass fittin' tight in her jeans
I want the songs with the whalin' guitar
I wanna hear the singer song my song
I want, I crave an 80's life!

Fine Fine Day

Lyrics: Pete Held / Quentin McKay

It's a fine fine day - and I'm feelin' alright
It's a fine fine day - when you stay the night
It's a fine fine day - 'cause I spent it with you
It's a fine fine day - for everything you do
It's a fine fine day - for makin' love to you
It's a fine fine day - every time we do

I have seen the love in your eyes
Feels so right way deep inside
I have felt the warmth in your heart
I barely believe it can feel this way

It's a fine fine day - and I'm feelin' alright
It's a fine fine day - in the cool sunlight
It's a fine fine day - not too hot or cold
It's a fine fine day - bright sky of gold
It's a fine fine day - not a cloud up there
It's a fine fine day - love is in the air

I have seen the love in your eyes
Feels so right way deep inside
I have felt the warmth in your heart
I barely believe it can feel this way

It's a fine fine day - and I'm feelin' alright
It's a fine fine day - when you stay the night
It's a fine fine day - 'cause I spent it with you
It's a fine fine day - for everything you do
It's a fine fine day - for makin' love to you
It's a fine fine day - every time we do

Ohhh... fine fine day... fine fine day
Ohhh... fine fine day... fine fine day
Fine fine day... fine fine day
Fine fine day... fine fine day

I have seen the love in your eyes
Feels so right way deep inside
I have felt the warmth in your heart
I barely believe it can feel this way

It's a fine fine day - when I'm playin' my axe
It's a fine fine day - when the riffs play back
It's a fine fine day - to play a tune or more
It's a fine fine day - for the musical score
It's a fine fine day - to play a song for you
It's a fine fine day - don't you know it's through

I Beg of You
Copyright © 2005 PastMidnight
Music: Pete Held, Quentin McKay
Lyrics: Pete Held / Quentin McKay

I am standing not so far from you
And I see everything that you do
From the secret place I live each day
I?ve got you etched in my brain

I can feel you, you're in my soul
It really tears me each time you go
I gotta have you, no matter the cost
Without you it?s my obsession lost
I Beg of You

Infatuation; Is that what you call it?
I take a snapshot - you cannot stop it
An observation over your shoulder
And when I kiss it do you feel colder

I cannot have you but you?re my desire
A distillation of my inner fire
I can?t compel you, though I may try
When you disdain me, I only cry
I Beg of You

Kiss me
Kill me
Touch me
Thrill me
Push me
Slap me
Give me
Everything
I beg of you

SOLO

I cannot have you but you?re my desire
A distillation of my inner fire
I can?t compel you, though I may try

I can't help wonder why
Thoughts of you make me high
I love the way you lie
I'd hate to say goodbye

What would I do
Imagine me without you
Don't leave me alone
Broken on my own

You're beautiful inside
Heart open wide
I'm in love with you
I'm not me without you

Aaaah aaah aah

Lyrics: Quentin McKay / Pete Held / Ian Weiting

Father take me down and teach me your discipline
Teach me how to be the man I ought to be
Mother bring me down and teach me your morals
Show me how to be the man I ought to be
Everyone is tellin? me that I?m a badass
Why is everyone afraid of me
I think that you have missed my intentions
Can?t you see the rage inside of me

Don't you EVER Judge me
Don?t Ever JUDGE ME

You can beat me down and call me stupid
Back from the line ? no fuckin? up my pride
Might be tightly wound; others call me crazy
Take a look inside ? ain?t nothin? but divine
Bust up my clock; the ticker?s in my head
Ain?t got a lot of shit, but what I got is time
Take away my ride, I still got my feet
Ain?t got a lot that?s fine, but what I got is mine

CHORUS

Listen to your sound you bitched up crackhead
Your words are never right; a critic out of spite
Spin it all around ? you?re the one that?s fucked up
It?s shinin? in your eyes, but you can?t see the light
J U D G E ? it spells low self worth
Try as you might, you can?t get it right
Takin? you down ? gonna teach you discipline
Show your respect ? tonight is the night

CHORUS

Don't you Judge me! Never Judge me!
Don't you Judge me! Never Judge me!

