I'm under fire blood red sky
Underneath the war machine Fight for what's right don't ask why Just make the sacrifice Desensitized but my eyes Still recognize the pain Truth stark and real fight or die Retreat has no place in this game In the dark and under fire Believing our cause was justified Caught in the crosshairs condition dire Trying a case of do or die In the blink of an eye I took someone's life It's no wonder why I'm haunted by it still Bright Flickering light snubbed by my numbing hands Don't understand One finger slip and it's over for him All's fair in war so they say But later as I try to sleep I just can't help but replay When I sat in as deity Was this man a loving father? Was this man an only son? Though it was one of us or the other I don't feel like the lucky one In the blink of an eye I took someone's life It's no wonder why I'm haunted every night I still hear his cries And think about his wife and his kids And all that he could have been If only we'd have been friends In a blink of an eye: |

I'm not alone
There are millions who are just like me Is our life our own Or are we breed to think everything's fine? Just another ant in the line I don't want to be One more calf who's suckling the cash cow Dressed like a corporate freak Begging the clock to give me the chance to be me A few moments just to be free Swallow the lie just to get by but I'm sick of this bag of feed Try to hide but it feels like you're caught in a landslide When dreams die you can chalk it all up to the Monday Blame it all on Monday Friday feels all right: you think you got all night Saturday is great but then it gets to late When Sunday comes around It brings you right back down dreading Monday And all of what used to define you Serves only just to remind you Of the man you'd hoped to be I can't believe I'm on the clock and wearing a monkey suit Where is my dream? You know the one where I'm up on a stage I guess I'm missing that page Take a quick look, glance through the book before I'm put back in my cage Shed your skin the transformation begins Chalk outline and the finger points to a Monday The only suspect is Monday And all of what used to defined you Serves only just to remind you Of the man you'll never be I'm not alone mindless masses trapped just like me Busy little drones day in day out we're all pawns for the queen I guess it's how it will be Chained to my desk just like the rest who have surrendered their dreams |

I was set loose as a child
To find my way out in the wild Feel asleep inside a cage And woke up in the middle age I felt like I was living a lie And had to escape it all With mortal fears I shaved off the years And went from a walk to a crawl I know I'm reaping what I sown But I never thought I'd die alone I guess I signed up for this fate By sowing the seeds of hate And when I finally shook the phase I was lost and miles away Got to hard to turn around I'd left no bread crumbs on the ground I felt like I should have apologized But that was so overdue And by your eyes, knew I was despised I guess I was afraid of you I know I'm reaping what I've sown But I never thought I'd die alone I guess I signed up for this fate By sowing the seeds of hate So please believe this will that you read That I thought of you everyday I grant to you my hollow legacy Please don't live your life this way I know I'm reaping what I've sown But I never thought I'd die alone I guess I signed up for this fate By sowing the seeds of hate |

I'll lead the way, let's follow the sun
Be on our way envied by everyone Our bags are all packed, a breeze starts to blow, the winds at our back, are you ready to go? I'll lead the way, let's follow the sun Oh, the last time we traveled we labored so hard but drifted so far from home Yeah, the search is our battle, can we ever find what we want... Let's take a chance and follow the sun Dare to dance, the music has just begun Step after step, cleansing our souls, cathartic release, making us whole Let's take a chance and follow the sun Oh, the last time we traveled we labored so hard but drifted so far from home Yeah, the search is our battle though we stumble and fall, it's only a bump in the road Oh, the more time unravels, the older we are but the less we seem to know Our resolve is rattled You would think we'd know better by now... |

And there you were beside me in the middle of the crowd
It took so long to find me while I cried to you out loud It seemed like forever I was so alone I thought I'd never find home I was stumbling in the darkness I was living underground Now I'm standing in the sunlight Basking in this love I've found It's the first breath of a baby It's the warmth of a touch I'm giving you my vow I'll say it here and now Nothing I could do could mean as much I savor every moment I hang on every word It's rapture just to touch you The world becomes a blur I'm a better man with you Than I was by myself and when I kiss you can tell It's finding what you're after It's what it's meant to be When I hear your laughter And when you look at me It's like living in a daydream It's like heaven here on earth I don't have much to give but as long as I shall live I give to you my heart for what it's worth I was drowning in an ocean A lost soul set adrift I was wandering in the desert I was stepping off a cliff I was hanging by a heartstring I was just about to slip When you came to my rescue and gave to me the ultimate gift It's a feeling of completness It's half that now whole Now I see forever when you look into my soul It's a drug I've never taken It's like walking throught the clouds Words cannot describe just how I feel inside Because of who you are I'm free somehow It's finding what you're after It's what it's meant to be When I hear your laughter And when you look at me It's like living in a daydream It's like heaven here on earth I don't have much to give but as long as I shall live I give to you my heart for what it's worth |

Running out of time
But I still don't try I can hardly breathe when you don't come around Thought I'd write it down Did then threw it out Reality is the pill and you help me choke it down Stay my cure for vanity Stay my source of laughter My broken record remedy Stay my everafter I don't say enough And I never lose my bluff But you, you can shell an oyster with nothing but a stare Stay my cure for vanity Stay my source of laughter My broken record remedy Stay my everafter |

Did everybody spit upon you
God dealt a card you didn't ask for Are you the one they throw the change to While the other hand locks the door What are you in for What if I could rise and take this mat with me And what if I had eyes that couldn't help but see And what if I could fly, why not it's never going to be So tell what are you accused of That you should be incarcerated Can you endure a life with no love Or is this a life at all What are you in for What if I could rise and take this mat with me And what if I had eyes that couldn't help but see And what if I could fly, why not it's never going to be He put berries on a vine, stirred waves into the sea He put planets in a line, but he didn't finish me He made day time and the night, so you'd appreciate the sun Am I the darkness to your light, so that you'll be glad you're one Of the lucky ones with all your sanity to spare So keep pretending not to see me, I'll keep pretending not to care What if I could rise and take this mat with me And what if I had eyes that couldn't help but see And what if I could fly, why not it's never going to be |
