BLOOD RUINS FILM
Over, my significant self.
Reverse, the honor of my despair.
We, find loyalty in faith.
I'm faith, we find inspiration.
Now it's gone, never again
Now it's gone, blood ruins film
Now it's gone, never again
Now it's gone, blood ruins film
Reason, has seemed to reach its end.
Belief. We take and we acquiesce.
And in this move, we try and design life.
Design, has led to frustration.
Now it's gone, never again
Now it's gone, blood ruins film
Now it's gone, never again
Now it's gone, blood ruins film
Now it's gone, never again
Now it's gone, where did it begin?

HOTEL DeVILLE
On the wind, the line is falling
The sound of sea, driving distant
Beneath the street lamp, the spurned crowd
You're on her, by those on that train
On the train
Watchful men, through auto window
And women wept, imprisoned pain
She melts beneath, the departing kiss
By the Hotel De Ville, frozen on that train
On the train
On the wind, the line is falling
The sounds of sea, and driving distant
She melts beneath, His departing kiss
By the Hotel De Ville, frozen on the train
On the train

T H E S T A I N
~ music and lyrics: Jeff Gallea & James Tabbi 1987
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and cast it ashore
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and drank the wine
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and cast it ashore
We took the blood, my brothers blood, and painted finger paints
And now we suffer, The stain of man
And now we suffer, The stain on my hand
The Stain
We took the hand, the hand of God, and made plaster casts
We took the hand, the hand of God, and painted finder paints
We took the hand, the hand of God, and made plaster casts
We took the hand, the hand of God, and fit him with rings
And now we suffer, The stain of man
And now we suffer, The stain on my hand
The Stain
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and there's a ring in my ear
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and there's a thorn in my side
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and there's a ring in my ear
The sky is falling, the sky will fall, and the sea will not part
And now we suffer, The stain of man
And now we suffer, The stain on my hand
The Stain

TURN TO SILENCE
w o r d s : Ja m e s T a b b i m u s i c : E L E V E N P O N D 1 9 8 7
Turn to silence, almost there
Feel inspiration, it cannot care
You mean so much to me, this much I see
Because of you I've come to be the key
The sun will set before the sun will rise
The reason why it's lost between the sky
There is no reason I'm leaving
Give intuition a common theme
I've come to laugh now at that myself
cause in fact there is nothing else
The sun will set before the sun will rise
The reason why it's lost between the sky
The sun will set before the sun will rise
The reason why it's lost between the sky

GOLD & GREEN
Why can't I say a word you give me
It seams that speech has up and left me
I wrap my eyes in gold and green lame
The thoughts are parched, my beauty speeds away
Look at my thoughts, hang them on the wall
You strike my doubts, your atrophy has all
You gave me license to rip the chord apart
I lay it down, try to make a start
Green and gold, green and gold
Wrapped in words I am told
Gold and green, gold and green
Wrapped in colors I have seen
Now that you're gone I'm speaking different
I thought there is no need for hesitance
I read the letters I wrote for you to read
And thought the reasons why now it's you who flee
Look at my thoughts, hang them on the wall
You strike my doubts, your atrophy has all
You gave me license to rip the chord apart
I lay it down, try to make a start

Land Of Yellow
Late at night I turn my head
With candle sticks around my bed
And when I sleep I dream of you
A Land Of Yellow, somewhere new
In this yellow land alone
I think about my friends at home
I found it all comes down to you
But in this dream what can I do
My body groans in sleepy poses
Wrapped in love and faded roses
So when I go to sleep at night
I dream of you in candle light
What are you going to do
When it comes through?
The Land Of Yellow,
somewhere new
When I go to sleep at night
I dream of you in candle light
I dream of you...

VANDYKES COLLAR
Look down here please someone I'm dying
I can't see my pain anymore
I spent far far too long in crying
Could someone pick me up off the floor
I can't comprehend your frustrations
I'll try not look and not touch
Surrender to self realizations
But I don't think that means all too much
I give you time, now you are gone
I need some relief from this tension
That tears me apart at the seams
My shirt sleeves my only connection
My strength is far worse than it seams
Look down here please someone I'm dying
And appear that don't look all too bad
Please help me somebody I'm crying
Don't help me I'm better off dead
I give you time, now you are gone
I give you time, now you are gone
