Nothing is Changing (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
My cellular didn’t change my life
Either did my beautiful wife
Woh no, nothing is changing
My virtual reality
Trips me off into fantasy
But oh no, oh nothing is changing
A voice in my mind says
Seek and you will find
I hear it in my head say
Follow where your heart is led
Oh, no nothing is changing
Could it just be my point of view
No, nothing is changing
Could it just be these eyes
That I’ve been looking through
The swimming pool in my back yard
Can cool the heat, but it can’t cool this fever
Burning in my heart
My bank account is overflowing
But in my soul
There’s still this empty throne
Where nothing matters anymore
Nothing matters no
Nothing matters anymore
Nothing matters no
A voice in my mind says
Seek and you will find
I hear it in my head say
Follow where your heart is led
Oh no, nothing is changing
Could it just be my point of view
Nothing is changing
Could it just be these lies
That I’ve been looking through
Oh nothing is changing
Nothing is changing…

Deeper (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
Somewhere in your heart there is a key
To unlock the door and set you free
From all of your pain and all of your fears
Make all your sadness disappear
You know I still believe
That all it takes is time
From where I stand I see
Life is a mountain we can climb
And we will grow
Stronger in the light of our love
Reachin’ for the heavens above
Deeper and deeper we grow
And I will always be there by your side
Through the longest day and the darkest night
I will never leave, we will survive
Our hearts will keep this love alive
As long as we can dream
The fire burns inside
The brightest star I’ve seen
Is shinin’ in your eyes
Oh and we will grow
Stronger in the light of our love
Reachin’ for the heavens above
Deeper and deeper we grow
Sometimes I feel just like
A frightened lonely child
But in your arms tonight
All my fears are miles away
We will grow
Stronger in the light of our love
Reachin’ for the heavens above
Deeper and deeper we grow
Stronger in the light of our love
Reachin’ for the heavens above
Deeper and deeper we grow
Stronger in the light of our love
Reachin’ for the heavens above
Deeper and deeper we grow
Deeper and deeper
In the light of our love

Blink Of An Eye (Neil Harnett © 1996 Socan)
Well life is so fast in these modern times
Take off like a flash and you can stop on a dime
But the fastest thing that I ever did see
Is the change of a heart and the end of a dream
In the blink of an eye like a flash of light
Hearts can change over night
Shatter your dreams and rip your soul
Leave you searchin’ for control
In the blink of an eye woh oh oh
Blink of an eye woh oh oh…
I never saw it comin’ out of the blue
Without a warnin’ you just said we were through
May not be no genius but I ain’t that dumb
Just yesterday you said I was your number one
Well in the blink of an eye like a flash of light
Hearts can change over night
Shatter your dreams and rip your soul
Leave you searchin’ for control
In the blink of an eye
My whole world turned upside down
And in a single heartbeat
All my dreams came crashing down
In the blink of an eye like a flash of light
Hearts can change over night
Shatter your dreams and rip your soul
Leave you searchin’ for control
In the blink of an eye woh oh oh
Blink of an eye woh oh oh…

Rubber Room Day

Rubber Room Day (Neil J. Harnett © Socan)
Got that feeling that I don’t like
There’s a war zone in my head
A million voices can’t be all right
I might as well go back to bed
Underneath the covers shut out the daylight
But I can’t turn off my brain
Feels like I’m waiting at a long light
And it’s never gonna change
Like a camera out of focus, like a singer out of key
Something’s pushing me right to the edge of sanity
Like a rhythm I can’t feel, like a drummer out of time
This feelin’ that I’ve got is driving me out of my mind
It’s a Rubber Room Day
I’m bouncing off the walls
The Devil wants to play
But God is in the hall
On this Rubber Room Day
Feels like I should be doin’ something
But I don’t know what it is
I just can’t find no explanation
Can’t find no answer to this quiz
Got an itch that I just can’t scratch
And it just won’t go away
Feels like I’m inside an egg that won’t hatch
I feel a meltdown on the way
Like an astronaut that’s weightless with no feet upon the ground
I’m floatin’ somewhere aimless I don’t know where I’m bound
Like a wise man with no wisdom, like a millionaire that’s broke
Nothing’s fitting in to this puzzle of a joke
It’s a Rubber Room Day
I’m bouncing off the walls
The Devil wants to play
But God is in the hall
On this Rubber Room Day
It’s a Rubber Room Day
I’m climbing up the walls
It’s a Rubber Room Day
I won’t be taking any calls
It’s a Rubber Room Day
I’m bouncing off the walls
The Devil is in the hall
On this Rubber Room Day
Rubber Room Day…

