Some song birds sing it's easy to fly The man with the dollar bill said join us and try Now come drink with me we haven't all night Lay out your name state your pride I politely refrained and bid him goodbye The very next hot day my job left me dry Know your enemies he laughed and he smiled The average is you now your fired My girl ran away, I'm dead broke and tired My band left me in straights of dire Short on money short on friends, or at least the kind i wanna know Open luck enforced by everything you know But what do you own? And what if you don't know? It woke me up at 6 am, i said that i can't live here anymore Because it's all lies they tell me, it's all lies they seem to know I packed it up and left it, headed west on 84 A full afternoon of a way back to stable air You've got the rules to it, break the Ballad of Bill The ruse and the pull of an angel raising hell Give me the sword so i can dis enable Bill And never go back to old, love now your fear em bold Search for your wife she'll do you well Search now your grace em bold, love now your shield unbroken The heaven to heart, the heart reach to hell

We may talk low, laughing in our rue Love we lost and still i feel the need to harbor more Time looks back to a course pending obscured Young and ignorant, next to feel the pull (Youthful ever meant) Select a fire to that black lagoon key to me right now All of this so far away, near to me that trusted sound Solid walls fade to dust now To their ears, what they fighting for Mercy lying witness to us all Take our hands off the reigns, tear our rooted past mistakes Hallmark hands, free and clear, will awaken to the day And will these foolish fears condense to feel the rain? Hold seasons to the jaw, times a patient game Fictions over fall, what were we saving Find a meaning in it all, forsake your pride and name The castles made of foam, a port to save in A life worth naming A life worth saving (x3)

Crossed between the mudded maze and carry the weighted albatross Parents caught their blessings on us Fashion light to time and space, caressed the crash of mothers fate Mattered not the moon, collapsed unto itself All the way to Mars we go, and lost it all unto myself Hold the way for major Tom The Muddied Maze is coming back too soon Show your memory how, more to life you see, gold in Mary Magdalene's house Stand in boats on bow, rush to bury me, image ferried towards the house Crossed between the mudded maze and carry the weighted albatross Parents caught their blessings on us Fashion light to time and space, caressed the crash of mothers fate Mattered not the moon, collapsed unto itself Open up that reality, show your memory how More to life what you say to see, Mary Magdalene's gold Open up that reality, taking peace and taking aim A feat or foreign fame, a point of view Torch the ties following to ancient sovereign eyes Mystery abide, mystery to fade to life Cord and kites, harboring the dream, a to chance to find Mission alive, mission alive now

War at the till now their pleased Wearing chain mail killing for change Chalice of thrill on it's knees Reach out for love a foreign exchange And it's so uncertain affirmations work so lovely Let's all recklessly abide or bye bye, bye bye Lift up the veil unhand me It's not your love i need to stay Feelings impale around me What's this illusion in my chair And it's called the curtain wrapped around a mirror that we hold Lets all, carefully decide

Keep better stance, forward romance Brittle heart of little faith They say top soil to you, till derivative solves Greater homage to the place For me it speaks of days a whispering wind away Your silence says it all Watch my reasons as they're going toward the shore everyday Arm the seasons time to change the cold allure, the cold i followed there Huddled treason, a sense of something new 18 hydroplaning in a world unto Rendition grants tectonic taps Bailer even toward the grave They said you'll never be Good luck but not from me Your smile said it everyday For me it speaks of days a whispering wind away, your violence says it all Watch my reasons as they're going out the door everyday Calm the seasons time to change the cold allure, the cold i followed there Officially i let worlds like ours collide 18 hydroplaning in a world outside And i hear that call roaring down the hall (let out quick with legends thick) The tales of beyond Parish needs exhale everything knowing that will light my alibi when i said your strong Your strong

95 Pages 04:37
Talk less cold please forgive me i'm told You climb the races that lighten me up dead inside the room I said i got a deal on you i'll wait, although we're miles and miles & miles apart Time for a few then its late i guess we'll have to sleep on this till morn I just want to find favor in your eyes Call on my number for you alive I thought you were with me, let it thrive Folding in cover for you and i I just want to find favor Almost your thrill just to put me in your hell Few find the faces that would bring a heart into a home I said I've got a deal or be it fate, i never wanna wake up where you are It's time for a few then it's late, a play to you, a puppet you perform I just want to find favor in your eyes Call on my number for you alive I thought you were with me, you let it die Folding in cover that you deny 95 pages the truth unwinds Speak to me softly, i'm bruised in mind I thought you could hear me, define the lies Arms of another in you i find I just want to find favor

Conundrum 05:44
Shake hands with the sun as it rises, lately Shake the cold i felt last night C'est la vie monsieur, and wish it away So much effort to save this face But that was just such a long while to go caught in the rain Shining in scales of passion flowing down, pardoned all the way It's a new day moving the mountain parked inside your brain Half just as well, half toward the honest will, always a way You pray Once i walked deep in the right Wrong beside me shyly smiling C'est la vie amor, can you explain Why there's so much effort to get away And it's a new day moving the mountain parked inside your brain Half just as well, half toward the honest will, almost today You pray Bye love you don't see in me anything why am i wasting my time Caricature premonitions of her forward coming to ruin my life All night, All day
