But can I find my way to you?
We've got this everywhere It's hard to see it through Time wither like my fingers I've given everything and more I can't go on with it in mind But now we're wrong and out of time Into your mind Yes, you'll find That we were better off before The sands of time have closed the door We were better off before No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before Time crushing all my soul A faded picture left of me Upon the wall Pain now my only friend When shadows fall I will remember The sands of time have closed the door And left us broken evermore No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before (Guitar Solo) I can't go on with it in mind But now we're wrong and out of time Into your mind Yes, you'll find That we were better off before The sands of time have closed the door We were better off before No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before The sands of time have closed the door And left us broken evermore No chance to find a way down Yes, we were better off before |

Darlin' -don't let me go
until the last train rides I wanna stay with you when the morning comes and it's time to rise but I can't lift my head - baby let me die release the sorrow - deep within my eyes life's only borrowed Don't build your world with bitter regret 'cuz I still feel it's not over yet what we've done we'll have to forget or all you'll reap is bitter regret Wonderin' -how this came to pass why my future runs through the hourglass talk to me - 'cuz I can't lift my head anti-social suicide lyin' on my bed release the sorrow - deep within my eyes life's only borrowed 'cuz I still feel it's not over yet what we've done you'll have to forget or all we'll reap is bitter regret [Talkin' to my friend misfortune take me for a ride how I wish that I could only give you back your life again] Darlin' - I wanna stay with you 'til the morning comes and that last train rides |

It's not hard to believe
That the world isn't real When the sun doesn't shine in your eyes All the time It's not hard to concede As we cry and we bleed everyday We just won't leave Feel your heart stop Still alive but you're not So you scream that you've had enough, Done enough, said enough See the reflections of lives that you've changed As you look in the mirror and try to believe It's been hard that I know But I could have told you so You reap what you sow Can you see In my face All these tears I saved for you Can you see It's not right That our love was never real Is it right to hold on to the words that we spoke Even though now that feeling is gone in your eyes It's been hard to let you go Even though you found someone new Everyday It's been hard to find With no peace of mind Can you see...... |

As I walked along the beach last night
Tried to find myself and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Riding on the wind you know it cries When you need some one It's hard to let them go When you know that their the one When you feel your hope is gone Know that I still care for you Even thoe your gone I taste your tears You think it would have passed After all these years Thoe you find away Every night I think of you I hope your sleeping well When you need some one When your hearts alone When you feel your hope si gone Know that I still care for you When I feel you close to me Even thoe it's just a dream Please forgive that I still care When your lonliness is there I still think of you Care for you Waiting for After all this time has gone I still feel you in my arms And when you need some one Know that I still care for you As I walked along the beach last night Tried to find my self and get it right If you saw the changes in my eyes Would you come back |

I'm walkin' down these dark streets - all alone
a light ahead free coffee if you have no home a parking lot full of people - same as me waiting for the Messiah - his shift will start at three He's a real convenience store messiah idol worship for an idle mind he's a real convenience store messiah turning bottled water into win waiting for the papers to come outside they make such nice warm blankets - get in line sometimes he might let us - stay inside the only one who will listen he can be so kind He's a real convenience store messiah idol worship for an idle mind he's a real convenience store messiah turning bottled water into wine (They see through eyes) looking through his window (a glowing light) staring at his vision late at night (they idolize, they realize) reaching out their hands He's a real convenience store messiah idol worship for an idle mind he's a real convenience store messiah turning bottled water into wine |

wait for me behind
the walls behind the sky revolution finds the road to ease our minds can we walk outside and leave our fragile pride within the holes forever deeper we must hide shattered pictures of a moment lost in time between the cracks in the ground between the cracks in the ground I see a painted face through a colored haze an enchanted place its time to sail away In my eyes I've lived a life that's so surreal my imagination questions what is real shadows spinning in my mind just like a wheel between the cracks in the ground between the cracks in the ground passing through the doors I stop to close them one by one looking through the keyholes far behind |

It's been a long time since I felt this way
you know I haven't lost my mind I'm just tired I see the souls on the street they're all crying I'm not trying to be 'cuz I'm no better than the dying no I'm not trying to be the one And when I leave this place that other realm I'll find strawberry streams we'll drink from white frosted clouds we'll sail on and when I leave this place that other realm I'll find sun dripping rainbow colors I'm sailing to You know I never thought I'd see the loneliness of dying you know I thought I'd be the one that wasn't fighting how I wish that I could leave and find a place that's quiet 'cuz I truly do believe that someday I will find deep waters we sail on No wonder I falter how does life release this fear se we can set out on that journey we call life When my friend comes to call will I recognize all the things that have been told will it fill my eyes when the sun releases me and the night begins to cradle all the visions I have seen guide me into deep waters And when I leave this place that other realm I'll find strawberry streams we'll drink from white frosted clouds we'll sail on and when I leave this place soft heathered fields we'll stroll on sun dripping rainbow colors I'm sailing to Deep waters I can't seem to find you - no I can't seem to find you - no I can't seem to find you Deep waters |

