lyrics

VS 1
THIS LIFE IS LIKE A DARKENED ROOM WHERE SOMEONE STOLE THE DOOR
I ONLY WISH I KNEW WHAT I SHOUILD BE SEARCHING FOR
THEY SAY IN TIME YOU WILL FIND EVERYTHING YOU NEED
BUT HERE IN THIS EMPTY PLACE I CAN’T EVEN FIND A KEY

BRIDGE
THIS WORLD IS TURNING UPSIDE DOWN AND THE SKY IS FALLING IN
AM I THE ONLY ONE IN TOWN TO KNOW THE STATE WE’RE IN?
NO TIME, NO PLACE, NO VOICE, NO PLACE
VS 2
I TRY TO BE A GOOD MAN ALWAYS STANDING TALL
BUT I CAN’T SEE THE MASTER PLAN, CAN’T SEE IT THROUGH THIS WALL
AND THE WORLD OUTSIDE IS DEAF AND BLIND, IT DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN
‘BOUT THE TROUBLES OMN MY MIND, WON’T LEND A HELPING HAND
BRIDGE
THIS WORLD IS TURNING UPSIDE DOWN AND THE SKY IS FALLING IN
AM I THE ONLY ONE IN TOWN TO KNOW WE JUST CAN’T WIN?
NO TIME, NO PLACE, NO VOICE, NO PLACE
VS 3
MY HEART IS LIKE AN OPEN DOOR WITH NO-ONE WALKING THROUGH
THOUGH I CAN’T HIDE THE PAIN INSIDE IT MEANS NOTHING MUCH TO YOU
SO HERE I LIVE AND HERE I’LL STAY NO TROUBLE TO YOU ALL
EVERYBODY PASSES BY THEY’RE NOT WAITING FOR MY CALL
BRIDGE
THIS WORLD IS TURNING UPSIDE DOWN AND THE SKY IS FALLING IN
AM I THE ONLY ONE IN TOWN TO KNOW THE SHAPE WE’RE IN?
THE SHAPE WE’RE IN , THE SHAPE WE’RE IN

Barry Kingsbeer Stratford Upon Avon, UK

I've played bass and sung since I was 13. Pro back in the sixties for a while doing the beat group thing through to some spectacularly unsuccessful recordings. Over the years I've been lucky to have worked with some great players. I started writing songs in the 70s but not seriously until a few years ago. I write to please myself but if anyone likes anything that they hear here - that's a bonus. ... more
