ARROW
Paralyzed and for some time
But I feel a change in these bones of mine
I feel a pulse I feel a rise
I feel it, I feel it
Breaking from these icy chains
I hear the Fire that speaks my name
It begs me to come home again
I hear it, I hear it
Bound to the Arrow calling me to follow
Calling me to follow now
And It haunts me, haunts me
Yeah It haunts me, haunts me
Running 'cross a garnished pave
Was chosen by this path I take
And soon I'll reach those pearly gates
I'll reach them, I'll reach them
--
I've been led out of the dark
By the Ringing in my heart
And I may wander back and forth
But I am always headed North
BURY ME IN ORCHIDS
Bury me in orchids when the sun goes down and colors fade
Into a portrait, the reflection of my former days
I've been around and around and around but I can't seem to find my way out
So bury me in orchids when the sun goes down and colors fade
I'm losing the echo, I'm losing the echo, I'm losing the echo
I will escape from here a hideaway spirit
I will escape from here a hideaway spirit
Molded by a journey the very details of my skin and bones
Could tell the story of a love that floods the heart and soul
And if you drown, if you down, if you drown you'll be breathless in the air now
--
Set this ghost free Everlasting, take me home to the promised land
EVEN IF YOUR VOICE SHAKES
Bound by a hollow grave
Deep breathe in before the chase
Run until you lose it
Only you can prove it
Rise up for your people here
Find strength in the weight of fear
Push until you're through it
Only you can move it
There's fire in your eyes
A flame that burns the night away
The drum that beats your heart
Could pound the earth apart 'til it breaks
So howl it out, even if your voice shakes
Take back what you used to hold
Your soul is the bravest soul
I know only you can prove it
GALAXY FOR TWO
I'm hanging onto the edge before the fall
If you could catch me there I would let go
So far, so far, wherever we are
So far, so long as we're together
All the stars align every time you kiss me
And our hearts collide, cosmic romancing
Will you hold me close to you?
In our galaxy for two
I know you feel the way the earth is still
When you and I slip away to our own world
--
Boy this love expands throughout the skies
The way you love is every kind of right
HORIZON
Lost my way from the coastline
Constellations are my guide
Have no fear where this could go
Drifting into the unknown
These are deep waters, these are deep waters
Calling me farther, calling me...
Nobody can shake me
I'm breaking the boundaries
Keep on defying with my
Eyes on the horizon
Swallowed by a couple of whales
Hurricanes tore up my sails
But no large fish or bad weather
Can take down my adventure
These are deep waters making me stronger
These are deep waters calling me farther
--
Can't see what lies ahead this fog is almost blinding
If I lose my way again I'm far too gone for finding
Might never reach the end... will I settle with the tiding?
Until a new day reminds me
MADE TO BREAK
You’ve been creeping in closer and closer
And invaded these walls that I hold up
Try to think it through over and over
But I continue to fall for the setup
Put the lock and chains
On my intuition, I keep wishing
You would walk away
But you’re still pushing, so persistent
How long will it take
Oh before we learn that this is a mistake
It always ends the same
My heart was made to break
Will I ever perceive the misfortune?
Does the anguish I feel ever go numb?
Cause swear it just heals for the torture
And leaves me with curses from my tongue
--
I reached my limit, and I was good with it
But you wrestled with it, and now I might give it
One more hit, I’ll risk it
Although I’m a cynic, I’m too tied up in this
METAMORPHOSIS
Heart built like a cage home to all the cannibals
Calcium and hate making up my weary bones
Holding back ain't easy still there is a breakthrough
Everlasting Flame melting down a frozen mold
Reform, refine, reborn
Metamorphosis
Wings of dust and gold resurrect the life of me
Breath of Truth and Love exhale the enemy
Never fully graved we brace for the abrasion
Everlasting Stone ground this new identity
--
Burn with the Fire let it sear through my veins
Held by the solid Rock of Ages
Thread with the Spirit inter-tangled 'til I am a mirror of the Light
ONLY HUMAN
There’s no hiding from their watching, I can feel them staring
Downward spiraling, constant mocking, still it’s not apparent
How many days, how many ways will I be the outcast?
No denying or conforming, I am what I am
Open these veins
If I’m only human, I won’t stop bleeding
And I’m not ashamed
If I’m only human, I can’t stop breathing
Breathing for You, for you, for you, for you
When will they see they’re just like me? We all need an answer
Hate and envy so intensely; emotional cancer
I am no saint, I have caused pain while lacking compassion
Without treaty we are deadly; raise your firearms
--
If living is dying first, I’ll take their worst
And until they understand, they can...
SANDCASTLE
I’ve seen the battle burn cities down
With just a chill in the air
Humans are greener than island palms
Sometimes they don’t even bleed
You took your step onto spiral grounds
Now you need to beware
I am a hunter with siren songs
I paint my life like a dream
Just keep your eyes on me
Look at my castle by the water, made with the finest sands at sea
Look at my crown and shells to treasure, don’t you wish you were me?
At first what started out innocent
Has turned morality vague
Should head and heart take on different realms
That’s when you’ve lost control
Hear these confessions from my expense
Once you have entered the game
The only way you can save yourself
Is to forfeit your throne
--
Until the tide rolls in, my turn to sink or swim
And there’ll be nothing left for you to see
--
Oh, Who am I kidding?
Tell me, who am I kidding?
--
When my kingdom is washed away by the sea
STAND STILL
A planet inside out
There is no stable ground
The air is thick with doubt
And tries to pin me down
A voiceless cry
Echoes in my mind
And I must chase the sound
To make it out alive
Ooh so feed my soul
Chemicals of emotion
Wreck these walls
Let ‘em fall boundaries open
Quick impulse critical
All of my flesh and every breath
Begs me to move, run from the grave
Fly for the thrill, just don’t stand still
No winds, fires, or rain
Could stop my throbbing fate
With forces rushing wild
Throughout my D.N.A.
--
I will not rest, sleep when I’m dead
I cannot rest, sleep when I’m dead
STRIKE
Sink to the bottom, to the bottom
With the very last breath you breathe
Now you got ‘em, now you got ‘em
Shook the earth and set captives free
In the morning, in the morning
Rising up to claim victory
Not a warning, not a warning, not a warning
Every time that you strike, you strike
Not a fool can catch it down, catch it down
Like a fire-bolt in the night, the night
Flare up when you hit the ground, hit the ground
You light a crack in the sky, the sky
With a gunshot sound, ring out, ring out
Every time that you strike, you strike
This world turns back around
Stuck in a cycle, in a cycle
Human suffering and deceit
Faulty idols, faulty idols
Lining up to take our beliefs
Love and glory, love and glory
Storming in as the prophecy
Not a warning, not a warning, not a warning
WHO YOU REALLY ARE
Blind to love, I believed every word you said
Enough lies and schemes planted in my head
I was twisted up, twisted up bad
Twisted up, twisted
I came up close to the fire
It’s only a matter of time
Before the smoke clears away
And though the flames would get higher
Light became brighter and shone
On all the games that you played
And now I see you for
Who you really are
Yeah, now I see you for
Who you really are
Played it cool all along you put on a show
For fools, mask is gone and now I finally know
The truth everything that you do is for you
Everything that you do
--
The uglier that you get
The harder to find a mask that fits
The uglier your soul gets
The harder to find a mask that fits
