01 Countdown Forever

[Verse]
One two three four
Time keeps flying out the door
Tick tock round the clock
Chasing moments none will lock

[Verse 2]
Five six seven eight
Never early never late
Every second slips away
Night turns into day

[Chorus]
Countdown forever we'll stay
Numbers falling like rain
Endless in our pain
Countdown never ends again

[Verse 3]
Nine ten start again
Running circles with no end
Lost in this eternal race
Time we can't erase

[Bridge]
Voices echo counting still
Hourglass will never fill
Stuck in this repeating thrill
Time's a loop we can't distill

[Chorus]
Countdown forever we'll stay
Numbers falling like rain
Endless in our pain
Countdown never ends again

02 Weather Contradictions

[Verse]
Cold in the summer freeze all over
Sun shining bright chillin' like December
Flipped upside down can you remember
Weather gone wild in its own adventure

[Verse 2]
Hot in the winter burn through the ice
Sweating in snow just can't suffice
Feels so wrong but kinda nice
Mother Nature's game rolls the dice

[Chorus]
Cold summers hot winters
Bright nights dark days
Can't understand this
Nature's secret maze

[Bridge]
River runs dry when rain comes down
Dazzling moon makes the night's gown
Daytime shadows covering the town
Confusing weather spinning around

[Verse 3]
Longing for seasons that make some sense
Lost in this twist of consequence
Chasing the sun through the winters fence
And dreaming of snow in summer tents

[Chorus]
Cold summers hot winters
Bright nights dark days
Can't understand this
Nature's secret maze

03 The Endless Word

[Verse]
A word so long it never ends
Through space and time it twists and bends
Letters stretching far and wide
Infinite word on this wild ride

[Verse 2]
From A to Z and back again
A tale that spins without an end
No commas here just flowing streams
Endless word of endless dreams

[Chorus]
Oh this word it goes and goes
Through the highs and all the lows
No punctuation just pure flow
The endless word that never slows

[Verse 3]
Each sound a note in timeless song
Historically it moves along
No pause or break just seamless flow
Infinitely long word we know

[Bridge]
In books and whispers tales are told
Of the endless word that's pure and bold
It never stops no need to breathe
Infinity in every weave

[Chorus]
Oh this word it goes and goes
Through the highs and all the lows
No punctuation just pure flow
The endless word that never slows

04 Shortest Tale

[Verse]
A lonely star it gleams
In the void no one dreams
Silent whispers they fade
In the dark where light's made

[Verse 2]
Cosmic waves quietly
Echoing endlessly
A tale so small so near
In the space with no fear

[Chorus]
Shortest story ever told
In the vastness dark and cold
Just a flicker just a spark
In the universe so stark

[Verse 3]
Minutes pass no words exchanged
Galaxies in quiet range
Simple story swiftly told
In the night a glimpse of gold

[Verse 4]
Time collapses into dust
Moments lost like distant trust
In the quiet tales remain
In the stars a lasting flame

[Bridge]
Breathe it in the silent air
Feel the echo everywhere
Shortest story universe
Written in a single verse

05 Echoes In The Crowd

[Verse]
They talk they talk and repeat
Same words same beat
What’s new what’s found
Just echoes in the crowd

[Verse 2]
Mirror mirror on the wall
Copycat hear it all
Voices going round
Just echoes in the crowd

[Chorus]
Say it once say it twice
Echoes bounce like dice
Never ending sound
Just echoes in the crowd

[Verse 3]
Whisper shout don’t you see
Parrot words follow me
Lost not found
Just echoes in the crowd

[Bridge]
Broken records spinning fast
Living life in the past
Voices that rebound
Just echoes in the crowd

[Chorus]
Say it once say it twice
Echoes bounce like dice
Never ending sound
Just echoes in the crowd

06 Cosmic Chaos

[Verse]
Stars collide oh so bright
In the vastness of the night
Galaxies in swirling dance
Taking this cosmic chance

