World’s Apart
Music & Lyrics By John Zay
It’s friday afternoon and the sun is on its way down
The wind knocks on your front door but there’s no one around
You’re caught up in a moment whose time has come and gone
You walk outside and fall into the comfort of your car
The road leads you into the past, a dream so very far
Your looking for a moment whose time has come and gone
In this world of illusion it’s so hard to see
a world that seems to take away, what you believe
Breathe alone and find your way – your world's apart
Know that help is here today - your world's apart
your world's apart….
Sifting through the pictures from a lifetime ago
Talking to each other about a place we called home
Reaching for a moment whose time has come and gone
In this world of illusion it’s so hard to see
a world that seems to take away, what you believe
Breathe alone and find your way - your world's apart
Know that help is here today - your world's apart
Fading memories
So hard to get your life on track
Wander Off into the sun
I know there's a part of you that wants to come back
Breathe alone and find your way - your world's apart
Know that help is here today - your world's apart
your world's apart......yea - your world's apart

Shadows
-Lyrics & Music by John Zay
I see the pain
in all the world
it burns my heart inside
Children hurt
lives destroyed
I can't make sense of why
As healing means
within in our reach
are hidden from us all the time
--
Frozen - with all your dreams
a shadow falls on the soul
Taken - away from your home
and left out in the cold
--
As one gets hurt
another knows
we've stepped into a new game
But all this means
is transparency
will give our shadows their say
–
Frozen - with all your dreams
a shadow falls on the soul
Taken - away from your home
and left out in the cold
--
When will this end...
as sickness breathes and fear runs high
There's no one left to offend...
A battles yet to come
What have we done?
--
Frozen - with all your dreams
a shadow falls on the soul
Taken - away from your home
and left out in the cold
Breaking - from all your ties
you're running out of breath
A measured move - complete with the news
you've had enough of all this senseless death..
A shadow falls on the soul...

Lyrics & Music by John Zay
Fell into the longest dream I looked around and found the queen
she was there, waiting for me all along
Taken on a journey through both time and space nothing's a waste
in the dark I felt a love so strong
Welcome to your mind's eye feel free to look inside
Welcome to your mind's eye it's time to take a ride
I don't want to lose control when I feel like I'm falling apart
Letting go becomes so hard when you don't know where to start
You had chosen to go first you broke the ice it wasn't always nice
the path was there by your design
So welcome to your mind's eye feel free to look inside
Welcome to your mind's eye you can see the pain go by
I don't want to lose control when I feel like I'm falling apart
Letting go becomes so hard when you don't know where to start
This is our journey we fall into each others
arms and we give ourselves freely to love...to love....to love

Lyrics by John Zay
Music by John Zay with Angelo Moore & Jack Stein
Sitting on top of water with a smile
From point to peak I think it must be a mile
Losing reality
Caught up in mystery
A sense of wonder
has taken over me
Leading myself into a world with no end
From dusk ‘til dawn the sand becomes my friend
You move my body
And we become so alive
I look at you
I feel the will to survive
Long Enough
This is not the time to hesitate
Wanderlust
She is my seductress I can’t wait
There are no words to explain who I am
I am that I am - am I that I am
We are who we are
Are we who we are?
It takes a minute
To realize that we’re all from the stars
Long Enough
This is not the time to hesitate
Wanderlust
She is my seductress I can’t wait
woh oh oh woh oh
-head down to the water
-yea, to the healing waters
-yea, to the mother ocean