I Need You Real (Neil Harnett © 1996 Socan)
I’m so scared my soul is shakin’
My nerves are bare I feel forsaken
There’s bones in the closet and monsters underneath my bed
I know It’s true I might be crazy
This line to you is gettin’ hazy
But you know I can’t stop these pictures goin’ round in my head I said
Baby don’t run no don’t you run away from me
I’m comin’ undone, I’m beggin’ you to stay, oh please
I need you real…I need you real
I pushed your heart right to the limit
I made my bed and now I’m in it
I’m loosin’ count but I still can’t sleep at all
We’re like the moon, yeh we’re like the weather
Kinda spooky when we come together
There’s static in the air and the pressure is startin’ to fall
Baby don’t run, no don’t you run away from me
I’m comin’ undone, I’m beggin’ you to stay, oh please . . .
Momma said, Daddy said
We need you real…I need you real…

Watchin’ You (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
I thought I’d bin around, covered all the ground
Thought I’d seen it all
But then I met you, and you were all I could take
May not be love, but I’ve started to fall
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
I bin watchin’ you all night
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
You’re in my sights, alright
I bin watchin’ you all night
I hope it shows, ’cause I want you to know
That there’s nothing I can do
I’m hypnotized, I’m captured in your eyes
Show me the door that leads to you
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
I bin watchin’ you all night
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
You’re in my sights alright
I bin watchin’ you all night
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
I bin watchin’ you all night
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
You make me feel all right
Oh lady I, I’ve got my eye on you
You’re in my sights alright I bin watchin’ you all night
I bin watchin’ you I bin waitin’,
I’ve bin prayin’ I bin hopin’ for you, all night, alright
I bin watchin’ you, watchin’ you
I bin watchin’ you, watchin’ you…

Broken Ties (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
I wanted so, to watch you grow
Day by day
But here we are, in separate homes
And there was nothin’ I could say
And as you walk, these neon streets
You hear a minstrel in the night
His song is true, he’s calling you
To do those things you know are right
Broken dreams they leave me, with tears in my eyes
Knowin’ I cannot pretend, we can never mend these
Broken ties, ties that use to bind
How could we be so blind?
To just let it fade away
So many young hearts pay for broken ties
And as this light of life, flashes by
So many changes I won’t see
And though I’m here in distant love
Won’t you please remember me
Broken hearts they leave me, with tears in my eyes
Knowin’ I cannot pretend, we can never mend these
Broken ties, ties that use to bind
How could we be so blind
To just let it fade away
So many young hearts pay for broken ties
Brokent Ties…

No Pain (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Marinated Music/Socan)
She puts her red dress on
She’s goin’ out tonight
Can’t stand another moment in this light
Starlight is on her skin
Moon is starin’ like an eye
And as the stranger moves she starts to cry
Woh I…I don’t wanna feel no pain no
Woh I…I don’t wanna feel no pain
I don’t wanna feel no pain…no, no more pain
He stares at the photographs
Time frozen in a frame
God he prays just take me home again
Prisoner to his world of fear
He’s captive to his room
And as he puts the needle to the spoon he cries…
Oh I…I don’t wanna feel no pain oh
Woh I…Oh I, I don’t wanna feel no pain
No, no don’t give me no more pain (no more pain)
I don’t wanna feel no pain no more, no, no, no more pain
Woh I, I, I , I (no more pain)
I don’t wanna feel no pain, I don’t wanna feel no pain
I don’t wanna feel no pain, I don’t wanna feel no pain,
I don’t wanna feel no more pain

