Альбом Set Your Goals

It's a revelation, a moment of clarity,
and I am trapped inside this moment deadlines are left to die
And I guess I am truly free.
My brain was spent I worried as I fell in knee deep
where consequences and circumstances suffocated and I could barely breathe.
And by all means, this rain should be bringing me down.
Seattle is keeping me in tune with just right now
and a song that tends to be so oddly timed.
The city is cold and miserable but I am not.
All we are is all we've started. All could be gone.

SO LET'S BEGIN!
I often wonder if I'll ever finish all I've started, and the answer I have found is NO.
No, I will never finish all that I have started because life is about doing, the process
And not the result. Life is about doing whether you want to or not.

MY LIFE!: A constant work in progress and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Take a look back. Is that what you wanted?
Chances are that it's not what was intended to be, because it's gonna be better than everything.
Everything, you will see, comes together in it's own ironic kind of way, so live in just today.
In my eyes I hold a vision in contradiction of what once existed.

Who are you to say what is real and what is fake and who here matters anyway?
It's nothing that I haven't heard
We're all sellouts in your eyes, that's no surprise
Well, we never tried to disguise everything we want to be

But honestly who cares what you have to say?

Why do you hate what you can't relate to?
Exploitation?
All these accusations hurt
It's not like you could lead us to our graves
If we share the same stage, why do you act this way? Everyday?

This is so loud, oh, so loud ringing in my head.
DOWN HERE IS OUR TIME

Two years ago an now we're here, did we mean to do so?
IT IS DO DIVINE

I told you so doesn't do it for me anymore.
OUR MUSIC WE WILL SHINE

If you feel it to then let it out now
BECAUSE DOWN HERE IS OUR TIME
It's a pirate's life for me!

mutiny!

this is a full blown assault. a cannon blast to mark your fall.

take back your discipline now. this is a genuine revolt.
superior, you are inferior. we've risen like we've never risen above before.
conformity has no authority. i can agree to compromise.
contemptible are your contracts. i will find the line and cross it every time.
contemptible are your labels.

this is a full blown assault.

take back your discipline now. this is a genuine revolt.
i am far from, so far from romanced.
there's too much business in this.
i'm going back to my garage. i have been completely disenchanted.
turn my amp up to eleven. six nickel wound strings have saved me again.
suits and ties are not to congregate in my sanctuary judged only by my hands.

down here is our time. it's innocent. it is so divine.
our music: rewrite not a single line.
down here is our time and we will shine.
our music: making wishes on your dime this time.

heroes have betrayed. we sing for better days.
don't sign our lives away to impure industries.

you're going under. we have come to take it over.
so sound the thunder. we have come to take it over now.

sign our band and we'll write you a chorus.
we will use your gimmicks if you think they will sell us
'cause we won't survive without your acceptance.

can we be friends?
can we be friends?
can
we
be
friends? mutiny!

in this vast network of sharks and minnows,
where the minnows outnumber the sharks a million to one,
why is it that we have yet to converge?
to take on the upperhand?
why have we been so scared?

well not today. not anymore. this is us growing up.
still young, but no longer impressionable.
we have come to pillage.
we have come to burn.
we have come to incite the riot.
we have come to take it over!

heroes have betrayed. we sing for better days.
don't sign our lives away to impure industries.

don't get me wrong.
i appreciate the appreciation but don't mistake my gratitude for half-heartedness
i'm not shouting these words out for nothing now.
i still feel like there's nobody listening in an empty room full of people.
i hope these walls have ears they'll be the only one i'll ever get to.
EVERYBODY.
they all love to listen to the pretty music
but nobody hears my therapy bled upon this paper.
it translates only to...when all this is done and recorded
please don't say it was wasted on you in vain.
i'd rather you just hit stop right now and walk away
you don't hear a single thing that i say.
what's the difference when you don't read there's a lesson to be learned.
PAY ATTENTION! no this song isn't about my ex girlfriend,
didn't i just say to pay attention?
EVERYBODY.
they all love to listen to the pretty music
but nobody hears my therapy bled upon this paper.
it translates only to a catchy tune to you but i'm glad you're enjoying yourselves.
you fake like you know it so well so tell me what this song is about.
maybe girls? maybe god? maybe how well all moved on and all sold out?
i just want you all to know just how very wrong everyone of you are.
the substance is there and it isn't hard to decode.
we never said we said it best our lyrics are undressed.
we never wrote them to impress anybody. the point is this.
we've got something to say and we'll go wherever to say it.
and that is so much more than any of you can say for yourselves.
we're calling you out to call you in. so here's a second chance.
we can take this line by line and we won't second guess.
to accept is to not except a hand from anyone.
so what are you going to do now?
you're searching. reaching out there's not enough to get you through.
no turning back you've got to take this, you must face this alone.

I value you more than you will ever know!

I know I'm not the only one
concerned about where this has gone.
The feelings that we both once shared,
they still exist, they went nowhere.

And you, you know it's true.
For you I am still here!
I'd hate to see it end this way.
It plagues my conscience every day.
And I want nothing more.
All I need lies in you!
Don't say this is the end.

I know I'm not the only one
who wishes we could get along.
Hanging out from 8 to 3,
and never wanting to fall asleep.

