Into The Fire word and music: Lenny Lee ©2012 Another escape without a plan,no reason to go but still I ran Is it a ghost that's stalking me - what do you see - What do you see? 'cuz this soldier feels too old to fight but hand me my sword and battle gear 'cuz I'm still too young to die I was shown the design late in the game, I'm slow to adapt to this terrain I'm learning to crawl around these mines soon you will hear my battle cry I take no prisoners today will you salute me while your blood drips from my blade See me. Hear me. What makes you fear me? quiet yearnings - my bridges burning today take me away before I jump into the fire Such a hollow victory - where little remains but sorrow and pain and now it seems I've lost my direction in this jungle of mirrors - nothing gets clearer now but as I make this final stand, I point to the line drawn in the sand all you can hear now as you die - the echoes of my battle cry I take no prisoners today - you will salute me while your blood drips from my blade See me. Hear me. What makes you fear me? quiet yearnings - my bridges burning today take me away before I jump into the fire what can I say - I've been consumed by my desires reach out - before I jump into the fire.......

Tilting At Windmills ©2012 Lenny Lee I haven't seen the sun in a while I've found a place where my well being goes to die. with condescension and contempt decry a lack of dignity and reverence and now you're thrusting, and sneering, and preaching like the flame of the black friar burning there's no understanding - no understanding I hear the voices call in the night where things I love have forced me to the darker side and the things I chose to defend leave me hard, unanswered questions once again So now I'm screaming and swearing - I'm bleeding and blind to the pain I'm causing it seems like I'm failing to embrace my ideals and As we go 'round and 'round We're only tilting at windmills dragging me down - 'cuz I let you So we go 'round and 'round like fools we're tilting at windmills fury and sound - so where are we now?

Foolish Child word and music: Lenny Lee ©2010 Standing small at the razors edge of discovery and denial I point this vulgar blowtorch to the west and warm my hands on the fire - oh yeah..... My powers of persuasion failing me is there something that I overlooked Is losing sight of my humanity part of this burden that I undertook? Don't you know I can guide you through the darkness, Foolish Child and I will strike down upon thee with furious anger 'til you see the light. You're trapped in circles and no longer hear the music of the spheres So dare to revel in the mystery perhaps your muse is hiding here And you know I will guide you through the darkness, Foolish Child and I will strike down upon thee with furious anger 'til you see the light. Soldiers of the emptiness would have me deny my experience with a saddening blindness of things I have seen, if only from a distance you choose your illusions, I'll choose mine 'cuz I've had more than a glimpse of the light as it draws me away from your heat you won't dissuade me, no, 'cuz I will smile upon you, Foolish Child and you may strike down upon me with furious anger we both know why you foolish child.......

Forgiven word and music: Lenny Lee ©2012 You've been carrying a secret and that's more than you can hide 'cuz that's not who you are Now you're learning the hard way, you can never live a lie this time you've gone too far who do you think that you're fooling with that new morality and how could you turn your back on me You figure everything changes as the memory starts to fade but the shadows remain You're finding comfort in a stranger who never finds out who you are or questions what you say, directly Don't you know that those you're deserting gave you everything you need but sometimes we're just too close to see - please listen carefully Yo babe, we're home today, still searching for a smile Faint hopes and heavy hearts and still no reasons why yo babe, we're blown away, you never said goodbye well ok, we make mistakes, and you should know .....you're forgiven I saw a lady at the cafe who reminded me of you so quick with a smile And then I had another daydream, the funny things we used to do and I got lost for a while what do you think that you're gaining from that new philosophy and would you please enlighten me - I'll listen carefully Yo babe, we're home today, still searching for a smile Faint hopes and heavy hearts and still no reasons why yo babe, we're blown away, you never said goodbye well ok, we make mistakes, and you should know .....you're forgiven Swept up in this whirlwind romance, just like we once had where poetry flows like red wine late night dancing, love for the asking don't let this chance pass you by while your heart is afire yet still I see pain in those eyes Yo babe, we're home today, still searching for a smile Faint hopes and heavy hearts and still no reasons why yo babe, we're blown away, you never said goodbye well ok, we make mistakes, and you should know .....you're forgiven

Summer Rain words: Ted Barrett music: Lenny Lee ©2012 Youth of the day, summer rain freshing shape of future love, like cloud illusions a princess hero - perfect poets ignoring rumours of lightning desiccating winds to come But not this teen day dance, embrace the deluge of now in this summer rain Now lose yourself, flowing old rhythms falling water cleans these lovers true passions too soon forgotten - in the sunlight burning, tender lives blooming shoot tall among the clouds illusions But not this teen day dance, embrace the deluge of now in this summer rain and how does it feel to touch the sky and realize the air is alive with dreams of you in this summer rain dreams of you in this summer rain

