Battle
04:11
|
|||
Over the ocean
Mountains come out of the sea
A thousand crusaders
Searchin’ for the enemy
Stand and fight
Til the battle is won
Everything changes
The moment you are under fire
All of your demons
Can never take the place of desire
Stand your ground
Til the battle is won
Ships on the rise
Heading west into the mid-day sun
Souls will be lost
Like the land of those who cross
Only forgiveness
Can ever make a warrior cry
Haunted by nightmares
The innocent are alibis
Hold your ground
Til the battle is won

Refuse
03:55
|
|||
A shadow cruises in the pool behind the rock
Cannot feel my fingers, it is barely 8 o’clock.
Obsession for no reason, feeds a well of raw desire
Hey there, Mister Big...where the current intersects
See the drift delicious, spitting image of the usual suspects
Maybe, just this once discretion gives it up for valor
Jump the gun
Swing for the home-run
Don’t let some sad old memory kill your instinct to pursue
cause when the past slips away
what remains is new
We are defined by the things
We refuse to do
Hey there, Mister Big...we have been down this road before
Two leaps, an aerial release...we both know the score
Tomorrow is another day
and I’ll be back for more
Jump the gun
Swing for the home-run
Don’t let that kill-joy next to you, try to tell you what to do
cause when the past slips away
What remains is new
We are defined by the things,
We refuse to do

Trip the Light
04:44
|
|||
Breathe, under fire
Don’t give up, find the line
I can’t see, what you see in me sometimes
Don’t you know that I’m just about to lose my mind
Trip the Light
Don’t take the road inside
You’ve got to lose your way
To work it out
Darkness falls
Upon the strongest minds
You’ve got to keep you eyes
Beyond the dawn
Try, to remember
What gave in, to get you there
Don’t you feel, what you think you feel….to be.
I can’t say, what you think, you, feel, for me.
Why give in
To let your soul break free
You’ve got to read the writing
On the stone
Trip the Light
To dance into the sky
Don’t look behind the past
To find your mind
Trip the Light
Don’t take the road inside
You’ve got to lose your way
To work it out
Darkness falls
Upon the strongest minds
You’ve got to keep your eyes
Beyond the dawn

Eddard
03:40
|
|||
Eddard, stumbled into camp that night
By the fading firelight
Wounded in a knife fight
Blue steel flashes, bullets fly
In for a dime, in for a dollar
We never got to know
Busted brake lights
Danger to the common good
Shoot first, questions later
Segregated neighborhood
Judge declares a mistrial
Jury of his peers is hung
And it’s a fine line
It’s a fine fine line
It’s a fine line between the cops and the robbers
The law of the smoking gun
Eddard, riding shotgun to the sun
Cowboy angel on patrol
Flexing his immortal soul
Like a diamond in the sky
Mystery waits, there to define
And it’s a fine line
It’s a fine fine line
It’s a fine line between the cops and the robbers
The law of the smoking gun
It’s a fine line
It’s a fine fine line
It’s a fine line between hope and the carnage done
The law of the smoking gun
The law of the smoking gun
The law of the smoking gun

Cast It Down
03:35
|
|||
You take a step, I take a step
Together we can climb
You look away, I look away
We never know, we find
Dark and light can hold the future
If you can let go of your past
Cast it down
Let it be found
Find your way
Don’t take it round
All you know
Tear it apart
Hold on
Let go
You see yourself, inside yourself
It’s like a mirror in time
Reflect the light, to find the light
Unlike the perfect crime
Fallen castles under water
Can quickly bring you to your knees
Cast it down
Don’t make a sound
Lose your way
All will be found
Let it go
Try to break free
Hold on
Cast it down
Let it be found
Find your way
Don’t take it round
All you know
Tear it apart
Hold on
Let go

Jackie
04:06
|

Dark, cold and cunning
Jackie walked into the room
She carried a loaded gun inside her sleeve
Down and out
She was driven to take the aggressive route
She walked up to her lover, and told him it was time leave
Out in the alley
Jackie told him what she knew
Business trips to Portugal don’t lie
Fallen down
She was never going to let him make a sound
She grabbed him by the collar, and told him it was time to die
Tight, too tight
She cuffed him and crowned him down
Told him everything was going to be all right
What he did
Didn’t mean anything at all
He had only lost his mind
Jackie took her pistol
And she aimed it at his head
He knew his life was over, as he cried
Done and gone
He was never gonna change his wayward song
But Jackie let him go, she couldn’t pull the trigger in time

Football Trick

Here, we are again
4th and long, game is on the line...
Glory, is in my hands
with my friend, who I can depend on
Now, the whistle blows
the ball is snapped,
and I am trapped in a bad dream
Hey, Charlie Brown, kick it one more time
This time I’ll hold it straight and true
What goes around comes back again
It’s the game we’ll be playing in the end
Why, eve-ry time,
do you smile, and say its different
Black curls, in your hair
make me stare, I become stupid
They say, insanity
just repeats
the same thing over and over
Hey, Charlie Brown, kick it one more time
This time I’ll hold it straight and true
What goes around comes back again
It’s the game we’ll be playing in the end
Time, loops and spins
Cycling sins, and forgiveness
Still you have faith, that she will place
it on the tee
The play,
Is the same,
But the game, stakes get higher and higher
Hey, Charlie Brown, kick it one more time
This time I’ll hold it straight and true
What goes around comes back again
It’s the game we’ll be playing in the end

