Gettin into Trouble, I’m Gettin into Trouble, Again
Gettin into Trouble, still Gettin into Trouble, Again
I get up in the morning and ah’m a gonna to do right
I see the road ahead of me and wrong looks so right
I know its wrong deep down in my soul
And when ah’m on the easy road there’s no getting off
Even though ah know that it’s wrong
Justifying doin it deep down in my mind
Go with you or leave you alone
Trouble Gettin into Trouble Trouble follows me around

out of the depths
03:07
|

out of the depths I cry to you, oh lord, hear my voice.
oh, let your ears please attend to my cry, my cry for mercy
if you oh lord kept a record of sins, oh lord, who could stand?
but with you there is forgiveness, therefore you are feared.
chorus
i wait for the lord, my whole soul waits,
and in his word, I put my hope.
i wait for the lord, my whole soul waits,
and in his word, I put my hope.
more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
oh Israel, put your hope in the lord, for with him love is unfailing
and with him is full redemption. he himself will redeem Israel from all their sins
from all our sins

undercover
03:24
|
|||
To the city, though it likely blows my cover
Got to go and meet ‘the man’
Outside café with an ice cream and the paper
He’s arriving on the tram
Undercover, my life is not my own
All you see of me is sham, never ever get to be alone
Want to have a conversation with the man inside my head
It’s a pointless conversation the path it leads to is a dead…..end

Don’t always follow the crowd / No need to follow the crowd

Chorus (repeated throughout the song)
Enter by the Narrow Gate broad is the road to destruction
Enter by the Narrow Gate don’t have to follow the crowd
Spoken sections
Each path you try has a set of instructions simple to follow and easy to read
But when you start to apply the instructions that’s when the obstacles grow in your mind
Human desire’s a powerful entity not just so easy applying control
Will must compete with desire and overcome Then you will get to the heart of the maze
Verse
Into the Maze or Away…….
Round, round start a - gain
Enter the Maze if you will (can)….
Not many enter the Maze

Chorus (repeats throughout)
Into the Maze or away Round, round, start a - gain
Enter the Maze if you will /can Not many enter the Maze
/ Not everyone enters ………
Spoken section 1
Each path you try has a set of instructions simple to follow and easy to read
But when you start to apply the instructions that’s when the obstacles grow in your mind
Human desire’s a powerful entity not just so easy applying control
Will must compete with desire and overcome Then you will get to the heart of the maze
Spoken section 2
Who do you turn to for guidance within the maze is there a guide to the paths in this maze?
Yes, there’s a guide but how do you contact them Answer is there in the heart of the maze
Each path you try has a set of instructions simple to follow and easy to read
But Human desire’s a powerful entity not just so easy applying control

graveyards
05:51
|
|||
I’ve been in the Maze now for 20 30 40 50 years
Taken many turnings confronted by my vices and my fears
Trust the guide to get me home because there has to be much more than this
Perfect destination for the pilgrim on the journey to find bliss
Life is filled with graveyards for the memories of friends who never were
People passing through your life and taking what they want without a care
Bitterness that festers has destroyed the life that once you could have had
Songs that no one wants to hear the melodies that only leave you sad
Cast into Graveyards Memories of friends you never had
Down to the Graveyard Memories of friends who never were

when you awake in the dead of the night the voices are there the voices are real
the voices in your head are real driving you crazy driving you mad
when you awake in the dead of the night the pounding in your chest is real
the pounding in your chest is real
what do you do when the voices are there driving you crazy driving you mad
what do you do in the dead of the night the pounding in your chest is real
when you awake in the dead of the night the voices are real the voices are real
the voices in your head are real driving you crazy driving you mad
into the Maze or away x 4
enter by the narrow gate x 4
broad ways lead to destruction x 4

celestial city
05:03
|
|||
City Celestial where all is forgiven
No feeling guilty for what you’ve done wrong
There you encounter your guide and your king
open the portal and welcome him in
For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is still to come
Marching to the lasting city …. Repeats

treasure
03:36
|
|||
Chorus
Where your treasure is there your heart is
Where your treasure is there your heart is
Where your treasure is there your heart is
All along
Verse A-1
I guess that no-one really wants to die
that for rich folks growing old could be a pleasure
But for some of us as end of days draws nigh
we’d just rather straight away to find the treasure
Chorus
Verse A-2
When you wake up from a dream do you wish you were still in it
All life’s fullness isn’t real if it is then I can’t reach it
Verse B-1
Thought my life was like a song rising strong to verse and chorus
But a song without a bridge ……is not a song and no-one hears it
Where your treasure is there your heart is
Where your treasure is there your heart is
Where your treasure’s been there your heart’s been
All along
