Peeling Grey
03:13

Your walls are painted grey
Your room in disarray
It was my home too
Holding the memory of you
Your love has strayed away
Your doors hiding you away
The emptiness that I feel
Holding the ghost of you
My hands have chipped away
Your walls peeling grey
The swine that you engaged
Fueled fire for my rage
Always there to save him
You lost your faith in us
My hands have chipped away
Your walls peeling grey &
My hands have chipped away
Your walls peeling grey
In this rebirth of sorts
In this brand new collapse
In memory of you
My love will last
Hands chipping away
Walls peeling grey
Hands chipping away
Walls peeling grey
Hands chipping away
Walls peeling grey

James Quarterly
04:16

He walks along, along the line
He treads along the great divide
And he knows the price he'll pay
I've prayed for him most everyday
He walks along, along the way
He wants it all in every way
There's no reason for him to stay
There's nothing standing in his way
Trying hard not to feel so bad / Trying hard not to feel so sad
Trying hard not to get so mad / He talks about the great divine
He walks along, along nine lives
He talked about the great divide
Chemical pleasures was his thing of the past
That special drug would not last
He walks along and counts the time
There's no reason for him to hide
Twenty four hours I was on the line
James don't you know that I'm on your side
Trying hard not to feel so bad / Trying hard not to feel so sad
Trying hard not to get so mad / Trying hard not to be so sad
He talked about the great divine
Ho ah, Ho ah, Ho ah
He walks along, along the line / He walks along the great divide
There's no reason for him to stay / There's no reason for him to stay
There's no reason for him to stay / There's no reason for him to stay

The Strip
04:18
|

Take a look around is your body in plastic?
Stand in your cellar firing all your rockets
A symphony of rounds impacting your opponents
Running for the hills won't make much a difference
Oh mother, do you lie awake?
Oh father, do you die another day?
Dying on the strip never minding the poppycock
See her hand body swallowed by the sand
Resort to a treaty or take another stand
(They can see through you)
The incoming army will conquer all the land
(They can see through you)
Oh mother, do you lie awake?
Oh father, what is your fate?
Oh sister, do you die another day?
A symphony of rounds
impacting your opponents
(They can see through you)
The six day war
never really seem to end
(They can see through you)
Retaliation tactics,
your vision is so tragic
(They can see through you)
The strip and the bank,
now there's nothing to defend
(They can see through you)
....They can see through you.

The World's Not Sorry
05:47
|
|||
This is not the time to burn out, This is not the time to fade
Hide from the truth and tune out, This is not the time to break
This is not the time to walk out, This is not the time to flee
Run run run and break away, This is not the time for fear
This is not the time to hide out, This is not the time to cry
Hide your head in quicksand, This is not the time to sink
This is not the time to go away, This is not the time to blink
Run run run and turn away, I heard them say....
They want you to know, This is not a play on words
They want you to know
The world's not really sorry, The world's not really sorry....
This is not the time to give up, This is not the time to fail
Stray from the truth and live a lie, This is not the time to die
This is not the time for compromise, See the truth with open eyes
Run run run and turn away, I heard them say....
They want you to know, This is not a play on words
They want you to know
The world's not really sorry, They're not not really sorry
They're not not really sorry, They're not not really sorry
The world's not really sorry....
This is not the time to burn out, This is not the time to fade
Hide your head like a bird, This is not the time to cry
There's so may people without the words,
There's so many people without the hope,
There so many people without the words, I heard them say....
They want you to know, This is not a play on words
They want you to know
The world's not really sorry, They're not not really sorry
They're not not really sorry, They're not not really sorry
The world's not really sorry....

Far Away
05:32
|
|||
I had to exit off this road
Reached the end again, stopped making sense
I was there in the middle of a dream
Never mind what mattered, it doesn't work no more
I pushed it far away
I had to push it far way
I pushed it far away
I had to push it far way (far away)
Here I am again, lost and never found
Don't you wish you could escape?
Leave it all behind, live through blind fate
So I left the pack of lies
I saw some stragglers along the way
Lost souls in the patches of grey
Fellow travelers set in their ways
It was time to drive the silver machine
I pushed it far way (far away)
I had to push it far way (far way)
The truth I live is very cold
Keeping me alive like a reptile
And it always works when you're not there
The thing is you'll always be alone
That's the secret you'll always be alone
That's the trip you'll always be alone
Yeah, That's the trick you'll always be alone
I pushed it far way (far way)
I had to push it far way (far way)
I pushed it far way (far way)
I had to push it far away (far away
I'll save it for a rainy day......

