-City Traffic Puzzle-
Escape into the eerie night In the dark I'm out of sight Shadows on the alley wall Are dancing like a lovers brawl
North, south, east and west Foreign land is right and left Don't let them see you cry (Don't let them see you) I didn't know which way was home Ten degrees without a coat Don't let them see you cry
I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don't want to love you if love is this alone I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don't want to love you if love is this alone
Silence couldn't stop the sound The news and gossip got around A whisper here, a whisper there I do but don't know why I care
North, south, east and west Foreign land is right and left Don't let them see you cry (Don't let them see you) I didn't know which way was home Ten degrees without a coat Don't let them see you, see you
I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don't want to love you if love is this alone I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don't want to love you if love is this alone
Eyes hang from the sockets of our faces You said no so I don't think I can take it This car's caving in
Rains on in the city traffic puzzle Shifting pieces just like my stomach We're both so upset
Love sick and sick of it We're both on the same page Don't feel the same way ???
Rains on in the city traffic puzzle Shifting pieces just like my stomach We're both so upset
I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don't want to love you if love is this alone I don't want to love you if love leaves me this cold I don't want to love you if love is this alone

-Weeping Willow-
The snow won't stick to the weeping willows The cold air won't blow open the window You've made it through the storm this far You can do this, dead, it won't be hard, well The snow won't stick to the weeping willows
There will be tomorrow The sun will light a sea of sorrow Tonight it set and took our friend I'd do one thing, I'd bring him back Snow won't stick to the weeping willows
Summer was painted on our skin And those secrets hidden in our childish lips They'd die for a kiss
Fall was always left in your eyes Just a flock of yellow light Like the sunrise Like the twilight
Summer was painted on our skin And those secrets hidden in our childish lips They'd die for a kiss
There will be tomorrow The sun will light a sea of sorrow Tonight it set and took our friend I'd do one thing, I'd bring him back Snow won't stick to the weeping willows
Summer was painted on our skin And those secrets hidden in our childish lips They'd die for a kiss
Fall was always left in your eyes Just a flock of yellow light Like the sunrise Like the twilight
Summer was painted on our skin And those secrets hidden in our childish lips They'd die for a kiss

-Crawling Towards The Sun-
La-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da Da-da-da
Carousels make laps each night Like drunks we spin until were sick Creepy clowns from one horse towns Can make their livings on a trick
Night covers all our tracks To break some fragile backs So we tell some lies Then we hide from light
One night I fell asleep and woke up on that sunny street At first I thought I couldn't but now I see
That the shadows kept me hidden From the light that calls my name All the creatures stood above me Now I'm crawling towards the sun
Candy lips that taste too sweet Were sour in the summer heat As the night fell I heard church bells Say it's time to leave
Out on the town we went To carry out missions Neither you or I would ever know sunlight
One night I fell asleep and woke up on that sunny street At first I thought I couldn't but now I see
That the shadows kept me hidden From the light that calls my name All the creatures stood above me Now I'm crawling towards the sun
In the night light we still shine bright In the night light we still shine bright In the night light we still shine bright
One night I fell asleep and woke up on that sunny street At first I thought I couldn't but now I see
That the shadows kept me hidden From the light that calls my name All the creatures stood above me Now I'm crawling towards the sun

-The Artist-
I know that you're an artist But you're the hardest one to deal with Everything that you conceal Is revealed on your canvas
You find all of your ugly meanings In the things I find beautiful Do you see the fall is coming? Come, I'm falling into you
You perceive all of these things I'd never have known Love, will you turn out the lights? 'Cause we're already home
You painted me in pastels Colors that don't tell of any boldness 'Cause that's the way you'd love to see me So delicate, so weak, so little purpose
But your eyes are drawn of charcoal They're black, they're so cold, they're so imperfect Because they see a sleeping world Where waking isn't worth it
You perceive all of these things That I'd never have known Love, will you turn out the lights? 'Cause we're already home
How can you live without the lights Oh, love, I've had enough of you tonight
All of these things I'd never have known Love, will you turn out the lights? 'Cause we're already home
You perceive all of these things That I'd never have known Love, will you turn out the lights? 'Cause we're already home

-Unsafe Safe-
Facictiously fiction when Albrite was bitten While kissing the girl of his dreams on the lips When I was watching, when I was clocking Seconds to minutes, their lips locked like digits On safes unsafe mainly due to ticking contents When I was watching, timer tick tocking
Don't open the safe is unsafe
No, you won't disarm my heart No, you won't disarm my heart And the last gift you'll ever get from me Is the combination or the key No, you won't disarm my heart
The dial was rusted, vintagely constructed To carry out thoughts of a small scale destruction I saw this one coming, there's no use in running Safe in the distance ignorantly witnessing Everyone scatter as I had a vision A regret, you might say, a worry, you might say
Don't open the safe is unsafe
No, you won't disarm my heart No, you won't disarm my heart And the last gift you'll ever get from me Is the combination or the key No, you won't disarm my heart
No, you won't disarm my heart No, you won't disarm my heart No, you won't disarm my heart No, you won't disarm my heart

