Like An Eagle

GLORY BOUND
Written 25.01.2019
A

If tomorrow will make me greedy
If the sunshine woun’t let me freeze
If the rain don’t get to soak me no more
Pull me down to my roots again

Now take my hand Let’s get going
I feel alive Ready for the world
Now let me dance I love to swing around
This is my day My kind of way Glory bound

So get on up All around
Let’s fly high over ground
There’s so much more to see so pull your vail on up for me
This is where you fly

One step gone One step closer to
Realizing every dream
Knowing now the treasures of the past
Stronger by every fall

All my tears are forgotten through the years
Pain and struggles are gone
The sun always shine if you got mercy on your mind
Man I feel alive I feel alive

So get on up All around
Let’s fly high over ground
There’s so much more to see so pull your vail on up for me
This is where you fly

TOO MANY
Written 23.01.2019
D

How many hours until you come home
Food’s in the oven and I’m all alone
How many hours ‘til my tears can go
My darling I miss you so

How many paychecks until you feel good
Another week Another neighbourhood
How many pleasures do you need from me
To feel free

Too many broken hearts to fill a gap
The whole world resting on your lap
Too many voices shouting out to win
Proud minds pointing at eachothers sin

How many miles must I walk to see
How beauty lives inside of me
How many loving thoughts should fill my mind
Many more

Too many broken hearts to fill a gap
The whole world resting on your lap
Too many voices shouting out to win
Proud minds pointing at eachothers sin

SHATTERED GLASS
Written 17.10.2018
F (Dm Gm/Bb C)

Shattered glass The calm after the storm
Hard to see with these pieces around me
Still I want them all to get inside my head
Because the tears might lose their path

Don’t wanna see how life suddenly turned
It’s hard to be when loss is haunting me
I don’t wanna see any traces of the sorrow
Don’t wanna see this was not a dream

The pain is so much bigger than all we had
It seems I’m losing grip I’m not just sad
How could this ever happen I do not understand
Why did not anyone pull out their hand
How could this be

I am left with the shattered glass around me
The truth is I try to hide it all away
The pain is so hard I cannot grasp it
I try to make it go away but it doesn’t seem to work

I want so much to hold you. I want to see your eyes
I want to run and through my arms around your neck
How can you disappear from me in a second of a day
It all just seems so unfair it’s hard for me to stay

But I will and I’ll think of you
I will I’ll carry your heart around
I will ‘cause who else would then go ‘round
To carry your memory
Carry the sound of you

RAWHIDE
Written 21.02.2019

Rawhide where did you go X3
Where’s Mrs. Rechels wooden floor
Rawhide where did you go X3
Where’s Mrs. Rechels wooden floor

Arriving red light district of once a lively town
Seven thousand mouths to feed now buried in the ground
Nourished by the treasures of the plain old dusty rocks
The town grew prosperous from the Rawhide rustlers socks

Gold came running from the mine X3
A black spot of Nevada once looking fine
Gold came running from the mine X3
There were bars ‘n’ schools ‘n’ churches and many wheres to dine
Gold came running from the mine

Through the lifespan of a hedgehog the town began to fade
It didn’t help when fire struck in nineteen o’ eight
Then came flood and it left a hollow shell
They said this would be heaven
Turned out to be hell (but)

Gold came running from the mine X3
A black spot of Nevada once looking fine
Gold came running from the mine X3
There were bars ‘n’ schools ‘n’ churches and many wheres to dine
(...) And the gold came running

Rawhide where did you go X3
Where’s Mrs. Rechels wooden floor
Rawhide where did you go X3
Where’s Mrs. Rechels wooden floor

The open pit makes my heart sore X3
Where’s Mrs. Rechels wooden floor
The open pit makes my heart sore X3
Where’s Mrs. Rechels wooden floor

WITHOUT YOU
Written 07.10.2018
G

I never thought you’d travel all this way without me
I never thought you’d find a place to stay without me
I see your life how it shines upon your face
Looks to me like all the years made you strong without me

How could you run away How could you move on
How could you leave me crying on the floor behind your door without you

We are growing up so fast You seem to gently fade away
Two thousand days apart sure did wonders for my heart
Still I sometimes see your face sensing a tear within my eye
It happened o’ so fast I didn’t even get to say goodbye

