Reaching for You 04:07
lyrics
buy track
Let's begin take a look tell me what you see You'll find a way to bring it down to mediocrity No sensation no relation just filtration Your soul beckons for the key I'm reaching for you Reveal a side that you never knew I'm reaching for you Won’t you let it slide So you can show a side That you never knew Once again take a look tell me what you see You’re still a slave to the rules of rationality You suppress you regress I suggest Realize what you mean to me I'm reaching for you Reveal a side that you never knew I'm reaching for you Won’t you let it slide So you can show a side That you never knew

I Can Never Win 04:15

Excuse me can I forget this complication Cause I'm so done with the trials and tribulations Over me, over you, what you said to who and what your wearin' Who are you comparin' to me oh please tell me what you see Cause I'm so anxious to see you flee from the scene of the crime and the truth you think you know Tired of been beat down, tired of being used Tired of bein' run down on top of me you cruise I can never win Tired of bein' beat down, tired of havin' to choose Between my soul and a flashy pair of shoes I can never win No thanks bud I think I'm a little wiser Concerning the way to the cries outta her You know you hate that it's you Whose got the short end of the stick And when your drawin' up conclusions of the world In your head, be sure to keep your brain well fed Cause there's no way you'll make it in the world today Alone, alone Tired of been beat down, tired of being used Tired of bein' run down on top of me you cruise I can never win Tired of being beat down, tired of being used Tired of having to walk around with a lit fuse I can never win Hey you, I think its time to tell you I'm through And when it comes down time to gettin' your grade And your sure you got everything all made Up in your mind, got a job well paid But just know that I'm not comin' to your aide When your up with your rent and your money is spent And you don't have a cent to give or repent For things that you've done or the friend you left Behind, Behind Tired of beat down, tired of being used Tired of being someone I can never choose I can never win Tired of the in crowd, tired of being sly Tired of walkin' around with a conscience you deny You can never win

Insomnia 03:00
lyrics
buy track
Here I am, alone again Caged in my room with my thoughts to mend My mind cannot wander through a kaleidoscope of dreams My equilibrium is failing now that it seems I have lost my way to Utopia And tonight I will suffer Insomnia Take a breath get back the taste An inner voice convinces me that’s not the case My conscience shines down on me like the bright street light outside Salvation has escaped me for I have no guide And I have lost my way to Utopia And tonight I will suffer Insomnia The sad thing is this happens to you all the time Always confusing what you can touch, see, smell and hear from the realities and actualities that are sublime I guess you'll never wake from this, but maybe you were never awake at all How could you tell if its only what you saw Insomnia Insomnia Insomnia

Your Story 03:05
lyrics
buy track
Caught sight of an open book Pages turning gently in the wind Like many beginnings, it had begun with an end And with each passing line It drew me in, it drew me in Wondering where I'd been It drew me in, it drew me in The story drew me in In the character's passion I could see the truth within the tale Void of confusion, with intentions thinly veiled And with each passing line It drew me in, it drew me in Wondering where I'd been It drew me in, it drew me in The story drew me in And with each passing line I could only empathize And began to realize You drew me in, you drew me in Wondering where I'd been You drew me in, you drew me in Your story drew me in Wondering is there more to be written

Dreadnought 05:22
lyrics
buy track
The fleet has set course under an ocher sky The lights of Egypt left behind Adventure's anchored in our hearts and minds Which hostile shores will not deny For fear is something we know For fear is something we cannot show Packs of wolves lurk beneath the waves As tempests rage across the bow Nocturnal calm guides us in celestial gaze The way our father's taught how For fear is something we know For fear is something we cannot show As dawn burns off a morning mist A sight fit for Kipling's pen Silhouettes of iron bar the horizon Their guns seek to spell our end For fear is something we know For fear is something we cannot show
