My Mysterious Soul
03:18
|

Been given a life only you will know
No way to tell what lurks inside others
You can't be living this world that I see
YOU CAN'T BE ME !
This is my life and these are my thoughts
This is my time to dream . . . . to be alive
This is my life and these are my thoughts
I live alone as one with my own reason
I'm alone with my soul
MY MYSTERIOUS SOUL !
It's too deep for you to know
No one can play my role
I'm in control of my . . . .
My Mysterious Soul !

And I Wonder
07:07

Is now a time so strange to think that reason
This purpose for all beings
Why are we living to date
I start getting thoughts like these And I Wonder
What's that meaning to life, four seasons
And so many trees with their sometimes colored leaves
Life will always keep me thinking
It's got me, And I Wonder right now
Do you think it just might be we're only slaving to the maker
Serving no real purpose
But must that purpose be out there
It's only time that will tell
It's time that holds our futures, embedded within us all
They're just so deep within our souls
Being way too high to decide
I get this rage inside of me and I start crying out to thy
Come on Creator, let us all see thy rise
Would you ask thy, Creator Why, why, why....
Why is it this, that is such a place so dark and cold
That should seem so never-ending, so dreamed
I think Im just too eager to know
And I Wonder if I'll have time
To keep zoning out, in the sky, when Im high
While starry-eyed I'm hearing those forgotten cries
But never fail to realize, at sometime, we all must die
There is no other light, that'll glimmer so fuckin' bright
Through these drifting clouds tonight
I have seen so many visions
It's all too clear to me
I've heard screaming
Some sounds I couldn't believe
And I Wonder about the stars in the sky
Resting such wicked patterns in the air
They are constellations, but why
Could they hold some other meaning
Maybe a language written in the sky
A language yet to decipher And I Wonder why, why, why....
Why some seem to look like they're fading away
And I Wonder!
Cause some aren't as bright
Oh I really wish someone could tell me
Cause the more and more I stare at the trees
The more and more I see the moon as it shines off it's leaves
The more and more I stare into this sky And I Wonder....
Where does it ever seem to end?!

Party Nights

We Party Nights until the morning
You should come sometime
Hang out and you will see
It's all we ever want to be
Creating music sets us free
From the rat race of society!
But there's a price you'll have to pay
You pay with your life
You pay with your soul
You pay with your body as it grows old
You pay with your life
You pay with your heart
Cause the only love you'll know are songs
It's a lonely fuckin' road....
We Party Nights until the morning
You should come sometime
Hang out and you will see!

Dead Inside
01:11
|

I want to laugh, but instead I cry
And I don't know why does life have to be like this
Cause every day is a fuckin' mess
And I don't know why
I want to live, but I feel dead
I feel so dead inside
So Dead Inside
I want to laugh, but instead I cry
And I don't know why does life have to be like this
Cause every day is a fuckin' joke
And the joke's on me
It'll always be!

Discarded

Fifteen hundred miles of lies
From your lips to my ears
If only it was sooner that I realized
Your bitter side
Through those evil eyes
Of the Fire sign!
It wasn't my heart
It wasn't my soul that you craved
It wasn't my heart
It wasn't my soul like you said it was
My heart and soul was thrown away
Discarded like a piece of trash
Too poor to be wanted
Now I just refuse to laugh
You're ruthless and black hearted
Anger and hate engorge my thoughts
I'll never trust again
Time to rebuild those barricades
As my heart's been shattered in pain
Discarded like a piece of trash!

It's In My Mind

I can't count how many times
But I keep thinking this shit
It's In My Mind
I don't remember when I died
Cause I sure don't feel alive
Anymore

Hanging On
01:43
|

I just can't seem to
Escape these feelings that are following me
Following me all around
Maybe, someday
I'll break these thoughts that keep bringing me down
I just got to fight it, there's no sense in hiding
I've got to keep trying
Otherwise I'm dying!
I'm dying
I'm dying
I'm dying
I'm dying the day I stop trying!

Moments

Everything you do is placed into time
Moments come and go just as fast as you will die !
This is where we started out
I understand when you cry out loud
Since you still can't even see
Some day your eyes will open wide
There's a whole fuckin' world out there I think you should see
But even when you do I know you might not believe
Now some new found knowledge gets a place in memory
I didn't know someday I'll be forced to travel on
Being too young to know, so I was never told
As I'm getting older, this world just keeps on changing
I'm nothing like I was a few years ago
I think I'm getting wiser but it never seems to help
Whenever I'm alone I deprive myself
I'm faking how I feel, but feeling what is real
Sometimes my eyes just don't like what they see
When they're looking back at me
There's always something that I'll need to change
Everything you do is placed into time
Moments come and go just as fast as you will die !

To Those Who'll Pray
03:40

I'm so sick of it all
Don't dare think these sounds are evil
What do you say To Those Who'll Pray
What are you praying for
Think about it
Look at the obvious
You want to be living a good life
You want to be fulfilling your dreams
You want to be living out your happiness
Cause living in bliss is how we all want to be seen !
As long as it's on the silver screen
Or tuned into your own privacy
YOU WILL NOW ALL BELIEVE ANYTHING !
I see too much stupidity !
Can't you see if it's money that is dreamed
All evil will always remain to be seen
So who's to say you must live your life this way
You can't do that
Filling my head with untrue supposedly facts
To be living life feeling so unfree
Just tell those mother fuckers in the FCC
FUCK YOU !
&
FUCK YOUR REALITY !
