THIS MACHINE 03:57
Lyrics: Song Written by CHRIS SAGAN © (Birth Name: Graham Parker) Written: March 2012 This Machine Makes the Enemy© Verse 1 I got one foot on hill and the other on fire And I don’t know which way I’m supposed to go Walked the same steps as many before But it feels like there’s something wrong I know the higher I’ll get the further I’ll fall But I don’t know how to start again “Why am I here?” and “Where am I from?” Are these questions the means to my end? 8 Bars Instrumental Verse 2 I try remain hidden from deep dark night I fear that there’s something I’ve said Always seems to catch me where ever I go I fear that it wants me dead. I know the sunshine will keep me away From the demons I hold within But when the night falls and the sirens call I will eat’th of the fruit of sin Chorus Just let me know Let me know the fires will go out Just let me hear Let me hear you say revolution out loud Just let me know Let me know the fires will go out Just let me hear Let me hear you say revolution out loud Verse 3 I’m fully automatic and I wont regret it When the big man shoots you down This machine kills but the enemy steals Everything but the sound “Well, Fuck you and your politicians too I heard you are all the same” Then I hear Siren call, “Make my Enemy fall” But I did not catch your name Chorus Just let me know Let me know the fires will go out Just let me hear Let me hear you say revolution out loud Just let me know Let me know the fires will go out Just let me hear Let me hear you say revolution out loud Just let me hear you say Revolution Out Loud Just let me hear you say Revolution Out Loud Just let me hear you say Revolution Out Loud Just let me hear you say Revolution Out Loud Ooh

When you look outside No one turns to see The man looking out The kinda life he leads But don't you want to know What life could have been Oh what a life it could be, If I wasn't me Yeah she works the canteen She believed in god She has three dumb kids and yeah they drink a lot Oh the life she leads, No it isn't much, But she has this dream To meet the man she loves And he lives in the city And he has a good job Never works those late's Never comes home drunk And when the kids move out They would try to see If they can buy the big house They'd be, finally, free Oh, They'd be, finally, free If I wasn't me would you let me show, the life I want to lead not the life I know Cause I want to live, I don't want to die, I want to love my days and make love at night If I wasn't me, would you let me show, the life I want to lead Not the life I know If I wasn't me would you let me show, the life I want to lead not the life I know Cause I want to live, I don't want to die, I want to love my days and make love at night If I wasn't me, would you let me show, the life I want to lead Not the life I know Cause I want to live, I don't want to die, I want to love my days and make love at night Cause I want to live, I don't want to die, I want to love my days and make love at night If I wasn't me, would you let me show, the life I want to lead Not the life I know Woohoo

Song Written by CHRIS SAGAN © (Birth Name: Graham Parker) Written: April 2012© God in Your Own Hands © LYRICS: Intro: [Start Strum Section 1] Heaven knows we’re on fire again They dip their head in the river and say “I can’t breathe cause there is no way” It’s sad to see they’re in the wrong again …So you say Father knew I’d find my feet again Said it from the very start to end Don’t remember feeling this far away I try to live by the feeling you get [Start Strumming Section2] Let him know what the siren sold We’re heading for a very darkened soul There’s fire at your feet L.A Their climbing walls of their fears and lows [Back to Strum Section 1] Let him know we’re on fire again – are we Depending on the heathens? Atteroll and Vicodin Dreary eyed and bathed in - sin Oh the serpent calls … Inside you all [Start Strum Section 3] May you all on fire atone Bury you all in the seeds you’ve sewn I’ll Have you lying on the fire and say “Save my soul cause I see I’m not right again” <Hold on again> And The fire engulfs, light fire and see, what have we done? Have we set them free? Ooooh [Start Strum Section 4] Crowd gathers outside their home With Rope and timber to save their soul Their sin is in their difference To be released by man’s scaffold Crowds gathered outside again Burning crosses to save their souls Their colour skin’s too different So they hung the black man by gods scaffold

Song Written by CHRIS SAGAN © (Birth Name: Graham Parker) Written: April 2013© Hero You miss your mother Cause you followed your father Travelling the wasteland With one another All the fire and brimstone Tried to discover How to defeat him But he was a warrior They couldn’t break the heart of The hero came from hard work Never had no money But his brow never furrowed But they struck to the heart of The heart of my hero Who struck back with the sword of The sword of the common man The battle was over They fell into the wasteland My Father was the victor And now he is the teacher Of how to move on…

Lyrics: Song Written by CHRIS SAGAN © (Birth Name: Graham Parker) Written: October 2011 Stone Cold Man© Verse 1 How fickle the human mind We don’t see any sign When hath no reality his actions cross the line The Voices in head demand the ultimate debt To be paid in full by the metal emissary of debt Bridge The chiming of the bell took him to the church he knew too well But it only took a second to go back to hell Chorus When they found a Stone Man, on the train Yeah they found a Cold Man, on the train Verse 2 Arrest your fears young squire for they’ve come to consume Don’t keep them alive in a feeble hope to resume The devil will take you by the hand to push the blade Into the heart of the ‘Simple Man’ who lives by the day Bridge The chiming of the bell took him to the church he knew too well But it only took a second to go back to hell Chorus When they found a Stone Man, on the train Yeah they found a Cold Man, on the train [Instrumental Build-up) Outro Verse (Part 1) - <Calm strumming> Don’t you look at me you crazy motherfucker And don’t you hold me in contempt Cause You made Me the Serial Redeemer So confess your sins and repent Don’t you look at me you crazy motherfucker And don’t you hold me in contempt Cause You made Me the Serial Redeemer So confess your sins and repent [Instrumental Build-up) Outro Verse (Part 2) <Quick, Heavy strumming> Don’t you look at me you crazy motherfucker And don’t you hold me in contempt Cause You made Me the Serial Redeemer So confess your sins and repent Don’t you look at me you crazy motherfucker And don’t you hold me in contempt Cause You told me it was a sign of a believer So confess your sins and repent Just remain still