Slag me to the ground and give me the dust off
Tell me to obey your crooked way
Back another round ? I won?t go down easy
Now you?re gonna lay in the bed that you made
Now you?re gonna see why they call me a badass
Now it?s time to be so afraid of me
Gonna make it clear ? you won?t miss my intention
Now you?re gonna feel the rage inside of me

CHORUS

Knights in white satin, never reaching the end
Letters I?ve written, never meaning to send
Beauty I?d always missed, with these eyes before
Just what the truth is, I can?t say anymore

?Cause I love you, yes I love you
Ohh how I love you

Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I?m going through, they can?t understand
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be, you?ll be in the end

?Cause I love you, yes I love you
Ohh how I love you

Love will take us there

You?re my soul beyond
If I was without you I'd be lost
My world would crumble and sway

Love
Love will take you there

Love will take us there

I never promised you that I'd be part of your life
I only wanted to get my head on right
You were just a one night stand, but you fell in love with me
Now I've got to move on to another fantasy
I never wanted to hurt you babe, but?
I've got to be free?

I've got to be movin' on; I don't need your harmony
I'm just the kind who lives my life; I live my life for me
I don't need your petty attitude; it'll only bring me down
If you don't lighten up baby, I'll have to be movin' on

What ever happened to the good old days of young?
No strings could be tied on to what was said and done
Time passes and we march on, sacrificing self-respect
Now I've got to move on to another fantasy
I never wanted to hurt you babe, but?
I've got to be free?

I've got to be movin' on; I don't need your harmony

Music: Pete Held, Quentin McKay
Lyrics: Quentin McKay / Pete Held

Looking to stars; feeling so left behind
A grain of sand in this barren desert of time
A place so vast; yet within, life clings on
A single stone, and a castle has begun

And the light came down
And blinded all the sound
And the light came down
And the desert drowned

Suffocate slowly; heavy weight upon the soul
Alone in this mind; gazing deep into this hole
Time heals everything - these words are a lie
A heart is crushed - a time to cry

And the light came down
So loud I could not see
And the light came down
And dried away the tears

No Jade, No Hate, No Freaks, No Losers
One Sky, One Earth, One Mind, One Soul
Love Gives, Love Blinds, Love Heals, Love Knows
No One but Me

In the span of a day everything can change
Once grains of sand, now kingdoms of glass
The weight is lifted, the void long gone
You know the answer - you took the time to love

And the light came down
Couldn't feel a thing
And the light fades down
Revealing everything

In my head there?s much to see
Color galore; you wish you were me
Yah, but I?m outta my head

In my head it?s a stormy day
Chasing rain in a clear blue sky
Yah, but I?m outta my head

In my head it?s a fucked up place
Piles of trash; it?s a waste of space
Open the hatch - it?s time to bail
Crack the walls; I?m leaving today
Yah, I?m outta my head

Floating through the fruity-loop sky; find I?m outta my head
Flying through the clouds in my eyes; find I?m outta my head

SOLO

Too much crap stuffed in my skull
I?m overloading; I?m buggin? out
I?ll surf on visions; drift on dreams
Outside my head; away from reality
Yah, I?m outta my head

Floating through the fruity-loop sky; find I?m outta my head
Flying through the clouds in my eyes; find I?m outta my?
Floating through the fruity-loop sky; find I?m outta my head
Flying through the clouds in my eyes; find I?m outta my head

I think I?m outta my head!!!

Lyrics: Quentin McKay / Pete Held

Just before the dark; the end of the day
Creatures are stirring; they're coming awake
After the dark, before the dawn
They gather together, to spread the song
No one around; peace of mind
Release the soul - it no longer has to hide
Together in solitude, sharing minds
Conquering all, in the night

PastMidnight?
A time to wake
A time to live
A time to feel
A time to love
It's there for you
It can hear your soul
It'll all be there
PastMidnight

Intoxicated, by the music in the mind
Starting the journey, few can find
Deeper and deeper; drift away
Moving further from the static of the day
Nectar of the Gods - enhance the trance
The sight within, begins to dance
Brought to climax, by the rhythm of the night
Time stands still?