How could you run away How could you move on
How could you leave me crying on the floor behind your door without you

When I look back at the girl I used to be
I remember all the tears she lost because of you
It hurts me to think of all the girls like me
Who gave themselves away though it wasn’t meant to be

How can you run away How can you move on
How can you leave us crying on the floor behind your door without you

THAT'S ALRIGHT
Written 02.07.2019
E

Sometimes life is gonna slap your face
Sometimes you fall
Sometimes honesty is hard to take in
We’re hiding away in our ball

But that’s alright You can let your guard down
That’s alright This blues is for you

Sometimes circus comes to your door
Sometimes it’s too much
Sometimes anger is your closest friend
Destruction with every touch

But that’s alright You can let your guard down
That’s alright This blues is for you
That’s alright You don’t have to feel strong
That’s alright You got nothing to prove

Sometimes memories won’t go away
Sometimes life gets you down
Sometimes you will need a rescue line
Pulling you in when you drown

Oooo… (X4)

That’s alright You can let your guard down
That’s alright You got nothing to prove
That’s alright You don’t have to feel strong
That’s alright This blues is for you

POOR OLD LIES
Written 13.02.2019

I ain’t scared of no devil
He ain’t got nothing on me
If I see him out on my doorstep
I’ll fight and he will flee

He keeps working on his image
He don’t want us to see
That he ain’t got no weapon
Just tricks to make us agree

With his poor old lies
(Poor old lies)
Poor old lies
(Poor old lies)

He’ll tell you you’re not worthy
He’ll tell you there’s no way
For you to wake up happy
For you to be okey

Those are poor old lies
(Poor old lies)
Poor old lies
(Poor old lies)

He’ll say you’re stuck in sickness
He’ll lock you up and go
But I believe in victory
‘cause the bible tells me so

I bury his poor old lies
(Poor old lies)
Poor old lies
(Poor old lies)

DON'T YOU STOP
Written 16.09.2018
G

If I could write you a letter from my heart
I’d give you credit no matter what
I know we all face trouble I know it sometimes hurt
It sure will brake you honey but don’t let it brake you down

Keep rowing Keep rowing
Don’t let the wind take you out
Even in rain Even min rain
Take your bucket and bail the water out
And don’t you stop

I see you sittin’ there honey hiding behind your coffee
A lifetime of sorrow holding you down
Don’t let go Don’t let go
Don’t stop breathing

Take your time Take your time
I’ll be waiting
Don’t let go Don’t let go
Don’t let your mind tremble and fall
Hold on Hold on
Hope is alive so go catch it with your hands
And don’t you stop

TOO LONG
Written 26.01.19
A

Too long you suffered
Death was on your door
Tears no longer covered
Every breath was sore

Hard was the battle
Life itself a loss
Where could you find sunshine
Hanging from a cross

Darkness lived among you
Hearts all made of stone
Who were they to claim you
Marking every bone

Who were there to hold you
Who would hear your cry
The world would tear your minds out
For braking free or try

Too long you sufferes
Planters had their way
Strange fruit on the branches
A price too hight to pay

WILL YOU BE THERE
Written 03.06.19
Dm (C Am)

Shut the lights in the streets
Show me the reality of life
Don’t hide your face
Come out and meet me in the dawn

I will be there

Take a breath were you are
Are you happy with who you’ve come to be
Would you turn around
Would you leave your safe zone for a while

This is when
This is when you can turn around
It’s your time
It’s your time to change

Will you leave your ways
Will you leave your old ways now
Will you be there
Will you be there in the dawn

I’ll be waiting

LIKE AN EAGLE

I was running with the wind like I was a sailer
I was running with the wind like I was a sailer
I was running with the wind like I was a sailer
Now I’m flying like an eagle high in the sky

I threw my fear at the door like I was a fighter
I threw my fear at the door like I was a fighter
I threw my fear at the door like I was a fighter
Now I’m flying like an eagle high in the sky

Like an eagle in the sky
Not scared to live not scared to die
Like an eagle in the sky I am flying
Like an eagle in the sky
Not scared to live not scared to die
My gully it is good to be alive

Ain’t no fear gonna hold me down (X8)

Like an eagle in the sky
Not scared to live not scared to die
Like an eagle in the sky I am flying
Like an eagle in the sky
Not scared to live not scared to die
My gully it is good to be alive
