Human Being

I think I’m sinking into dust again
I start to wonder if it’s all pretend
I feel my mind slowly slipping away
Caught in the middle of a cosmic haze
And I just can’t seem to win
No matter how I try to blend in
I don’t know what it means
To be just another mortal human being
But I like what I see
I think I’m falling into fear again
I get to feeling like it’s all gonna end
Sometimes I stumble into something new
And get to thinking I can make it through
Though I just can’t seem to win
No matter how I try to blend in
I don’t know what it means
To be just another mortal human being
But I like what I see

Lost in Confusion

You say it's all an illusion baby
You say it's all in my head
You think I've been on the streets too long
and it's a miracle that I'm not dead
'Cause I know where to run
I know where to hide
All my friends are rallied by my side
Know where to run
Know where to hide
Some of them left onto the other side
Lost in confusion
head in the stars
birds overhead
carry heavy hearts
lost in confusion
head in the stars
birds overhead carry purple hearts
You say it's all an illusion baby
I say it's all in your head
I think you been on the streets too long
and it's a miracle that you're not dead
'Cause you know where to run
you know where to hide
All your friends are rallied by your side
Know where to run, know where to hide
Some of them left onto the other side
Lost in confusion
head in the stars
birds overhead
carry heavy hearts
lost in confusion
head in the stars
birds overhead carry purple hearts
you're not special, you're not right
but you sure have a point to prove
wrapped up in a blanket of innocence
as your fighting for youth
Lost in confusion
head in the stars
birds overhead
carry heavy hearts
lost in confusion
head in the stars
birds overhead carry purple hearts

Red Sun

Red sun in a setting sky
I'll be out all night
Stirring trouble getting high
I know I'm alive
White pills and a fancy name
try to bring me down
No one here understands my feet have left the ground
And if you catch me falling
Falling out of touch
Don't take me from the ones who I love
And I will hold my head up high
High above the rest
cuz all these setbacks are just a test
new day on the horizon
suddenly I see
A change in atmosphere has led me to believe
I don't ask too much from you
maybe for the best
Will you help me save the world
I plan on nothing less
And if you catch me falling
Falling out of touch
Don't take me from the ones who I love
And I will hold my head up high
High above the rest
cuz all these setbacks are just a test
None of you can understand
the thoughts that race inside my head
I don't expect you to see my view
I only hope you will see this through
'cause none of you can understand
the thoughts that race inside my head
I don't expect you to see my view
I only hope you will see this through
And if you catch me falling
Falling out of touch
Don't take me from the ones who I love
And I will hold my head up high
High above the rest
Cause all these setbacks are just a test

Empty Conversations
03:36
|

|
I do what I can
To help you understand
But you don't have a clue
And There's nothing I can do
It's hard to comprehend
With enemies for friends
If you can't see the truth
I don't know the use
Maybe I'm just scared of facing isolation
Maybe I don't want to hear your explanation
Could be I'm alive and I don't have the patience
Or maybe I'm just tired of empty conversations
It's taken me a while
To learn to fake a smile
But I don't care to be
A puppet on a string
I know how to please
Everyone but me
Somewhere in between
Is everything I need
Maybe I'm just scared of facing isolation
Maybe I don't want to hear your explanation
Could be I'm alive and I don't have the patience
Or maybe I'm just tired of empty conversations

Motive
03:41

I'm fucking up
I'm taking the easy way out again
and I'm unstable
All out of luck
I'm making a jump to the hard stuff
and that's no fable
What's your motive
who's your lucky charm in white
Are you moving or you standing still in fright?
I'm letting go
I'm falling to see if you'll catch me
Or watch me drown
I need to know
Will you make a promise to love me
If I come down
What's your motive
who's your lucky charm in white
Are you moving or you standing still in fright?
I don't mind the darkness
If you can wait on me
If I got what I'm using
to let me know I'm free
I don't mind the darkness
If you can wait on me
If I got what I'm using
to let me know I'm free
What's your motive
who's your lucky charm in white
Are you moving or you standing still in fright?

Peace of Mind
03:28
|

I’ve been waiting for sunbeams to follow me
Out of the darkness where I always seem to be
Isolated with comfort in misery
I just don’t understand what it’s like to believe
I have always been caught in the in between
Sometimes it takes all my strength just to stop and breath
I’m alright with walking blind
Just give it some more time
All I want from this life
All the money can’t buy peace of mind
I’ve been looking for answers in symmetry
Just to find more than what lies in your sympathy
All I know is this world is a mystery
Why do I feel so alive when I fall and bleed
I have learned to pick myself up by my feet
Just to find love was there all along on my knees
I’m alright with walking blind
Just give it some more time
All I want from this life
All the money can’t buy peace of mind
