Stranger

STRANGER - Written by Carroll Bryant



Just a little while ago
It seemed I had you wrapped around my finger
And just like some distant dream
You fade away
Yeah, you go

When I wake up
I can't remember what we were all about
Those feelings just won't come back to me
I guess they're gone

Just like you stranger
And your love
Just who were you stranger?
And what do you call your kind of love?
I'm talking to you stranger
But you don't even hear a word, do you?

Need I have to say my love was true?
Need I have to prove that everything was you?
Well, if you think I do then you will just never understand
And you never will - never did 
And you never will again

If you look into my eyes 
You will see the fate of your lies
If you look into the blue
You still might see a heart that's still in love with you

In love with you stranger
And your love
Just who were you stranger?
And what do you call your kind of love?
I'm talking to you stranger
But you don't even hear a word, do you?

You will never understand me

You refused to realize my soul to soul
You got so scared and out of control
No, I don't think you realize
No, I don't think you do

Goodbye to you stranger
Goodbye to your kind of love
I hope you find yourself stranger
And find a name to call your love
I'm talking to you stranger
But you don't even hear a word, do you?

Goodbye to you stranger

Must Have Been Crazy

MUST HAVE BEEN CRAZY - Written by Carroll Bryant


I never would have believed it
To hear what you had to say
You couldn't have been any colder
Why did you do me this way?

Your attitude is so deceitful 
It leaves much to be desired
Kicking me to the curb like this
Girl, you sure know how to put out a fire

To think I once cared for you
I was lost inside a song
You sure opened up my eyes girl
They have been closed for so long

I don't know what to say
I just don't know what to say 
Except, except .... Oh yeah

I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you
I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you

Blinded as a bat girl
Yeah, I guess that was me baby
The lights have been turned back on 
In the dark I couldn't see

How big of a fool I must have seemed
When I was hanging all over you
To awake from inside this silly dream
Is now a dream come true, girl

I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you 
I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you

Now I have got to wonder what's to become of me
With the help of my friends, baby
Maybe I can again believe
Believe that I can make it
After all that I have taken
I believe that I can make it

You know I'm going to make it 

Looking in the mirror I can still see a fool
But I know I must have been crazy to have ever been crazy for you

I never would have believed it
To hear what you had to say
You couldn't have been any colder
Why did you do me this way?

I don't know what to say
I just don't know what to say 
Except, except ...... Oh yeah

I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you
I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you
I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you
I must have been crazy to have been crazy for you

Looking For Mr. Goodbar

LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR - Written by Carroll Bryant



She's going out every night from bar to bar 
Hoping to get it right
Looking for Mr. Goodbar

What does she expect to find In a world full of strangers?
Any night could be her time
Forgetting all of the dangers

She's the girl you don't suspect 
The innocent kind
Hanging out at the disco-tech with one thing on her mind

She's looking for Mr. Right
For Mr. Goodbar
She's looking for Mr. Tonight
For Mr. Goodbar, Mr. Goodbar
For Mr. Good Time daddy tonight

Can't you tell me what she's looking to get?
I'd really like to know
Is it love filled with regret, or is it all for show?

What does she expect to find in world full of shadows?
Watching as she runs out of time
Going where the wind blows 

She's looking for Mr. Right
For Mr. Goodbar
She's looking for Mr. Tonight
For Mr. Goodbar, Mr. Goodbar
For Mr. Good Time daddy tonight

Now she's taking another guy home
It's just an average night
All because she doesn't want to be alone
A disease that is hard to fight

This is the night that it will end
No more playing the game
As she feels the pleasure touch can bring
As she feels the knife that delivers the pain

What happened to Mr. Goodbar?
What happened to Mr. Goodbar?
What happened to Mr. Goodbar?

She's looking for Mr. Right
For Mr. Goodbar
She's looking for Mr. Tonight
For Mr. Goodbar, Mr. Goodbar
For Mr. Good Time daddy tonight

I Want That Girl

I WANT THAT GIRL - Written by Carroll Bryant


I want that girl
I want to get her into my world
I want that girl
What's happened to me?

