TO THE NORTHERN SEA
by BLACKDOGHAT
Stay away
from those who keep you down
Will you come with me?
I΄ve had enough of this town!
Let΄s break free
from the gloomy days we΄ve known
We΄re setting out to sea
We need some time of our own
Growing faith is everlasting
We dance around our inspiration tree,
everlasting, evergreen!
Leave behind your pain and sorrow
We΄re safe and sound!
Come join me in my dream,
everlasting, evergreen!
Come along with me I΄ll save you
Take you away
from the raging tempest in your heart
Guide your journey and protect you
Help you out
with the making of your sailing chart
Chase away
unhappy thoughts that block your mind
Forget about all those
who΄ve treated you unkind
Sail away!
To the Northern Sea
Won΄t you come with me?
I gotta leave today!
Growing faith is everlasting
We dance around our inspiration tree,
everlasting, evergreen!
Leave behind your pain and sorrow
We΄re safe and sound!
Come join me in my dream,
everlasting, evergreen!
Off we go! Don΄t forsake me
Stop the wind
from stirring memories of my broken love
Come along with me and make me
care again
for all that΄s written in the stars above
I΄m on my way
I got a World to see
Won΄t you come with me
to the Northern Sea?
Growing faith is everlasting
We dance around our inspiration tree,
everlasting, evergreen!
Won΄t you come with me?
… everlasting, evergreen…
To the Northern Sea…

DROWN IN ME
by BLACKDOGHAT
Why must we always pretend?
Keep it inside and the pain never ends
They can’t know all that is within
Just let go and see the blood soaking our skin
Underneath the smiles
Can’t you see in our eyes?
Drown in me
The life you can’t feel
Drown in me
All the pain
Drown in me
See us -what are we to you?
How can you judge us by the things you’ll never do?
You can’t know all that is within
Just let go and see our lives staining your skin
Underneath the smiles
Show me where’s the life
Underneath the smiles
Show me where’s the life
Drown in me
The words of goodbye
Drown in me
All your tears
Drown in me…
Underneath the smiles
Show me where’s the life

BEFORE MY EYES
by BLACKDOGHAT
It has been going on and on
A pitch black moment, way too long,
seems like it΄s going to last forever
Then haunting images appear
of summer days so bright and clear
Of times we could have spent together
And then I come to realize
I see it all flash before my eyes!
This is the day I die
I΄m on my way to say good bye
This is the day you sigh
alone in our bed without a cry
And then I come to realize
I see it all flash before my eyes…
A primal fear soon gets me down
In burning tears I΄m bound to drown
Am I awake or am I dreaming?
The spirit jerking in my flesh
cries for my life caught in the mesh
I wish I knew with what I΄m dealing
And then I come to realize
I see it all flash before my eyes!
This is the day I die
I΄m on my way to say good bye
This is the day you sigh
alone in our bed without a cry
And then I come to realize
There΄s no denying -
your beauty unfolds before my eyes!
Alive!
I΄m alive!
It΄s all before my eyes
My eyes!
Ooooooh…
And then I come to realize
There΄s no denying -
your beauty unfolds before my eyes!

ANGELS OF US
by BLACKDOGHAT
Angels of sin, with wings you will not see
Eyes of a child, a soul never free
Stories on skin, stories told with no words
Hiding within, amid searing thoughts
Fallen angels of life, a path never chosen
No tears to cry when everything΄s broken
Pain with no feeling, no feeling for life
Wondering “why, why am I alive?”
Hidden angels of darkness, darker than night
Twisted in judgments that say it΄s not right
Confessions to silence, shining divine
Beautiful horror, torture of mine
Angels of virtue, a truth that΄s not real
Angels of death
All that we΄ve been
Angels of sin, with wings you will not see
Eyes of a child, a soul never free…

ELECTRIC
by BlackDogHat
Feel the lightning hit the ground
See the sky light up with flashes all around
The night is sharp, the air is clear
Electricity is breaking everywhere
Oooh, it΄s electric!
It΄s electric! Electric…
Catch the sparks and we΄ll ignite
We΄re gonna be, we΄re gonna be alright tonight
Use the power, make it yours
The heat is rising, let΄s give it all we΄ve got
Oooh, it΄s electric!
It΄s electric! Electric…
Take hold and sense the energy
The world΄s on fire, release your passion to the night
The static΄s building up the atmosphere
Let΄s explode and send lightning in the air
Oooh, it΄s electric!
It΄s electric! Electric…
Feel the lightning hit the ground
See the sky light up with flashes all around
The night is sharp, the air is clear
Electricity is breaking everywhere
Oooh, it΄s electric!
It΄s electric!
Yeah!
Oooh…
Electric…

SUNDAY PAPERS
by BLACKDOGHAT
Messing around with the Sunday papers
Nothing to do, but waste the day
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Again
Coffee and tea and nice tea biscuits
A walk by the sea, along the shore
Taking it easy
Taking it easy
Taking it easy
Today
Turning the pages, reading the stars
Getting excited about football scores
You΄re the only
You΄re the only
You΄re the only
One for me
Watching a movie, sit in the dark
Staying up late, don΄t want it to end
Getting so cozy
Getting so cozy
Getting so cozy
Tonight
Messing around with the Sunday papers
Nothing to do, but waste the day
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Again
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Never be lonely
Again

SOME THINGS ARE WORTH LIVING 4
by BLACKDOGHAT
I΄m walking down this street like every day
Somehow all the colors turn to grey
Deep inside my mind this feels so wrong
Why should I still carry on?
The sun and stars I love don't shine for me
I am someone they can't see
If I could realize
All the life still in my eyes
Some things in life are worth living for
You're the only reason I know
I will never give up like before
I know you will never let go
Even if the light in me should end
And my life comes to an end
No it΄s not your fault I couldn't know
Some things are worth living for
Now I've let the painful times pass by
To people whom I love, I've said goodbye
Every time I've looked in their eyes
Saw what cannot be seen twice
Wish I could've told them I could see
All that I once used to be
If I could find a way
To let them know all I must say
Some things in life are worth living for
You're the only reason I know
I will never give up like before
I know you will never let go
Even if the light in you should end
And your life comes to an end
No it’s not your fault you couldn't know
Some things are worth living for
Even if the light in you should end
And your life comes to an end
No it’s not your fault you couldn't know
Some things are worth living for

ONE LAST QUESTION
by BLACKDOGHAT
It’s over
It has been
for a while
It doesn’t even hurt much
anymore
I put my dreams back
on the shelf
again
Young love won’t break
dreams
in the end,
only hearts
a little
Yet, please, one last question before you go
I’m not going to ask you why you stopped loving me,
I just want to know
did you ever?

DREAMS
by BLACKDOGHAT
Dream your dreams
We΄re all in this
What do we do
Gotta prove you΄re good
Dream your dreams
Can΄t reach the stars
What you wanna be
What you wanna have
It΄s out of reach
It΄s out of grasp
Dream your dreams
Just distant strangers
All our hopes
That time erases
The doors are closed
They will not open
Trapped in between
Another dream
Dream… Dream…
Who do you show
How do you know them
Where do you go
And it΄s all over
Dream your dreams
Just distant strangers
All our hopes
That time erases
Waiting for luck
It΄s never there
Not what you want
No one else cares
It doesn΄t work
Another life
It΄s all just dreams
Time leaves behind…
