Cryptoamnesia
03:31
|

Painted faces in the sky
Silhouettes within the night
Slowly melting into one
Explode and turn into the sun.
Fields of bugs a symphony
Hum familiar melodies
Electric mud crawls up the trees
Giving life to all it's leaves.
Why am I always falling?
Why am I always here?
Why are you always calling?
Why did you bring me here?
Clouds of joy are raining down
But everybody wears a frown
The moon is falling out of place
Now I see his other face.
Why am I always falling?
Why am I always here?
Why are you always calling?
Why did you bring me here?
I'm trapped in here,
This place keeps calling my name.
I'm trapped in here,
This place keeps calling my name.
Why am I always falling?
Why am I always here?
Why are you always calling?
Why did you bring me here?

Spiderweb
04:20
|

A spiderweb thats new
A trap that's set for you
And you get caught
Just hangin there to die
Now your spider food
Life can be so cruel
There's nothing you can do
While the blood is sucked from you
Slowly losing consciousness
No fight left your body quits
The pain goes way your body dies
A sudden end to your short life
A spiderweb thats old
The spider is no more
But you're still caught
Just hangin' there to die
Not even spider food
Life can be so cruel
Your life is at it's end
A slow and painful end
Slowly losing consciousness
No fight left your body quits
The pain goes way your body dies
A sudden end to your short life
You're in this world, all alone.
You're in this world, and you will die alone.
You leave this world, all alone.
You leave this world, just like when you were born.

Hidden
03:52
|
|

You can loose all that you gain
Just a moments all it takes
You can get all the riches you want
Without love it's a mistake
You can run but you can't get away
Like a wheel that spins in place
Try to ignore what you have done
But the past you can't erase
Let yourself go
Close your eyes you'll see
Everything you want to know
Is hidden in your dreams
You can search at the ends of the Earth
But there's nothing you will find
Truth is the silence deep in the night
You can never leave behind
Let yourself go
Close your eyes you'll see
Everything you want to know
Is hidden in your dreams
Let yourself go
Close your eyes you'll see
Everything you want to know
Is hidden in your dreams

Easy Way Out
04:15
|
|
||
Breath it all in get yourself high
Checking your bag running low running dry
How can you face yourself at night
Close all the doors and shut out the light
Like an animal trapped inside of a cage
Pacing around in a small lonely place
How can you waste every night
Choosing to stay where you can hide
You thought you took the easy way out
You thought you took the easy way out
You thought you took the easy way out
But you could not have been more wrong
The sun rises up your eyes can't quite see
Everything is a blur can't remember your dreams
How can you choose to cloud your soul
Look at yourself was this your goal
You thought you took the easy way out
You thought you took the easy way out
You thought you took the easy way out
But you could not have been more wrong
Sit and tell me stories 'bout the times you went away, went away
When everything was great
The world was full of sights and sounds.
Great people all around
Back in the day
When everything was great
Sit and tell me stories 'bout the times you went away, went away
When everything was great
The world was full of sights and sounds.
Great people all around
Back in the day
When everything was great

Bits & Pieces
04:08
|
|

Everything that I have left is lying on the floor
Bits of broken lullabies, nothing less or more
Don't wanna see it happen
Don't wanna see it happen
How can you tell me what I want
How can you tell me what I need
How could you know?
All these dreams that seem to hide, never in full view
Pieces of what's left of me, none are very new
Don't wanna see it happen
Don't wanna see it happen
How can you tell me what I want
How can you tell me what I need
How could you know?
Oh no, brought me to my knees
Oh, something I could feel
Oh no, nothing I could see
Oh, I wonder if it's real
Nothing here is left untouched, I guess you seem to know
Why time touches everything, it's just the way it goes
Don't wanna see it happen
Don't wanna see it happen
How can you tell me what I want
How can you tell me what I need
How could you know?
Oh no, brought me to my knees
Oh, something I could feel
Oh no, nothing I could see
Oh, I wonder if it's real
Bits & pieces crumble, on and on
City still unravels
Thieves and beggars prowling in your mind
Don't be fooled again they're waiting on and on
Oh no, brought me to my knees
Oh, something I could feel
Oh no, nothing I could see
Oh, I wonder if it's real