She's got that special kind of magic
That you can see in her eyes
And if there's one thing about it
They sure can hypnotize

And now I got her on my mind
Everyday and all the time
Good love is hard to find
You know I wish that I could make her mine

(And you know that)

I want that girl
I want to get her into my world
I want that girl
What's happened to me?

I used to be a simple man
Already had my future planned
How I wanted to stay free
How I changed so suddenly

Could it be I fell in love?
I mean, she's all I'm thinking of
Do you think it might be true?
That she could feel the same way I do?

I want that girl
I want to get her into my world
I want that girl
What's happened to me?

There doesn't seem to be a way
To get up the nerve to say
Exactly how I feel
But I think I will

I know I ought to take a chance
On sweet love and romance
Even though I never felt before
All this kind of love and more

(And you know that)

I want that girl
I want to get her into my world
I want that girl
What's happened to me?

I want that girl 
I want that girl
I want that girl

What's happened to me?

The Child

THE CHILD - Written by Carroll Bryant


The darkness reaches down on the city
There's a lady having a baby, and it's so pretty

It started out with love in the city
It's ending with just one parent, and that's a pity

The child is born into a destructive world
He will carry the gift of the word to try and save it

Writing will be his life
He will do it be it wrong or right
The child will take on the fight for all of mankind

With his magic he will make people listen 
To the truth 
He is one or maybe he is two different people
Wrapped up in just one soul
He will lead you where you refuse to go

He is the child of love
He is the child of truth
He is the child

Free in a controlled colony, he is
He is a clone, never alone, he is
There is a destiny 
There is a fate 
There is a chance that he could be too late

Man and his frivolous laws could be his downfall 
And nobody will offer him help when the time comes

He is the child of love
He is the child of truth
He is the child

The challenges that he will face 
Are memories that will be replaced 
A child in the wild of the race 
The human race

Born into a vanishing world
The child will have to carry the word
The sword of the written word
And the universe will absorb the hurt

He is the child of love
He is the child of truth
He is the child 

There's an effort in the heart
Where evil wants to rip apart
Everyone, everything in its wake
It's a government thing

And time will repeal
What cuts that won't heal
Time will run out
The people will shout out loud
That they don't care no more
And the dead will lay quiet on the floor
And the blood from their war will pour
And pour
And pour

Time will run out, but won't end

Frog In Your Throat

FROG IN YOUR THROAT - Written by Carroll Bryant



You never talk to me when I talk to you 
You never say to me that you love me too
Sometimes I wonder why we're still together
You know what I'm talking about 

Why don't you talk to me?
Say something, say anything 
Why can't you speak?

Have you a frog in your throat?
Are you choking on your words?
Does the cat got your tongue?
Are you on the run?
You got a frog in your throat

Hallucinations coming over me, but I can't scream
The sound just won't come out when I'm in a dream
No voice, can't yell, what could that mean?
How can I cry for help if I'm muted?

Have I a frog in my throat?
Am I choking on my words?
Does the cat got my tongue?
Now I'm on the run
I got a frog in my throat

Politicians when they sometimes tell a lie
They say uh .... they say um 
 Or better yet, when they don't say nothing at all
They ought to say goodbye to the dumb
The secrets they keep in the White House
The secrets that would shock the world
Who is the raven? Who is the mouse?
Who has the pretty girl?

When the president comes out to make his speech
There's some things he just won't say
Some things he just won't preach

You never talk to me when I talk to you
Why in the hell won't you speak?
What in the hell are you keeping from me?
 
Have you a frog in throat?
Are you choking on your words?
Does the cat got your tongue?
The Prez is on the run
He's got a frog in his throat

Yes, It's Love

YES, IT'S LOVE - Written by Carroll Bryant



I never thought it would feel this good
You're making love like I knew you would
I don't think I can handle this
I fell in love with more than just a kiss tonight

I never thought that all my dreams
Would someday become a reality 
Oh baby, what you do to me
This can't be true, it just can not be tonight

Yes it's love
Aint life such a wonderful thing?
Yes, it's love
I didn't know what it could bring
Yes, it's love
Until you made love to me tonight

Yes, it's love
And I'm doing all I can
Yes, it's love
To be the kind of man
That you want me to be
I'm doing my best tonight
Doing my best tonight

