Rat Race 05:09
lyrics
buy track
The sun peaks over the horizon Flying down this empty highway The wind through my hair Airing out the stale and unaware Gazing off into no where Our minds run wild with no cares A deep breath, the warm sun on my face Takes me away, to outer space Shadows disappear, hopes are all now clear Like floating over a rat race, nothing can touch me in this place Like floating over a rat race, nothing can touch me in this place It's the breaking of a new dawn Wind whispering smiles in song Clouds giving way to blue Clearing out the dark moon A deep breath, the warm sun on my face Takes me away, to outer space Shadows disappear, hopes are all now clear Like floating over a rat race, nothing can touch me in this place Like floating over a rat race, nothing can touch me in this place So many chances, left in trances, leave it all behind, walk away blind A deep breath, the warm sun on my face Takes me away, to outer space Shadows disappear, hopes are all now clear Like floating over a rat race, nothing can touch me in this place Like floating over a rat race, nothing can touch me in this place

Light Up the Sky 05:19

How do we start this thing over Are we too far to turn back There’s no certainty in tomorrow Let’s live today like today, like it’s our last I will try my best, Make it past this test, All we have is time You can take my hand, soon you’ll understand, That love is not blind There’s a new fire burning in our eyes With the air we breathe let’s light up the sky We can find new meaning in today Change the face in the mirror This is our chance to take No time to waste and no more fear I will try my best, Make it past this test, All we have is time You can take my hand, soon you’ll understand, That love is not blind There’s a new fire burning in our eyes With the air we breathe let’s light up the sky (Instrumental) I will try my best, Make it past this test, All we have is time You can take my hand, soon you’ll understand, That love is not blind There’s a new fire burning in our eyes With the air we breathe let’s light up the sky There’s a new fire burning in our eyes With the air we breathe let’s light up the sky Light up the sky…

Silent Scream 03:42
lyrics

I look ahead Many paths I see Some roads are dead Others drown in the sea I will take you down If you follow me It's dark with no sound Except a silent scream Your thump of your heart Makes your voice freeze You can hear my steps But you can't see me The black fills your breath On this hollow journey I will take you down If you follow me It's dark with no sound Except a silent scream Your thump of your heart Makes your voice freeze Take your rest Sleep now Drift off and dream Let your heart pound It's dark with no sound Except a silent scream Your thump of your heart Makes your voice freeze

Push 03:50
lyrics

This place feels dark Dead ends all around Looking to fill the void My conscience holds me down Push me away I'm out of place My hope's wearing thin I don't want to give in Tired of feeling used Steps break on my ladder Sunk into the bottom No money doesn't matter Push me away I'm out of place My hope's wearing thin I don't want to give in The rain turns to nails My skin moves to pale I'm pinned to the core I can't take any more Push me away I'm out of place My hope's wearing thin I don't want to give in

White Owl Wednesday 06:11
lyrics
buy track
He fell into a hole one night Within our realm he was trapped Lost in our noise, he didn’t cry In our silence, we heard him scratch His night eyes fell away Tomorrow would light the way Coming for him that Wednesday The owl cried whoooooooooooooo are you Are you looking for someone to save White feathers fell to the floor He flew free, bittersweet, Wednesday He couldn’t get there on his own A gentle voice and transient eyes In my hands he opened my soul He was our blessing in disguise His night eyes fell away The sunlight showed him the way He spread his wings on that Wednesday The owl cried whoooooooooooooo are you Are you looking for someone to save White feathers fell to the floor He flew free, bittersweet, Wednesday Bridge (Solo/Instrumental) He brought us hope and patience Not just an owl, a lesson of faith The owl cried whoooooooooooooo are you Are you looking for someone to save White feathers fell to the floor He flew free, bittersweet, Wednesday

Media Whore 02:52
lyrics
buy track
They take a tragic story And make it floods the news Mold it to fit the agenda Twist and turn and stretch the truth Soon you’ll all be in a frenzy With blinders on, they lie through you Tell you what they want you to hear Push through ‘til it bleeds out your ears It’s time to break out of their mold Don’t let your mind or soul be sold Give them nothing to say... Worst story told with a smile Exploit evil to encourage more Keeps them perched on a throne So killers feel like lords It’s time they tell both sides Let good even up the score Tell you what they want you to hear Push through ‘til it bleeds out your ears It’s time to break out of their mold Don’t let your mind or soul be sold Give them nothing to say... 1-2-3 Here we go! Why? Why? Stop the lies! Give them nothing to say! Tell you what they want you to hear Push through ‘til it bleeds out your ears It’s time to break out of their mold Don’t let your mind or soul be sold Give them nothing to say... Nothing to say!

