Walk Away 05:10

Lyrics: Thelonius: I've come to see The lies you've sewn And turned away to paths unknown To find a place To call my own Embrace the light That I've been shown Ryan: You might want to ask Why you suffer Is it something beyond your control Or is it self-inflicted? I live with a disease I live and I learn But you can't seem To get out of your own way Sabotaging yourself Silently... Thelonius: I've come to see The lies you've sewn And turned away to paths unknown To find a place To call my own Embrace the light That I've been shown Ryan: We tried to help To get you to look To get you to laugh To get you to love But you don't know the meaning And you never will you never will you never will you never will And I've had enough Of being A martyr I don't owe you anything Anymore I'll Walk away... Walk away... This Time Walk away Walk Away Walk away Walk away Walk away Walk away Walk away Thelonius: I've come to see The lies you've sewn And turned away to paths unknown To find a place To call my own Embrace the light That I've been shown

Ryan Spent forever Turning myself inside out Broke out of my cell Only to wake up in hell Now they want to seize All my hopes and my dreams Why can't I escape This human disease? Alone again in my own world Here by choice but not by ignorance Gotta take a vacation from all the things That would take my better nature And sometimes I feel Like god is mocking me (na na na) Thelonius: The whole world is screaming "come drown with me" Let's all be part of the never ending cycle of pain and misery Please don't recover, we need you to suffer. It keeps us from feeling ill at ease The truth of the matter, is truth doesn't matter We want to believe what we believe Come drown in our sea of lunacy Ryan: Sometimes I feel Like god is mocking me (na na na)

Ryan: Waiting for the day When we can all Remember the signs Outside these castle walls of mine Riches for the blind Do you dare look inside, Do you dare look inside? Thelonius: Outside eyes They accede the lies In disguise all the shadows rise But soon the day will come to pass Our ascending forms will firmly grasp The yields of all the harvests past We walk the path Our dreams defined The corridor To coalesce our minds Ryan: Waiting for the day When we can all Remember the signs Outside these castle walls of mine Riches for the blind Do you dare look inside, Do you dare look inside? Thelonius: Crashing waves Lasting endless days Gasping for that elusive breath The coming tides will bring the purifying death Cleanse our souls and rise above The crushing depths the past submerged Our crossing to the end We sail above the sky The fractured world We dared defy Ryan: Maybe... I'm just..... Getting old... In my mind..... In my mind... In my mind... In.....My.....Mind Just getting old In my mind All the time In my mind...(In my mind) In my mind (I die every day) In my mind... Waiting for the day When we can all Remember the signs Outside these castle walls of mine Riches for the blind Do you dare look inside, Do you dare look inside? Waiting for the day When we can all Remember the signs Outside these castle walls of mine Riches for the blind Do you dare look inside, Do you dare look inside?

Thelonius: The teardrops cascading across the sky The memories of old wounds refusing to dry We're lost in this nightmare fantasy And trying to find a place where we can becoming the light in the darkest of seas And shining amidst all this strife and disease The shelter that shields from the unbroken rain That's forged through all the scarring and the pain Ryan: Is this heaven I close my eyes And let this song Carry me Away Far away. Far away. Thelonius: The teardrops cascading across the sky The memories of old wounds refusing to dry We're lost in this nightmare fantasy And trying to find a place where we can becoming the light in the darkest of seas And shining amidst all this strife and disease The shelter that shields from the unbroken rain That's forged through all the scarring and the pain Ryan: Tears are falling Down... In The Rain Tears are falling Down... Waves of emotion Pouring out of me Swept away Love is lost In the rain... Tears are falling Now... Thelonius: The teardrops cascading across the sky The memories of old wounds refusing to dry We're lost in this nightmare fantasy And trying to find a place where we can Becoming the light in the darkest of seas (Tears are falling) And shining amidst all this strife and disease (Tears are Falling) The shelter that shields from the unbroken rain (Tears are falling) That's forged through all the scarring and the pain (Tears are falling down)

Ryan: Today was like any other day Woke up feeling only... Would you think less of me If I admitted I was lonely? Catch myself before I break in two But it's nothing new...and The pain is all that's real. Push myself to try again But there's too many times I've been let down And it wears me thin Tell me, what's under your skin? A husk of a human. Ryan & Thelonius: Are you looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. And that's what it steals... Are you looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. And that's what it steals... And that's what it steals... Ryan: Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Oh, oh-oh... Oh, oh-oh-ooooooh... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... Tired of your empty lies Don't be surprised By the robot in front of your eyes Your actions align And design That person you so despise And you could spend all time Convincing yourself otherwise All I'm left to do is fantasize --- Just like you. It never changes... And I'll still be lonely... It never (never) changes... And I'll still be lonely... Never (never) changes... Ryan & Thelonius: Are you looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. And that's what it steals... Are you looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. Looking for something? Love into nothing. And that's what it steals... And that's what it steals... Ryan: Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine... Oh, oh-oh... Oh, oh-oh-ooooooh... Counterfeit Time... It's Not Mine...

