New Video for "Walk On Water" - March 11, 2012

You can download the song here: Chancellorpink - Walk On Water (MP3)

Here are the lyrics:

WALK ON WATER

You're confined here
In this natural life
But in sleeping, dreams
Put you under the knife
Opened up to
Supernatural highs

Mum has her garden roses
Dad has his book and wine
But you're going to drown
If no one saves you in time

You could walk on water
By my side

Every sparrow
Has a tiger inside
I'm the lion
So hop on for a ride

We'll leap across the canyon
Climb to the top of night
I'll free the miracles
You're hiding inside

You could walk on water
By my side

All caution to the wind
We up and fly away
We won't fear tomorrow
Or live in yesterday

Tell mum her garden's lovely
Tell dad his wine is cool
But you have to see the world
That's waiting for you

Fridays your heart's on fire
Mondays you want to die
Throw out the calendar
And count on my eyes

You could walk on water
By my side

All our sons and daughters
Walking on the water

AT THE END OF MY BED
i dreamt
i dreamt that she came to me
and she sat on the end of my bed
and she told me
that i was good
and i believed her
i believed her

she didn't stay long
there was a smell
it reminded me
of when she didn't have to leave
i've never dreamt of her since then
i never dream at all anymore

New Video for "You Are Everyone" - February 27, 2012

Here are the lyrics:

YOU ARE EVERYONE
he picked on the family dog as a small boy
but he was an altar boy as he grew up
he was a good man when he made love
he was a bad man when he drank

his children loved him when they were far away
when they were close they never saw him
his wife loved him when she lived with him
when she left him, never thought of him

it's not you, it's just everyone
it's everyone, and it's not you
it's you, and you’re just everyone

she wanted a prince, but she got her a frog
keeps waiting on trains coming out of the fog
she's a good girl with the elderly
she's a bad girl with her lies

her dreams were happy when they were miles away
but when they came true, they were nightmares
and the names she kept up on the wall
were the ones who never helped her at all

it's not you, it's just everyone
it's everyone, but it's not you
it's you, and that's not everyone

it's just you, and like everyone
you're anyone and just like you
it's you, and you are everyone

New Video for "Knotted Shoelace" - February 26, 2012

"Knotted Shoelace" is one of my favorite songs from my 2008 release Valentine Parade. Now I have made a video for the song, which is also rather close to my heart.

Here are the lyrics for the song:

Knotted Shoelace
ran from the park cause i hate the bullies
they want to punch when i just want to please
and i’m here in this hallway, there’s blood on my face
you come and help me untie my knotted shoelace

teacher, would you teach me something today?
seems that my dreams all got lost on the way
the people i cherish find me a disgrace
i’ve made every bow in my life a knotted shoelace

stuck in this traffic jam a million cars long
over the drone of the radio song
i hear you calling me home
“come inside, it’s supper time”

brother please
say something to me
that is real, that i feel
who’s gonna put the smile back on my face?
yeah, who’s gonna get me back into the race?
who’s gonna untie my knotted shoelace?

Here are the lyrics for the song:

PAUL'S SONG
time to stand
time to take a stand
i will be a man
and no one will tell me otherwise

beer in hand
everyone deserves a beer
once in awhile, dear
have no fear, have no fear, have no fear
with me here

there was a time
when i believed in love
she's on my mind again
god help me

patience is the name of the game
everyone is playing games
everyone
lie low, lie low
she'll come around, i know

and every word he writes in private
cause they don't understand him
and he will never show them all
of the jaded paul

that chorus brought me down
why'd you have to bring me down, boy?
now i'm thinking of her again

there was a time
when she sat by the window
looking at her hands
god help me

and every word he writes in private
cause they don't understand him
and he will never show them all
of the jaded paul

and if you think you have him cornered
if you think you know this paul
(never show them all)
he will climb up over the wall
he will climb up over the wall

they run, they run
he walks
(i love you paul)

LEAVING
little boy naps with the t.v. on
when he wakes up, his momma's gone
"sorry sweet child, just got some milk. i'll never do that again.
now turn around and count to ten."

ready or not
she left me
hey momma, guess what?
you left me

standing at the zoo, her hands on her hips
so i sneak up from behind and give her a kiss
hours of flowers and oceans of wine
took about a minute to leave it all behind

close my eyes
count to 30
nothing in the dark
can hurt me
no one here alone can
desert me

ready or not
we're leaving
no matter what you got
you're leaving

ready or not
he's coming
ready or not
we're leaving

ready or not
he's coming
ready or not
we're leaving

New Song - "A Rainbow's Knocking" - February 2, 2012

I wrote a new song called "A Rainbow's Knocking".

Here is the YouTube video for the song: VIDEO

You can download an MP3 of the song here:
Chancellorpink - "A Rainbow's Knocking"

Here are the lyrics:

A Rainbow’s Knocking
A careful lesson
Is what you’re learning
Second guessing
Letting go

Life is full of burdens
That we’ll never understand
But you’re my baby, I’m your man
And lately I just want to dance around the world with you

Children waving
Daddy crying
Mother saving
To feed the poor

A sunburst walking
To his mountain
A rainbow’s knocking
A cellar door

Life is full of burdens
That we’ll never understand
But you’re my baby, I’m your man
And lately I just want to dance around the world with you

Love is on the warpath
Shouted on a wave
Shame can keep its head down
Because we’re walking proud today

Life is full of blessings
That we’ll never comprehend
No more second guessing
We’re getting closer to the end

And lately I just want to dance around the world with you
Lately I just want to dance around the world with you
