Lyrics by Thomas Gunn

Punk Rock is My God.

Intro

Punk rock ain’t no fashion statement,
It’s a way of life, a bad religion.

Verse

Guitar, the drums,
Worshipping the sound,

Sweating in moshpits,
Jumping in the crowd,

Out till lock out,
We cannot be stopped.

Pre Chorus

Renegades & wild child’s,
Carving up this path,
For punk rock to give rise,
A religion must start.

Chorus

Bad religion,
Bad religion,
Punk Rock is my God.

Rebelling & partying,
Screaming from our lungs!

Bad Religion,
Bad Religion.
Punk Rock is my God.

Rebelling & partying,
Screaming from our lungs!

End chorus

Walking the streets,
Picking all the fights.

Memory is sketchy,
Wildest night of nights.

High On these Drugs,
Up until the sun.

Pre Chorus

Renegades & wild child’s,
Carving up this path,
For punk rock to give rise,
A religion must start.

Chorus

Bad religion,
Bad religion,
Punk Rock is my God.

Rebelling & partying,
Screaming from our lungs!

Bad Religion,
Bad Religion.
Punk Rock is my God.

Rebelling & partying,
Screaming from our lungs!

End chorus

Post Chorus

My saviour,
My saviour,
Punk Rock is my God.

My saviour,
My saviour,
Punk Rock is my God.

Outro

Punk rock ain’t no fashion statement,
It’s a way of life, a bad religion.

How long, how long,
Will this go on;

I’m dragged down by the weight of it all

I cant see, I cant see the wood,
from the trees;

I’m so low, how far will I fall

Pre-Chorus

I’m done being tired and stressed.
I’m given up all of my fears,

I’m ready to leave this mess
There’s only one way outta here

….. Chorus….
A
I’m on the rise,eee
So let me go, let me fly now

A
The rise,ee
Vibing right, vibing high now

B
I wont be falling down again
I’m in control from here on in

A
I’m on the rise,eee

Verse 2

From now on, now on
I know who i am

I feel alive and i'm hearing the call

There’s so much, so much
That i can give

I feel the love, and im receiving it all

Pre-Chorus

I’m done being tired and stressed.
I’m given up all of my fears,

I’m ready to leave this mess
There’s only one way outta here

Chorus

A
I’m on the rise,eee
So let me go, let me fly now

A
The rise,ee
Vibing right, vibing high now

B
I wont be falling down again
I’m in control from here on in

A
I’m on the rise,eee

—------Post/Outro….

I found my calling now

calling now,calling now,

Authentic Stroll

We are the author,
It’s our life story,
Each chapter we write;

Each word we live,
Breathing it in;

Aiming to win,
Our heroes journey;

Rather be real,
Than perfect;

If you fail at first,
Pick yourself up;

Start Chorus

Left foot, right foot,
Left foot, right foot;

Walking To the beat,
To the beat of my heart;

An authentic stroll,
Of my own soul;

Left foot, right foot,
The story unfolds.

End Chorus

There will be times,
When all seems lost;

There will be times,
When your at the top;

That’s the point,
It’s up and down;

You’ve got to learn,
To enjoy the ride;

You only get one,
Make it worthwhile;

Start Chorus

Left foot, right foot,
Left foot, right foot;

Walking To the beat,
To the beat of my heart;

An authentic stroll,
Of my own soul;

Left foot, right foot,
The story unfolds.

End Chorus

Going,
Going,
Going,
Gone.

Going,
Going,
Going,
Gone.

Walking to the beat of my very own drum.

My Authentic Stroll.

Everything,
It’s inside us;

In front of our eyes,
Infinite possibilities;

Every moment,
A blessing.

Open your heart;

Just Surrender,
And Let it all flow;

Let it flow in,
Surrender to Life.

For Guidance,

And forgiveness;

I am the creator,
A divine being;

Encoded in me;

Open your heart;

Just Surrender,
And Let it all flow;

Let it flow in,
Surrender to Life.

So grateful;

For the feminine,
Feminine spirit;

Intuitive,
Creative,
Collaborative,
Vision-driven,
Receiving,
Nurturing,
Emotional,
Gentle,
Beauty,
Pleasure,
Evolving;
Trust &
Connection.

Thankyou dear sister,

Without the feminine;

Mmmmmm mmmmm

Let that sink in,
Where would we be?

Mmmmmm mmmmm

Rising Sun,
My Medicine,

The day is won,
Now you’ve woken up;

Up all night,
In Fight or flight;

I’m just so in love,
With the simple things;

Thank god for life;
For everything.

Gratitude it floods right in,
Fills my voids with mycelium.

Start Chorus

Rising Sun,
My Medicine;

Oh Grandfather,
My Rising Sun.

… Medicine
From the Ground
From Above.

End Chorus

Don’t get me wrong,
You can be tough;

Grandfather shows,
Where I don’t Show up;

Where I’m playing small,
Where I’m playing up;

Who I’ve done wrong,
Where I’ve not stood up;

Made from Cactus,
You take some practice;

You teach me patience,
You make me thankful.

