We hold steady with the nightfall, yet it flows out again You hold silent by the deep end, just a thin wire, you fall in I keep centered on the pavement, breathe out, let my mind sink in You toe the wire every night fall, take a deep breath, hold it in You say it, with every breath you waste Just can’t get out of your way until you hear those words you say again What a waste, never thought I‘d see the day Keep spilling the shit you say again and again and again Here's to silence… No more silence… We hold steady with the nightfall, yet it flows out again You hold silent by the deep end, just a thin wire, you fall in I keep centered on the pavement, breathe out, let my mind sink in You toe the wire every night fall, take a deep breath, hold it in Burning up, from the inside, want to feel alive Patience now, just realize, shouldn’t wait the line Burning up, from the inside, want to feel alive Patience now, just realize, shouldn’t wait the line Tensions rise, heads will fall Another ship, meets the shore Tensions Rise, heads will fall Another Ship meet the shore We hold steady with the nightfall, yet it flows out again You hold silent by the deep end, just a thin wire, you fall in I keep centered on the pavement, breathe out, let my mind sink in You toe the wire every night fall, take a deep breath, hold it in We hold steady with the nightfall, yet it flows out again (Burning up, from the inside, want to feel alive) You hold silent by the deep end, just a thin wire, you fall in (Patience now, just realize, shouldn’t wait the line( I keep centered on the pavement, breathe out, let my mind sink in (Burning up, from the inside, want to feel alive) You toe the wire every night fall, take a deep breath, hold it in (Patience now, just realize, shouldn’t wait the line)

Wake up early it’s another day Oh there's pain in these walls if you’re listening Rise with the sun, but it’s not shining in We bricked all the doors I was the last one in I read your letters, on the drive that night Still holding on to Holding on, to the light… These broken pieces, still belong to me To make right To make this all, alright Well now it's nothing but just a game again Push and shove, yeah that's your way again To show love, to show love…. Wake up early it’s another day Oh there's pain in these walls if you’re listening Rise with the sun, but it’s not shining in We bricked all the doors I was the last one in I burned your letters, on the drive last night Still holding on to Holding on, to the light… Well now it's nothing but just a game again Push and shove, yeah that's your way again To show love, to show love…. For everytime I try to catch you in a lie you see me playing with nothing to lose but then wait, I play you Well now it's nothing but just a game again Push and shove, yeah that's your way again To show love, to show love…. Well now it's nothing but just a game again Push and shove, yeah that's your way again To show love, to show love….

(Shaken from her touch, Shaking for her love) Taken away Pushed it away, like the dawn The cold I’m not afraid For I feel it, in her arms When is it enough, there’s never quite enough to make this… real (Shaken from her touch, Shaking for her love) Breaking away Away, past the dawn Tied and locked in a frame Stolen, now gone… When is it enough, there’s never quite enough to make this… real (Shaken from her touch, Shaking for her love) Take this mind, and guide it home Shaking from the moment, with your thoughts alone Beside him.. beside them... I’ll see your face again, in my head… When is it enough, there’s never quite enough to make this… real (Shaken from her touch, Shaking for her love)

Deadbirds 03:58
Taken by the night, between the lights and the shadows Don’t waste another breath, hold your tongue and just swallow Your pride… Got to hold on tight... (We won't even try, Dreams can’t even die...) You’re risking more than life, with every minute you follow That lump lump is rising up, you’re trying hard to swallow Your pride… Got to hold on tight… (We won't even try, Dreams can’t even die...) Voices from the back, Creeping with your step Chills crawling down your skin with the shadows that you pass Now don’t give a glance, Maybe we’ve got a chance By walking with your head held high Now there is no turning back, pressed against the wall We question right or left, The night can make you small So where’s your will to fight, unbreakable You see, now my pride is on the line… Now you, Can’t take me No you, Can’t make me Another time, another time, next time…

Fasten and Adjust, Bracing for whatever comes, won’t have it any other way Turn your fader levels up, Counting down the seconds left before we get… Carried Away… Tonight we’re so carried away We leave all our fears behind No phasers set to stun No remedy for high speed, this vanity’s for no one So turn you fader levels up Couniting down the seconds left before I get…. Shaking off the dust, Shaking from the pain and cuts n’ this alcohol inside me Turn your fader levels up Turn your faders up, light the fire deep inside me… Carried Away… Tonight we get carried away Before we get carried away, Tonight we get carried away leave all our fears behind This pain and love, is always on my mind Now I open my eyes from behind the wheel This road keeps going The winds and the turns I plow right through Through Them straight ahead

Follow the lights, That fade at night To the crimson sky, they will shine… Follow the lights, That fade at night To the crimson sky, they will shine... Another spark lost out into the night again A knotted phone line tied me to the bead We are just coins left swimming in the fountain Chasing the same dream but we’re tired of running Hiding in plain sight but you can’t see within Don’t speak their name or what they might have been Throw all your coins in the fountain…. Follow the lights, That fade at night To the crimson sky, they will shine… Shadows stretched out from an open door A knotted phone line tied me to the floor We are just coins left swimming in the fountain Chasing the same dream but we’re tired of running A window opens but you can’t see within Don’t speak their name or what they might have been Throw all your coins in the fountain…. Follow the light…. Follow the light…. Follow the lights, That fade at night To the crimson sky, they will shine… Follow the lights, That fade at night To the crimson sky, they will shine...