I played the fool it seems a thousand times before
When I got older thought I've learned my lesson well Then you came into my life and brought me down Another lesson towards my fate I feel like I've been standin' on the sun Your fire burned my soul like no ones ever done You can say what you want but don't bring me down If you want me to play in your garden Then don't bring me down Baby if you want my love Then don't bring me down Your hyperstatic conversation till the dawn It makes me tired but I see it turns you on A tense relationship was all you've ever known I tried to play but now it cuts me to the bone I look into your eyes a thousand years away For my compassion all I got was tears I feel like I've been standing on the sun Your fire burned my soul like no one's ever done |

Turn the lights down low there's nobody home I've been watchin' for hours the clock on the wall Seems the hands are frozen they don't move at all Then the silence breaks as you walk through the door On an on an on somewhere I don't belong I'm all out of reasons to stay so I won't On an on an onit won't leave me alone Wish that you could remember the time when I said I can't wait any longer to love you Turns my reflection away from the day I can't stand when you're so indecisive Make up your mind so I can escape When I hold you close there's nobody home I can hear every heartbeat whisper and woe Turn me on with your eyes as I smile right on cue You rehearse everything that you say an you do On an on an on you and I don't belong There's no reason to stay anymore so I won't On an on an on something's terribly wrong Wish that you could remember the time that we said I waited so long I'm going to the otherside I'm losing my mind over you I've been watchin' for hours the clock on the wall Seems the hands are frozen they don't move at all |

In the middle of the night you
know I heard the voices call said they'd try to ease me through my pain then I started to question am I sane or confused don't think that I will ever know It's hard to believe that the sun still sets without you I was so afraid to let you know It's hard to believe that the world still turns without you I was so afraid to let you go I was starting to believe that I was destined for the worst It was all the life I'd ever know It was getting to the point that I'd thought I'd not return I was so unsure of where I'd go It's hard to believe that the sun still sets without you I was so afraid to let you know It's hard to believe that the world still turns without you I was so afraid to let you go In the middle of the night sometimes I hear the voices call don't think that I will ever know It's hard to believe that the sun still sets without you I was so afraid to let you know It's hard to believe that the world still turns without you I was so afraid to let you go |

Said you were Sophia Should have known you by another name I tried to be a believer babe But I sank down in your shame Livin' on the east side I was in the west I tried to bring my love to you But you trashed me like the rest I've been haunted by your love You gave me heartbreak Tried to be your lover tried to be your friend Tried to take your pain away Would have loved you to the end But their ain't no use in cryin' I will get along Hope you find your happiness In your misery and woe And I hope you're cryin' all alone You left me haunted by your love Haunted And when you wake you find you're still alone Drownin' in your tears Will you see what you have done When the love I had for you is gone |

Liquid fused around my body
swimming in the night's black water justifies a child's exsistance innocence abounds within us but what does it matter Watch my hand turn shades of gray feel my life's breath fade away soon I'll walk through gates of steel to a place not yet revealed but what does it matter Hello death, hello death hello death -- how do you do? I don't remember calling you All I need is just a drink of water help me Jesus -- try to ease my pain all I need is just to drink your water hello Mr. Death please go away Here I go into the earth and here I'll wait until my birth I will rise again someday tranquility will find a way but what does it matter Hello death, hello death hello death -- how do you do? I don't remember calling you All I need is just a drink of water help me Jesus -- try to ease my pain all I need is just to drink your water hello Mr. Death please go away |

to take another fall (out of the dark) am I anticipating (something is wrong) certain final call (one last for the part) the hands of time keep turning (bring me to life) the world begins to turn *How many lives are remaining how many souls is he saving how many lives are remaining how many souls is he saving All of us keep trying (hope for the best) to place a higher bid (into the night) on your knees and praying (laying to rest) let's not and say we did (image shining bright) what's the point you're making (show me it's right) the point of no return *Repeat Someone told me forgiveness comes from you so I wasted one there was nothing to lose now I see that faith is for the few Absolution came standing in the queue you know I lost my faith standing next to you *Repeat |

I was sinking in a storm I thought the world had left me now I know that I was wrong It's Resurrection Day gonna leave it all behind gonna clear my mind of you gonna pave my own road I don't mind -what you want I don't mind when your hounds begin to beg I don't mind when you kick the ones that fall I don't mind - I don't mind at all It's better to be lonely than to live with all your pain I was walking through the desert I was calling out your name but I never got an answer still I loved you just the same the sun began to burn me reminded me of all those days I don't mind -what you want I don't mind when your hounds begin to beg I don't mind when you kick the ones that fall I don't mind - I don't mind at all When you leave me for another I won't be calling out your name now that burning sun is setting only one thing left to say I don't mind -what you want I don't mind when your hounds begin to beg I don't mind when you kick the ones that fall I don't mind - I don't mind |