Lyrics: From the ashes Picking up All the pieces Of who I used to be All these people Talk of life When they don't know the meaning One more time... I'll try. One more time... We'll try You...and I... You and I..... Gotta show me something Can't all be for nothing It's something That's stuck in my head (Stuck in myyyyyy head) Oh Karmageddon It's stuck in my head It's something that's stuck in my head The Truth can't be bargained with And though you can run from me I'm not chasing you, anymore. Wherever you go, you know... There's no hiding from reality Die on your feet, don't live on your knees... Gotta show me something Can't all be for nothing It's coming Sooner than you think Oh Karmageddon Stuck in my head It's something that's stuck in (It's something that's stuck in my head) And some day... I can look back on it all And laugh to myself So many people flaunt their ignorance Trading trinkets For eternity and infinite possibility It's hard to take them seriously Lead a horse to water, But can't make it drink. Tell them the answer, But can't make them think. This world... Is on a collision course with Insanity Gotta show me something Can't all be for nothing It's coming Sooner than you think Oh Karmageddon Stuck in my head It's something that's stuck in (It's something that's stuck in my head) You can change the world If you start with yourself (By changing yourself) You can change (You can change...) Any time you want to You can change... You can change. (Any time...) God has shown me something It isn't all for nothing It's coming Sooner than you think (Sooner than you think) Oh Karmageddon It's coming Sooner than you think (Sooner than you think) Oh Karmageddon (Karmageddon) Oh Karmageddon It's coming Sooner than you think (Sooner than you think) Oh Karmageddon It's coming Sooner than you think (Sooner than you think) Oh Karmageddon (Oh Karmageddon)

Spirit of You 06:21

Ryan: This darkness, I'm Atlas... This is my stone. They call me... The King-- of sorrow.. This crown-- of thorns... Haunts tomorrow..... Forever, waiting...in limbo... Losing everything... I know. Thelonius: Falling down, I cannot escape The pressure builds And suffocates all my feelings of joy Evaporate into stagnant air That clings to my face I want to be free from all that this world Has wrought on me And bathe in the light of the memories But now they seem so empty But I can rekindle the flame And change The faults can be rearranged into something new Into something true, there's no going back to the old point of view Ryan: So familiar, yet so unknown I claw and carve a hole Using everything I know To let light into where I should go This darkness, I'm Atlas, And this is my stone. I bleed in ways that you can't see And every day... Takes a bit out of me. Every day... I bleed in ways that you can't see... And every day... Takes a bit out of me. And every day... Takes a bit out of me. Every day... Takes a bit out of me. I don't mean to sound defeated 'Cause even though it wears on me And shadows swallow me alive I come back stronger Every time And that's one more time That I can find The things that remind When I think I'm past The "finished" line My purpose renewed In the spirit of you The spirit of you, The spirit of you...

Lyrics: Ryan: Who Tends To this garden of decay Mysterious stranger Death is my name Ripping away (Ripping away) And carries the pain Thelonius: Don't pass me by Just stay awhile I want to try to be all I can The feeling I've found Can never be lost Just stay with me until I wake again. Ryan: Once more This cycle goes 'round All becomes clear When you're no longer in fear Learn what matters most As it's fading away... Thelonius: Lost in the shroud Concealed in a dream Your voice reaches out to silence the screams I search through the night hoping to find The life that I once called mine Ryan: Spent All my love Sowing seeds So that they can grow So that they can grow Thelonius: Don't pass me by Just stay awhile I want to try to be all I can The feeling I've found Can never be lost Just stay with me until I wake again. Lost in the shroud Concealed in a dream (Sweet Stranger) Your voice reaches out to silence the screams I search through the night hoping to find (Sweet Stranger) The life that I once called mine Both: Don't pass me by (Sweet Stranger) Just stay awhile I want to try to be all I can (My sweet stranger) The feeling I've found Can never be lost Just stay with me until I wake again.

Ryan: Can you let me know That I have won When all is said and done Soon I'll be gone A shadow cast On everything and everyone The smiling moon and the crying sun Thelonius: Every day when you wake What is it that you see? Are these reflections of yourself? Or something else entirely? It pulls you into such a state It's hard to escape But don't let it drag you down Ryan: I'm falling Can you hear me calling? Can you let me know That I have won When all is said and done Soon I'll be gone A shadow cast On everything and everyone The smiling moon and the crying sun Thelonius: Every night as you lie There is uncertainty How do you trust yourself When you can't trust what you see? All the world is filled with lies But don't let it darken your sunrise And though the clouds obscure the skies Soon a better day will grace your eyes Ryan: Is this the end? Or just the beginning of our story... Can you let me know That I have won When all is said and done Soon I'll be gone A shadow cast On everything and everyone The smiling moon And the crying sun The smiling moon And the crying sun... The smiling moon And the crying sun The smiling moon And the crying sun! The smiling moon And the crying sun The smiling moon And the crying sun! The smiling moon And the crying sun The smiling moon And the crying sun........

