“Don’t Give in to Fate” Clock strikes half passed eleven The forty-eight goes a new direction Tracks are, Losing grip Live your life, but don’t give in to fate Looking back on years gone by It’s hard to remember all the things we’ve tried Hands are, losing grip Live your life, but don’t give in to fate Brother, Sister walk on by Don’t you see the tears I’ve cried? Mind’s eye, losing grip I’ll live the life, and I won’t give in to fate

There is a Way When you’ve had enough of the old scene All broken up from your wasted dreams You’re living it up all strung out again Without a hope or prayer for any of your lost soul Why stand out here on your own? What can be done all alone? You have to face up to be strong I’ve been too long in these familiar places All-important sad distorted faces I’ve had enough of your stone cold lies Your talk is cheap; your tall tales wide Can we rise out of this grave? What is there left to be saved? We have to become something more There is a way out of here A place to erase all your fears Now I can see that it’s near Can’t you see we’re running out on time? Every turn is hanging on the line You took a gamble on your freedom You sold it all without a reason Nothing’s gained that isn’t lost When you’re fighting without a cause There is a way out of here A place to erase all your fears Now I can see that it’s near Can’t you see we’re running out on time Every turn is hanging on the line You took a gamble on your freedom You sold it all without a reason Nothing’s gained that isn’t lost When you’re fighting without a cause

The Way Back 03:00
“The Way Back” Heart was lost and cold as stone Fourteen locks is overgrown I’m looking for a way back, looking for a way back Closed doors of plenty brought Without stop I’m leaving town Looking for a way back, You’re gonna find a way back As Places Change, Memories Re-Arrange Old Forgotten Names that hasten fame Will lead you on a new track, a new track, a new track That never will repeat itself, and never will delete itself, Never will repeat itself, and never will delete itself Hope that fades and breaks apart Will lead you looking for another start On your way back, Looking for a way back Foraged windows of cascade lines That glide within and without time Have you looking for a way back, You’ve gotta find a way back As Places Change, Memories Re-Arrange Old Forgotten Names that hasten fame Will lead you on a new track, a new track, a new track That never will repeat itself, and never will delete itself, Never will repeat itself, and never will delete itself Hope that fades and breaks apart Will lead you looking for another start Heart was lost and cold as stone Fourteen locks is overgrown Foraged windows of cascade lines That glide within and without time Closed doors of plenty brought Without stop I’m leaving town

“I Need a Window” Liberation from the need to succeed An Unquestioned motive with want to receive I swept away all joy with a sweat I kept away an ocean in full I Need a Window A border-less through fare And faces without glow A Crutch to Repair You were fully terribly under-found Wholly horribly under-wound Out of touch, Out of Feel Out of breath on my last wheel I Need a Window A border-less through fare Faces without glow A crutch to uphold Blackout and talk to the shadow Why must this keep riddling me? The skull of a melt-wax skeleton This mirage of the past it ruins me I Need a Window A border-less through fare And faces without glow A Crutch to Repair I Need a Window A border-less through fare And faces without glow A Crutch to Inspire

Sacrifice 04:40
“Sacrifice” At my wit’s end with all these pent-up fears I had nothing, no one, nobody I had pushed them all away Standing on an edge, everyone had faded I was calling out, calling out, calling out There was no reply at all You brought me hope, you brought me joy You brought me more than I could ever ask for You gave me peace of mind, you gave me light Throughout all of the darkest nights Sacrifice, Sacrifice, Sacrifice So I stood out once again, I was trying to make amends I was searching, searching, searching I was searching for a friend The dusk had reached its peak, after all these sullen days I thought I’d never escape Through barren wilderness You Opened doors, I thought I’d closed You brought me out of an empty room You brought me hope, you brought me joy You brought me more than I could ever ask for Sacrifice, Sacrifice, Sacrifice You gave me peace of mind, you gave me light Throughout all of the darkest nights You brought me hope, you brought me joy You brought me more than I could ever ask for

“Just Good Dreams” Another day to curse away The ghosts that trap them in four walls Throughout the day, the dream remains Though darkness pervades a constant fall If only you remembered her The guardian of moments past They led you on a ship away Forever was your home at last Another night when clock strikes three You awake without a an end The moon has turned a shade of red You turn the tides of time to mend If only you remembered her The guardian of moments past They led you on a ship away Forever was your home at last Another dusk to predicate Won’t you tire underneath the weight? This could bring about a change Yet the world still stands in the way If only you remembered her The guardian of moments past They led you on a ship away Forever was your home at last

“For that Left Behind” When water wells, emotion spills People think time’s all passed May I ask how one can say "I do not know how this can be?" A person releasing heart and soul An endless quest for synthesis To come in together to replicate A place of wonder beneath the sun Memories both far and near value A friend to friend Always ended to sadden many Not by choice, overflowing inside But only few accept the loss So not be lost in a sea of pity An endless quest for synthesis To come in together to replicate A place of wonder beneath the sun Memories both far and near value A friend to friend The rest are left to drift Relinquishing every morsel In desolation’s mist solitary confines Mourning For that left behind An endless quest for synthesis To come in together to replicate A place of wonder beneath the sun Memories both far and near value A friend to friend

“On New Year’s” Start the day with a fuzzy craze Beautiful moment in a red shirt Well chose quotes And a brother who sang like Lou Reed I wish I could say that I met you on New Year’s I hoped we could meet inside our minds I thought about changing my name, my face So we could touch, close to brush up against It was the scene that I was seeing, The first time I noticed a liberal monk, It was the scene I tried to be in, The first time I noticed a conservative drunk I wish I could say that I met you on New Year’s I hoped we could meet inside our minds I thought about changing my name, my face So we could touch, close to brush up against I will break and state my case While I strive to play your favorite tune You had it all Your girl was you’re everything but she broke your soul I bet you wished you could say that I met you on New Year’s I think you hoped you could meet inside your mind I bet you thought about changing my name, my face So you could touch, close to brush up against

“Where Are You Now” Been long time since I’ve seen your face Captured in images left to dissipate You were so fine, and you were all mine I couldn’t bear at all to see you go I couldn’t even bring myself to say goodbye Cause all we ever take will never fall apart So fade, fade without embrace I can longer imagine it any other way I contemplate the end of it all, yet I stand tall As I speculate on fate, I cannot concentrate Are there ever truly any honest songs? I think sometimes that all the writer’s get it wrong We sing along to all those lowly and forgotten tunes To make amends for what recompense You were always gonna go away While all these memories decide to stay I couldn’t bear at all to see you go I couldn’t even bring myself to say goodbye Cause all we ever take will never fall apart So just leave, leave without embrace I can longer imagine it any other way I contemplate the end of it all, yet I stand tall As I speculate on fate, I cannot concentrate We travel far away, only to make our way back home Nothing’s like that feeling when you’re all alone Another city with no friendly faces to compose You make a story without any of those I could never hold myself accountable For all the sins you say that I’ve committed For in all honesty, we’ve got human traits After all is said and done love is lost today Say it isn’t so