[Verse 2]
Nebulas they start to glow
In the dark the colors flow
Waves of light they intertwine
In this space we'll find our sign

[Chorus]
Cosmic chaos in the sky
Eruptive harmony up high
Universe we feel your might
In the ever-lasting night

[Bridge]
Planets spin in rhythmic flow
Space and time begin to slow
Feel the pulse of endless skies
Where the cosmic magic lies

[Verse 3]
Meteors blaze through the air
Burning bright without a care
In the vast expanse so wide
In this chaos we confide

[Chorus]
Cosmic chaos in the sky
Eruptive harmony up high
Universe we feel your might
In the ever-lasting night

07 Backwards Roads

[Verse]
Going back is moving forward
Lost in time can't break the border
Progress feels like strange confusion
Regression dreams a grand illusion

[Verse 2]
Old ways shine like golden hours
New lights dim replace our flowers
Turning back to what once mattered
Future's dust all hopes are shattered

[Chorus]
Backwards roads we'll proudly follow
Steps reversed in past we'll wallow
Change rejected paths delighted
In the past we stay united

[Verse 3]
Echoes of a bygone glory
Rewrite history new old story
Innovation deemed a warning
Nostalgia wakes in every morning

[Bridge]
Clinging tight to known embraces
Fear of what the new world faces
Blindly walking past procession
Calling backward steps progression

[Chorus]
Backwards roads we'll proudly follow
Steps reversed in past we’ll wallow
Change rejected paths delighted
In the past we stay united

08 A World Without War

[Verse]
In days of old we dreamt of peace
A world with love as our release
No chains no clash just unity
Every soul would wander free

[Verse 2]
No fields of war no cries of pain
Just children dancing in the rain
From dawn to dusk we’d build and grow
The seeds of hope in every glow

[Chorus]
Imagine skies with endless light
A future brimming clear and bright
Hand in hand we’d pave the way
In a world where love would always stay

[Verse 3]
No walls no borders hearts unbound
Harmony in every sound
With every voice a song would rise
A symphony of star-filled skies

[Verse 4]
Crafting dreams with hands untied
With justice flowing far and wide
No hierarchy to divide
Just kindness as our only guide

[Chorus]
Imagine skies with endless light
A future brimming clear and bright
Hand in hand we’d pave the way
In a world where love would always stay

09 Barking Mad

[Verse]
Barking at the moon
Not a dog this time
People howl in tune
Midnight city rhyme

[Verse 2]
Dogs have something to say
Talking like it's cool
Gossip all the way
Breaking all the rules

[Chorus]
Woof woof talking loud
People barking proud
Life is upside down
In this crazy town

[Verse 3]
People on all fours
Chasing after bones
Dogs at coffee stores
Chatting on their phones

[Verse 4]
Tables turned around
Laughter in the air
Human voices found
In pups everywhere

[Chorus]
Woof woof talking loud
People barking proud
Life is upside down
In this crazy town

[Chorus]
Woof woof talking loud
People barking proud
Life is upside down
In this crazy town

10 Infinite Goodbye

[Verse]
Standing on the edge again
Waves crash but they never end
Your face fades behind the mist
Infinite goodbye sealed with a kiss

[Verse 2]
Stars above in a silent sky
I feel tears but I don't know why
Whispers carried on the breeze
Saying goodbye yet never at ease

[Chorus]
Infinite goodbye our endless plight
Chasing shadows in the night
Hold my hand don't let go
Infinite goodbye as we flow

[Verse 3]
Footsteps echo on a lonely road
Memories heavy with the load
Every turn brings a new start
Infinite goodbye tearing us apart

[Bridge]
One more word one last glance
Caught in this eternal dance
Your voice lost in a sea of sound
Infinite goodbye always found

[Chorus]
Infinite goodbye our endless plight
Chasing shadows in the night
Hold my hand don't let go
Infinite goodbye as we flow
