Craters 03:27
lyrics
Every day I try to compensate for my many less than perfect traits But all the stress of fancy dress makes it hard to concentrate on my reflection in your eyes which makes me realize it’s you I see mixed up with me that makes me terrified chorus: You left craters in my brain somehow I went running felt the rain come down And I will walk with you and talk until the cure is found Until the angels touch the ground Every day I’ve got the same disease from too many years of parking fees I’m trapped by chance and circumstance until I learn to please the machine I call my mind and my body redefined I’ll clear the haze of death’s decay And leave that all behind Bridge: A walk out in the cold is just unfair But you would look so pretty with snowflakes in your hair And the cure might be much worse for me Than putting up with my disease

Always The Fool 03:43
lyrics
I know that you’ll love him Cause I see you standing there Looking so pretty, with flowers in your hair I know it’s over, but I love you as we part So I will sing, from my broken heart. I see you moving oh so close to him Your gazes are touching And the magic will begin I wish I could leave now, but I’m stuck inside my skin And this is the way, the way it will end They say that time it will heal, all of my wounds Everything happens for a reason But I just stand still, letting you go How can I commit this treason I feel, I know, I’ve got a heart of gold I do, I swear, but that won’t get me anywhere I’m falling to pieces around myself, feeling alone though I’m with someone else It’s calling me home, it’s saying go!!! But I just keep hanging around this place, Hoping that one day I’ll change my face The very party of me, that won’t go!!!! That won’t go Always the fool, Always the fool The last one in the room to lose I play the fool, always the fool Only I won’t obey the rules I’m getting out, the cycle ends I won’t be just one of your friends I moving out, I’m Moving on My life is worth more than you now

Anti-Hero 03:33
lyrics
Are you the man with the thistle down hair And will you laugh and dance on my grave when I’m not here Is the ring on my hand the key to this land Is the king in the red, gonna kill us all in our beds Will the ghostwheel walk through the maze Uncovering things that should probably remain Will the game Ender plays, end all of our days In Melkor’s song is the melody wrong And everybody’s lying down And everybody’s lying down And she is sleeping around And he is sleeping around Everybody’s lying now They all keep lying down But I won’t lay down No, I won’t lay down I’ll keep singing till they all come around I won’t lay down I won’t lay down

Joshua 04:37
lyrics
Joshua, and his little girl They're the only two in their whole world And Will growing up, tear them both apart? Will she have to break his heart? Joshua is coming of age And No one here understands his rage And they wonder what he wants I think that maybe she does too I hope that he gets what he wants He's losing his hold He's losing control His world keeps on turning out of control His little girls twisting out of his hold And they speculate on his life And whether he's living it right I say Joshua, why should you care? Get yourself out of this place Somewhere where you won't see her face or remember the taste of her skin Joshua, it's over Joshua, start over

SnowDay 04:49
lyrics
Verse 1 Feels like I’ve lost control of this Feel like momentum is carrying me down I’ve lost my edge Things happen so fast that it’s like There’s nothing happening at all I’m Frozen out I’m Frozen out (Chorus) On a Snowday, a Snowday The darkest time of the year On a SnowDay a throw it all away day The cold is calling I once was flying but now I’m falling like the snow in frigid air I’m falling Verse 2 The things that once made me happy They turn to ash in my mouth Can I feel anything at all Even the things that made me angry They don’t move the dial a tick I’m stuck in this malaise I’m stuck in this malaise (Chorus) On a Snowday, a Snowday The Darkest time of the year On a Snowday, a throw it all away day The cold is calling I once was flying, but now I’m falling Like the snow in frigid air I’m falling (Outro) Hold on trust your mind that once took joy in living You’ll smell the flowers in the spring Keep on breathing after winters death is over You’ve got miles to go before you sleep Hold on trust your mind that once took joy in living You’ll smell the flowers in the spring Keep on breathing after winters death is over You’ve got miles to go before you sleep

Rain Cloud Romance 04:37
lyrics
The words won't come out to play They're scared of what I'm gonna say They wage a war they lost before they ever hit my vocal chords I'm missing her I'm mister raincloud I'm missing out on sleep And she is my miss(ed) sunshine But she'll come back to me We're in the Middle Ages The part that never makes front pages * Helpless hopeless faithless weakness Conquered by the golden fearless She's chasing me I'm mr raincloud She's chasing out my sleep And I'll see her miss(ed) sunshine When she catches up to me I dropped my rain I'm mister blue skies I shed my shame and my blues I live with my miss sunshine A life I'll never lose

Lullaby #7 02:27
lyrics
It’s perfectly imperfect tonight What a strange set of situations collide If I am wrong, I don’t want to be right And If this is wrong, I’m going to give up the fight for what’s right Casue I’ve never felt so alive as I do this time And If I were to tell you the words they would not be a lie tonight Tonight Time took a trip now he’s back I’m leaving to soon, I’ve already pushed my luck They tell us it’s wrong, and maybe they’re right But if it’s so Strong, how can I deny That this moment I feel that I’m able to see The only person who has ever been right for me, tonight Tonight, Tonight, Tonight

Electric 03:14
lyrics
We are electric This moment is epic We'll never forget it Until we explode if we explode The signal's detected The text is selected The outcome expected And now the magic flows I think it's time you reflected The most powerful sword (is in my keyboard) We find ourselves all connected By this isolation what's holdin us down (I’m tangled in cords) We are, we're electric electric Addicted to electric, electric My life's a nonstop soundtrack I've got a million views I've got the power to do what I choose I'm a live wire I surge with desire I live to inspire The ones awake, awake at night 2 letters in my words To send a man skyward A beacon to fly toward If you see the lights (can you see the lights?) We've all been struck with lightning The current that flows, (is in my windows) We all are interconnected In this desperation The web that glows, (the web I wove) I am, I'm electric electric Empowered by electric,electric

One Step 03:28
lyrics
There are some things I’d like to say apologies I’d like to make I’ll sing them in the night Prison gives you time to think and to fashion your new wings Just don’t burn in the skies Chorus: It just takes one step to start One step towards a mended heart One word to be spoken One soul that has awoken One step towards your broken heart Ten thousand ways to finish life just a few to end it right I’ll cross it singing this song and the rain will slap my face as I try to change my pace when I run from Marathon Chorus: just appreciate your blood and the time it takes to love your neighbor as your self

Let Me Down Slow 03:11
lyrics
Up so high I see so far down Things don’t feel I’m almost gone Gone away I wish that I could stay I feel it moving now Crawling in my brain Bubbling to the front Killing all the pain Minutes to release Why can’t this feeling stay Once I reach the peak It’s over for today Come down slow Come down Slow Let me down slow Let me down slow Let me down slow Let me down slow Let me down slow Do not let me go I always want to stay I always want to be Where I am today Do not let me go I don’t want to see The other side of here The real me.

Champion 03:13
lyrics
What do I want To be a player What is this judgement, you judge it all with I won’t live up to your estimation Yeah I have been measured and put in my place and I am a champion I am Champion I am champion I don’t fit in I’m not your people You don’t want me at the party I see You’ll write me out From salvation But I’ll keep on fighting until I am seen Seen as Champion Seen as Champion Seen as Champion And if you laugh at me I won’t, run away and hide (die) I’ll keep on building this, Until it explodes Until it explodes Into the sky When that day comes for me to join Join the pantheon I’ll sit right down upon the throne With the champions We’ve got the chance To be the people That we think we’ve always wanted to be We’ll GET up RIGHT now Out of the doldrums The wind it is coming to wash us clean and Be Born Champions Reborn Champions We are Champions We are, Champion
