Hello New Star!
03:06
|
|||
have you gone outside to check
if we can safely leave this place?
'cause all around the world is full of ghosts
who are lining up strong from coast to coast
to keep us down
hello new star
we've come so far
to take out chances (with you)
hello new star
its come to our attention
and we just have to mention
there's no fear anymore
and we don't comprehend the concept of war

Embrace
05:29
|
|||
you aren't the same anymore
there's no spark in your eyes
you are the ghost of a man
with pain you can't disguise
and you let it weigh you down
cause its the only way
to keep reminding yourself
the end could be today
we will stand
all alone
with our fingers crossed
sinking in sand
throwing the stone
hoping a life will not be lost
and the clouds let sunshine through
its tragic and hard to stay
locked in a cage for so long
thinking nothing will change
the walls just build up strong
i had to convince my mind
to never quit the game
because there's too many pieces to find
embrace

a light in the black
followed by something so real
it's hard to tell if i'm here anymore
or just a fly on a windshield
forsaken speck from a god below
i'm never sure where i'm flying to
oh no
and it's coming on
that feeling
that rains and pours down
and it's coming out
this anger
that makes me dead inside
but something has changed
a difference in the way
my perception leads me
to analyze the truth behind
nothing
it's always something
that takes a hold and won't let go
even when i ask
that i can take control
so i took it all
and walked into the rain
i was waiting for a light to shine my way
i guess i'll keep on waiting...

How It Works
04:37
|
|||
wasting my time
hit the rewind
try it again
figure it out
fiddle about
put down my pen
sitting at my desk looking at a shiny vacant screen
staring at myself
while thoughts escape before they're seen
that's how it works
that's how it works for me
break out the tools
filter the pools
to get somewhere
drawing the lines
ignoring the signs
too busy to care
waiting for the world to give me something to critique
some prefer i close my mouth when i decide to speak
you can think it's impossible
and scream into the sky
i believe it is logical
to take a chance and fly with a dream
defy what seems to be...

Too Simple
08:58
|

words
only words
could drive a stake right through the heart
of anyone left in its path like
time
when it's time
people open doors and say hello
to everything they'll leave behind
'cause everyone thinks their god will change its mind
that would be too simple
truth
just the truth
all i'm asking is an easy task
and what i get is nothing more than
glass
broken glass
cutting jagged little lies into my face
until i look away
when all i want is someone here to say...
"that would be too simple"
learning steals joyful thunder
ignorance, so easy
to have a happy ending

All We Have
03:34
|
|||
when everyone has left you down
i'll be the only one who doesn't let you drown
all we have
all we have
all we have
is us to depend on
for truth
for love
i recall a time
so long ago it hurts to try
thinking plagues the soul
with tears from yesteryear gone by
but nothing dares to shade the light
from all the joy you give me
beauty kills the best with a smile
and i'm set free
we close the book on the past
it doesn't matter now
it's where we are today
that feels like home

On My Own
04:20
|
|||
a cross on the wall
means nothing at all
if that is what i'd like to believe
with no embrace
of a holy place
i can choose to be naive
why should i care if you're really there?
i don't see, please show me
'cause i'm fine alone
why should i prey
just to convey, my feelings?
i'm dealing
i'm fine on my own
a man with a stage
reads aloud from a page
but i was never one for fiction
fairy tales
so distorted and frail
oh, the friction
i can live and give love
'cause if you cared
you'd have to feel the need to heal it all
if you declared
that man is wrong and all belong
i could change

Moral Disgrace
06:33
|
|||
i was standing next to someone
who was blaming the world today
he was handing out cards
for his sympathy game
and i had to walk away
holding on to all the venom inside I said...
live
even if it's hard to
forgive
someone with a different side
'cause all that we do
to impose on a view
can break the message and take
everyone into a moral disgrace
a bigot to the left of me
is trying hard to make us see
that some people never learn
i heard a boy say "what is AIDS?"
his dad said "god just hates the gays
who all deserve to suffer and burn."
and i wanna scream out
'cause i don't understand how anyone
could teach a kid about things so hateful
so untrue
misleading a puppet
who doesn't have a clue
and there is no more skin on my tongue
but i won't let go for something i know can't be won
all i am is human flesh
i'm afraid i can't account for the rest
but i'll do my best as i take a stand
if i think you're wrong, i may raise my hand
'cause i'm free to choose
and you can't abuse my mind

Wasted
03:33
|
|||
a sigh
a deep breath of truth
its hard to know
move on
wasted
at last
the missing piece
contain yourself
wasted
a sigh
a deep breath for you
its good to know
you moved on