Panic! 03:46
Behind the black curtain is not the light Though the flame is only the ether of the shadow to the night Do not let the shadows fool your mind Do not shield your eyes to the darkness of the night Do not let the shadows fool your mind (Daylight wake, wake me..) I don’t mean this to sound less than worried, but are you breaking apart? Someday we’ll be more than buried left with nothing, but the dark... Do not shield your eyes to the darkness of the night Do not let the shadows fool your mind Behind the black curtain is not the light Though the flame is only the ether of the shadow to the night Do not let the shadows fool your mind (Daylight wake, wake me..) Yeah nothing is quite necessary, but here we are, play the part… Rewind all the times in your mind, while you’re alone, in the dark. So take a breath until your feeling steady, you’re gonna fall, From above Inside you might feel something crawling. Is it just fear, or is it real? I have brought you here to see…. Panic in my mind, I keep falling far behind Climbing for a way out that steeper everytime Panic in my mind, I keep falling far behind Climbing for a way out that steeper everytime Time… Time…. Time… Time… (Daylight wake, wake me..) I don’t mean this to sound less than worried, but are you breaking apart? Someday we’ll be more than buried, left with nothing, but the dark…

These thin walls with no quiet place the sound within could drown outer space we would, cross wires till the speakers break this was home for now, but no place to stay I used to, pack things out on the fore escape as a hide away, or just in case... we might set fire to this stage yeah it's home for now, but it's no place to stay watch the rain wash down the street like a fading dream Take all of this we won't need it back wait for some wish just to walk in, another time… “Tell me about growing up Do you remember where you used to live? What was it like there, what was the best part about it? I bet you can’t remember…” Watch the rain wash down the street like a fading dream Take all of this we won't need it back wait for some wish just to walk in, another time… “Let’s go back to the beginning Can you remember that far? Tell me about this place There’s not much left, is there? Where’s your home?” Take all of this we won't need it back wait for some wish just to walk in, another time… Take all of this we won't need it back wait for some wish just to walk in, another time…

A Night Cap? 03:22
We don’t want to go, that's no lie Replay this memory back about 100 times When every evening ends with sunlight I close my eyes, breathe one last time You lift up our feelings When we’re, down... And defy their reasons To stay, out... Now when I think I lost my head Oh well I’m dreaming, you say there’s nothing wrong But when I say I think we crossed that line, Well am I dreaming, you said you’d never tell a lie You lift up our feelings When we’re, down... And defy their reasons To stay, out... Now I feel like, I’m lost... Don’t run, don’t hide While I lay here So lost... Unafraid, While my mind wanders…. You lift up our feelings When we’re, down... And defy their reasons To stay, out… You lift up our feelings When we’re, down... And defy their reasons To stay, out...

Still Waves 04:04
When we’re happy it shows, so stay happy… No…. Don’t lose that vision Just keep them guessing Give them your best side, don’t let the rest show Just use your best line, before the rest shows Oh I feel this ringing inside my head It drowns out the things we’d say So I go on and I play pretend Yeah, no one’s watching anyway A mere image, keeps everything spinning, till we break A mere image image keep everything spinning till we break When we’re happy it shows, so stay happy… No…. Still I can’t let this feeling go So it just get pushed, below Swallowed into a great unknown But where does this, all go…. A mere image, keeps everything spinning, till we break A mere image image keep everything spinning till we break When we’re happy it shows, so stay happy… No…. Don’t lose that vision Just keep them guessing Give them your best side, don’t let the rest show Just use your best line, before the rest shows Just keep them guessing Just use your best line, don’t let the rest show Oh I feel this ringing inside my head It drowns out the things we’d say So I just go on, and I play pretend Yeah, no one’s watching anyway

Broken Reel 03:48
Oh I feel, so numb Is this how it feels, not to feel What’s all, come undone Will this all become, Home Well I’ve held past before I’ve shut it out, and I’ve held it down, before Like a driving rain, or the howling wind Trying to bring me back down, to let thoughts flood back in Oh, I’ve held the past, before I can shut it out, I won’t let it in Now it’s time to learn... Time to grow It’s time to leave, The past alone Oh we forgot who we were, before What was something new, has gotten old, once more So lets take a drive, climb a mountain high Try to lift things back up, that fell by the wayside Oh we forgot who we were, before don’t shut it out, please let them in Now it’s time to learn... Time to grow It’s time to leave, The past alone Oh how I feel, so numb… This broken reel,can’t reveal, all that we’ve undone Oh how I feel, so numb... Is this how it feels, not to feel What’s all come undone