Once I can build a bridge up to the stars I'll see you again
No one else can break this spell in two
I'm crumbling, stumbling to you
Your memory infects me
Lord knows how long I'd wait here for you
I'd wait a thousand years if I had to
But I know you'll never return to this world
Once I can build a bridge up to the stars I'll see you again
Once I can build a bridge up to the stars I'll see you again
Dark days pass and I can't last for long
I called the sky, there's no reply it's wrong
You've gone to far to hear me
Lord knows how long I'd wait here for you
I'd wait a thousand years if I had to
But I know you'll never return to this world, to this world
Once I can build a bridge up to the stars I'll see you again
Once I can build a bridge up to the stars I'll see you again

She says, she will dance with the dead tonight
She will sing their song
Time slips by so fast.
She walks, between those lonely stones
Says a silent prayer
Nothing ever lasts.
What is a cannon
But rhythm for war,
And it's nothing more
What is starlight
But sunshine from afar,
And it's nothing more.
Is there something more?

We Own the Night
02:48
|
|
||
We'll wait till midnight,then we're coming out.
We'll take the city and we'll tear it down.
We are the shadows when there is no light.
Don't walk alone 'cause we own the night.
Nothing you do can keep us from you.
We want a taste of blood.
No one to trust, we live for your lust.
We want a taste of blood
On our lips once again
blood is thick and love is thin.
We'll take your love, eat your soul,
steal your hope then let you go.
We smell your fear we can taste your flesh.
We'll make you one of us with all the rest.
We are the gods that can't be bought.
You think you know us but we're everything you're not.
Nothing you do can keep us from you.
We want a taste of blood.
No one to trust, we live for your lust.
We want a taste of blood
On our lips once again
blood is thick and love is thin.
We'll take your love, eat your soul,
steal your hope then let you go.
On our lips once again
blood is thick and love is thin.
We'll take your love, eat your soul,
steal your hope then let you go.

Summertime

Thoughts of home on the road
I cannot escape no mater where I go
People come and they go
But your memory never loses it's hold
The summertime is on my side
It's in my veins glows like the sun
Your green eyes they're on my mind
They're in my brain when I'm on the run
Lightning storms cut the sky
Raining down on me but I still don't mind
Thoughts of you keep me high
When the night burns down and there's nowhere to hide
The summertime is on my side
It's in my veins glows like the sun
Your green eyes they're on my mind
They're in my brain when I'm on the run
I'll spend the rest of my days wondering
what we could have been
I'll spend the rest of my time wondering
why we had to end
I'll spend the rest of my days wondering
what we could have been
I'll spend the rest of my time wondering
why we had to end
The summertime is on my side

Going Down a Rabbit Hole
04:36
|
|
||
What do you have to prove?
Nothing left to lose.
I've seen enough,
I've had too much.
Going down a rabbit hole
Going back where I belong
Going to the stars above
Going to a place I love
You play the cards you drew.
Who gave those scars to you?
Now I've seen enough,
I've had too much.
Going down a rabbit hole
Going back where I belong
Going to the stars above
Going to a place I love
I'll leave the day
I will take my soul
I'll leave my name
Now it's time to go.
I've seen enough,
I've had too much.
Going down a rabbit hole
Going back where I belong
Going to the stars above
Going to a place I love

Invasion
03:47
|
|
||
Oh no they're coming
Turn on one by one.
Come to infect us
flew down from above.
They're sleeper cells, they wait inside.
No way to tell where they all hide.
Run from your lover
She's already changed.
Run from the others
They're just not the same.
They'll tell you, they're better now.
No pain or fear to bring them down.
But it's an invasion,
Static when you call.
But it's an invasion,
They've come to get us all.
Run to the forest
Get out of town.
Leave the city
Crumbling to the ground.
Don't let them see, you're not they're kind.
They'll give a cure that eats your mind.
But it's an invasion,
Static when you call.
But it's an invasion,
They've come to get us all.
But it's an invasion,
Static when you call.
But it's an invasion,
They've come to get us all.
It's an invasion
It's an invasion

Until We're Dead
06:58
|
|
||
Maybe this ship of ours will make it through the night,
Burning cats clawing at us trying to tear us down.
But we'll keep on
Moving ahead
We'll keep on
Until we're dead
Cracked skies and shattered earth are crumbling all around,
Millions of teeth with eyes are looking down at us.
But we'll keep on
Moving ahead
We'll keep on
Until we're dead
(Bridge)
But we'll keep on
Moving ahead
We'll keep on
Until we're dead
We've come to far to let it end here
We've come to far
We've come to far to let it end here
We've come to far to let it end.
