1. An Idle Mind
2. Draw the Line
Where do we draw the line
When our lives are so close
Every time I look
I see you staring back
But is it me you see
Or some shadow of the past
Are our lines drawn in sand
Will the tides wash them away
Or are they carved in stone
To weather the test of time
Where do we draw the line
Is the blind leading the blind
Lost, can we ever find
Where to draw the line
Are we to be content, to live our lives this way
This line that runs between us, and holds us at bay
At times it's obscured, other times it fades
But I long to keep it blurred, if just to touch your face
Where do we draw the line
Is the blind leading the blind
Lost, can we ever find
Where to draw the line
Where do we draw the line
I think the blind's leading the blind
Lost, we can never find
Where we draw that line
3. Et Tu Brute
In his eyes he's sincere
But betrayal I fear
Has cloaked his intentions
We've been good friends for years
Through laughter and tears
Reasons to live elude me
How could I have not seen
What a fool I have been
What could I have been thinking
Through all the half truths
Shared dreams of our youths
Obviously meant nothing
I've died inside
And I'm asking why
Why did it have to come to this?
Et tu Brute?, together against the world
Et tu Brute?, side by side we could conquer
Et tu Brute?, red faith runs down my back
Et tu Brute?, I was dead before the blade ever crossed my neck
I have died inside
He betrayed and he lied
Words can't explain the pain
With heartache and regret
It's hard to forget
With the knife still in my back
My stare cast to the floor
Just a shell, nothing more
Ripped my life away
Et tu Brute?, together against the world
Et tu Brute?, side by side we could conquer
Et tu Brute?, red faith runs down my back
Et tu Brute?, I was dead before the blade ever crossed my neck
4. Cross the Line
As I sit here
And try to ease my mind
Heart so heavy
No direction to my life
Hope has faded, My life is jaded
Now the question is
Will I be alone?
I wish I could
Fill the emptiness
Just one step
I feel I got to...
Cross... the... line...
I have crossed the line
Shall I be denied
'til the end of time
My every hearts desire
Right there for, the taking
Risk of my heart... breaking
Never be alone
It counts for something
Just one step, I have...
Crossed... the... line...
I just sat there
So much on my mind
Heart was heavy
Chaos was my life
Hope had faded, Life was jaded
And the question was
Would I be alone
Had just one wish
To fill the emptiness
Just that step
I felt I had to...
Cross... the... line...
So I crossed the line
I won't be denied
For all time
My every hearts desire
Right there for, the taking
Risked my heart, breaking
I'll never be alone
It counts for something
One last step
Too late, I have...
Crossed... the... line...
5. Breakdown
I can't believe what I've done
I fucked it all up again
The world is closing in
I'm starting to break down
I can't take this right now
Gotta get through it some how
And I've fallen so low, I'm not proud
I'm startin' to break down
I'm startin' to break down
I'm losing my mind
I'm losing my soul
I'm losing myself
I'm losing control
Looking back, as my life unfolds
I'm losing it all, I'm losing it all
What was I thinking
Made a mess of everything
My spirits are so low
And my will is gone
I feel like I've gone to hell
I suppose it's just as well
You reap what you sow
I'll get what's coming
I'll get what's coming to me
I'm losing my mind
I'm losing my soul
I'm losing myself
I'm losing control
Looking back, as my life unfolds
I'm losing it all, I'm losing it all
6. What is Real?
You've got to be out of your... mind
What is it that you believe
Is it just what you can see
What is it that you perceive
To be your reality
What is real, What is real
What is real, What is real
What is real, What is real
What is real, What is real
I am just a figment
But to you I am real
Where do you keep your God
Are you sure? Are you sure?
