Inside me a storm is brewing
As I gaze out on the ocean
Scathing thoughts rush through my mind
And bitter tears have made me blind
Sunny skies won’t make no difference
On my lonely island far from home
Cause I’m stuck here
At the frontier
Won’t be lazing on the beaches
Have no urge to test the waters
No cold drinks are served tonight
No disco lights are pumping bright
Instead I dance with faceless lovers
Drink a toast to Madame Loneliness
Cause I’m stuck here
At the frontier
Cold fear
Has me nailed to the chair
How come the world is fading?
All my senses seem to be on leave
Will someone ever find me?
How can anybody see me grieve?
Still I’m longing for a new life
Got to build myself a life raft
Venture out on the open sea
That’s the only chance for me
I should will myself a new world
Where you sit impatiently and wait
Cause I’m stuck here
At the frontier
Cold fear
Has me nailed to the chair
Fear - that’s keeping me down
No help in sword or king’s crown
Hope - a flighty creature
A servant of the preacher
Fear - that’s keeping me down
No help in sword or king’s crown
Hope - a flighty creature
A servant of the preacher

Silent
A sea of starlight
Faces
A dream of tears
The earth is shaking
The heroes fall from grace
The heaven’s aching
A prayer holds no promise
I wonder why dolphins are grey
Once I knew a circus clown
That would tell me bitter jokes
Of days long gone
And cruelty
For all to see
And Man wasn’t found
To handle hope with
Care and love

Seething waters
Demand I return to shore
Howlin’ northern winds
Ask me what I am looking for
Lightning strikes above
Tries to set my good ship ablaze
There’s no rest for me at all
No end to the troubles I face
Still the whispering song drives me on
Still its spell keeps me moving
How I miss you now that I’m gone
Now it seems I feel the Gods reproving
Never give my thoughts to the sea
Never loose my torchlight
Will I ever know I am free?
Can I ever win this tough fight?
Soon I’ll get there
To the loneliest isle on Earth
Leaving ship behind
To seek out the song and mirth
Through the forest
to the Cottage of Lost Play
I’ll present my errantry
And the reasons for coming to stay
Still the whispering song drives me on
Still its spell keeps me moving
How I miss you now that I’m gone
Now it seems I feel the Gods reproving
Never give my thoughts to the sea
Never loose my torchlight
Will I ever know I am free?
Can I ever win this tough fight?
Wondrous lady
Please help me sort out this life
Heal my hidden wounds
Help me settle my inner strife
By your fire
Let me slowly get warm inside
So I one day can venture forth
to return with the sundering tide
To the Cottage Of Lost Play
I will reach it; I will stay
To the Cottage Of Lost Play
I will reach it; I will stay

Think of how the tide has been turning
How the winds have changed
Now the mighty forests are burning
So estranged
What sweet Earth, did you do to deserve this?
Even the wise cannot say
All I know, we are crossing a threshold
With the ultimate price to pay ..... dear
Life was hard, there’s no point in denying
Your gifts with praise we received
One day sweet; the next terrifying
In Gods we believed
Gaining knowledge to pave our road in life
Still we lost in the end
As we struggled to tame Nature’s forces
We gave up being Nature’s friend ..... dear
Money and steam
Powers the dream
Of the perfect world
Top of the chain
How mundane
Human reign unfurled
You have tried to warn us
Of the luring edge
Man thinks he is soaring
Though it’s nowhere near time to fledge
Exploit and destroy
Don’t be coy
If it pays the bills
Vulnerable Earth
No rebirth
Still we offer pills
You have tried to warn us
Of the luring edge
Man thinks he is soaring
Though it’s nowhere near time to fledge
So we are falling
And there’s no saving us ......