Lyrics: Ryan: Shine On Me A new hope A new dream A new Destination Thelonius: As the pages keep on turning A new chapter is about to unfold Can someone tell me if you've heard this before Soon the day will be here when we no longer have to worry everything that you fear will be no more Ryan: Counting the days Till we bask In the glow and warmth of the sun Thelonius: In the dark I can remember The fleeting moments As they fade away And give way to new light That cleanses the shadows Breathing life Into the dawn of a world beyond Just hold on to those that you treasure and feed your soul with all of their love Embrace the winds of change as the age winds down The house of cards will be falling Can you answer your true calling and live the life that you were meant for? Ryan: Counting the days Till we bask In the glow and warmth of the sun Thelonius: In the dark I can remember The fleeting moments As they fade away And give way to new light That cleanses the shadows Breathing life Into the dawn of a world beyond Ryan: Have you started living yet? Believe me, I know The pain of this world But there's a reason we've been called here Imperfect in my service, I give all my love Till the day of liberation is here. Stand in the warmth of the sun Stand in the warmth of the sun...with me Stand in the warmth of the sun...with me Stand in the warmth of the sun... Come and find peace Come and find peace with me Come and find... Come and find peace with me (and be free) Come and find...(and be free) Come and find...peace.....

Lyrics: Verse (Thelonius): I know it seems like a mess But don't let it get you depressed Take it from me When it feels like your whole world is upside down Just stand on the ground And take a look around The truth can only be found If your mind is sound Chorus (Ryan): There's a quiet rain on top of me Plant my roots among the trees Start my journey inwardly And practice what I'm meant to be Striving for that inner peace Striving for that inner peace In me..... Inner peace Inner peace In me..... Verse (Thelonius): Trying to find my way back home It never fails to leave me in despair The times when I have felt the most alone Reminded of your absence everywhere But the future is looking brighter And the way forward is obscured no more Every day is a chance for a new beginning Chorus (Ryan): There's a quiet rain on top of me Plant my roots among the trees Start my journey inwardly And practice what I'm meant to be Striving for that inner peace Striving for that inner peace In me..... Inner peace Inner peace In me..... Bridge: Let it all Fall away Let it all Fall away If it seems there is no direction Look inside yourself And you may be surprised At the treasures you can find In the silence of your mind Chorus: There's a quiet rain on top of me Plant my roots among the trees Start my journey inwardly And practice what I'm meant to be Striving for that inner peace Striving for that inner peace In me..... Inner peace Inner peace In me..... Outro: The shackles of fear from the wizard Only work if you live In the brain of the lizard Move forward and realize what they are Illusion to thwart Your rise to the stars The shadows flee From where true love and light succeeds From where true love and light succeeds From where true love and light succeeds

Thelonius: This mind can design And realize through countless trials Our dreams materialized in our skies In our skies Ryan: What we need is all around us Piece by piece and day by day The foundation is forming So much you can't see From the outside looking in Close your eyes and imagine to begin Thelonius: This mind can design And realize through countless trials Our dreams materialized in our skies In our skies Ryan: The reward is only equal to the risk We're not here to fix what is broken And as the bigger picture comes into view You'll forget all that you thought you knew Doubt us while you can, we won't relent Time will be our greatest monument. Thelonius: This mind can design And realize through countless trials Our dreams materialized in our skies In our skies This mind can design And realize through countless trials Our dreams materialized in our skies In our skies

Ryan: I used to take too much pride In being right But as my ego melts away, I remembered I just want Everyone to feel The love that I felt All I wanted you to feel Is the purpose that I found One step at a time One step Tracing mine One step at a time Thelonius: People spend all this focus Tearing each other down But no one gets ahead While we're holding each other back Now is the time To lift each other up Now is the time To transcend the illusion Of our divide Ryan: I used to take too much pride in being right But as my ego melts away, I remembered I just want everyone to feel The love that I felt All I wanted you to feel Is the purpose that I found One step at a time One step tracing mine Thelonius: In this world of uncertainty And crippling doubt I hear you calling me Moving forward Whether I run Or if I have to crawl If the walls are closing in That just means I have to go through them all Ryan: I used to take too much pride in being right But as my ego melts away, I remembered I just want everyone to feel The love that I felt All I wanted you to feel Is the purpose that I found One step at a time One step tracing mine It hurts to admit, but I can't do it alone So God help me, we'll turn this world around But I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll forgive you, (if you forgive me) I'll hold onto you, (if you hold onto me) I'll lift you up, (if you lift up me.) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll forgive you, (if you forgive me) I'll hold onto you, (if you hold onto me) I'll lift you up, (if you lift up me.) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) I'll stand by you, (if you stand by me) (if you stand by me) (if you stand by me) (if you stand by me)
