Lyrics by Ollie:
Can’t forget the summers day, in its golden rain
All those thoughts I could not say have come back again
Can’t help thinking how things have changed since you went away
All alone, drugs and despair, I try to start again
But whats the point if your heart is all gone
And your smiles are rare
I don’t seem to talk any more
To those people out there.
And my worlds not gone
And my tears go on
In the end I should have known
That an angel has always flown
And my worlds not gone
And my tears go on
In the end I should have known
That a freebird will be her own

Lyrics by Ollie:
Sometimes I feel like I’m drifting away
Just let me sink deep into an ocean
I’ll think it over
I wasn’t born, I feel I was spawned from the water
Ocean, here comes the ocean
The ocean comes to wash my life away
Realms of bliss, realms of light
Let my body break up in the ocean of life
Won’t go to heaven, won’t even die
Let my body break up in the water of life
Ocean, here comes the ocean
The ocean comes to wash my life away
Ocean, here comes the ocean
Let the ocean spill into my veins
Guess I won’t walk on water
Thats the way of the waves

Why Should It Be A Sin

Lyrics by Ollie:
Do you see that girl, she moves around the world
The sigh is not the sound as she drags herself into town
Somewhere way outside, the second hand that shines
She don’t feel the rain, she watches through the pain
Why, why should it be a sin
Every day and every night mixing up heroin
Why, why should it be a sin, every day
No surprises and no words, the wheel is killing her
Behind those eyes a shadow lies, and no ones really heard
Listen to the rain as it washes away the pain
Where is the Sun for one so young, that cannot burn again

Lyrics by Ollie :
Damm the void and damm the dead
What use is light inside your head
Peace of mind is a waste of time
Low flashpoint
Lotus land pulling my hand
Smiling Buddha smiles at me
Detached from all humanity
The more he enters dream like stare
The sweetest thing of despair
Lotus land pulling my hand
Low flashpoint
Smiling Buddha smiles at me
Detached from all humanity
May I say how much it hurts
And may I say its getting worse
Looking at the world through the medium of a looking glass
Low flashpoint your’e pulling my hand
Right now every step I seize, warnings of all smiles like these
May I say how much it hurts
And may I say its getting worse
Lotus land pulling my hand
Low flashpoint
No one knows why
The decision is in our hands
Losing your identity, set loose on a turbulent sea
A turbulence to see, visually on a turbulent sea
Low flashpoint
Strange, I still want to keep on waiting
Strange to to see how it is changed
I still need to see it change
Strange to say I’m feeling strange
Low flashpoint
In the force I will find my affairs underneath the stones
I never thought it would be just this once
And I’‘m blessed to come home
Dnah ym gnillup…
Get low dead at sea, you find an island and you can really see

Lyrics by Ollie:
Angie`s sleeping, watch child wake
Dreams are dreaming, air raid shakes
It`s blackend insides, somethings cold
Someones taken dragonsgold
Sunrise warning, ancient way
Angie`s walking, shes awake
Eyes are shining, do they know?
Who has taken dragonsgold
Sunshine sparkle, flicker shifts
Clouds of marble slowley drift
England reborn timeless and bold
Hills are still warm, though they are old
Angie has taken dragonsgold
I don't know what its really like
I don't know, do you feel do you care?
Walk on, dragonsgold

Lyrics By Ollie
Love takes forever in the fading summertime
A boy freeze in terror as a girl fills his life
Pictures of his childhood freeze as she holds them in her hands
Movies and memories of a forgotten barren land
I ask where has the sun gone as the shadows tumble down
She smiled and whispered softly, it’s gone to cuddle with the clouds
I kissed the molten flower, until later in the night
And could not see the stars till the camera of the light
Summers’ still be fine but the churches couldn’t breathe
Old men will still die and still the birds will sing
Children keep on playing as the shadows tumble down
Their innocent when we swing them, till the light has to die
Do it once again, once I was in love.
Last forever
Enough is enough

lifelong interest in music.
After the invention of computers he progressed into digital music and when the technology eventually caught up with what he wanted it to do, he then proceeded to re-master all of his previous efforts into the unique compositions you can hear today.
