9. Come together
1. Blind
A man for hire that will retire on what we make
The masses chose him,
no one knows him was this a big mistake
Their mouths are moving,
but I can't hear them speak
Images of perfection,
a liar, a cheat, a thief
You fill my mouth with shit,
then ask what's on my mind
I'm sick and tired of it,
the blind leading the blind
Two faces lead the blind,
Two faces lead the blind
Pull the strings and hear the masses roar
Different faces to look at same controls as before
Take a look, so where's the hook?
You just took the bait
He has the power for the final hour,
without a big debate
You fill my mouth with shit,
then ask what's on my mind
I'm sick and tired of it,
the blind leading the blind
Two faces lead the blind,
Two faces lead the blind
I've no connection or common ground with them
Try and trick me into believing,
they're just ordinary men
One finger on the button,
a smile toward the crowd
You've got the freedom to think it,
just don't speak out loud
You fill my mouth with shit,
then ask what's on my mind
I'm sick and tired of it,
the blind leading the blind
Two faces lead the blind,
Two faces lead the blind
2. Stuck
I lived a day,
looking up to where I'm now
Seems so strange,
having made it through somehow
Been so close. I saw the future in my eyes
I can't bring myself to throw it all away
Am I spending time, wasting my life
No reason or rhyme, why can't I decide
I'm stuck in this rut
I'm stuck in this rut
One step closer,
yet farther than I've ever been
Far from nothing and I wonder if we'll ever win
Another day older, thought I'd be wiser now
It's hard to tell just how far we'll go
and what fate allows
Am I spending time, wasting my life
No reason or rhyme, why can't I decide
I'm stuck in this rut
I'm stuck in this rut
Now or never,
do we pay to live our dreams
In our minds,
it's never really what it seems
Odds are against it,
what can we do to prove them wrong
Keep trying to make it,
never though it would take this long
Am I spending time, wasting my life
No reason of rhyme, why can't I decide
I'm stuck in this rut
I'm stuck in this rut
3. No return
Out there! He said they're here for me
Got everything that I'll ever need
Hear the screams that's for me
Nothing left for me to see
When I was young I dreamt the dream
One day I might hear the screams
See my face up on the screen
Could that be me? Oh,
Now I don't know which way to go
The path is traced inside my soul
A road with no obstacles leads me to nowhere
Worked long and hard just for the chance
To be a star and catch a glance
Is this dream that used to see
Am I deceived, do I believe anymore?
Never thought that this could be
Never dreamed it would happen to me
Do you know who? Or what it is you seek?
Can you feel the heat down your back
Pushed to the point of no return?
With no direction I was lost
Uncharted waters I had to cross
Gave it all and for what I ask
Was it the vision within my grasp?
Now I don't know which way to go
The path is traced inside my soul
A road with no obstacles leads me to nowhere
Can you feel the heat down your back
Pushed to the point of no return?
Can't hear my thoughts anymore
I'm at the point of no return
Will I find my way back from the point?
Never thought that this could be
Never dreamed it would happen to me
Do you know who? Or what is it you seek?
Can you feel the heat down your back
Pushed to the point of no return?
Can't hear my thoughts anymore
I'm at the point of no return
Will I find my way back from the point?
Can't find my way, won't find my way
There is no way, no return?
4. Know
I remember that look in your eyes
When the time came for me to go
Through all the years I've tried
Never thought that it would unfold
And through our lives we've spent the time
Chasing dreams could we be so bold
Still I'm searching for the words
To be said to you, But I don't know
Never thought that I would make it
Didn't think that I would mistake it
Here we go around and around and around
Time after time I felt I created
From the soul I would portray it
Feeling is there but I don't know if it's on
But you would be the last to know
But you would be the last to know
Trying to find these feelings deep inside of me
Confusing times they tend to blind me
Can't see it all before my eyes
Fools have said why do you keep on trying?
But you are here and I'll keep on flying
We'll never stop because the music is in our soul
But you would be the last to know
But you would be the last to know
I never thought it would happen
But you were the last to know
(Guitar Solo)
It is said that they'll criticize me
Cut me down or even redefine me.