Start Chorus

Rising Sun,
My Medicine;

Oh Grandfather,
My Rising Sun.

… Medicine
From the Ground
From Above.

End Chorus

Rising Sun

Oh Rising Sun

My Medicine

My Medicine

Grandfather

Oh Grandfather

My Medicine

My Medicine.

Past Life Lover

…

Ive met you before,
In a past life I’m sure;

I know how it goes,
I’ve been here before;

Hurt me once,
Shame on you;

Hurt me twice,
Shame on me;

I know it’s you,
It feels the same;

Intense but uneasy,
Hot but not safe.

Start Chorus

I’m moving on,
I promised I would;

The feelings are strong,
But I know when it’s wrong;

We’ve been here before,
This time You’re gone.

You’re a Past Life Lover,

A Past Life Lover.

End Chorus

A Heartbreak from Hell,
It didn’t end well.

I feel the same vibes,
When I stand by your side;

Your kiss is electric,
But I know it’s a trap;

You’re charismatic,
And I know it’s all fake;

It’s not too late,
I’m not in too deep;

Your just another,
Snake in the dark;

Start Chorus

I’m moving on,
I promised I would;

The feelings are strong,
But I know when it’s wrong;

We’ve been here before,
This time You’re gone.

You’re a Past Life Lover,

A Past Life Lover.

End Chorus

A past life lover

Ohhhh

A past life lover

Oooooo

A past life lover

Ohhhh

A past life lover

Oooooo

Goodbye old friend ….

Butterfly Feelings

That feeling …
it comes flooding in,

Makes me wonder …
have you always been;

So, so far from reach,
Yet so close to me;

You’ve been waiting patiently,
For me, from your end;

Waiting for me to bloom,
Emerge from my cocoon;

Can you fix them,
fix my wings for me,

...

You give me butterflies

Ohhhhhhhh butterflies

These butterflies never end,

It’s what I’m feeling,
Deep, deep, Deep within;

It’s what I’m feeling,
Deep, deep, deep within;

Ohhhhhhh

You give me butterflies.

...

I’ve been holding,
Holding out for you;

Been flying solo,
Up against the wind;

You spin my world,
back to flow again;

Leave the light on,
Leave it on for me;

Just enough, so I can see,
My way home to you;

Can you fix them,
fix my wings for me,

...

You give me butterflies

Ohhhhhhhh butterflies

These butterflies never end,

It’s what I’m feeling,
Deep, deep, Deep within;

It’s what I’m feeling,
Deep, deep, deep within;

Ohhhhhhh

You give me butterflies.

...

We’re in love,
Sweet, sweet love

Spread the love,
Sweet, sweet love.

The world needs love,
Sweet, sweet love.

You give me butterflies

Ohhhhhhhh butterflies …

My missing piece

I’ve been waiting,
For that missing piece;

Years of waiting,
For that love that heals;
For that love complete;

Wondering why it ain’t turning up,
Then I stop and think;

Could it be,
Could the missing piece be me.

Start Chorus

Pieces of me,
Fit perfect with you,
This story of love,
Meant just for us.

You’re my missing piece,
My missing piece, woaahh

You’re my missing piece,
My missing piece, woaahh!

The missing piece was me.

End Chorus

To be continued …

It just feels like home,

It’s where I belong,

God called me here,

My church families here.

Something pulled me in,

I just keep coming back.

•••

I’m coming home,

Ohhhh, I’m coming home,

Back to Glow,

Ohhhh, Back to Glow

•••

It’s where I found truth,

God’s living proof,

It’s where I found grace,

It’s where I found faith,

It’s my favourite place,

I just keep coming back.

•••

I’m coming home,

Ohhhh, I’m coming home,

Back to Glow,

Ohhhh, Back to Glow

I’m coming home,

Ohhhh, I’m coming home,

Back to Glow,

Ohhhh, Back to Glow

I’m coming home,

Ohhhh, I’m coming home,

Back to Glow,

Ohhhh, Back to Glow

Smiling Souls

Our souls are smiling;
There's no more crying.

Our souls are dancing,
There's no more numbing.

Our souls are healing;
There's no more bleeding.

I can feel our ancestors;
Feel their grand gestures.

let's turn up the frequency;
Let's step into our destiny.

God guide our path;
Shine light in the dark.

Return us to source;
Recharge our life force.

We are the love and the light,
Everything that he described.

Our souls are giving;
There's no more taking.

Our souls are living,
There's no more dying.

Our souls are thanking;
There's no more wasting.

Give me something

I can’t keep waiting,
Waiting for you.
That’s enough hard work,
Hard work for you.

It’s all from my side,
It’s the one way love type.
It’s time I let you go,
You just won’t let me in.

There’s heat in the chase,
But this is burning me out.
It’s been too long after you,
I’m just all out of breath.

...

Give me something,
C’mon baby,
Something.
Something at all.

Give me something,
C’mon baby,
Something.
Something at all.

...

I can’t love you any harder,
You won’t meet me halfway.
There’s been all these excuses,
Empty promises, mistruths.

There’s no thrill in this game,
You won’t step up and play.
I gotta no went to quit,
You’re not even in it.