I never thought I would find the girl
Who could suddenly change my world
And if I never do again
Well, I did tonight

I never thought that the sun could shine
I never thought that love could be mine
You give me such a feeling inside
Such a feeling that I can not hide tonight

Yes it's love
Aint life such a wonderful thing?
Yes, it's love
I didn't know what it could bring
Yes, it's love
Until you made love to me tonight

Yes, it's love
And I'm doing all I can
Yes, it's love
To be the kind of man
That you want me to be
I'm doing my best tonight
Doing my best tonight

I lay myself down in healing waters that make me feel alive
You give me such a wonderful feeling that girl, I can't deny
I can't even try, not even to save my life
You make me feel so good inside girl

Yes it's love
Aint life such a wonderful thing?
Yes, it's love
I didn't know what it could bring
Yes, it's love
Until you made love to me tonight

Yes, it's love
And I'm doing all I can
Yes, it's love
To be the kind of man
That you want me to be
I'm doing my best tonight
Doing my best tonight

Dancer (The Poem)

DANCER (THE POEM) - Written by Carroll Bryant


I have traveled far
I have dreamed so many times
I have lost my perspective
But gained back my peace of mind

Lost in your eyes upon the first time we meet
Can't lose you now because love doesn't come cheap

Dancer
Swiftly you move upon a lovely white cloud
Dancer
Listen real closely, I say I love you out loud
Never mind the heartbeat that skips when I hear your voice
Never mind the dark streets I passed by due to choice
I need you dancer

I still travel far
I still dream all of the time
I'm still without my perspective
I still have my peace of mind

Lost in your grace upon the first time we touch
Can't lose you now because I love you too much

Dancer
Swiftly you move upon a lovely white cloud
Dancer
Listen real closely, I say I love you out loud
Never mind the heartbeat that skips when I hear your voice
Never mind the dark streets I passed by due to choice
I need you dancer

Lights (Road To Stardom)

LIGHTS (ROAD TO STARDOM) - Written by Carroll Bryant



There she is with that man
He's a producer, she understands 
And yes she's willing to give up everything
She says she can handle what being a star can bring

No she's not nervous because she wants it that bad
And guys like him, she's already had
They spend the night together, it means nothing to her
She's gonna get what she wants, and that's for sure

She says, give me the lights 
Give me some action
Roll the cameras 
I'm gonna be a star 
Just give me the lights

There she sits with diamonds and pearls
She's a high class lady in a high class world
And yes she's daring to get more and more
She never turns down a script that walks right through her door

She says, give me the lights
Give me some action
Roll the cameras
I'm a big time star
Just give me the lights

Now it's over, and the curtain is down
Nobody needs her, they don't want her around
And if you ask her just how she feels
She's gonna tell you that she loved it still

She says she loved the lights
She loved the action
They rolled the cameras
She used to be a star
She says she loved the lights

Secrets

SECRETS - Written by Carroll Bryant


So you thought I would never find out
Girl you know you look so surprised
But baby I had my eyes out on you
I finally caught you, but it took me some time

Now you say that it's all a game
And it looks like you win 
But all the love in this great big world 
Could never win me back again
Yeah, oh yeah
Never win me back again

All the secrets that you had
And now I'm glad it's time to say goodbye
Because baby you were so bad
But there's no tears in this mans eyes

And baby it's such a crying shame
And I ought to thank my stars above
Because baby I'm not feeling no pain
Well I guess I was never deeply in love
Yeah, oh yeah
Never was deeply in love

Now I'm leaving, and you know what for
I don't think I need to say it again
Now you can watch me walk out the door
Oh baby, this is the end

So now you know where those secrets can lead
And now you've lost everything
Oh baby, what more can I say?
Now you know what bad love can bring
Yeah, oh yeah
Baby what bad love can bring

Just Emotion

JUST EMOTION - Written by Carroll Bryant


When you feel it, it can make you happy
At any moment it can make you cry
Like the rain, I say it can pour all over you
Like an umbrella, it can keep you dry

Like pornography, it can be so dirty
Like a religion, it can be so clean and holy
It's a race car on a track with no speed limits
It's a rocket ship taking you to the stars

It's emotion
Wild as the ocean
Such a mystery tangled up inside of me
Just emotion
Like the still of the night
Just emotion
It's okay to feel

Just like candy, it can be so sweet
It's a Halloween with a trick and treat
It's confusion that you can't comprehend 
An illusion that seems to never end

It's emotion
Wild as the ocean
Such a mystery tangled up inside of me
Just emotion
Like the still of the night
Just emotion
It's okay to feel

It lets you know that you are real
Don't try to kill yourself thinking about it
There's nothing that you can do about it
It lives in me
It lives in you
Just a little something to get you through

It's emotion
Wild as the ocean
Such a mystery tangled up inside of me
Just emotion
Like the still of the night
Just emotion
It's okay to feel

All You Are

ALL YOU ARE - Written by Carroll Bryant



There’s a full moon tonight
You can’t sleep to dream
Huddled up inside yourself

Tears that you cry
Call out in a scream
You’re too weak to put up a fight

A wicked wind still blows right in through your soul
Casually you whisper words to say


All you are is a little bit lonely
All you are is a little bit low and cold
And the world turns without the glory

All you are is a little bit crazy
All you are is a little bit growing old
And the world wants to know your story

There’s memories to write
Pens without the ink
Cuddles left inside your heart

Touches left behind
She’s so far away
You’re too strong to give in tonight

A wicked wind still blows right into your soul
Casually you whisper words to say

All you are is a little bit lonely
All you are is a little bit low and cold
And the world turns without the glory

All you are is a little bit crazy
All you are is a little bit growing old
And the world wants to know your story

You can’t help the way everything went down
You try to find your place on the other side of town
You can’t save the day when it’s spinning all around

Suddenly the answer finds its way – but it’s too late

A wicked wind still blows right into your soul
Casually you whisper words to say

All you are is a little bit lonely
All you are is a little bit low and cold
And the world turns without the glory

All you are is a little bit crazy
All you are is a little bit growing old
And the world wants to know your story

Take It Like A Man

TAKE IT LIKE A MAN - Written by Carroll Bryant


I've been searching every minute, every hour
For a love that's strong and real
And just because the last one went sour
Doesn't mean that I can't feel

It's fruitless though, but I don't care anymore
I keep the pain inside of me
And one thing is for sure

I take it like a man
I take it like a man
I will survive
I do the best I can
I take it like a man
Yeah, I take it like a man

I've been walking the streets forever
At least that is what it seems
The kind of girl that could put me back together
Can only be found in a lonely mans dreams

I've been hurt, but that is nothing new
Everybody has to deal sometimes
Everybody has to go through it too

But I take it like a man
I take it like a man
I am alive 
And here is where I stand
I take it like a man
Yeah, I take it like a man

So I have cried myself to sleep 
I've dropped some tears
I still stand strong and face to face
I face my fears
I won't let love get me down
I'm gonna keep on pushing through the darkest clouds

I've been searching every minute, every hour
For a love that's strong and real
And just because the last one went sour
Doesn't mean that I can't feel

It's fruitless though, but I don't care anymore
I keep the pain inside of me
And one thing is for sure

I take it like a man
I take it like a man
I will survive
I do the best I can
I take it like a man
Yeah, I take it like a man

Be

BE - Written by Carroll Bryant


You can be a flower in the middle of Spring
You can be the finger that wears a diamond ring
You can be a raindrop
Or you can be the snow
You can be the one who's coming
Or be the one who goes
You can be filthy rich or you can be poor
You can be exciting or you can be a bore
You can be anybody
You can be so much and more
Be anything

You can be a bird or you can be a fish
You can be a dream come true
Or you can be a wish
You can be big or you can be small
You can be short or you can be tall
You can be a talker
Or you can be a phone
You can be with somebody
Or you can be alone
You can be the only one or you can be a clone
You can be anybody
Be anything

No one can tell you you're wrong
You have every right to sing your own song
Carry your own tune 
That's what I do
You can be anything and you know this is true

You can be happy or you can be sad
You can be nice or you can be bad
You can be the person who owns the whole world
You can be anyone and you can be so much and more
Be anything

As long as you remember to be yourself

Somewhere In Christmas Land

SOMEWHERE IN CHRISTMAS LAND - Written by Carroll Bryant


You are a part of me
An angel from my history
You're the air that I breathe on Christmas Eve

I am the one in you
We come together like we always do
Never to let go
You're everything that I know
Yes, you are a part of me

Time can stand still when you hold my hand
I am fulfilled right here where I stand
Your love is for real and this is my plan
To always stay with you somewhere in Christmas land

The days go so fast
It would be great if they asked
What I desire and I'd say that I want you

The nights go to sleep
These wishes I will keep
Never to let go
You're everything I know
Yes, you are a part of me

Time can stand still when you call me your friend
It's such a thrill that I can't understand
Your love is for real and this is my plan
To always stay with you somewhere in Christmas land

Somewhere in Christmas land children are singing
Bells they are ringing
Somewhere in Christmas land I keep believing 
I can't stop from dreaming

You are a part of me
An angel from my history
You're the air that I breathe on Christmas Eve

I am the one in you
We come together like we always do
Never to let go
You're everything that I know
Yes, you are a part of me

Time can stand still when you hold my hand
I am fulfilled right here where I stand
Your love is for real and this is my plan
To always stay with you somewhere in Christmas land

Somewhere in Christmas land
Somewhere in Christmas land

Mother Load

MOTHER LOAD - Written by Carroll Bryant


Everybody's going 'round looking for a heart of gold
I took it one step further, I found the mother load

Now you know that it's true
The person I'm talking 'bout is you

I found me the mother load of the heart of gold
I found me the mother load of the soul of gold

Everybody's going 'round looking for moneys fame
I'm rich in the heart ever since you took my name

 Now you know that it's true
The person I'm talking 'bout is you

I found me the mother load of the heart of gold
I found me the mother load of the soul of gold
I found me the mother load of the heart of gold
I found me the mother load of the soul of gold

And when I see you smile
And when I hear your voice
Life seems so worthwhile 
There is no other choice 
And when I think about it
There's only one thing you could be
You're only one thing to me

The mother load

I found me the mother load of the heart of gold
I found me the mother load of the soul of gold
I found me the mother load of the heart of gold
I found me the mother load of the soul of gold

This Is The World

THIS IS THE WORLD - Written by Carroll Bryant


I see a ghost flying over me
Some kind of spirit, will it let me be?
Or will it conquer my mind, body and soul?
Will it answer questions that I need answered so?

Millions of people live their daily lives
They have adapted to their daily routine
They are only visions of what time has made of them
They are the people who share this planet with me

This is the world that I live in
(You and me)
This is the moment that I only care about 
This is the ruin of my destiny
This is the world that I would choose to live without

I hear a voice that is calling out my name
Sounds as if it comes from somewhere down below
But I raise my hands to the clouds and the man
Who is to answer the questions I need answered so

What is the meaning of this life that we lead?
Is it a duty that is handed down to you and me?
Over and over I think all of the time
Life is but a journey and you'll leave something behind

This is the world that I live in
(You and me)
This is the moment that I only care about 
This is the ruin of my destiny
This is the world that I would choose to live without

I see a ghost flying over me
Some kind of spirit, will it let me be?
Or will it conquer my mind, body and soul?
Will it answer questions that I need answered so?

This is the world that I live in
(You and me)
This is the moment that I only care about 
This is the ruin of my destiny
This is the world that I would choose to live without

Human With Wings

HUMAN WITH WINGS - Written by Carroll Bryant


I want to fly away someday
And search for another reason to live again
Maybe love is the answer
I don't know
The situation's too complicated to say
I want to fly away

Like a human with wings
That's what I want to be
A human with wings
So I can fly away

A human with wings
That's what I want to be
A human with wings
So I can fly away

Fly through the night skies 
A heart in flight
And remain in tact with life again
Travel through time and space and then
See what I can find again
I want to fly away

Like a human with wings
That's what I want to be
A human with wings
So I can fly away

A human with wings
That's what I want to be
A human with wings
So I can fly away

I want to fly away someday
And serach for another reason to love again
Maybe soul is the answer
I don't know
The situation's too complicated to say
I want to fly away

Like a human with wings
That's what I want to be
A human with wings
So I can fly away

A human with wings
That's what I want to be
A human with wings
So I can fly away

Under The Overpass

UNDER THE OVERPASS - Written by Carroll Bryant


Down under the overpass 
Dreams are  scarce and they die fast
Nobody knows who they want to be
But it's simple, you see

Down under the overpass
Dreams are scarce and they die fast
Nobody knows who they are
It's so bizarre 

And the people make excuses
For being late to the party
And the ones who got there early
Wanted to leave before it started
And the reruns on the TV 
Are getting older than you and me
But just like life, I'm sorry
That's just the way it's got to be

Down under the overpass
Dreams are scarce and they die fast
Nobody knows what to do
For me and for you

Down under the overpass
Dreams are scarce and they die fast
Nobody thinks in terms of fate
That's a mistake

And the people take from a wealthy man
And gives it to somebody else
Who has their own little cookie jar
Stashed up on a shelf
And it's crazy the way we breathe and live
And sometimes it makes me cry
There's so much for us in this world to give
So much before we die

Down under the overpass
Dreams are scarce and they die fast

They die fast

The Living Dead

THE LIVING DEAD - Written by Carroll Bryant


You know sometimes life seems like such a waste
The bitter pill we all have to swallow has such a nasty taste
The hustle and bustle of day in and day out
Leaves me wondering, hey, what's it all about?

Why are we living?
Why are we here?
Doesn't anybody have the answer?

We're called the living dead
Death already has us
We are the living dead
It's wrapped us and trapped us
We're dead

Oh, you got to get me out of here
I'm an alien of life
I don't belong here
You got to get me out
Got to get me out
You got to get me out tonight

We're called the living dead
Death already has us
We are the living dead
It's wrapped us and trapped us
We're dead

We are the living dead

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I'm dead
Oh, my God, I'm dead
Oh, my God, we're dead
We're all in this death trap
We're dead
We are the living dead

Sweet Jesus knows we're dead
Death already owns us
We're dead
We're called the living dead
Everybody in this whole dead world knows it
We're dead
The world is the home of the living dead

 Hey, what's it all about?

Prostitute

PROSTITUTE - Written by Carroll Bryant


I look around
I see them there
People who just don't care
So I don't care 
What they do
Because deep inside
We're all prostitutes

Prostitute, prostitute
We only want the money
Prostitute, prostitute
No one really cares
Prostitute, prostitute
We only work for money
Prostitute, prostitute
Oh yeah

Occupations
The names we give them
Dedication
Loyalty is true
But you wouldn't
Want to do it
If the money
Wasn't coming back to you

Prostitute, prostitute
We only want the money
Prostitute, prostitute
No one really cares
Prostitute, prostitute
We only work for money
Prostitute, prostitute
Oh yeah

It really doesn't matter what you wanna do
Turn on the meter
(Turn it on)

We want the money

You're never gonna do what you wanna do
There's nothing in your heart
Nothing in your soul
Nothing in your heart

Money, money, that's all we know

I look around
I see them there
People who just don't care
So I don't care
What they do
Because deep inside
We're all prostitutes

Prostitute, prostitute
We only want the money
Prostitute, prostitute
No one really cares
Prostitute, prostitute
We only work for money
Prostitute, prostitute
Oh yeah

Kiss Of The Angel

KISS OF THE ANGEL - Written by Carroll Bryant


Face of beauty with a look in the eyes
A striking resemblance to nothing
Mixed emotions on life and death
A self proclaimed king

Master minding all the make believe
Where possibilities still exist
Understanding all the misconceived 
Bowing to make an exit

Then one night from know where
A light floats down to earth
Leaving traces of inspiration
Releasing the knowledge of the legend of

The kiss of the angel
It's the mark of a lonely man
A stationary loving feeling
Sorry that no one came to see it

Words of wisdom with a change of heart
Occupying space with nothing
Mirrored illusions of destiny and fate
A universal king

Monitoring all the fantasies
Where collaboration still exists
Always denouncing reality
Bowing to make an exit

Then one night from know where
A light floats down to earth
Leaving traces of inspiration
Releasing the knowledge of the legend of

