First Breath 04:12
How long's it been since I've seen the sun? Only horizon 'cause I've just begun. I'll be my witness, there are no more. I can remember if I reach the shore.

Trials 06:58
I'm gonna sail tomorrow Gonna sail away I have to leave my sorrow You know I can't delay I have my paper to write on Even though I don't know what I'll say tonight My eyes all worn Come by and waste some time Our time faltered What's yours is yours and also mine I thought I could go but then I reached the plateau 'Cause I'm blind Blind I just can't reach it There's no where else left to go I've got to sail tomorrow find a way to survive, there's no way There's no way to go with them Just biding my time everyday I'm not serving If I'm gonna survive then there's no way Coming with me I just pray that someday we'll okay I thought I could go but then I reached the plateau Because I'm blind Blind I just can't reach it There is no where else left to go Open carefully Let them down softly Come with me We are fine We must come to the conclusion that we may never become what we have dreamed

Mind 06:12
I don't mind Close my eyes and I slowly drift away I am free to choose if I will stay Deep within I know it will decay I don't mind While in a world Nothing seems as it was once before Nothing's come of it I won't lie To you or myself I can't deny Exactly how I felt To be free in another world I don't mind Live my way It's all sold To be free in your heart You have to find another way I don't mind Close my eyes and I slowly drift away

Just Play 03:12
When I was young I barely knew you but then you came in like a fire For once I felt like I knew truth I had all that I would require And you were there all of my days And you I would just play As time went on I got to know you You told your secrets to me I thought that we would travel the world But none of that ever came to be There were times that I felt betrayed but even then we would just play As I got old you nearly left me as my thoughts drifted other ways But through it all you've never left my side You'll be there 'till the end of days And now as night falls I feel okay 'cause you and I will just play
5.
Bell Curve 04:12
I tried to stand tall I listened to it all but I know yeah, I know you never, ever heard a thing I remember from days gone past I never thought this would last Now I know You'll never grow The bell curve has taken you That's all you'll ever know Brainless Mind too slow Left side of the bell curve Give me peace

The Choice 05:32
In the night the darkness grows crawling through my world I had to see the falling light but I don't want to see no more I stranger speaks of fearful lies spreading fearful warnings but the fear he seeks to spread comes from self-taught mourning He tries to seek, to justify This can't be how it is Confusion, doubt within his mind And now the choice is his In the morning the mirror breaks shattered memories lost And we see that those who wait Will find the truth within their hearts 'Cause there's a choice that we all make each and everyday The end result is all the same but we must find our own way I can see the burning, churning deep within his soul And now I fear the world will wait to see which way he'll go He tries to seek, to justify this can't be how it is Confusion, doubt within his mind but now the choice is his
8.
War inside more whimpering you're too far gone Poor soul, you're dead inside dwell upon the things you've undergone I extend but no one can deny you False pride but not defeated Not sorry, but miserable Cold, blank, bleak You hold it in like a remedy Blood, ire, fear A song of dread is your melody Now it's time to kill Kill all the wounds and the memories 'cause it's time to dance A line in the sand 'cause I ain't going back I've come to understand I'll fend off all attacks Another weapon but whether we'll see the light It's got to happen Someday I'll make it right I've run away and I'm never coming back So far away to another world Don't try to follow I ain't going back
9.
Never thought I'd see another war Are we safe? Will you stay another day? I know you're feeling rather poor What's to say I don't know what to say. I know the reason's unsure but I've got to say take it slow to another day You don't sing anymore Did it fade? Forget the war, I got to say. Didn't want to see another war Didn't want to see another hideaway You and me will hit the highway You and me will live for another day We will see the end of it all We will sing for the world And what I've seen beyond all this We will live another day So promise me in your heart Don't let your thoughts turn to gray Remain here and now in this world Promise me that you'll stay
10.
Things get lost along the way You were gonna save the world, but not today And when you said that you were going away again I shook my head 'cause we both know, my friend That the cross you bear the things you swear your never-ending warfare will ground you to this place. Your lack of grace in a constant chase to nowhere Here I am waiting on you again I can't but help but wonder if I've overspent Could it be me in how the way things turned out? Just give me a sign 'cause I'll be fine, I have no doubt I don't see another choice 'cause I could scream until I lose my voice As you slowly lose your mind in time, I hope you realize that it's not worth fighting for.

Calm 04:27
Feeling dust inside my bones I just want to be back in my home My head is tired, my eyes will break All this work I've done is for our sake Before I sleep, I sing this song Just remember to keep your calm Wonder is overtaking me As I close my eyes, now I see
