It's gone from light to gray
But I'll move those clouds away
Letting the sun shine through
In this ode to you
Let the demons have their place
If so it's angels you'll create
And disguised within the dark
Light will wait
My heart I owe you my soul

Will you please accept
Please accept this offer (it's over)
This is all for you
Transcend

We flip towards the sun
Wheels skidding on the road
A flowing sea of red
The whole city groans
My heart I owe you my soul

Will you please accept
Please accept this offer (it's over)
This is all for you
Transcend
Will you please accept
Please accept this offer (it's over)
This is all for you
Transcend

Fiasco!

Rubberneck passing motorist
A mangled tuna-can car rests
Repair this tattered skin
Hold it in your hand
You've already glistened through the window
You've already set us all free...free...free

Please accept
Please accept this offer (it's over)
This is all for you
Transcend
Will you please accept
Please accept this offer (it's over)
This is all for you
Transcend

Fiasco!

Bring back those good old days
Nothing feels right
Nothing ever goes my way
I threw my future away
Now I'll walk alone out here in the cold
Wandering astray
Where's my future
Gonna need a home
You'd expect the same now wouldn't you
Wouldn't you

Your journey back to birth
Is haunting you
It's haunting you
Your departure from the Earth
Is haunting you
It's haunting you

Only those who accept
Will find that acceptance in return
We have been trimmed down like hedges
Told just to sit
And wilt and spit at each other from a distance
With constant resistance from you
Gonna need a home
You'd expect the same now wouldn't you
Wouldn't you

Your journey back to birth
Is haunting you
It's haunting you
Your departure from the Earth
Is haunting you
It's haunting you

It's been ten years strong
That's much too long
It's time to do something good for my health
Time to do something good myself
It's been ten years strong
That's much too long
It's time to do something good for my health
Time to do something good myself

I've wasted all of this time
I've wasted all of this time

Your journey back to birth
It's haunting you
It's haunting you
Your departure from the Earth
It's haunting you
It's haunting you
Your journey back to birth
It's haunting you
It's haunting you
Your departure from the Earth
It's haunting you
It's haunting you

I'm not your star
I'm not that beam of light
Here to save your life
To make your wallet fat
While mine's on a diet
It's not my greatest care
But simple needs are scarce
It's never-ending
It really seems unfair
But lately I don't care
I don't care about much
I've given up trying

So sing about love
Sing about lust
So they will care
It's the same difference
That's what happens when you play catch without arms
It's what sets, sets, sets us apart
That's what happens when you compromise your art
It's what sets, sets, sets us apart

We've got this far
I don't know if you care
But I think that you should swear
Or something of the sorts
Show me your trying

So sing about love
Sing about lust
So they will care
It's the same difference
That's what happens when you play catch without arms
It's what sets, sets, sets us apart
That's what happens when you compromise your art
It's what sets, sets, sets us apart

Set the bait so they will bite it
If there's a hook they can't deny it
Sing about love so they can feel it
Sing about love so they can sing it
Sing it

That's what happens when you play catch without arms
It's what sets, sets, sets us apart
That's what happens when you compromise your art
It's what sets, sets, sets us apart

I'm not your star
I'm not that beam of light
Here to save your life
Oh no
Not your star
Not that beam of light
Here to save your life
Oh no

Remove my hands and feet
Watch me crawl on my stubs
Throw me to the street
Watch me fall on down head first

It’s not that simple
I’ve needed this from the start
To guide my way
To be okay
It’s made life simple
I’ve needed this from the start to wake up

If all else fails
If all turns to dust
Set sail on a ship built from trust
If all else fails
And all starts to rust
Set sail on a ship built for us

Its time to retreat
I sawed it down to the bone
The canyons are too deep yeah
Decided to run like a child
Decided to run to rescue
Took too long to wake up

If all else fails
If all turns to dust
Set sail on a ship built from trust
If all else fails
And all starts to rust
Set sail on a ship built for us

It’s not that simple
I’ve needed this from the start
To guide my way
To be okay
It’s made life simple
I’ve needed this from the start to wake up

If all else fails
If all turns to dust
Set sail on a ship built from trust
If all else fails
And all starts to rust
Set sail on a ship built for us
For us for us

One Two Three Four

I wonder why I'm running around again
I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend
Yeah I wonder
Like sprinting on a frozen pond..I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend

A couple of drinks mid-day mid-day mid-day
Haven't felt this way this way since yesterday
A couple of drinks I sway I sway I sway
Haven't felt this way since yesterday

I wonder why I'm running around again
I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend
Yeah I wonder
Like sprinting on a frozen pond I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend

(a couple of drinks, a couple of drinks)
(a couple of drinks, a couple of drinks)

A couple of drinks mid-day mid-day mid-day
Haven't felt this way this way since yesterday
Beginning to sink and fade and fade and fade
There's nothing that I would trade to feel this way

I wonder why I'm running around again
I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend
Yeah I wonder
Like sprinting on a frozen pond I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend

(a couple of drinks, a couple of drinks)
(various vocal background noises)

I wonder why I'm running around again
I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend
Yeah I wonder
Like sprinting on a frozen pond I took my chances
I may have lost my best friend

I wonder...running around again
I wonder...may have lost my best friend
I wonder...running around again
I wonder...may have found my best friend

The old returns while the new can bore
Because you're the one who fell
Into your self-created Hell
We've worn it out

It took time to realize
It's a chore to recognize
What your world could take it's overgrown
Take it all away now
Real soon, you'll take this all the way down

