Terminal 04:15
It was evident that I couldn't see Because I mistook it for love No I wasn't blind I just chose to keep my eyes closed I wanted to pretend I wanted to believe this meant something Opening my eyes meant... meant reality Reality meant disappointment Take me from this place It's absurd how our convictions become less as we grow old It's bizarre how love loses it's strength as the seasons change Oh how a seed; It grows in the hearts of men It takes root inside our veins; to our thoughts Light, love, all of the above Faith, integrity All these things I thought I knew were fake Take me from this place It's terminal It's terminal They way I think you are the cure

The night has turned to morning The clouds above are soaking up the sea I'm thinking of the future And the complex things that always worry me The rain outside might flood my house Am I drowning in my sleep? All the water in my lungs might fill too high so I can't breathe I can feel the light above my head There must be something more to this Uncertainty is controlling me Darling are you waiting For the stars above to grant the wish you made? To restore your innocence And erase the thoughts that have plagued your mind each day? You're certain of what's right and wrong It's not a matter of ignorance You're just immune to love because you give yourself to everyone I can feel the light above my head There must be something more to this Uncertainty is controlling me Yeah. When I close my eyes you're all I see Bring me back to reality Calm, collected, and controlled It's overrated Slow down; your life is just beginning So you can slow down I feel the light above my head There must be something more to this Uncertainty is controlling me When I close my eyes you're all I see Bring me back to reality Calm, collected, and controlled It's overrated

Ocean Song 03:40
I'll swim in the ocean The salt in my eyes makes me blind to the distance As I drift away slowly My eyes gently open I can't see the shore All the fear in my head has taken control of my mind Can you see through the notion that we're all the same? Do you feel disconnected from the ones that you need? Love is such a complex concept to swallow All the fear in my head is taking control Of my mind Of my mind Let's dream of the days when our hearts were still pure When we had everything even though we were poor The waves will expel you unto the sand So just breathe in the air Oh give up control! Help me find That peace of mind Let's dream of the days when our hearts were still pure When we had everything... we were poor

I fell asleep at the wheel again I passed out cold I woke up in the forest Far from the road I came across the path of magical animals They said, "Boy you're still only sleeping, but while you are here... we'll sing" I fell asleep by the camp fire amused I woke up in my own bed confused I laid there for awhile to think about it Of course it was just a dream but those words were true Keep your head up Don't let life get you down You know time is not your friend Calm yourself down and wipe those cold tears away And know that love is real It's just a diamond in the mine that you gotta find on your own I think I'll take this whole day I'll wander the town I'll find the ones with their heads low I'll sit them down I'll look them straight in the eye and tell them Keep your head up Don't let life get you down You know time is not your friend So calm yourself down and wipe those cold tears away And know that love is real It's just a diamond in the mine that you gotta find on your own

Projector 03:46
It's time to go It's time to leave You're going back the way you came This little town that you passed through In this journey of a life You met a boy with love to give That tender heart he gave to you He didn't know what else to do Because he had never let anyone in How can you not feel this too? How can I erase you from my mind? "You don't have to leave You can stay here with me But if there's nothing left for you I understand" My mind was a projector My eyelids were movie screens When I dreamt about you it played the perfect scenes How can you not feel this too? How can I erase your from my mind? How human we are How fragile we are Our hearts are paper thin I know that the past Is just broken glass The shards might cut your skin

Heart Of Wax 04:51
Collect my bones and throw me out to sea Take all my wealth and give it to my family "Captain sir, How did things turn out this way?” I'm not a righteous man, but all I can do is pray Why is there reasoning in doubt? This heart of wax will melt away Leaving no shape Look up The lighthouse on the shore It's blinding light is comforting but so far away My ship is sinking I've lost control Iv'e been divided Body and soul Do not fear what the monsters may bring Something in the sky is controlling everything You'll be alright Why is there reasoning in doubt? This heart of wax will melt away Leaving no shape Look up The lighthouse on the shore It's blinding light is comforting but so far away Follow These lights will bring you home Follow These lights will bring you home Why is there reasoning in doubt? Why is there reasoning in doubt?

Bones 05:08
An empty shell with nothing left that's all I am I'll fake my righteousness Force a smile we're in denial but now I see The foolish attempts to be The puppet on a string So fake yet we're convinced that the movements that we see are real It's unfortunate the strings are tied to a liar Who eats and sleeps and breathes deception But it goes to show there's no fulfillment in a life like this Yet we take and we take Until there's nothing left to hold on to. This house seems to be haunted by the memory of something I used to love Now the walls are closing in on me I swear to God You're watching me from above As I attempt to write these words on paper I'm sure you know I don't have a clue Of what it is I'm trying to accomplish by dwelling in this mess of things But it goes to show there's no fulfillment in a life like this Yet we take and we take Until there's nothing left to hold on to. It goes to show there's no fulfillment in a life like this Yet we take oh we take Until there's nothing left to hold on to. No I can't see the wind But I feel it as it blows the leaves Your body's in the ground But I know you're safe and sound In the arms of Jesus No I can't see you But I feel you in my bones I feel you I feel you in my bones
8.
Walking down an empty road A tree within the soil I'll lie beneath it's wilting leaves and I'll stare up at the clouds So many imperfections with everything I see I don't want to stay here anymore There's nothing left for me A stagnant brutal atmosphere It hangs above the clouds The sky it turns from blue to grey The rain hits the ground I will of course seek shelter, but these leaves they will not do The water falls but after all this world is not my home Forty years in the womb I'll try to understand I don't feel what I should feel I don't know what I should know
9.
The line between my heart and yours is thinning with each passing day The world outside we're petrified of everything we can't conceive Tell my why we medicate ourselves Oh how we dwell in self inflicted hell We float though our lives begging for a reason For the things we can't understand It's never ending If dreams were made of empty air I'd fall asleep I would not care The dreams of you sustain my soul They fill the void That empty hole in my chest They tell me I am fine Progress; it happens gradually with time We float though our lives begging for a reason For the things we can't understand It's never ending I see the sky It opens as angels float toward you They tell you there's a reason for the things you've been put through I know it's all we have The days pass by, but it's okay Because the love that we possess will keep us strong Until the end

I Know 04:41
The years they pass The seasons change Oh God I just don't feel the same This awful doubt invades my mind The wind, the rain, the passing time It's true I know, I know, I know They say that you are there But what if every word they say is just a foolish lie? The subtle voice inside my mind It tells me there is truth to find Recalling when my father said "Son, you know that grace is all we have" I know, I know, I know It haunts me in my sleep The thought the possibility you were never there at all So I've given up control I know the ground beneath our feet will fade away I've found, I've realized I am branches in the wind Regardless of how much I sway I will never drift away Don't fall through my hands Take me somewhere safe were I can stay... Beneath all I am There's so much more that's left inside Don't fall through my hands Take me somewhere safe were I can stay Beneath all I am There’s so much more that's left inside of me

Carry On 04:58
There's something in the air It's taking me To the place were I can't see much of anything Is there peace within this place? Or is it apathy? Oh quench this grief with grace and set me free Silence brings me peace A beautiful release A thousand burning leaves on a scorching tree The smoke it fills my lungs I cannot breathe We're searching for a taste of clarity In a room that's filled with eyes/ice and sympathy Silence brings me peace A beautiful release The sweetness of this place We'll sleep tonight to see your face To see your face Carry on Carry on Carry on Carry on Hallelujah. Carry on.
