Believe
Music & Lyrics by Desi
Why does the world have to keep on hating this way
Open up your hearts, you’re gonna blow this place apart
If you keep on fighting, keep on dying each day
Hate and the fear that rage inside you
Crimes of the time that face your life each day
Open up your hearts, that’s all you need to start
If we keep on trying maybe we’ll find a way
Chorus
Believe and it shall be
Believe, oh you can change this place
Oh believe in what can be
And everything will turn out right
The time is at hand, you know it’s comin’
Nowhere to run, soon the wars will appear
Open up your hearts, you’re gonna blow this place apart
If you keep on fighting, the world will soon disappear
Chorus
Believe and it shall be
Believe, oh you can change this place
Oh believe in what can be
And everything will turn out right

Chorus
Back to Eden
Music & Lyrics by Desi
Run away, run away from all the pain
You let it slowly slip away now its time for all to pay
Look around, life is so insane
It’s up to you, up to me
Can we save humanity
Is there no way out for me from this crazy world we live in?
Why’d it take so long to see, there must be a way?
Chorus
I’ll take you there, take you there
Back To Eden
Take you there, take you there
Back To Eden, to Eden
Wonder why you fell for all the lies
You tried to follow every trend now it’s brought you to an end
Is it fate or hate that blinds your eyes
Oh it can’t go on, can’t go on
Can we make it one more day
Is there no where left to go, or is prophecy upon us?
Yes we’re reaping what we sow, is there no other way?
Chorus
I’ll take you there, take you there
Back To Eden
Take you there, take you there
Back To Eden, to Eden
I Am Me
Music & Lyrics by Desi
In my life, pain & strife, deep inside my soul
My heart has grown so cold
Hardship takes its toll
I just turn away, try & pray, searching for a clue
I don’t know what to do
I’m shakin’ through & through
Chorus I
I am me, I gave it everything I could
Oh I am me, who else can I be
I am me, search endlessly
I am me
You made me try, wonder why, you put your faith in me
I want to let it be
And set my spirit free
I just call your name, its all in vain, I’m waiting for a sign
We’re running out of time
There’s war in Palenstine
Chorus II
I am me, I gave it everything I could
Oh I am me, who else can I be
I am me, search aimlessly
I am me
Oh, oh, turn away and close my eyes
Oh, oh, nothing left to do but cry
Chorus II
Chorus I
Refrain
I am me, I can be who I need to be
Count on me, it’s the way it’s meant to be
I am me, I am me
Oh, I searched so long to find a way
And it all comes back to me
Gonna Get Ya
Music & Lyrics by Desi
Verse 1
I’m gonna find ya, it won’t be long
To join the sinners, where you belong
We’re gonna find your vice and make it twice as nice
We’re gonna get ya
You tow the line, don’t waste your time
A little push and you’ll be mine
You’ll feel your heart grow cold as you lose your soul
(So) when you see me comin’
And you’re wonderin’ what to do
You better Run, run, run!
Chorus
I know your secrets, I know your weakness
We’re gonna get ya, one way or another
You try and hide it, we’re gonna find it
We’re gonna get ya, one way or another
One way or another…Ah!
Verse 2
Well is it pleasure or is it pain?
Is it the money, or is it fame?
You know the ego grows as the evil flows
We’re gonna get ya
Don’t feel so guilty, you’re next in line
It’s meant to be, you’ll wear the sign
You thought your life would be all you dreamed
But as you try to fight it
You know there’s nothing you can do
You better Run, run, run!
Chorus
I know your wishes, the naughty kisses
We’re gonna get ya, one way or another
all that desire, come touch the fire
We’re gonna get ya, one way or another
One way or another… Ah!
Bridge
The sum of all your fears
Your time is almost here
Say goodbye, it’s time to die (Die, Die!)
Chorus Repeat 2x with ad libs
With You
Music & Lyrics by Desi
Now that you’re gone, feel so alone
Next time around let’s be friends
Feels so wrong, a part of me is gone
If you can hear then let’s be friends
Remember when we hung at Molly’s place?
Remember how the Chinese man would pace?
Chorus
Will I ever see those eyes?
Will I ever see the smile upon your face?
Will I ever do the things I want to do?
With You
Time steals the pain in this crazy game
I wish we could have some time again
There’s no one to blame, it’s just a cryin’ shame
I wish we could have some time again
Remember when I came into your town?
Remember how all the plans we made would sound?
Chorus
Will I ever see those eyes?
