A potent mix of wonder,
ignorance and fear
A place to hide under
A secret place to keep
Self serving answers
Paper thin belief
Come bury your soul with me
I know i'd like a conscious life
I don't know how to get there
I don't know how to get there
So keep me right, we're wasting time
I don't know how to get there
I don't know how...
(Awaken! Stand up and fight for all you've yet to know
Coma Boy)
A bloated rich endeavour
or necessary care?
Something I should bury
or something I should share?
Listen for doubtful ramblings
and you'll find me there.
Come bury your soul with me
I know i'd like a conscious life
I don't know how to get there
I don't know how to get there
So keep me right, we're wasting time
I don't know how to get there
I don't know how...
(Awaken! Stand up and fight for all you've yet to know
Coma Boy
It's not something to love or hate but don't you dare go throw it away
May you be all you can be
Coma Boy)

Barriers
04:56
|
|||
I thought the fight was over, all battles won
I thought you'd lit your blindfolds and watched them burn
I thought that I could show you all that i'd found
But these barriers dictate all sight and all sound
I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn't be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bittersweet song
So let me tell the truth and let me come alive
Let me build bridges into your life
I'm sick of being born again and again
and I don't need conditions to let you in
Have you noticed how we talk and how we play our games?
A leather bound appeal to change our ways
All I wanted was to show you all that I'd found
No answers, no exits, no prophecy bound
I found love in the loneliest places
Places I shouldn't be found
I found love in the home of a sinner
Wrapped in some bittersweet song
So let me tell the truth and let me come alive
Let me build bridges into your life
I'm sick of being born again and again
and I don't need conditions to let you in
I never meant to hurt you or drive you away
but the barriers we've built, looks like they're here to stay

Exits
04:16
|
|||
It's not my choice to be here
In this bitter little room
I've never found an exit
and I doubt i'll find one soon
I cursed you all for leaving
But I pushed you all away
Oh how long will this last, will I stay?
Won't you help me to find,
A way out?
Some exits?
A lifeline?
But will I only come out
into a bigger room?
We've all got exits
that we keep on running to
So grab yourself a bottle
It's yours as much as mine
We'll toast the air, the sky and anything
that we can't find
Won't you help me to find,
A way out?
Some exits?
A lifeline?
With no way out
and no way in
I might not be needing this oxygen

A Life Worth Living
05:59
|
|||
Oh sweet emptiness
Fill my cup
Watch it overflow
Let it flood my soul
This silence that I know so well,
my only friend, my bitterest opponent,
the loneliest isle
But I came here so
I could let you go
I could cut you out
So I can live
A life worth living
(This can be found in all, now, a mortal cage)

Finding A Light
03:46
|
|||
Maybe it's strange
I've barely made a sound for twenty four hours
What's to say?
When all that's inside is poison to everyone
But I know
One day, I'll find a new light
and I'll take this sickness and bury it down
'cause every moment, every second should be precious, understand,
that I don't know how to live
at all
Maybe i'll change
Start a sick cult on mysterious islands
Or run away
and tell the whole world there's anger in all of us
But I know
One day, I'll find a new light
and I'll take this sickness and bury it down
'cause every moment, every second should be precious, understand,
that I don't know how to live
without you

Living Backwards
06:55
|
|||
I'm dead in the water
A silhouette turning over
I'll wait for you here
And I keep forgetting
where i'm meant to be
All so far, yet all so near
So tell me, just what are these gifts that you bring?
This life is amazing but the colours keep changing
I'm sure we shouldn't be wasting away
My rotting history
Will find it's place
So don't go
I'm so cold
I'll not be afraid
It's taken this long
To come back again
And yes, I might suffer the fate of another
of shit and of bones
and well, all things considered
I walked with my hands held out
I walked with my hands held out
To you and all that's good
I'm sure we shouldn't be wasting away
Living backwards
I'm living backwards
(Change!)

Trenches
04:08
|
|||
Well, we've been building our trenches
and waiting alone
For some hint or suggestion
of better things to come
So listen, listen please
I won't wait anymore
Let me run through the water
Let me drink in the sea
Let me run through the water
Just to pick me up again
Taking hold of our senses
We can always be
anything that you wanted
You know that I love you
but I can't let go
You know that I love you
but I can't let go
May you always be
Loved
If I don't make it out
Remember the love we had
I'm always yours

Nightmares
04:05
|
|||
Nightmares en route to Dallas
Born out of one last habit
One born of lust and fire
Unconscious dark desire
One riddled with guilt again
To shame a family name
My head is caving in
And now
Only love can save me now
Only love can save me now
This rotting mouth and faded memory
This self inflicted awful injury
Leads to to a vengeful heart
Which tears won't break apart
My head is caving in
My head is caving in
My head is caving in at last
And now
Only love can save me now
Only love can save me now

The Running Man
03:31
|
|||
I lost my way in 87
And turned my heart and thoughts to heaven
oh foolish boy
what could you know aged eleven?
I thought I was open
But I was closed
I thought I had answers to show the world
And I thought that the good light
would guide me home
For thirteen years
I hid away
And waited out
The final days
But now there's time
To live my life
As it decays
As it decays
I thought I was open
But I was closed
I thought I had answers to show the world
I thought that the good light
would guide me home
But no

You're Always Welcome
05:09
|
|||
The lights that comes in and out of my life
I'll write, I'll re-record these times
The grill and the metal, the ex's disease
Some passing of family, frustration released
You have a home here
You have a place to hide
You're always welcome
and you're more than I can save
The night you showed me I could see
I praised the Lord for drunken honesty
A master of patience to put up with me
Some surrogate brother I wanted to be
You have a home here
You have a place to hide
You're always welcome
This I know
You're more than I can show
May your days be golden
Let all light surround you
