An alarming, and startling, surprise A Phone Call Opens your eyes Quiet words carry news of despair Don't worry, we'll find the best care We will all stand by you unwavering, Strong and Unshakeable When’s the time to be scared or be brave What decides who's life will be saved Hold her hand to keep strength and keep will Calm the nerves that will otherwise kill And you'll see him holding a bright star, guiding silently. In silver lining, as your spirit fades, the hardest part, is remembering, that there will be Shining silver pearls, banners and fireflies, by a host delivered When you are free, we will all forget what a trying road it was Echoing applause, candy and cavalcades beside flowing rivers When you are free, we will all believe someone's watching over us. In the hour a plan will be made A blueprint with steps displayed We will all form a wall on the line Build defenses, an army in kind And we’ll stand tall guarding a loved one, a force impregnable In silver lining, as your spirit fades, the hardest part, is remembering, that there will be Shining silver pearls, banners and fireflies, by a host delivered When you are free, we will all forget what a trying road it was Echoing applause, candy and cavalcades beside flowing rivers When you are free, we will all believe someone's watching over us. If you can fight through the clouded night If you can handle the storm, Then we will go on with you in our minds, we will go on, with you in our memories If you can fight through the clouded night If you can handle the storm, Then we will go on with you in our minds, we will go on, with you in our memories

Rain Check 03:53
the sun light's calling me outside now the rain clouds calling me in pack the car tomorrow baby We'll start all over again rain drops drum on the roof top can make you wanna dance grab the hips of the lead car baby and We'll give fun a chance. We can dance and sing inside Who needs sun with shade to hide floor or sand will you take my hand to the softer side of the weather dreary days will show us the way to the eden we made together. follow the steps so we try shift and sway the rest Can Can with a confident man and we'll defy the best We can dance and sing inside Who needs sun with shade to hide floor or sand will you take my hand to the softer side of the weather dreary days will show us the way to the eden we made together. follow me to the overlay silence now so we can see I am staring into you as your staring into me as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be I am staring into you as your staring into me as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be I am staring into you as your staring into me as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be I am staring into you as you are staring into me as we realize a greater sense of who we want to be

Brevity 04:02
I sealed my fate in a tire today, a rolling wheel with a guide away, The chase is all I’ll need to feel the high. But if that tire should break at all, I’ll slow my pace I’ll stop it all The space is what I’ll need to feel alive. But I’ll go, go, to the beckoning call, convinced I’ll leave the emptiness behind Still I’ll know, know, that we’re destined to fall, our fate relies on my unstable mind I’ve buried the feelings of yesterday, or so I thought they had gone to stay Wherever there was room within her life I realize now it’s the only way, I’ll save a piece of my sanity The thought of love must be kept far away But I’ll go, go, to the beckoning call, convinced I’ll leave the emptiness behind Still I’ll know, know, that we’ll never at all, have the chance try the test of time But I’ll go, go, to the beckoning call, convinced I’ll leave the emptiness behind Still I’ll know, know, that I’ll never at all, find desire by my own design

12 Months 03:47
Oh, do not be alarmed Oh, the third time's the charm How does the distant bloodshed How does it draw you from your home where do you find the fight where do you find the urge for more 12 months til the next cigar 12 months to remember who you are 365 days to see you walk through our door 12 months til we hit the bar 12 months til we pass around the guitar 365 days til you finish your tour Pray to god that your debt is paid Pray to god til you run into the fray Pray to god that you know just what to say Hope and pray that they find another way How does life of terrors How does it act as a call to serve where do you find the fight where do you find the urge for more, thus it is in War 12 months til the next cigar 12 months to remember who you are 365 days to see you walk through our door, 12 months til you're here to stay 12 months or so it is they say 365 days til you finish your tour A dream you had while sleeping in your tent Freedoms lost the world is hell bent Could you fight for rights and pay your rent Freedoms lost the world is hell bent 12 months til the next cigar 12 months to remember who you are 365 days to see you walk through our door 12 months til we hit the bar 12 months til we pass around the guitar 365 days til you finish your tour

Busy Streets 03:48
Set my eyes on open road A pair of thoughts and dreams carry a heavy load Caring costs more than we think These parts and tires create a fire in every blink As my mind drifts from the wheel Drawn from my heart I analyze the way that I feel I've come to love this time alone. Long passed the place where I'm to face the grinding stone. We bend, but we send, a sense that we won't bleed Broke again, we amend, the hearts and souls we see If I dread, verses read, to say til death do us part Must be left, for the best, within the confines of this car Pass the place they made of gold Stuff my face to cloud disgrace I won't grow old Would you care to realize The challenge in the need to win the nobel prize? We bend, and we send, a sense that we don't see Lost again, chaos renders, what the world will be If I said, verses read, to bottle peace in a jar Must be left, for the best, within the confines of this car As my mind drifts from the wheel Drawn from my heart I analyze the good that I steal We bend and we send, our sense of sight to greed Broken fence, and we reckon, someone's soul will bleed If I'm dead, versus read, to follow lights from afar Must be left, laid to rest, within the confines of this car Bridge I could break out and leave the heartache and the doubt Caring costs more than we think Within the bars that make this car my laurels sink

