don’t look down don’t open your eyes hold on tight don’t let it fall back I could feel the fire coming from the stage burning my brow as I stand right before the blaze the crowd was jumpin’ around at every kick & snare blinded by a thousand lights as I stared breathless breathe in fumes from the fire fly a thousand lightyears away I could feel the pressure bouncing off the ground standing right before this giant wall of sound my heart thumping hard and loud in my chest as I am getting ready for what’s next to come breathe in fumes from the fire and let it all go for a while breathe in fumes from the fire aren't you tired of tryin' alone break the rules and the mold express yourself assume your role breathe in fumes from the fire go and make this life your own break the rules and the mold it is you it’s the real you

Vapor Trails 04:09
drifting through the haze like vapor trails swirling in a maze to the end of our days eclipsing the light clinging to the cold unseen in the night memories of old fly towards the sun condensing to tears the hopes and the fears of all that is far and all that is near dripping to the floor start over again the wounds, they will mend the cycle never ends
3.
wide awake while everyone’s asleep coffee break while everyone's at work wide awake can’t even close my eyes I cannot shake this feeling something I can’t control whatever the meaning it rips my heart and soul wide awake it seems I'm looking kind'a paranoid the vow won't break a deafening cry into the void I cannot shake this feeling something I can’t control
4.
Waiting 05:21
this time keep your head down walk straight out of town hide in the plain light of day for darkness is on it's way it holds me like a ghost it blows the candle I’ve disposed it burns my skin away the cold I go through every day it finally brings peace when the leaves have fallen at my feet wait and turn to stone this time that you’re home whatever I’m running away from it keeps coming back around whoever I've become it's never losing ground some things never change until we break 'em down it’ll slowly feed on your rage but surely got you ‘round
5.
Un 06:00
we are of the earth to her we return for there's an ocean of answers unspoken there are no afters nor befores all is one and one is all steady stream through space and time all is closely intertwined we are just pawns in the game on the grandest of stages no doubt no claim to fame traveling the ages from rich to exhausted all resources been drained for the soil needs to be fed its workers shall become the grain beyond skyline and below the streets our fate redefined a design incomplete nourishing the maker returning to our mother the very essence of life passed on to another every minute feels like I’m pulled through my demise a witness tied till the end seeing life resetting again
6.
all lights are out all hell breaks loose it’s coming back to me little by little it’s driving me crazy one step at a time
7.
I trust this very instant one more step a new beginning soaring higher and higher for there is grace when the world shatters between the memory set in stone and the moment left unknown lasting like writings on the wall halfway there amidst the sun and stars for what I see with eyes closed a lifetime in a heartbeat for what I feel now and here could be sealed deep inside of me scattered like ashes in the wind without a sound without warning once more I start anew from here amidst the sun and stars between fiction and reality
8.
Tainted Eyes 08:20
turn the lights down low and lay next to me let the troubles go fall asleep gently away from this loud world away from the madness and the prayers unheard through the only way out the unknown's looking in the wind comes and goes time's eluding if something’s not right and doesn’t feel wrong nor does it feel right? as I fall from grace night turns to day I cannot see the light as the dark clouds rise like tainted eyes sometimes blur the lines between what’s wrong and right shady contours breaches paradigm darkness becoming heavier the weighing of time