PastMidnight?
A time to hush
A time to listen
A time to think
A time to learn
It's there for you
It can hear your soul
It'll all be there

Why do people feel they've got to
Cheat one another to win the game?
Why do people feel they've got to
Steal from one another to make life rich?

These people with the rose-colored glasses
All they see is red

Let's tell the story without lies
Let's make the peace saving lives
Let's get ahead by giving back
Let's win the game with pride

Why do people feel they've got to
Beat one another to get the point across?
Why do people feel they've got to
Lie to one another to tell their tale?

These people with the rose-colored glasses
All they see is red

Let's tell the story without lies
Let's make the peace saving lives
Let's get ahead by giving back
Let's make a point to heal

INTERLUDE

Doesn't matter where they were born
Doesn't matter how they were raised
You can blame it on a broken home; blame the parents
Say it's pressure of society, blame the establishment

Don't hide behind excuses, justice must prevail
Or we won't survive

These people can't be helped
Can't cleanse such polluted minds
People choose their destiny
We will choose to be free
Only one way to heal
Come together and stand as one
Mend our hearts with what is right
Rise united with our shield of pride

One giant stroke by the sword of love
To sever racial and religious lines
Dissension bleeds on the edge of the blade
And we see reflections?
Of a better world

Doin' my thing at work one day
And the boss-lady comes up to me
She points her finger at her door
And she says to me "Won't you come this way."
I rose right up and followed her
I knew that she would like to play
And as I fell in time with her swing
Couldn't help but watch her sweet ass sway
(Oh oh oh? Oh oh oh?)

Girl I gotta put you on
Gotta put you on and take it down
Girl I gotta put you on
Gotta peel it off and go on down

Back at work to do my thing
Gotta do my thing and fill another day
All I really wanna do, is do my time and get my pay
The boss lady comes and glares at me
'Cause I said that I wouldn't, I wouldn't play
This time as she points to the door
I know my ass is fired today
(Oh oh oh? Oh oh oh?)

So I go on home and I tell my girl
What the boss lady tried on me
She holds me close and she holds me tight
She tells me what I really need
Well don't they know that my sweet girl
Is the best one in the world
I feel so fine, I feel so proud
Wanna tell everybody loud!
(Loud loud loud? Loud loud loud?)

CHORUS

Rasputin
Copyright © Boney M
Music: Boney M
Lyrics: Boney M

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the Bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

Ra ra Rasputin, Lover of the russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin, Russia?s greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

He ruled the Russian land and never mind the czar
But the kasachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she?d heard the things he?d done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son

CHORUS

But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger for power
Became known to more and more people,
The demands to do something about this outrageous Man
Became louder and louder

This man?s just got to go! declared his enemies
But the ladies begged don?t you try to do it, please
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they?re not to blame
Come to visit us they kept demanding
And he really came

Ra ra Rasputin, Lover of the russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
Ra ra Rasputin, Russia?s greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said I feel fine

Ra ra Rasputin, Lover of the russian queen
They didn?t quit, they wanted his head
Ra ra Rasputin, Russia?s greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead

Oh, those Russians

Lyrics: Pete Held / Quentin McKay

Don't try to run away
Never try to hide
You were always the strong one
I would try to unwind
I'll be your superhero
Never see me cry
I'm your man of steel
No emotional side

Another fit of emotion
That I lock inside
Turn the key; throw it away
These feelings are mine
Take time - study me
See the cancer I hide
Is this how you remember me?
Where's the child I used to be?

I am just a man inside
I will love you anyway
But you, you always run away

Tie me up and beat me down
Punish me with disdain
Take it slow and let's ease in
Careful how we play
Step around this mental disorder
Tuck it safely away
You refuse to see my truth
My naked mind can't stay

I am just a man inside
I will love you anyway
You, you always run away

Strong and Sweet

Lyrics: Quentin McKay

Oh... oh... oh... Oh... oh... oh... Oh... oh... oh... Oh... oh... oh...

Beautiful brown eyes starin' off into space
I wonder if your sights are seein' my face?
What's in your dream-time when you sleep late at night?
Will you still be mine when dark turns to light?