Sleeping In Dirty Hands
05:17
|

There's an old Japanese man sleeping in your dirty hands
I tried to understand but started making plans
There's an old Japanese man kissing on your filthy bed
I tried to hold your hand but started making plans
I know the truth of what they said happened to you
Dirty tales of abuse, Inflated lies so neatly produced
I sought out the words of a man much older than you
He tried to understand but already made his secret plans
And that poor old Japanese man sleeping in your dirty bed
Never had a chance after you laid out your filthy scam
Back to that older man, he also slept in your famous bed
What I thought was the truth goes against your broken words
There's an old Japanese man sleeping in your dirty hands
I'll never understand but thankfully I made my plans
I know the truth of what they said happened to you
Dirty tales of abuse, Inflated lies so neatly produced
There's an old Japanese man sleeping in your dirty hands
I tried to understand but started making plans
There's an old Japanese man kissing on your filthy bed
I tried to hold your hand but started making plans
I know the truth of what they said happened to you
Dirty tales of abuse, Inflated lies so neatly produced
There's an old Japanese man sleeping in your dirty hands
I'll never understand but thankfully I made my plans
I know the truth of what they said happened to you
Dirty tales of abuse, Inflated lies so neatly produced

Summer Days Unsaid
05:26
|

Summer days are near again
You did well to play it cool
Someone said to be careful
Caught you smiling at me my friend
Hand in hand your head on me
Slide in deep and I'm out of breath
Your sweet smile and lost caress
Summer daze and I'm found again
Where did you go now after your stay?
I'd follow you but I drove away
Where did you with so much unsaid?
Summer days are lost again
I'd play the fool if I told you the truth
Of summer days that I wish for
And the trouble I know we'd make
Would we put all the lovers to shame?
Where did you go now after your stay?
I'd follow you but I drove away
Where did you with so much unsaid?
Summer days are here again......and lost again
Could we ever reach the summer sky?
Would we ever breach that all time high?
Could I ever break the fear of wanting you?
The fear of holding you....
Where did you go now after your stay?
I'd follow you but I drove away
Where did you go with so much unsaid?
Summer days are near again......and found again
Could we ever reach the summer sky?
Would we ever breach that all time high?
Would you ever cut the pretense?
Could I ever break the fear of wanting you?
The fear of holding you?

Young Heart
03:26
|

It's getting hard to explain
It's getting hard to even entertain
This is the story of a young heart
This is the story that nearly tore apart
When we walked across the pier
Shallow water cut through the fear
The gentle breeze of ocean waves
They sang a song across your face
When I was younger I felt just like you
When I was younger I dreamt just like you
It gets bad for you to understand
When all you want is to take my hand
Long distance matters wouldn't make it easy
Long distance callers would drive me crazy!
When I heard your tears on the phone
It was the sound that made me feel old
Don't worry, don't explain
Two hearts can share the blame
I'm sorry for everything
At least there won't be games
It's getting hard to hide the pain
I can't ignore the feeling of shame
I was left in this instance
A young heart left me listless
When I was younger I felt just like you
When I was younger I dreamt just like you
This is the story of a young heart
This is the sound of that young spark
This is the story of a young heart
This is the sound of that young spark

Soulless
02:42
|

Turn around and hide cuz they're coming for you
They're the dark and soulless with nothing to prove
Hide away your fears or they'll prey on you
They're the lost and soulless coming for you
Now I'm kinda worried cuz they're staring at me
Look into their eyes and you'll see what I mean
They don't seem to care about anything
They're the dark and soulless coming for me
Are you soulless?
soulless
soulless
soooull-lah-ha-less!
Suppose I give in and have a drink
Join the ranks of all the bothered cynics
Close my eyes in darkness and the sun fades away
All I have to lose now is my soul!
And I'm soulless
soulless
soulless
soooull-lah-ha-less!
1....2....3....4.....(breakdown)
Soulless
soulless
soulless
soooull-lah-ha-less!
and I'm Soulless
soulless
soulless
soooull-lah-ha-less!
No pain
No hope
No love
Just soulless
Are you soulless?
Are you soulless?
Are you soulless?

The End of the Road
04:52
|
|||
Journey my way down this path / Now it's time to look back
Every trip has and end, Every trip has and end
My eyes are open again / Each turn taken in sin
Driving through desert at night, Driving through desert at night
Years have passed now gone / And her voice is old
Echoing endlessly, echoing endlessly
Seeds have sprouted and grown / We all reap what we sow
Juncture brings clarity, Juncture brings clarity
This is the end of the road of the road, This is the end of the road of the road
This is where the story ends, This is where life begins
This is the end of the road of the road, This is the end of the road of the road
This is where I have control, This is where I let it go
Showing little resistance / Wasn't of my insistence
The spineless lose again, The spineless lose again
It's now in my conscience / Ingrained in my philosophy
There's no going back, There's no going back
This is the end of the road of the road, This is the end of the road of the road
This is where the story ends, This is where life begins
This is the end of the road of the road, This is the end of the road of the road
This is where I have control, This is where I let it go
Driving down that road / Kept me out of control
Many years I'm ashamed, Many years I'm ashamed
Driving through desert at night, Driving through desert at night
Driving through desert at night, Driving through desert at night
This is the end of the road of the road, This is the end of the road of the road
This is where the story ends, This is where life begins
This is the end of the road of the road, This is the end of the road of the road
This is where I have control, This is where I let it go
This is the end of the road

Faith In Forever
04:44
|
|||
You told me you can't place faith in forever
Something abstract so intangible in me
You tell me it's impossible for you
You told me you can't place faith in forever
You told me not to place faith in you
Something you lost something I fought through the years
Many incentives that never saw the day
You told me you can't place faith in forever
Believe in tomorrow but not in forever
You told me not to have faith in love
Live for today, learn to love another day
You told me you can't place faith in forever
You told me you can't place faith in forever
