There is something I can't grasp, it only happened recently And now it sits inside my mind all day all day all day all day The signs are looking somewhat blurred but the path seems very clear If I had only turned my thoughts away away away Maybe it's the future, maybe I don't care But it feels like what I see here's right Maybe I'm a dreamer, maybe nothing's there I'll find out some unlucky night Days slip into themselves and still this behemoth remains It's coming closer every day each day each day each day each day I lose myself inside the thought and I still haven't found an end There's got to be a price to pay to pay to pay to pay Maybe it's the future, maybe I don't care But it feels like what I see here's right Maybe I'm a dreamer, maybe nothing's there I'll find out some unlucky night, tonight, tonight

Beyond 03:28
What is on the other side Is it flame or is it air Or is it over once you've died Belief is yours to choose and share Who in this world truly knows Exactly what it is you'll find As both of your eyes are closed For the very final time

Metamorph 03:52
One year down and everything's changed Finally life has been rearranged Got so damn sick of being a bore Not the same lamer that I was before I guess it's true what they say That time might change us There's nothing any longer keeping me here to stay Cuz now for the first time I see that leaving can be painless Friends come and gone and come once again Things might work out but don't wait round til then There's too much to do to just sit and pine If I just get one life it's gonna be mine I guess it's true what they say That time might change us There's nothing any longer keeping me here to stay Cuz now for the first time I see that leaving can be painless

Liar 03:06
You tell me things that I know aren't true Just to keep me around so you can tell me what to do But this time I see through your selfish plans And now I finally can see that you're a liar liar Liar liar liar liar liar I tried my best to be everything you need It seems your hunger is impossible to feed And with my flower so will I fade away I hope you're happy I'm no longer here to stay You're a liar liar liar liar liar liar liar Fool me once and shame on you Hey it's something that girls do But it's also plain to see fool me twice and shame on me

My eyes are closed, the light is out too Try to think of nothing but I keep thinkin of you It's not by choice I can't help if I need you Feeling abandoned but what can I do Can't call you, don't know where you are Can't see you, don't know where I stand Can't take this, need you here right now Can't stand this, we could be together do you know how I'm all only in my own crazy world Cut off from all but mostly you girl It's not by choice I can't help it, I need you I'm feeling abandoned but what can I do, what the hell can I do Can't call you, don't know where you are Can't see you, don't know where I stand Can't take this, need you here right now Can't stand this, gotta wait a while Can't call you, don't know where you are Can't see you, don't know where I stand Oh can't take this, need you here right now Can't stand this, we could be together do you know how Do you know how, do you know how

Harvey Locks 02:11
Hey girl you look so lonely and still you actin like nothin's wrong Hey girl give me one reason that you stay with him I've seen you drowned in misery for way too long Oh girl if you know it why don't you just go I guess the history has currency I'll never know At least here it's just you and I and passing ships When you need a place to let it out then just say so
7.
Maybe 01:59
Whoa girl now that you're miles away I'm fond of the silence Almost think it could be better this way You found me when I was looking for just anyone Of course it felt right Anything would under that gun Maybe I jumped in this too fast Maybe it's something meant to last Maybe I just chase something new Maybe I'm not that into you Your picture watches me, I barely notice it at all It's been here so long it may as well be part of the wall Fine, we made it, another page on the calendar Somehow this ain't right Solitude's not what I should prefer Maybe I jumped in this too fast Maybe it's something meant to last Maybe I just chase something new Maybe I'm not that into you
8.
Wandering 02:59
There's a land beyond the sea that keeps on calling out to me Dreams and visions just make it clear that my place does not lie here Wandering wandering wandering wandering Movin on it's time to see, it's time to find some destiny Leavin my familiar home, venture to some great unknown Wandering wandering wandering wandering wandering wandering

Afterimage 02:44
There will come a time after all's been said When a man can have reflection on the dead The years have passed him by and now he asks to know How come all has changed and where did the time go And we shall all cross this path somewhere along the way When it comes we will know if we lived for the day So now this man looks abck on his now fading past Nostalgia sets in to ask why it couldn't last His friends so far away, if only he'd said goodbye Pictures and memories will make him smile and cry And we shall all cross this path somewhere along the way When it comes we will know if we lived for the day And will we know what to do as those days begin to fade One day today will be the past so live before it goes away

Moving On 02:04
Well I hear the word around is that you're thinking of Finding another one for you that will replace my love You've been wanting this one for as far back as you can tell As far as I'm concerned the both of you can go to hell And now I see where we stand, on sinking land So go fulfill your fantasy and take all the time you want Just keep in mind that you've blown it and I'll be moving on Nights will still be nights and the sun will still rise at dawn The only thing that's changed is me and I'll be moving on I'll be moving on, I'll be moving on Cuz baby who am I to stand in the way of true lust Your dumb fucked up mentality will turn your life to dust And in the end it will be me who gets the final laugh But go ahead, it's too late now and we are in the past And when you realize who had cared, I won't be there So go fulfill your fantasy and take all the time you want Just keep in mind that you've blown it and I'll be moving on Nights will still be nights and the sun will still rise at dawn The only thing that's changed is me and I'll be moving on I'll be moving on, I'll be moving on, I'll be moving on

No Return 02:45
Go a little further down the way Passin through a place I thought I'd stay Lookin back'll only drag it on Time to say goodbye, what's gone is gone I'll never be back again so don't bother asking when Times they change and so must I I know not the reason why Maybe one last stop before I go Yet I'd be a fool to ever show Never find no comfort with the dead Nothin left we ain't already said I'll never be back again so don't bother asking when Times they change and so must I I know not the reason why
