When I see myself after twenty years and I struggle to hold a pen Convictions that meant the world never would again And that same old man after thirty years unnerving battle to be set free From familiar faces as his dreams get dragged to sea Will I find a truth in the stories I've been told? Stories bought not sold What follows me down this long and winding road Is my body and my soul Now I see myself after forty years and I struggle just to say goodbye Just as cynical but with a love I can't deny Will the wisdom of just getting older bond with the fire of that younger man? And recognize my place as I'm born again Will I find a peace in the stories I've been told Stories bought not sold And what carries me down this long and winding road Is my body and my soul When I see myself after twenty years and I struggle to hold a pen To scribe these words of sentience but I'm given the chance again

Sometimes when I wake up There's something missing it's not enough A belief that I have changed Or just nostalgic for my younger days Then you hear it in a certain song The blood pumping the draw is strong Then I realize that I was wrong It's time that I return to where I belong A thousand suns, a thousand rains A thousand nights, one thousand days A thousand lifetimes and I'll be here Sometimes I wonder will I still fit in I know that I must start but where to begin Surrounded by friends and people who care And if I go they'll still be there In my darkest hour a light in me Is a reminder of eternity And when my number's called I'll persevere Still standing strong after all these years

Life is the chance to connect the disconnected A belief to help us find a way Back to a peace of no more separation Makes no difference where I am at end of day A crushed heart that's felt by many A red rose that's bled to dry Amass the sales of sentiment Of lonely nations hung up on pride I live my life without the fear of contradiction That's when the healing begins Liberate myself from a soul in isolation Make no mistake we'll be much happier in the end A crushed heart that's felt by many A red rose that's bled to dry Amass the sales of sentiment Untamed emotions purified I felt the sea I felt the earth I saw the light that fades the darkness at birth I am alive...

Outdated 03:08
Walk with my eye on the streets that now imply If I don't get to live I don't get to die Been left alone in a city I used to call home If I can't win why even try? The modern world kicks me aside Nowhere to go The pace quickens with every breath My one speed is slow Out of the game, I can barely recall my own name Your steps ahead, they all look the same If no one speaks no one can hear And silence falls on a deaf ear I got the lies, I've got the feeling There's no use because I'm outdated I've seen the stares, the people laughing The verdict's in that I'm outdated

Expressions 02:24
Desires lead to disappointment Creating failures self imposed Seeking pleasures in the doorways That our psyches only close Knocked down bruised and I'm battered I paddle out to only sink And this long road home Is so much longer than you think I'm the reason for my anger An expression of my rage Decisions I make that get me nowhere Rattle the bars of my own cage They say I have no concept Of what it's like to not be free But as my shadow surrounds me I'm forced into obscurity Of this long, dark tunnel I squint to catch a glimpse of light When offers lead me to surrender A shelter from the darkest night I'm the reason for my anger An expression of my rage Decisions I make that get me nowhere Rattle the bars of my own cage As I'm falling down I can't give up I'll drown in this here town I can't give up In my chance to win I can't give up Though my chance is slim I can't give up

Voices 03:38
These voices say I can't look back Does my past really define me? These muddled voices reek of fear and urgency These voices speak with jealousy Can I really be happy and free? Fervent voices and they're closing in on me But I'd like to think that I won't be a victim of fear Are these just feelings of sorrow that I hold dear? Like a closest friend and it's a struggle just to say goodbye They're deafening but I know that they're just lies These voices are in my head
7.
Still trying to crawl out of this hole It's been too long since I've bared my soul But you see me, a ship lost at sea The empty need a leader An unknown soldier left to cover the post A desperate host, I'm your holy ghost And when I rise will it subside? Will the sun shine on my side? Holding on like never before When all hope's gone I carry on A new life will begin at dawn Holding on like never before

Out Of Tune 02:38
Youthful cause convictions I'm feeling out of tune Barriers, restrictions I'm feeling out of tune We stand side by side Alone, with once like minds To challenge and reset the goals But like a two edged sword Regained and lost rewards We did nothing to strengthen our roles Glorified stagnation I'm feeling out of tune Spiritual condemnation I'm feeling out of tune We stand side by side Alone, with once like minds To challenge and reset the goals But like a two edged sword Regained and lost rewards We did nothing to strengthen our roles

Homecoming 03:27
My timid eyes are blinded by the darkest clouds of Spring Unaware of what true faith will bring I pack my bags and looking back I wave "so long" to the rain Will the man I was on return be the same? There is a reason for my homecoming To heal the wounds I left behind I've been assigned to this homecoming Not a day's gone by I don't wonder why Without a word our tears speak volumes like 300 kinds of rain This highway I will own for four more days As I grow close familiar fears creep like ghosts inside my mind But in the end not a day's gone by There is a reason for my homecoming To heal the wounds I left behind I've been assigned to this homecoming Not a day's gone by I don't wonder why This night I'm coming home and I wonder to myself Not a day's gone by that I don't wonder...

Hollow Voice 02:25
Not every output needs a reference Not every artwork need be compared Not every thought requires attention Not every opinion should be shared It's a hollow voice, a hollow voice Hollow voice, a deserved trend It's a hollow voice, a hollow voice Hollow voice marks the end Freedom of speech defends your forum What's the point to be recognized? When that freedom that you value Turn the tables and it's compromised Why does my happiness offend you? Jealous rage turns a blind eye I don't try to silence your agenda So don't you try and silence mine It's a hollow voice, a hollow voice Hollow voice, a deserved trend It's a hollow voice, a hollow voice Hollow voice marks the end Hollow voice Hollow stand Hollow voice Hollow man

Hey - here we go again What the hell am I doing here? Used to be my favorite thing Now I complicate it This is an S.O.S. I can't remember most days If you see me pissing on myself Please don't photograph me I can't pretend it's not true And everything I want in you Hey - you with the fire in your mouth All you do is talk, talk, talk You're so famous for that speak so low I don't want to talk about it I don't want to hear your tongue I don't want to get to close to feel it burn There goes the undertow sucking me in backwards I don't want to get caught too soon And all the noise I'm hearing coming from the attic It's so internally blue I don't want to - (have) to much to talk to

Shine 02:42
Where is the world we came from? Born of self pride and honest dignity Dip my toe in this pool of life Just one more man drowning out at sea Shortsighted businessmen take our world away As we watch our playground crumble to dust How far does your dollar go and what do you know About cultures raised on rubble and rust? What is the cost of safety? As we coddle our young is this true love we show? We shrink down their world's to size That should be beaming with life and only encouraged to grow Shortsighted businessmen take our world away As we watch our playground crumble to dust How far does your dollar go and what do you know About cultures raised on rubble and rust? We've lost sight of our own origins And somehow we lost our way While our futures are destroyed Cause we can't control the pleasures we crave These are the darkest days my friends but we'll keep on shining on Knowing that what we built is ours and it keeps us shining on These are the darkest days my friends but we'll keep on shining on And so I put my trust in you and it keeps me shining on
