Flight simulator, let me see Show me the way love's supposed to be Plot me a course to ecstasy Leaving behind reality Test flight hold tight We're gonna make our way to the stars From the deep blue sea to the galaxy They're all gonna know who we are We ride like gypsy fire in the land of abandoned dreams Hope I never wake up, cuz when I do it all falls apart at the seems Round two what you do is throw away all your fears Because we speak only truth in every word that you hear We'll ride like gypsy fire to the land of a million dreams We'll never go back to facing facts cuz nothing is what it seems Ooh we dream of better days When shooting stars chase our tears away Ooh we can't stay Gotta ride this rocket ship straight into space

Moving in the black wood, as the crow flies Floating like a specter, in and out of the Light fades and brings the shade To wash away mistakes mistakes I've made Standing on the corner, under a street light Hoping you will show up, with desire to Spend some time alone and find The things we love to do to pass the time Will this the end of sorrow be Or will you make my misery? When the night comes down, all I can do Is wait here for you, wait here for you Time it races by, but time is a fool I still wait here for you, wait here for you Climbing through the window, into the moonlight Rustle in the branches, unafraid of the Way she takes the dark away Replacing it with shades of gray, of gray Sitting by the lakeside, under a dead tree False illuminations, bleeding out of her Silhouette, she turns to me Is this for real, or just a fantasy?

Living in the basement, cuz I cannot afford rent A poor musician, eating food out of can Now I'm in my thirties, and there's no hope for me I'm sad and lazy, somebody come and kill me I'm west coast broke Living with my folks Not in control When am I gonna grow up? I'm west coast broke Living like a joke Not in control When am I gonna grow up? Well my food's expired, and my friends are all retired Still in love with liars, and always feeling tired Ain't got no backup plan, ain't got no rock star band Eat bologna on hand, right from the garbage can

Afterlife 03:26
Soft light, painting the ground outside an Old house, miles from town there's a Dead tree, pointing the way to the Graveyard where the spirits await Do you believe in the Afterlife, do you think there's more than this? I can tell you what I believe, it starts with a kiss We fly up and away when the body fades Emptiness is a physical state but we never fade, never fade away She came into my life, and the World changed, enter the knife that would Send me over the edge, and her Body motionless on the bed I've seen him racing toward the sun Reflecting nothing wanting none of what the youthful eye can see A shadow chasing after me As time passes by the light does fade My life becomes a black crusade He sees me reaching for the sun He pulls me back until it's gone

Hear my voices Stretched so thin I'm on the brink of it It's happening again You'll push play to live for me Happiness I cannot see Circles in my head repeat I'm all to you and nothing to me Sent my warnings My eyes don't lie I'm hiding once again All smiles aside Your laughter is my purpose here I hate to bring you all to tears My legacy will prove that fears have severed all my efforts here Breathing feeling so sickly How can I live when I don't feel free Trapped in this thing that I call me Reach for, reach for, reach for it, reach for I've checked out this time for good The demons told me that I would I can't pretend that I am free I'm the saddest clown you'll ever meet

Instinct tells you to flee So you move cautiously When the day comes to end Paranoia begins Where you go, we can see Through the eyes of the trees No one can hear the screams Welcome to the end Behold the night is starless We gather in the darkness We the creatures that move at twilight These charms grow arms in the Stygian Night When you aimed at the heart That was only the start Words turned into a knife Buried in paradise You thought no one could see Carried on foolishly Now you'll answer to me Welcome to the end
8.
Breathing out, every word she makes sounds the same Under her spell, I can only hear her call my name Born under fire in the evil of the western wood My fate is understood I know the motion of sin A perpetual fire to burn us within I know the motion of sin When the bridges come down another burning begins Breaking down, wanting only to escape her embrace Turn and run, knowing deep down it's already too late Losing Ground in the evil of the western wood My fate is understood This is not what we started The wrath of love departed Her body turned to dust we pray

Dead Dance 02:50
Glass breaks, lights fade He needed something to ease the pain Knock down the barricade Just an inch or two more before the front door breaks We pray and we build and we scheme But when the wind blows hard, it scatters our dreams The sun may rise again, but when the dark sets in Dead dance is pulling at your feet Dead dance controlling every beat of your heart Dead dance is waiting in the street To take you break you at the seems Calling out in the night Praising the darkness and cursing the light At one time, a happy man Til he threw it all away and joined the world of the damned We pray and we build and we scheme But when the wind blows hard, it scatters our dreams The sun may rise again, but when the dark sets in

Dear God 04:36
Dear God, help me to be strong today Help get me through all the temptations The Evil One throws my way Dear God, help us turn this world around Dear God, all it ever takes is one I know the person in the past She made a ton of mistakes I know we've got only this moment And the future leans on your grace You're the only with answers To questions that all of us face I hope one day all of your people Will finally make you proud of this place I pray we witness more kindness I pray we all will be saved I pray that we will reject darkness We know you'll show us the way
