Life Wasted
You're always saying that there's something wrong.
I'm starting to believe it's you're plan all along.
Death came around, forced to hear it's song
And know tomorrow can't be depended on
Seen the home inside your head.
All locked doors and unmade beds
Open sores unattended
Let me say just once that
i have faced it, a life wasted.
I'm never going back again.
i escaped it,a life wasted.
I'm never going back again.
having tasted, alife wasted.
I'm never going back again.
the world awaits just up the stairs
leave the pain for someone else
nothing back there for you to find
or was it you you left behind?
You're always saying you're too weak to be
strong.
You're harder on yourself than just about anyone
Why swim the channel just to get this far?
Halfway there, why would you turn around?
Darkness comes in waves...tell me,
Why invite it to stay?
You're one with negativity
Yes, comfort is an energy
But why let the sad song play?? ???
I have faced it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
Oh i escaped it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
Having tasted, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
Oh i erased it, a life wasted
I'm never going back again
World Wide Suicide
I felt the earth on Monday. It moved beneath my feet.
In the form of a morning paper. Laid out for me to see.
Saw his face in a corner picture. I recognized
the name.
Could not stop staring at the. Face I'd never see again.
It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday in a hell manmade
What can be saved, and who will be left to hold her?
The whole world...World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
Medals on a wooden mantle. Next to a handsome
face.
That the president took for granted.
Writing checks that others pay.
And in all the madness. Thought becomes numb
and naive.
So much to talk about. Nothing for to say.
It's the same everyday and the wave won't
break
Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder
Laying claim to the take that our soldiers
save
Does not equate, and the truth's already out there
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
Looking in the eyes of the fallen
You got to know there's another, another, another, another
Another way
It's a shame to awake in a world of pain
What does it mean when a war has taken over
It's the same everyday and the wave won't
break
Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
The whole world,... World over.
It's a worldwide suicide.
Comatose
Consider me an object
Put me in a vacuum
Free of all conditions
Free of air and friction
Yea, I'll be hanging upside down.
And there I will swing
For all eternity
Fell it rising, yea next stop falling
Feel it rising, comatose, with no fear of falling
Consider me an abscess
Leave me in my vacuum
Blood on all the pistons
Running my transmission
Feel it rising, yea next stop falling
Feel it rising, comatose, with no fear of falling
Feel it rising, yeah next stop falling
Feel It rising
High above I'll break the law,
if it's illegal to be in love,
leave the hatred, on the cross
yea I'll be hanging upside down and here
I will swing
for all eternity
feel it rising, yea next stop falling
feel it rising, comatose with no fear of falling
feel it rising, yea, next stop falling
feel it rising something never thought you'd be part of
Severed Hand
Big man stands behind an open door
Said, leave your lady on the cement floor
got some kicks, want to take a ride?
I said, yeah!
take your pick, leave yourself behind
I said, yeah!
I've no fear but for falling down
So look out below I am falling now
Oh please understand I just need, my friend,
a way a way a way home
Tried to walk, found a severed hand
Recognized it by the wedding band
Said it's ok, do you want some more?
I said, yeah!
Said You'll see dragons after 3 or 4
I said, yeah!
Under stand I'm not falling down
I said, look around, the rooms taller now,
I can't close my eyes, 'cause I see the sound in waves
In waves, lets me stay calm
If I don't lose control
Explore and not explode
A preternatural other plane
With the power to maintain
Like a tear in all we know
Once dissolved we are free to grow
What is human, what is more?
I'll answer this when I get home
Marker In the Sand
There is a marker
No one sees it 'cause the sand
That has cover over
All the messages it kept
Misunderstanding, what original truth was
And now expanding
In a faith but not in love
What went wrong?
Walking tightrope high over moral ground
Seeing visions of falling up somehow
Do come down
With the living
Let what is living love
So unforgiving
Yet needing forgiveness first
God, what do you say?
Those undecided
Needn't have faith to be free
And those misguided
There was a plan for them to be
Now you got both sides
Claiming killing in god's name
Bue god is nowhere
To be found, conveniently
What goes on?
Walking tightrope high over moral ground
Walk the bridges be-fore you burn them down
Do come round
With the living
Let what is living love
Unforgiving
Yet needing forgiveness first
God, what do you say?
God, what do you say?
I feel a sickness
A sickness coming over me
Like watching freedom
Being stucked straight out to sea
And the solution?
Well, from me far would it be
Bue the delusion
Is feeling dangerous to me
What goes wrong?
Walking tightrope high over moral ground
Seeing visions of falling up somehow
Do come down
With the living
Let what is living love
Are forgiving
Yet needing forgiveness first
God, what do you say?
God, what do you say?
What do you say?