Leave me here alone.
Lying in the burning sun. This world has bleached my bones. I should have taken your advice. Lying all alone. Lost to all my memories. Feeling like a stone. As the sky above me starts to weep. The desert falls. In my mind an endless sea. I will never know. What was and that will never be. Deep within this hole. Flowers lying on my bed. Softly as you speak. Telling me that you've been sad. Leave me here alone. Cause I won't be coming back again. The moments that we own. Lie scattered in the sand. I surrender. Surrender All my love for you. Please remember. Remember babe. I'll be there for you. Leave me here alone. Cause I won't be coming back again. The moments that we own. Lie broken in the hands of time. I surrender. I Surrender. All my love for you. Please remember.Remember. I'll be there for you. I surrender. Surrender. All my love for you. Please remember.Remember babe. I'll be there for you. For you. |

Mother dear I've got to go Find my way out in the world Somethin's callin' me and I can't stay As the leaves are fallin' down Soon the snow upon the ground Hope you'll understand why I can't stay Waiting for the sun When I start to run Waiting for....... Though I'm young not quite a man I'll try and do the best I can Duty calls my friends are all aboard Feel the wind across my face Standing ready all in place On the trigger I'll become a man Waiting for the sun See the people falling down Crimson colors all around Tryin' to make it to the higher ground Mother dear I had to go Find my way out in the world Sorry but I won't be coming home Waiting for the sun |

Safer today to go outside your window
Go down the stairs You remember the way New combinations you found in your letter Ready to fly and escape You're off the meds and bad tranquilizers Keeping it down isn't your style of fun Taking a walk in the park by the children All that you want is a smile Everybody's getting high today Go on and alter your mind Fade away Fade away Fade away Let it go, let it go, there's no reason to stay All that you want is some peace in the sunshine Far from the freaks who are on Staring at TV alone with no sunsets Time for your oranges and blues You're off the meds and the bad tranquilizers Keeping you down isn't your style of fun Taking a walk in the park by the children All that you want is a smile Everybody's getting high today Go on and alter your mind Fade away Fade away Fade away (Prozac, Lithium, Wellbutren, Clonapin, Xanax, Valium, Crack Cocaine, Heroine, Speed, X's, Hash, Pot, Effexor, Profexor, Ellexor, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam…) Everybody's getting high today Go on and alter your mind So when they lock you again In a white room Holding you down Antiseptic your fate You don't belong in a place Where they talk to themselves It's just hell Let it go, let it go, let it Fade away All you want is a smile Let it go, let it go, let it Fade away Fade away Fade away |

So -- so incomplete
we look into the world -- find no peace once -- it seemed serene we'd be forever young and so it seemed what does it mean -- I find no answers kept in a dream -- soft colored layers I see myself through the looking glass a shade of gray a shade of black no ups or downs just in betweens The gentle rain begins to fall come with me and see it all Rise above the world upon my wings I was sleeping with the sky beneath my feet Now I drift endless and free with the wind that carries me what does it mean -- what does it matter kept in a dream with soft colored layers The gentle rain begins to fall come with me and see it all Rise above the world upon my wings I was sleeping with the sky beneath my feet |

You were the one on the trigger
Deciding the fate of us all Testing my fate in religion Tryin to make sense of it all All hope was lost, I found reason To look in your eyes and find something The promise you gave was that you'd remain, Not leave me here and go missin I've been the one in the shadows Watching your life through a window When you open your eyes and feel me inside you why would you leave me for others Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad I'm still I'm sad All hope was lost, I found reason To look in your eyes and find something It's was like two days apart From the truth Was my soul the piece you been missin You've got the gun pull the trigger Strait to the heart of the matter If it's all been in vain why do I remain Watchin you leave me for others Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, this day is not through Wait for me, it's about time were through Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad Still I'm sad Wait for me, I'll come for you Wait for me, this day is not through Wait for me, it's about time we through Wait for me, can't you see I'm still sad Still I'm sad Still I'm sad Still I'm sad Still I'm sad Watch your life through your window Shadows fall As the darkness falls to gray |

I walk these streets they built with progress I search for truth but found no well And when the sun arises diamonds in the dawn I look to you but found no one Back to distant stars where I know you are I wanna be back home again To that sacred sun where the sky is warm I'll be in your arms again I'll save the last goodbye for you Under the neon lights in darkness I found a way to bring you home I read the words I cannot see why they all follow It's all just poison for their minds An as I slip into the madness The angel spirit cries for me To that sacred sun where the sky is warm I'll be in your arms again I'll save the last goodbye for you |
