A nightmare to remember
I'd never be the same. What began as laughter So soon would turn to pain. The sky was clear and frigid The air was thick and still Now I'm not one to soon forget And I bet I never will Picture for a moment The perfect irony A flawless new beginning Eclipsed by tragedy. The uninvited stranger Started dancing on his own So we said goodbye To the glowing bride And we made our way back home. Life was so simple then We were so innocent. Father and mother Holding each other. Without warning Out of nowhere Like a bullet From the night Crushing Glass Rubber and steel Scorching fire Glowing lights Screams of terror Pain and Fear Sounds of sirens Smoke in my eyes Sudden stillness Blackened silence No more screaming No more cries Stunned and bewildered Cold and afraid Torn up and broken Frightened and dazed Stunned and bewildered Cold and afraid Torn up and broken Frightened and dazed Lying on the table In this unfamiliar place I'm greeted by a stranger A man without a face He said, "Son, do you remember? Do you even know your name?" Then he shined a light into my eyes And said, "take this for the pain." Hopelessly drifting, Bathing in beautiful agony. I am endlessly falling, Lost in this wonderful misery. In peaceful sedation, I lay half awake And all of the panic inside starts to fade. Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony. "Tell me does this hurt you?" Said the faceless man. "Can you move all of your fingers? Can you try your best to stand?" I asked about the others Is everyone OK? He told me not to worry As he turned and looked away. Hopelessly drifting, Bathing in beautiful agony. I am endlessly falling, Lost in this wonderful misery. In peaceful sedation, I lay half awake And all of the panic inside starts to fade. Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony. Day after day And night after night Replaying the events Did they ever see the red light? Over and over Scene by scene Like a recurring nightmare haunting my dreams. How can you prepare for what would happen next? No son should ever have to see his father such a mess It's a miracle he lived It's a blessing no one died By the Grace of God above Everyone survived Life was so simple then We were so innocent. It will stay with us forever A nightmare to remember |

Let it out, let it out
내보내봐, 내보내봐 Fill the empty space 그 빈 공간을 채워봐 So insecure 너무나도 불안스러워 find the words 단어를 찾고 and let it out 그것을 내보내봐 Staring down, staring down 아래를 노려봐, 밑을 내려다봐 Nothing comes to mind 아무 것도 느껴지지가 않아 Find the place 자리를 찾아봐 turn the water into wine 물을 포도주로 바꾸어봐 But I feel I'm getting nowhere 하지만 난 아무것도 얻지 못하고 있음을 느껴 And I'll never see the end 아마 난 절대 끝을 볼 수 없을 것 같아 So I wither 그렇게 난 시들어버렸어 And render myself helpless 그리고 내 자신을 무기력하게 만들어버렸어 I give in 난 포기해버렸어 and everything is clear 그러자 모든 것이 선명해졌어 I breakdown 난 고장나버렸어 And let the story guide me 결국엔 이야기가 날 이끌어가게 했어 Turn it on 불을 켜봐 Turn it on 다시 켜봐 Let the feelings flow 감정이 흐르게 해보는 거야 Close your eyes 눈을 감아봐 See the ones you used to know 그리고 네가 알았던 사람들을 기억해봐 Open up 열어봐 Open up 한 번 열어봐 Don't struggle to relate 억지로 관계지으려고 하지 마 Lure it out 미끼로 낚아봐 Help the memory escape 기억이 탈출할 수 있게 도와줘봐 Still this barrenness consumes me 여전히 이 황폐함은 나를 갉아먹고 있어 And I feel like giving up 이제 난 포기할 것만 같은 기분을 느껴 So I wither 그렇게 난 시들어버렸어 And render myself helpless 그리고 내 자신을 무기력하게 만들어버렸어 I give in 난 포기해버렸어 and everything is clear 그러자 모든 것이 선명해졌어 I breakdown 난 고장나버렸어 And let the story guide me 결국엔 이야기가 날 이끌어가게 했어 I wither 난 시들어버렸어 And give myself away 그리고 내 모든 것을 드러내버렸어 Like reflections on the page 책장 위에 그려진 모습들과 마찬가지로 The world's what you create 이 세상도 네가 창조해간 거야 I drown in hesitation 망설임 속에 난 가라앉아 죽어가고 My words come crashing down 나의 단어들은 서로 충돌해 무너지고 있어 And all my best creations 나의 모든 최고의 창조물들이 Burning to the ground 불타올라 땅으로 돌아가고 있어 The thought of starting over 다시 시작해야 한다는 생각이 Leaves me paralyzed 날 완전히 정지시켜버렸지 Tear it out again 다시 한 번 찢어내자 Another one that got away 잘못된 또 다른 부분을.. So I wither 그렇게 난 시들어버렸어 And render myself helpless 그리고 내 자신을 무기력하게 만들어버렸어 I give in 난 포기해버렸어 and everything is clear 그러자 모든 것이 선명해졌어 So I wither 그렇게 난 시들어버렸어 And render myself helpless 그리고 내 자신을 무기력하게 만들어버렸어 I give in 난 포기해버렸어 and everything is clear 그러자 모든 것이 선명해졌어 I breakdown 난 고장나버렸어 And let the story guide me 결국엔 이야기가 날 이끌어가게 했어 I wither 난 시들어버렸어 And give myself away 그리고 내 모든 것을 드러내버렸어 Like reflections on the page 책장 위에 그려진 모습들과 마찬가지로 The world's what you create 이 세상 역시 네가 창조해간 거야 |

