Who I Am 08:19
Verse 1: I’m taking it slow | I’m trying to grow | Trial by fire I go Apart from the pack | The wind at my back Dodging every vicious attack Verse 2: People I left | Letters I kept | Shadows on the wall project Faces in time | Partners in crime | Weaving through a simple design Bridge / Pre-chorus: Breathing | Being | Needing | Seeing | Knowing | Love Chorus: Telling myself I know just who I am Fooling myself into knowing who I am Verse 3: I’m jumping the gap | Escaping the trap | Marking miles on the map It’s right in my head | I’ll sleep when I’m dead Putting every nightmare to bed Verse 4: I follow the birds | And silence the words | Spoken to control the herds You can figure it out | You can drown in your doubt Or just discover what it’s really about
3.
Verse 1: Melting ice drops into the river Flowing past the edges of time And I lay here Counting my days Verse 2: Looking through clear and faded memories Thinking long about the way it all went down And I lay here Counting my days Bridge: How it just falls out Within you, the storm before the drought And I’m waiting now to see what it’s about Chorus: Beginning Reliving Every word and every moment Chorus Tag: I will wave good bye As I try for that forbidden planet

Hollow 10:47
Verse 1: A night of silence falling | The ashes settle down Around the candles burning | And the wind sweeps the ground Verse 2: A time of loose reflection | Fear has gripped the town All around the lips are moving | And the words have no sound Bridge: Is this a call to action? | Is this another play? Is this a new distraction? | Is it too late to say? Chorus: Rest your head | No one said it would be Easy to change the ways of the land Casting your lines from sinking sand I don’t want to follow you | I don’t want your hollow view Verse 3: A grand display of fortune | The looking glass is clean All around the cameras focus | And they cut to the scene Verse 4: A sound bite then we’re rolling | The crowd response obscene All around the hands are clapping | And they say what they mean

Erosion 03:21

Nautilus 06:11
Verse 1: When I was young | I saw it When I was free | It ran through my fingers Without questions | It had meaning Bridge: But I left it behind | I traded in my pieces for a bigger peace of mind Pre-Chorus: I’m not looking for solace | I’m not seeking the touch I can feel like you do | and it hurts just as much Chorus: We need a way forward | We need a day of truth Cause it’s not enough to go on | Cause it’s not enough to lose We’re broken in two and it’s me and you | Alone
7.
Verse 1: Lay inside | Eyes pan wide | Over endless tide Watching time pull back | Layers of subtle signs Verse 2: Light of day | Each new ray | Shining through the grey It makes you wonder | How long will you stay? Chorus: Stay | Stay | Stay | Stay Verse 3: Two as one | Summer sun | Blink and then its done Every time we take | Pictures without someone Verse 4: Ooh | Aah | Ooh-Aah | Mmmm | How long will you stay?

Inception 08:05
Verse 1: Once again | I count it out | 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 | I’ve gone crazy Verse 2: Once again | I figured out | All the little tricks | It’s so lazy Bridge: They can not be saved | They have witnessed the final wave ‘Cause it’s all diluted now | Take your seat as they take their bow Chorus: Joining the reception | Too late for inception
10.
Summit 09:52
Verse 1: Every dream | Every dream is a car crash Broken windows | A terrible scene Verse 2: Filmed in reverse | In monochrome | And half speed Grain and dust | Covers my face Bridge: And I can’t choose | Which appendage I lose Chorus: I rest my case here | And fight through my fear Scaling the summit for truth I left my life there | And laid my soul bare Scaling the summit for truth Verse 3: Every place | Every place is a subway Dirty floors | Making a scene Walking to stations | The eyes on my shoulder Turning around | In time to be late
