Verse 1
Contradiction, it's an expedition into darkness Aggrevation is the inspiration into madness Pre Chorus Soon the day will come, when all the world will finally see It's the matter of time, the sand will run out WAITING FOR THE RISING SUN!! Chorus Erase the slate, Erase the slate Verse 2 My Religion is a mind condition as it turns out Aggitating while my soul keeps waiting to my black out Pre Chorus Soon the day will come, when I'll reflect on all those years My perfect world, sublime and subreal WAITING FOR THE RISING SUN!! Chorus Erase the slate, Erase the slate, Erase the slate, Erase the slate Bridge Time and time remember when Life forgave my call Too much pride could not be fed Can't escape it all Chorus Erase the slate (x5) |

Talk to me 'bout fantasy
You talk to me 'bout love You filled me with empty promises You promised sky above You ask me what I'd do for you Give my life and more But would it keep you satisfied Baby I'm not sure I change myself most everyday But you don't reply How can we survive I can't change the world If I tried would it make you happy I can't change the world This timei can't change the world From soft lips you speak to me How's it gonna be Everyday's a different story Changing all the time You come to me with promises I listen as you speak But the promise that you want the most Is not for me to keep You leave me on this withered vine / now Stripped away and torn Left with only fantasy Dreams of nevermore I can't change the world If I tried would it make you happy This timei can't change the world Never said that I held the answers I can't change the world I'd give my spirit if you tried A fortune lost a heart denied I come to you in your sleep My heart is yours for only you to keep And when the days they pass me you will see I can't change the world If I tried would it make you happy I can't change the world This time I can't change the world I never said I held the answers I can't change the world This time I can't change the world Change the world |

Talking to my rabbit friend he seems so bright indeed
A conversation over tea Then he told me / I'm standing all alone There's a crowd of people eating at my throne Is it just me / is it just you Or is it everyone I want the ordinary life When the sky is dark I feel like it's light I want the ordinary life I must confess / I'm the maddest hatter Of them all And it's so contrary that I know I shouldn't Watch the rainbows circle my friend mary I wish that I could fly so I can see much more I wish that I could see things Like the others do If it's just me / then it's just you I'm not the only one I want the ordinary life When the sky is dark I feel like it's light I want the ordinary life I must confess / I'm the maddest hatter Of them all I want the ordinary I wanna be with my friend mary I want the ordinary life When the sky is dark I feel like it's light I want the ordinary life I must confess / I'm the maddest hatter Of them all I want the ordinary life When the sky is dark I feel like it's light I want the ordinary life I must confess / I'm the maddest hatter Of them all |

I been left in the crossfire / sacrificed to love and hate
Out of ammunition to regain my mental state I found myself adrift upon an endless sea Of lies and bitterness / horizon out of reach I see the starts that shine / reflection in the waves I need to find that distant shore Before I drown Slip beneath the waves and drown Takes me to my grave Of love and heartache / there's got to be a way That I can save myself before I drown Too much conversation can erode our little minds My emancipation comes with solitude at night As the world sleeps / I contemplate all that's been done I profess no innocence / I've held - held that smoking gun I found myself atop a sea of ocean blue Cast from a world that left me too To drown Slip beneath the waves and drown Takes me to my grave Of love and heartache / there's got to be a way That I can save myself before I drown I'll drown Slip beneath the waves and drown Takes me to my grave And drown From the pouring rain Of love and heartache / there's got to be a way I can save myself Save myself before I drown |

Lonely / why do I feel this way
If you're so in love with me / why do you stay away Heartache / breaking down my pride The closer that I get to you the more I hurt inside Feeling I've been wrong about you Try to justify I'm feeling empty inside I see the heartache you hide in your eyes I'm feeling empty inside Shattered Shattered / trying to get to you Left my heart in broken pieces / haven't been so true Leave me / in my barren world When I try to give you all I hear the cry of love There's no words and there's no time for All the reasons why I'm feeling empty inside I see the heartache you hide in your eyes I'm feeling empty inside Shattered I'm feeling empty inside I see the heartache you hide in your eyes I'm feeling empty inside Shattered Spoken word: yellow walls / I light another cigarette Rainbow dreams crossing through my eyes Shattered pictures in my mind Love lost / lorn Shattered / shattered / shattered / yeah |

Can you see the soul / through a window in your mind
Can you see the darkness that was left me over time Bordering on sadness / no tranquility Look through my mirror and you'll see [so long] a vision come and gone [inside] nothing was clear Saving grace / forgotten road I was lost / but now I'm home Saving grace / a ray of hope When I hear a voice of the soul Sold my religion / sold my candles too Knees have been bleeding / praying over you I search the heavens / all I ever see Dust from the ashes / misery [rise up] sleeping with misfortune [temptation] a mirror of myself Saving grace / forgotten road I was lost / but now I'm home Saving grace / a ray of hope When I hear a voice of the soul When the light shines above me And casts a shadow of myself Look to skies that surround me Embrace the one that speaks inside Delivered unto self Saving grace a ray of hope When I hear the voice [of the soul] [voice of the soul] Saving grace [voice of the soul] When I hear the voice Hear the voice of the soul |

I lit a candle in your honor today
Prayed for forgiveness for the things that I said And now I wake up and see I was wrong All those years wasted / now come and gone How many years have I been this way The lines grow deeper / time fades away Now etched in stone don't have the strength anymore To break down these walls again I lit a candle in your honor today Everything will come around again And you never know that maybe someday Everything will come around again Now I see you on the other side Sunshine raining down upon your face You look so beautiful that place where you live You walk among your dreams we talked about So I stand here and I stare In my garden of neglect Never noticed it before That it's winter all the time Was too busy staring at Your garden that you grew in time I can see it took a lot of years Your colors fill my mind I lit a candle in your honor today Everything will come around again And you never know that maybe someday Everything will come around again Even though the years keep passing / I reflect About the one I truly loved and pushed away Suddenly I stop and feel That winter rain I know so well And close my eyes Wish you all the best And you never know I lit a candle in your honor today Everything will come around And you never know that maybe someday Everything will come around I lit a candle in your honor today Prayed for forgiveness for the things that I said And you never know that maybe someday Everything will come around |
