Green Light 04:46
Waiting for the green light to come on Will I be waiting all night long? Stuck in the mirror; trying to see it clearer I can feel the blood rushing through me I feel it in my bones and it's stuck in my teeth I'll send it across the nation station to station Then all the days they turn into the unforgiving nights and all we need has been nailed down to the ground every time she sails across my colorless sky everything comes crashing down Everyone's dressed in their Sunday best but I'm still hungover I confess Why did we go that far? She landed in the ER Shot for the moon and now it's gone this is what you wanted all along the sea won't carry you no matter what you do now. All the days they turn into the unforgiving nights and all we need has been nailed down to the ground every time she sails across my colorless sky everything comes crashing down All the days come crashing down on top of me All the days come crashing down on top of me All the days they turn into the unforgiving nights and all we need has been nailed down to the ground every time she sails across my colorless sky everything comes crashing down All the days come crashing down on top of me All the days come crashing down on top of me All the days come crashing down on top of me All the days come crashing down on top of me

Catharsis 03:42
The dogs are going to town while I rock in this chair dreaming a fable The children sleep sound while the restless wind it kicks up dirt My mind's asleep now cause the days they never seem to tire So where are you now if you won't come home I'll lock the door. So what happens when the hourglass runs out of sand Will the earth break forth and show us all we've done wrong I'm getting tired of walking down such a narrow path I'll sing a song for you to carry on to carry on It's only one beat too many with a tired refrain I just could not think of anything to say to you to say to you at the end of this day, I'm just lost in a reverie entwined with catharsis and woe. [Chorus 2] It's only one beat too many with a tired refrain I just could not think of anything to say to you to say to you at the end of this day, I'm just lost in a reverie entwined with catharsis and woe.

When I was, a young boy I used to cast my net much further Now all I wanna do is stay in bed So tell me, who should I be? A vagrant son, a lucid dreamer Strike matches to wicker so I can burn again An old dream she wrote to me such silver words they spoke so softly and I never wanna feel that way again So throw me to the open sea and radio waves come crash into me and sink me to slumber once again "Wake up!" You fell into a dream without me "Wake up!" Throw away memories of eighteen "Wake up! Grow up!" But I don't wanna fall into that fantasy of you and me again Everything that I see is real and everyone I know can feel just the way I used to be I'll let you know when I know: that all that glitters is not gold. Come catch me when my spirit falls again. Can't you see it's when you glow and when you shimmer you're not alone the weight gets lighter so come out and play What heat will keep us when there's none? When everything under the sun and stars eventually finally fades away like me but I...

Grounded in the hanger wings all beaten, battered I've tended to my wounds and cleaned the blood that I've splattered Been here for a year finally we're clear to depart Let me take you to the sky Our time's in short supply The scars and holes left by foes Can't stop me from the path I chose Let's forget the tears and woes today they're just troubles for yesterday Anxiety creeps up on me like the grinds within my coffee I've taken too much rest and the jitters in my chest are racing like the sunlight on the ocean's crest ohhhhh Let me take you to the sky Our time's in short supply The scars and holes left by foes Can't stop me from the path I chose Let's forget the tears and woes today they're just troubles for yesterday The engine's hot, the props are running, The tank is full, the guns are gunning, Times have changed, the clouds are gone, I have changed, we must go on. The world is so beautiful from way up here All our troubles seem to up and disappear The engine's hot, the props are running The tank is full, the skies are stunning, Times have changed, the clouds are gone, I have changed, we must go on.

How long will we stay up in the air? Before we dive under the sea the despair? We'll take and visit without a doubt We'll keep flying at least for now

Liar 06:45
The walls torn down and the spiders start crawling right through my skin The wheels stop turning painting shadows on the ceiling is it too much to ask for some rest Let me know if I’m wrong I’ve been searching for that arrow at the end of the road But maybe just maybe I’m a liar and I have no place to go no place to call home Late-night drive and the rain is pouring heavy over my soul I take my time lurking all over frantically life takes its toll There’s nothing on the radio anymore spinning the dial like a pinwheel without hope But maybe just maybe there is something out there for me to know for me to hold I gotta get that ringing outta my ears Yeah we’ve gotta stop the noise Gotta fight through all the goddamn tears Yeah we’ve gotta stop the noise Why are you singing at the moon Yeah we’ve gotta stop the noise Pass the stairs on the way up We’ve gotta stop the noise Whoa-oh-oh Whoa-oh I gotta get that ringing outta my ears Yes we will stop the noise Don’t worry I can dry my tears Yes we will stop the noise Yes we will stop the noise Whoa-oh-oh Whoa-oh

Wedding Song 04:42
She's waiting in the chapel for her groom to arrive Oh what she didn't know is that he'll never show Floating in the hotel pool slowly drifting away What was meant to be has ended suddenly Oh We're just fools in love waiting for our stars above Oh it's all crystal clear when I'm here with you When hearts unfold a love it grows a life hard to sustain a fact they did not miss and yet it has come to this the piano's trill does not pay the bills so her father's dogs came and they took him away Oh We're just fools in love waiting for our stars above Oh it's all crystal clear when I'm here with you Oh We're just fools in love waiting for our stars above Oh it's all crystal clear when I'm here with you

Ulysses 06:25
When the sun is gone the moon hangs low She casts a long shadow of tear for fear that you’re never coming home Like Ulysses endless sea keeps you far away from us for so long while we wait for your Song to play on the airwaves through midsummer nights the blusterous fall and when you’re gone... She tells me all the dreams of you and every single word and color bleeds through Can you come carry the light on that burning sunrise you appear Are you really here? When the moon is full she casts her magic on the slumbering world so wide yet I can’t hide From the monsters and magicks below my own bastard skin and are you coming? While we Wait for the day to break on this town, she’s colored in blue cellophane lights and when it’s right She tells me all the dreams of you and every single word and color bleeds through Can you come carry the light on that burning sunrise you appear Are you really here? Sail me down I am the water I’ll lead you Sail me down I am the water I’ll lead you Sail me down I am the water I’ll lead you home.