Awake to the Screaming 05:21
lyrics
buy track
Awake to the screaming Are you only dreaming This time Fake... All your stories Are lies When it's working you feel so alive While it's eating all that was close to your life I'm running in circles I'm fading in darkness This cure isn't working The body is withered and ready to die I want you to cut me and peel out what's dead inside I wanna feel nothing for the rest of this ride I wonder how you hide the shame so well Lay there, softly weeping, It's scary to live in hell I'm running in circles I'm falling through darkness Your cure isn't working this time The body is withered now waiting to die I'd like you to cut me and rip out what's inside I wanna feel guilty for what's left of this life I'm coming to get you one last time And the cycle starts again I'm running in circles I'm falling through darkness Your cure isn't working (this time) I want you to tear me apart from the inside For today, I'm painting on my smile But really I'm just so very tired I'm just so very tired

I am humble, aware, and strong Breathing out each weakness Understanding right from wrong I am abandoning fear and doubt In a world of uncertainty Gravity pulls me down My hope will overshadow your greed My love of life will make your hate bleed I am not alone Keep casting your stones I will fly fly fly into the unknown I love the person that I am Unashamed of my choices Unafraid of your evil plans I surround myself with love As waves crash against me I move past and rise above My hope will overshadow your greed My love of life will make your hate bleed I am not alone Keep casting your stones I will fly fly fly into the unknown [Instrument break] My voice comes from within... Not meant for selfish reasons It's meant for inspiration Messages of hope To let everyone know You can fly fly fly into the unknown

Can't Take the Fight 04:18
lyrics
buy track
It was just another Day Walking side-by-side We were preparing a new way When the path went blind My eyes went black I awoke on my back I got to get to the others And help them take cover I can't move It was my will to survive It was just my mission I will sacrifice my life For my brothers and sisters I stand tall In the face of defeat Left with no regret Can't take the fight from me I was broken but still fighting Cause lying next to me Was a hero almost dying Where I led the rescue team In the helicopter flying Is this all just a dream We found each other's fists Through struggles unseen We live on… It was my will to survive It was just my mission I will sacrifice my life For my brothers and sisters I stand tall In the face of defeat Left with no regret Can't take the fight from me Thanks to you! We are free! It was my will to survive It was just my mission I will sacrifice my life For my brothers and sisters I stand tall In the face of defeat Left with no regret Can't take the fight from me

Forsake Me 04:19
lyrics

It's so easy, to forsake me, when I, hide, Behind, this thick wall, no it won't fall, or lie It's so easy, to forsake me, when I, hide Behind, this thick wall, no it won't fall, built on fake dreams and lies What do you see, when you look at me I want a place, apart from what you see My shell! Is cracking again I try! So hard to let you in It's so easy, to forsake me, when I, hide, Behind, this thick wall, no it won't fall, or lie It's so easy, to forsake me, when I, hide Behind, this thick wall, no it won't fall, built on fake dreams and lies I shed my skin, bear my inner core I start to blur, and you try to ignore Abandoned! And left alone My doom! Within will grow It's so easy, to forsake me, when I, hide, Behind, this thick wall, no it won't fall, or lie It's so easy, to forsake me, when I, hide Behind, this thick wall, no it won't fall, built on fake dreams and lies You forsake me, it comes easy, so I, lie Inside, my mind, it won't stop or hide It's a battle, in a war, raging on, inside And I am, lost in a maze, of walls, falling all around my eyes Listen to me, listen to me (you don't) Listen to me, listen to me (you don't) Listen to me, listen to me (you don't) Listen to me, listen to me!
