Waiting
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 1996
As you look into my eyes
It will come as no surprise
That the little things you hide
Are Waiting
Some are subtle, some are loud
Some are cautious, some are proud
But they all do the things
That you like
Oh -
I'm waiting
Waiting for you
It can be cruel, it can be mean
When you terminate the dream
And you wake up to find
It's ended
You'll feel dirty, you'll be cold
You'll be cheap, bought and sold
When your lies are all exposed
You're bleeding
Oh -
And I'll be waiting
Waiting for you
When you look into my eyes
It will come as no surprise
Of the love you feel inside
And I'll be waiting
Oh -
And I'll be waiting
Waiting for you

Drawn
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 1998
Drawn by the flame
Your lust is to blame
The fire in your heart has begun
Do you know who you are
Do you know just how far
You will go for the ache in your heart
It will sour in the heat
I can sense the defeat
And it tears you apart
The scent is so strong
The ladder is so long
It road will lead you on and on
You caress the danger
You indulge in the behaviour
You will fall in the anger
And it tears you apart
You're drawn to the cage
It's a trap set in vain
And we're drawn like moths to a flame

Ivory Towers
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 1996
So I tried to make on my own
Some grand illusion far from home
I met an angel on the edge of reality
So I made my pact with a smile
So they shimmer and shine, they wine and dine
They talk the talk that made you mine
The truth gets lost in all the dialogue
The talent gets ripped in two
And no mortals come here
They save it for the chosen few
Much higher than a pedestal
Much wider than a church pew
And it's a sacred feast
On the minds wide eye
I've travelled this foreign land
I've seen the candle light die
And what do they do
In their ivory towers
While we slave at work
For hours and hours
The natural justice
Prevails in the end
Even the weak now
We'll run to defend

Men Of Hope
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 1988
After the last shell is shot
After you've given it all you've got
After the last screams of pain
You pray it never happens again
After you have no more shame
After screaming through the driving rain
After holding the SLR in your hand
Sometimes you need than just a friend
Hope, hope, men of hope
Wonder why they could not cope
Dream , dream , is it a dream
Oh no it's reality
After the dust clouds have gone
After you've lost your wife and home
After taking the life of another man
Will you ever be the same again
Why , why, why do they cry
When they get cold sweats in the night
They just did what they thought was right
But they never did win the fight
Within themselves
Oh within themselves
After the last shell is shot
After you've given it all that you've got
After the last scream of pain
You pray it never happens again

One More
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 1996
One more life to give
One more life to give
I try to give you up
I never have enough
One more chance to take
One more chance to take
And every time it's the same
One more life to give
More, more
More life in the cycle of pain
More, more
More time to devote to me
One more wound to heal
One more wound to heal
I try to stop the biting
But it's a constant itching
One more goal to reach
One more goal to reach
Is it a waste of time?
I'll never cross that line
I want more, I want more
More life in the cycle of pain
I want more, I want more
More time to devote to me
I want more, I want more
More death, more pain and misery
I want more, I want more
More of everything

Nothing to Fear
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 2005
Take a little piece of time
Hold it up to the light
You can see our lives
You can see what is right
Take a little piece of me
Take a little piece of you
We're all family
There's nothing we can't get through
It's the strength that unites us
The passion inside us
You know we got nothing to fear
For all we hold onto
And all we belong to
You know we got nothing to fear
We've got nothing to fear
Take a look at ourselves
Take a look at our past
You will see our future there
You know it can't last
Take a little piece of time
Take a little look at your life
It's all there for you
Your future can shine
So hold on to your dreams
So hold on to your dreams
As Dylan said the times a changing
And you need to take a little time
There's nothing wrong with expectations
We got nothing to fear this time

Wait Another Day
Words & Music - Wagner Copyright © 2005
There ain't no time for tomorrow
And today's already gone
We need now to know some answers
Before we see another dawn
Give me time to get away from here
Far away to let it go
Just got to let it go
I can't wait another day
I have waited all this time
I don't care about excuses any more
I can't wait another day
I have waited all my life
The time is right to leave and close the door
I got no time for this town
And life here is getting to be a drag
I want taste the high life
I need to feel alive again
Give me time to get away from here
Far away - let them know
Just got to let it go
I can't wait another day
I have waited all this time
I don't care about the reasons any more
I can't wait another day
I have waited all my life
The time is right to make the change for more

The Art Of Illusion
Words & Music - Wagner. Copyright © 1997
The sacred dance of love
The pleasures of the flesh
The tenderness of touch
You know it's never enough
Illusion
Confusion
Awake from this
Then from it's inception
Then comes the conception
In time of reflection
Realise your illusion
Illusion
Confusion
Awake from this
Look in your soul and see
You'll find truth in me
And from your inquiry
You will have misery
It is no mystery
It's the age of Kali
Awake! Awake! Awake from this my love
Awake to the truth

Embrace
Words by Wagner - Music by Wagner/Beech/Carruthers/Burns Copyright © 2005
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
The lights go out in the city tonight
There nothing left but the cool moonlight
I can hear your voice calling to me
And in your voice are words of need
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
Don't let go, I can relate
We'll give it all for love in the embrace
Don't turn away, 'cause it's too late
Together we can heal the pain
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
Passed you by without any regret
You with child to fend for yourself
I can hear your voice calling to me
Beautiful voice - words of need
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
Nothing matters, there is no fear
No one else to judge or see or hear
There's just you and me counting heartbeats
And time stands still in our eyes
Don't let go, I can relate
We'll give it all for love in the embrace
Don't turn away, 'cause it's too late
Together we can heal the pain
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you
When your world has abandoned you but I will embrace you

Because I Love You
Words & Music - Ford/Keays
It's because I love you
Not because we're far apart
It's because I love you
And because you're near my heart
It' because I miss you
Oh how long it seems to be
It's because I miss you
Thoughts of you come back to me
Once we walked together
From the field up to the hill
Promised love forever
I remember that day still
It's because I love you
I'll come home to you one day
It's because I love you
In my thoughts you'll always stay