Drive
04:00
|
|||
The sun rides high on the western sky
Waves roll in from the sea
Drifting back to forgotten shores
The road ahead is calling me
Drive into the vertical horizon
Until you can see
What there is to see
Don’t look down until you can be certain
What your finding out
Is what the soul’s about
Wind and rain comin’ down
Keep your head above your darkest fears and
Drive
Fortune smiles upon the strongest will
But only time can heal the pain
Fallen down we all get up again
Unless we lose, to find our way
Drive into the vertical horizon
Until you can see
What there is to see
Don’t look down until you can be certain
What your finding out
Is what the soul’s about
Wind and rain comin’ down
Keep your head above your darkest fears and
Drive

Bust It Up
05:35
|
|||
Jimmy got a race car
it was number one, gold star, on his Christmas List
Took it out the box,
set it on the floor, and smashed it with his fist
Wanted you…for a year, now you’re here…
Find, I’d bury you like a bone
So he ran it off the roof, into a ditch, where it crashed among the stones
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go…
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go...
Leonard lived with Susie,
but he went out on a Tuesday with Charlene
What's a bit of foolery,
with a friend, and a getaway that's clean?
Victimless crimes, are there really such things?
It’s a matter of time, until the fat lady sings
You reap what you sow, I think you know what I mean
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go
It takes courage, to leave your garden
For someone else, to tend
They say, trash into treasure
Karma will be better
When Donald was a boy,
he said someday I’ll be the president
The nation is my toy, I think I’ll buy it up and charge them rent
All in all, I’d rather stay in my hotel
Another point of view, is a special kind of hell
I’m late to play the back nine, got some real estate to sell
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go…
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go…
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go…
You gotta bust it up real good, to get it ready, to let it go…

Move
04:53
|
|||
Far away, on a road, to the sun
I packed my vision and began, to run
But as I made my way through a storm of unprediction
I came to know…..
I’m better when I move, …or I’ll be done
Sitting by, the candle light
I contemplate my fate and find a way to fight
(I) struggle to rejuvenate and fathom through the mire
Looking back….
I’m better when I move, …and under fire
Torn and broken
Like an eagle falling from the sky
Altered circles
Spinning round and twisting through the night
Take these wings and
Make them strong
Find a way to fly
Down and out, I can’t go on
(but if) there’s a window, I can almost see the sun
I can choose to ruminate and tear myself apart
But what I know…
I’m better when I move,…than when I’m gone
Tortured spirit
Like the ghost of Ebenezer’s past
Chains all ‘round me
I can break them down if I can last
Find a way to tear this vision
Move beyond the grasp

Future of Dreams
05:33
|
|||
Time-travel, bio-mechanical emotion,
twenty four seven in view
Genetic engineering of a holographic girl-friend,
blurring the lines between the fake and the true
Katharine Ross, she was beautiful in Stepford,
even with that little vacant look in her eye
I don’t need, a future of dreams,
To cancel what is happening now
I don’t see, where the future leads
if it takes me downtown to a hole in the ground,
where cause and effect, like the fox and the hound
watch the water run down the stream
In the Future of Dreams
Look at the sky crashing into the sea
going on forever ‘til who knows when,
but forever is a clever repetition of a Grace Kelly,
movie playing over, and over again
Sand castle narratives in rising tides,
where reason collides with what the wild imagination allows
I don’t need, a future of dreams
to cancel what is happening now
I don’t see, where the future leads
going ‘round and around, chasing motion and sound
At the bottom of the bin, of the lost and found
where the ends don’t justify the means
In the Future of Dreams
I don’t need harmonic variation
I don’t need, a dream vacation
I don’t need, a little-more time
I have what I have, and it’s working out just fine
I don’t need, a future of dreams
to cancel what is happening now
I don’t see, where the future leads
if it takes me downtown to a hole in the ground
where cause and effect, like the fox and the hound
watch the water run down the stream
In the Future of Dreams
In the Future of Dreams
In the Future of Dreams
In the Future of Dreams
In the Future of Dreams
In the Future of Dreams

Outside the Lines
04:36
|
|||
I’ve been swimming upstream
Ever since I was a fingerling
Never think about the meaning
Of what it could be
Or the shadow flying over me
I’ve been fighting so long
And the current is strong
But it gets a little lonely
Natural selection keeps the lucky and the brave
Simple misadventure
One wrong turn, ride the wave
Looking for protection
No where to hide
Fortune intervenes
Takes me for a ride
Outside the Lines
Today is the first day
Everything has gone right
Don’t think about the monsters
Or the shadows that go bump in the night
The world is open
Full of possibility
But it gets a little lonely
Gets a little lonely
Chasing my reflection
Immersion in a lie
Lost in introspection
Raptor sees from the sky
Vectors and trajectories
Intersecting lines
Subtle indications
Disconcerting signs
Outside the lines
Natural selection keeps the lucky and the brave
Simple misadventure
One wrong turn, ride the wave
Looking for protection
No where to hide
Fortune intervenes
Takes me for a ride
Outside the Lines