Coming out, coming out
Coming out, coming out
Parachutes
Why deny all the troubles when combined
With the missing links it don't feel like home now
That your gone all the troubles suddenly
explained infinitum
You're always wishing and never here at home
You all the dreams we shared and
lights we turned on
but the house is getting dark
and I don't want to know your past
but together share the dawn
and I won't need nothing else
cause when we're dead
we would've had it all and died
I would've fallen from the sky til you
Parachutes have opened now
Heaven knows if there's a ceiling
Come so low with the kneeling
Please know that I got all the friends I'm needing
Before my light go out
As the doors are closing now
And far away will be my home
And to grasp this, I don't know
But I don't need
Further back and forth, a wave will break on me today
And love
Wish the world could glow again with love
One can't seem to have enough
And war
Break the sky and tell me what it's for
I'll travel there on my own
And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you
Unemployable
He's got a big gold ring which says Jesus Saves
and it's dented from the punch thrown at work that day
when he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things
after the big boss say You best be on your way
So this life is sacrifice
oh yeah
jumping trains just to survive
Well his wife and kids asleep but he's still
awake
and his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills unpaid
gets up, lights a cigarette, he's grown to hate
thinking if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream again?
So this life is sacrificed
oh yeah
to a stranger's bottom line
oh yeah
I've seen the light, oho oh ohhhh oho oh
ohhhh
I'm scared alive
nearly dead
oho oh ohhhh oho oh ohhhh
I've seen the light
Still alive
yeah
So this life is sacrificed
oh yeah
Was a dream that had to die
oh yeah
I've seen the light, oho ohhh ohhhhh oho
ohhh ohhhhh
I'm scared alive
Near to death
oho ohhh ohhhhh oho ohhh ohhhhh
I've seen the light
scared alive
oho ohhh ohhhhh oooohoooo
I'm here to die
here to die
scared alive
Here to die
Here to die
Scared of life
Big Wave
Oh he deals em off, off the top, ties em off
Fills it up, with his past, gets carried away
Oh half his life, a hand me down, wasted away
Of he fills it up, with the love, of a girl
Oh he left it alone, drilled the pain, with money to buy
How he makes his getaway
How he makes his getaway
Oh he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
Fills his night, with the thought, of a girl
How he makes his getaway
How he makes his getaway
How he makes his getaway
Gone
No more upset mornings
No more trying evenings
It's the American Dream I am disbelieving.
When the gas in my tank feels like money in the bank
I’m gonna blow it all this time, take me one last
ride.
The lights of the city, they only look good when I’m
speeding
I wanna leave em all behind me because this time I’m
gone
Gone, going for it all this time, gone.
In the far off distance
As my taillights fade
No one to witness but they will someday
Feel like a question is forming
And the answers
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town.
The lights of this city
They’ve lost all of their feeling
I wanna leave em all behind me because this time I’m
gone
Gone, going for it all, this time I’m gone
Nothing is everything
I’ll have it all
If nothing is everything then I will have it all.
I’m gone.
Wasted Reprise
[Indisponível]
Army Reserve
How long must she stand
Before the ground, it gives way
To an endless fall
She can feel this
War on her face
The stars on her pillow
She's folding in darkness
Begging for slumber
I'm not blind
I can see it coming
Looks like lightning
In my child's eye
I'm not frantic
I can feel it coming
Violently shakes
My body
Her son's slanted
Always giving her
The sideways eye
The empty chair where dad sits
How loud can silence get?
And mom, she reassures
To contain him
But it's becoming a lie
She tells herself
And everyone else
Father is risking
His life for our freedoms
I'm not blind
I can see it coming
Looks like lightning
In my child's eye
I'm not frantic
I can feel it coming
Darling you'll save me
If you save yourself
Come Back
If keep holding now
Will the light shine through, under this broken roof, there's
only rain that I feel
I've been wishing out the days.. oh oh oh.
Come back..
I have been planing out, all that I'll say
to you
Since you've sliped away, know that I still remain true
I've been wishing out the days...
Please say it again.
If you hadn't go now, I wouldn't have lost you another way
From wherever you are..
Come back
In these days, It lingers on
And in the night, I've been waiting for..
A real possibilitie that I may meet you in my dreams.
I go to sleep.
If I don't fall apart, will my memories stay
clear
So you had to go, and I had to remain here
But the strangest thing today,
So far way and yet,
You feel so close, and I'm not gonna question it any other
way
There must be an open door for you...
To come back
In the days, It lingers on
And every night, I'm waiting for..
A real possibilitie that we meet you in my dreams.
Sometimes you're there and you're talking back to me
Come the morning, and I can swear that you're next to me.
It's ok..
..its ok..its ok.
Inside Job
Underneath this smile lies everything
All my hopes and anger, pride and shame
I make myself a pact, not to shut doors on
the past
Just for today I am free
I will not lose my faith
It's an inside job today
I know this one thing well
I used to try and kill love. the highest
sin
Breathing insecurity out and in
Searching hope, I'm shown the way to run
straight
Pursuing the greater way for all human light
How I choose to feel is how I am
How I choose to feel is how I am
I will not lose my faith
It's an inside job today
Holding on, the light of night
On my knees to rise and fix my broken soul
Again
Let me run into the rain
To be a human light again
