I have lost the war Here is where I found A sweet for nothing dream A time for coming down The sun is alone on the rise As night falls away My mind opens wide To greet in the day I can feel the hope Shining right on through I take my deepest breath I see my clearest view I know something must break It’s so fucking near Won’t make it alone There’s always the fear That who I am And who I’ll never be Together here as one Will be the end of me Just then a voice from the past Gently did call Sound filled my head Words sang that all I want is you And everything’s got to be just like you want it to All I want is you And everything’s got to be just like you want it to And I do I’m too far from who you are There’s more than love to rise above I’m too far from who you are The days I’ve known are going home I’m home I’m so far away I’m home

Six In One 04:47
Goodbye The leaves they fell Slowly to the ground All around Black The darkest clouds Move to close the sun From everyone Walk From shadows red Turning upside down Without a sound Blind Are eyes that stare Fixing on the dawn The color’s gone Hey you those things you do Breaking all apart and crashing straight on through Hey you What are you going to do when it falls? Hey kid those things you did Breathing down the world and now your head still spins Hey kid What are you going to do after all? Words go round and round And again Hands go round and round Searching for answers Your silence let’s me know I needed more of that you You wouldn’t show Looking back now There’s no one clear to blame Because in the end we’re Just six in one the same

I used to think leaving this old town, would turn things around, for me Now that I’m so far away, I’m haunted just the same, what I’d do to hear those voices I guess the things I’m missing are things I’ll never get back There’s some things I’m missing, some things I’ll never get back I’ve got to find a way to keep things real, in this plastic dome, some call home I guess I could always smash the face in, but that’s been done before, and it’s proven to be useless Those are things I’m missing, the things I’ll never get back I guess the things that I’m missing, are things I’ll never get back I’m gonna find it someday…… You know it’s tearing me apart To try and think of words to say How people disappoint me in so many different ways But we’re all in this as one We’ve got to find a better way The world will change, I know it will, believing in someday Someday…….

Lying awake staring blank to the wall Parting eyes fix the rain as it falls Shadowdance race their way to the floor Haunting a choice that I made once before Always alone, broken in time Thoughts about leaving me within mine Hesitate, no use for a word A gift of a sign without being heard Still I close the world up from you Because I’m safe in the shell I’m diving into That’s the way Turn the radio loud That’s the way That’s the way that I found Everything is going to be all right It never felt this way again Tasting the tear of a last fatal win Jump from the skin of leaving behind All the unknowns that I’ve come to find So I will crawl, unable to run Any escape when you’re under the gun You forget, I choose to ignore Turning away and sliding once more Still I close the world up from you Because I’m safe in the shell I’m diving into That’s the way Turn the radio loud That’s the way That’s the way that I found Everything is going to be all right

I walked on the beach into the open of air The prints that I followed were leading me there The waves washed away all my presence of mind Just a trace of the prints was all I could find As they led to the rocks and the cliffs by the sea With each careful step came a fresh memory Of laughing and playing and dreaming as kids My love never died but we both know yours did Expendable like a foolish daydream Things are not always how they seem Motionless water reflecting colors alive The sun says hello and the moon says goodbye Goodbye I walked in the rain for a vision once fed As heaven sweet cries fought from drowning my head In memories of you and a time that’s now lost The line has been drawn and our friendship’s the cost All puddles just form as they gather the rain While I waited for you but you never once came Just left standing alone as the rain hides my tears Each falling drop screams for each falling of year Expendable like a foolish daydream Things are not always how they seem Motionless water reflecting colors alive The sun says hello and the moon says goodbye Goodbye Flying straight clean free Flying straight clean free Flying straight clean free Flying straight clean free

Under You 03:25
The sun will rise again Now it’s under you I’m breaking free from thoughts Of yesterday Now and forever will always be Our time has come