You’re leaning on me,
You’re not here to grow.
It’s just a place for you,
A safe place to rest.

...

Give me something,
C’mon baby,
Something.
Something at all.

Give me something,
C’mon baby,
Something.
Something at all.

•••

You won’t even open up,
Maybe I’m too much for you.
I don’t expect the world,
I just want love from you.

I see you feel it too,
You keep it buried inside.
I can’t reach you babe,
Your walls are up sky high.

It’s just not moving forward,
Friends, is where you stay.
It’s time for someone,
Someone that gives.

...

Give me something,
C’mon baby,
Something.
Something at all.

Give me something,
C’mon baby,
Something.
Something at all.

•••

I’m not coming back,
It’s so over babe.

You didn’t even try,
You let me pass you by.

I’m spreading my wings,
Off to something fresh.

It’s time I floated on,
Just like a butterfly.

(Sexy laughter as the song fades off)

WE CAN’T BE FRIENDS

We can’t be friends;

You’re a stranger to me babe,

It wasn’t only the sex;

I need way more than this.

Baby just forget;

The drama and my mess,

I ain’t the same as them,

I thought that you knew this,

Thought that you knew this.

Blow it up,

Flip it right back on me;

That’s enough,

You enjoy arguing

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I never meant to make it end,

I thought we were still just friends.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We can’t be friends;

You’re the one who said,

we can’t be friends, nooooo;

We can’t be friends;

You’re just a memoooorrry in my head,

in my head,

In my heaaaaaaaad.

You hurt me mooooorre than anyone else;

Why can’t you babe, why can’t you babe;

Just give it a chaaaanccce.

My heaaaart breaks,

Each time the memories flood,

They flood inside me, a memory of you, yeahhh.

~~~~~~~~~~~

You’re blonde hair, You’re perfect skin;

You’re like an angel, With a hint of playful sin;

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We can’t be friends,

That’s what you said,

We can’t be friends,

You’re just a memory in my head.

In my head,

in my heaaaaaaaaddddd.

I want you back, I promise babe;

We can be friends,

Let’s start again;

Just give me a chaaaaaanncee.

Holy Spark

There’s a holy spark where the darkness used to be

There’s a holy spark where the fear used to be.

There’s a holy spark where the shame used to be.

•••

Holy, holy,
Holy spark burning bright in me.

Holy, holy,
Holy spark shining light in me.

There’s a holy spark where the weakness used to be.

There’s a holy spark where the jealousy used to be.

There’s a holy spark where the lust used to be.

Holy, Holy,
Holy spark burning bright in me.

Holy, Holy,
Holy spark shining light in me.

•••

There’s a holy spark where the pride used to be.

There’s a holy spark where the greed used to be.

There’s a holy spark where the selfish-me used to be.

Holy, Holy
Holy spark burning bright in me.

Holy, Holy
Holy spark shining light in me.

White Hot Desire

Blonde hair, smooth skin,
A hint of playful sin;

A twin flame, a lesson,
Like wild fire, she came in;

The chemistry, hot match,
You were such a catch;

Burning till the end,
Ashes and embers;

It’s all that’s left.

Begin Chorus

Midnight rendezvous,
Forbidden fruit;

Took one touch,
Hooked like drugs;

In love,
With lust;

White Hot Desire
White Hot Desire.

End Chorus

Nights out, lights out,
Making love to the sound;

The beating of your heart,
Your heart with mine;

Beating in time, as one,
Connected with love;

Burning till the end,
Ashes and embers;

It’s all that’s left.

Begin Chorus

Midnight rendezvous,
Forbidden fruit;

Took one touch,
Hooked like drugs;

In love,
With lust;

White Hot Desire
White Hot Desire.

End Chorus

You had me at hello.

You killed me at goodbye.

White Hot Desire

White Hot Desire

You had me at hello.

You killed me at goodbye.

White Hot Desire

White Hot Desire

Burning till the end,
Ashes and embers;

It’s all that’s left.

White Hot Desire

White Hot Desire

Poisonous Love

They run wild in my mind,
I lose control, concept of time;

They say all the right things,
The right words, at the right time;

But it’s never quite right,
Hiding in plain sight;

Hiding their true self,
Some secrets deep down;

Begin Chorus

I’m scared of real love,
I don’t trust my own heart;

They were snakes from the start,
Snakes in the dark;

They grip me so hard,

With their poisonous love.
Ohhhh poisonous love ….

End Chorus

They slide sly in the night,
I feel afraid by their side;

I don’t feel safe when,
When red flags show;

Smothering, controlling states,
The pattern - one I create;

Not this time, I won’t stay,
They fumble, they stray;

Begin Chorus

I’m scared of real love,
I don’t trust my own heart;

They were snakes from the start,
Snakes in the dark;

They grip me so hard,

With their poisonous love.
Ohhh poisonous love ……

End Chorus

I know what I want now,
I know what I need;

A man who sees me,
A man of my dreams;

A man who inspires me,
A man I believe;

A man I can follow,
Leading me back,

Back to the start;

Back to love,
Back to my heart.