Let's get hot... and sexual baby
Fluids streamin'... find yourself screamin'
Passion devours all of trust
Creating a love laced in lust
Twisting all night, reaching new heights
Desire explodes from a fire
Let's make it strong and oh so sweet

Tearin' through the cobwebs in my mind
Visions of your beauty never hide
Love is the snowflake that falls
Souls are captured in my heart made of walls

Let's get hot... and sexual baby
Fluids streamin'... find yourself screamin'
Passion devours all of trust
Creating a love laced in lust
Twisting all night, reaching new heights
Desire explodes from a fire
Let's make it strong and oh so sweet

INTERLUDE

Incubation of masterbation shatters the shell
Infant eyes shine for the second time
It happened to me - you brought me from hell
Wedding of flesh, bells echo a chime

Let's get hot... and sexual baby
Fluids streamin'... find yourself screamin'
Passion devours all of trust
Creating a love laced in lust
Twisting all night, reaching new heights
Desire explodes from a fire
Let's make it strong and oh so sweet

Lyrics: Pete Held / Quentin McKay

Take me to your river baby
Take me to your sea
Take me anywhere you wanna
Ain't no place I'd rather be

'Cause I love yah
And I need yah
Baby you're so fine
Be mine

Hey pretty girl in the Kasmir sweater
Won't you take it off - you'd look a lot better to me

Take me way down low baby
Take me down below the sheets
Got somethin' there to show yah
It's a better way to feel

And I'll love yah
Undercover
Baby all night long
Do you no wrong

Hey pretty girl in the Kasmir sweater
Won't you take it off - you'd look a lot better to me

I can feel your love? comin' down on me
I can feel your love? comin' down on me

SOLO

Ohhhh? yah

SOLO

Show me your treasure baby
Through the mountains; past the trees
Show me your sweet spot baby
Ain't no place I'd rather see

'Cause I love yah
And I'll please yah
Baby all the time
'Cause you're mine

Hey pretty girl in the Kasmir sweater
I see you took it off - you look a lot better to me

Throw My Heart

Lyrics: Quentin McKay / T&K McKay

So you say you?re not that kind of girl
I might be that kind of guy
Won?t ask for excuses; won?t tell you why
We both have our reasons; there?s nothing to deny

All or nothing, or nothing at all
Stay if you want; let?s make it your call
Dream to hope, but don?t throw my heart around

Maybe we can make it for tonight
Neither you or I is wrong or right
Flip a coin; will it be your place or mine?
Is it a matter of now, or ?til the end of time?

CHORUS

SOLO

If we play it safe, are we risking our hearts?
Is tonight the end or just the start?
If we say goodbye, is it something to forget?
If we stay the course, will it end in regret?

All or nothing, or nothing at all
Stay if you want; let?s make it your call
All or nothing, or nothing at all
Stay if you want; let?s make it your call
Dream to hope, but don?t throw my heart around

Where To Go

Lyrics: Quentin McKay / T&K McKay

I feel your soul calling to me
But I am lost; I cannot see
Find myself looking in circles, all alone
Been on this search before ? so far gone

Where am I to go?
Where am I, where am I to go?

I am lost; a traveler without direction
I?m incomplete; a mirror without reflection
I?m in need of your wisdom; come show me the way
To my long night, be the dawn; bring in the day

Wreck
Copyright © 2005 PastMidnight
Music: Pete Held, Quentin McKay
Lyrics: Quentin McKay

Stuck in this head, my legs won't stand
Shit I been fed, got this swollen gland
In a far off place, searching for sex
Dressed in lace, some soft round pecs
Found my face, at the spot marked 'X'
Gone to waste, busted wreck
Busted Wreck!

Learned to fly, no fear of dread
Spirit high, but falling like lead
Been defied, it's too complex
Stone-washed face, covered in flecks
Off my case, you could be next
Lost the race, busted wreck
Busted Wreck!

Busted Wreck! Busted Wreck!

Busted Wreck! Busted Wreck!

Don't follow when led, 'cause it tastes so bland
Instead I fled, and I won't be damned
We don't fly, but we'll get by
We might lie, just don't ask why
Off my case, you could be next
Finished that race, passed those wrecks
By pieces of me & parts of you
Pile 'em high, trash those wrecks

Busted Wreck!
