Fly Away 07:00
Don’t be afraid of the darkest eyes You are free now of the pain Open your heart open your mind Do you see now what I say I’m the maker of your dreams I’m the taker of your screams I'll show you every possibility Everybody plays the game Here's to old friends, to me and you Make your peace come on through I see the young I see a world come undone I've seen the rocks turn to sand I've seen the death of a thousand suns Take a breath and take my hand Ride the lightning it's so frightening What you gonna do Take the reins and jump the flames You got nothing left to lose Follow the stars no matter where you are and fly away Kick the door down into hell Find the devil break the spell Tear the wall down brick by brick Shine your light into the pit Follow the stars no matter where they are and fly away

Devil on my shoulder Angel by my side Both of them yell at me every night Gods are playing their dirty tricks Can't see the trees for the sticks Nobody's listening Through the noise of their sins I can't find me no ace The cards are dealt are the cards of fate Riding my ghost back into town I see the devil and he looks me up and down It's his town I'll take the light from the end of the day Shadows of the grave fade to grey They're all the same I can't find me no ace The cards are dealt The cards of fate

It was a dark and lonely night I saw her standing there She was dressed in white with silver thread And glowed with a love forgotten She walked right past not seeing me at all Oh the love that shone in her eyes She turned and stared straight through me That's when I saw the sadness in her eyes A love, a love forgotten A dream so long ago Looking for her lover, another not me I wish it was me she would see

Were you ever a child that would laugh in the spring Did you ever play in the fall What happened to your family Did they run away Or did the elf sneak out and take them all I don’t know Where did my life go Drifting by in the crowds I don’t know where did my life go You know I never believed until the things that were said I had seen And then the playground was no fun at all Tie me down, lock me up and throw away the key And we’ll watch how this makes me a better man I don’t know Where does my life go Drifting by with the clouds I don’t know where does my life go from here

Cassino 04:39
It took our young ones from our breast but never from our hearts The hill that took them knew not their names Just stood there as they died The land they left was rough and tired as was the few returned While the soul does yearn for peace The heads they yell for war They did it for their mothers and their girlfriends and their wives They did it for their mates Who lay there screaming for their lives The faded photograph’s the only thing the child will see Of their fathers that they never knew and never really lived Rest and drink god’s dew my friends Lie back, your mothers weep Was only yesterday the child became the man Now he’s just a memory The pok-marked face of Mother Earth She swallows the hate and pain But spus back bloodied corpses And we swore not ever again None of us will ever know the smell of war and fear If you look behind those smokey eyes There’s pain that can’t be shared Now the fallen never aged are standing with their friends Proud of what they had achieved and hoped we’ll never see The bugle plays for those who care lest we dare forget Was only yesterday the child became a man too soon Only yesterday the child has lost his life too soon

about

Lazy Fifty Gisborne, New Zealand

Lazy Fifty’s music harks back to the classic rock of the 70s, enhanced with a healthy dose of funk, rocking rhythms & impressive guitar. Our name comes from the saying of a friend. When he asked you for a ‘lazy 20’ (dollars), you knew you’d never see the money again. That was a long time ago and our friend is no longer with us. In memory of him, and allowing for inflation, we are now ‘Lazy Fifty’. ... more