The old returns while the new can bore
Because you're the one who fell
Into your self-created Hell
There is no way out
When you build a stubborn shell
That shields from any help
We've worn it out

You tried to maximize
But it came as no surprise
That you hurled a stake into your own dome
Take it all away now
Well soon, we'll take this all the way down

Please, Don't, Go, Stay

The old returns while the new can bore
Because you're the one who fell
Into your self-created Hell
There is no way out
When you build a stubborn shell
That shields from any help

(background screams)
(She was beautiful, bring her back)

The old returns while the new can bore
Because you're the one who fell
Into your self-created Hell

Take it all away now
There is no way out
There is no way out
When you build a stubborn shell
That shields from any help
We've worn it out
We've worn it out

I'm the addict on the corner
I'm the lawyer in the tower
I'm the body with the coroner
No, the leader with all the power
You're the pillow, the cool side
The sand during high tide
The cocktail, poolside
The water when clouds collide

From the inside out we were formed
From the inside out we will fall
Soon this all will come to an end

I'm a local but a foreigner
Still the addict yet I'm sober
Still the body with the coroner
Many friends yet still a loner
You're the pillow, the cool side
The sand during high tide
The cocktail, poolside
The water when clouds collide

From the inside out we were formed
From the inside out we will fall
Soon this all will come to an end
Soon this all will come to an end

From the inside out we were formed
From the inside out we will fall
Soon this all will come to an end
Soon this all will come to an end

She's to blame I'll erase routine,
With a spark to ignite the flame,
And in this struggle of guilt to tame,
It's freedom I'll obtain,
She tied me up,
Removed my crown,
Bittered all good taste,
Sorry for everything I've done,
I can't deny instinct

Look at what I have found
A seashell in a sea of shells
I'm good at planting my own seeds
To sprout endless hell
It's dark like Poe

Forgiveness came we embrace the key,
Found water to douse the flame,
We ended our difference of soul and brain,
Forever we are changed,
I've just set out on a brand new race,
Can we keep the pace,
I can't believe what we've become,
I'll leave without a trace.

Look at what I have found
A seashell in a sea of shells
I'm good at planting my own seeds
To sprout endless hell
It's dark like Poe

yeaah yeeeaaahhh
yeaah yeeeaaahhh...ohh ohh ohh

Look at what I have found
A seashell in a sea of shells
I'm good at planting my own seeds
To sprout endless hell
It's dark like Poe

Leave without a trace, I'll leave without a trace...

I harmonize with a million screaming laughs
That haunted those before us
Preaching symphonies while the chorus yelled: "Unity!"
It's based on facts, It's based on facts

You spit-shined my corroded halo
Then packaged it away
You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then left it to decay.

Will you watch your step
The boring story's left
You're feeling lost
"In here," she said
"Come in here"
The pain won't last

You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then packaged it away
You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then left it to decay.

Take this weight off my shoulders
And move it to my brain
Take this weight off my shoulders
And move it to my brain

You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then packaged it away
You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then left it to decay.
You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then packaged it away
You spit-shined my corroded halo,
Then left it to decay.

I looked to the sky
Saw my body die
Gotta reappear up there
It's where I want to be
In the universe city
I've found I've found my own college
I've found I've found a way to resolve this

I’m not inside you
You're all around me
Is this what you needed to hear to comfort you
I waited all this time above you

Is this what you wanted
Is this what you needed to hear
Take all that I've known
Is this what you wanted
Is this what you need me to fear
Take all that I've found...

I’m not inside you
You're all around me
Is this what you needed to hear to comfort you
I waited all this time above you

I looked to the ground
Was pleased with what I found
Gotta reappear up here
It's where I'll always be
In the universe city
I've bound I've bound all my problems
I'm gone I'm gone finally solved this

I’m not inside you
You're all around me
Is this what you needed to hear to comfort you
I waited all this time above you

So long to the hurt and stormy weather
It's time for a cleansing
Nice try, but you can't avoid this forever
You know it makes you feel good

Feeding on your soul
You'll search for a cure
You'll want to be sure
You don't lose control
You'll want to be sure
That this is really you

So long since I can't even remember
It's time for renewal
You know that you won't have fun after
You know it makes you feel good

Feeding on your soul
You'll search for a cure
You'll want to be sure
You don't lose control
You'll want to be sure
That this is really you

Fell towards the fire
Shielding myself from sin
Things are looking brighter
This is the way I want to live

So long to the hurt and stormy weather
It's time for a cleansing
Nice try, but you can't control me forever

Feeding on your soul
You'll search for a cure
You'll want to be sure
You don't lose control
I'll always be sure
You'll want to be sure
So long to the end
You'll always be there
But you are gone to me

I was looking down at you smiling up at me
For once I held you tight, but shadowed hands grabbed at me
You're head was in the clouds, now those clouds are in your head
That's when you needed me, so I listened to want you said

Look another year went by,
They keep passing by,
God damn I didn't even die,
To old and slow I've grown,
I fought time but lost

It was love like a callas you scarred enough to be
Tough and immune, your body adapts you see
To all above my head, and all below my feet
No that's one freedom you'll never take from me

Look another year went by,
They keep passing by,
God damn I didn't even die,
Too old and slow I've grown,
I fought time but lost

To criticize and judge, how did I end up here,
With these standards I'm supposed to love, make me disappear.

Hold tight, hold tight

To criticize and judge, how did I end up here,
With these standards I'm supposed to love, make me disappear.
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here,
With these standards I'm supposed to love make me disappear.

Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight
Look another year went by
Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight
