TIME TO KILL (3:57)

Take a good look around
You can lose yourself in the lost and found
Cell phones, lunch, a lonely dirty sock
A bunch of smelly shirts, a broken lock.
You’re moving up in the world
Your engines on, your sail’s unfurled
Just hear your inner voice
‘Cause when you’re on your own
You’ve got the choice
Social studies on the streets
And science in the halls
The writings is on the walls
Mathematics is in the air
Bilingual on the box
Biological clocks, you’ve got
Time to Kill, and you’ve got a
Brain to fill.
Dreaming of kissing in the sand
Screaming ‘cause they don’t understand
Wishing for wheels and ways
Of winning freedom
Everyone’s got a fear
Of a reptile, or the dark or something queer
It’s strange the things we dread
And how we hide our little fears
In our little head.
What do I want to say?
Don’t wanna lecture you, done that today
Just be who you are
Cause you’re neater, cooler, nicer
Like that by far

THESE ARE THE EYES (4:26)

One dream, one thrill, one hell of a hill
One goal, one will, one fate to fulfill
These are the eyes that are smiling for you
These are the eyes of a friend
These are the hands that applaud from the heart
I am with you till the end
There's more to come, you are what you're from
Bright lights, shared dreams, it's all what it seems
These are the eyes that are smiling for you
These are the eyes of a friend
These are the hands that applaud from the heart
I am with you till the end
Don't stop! We're moving on, the journey's only just begun
Get set, there's still time yet
If you’re feeling free and fine
Follow the yellow line
Winding its way through your world
One breath, one mind, one future to find
One grin, one grind, you’re one of a kind
These are the eyes that are smiling for you
These are the eyes of a friend
These are the hands that applaud from the heart
I am with you till the end
I am with you till the end

KISS THE GROUND (3:18)

She said, “Sit with me a while,
I’ve had a rough day, give me a smile
Oh your soft touch makes me shiver
And your funk beat makes me quiver”
Well, some days you get really lost
And some days you get found
You gotta laugh
And kiss the ground
Oh, you’ll have your ups and you’ll have your downs
Things weigh a ton, then only weigh a pound
Just laugh, and kiss the ground
He said,” I know you’re feeling blue
So I’ll tell you what I’ll do
I’ll wrap you in my big strong arms
And display my many charms”
Well, some days you get really lost
And some days you get found
You gotta laugh
And kiss the ground
Oh, you’ll have your ups and you’ll have your downs
Things weigh a ton, then only weigh a pound
Just laugh, and kiss the ground

WHITE KNIGHT (3:21)
Charlotte Wrinch © 2006
charlottewrinch@gmail.com
Light a candle, take a look outside your window
Youʼre gonna have to go outside
Youʼve been waiting for a special kind of someone
Before your dream to love has died
When the White Knightʼs riding free across the skyline
Dare to touch him with your heart, and with your mind
ʻCause you want him, and he wants you
Light and breezy, never felt so good before
And you notice, that itʼs easy, loving even more and more
INSTRUMENTAL
Itʼs not easy sharing life with one another
The honeymoon soon fades away
You gotta take a little lemon with the sugar
A little darkness with the day
When the White Knightʼs riding free across the skyline
Dare to touch him with your heart, and with your mind
Cause you want him, and he wants you
Light and breezy, never felt so good before
And you notice, that itʼs easy, that itʼs easy
INSTRUMENTAL
Light a candle, take a look outside your window
Thereʼs so much love for you to do
Let your white light shine into the hidden cavern
Your White Knightʼs waiting there for you
And he loves you

HOLD ON (3:14)

Can you feel your spirit rising
On the crest of your white water?
You have spent a long time drifting
In the doldrums of your mind
Now you've found a teeming vibrance
In the beauty of creation
And elation for the simple love
That surrounds you all the time
Hold on, and prepare for a collision
Your survival's your decision
And your future's your own vision
Stand up and hold on
Cause you know you've got it in you
Every bone and every sinew
Hold on
Ooh, is this magic, or just another day?
Ooh tell me, tell me won't you say?
Is this a diamond, or just a lump of clay?
You've been warned your risking everything
With your silly senseless dreams
But imagine what you'd be
If you were stripped of all your creativity
Cause the queen remains the ruler
And the green eye holds it's view
And the foolish man remains the fool
No matter what you do
Hold on, it's not just another fight
Now you're lighting up your light
And there's no-one wrong or right
So, hold on
Cause you know you've got it in you
Every bone and every sinew
Hold on

ATTIC OF HELL (3:25)
Charlotte Wrinch © 2007
charlottewrinch@gmail.com
A windy roadway leads you
Into a city cool
You get a sense of story forming as you
Dive into a pool
And in among the fishes
You’re swimming from the south
The laws of nature guide you gauging by the
Current word of mouth
When will the water run away from the window?
You know that it’s been so swell
These last few days have seemed a smidgen static
Stuck in the Attic of Hell
Now you begin to ponder
Upon an inland sea
You see a murky fishbowl filled with
Economic history
You know the Big Fish loves you
He’ll swim to save the day
Then let the ones that aren’t worth saving know
They’d better learn to pray
The sun is slowly rising
The band comes marching in
And help is on its way regardless of the
Colour of your skin
The wind, it whistles “Dixie”
Above an ocean tossed
And life begins again for everyone
Except the ones you’ve lost
When will the water run away from the window?
You know that it’s been so swell
These last few days have seemed a smidgen static
Stuck in an Attic of Hell
When will the water run away from the window?
You know that it’s been so swell
These last few days have seemed a smidgen static
Stuck in an Attic of Hell

SECRET PARADISE (3:19)

charlottewrinch@gmail.com
Climbing on a waterfall
Hazy sunlight blinds the view
Hanging on a purple thread
Insect eyes are watching you
Phantoms fall like rain
The forest fills my brain
And we're, lost in love
The scene's so nice
In our SECRET PARADISE
Wee-ee-ooh, Fan-ta-sy
Wee-ee-ooh, Come with me
Miles and miles away from time
Anchored in a turquoise bay
Coral creatures, living jewels
Dolphins chase the sharks away
The planet's here to find,
An ocean fills my mind
And we're, lost in love
The scene's so nice
In our SECRET PARADISE
Wee-ee-ooh, Fantasy
Wee-ee-ooh, Come with me

THIS WE KNOW (4:20)
Charlotte Wrinch © 2006
charlottewrinch@gmail.com
Earth, a creature in space
Spinning in time, in it’s right place.
Alive, teeming and turning
Freezing and burning, Home to us all
This We Know, all things are one
This We Know, the web has been spun
We are woven together
And bound to the sun
Stone, a relic of time
Building the mountains, that we will climb.
Water, around and around
Rises to heaven, falls to the ground
This We Know, the depth of the seas
This We Know, the breath of the trees
Are the cradle of life
And the air all life breathes
INSTRUMENTAL
Drink, the wine of the stream
And toast to the soil, and river clean.
Eat, the bread of the field
Indulge in the riches, without sword or shield
This We Know, She is a bird
This We Know, She’s every word
And She whispers the promise
That her children have heard