The kiss of the angel
It's the mark of a lonely man
A stationary loving feeling
Sorry that no one came to see it

Blood falls from the eternal wound
The broken heart

Blood falls from the eternal wound
The broken heart

Blood falls from the eternal wound
The broken heart

Blood falls from the eternal wound
The broken heart

Emotion Pictures

EMOTION PICTURES - Written by Carroll Bryant


I was watching a movie
And it was so sad
I started crying
My friends were laughing
So sentimental
But I know that deep down inside 
They were feeling it too

Emotion pictures
They control us all
Emotion pictures
They make you laugh and cry
They make you wonder
Emotion pictures

I was looking at a photograph
A naked lady
So sensational
It made me horny
She drove me crazy
So powerful
And my friends, they all say the same
They only buy the magazine for the articles

Emotion pictures
They control us all
Emotion pictures
They make you laugh and cry
They make you wonder
Emotion pictures

I was reading the daily paper
A tragic story
Another murder
They wrapped the body 
In a green canvas
An ugly picture
Yes I know that it's so scary
The possibility of it happening to me

Emotion pictures
They control us all
Emotion pictures
They make you laugh and cry
They make you wonder
Emotion pictures

The Ocean

THE OCEAN - Written by Carroll Bryant


I hate to say it, but tonight is the night
I got to do what my heart says is right
I'm not going to lie, and I want you to understand
That I'm a dreaming man

I know it's gonna hurt when I say goodbye
And deep down inside I know that I am gonna cry
But I got these feelings that I just can't hide, and I need you to understand
That I'm a dreaming man

And when ever you look out over the ocean
You might as well be looking out over my dreams
Because they spread that wide, and they run that deep
And no one will ever know what they mean to me
Not even me

I know when it comes to us, I see how hard you try
But footloose and fancy free is something I can't deny
Together I know how high we could fly, but try and understand
That I'm a dreaming man

I hope you can forget me when I'm gone
Promise you will forgive me if I'm wrong
I have to embrace the road to my pot of gold
And it's where I have to be so say you understand
That I'm a dreaming man

And when ever you look out over the ocean
You might as well be looking out over my dreams
Because they spread that wide, and they run that deep
And no one will ever know what they mean to me
Not even me

I could slap the face of the bitch that is my life
But where do you think that will get me?
I could dance the wedding with the bitch that is my wife
But tell me where that would lead me?
You don't really need me 

In the end, do you think I'll really be that happy?

I hate to say it, but tonight is the night
I got to do what my heart says is right
I'm not going to lie, and I want you to understand
That I'm a dreaming man

And when ever you look out over the ocean
You might as well be looking out over my dreams
Because they spread that wide, and they run that deep
And no one will ever know what they mean to me
Not even me

Flesh And Bones

FLESH AND BONES - Written by Carroll Bryant



We are made of the flesh
We are made of the bones
Spend a lifetime destroying our hearts and our souls
We are made of the magic
The magic's unknown
We are made of the flesh
We are made of the bones

Can we see beyond the night?
Can our eyes stand the sight of the light?
Will evil prevail?
Are we all doomed for hell?
Or is hell just made up in our minds?

I want the answer!
I want it now!
Not in a prayer!
Some other way, somehow!
I want the truth!
And still keep my youth!
But I am only flesh and bones
Don't you fear the great unknown?

We are made of the flesh
We are made of the bones
Spend a lifetime destroying our hearts and our souls
We are made of the magic
The magic's unknown
We are made of the flesh
We are made of the bones

Can we see beyond the night?
Can our eyes stand the sight of the light?
Will evil prevail?
Are we all doomed for hell?
Or is hell just made up in our minds?

