First To Be 06:11
First To Be © 2004/2005 Howard's Chapel Author: John D Johnson Some people think they've got it made in the shade with a 5 year plan Soon discover that there really was no plan at all Still others believe in a system of arcane delight Sweet tradition proven in times of misery Even more invest in a lifetime of reality In 15 minutes, you too become the apple of Eve Even more put their hope and trust in contingency plans While the old men draw the plans for tomorrow's royalty As the price to be alive multiplies by 5 prepare to die We will soon see what the end's game really means(is) I believe there is more to it than we've been told I believe the one day we will truly be free At the crossroads Left or right More or less A question right When the hour arrives Will you be ready? Willing and able? Tiny demons and tiny angels Rest on your shoulder One or the other When the hour arrives Will you be ready? Willing and able? At the crossroads guitar solo Try as you might You won't get ahead Though you got God's hand Though won't rule the land! So get up and wipe that mud off yourself and stand up tall And face the wind and find what is That's the long haul! I believe that one day we will be in paradise Just like 2 robbers on the other side of Christ I believe that there's more to life than contingency plans Than a portfolio from a Dow Jones industrial man I believe in the way to life, into paradise I believe in the path to love I'm not afraid to lie open to your scorn No, not afraid To take a hit for he, who saves I believe that we'll be living in paradise I believe there's no feat that can be outdone

Whoah! Yeah! They died My Father, your Father My Father, your Father, My Father, your Father My Father, your Father, They've thrown it all away! And we have no religion Instead we have faith And hell hath no fury Like a woman scorned As we move through life stages There are no open spaces So don't ask what Jesus would do Because I think we all know what he would do Yes I think we all know what to do Yes I think in our heart we know As we kneel in the darkness As we dwell in our cages As we move thorugh life's stages There are no open spaces Yes I think we all know what to do Yes I think in our hearts we know Yes I think we all know what to do Yes I think we all know what to do In our hearts we know the right thing

Alyssa's Room © 2004/2005 Howard's Chapel Author: John D Johnson Turn my back insert the blade Draw some blood through out the day Shift a pattern Continue the dance What is mine is mine not yours By request You guide me in Deep within your warming life While outside what up is down Doesn't matter ignorance is in : Will no one take the time to see? Keep on going Keep in on Bury your thoughts in a pile of work Alyssa's room is a place to be Thoughts of wonder from x to z I'd tell you myself But I haven't got time Trumpet solo Safe inside your velvet dark Take me to your sacred vow Fires to burn, passions to live Thoughts of wonder From x to z Everyone knows that life is wrong Is anyone bold enough to play To provide the need We hear to stay Keep on going Keep in on i'd try it myself But I haven't got time synth solo Alyssa's room is a place for me Thoughts of wonder from x to z I'd tell you myself but I have no time Family dysfunctions carry on You show me yours I'll show you mine I'll show mine I'll show you mine I'll show you mine.....

Horizons 07:16
Horizons © 2004/2005 Howard's Chapel Author: John D Johnson Back in the day You know as they say? We did in a day or so it seemed to be The best laid plans The earnest deployed Now they're all gone Horizons Horizons And the future calls on Though memory is strong And the pain lingers on With dreams of simplicity In a moment of time Inhibitions we're none And when we made love We glistened in the Sun Shrouded in doubt Decisions been made Now it's been done Horizons Horizons The lady's not here Translation unclear Concrete and steel, of dreams that drew so incredibly high No more Horizons Horizons Progress abounds The promise of Life Where has it gone? Horizons Horizons And the future drives on With the pain, lingers on And the future calls on For those who hope on, simplicity guitar solo Old and in the way "It's progress", they say In with the new Out with the old, no more And the future drives on With the pain lingers on And the future calls on For those who hope on, simplicity Amen

Fear not No evil For shadow's valley long See here no people Blinders on Unanswered questions So many have we The shortest path to Heaven Is the one not chosen guitar solos

Go To Mars 04:41
On any given morning What if you woke up to the notion That if you didn't have any problems You'd be considered normal As you reach for a bottle of prozac You think "should I switch to zanex?" "Should you call up the family doctor?" "should you say a prayer instead?" Have you often ever noted? That we wait until the hammer falls Dare we ever approach enlightenment Or go unto the house of the Lord Though I may sound demented Or you may think I'm only venting Or perhaps I'm only attempting to say That your only blocking the way guitar & monster bass solo Did you phone in that prescription? Or find that new dimension? Or the new found glory tradition? Or the answer in your head? Did you think we sailed the ocean? Do you think we made the stars? Do you think that emotions matter? When your brought up to the light? Do you think we went to the moon? Do you think we'll go to Mars? Or do think it's all a conspiracy? Designed by an elder race's Sun?

A Wink And No Prayer © 2004/2005 Howard's Chapel Author: John D Johnson Somethings in the way To keep my soul away It may just be a feeling yeah Compulsions underway She will have you Taking you play by play She will kill you Season dawns again Somethings in the way To keep our souls at bay We're in for easy livin but The army's up the road Peace could have you Giving Grace today She will love you Season dawns again Somethings in my way To keep my soul away It may just be reality Compulsions underway She will love you Pray twice today He who hath none Cast the first stone And we all get stoned We all got stoned We all get stoned We all got stoned We all get stoned We all got stoned
