Something Better
03:58
|

Someday I won't hate this,
Someday I won't be scared, aimless, and empty, and waiting to disappear.
Well, is it worth the wait?
Is there another way?
Hold on for something better to find you're better off just letting go.
Reach for a piece of heaven, to find you're reaching through a darker hole.
Some will remember, the others will all forget
The face in the crowd watching over the day we met.
As we turn away, the smiles we know will fade.
Now we lie awake faced with another day.

Fear The Worst
04:18
|

Come away with me, we can start again.
Leave it all behind, reincarnated
Another lesson in the art of sacrifice
This game’s not hard to win if you know who’s playing nice
I fear we’ve fallen backwards
I’m calling out
I’ve been here, I’ve seen this
I fear the words you believe in
I’ve been here, I’ve seen this
I fear the worst
Maybe make-believe makes it feel alright
New reality, newer place to hide
I never ask for much or beg for anything
A little human touch just might solve everything.
It’s been too long
I’ve finally seen the world
I can’t stay long
They’ll kick me to the dirt.

Small Talk
04:29
|
|||
Smiles disappear in the small talk while
eyes find a way through an old disguise.
Little lies, subtle cheats
In a game so out of reach
Killing time for beliefs that keep you walking blind
and chained from an open mind —
Sized and weighed against your own kind.
Little lies, subtle cheats
In a game so out of reach
Killing time for beliefs that keep you asking
Why? We’re drowning in your tide.
Why? Your sun will burn our eyes.
Lines; never crossed. Never paint outside.
Signed and sealed by the most divine.
Little lies, subtle cheats in a game so out of reach
Killing time for beliefs that keep you asking
Why? We’re drowning in your tide.
Why? Your sun will burn our eyes.
A little life with a little love is all that you get.
It fades away for the lucky ones who one day forget.

Fly In A Bottle
03:20
|
|||
I wanna know that we make it
I wanna know that we get out alive
But this world is sinking and I can see that old look in your eyes
Staring at the horizon
Watch the sun as it falls from the sky
Watch the fire from the rooftop
Wipe a tear as the smoke hits your eye
I don't wanna know, now that I know
All alone and searching for reason
Fly in a bottle, escape within reach
In another life, in another world, through another set of eyes I believed it
Now I believe that it can fall.
I wanna know we can break it
I wanna know we can knock it all down
Start anew, start a fire in the hearts beating deep underground
And our voices will carry tonight
Through a storm filled with poison and lies
While the rest of them curl up and die inside
Now whatcha gonna do with that hope?
I don't wanna know all that I know
Don't turn your head, don't let me walk away.

Old Friend
03:50
|

I don’t know you anymore, old friend
let’s pretend things haven’t changed.
Lost in the seams of love and war, old friend
I remember all the names.
I see their faces in my dreams, old friend
haunting me for every sin.
Their voices keep me company, old friend
echoes screaming from within.
I held on too tightly
Now it’s gone and I should’ve known better
I let go too lightly
Now they’re gone it’ll never get better
Withdrawn and drowning in the years, old friend
ghosts of another dying age
I smile for every happy year, old friend
we lost but memory saved

Light In The Grey
03:25
|

Surprise, surprise we were ready to die but the fall didn’t kill us, we’ll make it today.
The sun’ll rise through a stormy sky to remind the whole world that there’s light in the grey.
Tonight, tonight we all stand on a line with our eyes to the flood and our backs to the blaze.
Stand aside, ain’t your time to die.
No the fall didn’t kill us today.
What scares you don’t scare me
Fuck all your fantasies.
I can’t be the one to cart ‘em around
Inside, inside we are flickering lights. We are flashes and shadows – the peace and the pain.
The more we hide behind the fear it slides through our pores and it poisons the red in our veins.
Its getting darker now, spit all that venom out
and fake a smile as you dance in the rain.
The light is leaning out, pull at the edges and wait for it all to escape.
Bow to the storm, the tidal wave will wash out everything you hate.
Bow to the storm, the tide will wash it all away.