Being (Taste The Sunshine) Music: Bryn Corbett Lyrics, vocal melodies and arrangement: Lenny Lee ©2011 Roll up and be on your way, your life is changing today We'll all be singing, our kites are flying high Day-Glo buses floating by, Mystic Being smiles in the sky we've got flowers and sun showers - wow So stick out your tongue We are being - Love is seeing I am being - will you be with me? Let's all be one with the infinite mind Just close your eyes if you're hoping to find me (We are being) A beautiful feeling - (love is seeing) Taste The Sunshine Tim's Disciples tuning in, Turn on - let the healing begin Come climb aboard this ship, we're sailing now Owsley serves our daily bread, synergize and feed your head As Allen speaks the word, we all drop out we try to reach out (We are being - Love is seeing) far beyond our minds (I am being - Will you be with me?) Let's all be one with the Infinite Mind Just close your eyes if you're hoping to find me (We are being) A beautiful feeling - (love is seeing) Taste The Sunshine "Well my soul is independent of body and death it isn't me, but my whisper of conciousness" (Ginsberg) and you are my witness - so stay close now and taste it Taste The Sunshine "What is above is below, what is without is within what is to come is in the past and I want to know where you've been" (Leary) We are Being, Love is seeing Taste The Sunshine

My Only Regrets words and music: Lenny Lee ©2012 Daylight slips away and skies are streaked with grey with sadness comes the night like a fading wish for blinding sight still I struggle to express this cryptic plea for tenderness as the ego foils the soul as if nothing is sacred - there's nothing to hold You cut the one true vine, declaring this a waste of our time we closed the book too soon to a weeping sky, we howl at the moon 'cuz we never had a clue - you point to me - so I point at you as the circle spins around as simple solutions spring up from the ground The buck stops here - so dare we lead or must we follow it may be more than I can take - or am I thinking much too shallow - or is it a lie 'cuz in the end my only regrets are what I feared to try This choice may set us free - with guiding eyes any fool can see still we know we're never through - you look to me and I smile at you and the cycle never fades - we find resolution or end this charade. The buck stops here - so dare we lead or must we follow it may be more than I can take - or am I thinking much too shallow - or is it a lie 'cuz in the end my only regrets are what I feared to try

Killing Time words and music: Lenny Lee ©2012 Clouds floating low again, so I close that door again your name flashed upon the screen, as I witness this darkening scene Because I won't stop killing time It's my unspeakable crime alluring souls surrounding me, yet I remain preoccupied spiritual myopia is why I'm never satisfied cherished moments slip away, my insult to eternity just rock star eloquence today in this town without pity Sidestep the danger, by engaging this stranger aware that there's so much more than this purposeless, silent war Because I won't stop killing time It's my unspeakable crime

I Burned My Lips Music: Brett Grace Lyrics, vocal melodies and arrangement: Lenny Lee ©2011 Living in this empty shell and gazing at the skies at night pumping magic from this well, where words fall short but that's alright I'm loving, I'm flying, and truth is I'm lying And as I slowly waste away as demons dance in lingerie I kissed you - but I burned my lips I swallowed you whole - but I burned my lips I wanna get up - I wanna go I wanna get up and see the show I wanna get up but everyone's - chasing the dragon to the sun I kissed you - but I burned my lips I swallowed you whole - but you blackened my soul

Bread and Roses Words and music: Lenny Lee 2012 I stand on the hill, watch the rise of the tide recalling the battles that define this time the echoes will fade, and yet something shines today - like gold I'm laughing with brothers who are just passing through and sharing these stories feels like deja vu some names have been changed but the feelings still remain - like gold And I feel - those stinging winds of change they can make me stronger or blow me away I feel - that we will be just fine We have our bread and roses tonight I stand on the hill, looking back over time saluting those old souls who have made this climb for forging a future that I'm proud to now call mine and it's like gold And I feel - those stinging winds of change they can make me stronger or blow me away I feel - that we will be just fine if we stand for bread and roses tonight Gather close and we'll ride out this stormy weather it's how we keep our bread and roses here forever........

No Place Like Home words and music: Lenny Lee ©2012 What did you say? Were you thinking all you thought you knew had been swept away and ghosts were hiding in the closet Perhaps you'd see the things I see if you were listening to me so let's be careful now - or things may never be the same You were shown the scars, but haven't had the time to let things fade away or the eyes to see things clearly So fragile we - can hurt so deep, but can we find compassion please don't set this house ablaze - the fire would reach the sky leaving glowing embers of our precious lives Well I.......I've seen so many lost at sea so I guard this with my life Well I.........I believe there's no place like home no there's no place like home Surely I can't be defined by mistakes I've made that hurt the ones that I love dearly So casually abandon me without an understanding Just a word before you go we can only wonder why we would ever have to face this last goodbye Well I.......I've seen so many lost at sea so I guard this with my life Well I.........I won't accept these choices here, don't even ask me why Well I.........I believe there's no place like home