Into The Emptiness (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
We were born with choices
That’s what I heard somebody say
But it’s not that easy to know
Just when you’ve lost your way
It isn’t ’til you get there
Sometimes that’s what it takes to see
The place you’ve gotten to
Is not the place you want to be
So I’m gonna try again
I know I’m gonna loose
If I’m ever gonna win
I’m gonna fall down, get back up again
Walk in the emptiness, make it my best friend
I’m gonna fall down, get back up again
Walk in the emptiness, make it my best friend
In this heart of passion
There burns an all consuming fire
Drivin’ by the hunger
Of my insatiable desire
But I can never fill
The appetite of mystery
The more that I embrace
This emptiness the more I’m free
I won’t let this fear
Hold me back no more as long as I am here
I’m gonna fall down, get back up again
Walk in the emptiness, make it my best friend
Fall down, get back up again
Walk in the emptiness, make it my best friend
Into the emptiness…

Guardian Angel (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
I, I, I get so lost sometime
Trapped in the maze I built in my mind
I pray you hear me in the still of the night
When I’m too scared to run and too tired to fight
I’m frozen in time, shackled by fear
So I’m calling on you through a veil of tears
Somewhere I lost sight of my guiding star
Come to me now, wherever you are
My guardian angel, wherever I roam
My guardian angel, carry me home
Heart full of pain, so empty of faith
My hands on the wheel but I’m going no place
Critically wounded in this battle for life
I need your love to heal me tonight
My guardian angel, wherever I roam
My guardian angel, carry me home
Lead me home
Oh the road seems so long sometimes
And everything seems wrong and here in my mind
I’m building mountains impossible to climb
My guardian angel, wherever I roam
My guardian angel, carry me home
Carry me home
My little guardian angel, carry me home oh yeah
Guardian angel, carry me home, oh yeah

I See You (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
Lookin’ like a silhouette, she’s walkin’ all alone
Past all the shops closed for the day
Can’t find no reason for goin’ home
Nobody seems to notice anyway
But before you think that I
Don’t see your hopes and all your dreams
Don’t you ever believe, that you’re invisible
‘Cause don’t you know
When I look into your eyes, oh baby I see you
Right through your disguises, baby, I see you
Remember baby, I see you
Don’t you know that, I see you
Yesterday I felt like a transparency
I could feel the wind blow through my soul
A big empty house, full of vacancy
Lord how I long to be whole
She said, before you think that I
Don’t see your pain and all your fears
Don’t you ever believe, that you’re invisible
’Cause don’t you know
When I look into your eyes, oh baby I see you
Right through your disguises, baby, I see you
Remember baby, I see you
Every little tear, I see you
When I look into your eyes, oh baby I see you
Right through your disguises baby, I see you
Remember baby, I see you
Every little tear, I see you
All your hopes and fears, I see you
Everything you do, I see you, I see you…

Time to Believe (Neil J. Harnett © 1996 Socan)
Don’t have to run
You don’t have to hide in the dark
Bright as the sun
Burnin’ deep inside of your heart
Burns the reason we live
So don’t hold back what you give
Just believe who you are
We made it this far, your heart is calling
Time to believe in the truth, (believe in yourself)
In your heart where it lives
Hear the calling of love
That we need to give
I can tell looking In your eyes
That you are in pain
All of the worries and all the lies
Have beat you down again
But don’t buy into the hate
You know it’s never too late
Be the love that you feel
The truth that is real
Jump for joy
Shake away the chains of fear
Don’t destroy another day
Listen and you will hear, your heart is calling
Time to believe in the truth, (believe in yourself)
In your heart where it lives
Hear the calling of love
That we need to give, hear the calling of your heart
Time to believe in the truth, (believe in yourself)
In your heart where it lives
Hear the calling of love, we need to give
Your heart is calling
Time to believe…
