No Absolutes 04:00
No absolute morality What's right for you is wrong for me No discipline to set us free And think about our actions Don't tell Johnny when he acts the brat In case he gets upset, you wouldn't hurt his feelings Don't smack Johnny when he misbehaves You wouldn't crush the rebel son And the truth can set you free from a lost, confused identity No real accountability They're all to blame except for me No absolute reality The truth is what you're feeling But the truth can set you free from a lost, confused identity No respect for authority Politically correct are we The wisdom of the centuries Rejected by the masses And the truth can set you free from a lost, confused identity
2.
There For Me 05:45
I can't deny the pain inside I've been down so many times I cannot count it And the hurt within can suffocate the self-esteem Without a prayer I know I could never take it I know I'd never take it And when the man has fallen and it all comes down You are there for me And when the man has fallen and it all comes down You are there for me, for me, for me I can't exist without your love The human heart was made to know and feel it And the light within can sometimes burn so dim But I know your resurrection will transform me Resurrection will transform me
3.
Free Gypsy 04:39
Unfettered gypsy heart, fly wild spirit Unchained creative force, free expression Regenerated thoughts, purer the vision Rekindled human soul, warm is the passion within This world is not my home, a traveller passes through No treasures tug these strings, my heart belongs to you Unbounded gypsy heart, nothing restraining Unbridled lips declare love's true anthem Inspired words of life, guiding the journey Reborn to breathe afresh, sweet the beginning anew This world is not my home, a traveller passes through No treasures tug these strings, my heart belongs to you

Time moves without moving breathing on this carousel Infant baby to a fading shell Can the mind of mortal man find reason to it all? Mystery of life speak to my soul Mystery of life speak to my soul Wars and desolation scar this pleasant land Man's perversion in a bloodied hand Father of creation, when will this destruction end> Mystery of life speak to my soul Mystery of life speak to my soul In a lifetime, in a threescore year and ten Is it possible to understand the wisdom of salvation's plan? Holy blood is seeping through a gaping wound Crimson lifeline to a people doomed How is there forgiveness in a murder on a tree? Mystery of life speak to my soul Mystery of life speak to my soul In a lifetime, in a threescore year and ten Is it possible to understand the wisdom of salvation's plan?