It's just the way the story goes
I recall you standing there beside me
Don't think I'm crazy but I really might be
Couldn't make it this far without you around
But you would be the last to know
But you would be the last to know
5. Change
As I woke from a dream
Seem my feet couldn't touch the ground
And combined my fear with anger
I tried to scream but heard no sound
I couldn't run away afraid to stay
What's just beyond the door
Decide reality from fantasy
Not knowing what's in store
Nothing remains, never the same
All things must change
Change day by day nothing remains
All things must change
Now I've found some answers
But to which questions they belong
And who am I to know the differences?
Between choosing the right from wrong
And so my life today may seem the way
I really wish it to be
As I turn away it seems today,
May not be what it seems
I couldn't run away afraid to stay
What's just beyond the door
Decide reality from fantasy
Not knowing what's in store
Nothing remains, never the same
All things must change
Change day by day nothing remains
All things must change
The only constant in time is change
(SOLO)
Couldn't run away. What's just beyond the door?
Nothing remains, never the same
All things must change
Change day by day nothing remains
All things must change
6. Quiet sky
There are no words to describe
What's been seen in my eyes
To realize what's been passing us by
Day to day pressing through our lives
To see the visions in my mind
You must stand
Under a quiet sky. Under a quiet sky.
And so we journey on through time
Rely on memories in my mind
To see all the seasons change
Years gone by never be the same
To see the visions in my mind
You must stand
Under a quiet sky. Under a quiet sky.
(Solo)
Words of wisdom
The past is a mirror of today
Grab hold of this moment in time
Cause this life could simply pass us by
To see the visions in my mind
To see the visions in my mind
You must stand
Under a quiet sky. Under a quiet sky.
Words can't describe
These feelings I have inside.
7. Bent
Fill my mind with your beliefs
Take my time while you preach
Can't you see you've stepped across that line
Trapped inside your point of view
Spilling thoughts of what we do
The future holds the key to what we'll find
Take away from what we've done
In your mind we've never won
So move aside and let us through your line
Can't you see you've stepped across that line
Never knowing what you'll end in time
I am frustrated my patience has been spent,
Just get bent
Taste in my mouth these feelings I resent,
Just get bent
I see you now but where have you been?
Not there at all and you call yourself a friend
Through hard times you move aside
Glory comes you stand too high
Just in time to jump on for the ride.
Through thick and thin we made it through
Can't you see you've stepped across that line
Never knowing what you'll end in time
I am frustrated my patience has been spent,
Just get bent
Taste in my mouth these feelings I resent,
Just get bent
(Solo)
Funny how it used to be
But you are you and I am me
Can't you see the light we've got it on
Until the day we meet again
Best of luck to you my friend?
I hope you saw the bridge
cause now it's gone
Can't you see you've stepped across that line
Never knowing what you'll end in time
I am frustrated my patience has been spent,
Just get bent
Taste in my mouth these feelings I resent,
Just get bent
We're frustrated, patience has been spent,
Just get bent
8. Fear
Step into your thoughts
Journey through your mind
The pictures getting clearer
As darkness fades to blind
Illusions you've created
Sends a tremble through your soul
What's real seems forgotten
As fantasy takes it's toll
Is there light in the darkness
Or will it ever shine
Courage lies ahead of you
But you can cross that line
In a state of fear
Reality is left behind
Fright has taken over
And left you what to find
We have nothing to fear.
We have nothing to fear
But fear you see
We have nothing to fear.
We have nothing to fear
But fear you see
Lost in this maze
Afraid of what's ahead
The path leads you to nowhere
Forgotten what's been said
Illusions you've created
Sends a tremble through your soul
What's real seems forgotten
As fantasy takes it's toll
We have nothing to fear.
We have nothing to fear
But fear you see
We have nothing to fear.
We have nothing to fear
But fear you see
You try and find an answer
Deep inside you pray
Left alone in darkness
Until another day
Illusions you've created
Sends a tremble through your soul
What's real seems forgotten
As fantasy takes it's toll
We have nothing to fear.
We have nothing to fear
But fear you see
We have nothing to fear.
We have nothing to fear
But fear you see
9. Come together