Boatman 02:40
Have you ever been along The low-lit cobble stone? Too long to carry song It is not so, we will not go Caught between and carried on Only he can know Who we are and where we’ve gone We are not so, we will not go We are not so Left for those that left us all Within a half past day Who is all beyond the wall He will not say, we all must wait Long are the roads to lead us home Short is the path we see Too long to carry song We cannot see, what we will be What we will be He is the ghost on the water He is the salesman of souls We are ghosts of the martyrs We are the names on the scroll He is the ghost on the water He is the salesman of souls We are ghosts of the martyrs We are the names on the scroll

Fall Away 03:40
All of our hopes and dreams are just a minute away Salaamu Alaykum now's the time to be on our way Load up the truck know lady luck is on our side Fall to the top it seems to stop we make our stride Way.. fall away I will go Way… I will stay I will go, plant new seeds to grow I'll move on and pass my wisdom on Wait till we find our place in the world, make our start Run through the clouds we make of the earth, run through the dark What do you do with dreams you catch, corner, make yours Bathe in the glory bathe in the light, bathe evermore Way… fall away I will go Way... I will stay I will go, plant new seeds to grow I'll move on and pass my wisdom on Moving passed the urge to tuck our tale and run Past the rest who tried and left a one and done Give us a reason not to dream of endless love Once upon a time we'll live a life above I will go, plant new seeds to grow I'll move on and pass my wisdom on I will go I'll Move

Dark Circles 04:26
Will you tell me again If you’re sure it’s the end On the day you were gone I knew I’d never move on Will you tell me friend What you saw in the end On the day that I’m gone You’ll know I never moved on Dark black circles on the ground Hands of my ears blocks the sound And I’m falling, yea Bottles deep as any found Hands on my mouth holds it all down And I'm falling, yea I try to chase those good feelings down End up trapped by the Devil’s Crown And I'm falling, yea Mistakes made past won’t let me be Hoping that someone sets me free And I'm falling, yea The stench of sorrow fills the air The fiber of my heart it does tear And I'm falling, yea I hold relief now in my hand Please remember for what I did stand And I'm falling, yea

Thin 04:30
And we are standing at the funeral pyre Where their ashes are burning And we are waiting at the rocks piled high ‘Round the tombstones of reason There are things in the world that are bigger than a man, Like a man and his wife who just couldn't understand Why I stabbed him in the back, before she felt the back of his hand There are things in a life that are bigger than the world Like the day-to-day battle ‘tween a boy and a girl And the gun in her hand I left with a bottle of pills Pray back the tide that rolls Water over rock will take its toll There are things in a life that bigger than us all Like the gunned down victims in my school house hall The youngest of them all, she stood but three feet tall There things for us that are bigger than them Like the lives and the courage of their women and their men And the weapons I made, to sacrifice one for ten. Pray back the tide that rolls Water over rock will take my soul There are things for them that are bigger than us Like the life of a friend and her wheels on a bus And the pain in her hands coin in god we trust Pray back the tide that rolls Water over rock will take its toll.

Without 03:39
It was hard enough, without Her dying her hair blonde again It was hard enough, without Her Lying with a gentle man I wish I could hate her more than anything, hate her for thinking she'll be given all the love she deserves Maybe she's right this time, maybe we're past our prime... I wish I could do what I have always done, take my love for her and turn it in to hate for her sir he's a far better man than me...I guess I'll wait and see How can hope for the best My best is her worst Can I go back to a wish So I can quench this thirst How can hold on to hope That there love will end How will I ever know When we will start again It was hard enough, without her obviously missing me It was hard enough, without Reminders of what could have been I wish I could tell her that her boyfriend was a waste life, good for nothing but to bring her down. But that wouldn't be true at all. I wish I could save her from the evil demon kissing her, but he sings a more saintly sound. I'm not the best choice this time, please keep sending me signs How can hope for the best My best is her worst Can I go back to a wish So I can quench this thirst How can hold on to hope That there love with end How will I ever know When we will start again . How can hope for the best My best is her worst Can I go back to a wish So I can quench this thirst How can hold on to hope That there love with end How will I ever know When we will start again Will I ever know has she slipped away