[X. Restraint]
Freedom calls my name Serenity keeps me sane Happiness -- it dulls the pain Honest to see my place Open to other ways Willingness to understand Justice but do not judge Courtesy for others' flaws Kindness -- it's not that hard Self-restraint of tongue and pen Inventory -- my daily friend Analysis let down your guard Look in the mirror What do you see? The shattered fortress That once bound me Faithful ascent, through darkest fires I've found the path to take me higher You're smart enough for me to trust go live your life now Just keep these steps in your life and you'll know how If you're not sure, ask yourself, "Have I done to them as I would have them do to me?" Look in the mirror What's that you see? The shattered fortress Fly now be free Faithful ascent, through darkest fires I've found the path to take me higher I once thought it better to be right But now I have finally seen the light Sometimes you've got to be wrong And learn from mistakes I live with serenity now Not self-righteous hate [XI. Receive] (Help me be a channel of Thy peace That where there is hatred, I may bring love; That where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness; That where there is discord, I may bring harmony; That where there is error, I may bring truth; That where there is doubt, I may bring faith) Now that you can see all you have done (That where there is despair, I may bring hope; That where there are shadows, I may bring light) It's time to take that step into the kingdom (That where there is sadness, I may bring joy) All your sins will help to make you strong (That I may seek rather to comfort, than to be comforted. That I may seek to understand than to be understood) And help you break right through the prison wall (That I may seek to love, rather than to be loved, for it is by self-forgetting that one finds, it is by forgiving that one is forgiven) Keep all of me, The desires that once burned me deep inside Help me live today And help to give me grace To carry out your ways I am ready, help me be all I can be I am ready, help guide me and keep me free [XII. Responsible] I am responsible when anyone, anywhere Reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there I am responsible when anyone, anywhere Reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there [Dedicated to Bill W. and all of his friends] |

Remember days of yesterday
How it flew so fast The two score and a year we had, I thought it would always last Those summer days and west coast dreams I wished would never end A young boy and his father, Idol and best friend I'll always remember Those were the best of times A lifetime together I'll never forget The morning shows on the radio The case of the missing dog Lying on the pillows at the old 812 Watching Harold and Maude The record shops, the stickball fields My home away from home And when we weren't together The hours on the phone I'll always remember Those were the best of times I'll cherish them forever The best of times But then came the call Our lives changed forever more "You can pray for a change But prepare for the end..." The fleeting winds of time Flying through each day All the things I should've done But time just slipped away Remember seize the day Life goes by in the blink of an eye With so much left to say These were the best of times I'll miss these days Your spirit lit my life each day Thank you for the inspiration Thank you for the smiles All the unconditional love That carried me for miles It carried me for miles But most of all thank you for my life These were the best of times I'll miss these days Your spirit lit my life each day My heart is bleeding bad But I'll be OK Your spirit guides my life each day |

Several years ago
In a foreign town Far away from home I met the Count of Tuscany A young eccentric man Bred from royal blood Took me for a ride Across the open countryside Get into my car Let's go for drive I love the way i feel uptight Just step inside Maybe you'll recall I kind of felt curious A character inspired by my brother's life Winding through the hills Seeing far behind On and on we drove Down narrow streets and dusty roads And last we came upon A picturesque estate On sprawling emerald hills An ancient world of times gone by Now let me introduce My brother A bitter gentleman - historian Sucking on his pipe Distinguished accent Making me uptight - no accident I- Want to stay alive Everything about this place just doesn't feel right I- I don't wanna die Suddenly I'm frightened for my life I- Want to say goodbye This could be the last time you see me alive I- I may not survive Knew it from the moment we arrived Would you like to see Our secret holy place? I come here late at night To pray to him by candle light Then viewing through the past I saw which is believed Still dressed in royal clothes A saint behind the altar History recalls During times of war Legend has been traced Stuck inside these castle walls Soldiers came to hide With barrels filled with wine Never to escape These tombs of old that's where they died Down the cellar stairs I disappear Like the angel's share The end is near Come and have a taste A rare vintage All the finest wines Improve with age I- Want to stay alive Everything about this place just doesn't feel right I- I don't wanna die Suddenly I'm frightened for my life I- Want to say goodbye This could be the last time you see me alive I- I may not survive Knew it from the moment we arrived Could this be the end? Is this the way I die? Sitting here alone No one by my side I don't understand I don't feel that I deserve this What did I do wrong? I just don't understand Give me one more chance Let me please explain It's all been circumstance I'll tell you once again It took me for a ride Promising a vast adventure Next thing that I know I'm frightened for my life Now wait a minute then That's not how it is You must be confused That isn't who I am Please don't be afraid I would never try to hurt you This is how we live Strange although it seems Please try to forgive The chapel and the Sade The soldiers in the wine The fables and the tales All handed through time Of course you're free to go Go and tell the world my story Tell about my brother Tell them about me The Count of Tuscany... |