-Momentum-
You are the dark ocean bottom And I am the fast sinking anchor Should I fall for you? Should I fall for you?
You are the scar on my tissue That I show all of my new friends Should I show you me? Should I show you me?
All we need is a little bit of momentum Break down these walls that we've built around ourselves All we need is a little bit of inertia Breakdown and tell, breakdown and tell
That you are the rain on the fire Deep in the trees when no one was looking Should I speak of this? Should I speak of this?
You are a mirage in the distance That defies the heat of the desert Should I believe in you? Should I believe in you?
All we need is a little bit of momentum Break down these walls that we've built around ourselves All we need is a little bit of inertia Breakdown and tell, breakdown and tell These rules are made to break and these walls are built to fall These rules are made to break us... These rules are made to break and these walls are built to fall These rules are made to break us all
All we need is a little bit of momentum Break down these walls that we've built around ourselves All we need is a little bit of inertia Breakdown and tell, breakdown and tell

-Hourglass-
As we sift through the hourglass We realize that an hour's passed And not a person here is innocent We're both as guilty as a sin
It must have rained all through the night The tires just couldn't grip right So I took another long sip And wiped away my chapped lips
This is how it ends We believe every lie and say we'll be friends How long will it last Before we scratch all the scripts and we rework the cast
As the hour met the minute hand We kept racing through this foreign land With no direction or a telephone Together we were all alone
That's when the puzzle was finally pieced We compromised until our bodies siezed To some we seem like colder creatures well We were warm until we went to hell
This is how it ends We believe every lie and say we'll be friends How long will it last Before we scratch all the scripts and we rework the
Cast the first stone Lets pretend that we don't have a Past, the worst one Forbid, forget, forget that you exist
Cast the first stone Let's pretend that we don't have a Past, the worst one

-Echo-
You are the lighthouse, the seamark The tempests created this tide I'm pulled to the black silver ocean Where the current and the heavens collide
You are the brick I am so unpredictable Led by the current away Your solid stage is so necessary to save All those who stray
You are the navigator who never could lead We were lost in the silver sea I was the ship who was too proud to ever sink
I am your thought but the water is amnesia My name's on the tip of your tongue My image is slipping But your memory is gripping it This is my breath in your lungs
You are the navigator who never could lead We were lost in the silver sea I was the ship who was too proud to ever sink
Echo, my voice is an echo Of places I don't know And stories I've been told
Echoes, we all are connected A lighthouse, a voyage For history's sake Would you please take notice?
Echo, my voice is an echo Of places I don't know And stories I've been told
Echoes, we all are connected A lighthouse, a voyage For history's sake Would you please take notice?
Echo, my voice is an echo Of places I don't know And stories I've been told
Echoes, we all are connected A lighthouse, a voyage For history's sake Would you please take notice?
Echo, my voice is an echo (echo, echo) Of places I don't know (don't know) And stories I've been told
Echo, we all are connected (echo, connected) A lighthouse, a voyage (voyage) For history's sake Will you please take notice?

-My Apologies-
My apologies dear For all my mistakes and I'm sure to make more 'Cause I forget to enjoy The small things in life, I just let them slip by
Forgive yourself 'cause I took pictures Of everything that you've been missing Now I won't feel so bad Forget the past and repeat it all I'll take some pictures for myself No you won't feel so bad
Why must I stay here When my friends have left and waved me come with? I have lost all of them They're prints in a box when my memory stops
Forgive yourself 'cause I took pictures Of everything that you've been missing Now I won't feel so bad Forget the past and repeat it all I'll take some pictures for myself No you won't feel so bad
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la

-Tides Change-
The tides changed, it's time to go home The waves said I should go The wind began to blow and the water got tall And that's when I went home
My mind changed and then I let go The pain said I should go The wind began to blow and the water got tall And that's when I went home
Going back to the boat With fresh oars, I will row Going back to unknown This SOS will never reach the coast
The tides changed, it's time to go home The waves said I should go The wind began to blow and the water got tall And that's when I went home

-Carry Me Home-
I used to dream until I stopped writing fiction All right, well that's not true Maybe it ended when I ended competition Because I'd always lose, always lose
My therapist could never classify conditions Alright, what's wrong already? My pharmacist had better fill up my prescriptions Here just take two of these and call me in the morning
Oh, oh, oh, won't you carry me home? It's the last time in life that I'll ever try Oh, oh, oh, won't you carry me home? It's the last time in life that I'll ever try
The streets were flooded and in the tides were pessimists So I just dove right in I felt at home, I felt alive, I felt that I fit in So I'll just keep dreaming, dreaming
Oh, oh, oh, won't you carry me home? It's the last time in life that I'll ever try Oh, oh, oh, won't you carry me home? It's the last time in life that I'll ever try
Wait for the wind to blow Can't carry myself can't carry me home On my own will
Can't let you go just yet Can't bury myself can't carry us both On my own will
Oh, oh, oh, won't you carry me home? It's the last time in life that I'll ever try Oh, oh, oh, won't you carry me home? It's the last time in life that I'll ever try

-Eileen-
Dear, you left too soon Went to the next room If you haunt me, I'll sing for you
How the hinges move Connecting me and you Is a doorway you're knocking through
We walk down a dock And the water's cold You want me to escort you
How I'd love to go Swim with you in death My heavy heart won't let me tread
I must stay on the shore I am young, my blood warm I can take you this far Now, my love, we must part
When blood and youth were warmer We breathed summer like the sweet air We found each other like a mirror We were so optimistic It was so easy to be We we're young and naive
Can you pull down the dawn? It's been so dark since you've been gone And we've been begging for the morning to come We were so optimistic It was so easy to be We were young and naive
We'll be fine in the morning We'll be fine in the morning It's getting late so we must sleep We'll see you in the morning Eileen