Will I ever see the smile upon your face?
Will I ever do the things I want to do?
With You

Thing We Call Love
Music & Lyrics by Desi
Verse 1
Do you feel like I do?
Do you strive for some clue?
Are you looking at your life wondering what else to do?
Do you cry in your heart?
And get high till you’re fall apart
There’s no thought from any scholar or the mighty dollar
That’s ever stopped this longing inside
Chorus I
Time is tickin’ away
But we’ve gotta a little thing we call love
And we’re slippin’ away
But we’ve gotta a little thing we call love
(We got Love) You should see me now
(Love) You’ll never gonna see me down (Ah)
Verse 2
I know me, I know you (time keeps going on)
Close your eyes, who is who (time keeps going on)
Don’t go trying to be so heavy, all love comes so naturally
Life’s a mime of silent words
But this time it must be heard
There’s an artist’s easel waiting, help us in creating
A new world we’re all looking for
Chorus II
Time is tickin’ away
But we’ve gotta a little thing we call love
And we’re slippin’ away
But we’ve gotta a little thing we call love
(We got Love) You should see me now
(Love) You’ll never gonna see me down (Ah)
Bridge
(And Love calls)Yeah come and take me
(And Love calls) Yeah come and save me
(And Love calls) Ah throw my things away
Chorus Chorus
Help Me
Music & Lyrics by Desi © 2001
Take a look around everything is gone now
Memories seem to fade away,
Fade away
Never thought we could erase this place
And as far as I can see everyone’s last plea
Crying out is all you hear, the pain
It’s all so insane
And I don’t know what to say
Ah, ah
Chorus
(Help Me) God you have to help us find a way
(Help Me) God I’m on my knees to pray
Help us please don’t ever let us be (Help Me)
Oh help us please (Help Me), Oh help us please (Help Me)
It’s so hard to believe, I’m watching the world grieve
Many souls just fade away,
Fade away
Never thought it’d ever end and then
I looked up to the sky, horror filled my eyes
I watched the moon just turn to red, I cried
An anger raged inside
And I don’t know what to do
Ah, ah
Chorus
(Help Me) God you have to help us find a way
(Help Me) God I’m on my knees to pray
Help us please don’t ever let us be (Help Me)
Oh help us please (Help Me), Oh help us please (Help Me)
Oh help me!
Take a look around everything is gone now
Memories seem to fade away
Fade away, just fade away
Help us please, Oh help us please
Don’t ever let us be
Come Back Home
Music & Lyrics by Desi
Verse 1
Well I gave you life
And wrong from right
Did you use it well…look inside
There’s a life we share
In your thoughts and prayers
We were by your side…come back home
Please heed my call, I waited so long for you
And I dreamed of a day we would be one again
Chorus
Children of God, Come Back Home
Children of God, Come Back Home
Come Back, Come Back, Home (Come Back)
Verse 2
Did you see the signs
From the guides of time
Did you find your way…don’t close your eyes
Dancing lights that shine (Shine on me)
There’s no need for time (Shine of me)
There’s a place for you, come back home
Deep in your soul, you knew that I’d come for you
to show you a heaven and earth as one.
Chorus
Children of God, Come Back Home
Children of God, Come Back Home
Come Back, Come Back, Home (Come Back)
B Part of Verse 1
Please heed my call, I waited so long for you
And I dreamed of a day we would be one again
Chorus
Bridge
I want you to see
What you can be
If you just follow me back home
A blink of your eye
Reach for the sky
And you can touch the other side
Of life you feel but never get to see
I’ll show you how if you believe
Chorus
Children of God, Come Back Home
Children of God, Come Back Home
Come Back, Come Back, Home (Come Back)
End
Come Back Home!
We Call Our Own
Verse
I wish that you were here to wipe away the tears
And look me in the eyes to see the pain I hide
I can’t help wonderin’ why, you’re gone
We tried to do our best, we almost passed the test
Those times we can’t erase or the looks upon your face
I think we found a place for us
Chorus
We call our own
We should have known
that nothing lasts forever
Own……We call our own
I’m now alone
Wonderin’ what to do
Bridge
Through the years, and all those tears
You were there for me
Verse
Are you happy somewhere now, I hope you are somehow?
Strummin; your guitar, regardless where you are
I think I know the why, you’re gone
I try to understand, your footprints in the sand
Finding your own way there’s nothing left to say
I think we found a way for us
Chorus
Bridge
Times have changed, but we remain
Friends for life, for life