I'll find the answer!
I'll keep on searching!
Not in a prayer!
Not in the churches!
I'll get the truth!
And still keep my youth!
Even though I'm flesh and bones
I don't fear the great unknown

Does it make you scared?
Do you even care?
Do your feelings show because we're all gonna go? (Blow)
And we are only flesh and bones

We are made of the flesh
We are made of the bones
Spend a lifetime destroying our hearts and our souls
We are made of the magic
The magic's unknown
We are made of the flesh
We are made of the bones

A Boy With Unusual Vision

A BOY WITH UNUSUAL VISION - Written by Carroll Bryant


They say I'm a boy with unusual vision
But they can't see my dreams
I'm just a writer patiently waiting to die
I'm just a fantasy

My mind isn't real
My thoughts are just make believe
I'm just a writer constantly wondering why

A toy to be played with by unknown confederates 
Who thrive on the blood of the fools
The world could be ending
But they are still editing
The film of a life of the new

They say I'm a boy with unusual vision
I want my dreams to come true
I'm just a writer patiently waiting in line
I am one of the fools

I'm a piece of the action
I'm lonely and scared
My hair should turn grey in my prime
I lose my cool
My sense of direction
yet I'm still feeling fine

I talk to the ghosts inside of my soul
They tell me where to go
To find a way to find all the answers
I find them, and still I don't know

Just a boy ... Just a toy
Just a boy ... Just a toy

They say I'm a boy with unusual vision
And then I am told I am blind
I'm just a writer patiently waiting to die
Before my time

A creature of sort that knows no better
Someone no one would want to find
I'm just a writer constantly wondering why
Wandering through life
Waiting to die

Dreams Of Destiny

DREAMS OF DESTINY - Written by Carroll Bryant


I have spent all of my life living inside of my head
Trying to decide my destination
Running away from my heart and into the land of the dead
It's a wicked world of pure fascination

I appear to be licentious, yet I don't know why
Always suspicious of the look in people's eyes

Had a recent vagary, something was plaguing my soul
I've been instructed of implanation
And nothing could be as scary as to never not to know
The outcome of all life's situations

I appear to be batrachian, living in my own pond
Taking down dictations of a thought that suddenly dawned

Dreams, not reality, is going to be my destiny
Dreams are not what they seem to be, but they appear to be
My destiny
And death is the destiny of man

Maybe I'm a hamal, putting too much weight on myself 
When I try to overcome my secret pain
Escaping dark rituals from a past that resembles hell
I'm always talking to voices inside my brain

I would like to be Byronic, but I adopted a style for me
I would like to be caballo, grazing in a pasture and living for free

Dreams, not reality, is going to be my destiny
Dreams are not what they seem to be, but they appear to be 
My destiny
And death is the destiny of man

Journey To The Stars

JOURNEY TO THE STARS - Written by Carroll Bryant


In flight by night
My soul is a passing spirit passing by
In flight by daylight
I am in the form of a human being

Journey to the center of a flaming volcano
It's my heart that's gonna erupt tonight

In flight by night
My mind is soaring wildly 
Through the darkened taverns in the sky of endless sight

Journey to the stars
Journey to the words I say
Journey to the end of time
Journey to the world we've made

In flight by night
Confusion is passion of death from fright
In flight by daylight
Reality has dawned on me
I am a human being

Journey to the center of an active volcano
It's my mind that is going to explode tonight

In flight by night
My thoughts are roaming wildly 
Through the shallow waters
In the river of my heart

Journey to the stars
Journey to an escapade
Journey to the end of time
Journey to the world we've made

Wrath Of The Dragon

WRATH OF THE DRAGON - Written by Carroll Bryant


This fire breathing monster is holding me back
It's taking all that I got to fight off his attack
He surely has an advantage flying around in the sky
I got to shoot my arrow right into his eye

But the flames are burning heavily upon my mortal skin
I got the courage to stand and fight
I got the courage to win
But I can feel it
The wrath of the dragon
The wrath of the dragon
I know my heart is still draggin
The wrath of the dragon is wearing me down

I hear the cries of my people, fear in every tear
I only fought for a night, but it feels like a year
If damnation is eternal then why do it this way?
Got no special potion, got nothing today

If believing is so easy then what do we do with the hope?
Can't let it slip away 
And go right up in smoke
But I can feel it
The wrath of the dragon
The wrath of the dragon
I know my heart is still draggin
The wrath of the dragon is wearing me down

The flames are burning heavily upon my mortal skin
I got the courgare to stand and fight
I got the courage to win
But I can feel it
The wrath of the dragon
The wrath of the dragon
I know my heart is still draggin
The wrath of the dragon is wearing me down