What is real, What is real
What is real, What is real
What is real, What is real
What is real, What is real
7. Letter of Regret
Every time, I look in your eyes, I see a glimpse of pain
I never wanted, you to feel my pain, so I let you go
You never wanted, me to tell, the things of my past
And so I left it, all inside, my letter of regret
Every time, I hear your voice, I hear an ounce of pain
I never wanted, to cause you more pain, so I let you go
You woke, to my screams, nightmares of my past
Alone in the dark, I am writing, letters of regret
Here I am, once again, deep inside your mind... today
Every time I, touched your flesh, I felt your choking fear
I never wanted, to scare you that way, so I let you go
You never saw, what I felt inside, the monster within
Stalking and, preying, lied to keep it inside
Here I am, once again, deep inside your mind today
Surrounded by white, sterile and bright
Sedated, deflated, restraints are pulled tight
They call me crazy, oh could they be right
I'm sated, breath bated, I'm losing my mind
I am what I fear, (inside) echoed
And your stare is seared, (forever) echoed
I wont forget your look, (within) echoed
Your released I took your (pain) echoed...
8. Nothing Remains
9. End of the Line
I am thinking, I am sinking
I am gone, I am lost
I was here today, but
Now I've gone away, I
Can't go home, can't go home
I, see them, falling,
Falling, before my eyes
The grains, that are, all of my life
Oh, they're slipping, slipping away
The sands, the sands, harsh sands of time
Forever shifting, drifting away
Devastation, through my hands
The sand, is raining, draining away
This is, the end of, the end of my time
This is, the end of, the end of the line
Why, must I, go on with this life
Why, can't I, just lay down and die
My heart, pumps sorrow, through my veins
Of my, old self, nothing remains
My life, it seems, is so meaningless
I, miss your, loving caress
I feel, so empty, deep inside
Can't, release, the things I hide
This is, the end of, the end of my time
This is, the end of, the end of the line
This is, the end of, the end of my time
This is, the end of, the end of the line
I've reached, the end of, the end of my time
I've reached, the end of, the end of my life
Thinking, Sinking
Gone, Lost
Here today, but
Gone away, I
Can't... go home
10. Beyond the Wake
Searching for answers to questions unasked
Oceans of light but shadows are cast
The candle flame lies unflinching then dies
I see much better without its light
The coldness of tide Frozen eyes wide
Searching for light in the darkest of night
Now I know now I understand
Never know 'til you find the truth you demand
Absence of reason to laugh or to cry
Web of confusion to live or to die
Questions flow right up to the line
But the answers all lie beyond the wake
Listen up now I've gotta secret for you
Wishes almost never come true
Whispers on the wind are a deaf man screaming
Screaming in hope of hearing himself
Hearing himself crying out
To no avail he'll scream and shout
The questions flow, make no mistake
But the answers all lie beyond the wake
Each wave is changing with a story to tell me
I never heard them but now I'm listening
Searching for answers to questions unasked
Oceans of light but shadows are cast
The candle flame lies unflinching then dies
I see you much better without its harsh light
When all seemed lost and I sought the truth
I was flooded with visions of you
The coldness of tide Frozen eyes wide
Searching for light in the darkest of night
Now I know now I understand
Never know 'til you find the truth you demand
Listen up now I've gotta secret for you
Wishes almost never come true
Whispers on the wind are a deaf man screaming
Screaming in hope of hearing himself
Hearing himself crying out
To no avail he'll scream and shout
The questions flow make no mistake
But the answers all lie beyond the wake
Now that I'm blind, I can ask why
Who am I, Why am I
Just like a dream I see your face
The answer was found beyond the wake
11. Out of Control
I hate the fact that I live by
Everybody else's time
I hate calendars and schedules
And all the things that run my life
I need a new insanity
To keep me sane and feeling free
Too much structure to your life
Will drive you right out of your mind
Gotta get out of control
I don't need no drugs or drink
Just a little entropy
I'll be feelin' fine with me
Can't believe the things I've seen
But I don't need no therapy
I'll just sit and whine for free
I wish that things would change for me
Right or wrong, It's bound to be
And I will always get my way
I wish my wishes every day
But they have all just passed me by
Oh whatelse can I say
Gotta get up, gotta get out
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control-x4
I don't look for sympathy
I'm too damn filled with apathy
Don't try to tell me what I need
I'll tell you now that I am freed
My bonds are loose I'm free to fly
I like the feeling of being alive
I cast my self into the wind
I'll fight to let it never end
Gotta get up, gotta get out
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control
Gotta get up, gotta get out of control