I just hope that you
will work with me
to make this right.
We can't just give up.
It's not fair.

This road, it's long.
If it will work with me.
Then I can say
I did not give up.
It's not fair.

You know it's true.
Don't pretend that you don't!
Tomorrow if we don't speak
A piece of my heart you will keep.
And we, we know it's true.
This is harder than I thought!
This can't be how this ends...

This can't be how this ends!
You have me waiting.
(I'm waiting.)
Waiting in suspense.
I just don't want it.
Tell me where you stand.
Quit walking on that fence.

Are you ready now?
(So are you ready?)
We're taking this to slow.
Soon we'll have nothing left to show.

My time is running on
and it isn't slowing down.
Never on my side.
You hate when I'm around.

Show me, show me what you said
is what, what you truly meant.
Don't say that i have to
lose another friend.

This very moment,
nothing else this important!
This very moment,
nothing else is this important!
Show me what you said
is truly what you meant...

Twelve hour drives are nothing when I'm with all of you
Then it's a road that calls my name
So come on, come on, punch it, I can't wait much longer
Living in this moment I know, distanced friends will be closer tomorrow
And when the lights go down, I swear I'll look for your eyes
You're singing every word you know we're here because of you!

So come on, come on, punch it, can't wait much longer
Living in this moment I know distanced friends will be closer tomorrow
Just make use with what you're given
Give it up because I'll never listen
This is all, all that I've dreamt of reasons why I went to face the day
And now we go! GO!

And every night it makes me feel so alive
Can only grow up from here so keep me here another year
Cause this is all, all that I dreamt of reasons that I went to face the day
And I'll live to face the day!
We'll go through life because it never seemed
Your life is not what's right for me
We'll pace the roads, and we'll paint the skies
Our path is plagued with discontent good byes
We're striking the days so we can burn the nights
And I'll never look back on what I've left behind

this time, we've got a first class motive. we should start.
i wrote it long ago and never wrote it off. try and we might.
don't and...

let's take this outside so i can make another scene.
i'll burn it on you, burn every bit of energy.
dare to resist it. dare to be irresistible.
i'd like to keep you right here always and forever.
uncomplicated. we both know i can be unpredictable.
i'll keep this from ever getting old. erase vertigo. i'm not far from home.

i am gonna go for a run across countries i have begged to drive up.
if it wasn't obvious enough you are invited to come.

this time, we've got a first class motive. we should start.
i wrote it long ago and never wrote it off. try and we might.
don't and we will never know.

let's take this outside so i can make another scene.
i'll burn it on you, burn every bit of energy.
dare to resist it. dare to be irresistible.
i'd like to keep you right here always and forever.
if we can keep on the communication we'll determine our fate and our whole situation.
this song will end but it can start again, and so can we. erase vertigo.
don't be so careful.

i am gonna go for a run across countries i have begged to drive up.
if it wasn't obvious enough you are invited to come.

this time, we've got a first class motive. we should start.
i wrote it long ago and never wrote it off. try and we might.
don't and we will never know.

take a risk. come take it on me. believe i'm a sure thing.
all or nothing now and i would not trade you for anything.

just get me back to where i can watch you sleep,
where i can feel comfortable in my own skin.
heaven knows no one else can do that for me.

this time, we've got a first class motive. we should start.
i wrote it long ago and never wrote it off. try and we might.
don't and we will never know.

try and we might. don't forget december. it was only ashes anyway.
that night was me and the moon. don't and we will never know.

DON'T LET THIS WIN OVER YOU
This life will stress the best of you.
The rest of your has got to take control.
The only thing left to accept is to not except a hand from anyone.
So what are you going to do now?
DON'T LET THIS WIN OVER YOU
You're searching, reaching out.
Theres not enough to get you through.
DON'T LET THIS WIN OVER YOU
No turning back. You've got to take this
You must face this alone

A quick bullet: a tough one to dodge (no one ever does)
It cuts fast and deep (picks your bones clean)
And you just have to let it bleed
I know the pain, it's all to familiar
If I could sing words to help, you know I would
And it would end the pain
But you will have to let this make you stronger
Difficult to overcome

The name of a ghost still dancing on our tongues
So bittersweet (these memories)
I wish they could have taken me
Struggle through tough times
And destroy all your fears

Don't let this win over you

Soon you will end the pain
And you will say that it did make you stronger
This is how you overcome
(these voices fade away as the memory did)
And we've all heard it sung
And we don't know what we got till it's gone
And then we want it back so much
Nobody ever warned youâЂ¦

Breathe in, take in it deep
Cross your heart, it's yours for you to keep
Wishful: I guess I never was
And I will breathe in, take in it deep
Cross your heart, it's yours for you to keep
Wishful: I guess I never was

(And I will keep, pieces of you alive in me.)
I am looking up now, death can't change us

I am looking up now, death can't change us
I will, stand alone
I will, learn from this, I will
I will, mourn the loss and I will be stronger

With balled up fists, take steady aim
I'll make a go of this and wish for better things than what I've seen
I'll look forward, straight, and ahead easier said than done
I know, for this time, I'm gonna try

Turn around and close your eyes wasted days and smiles

Talk is cheap, and mine's the worst
I've realized my actions are worth so much more
than they were before
It's time for me to gather all my thoughts,
turn them all inside out and see what it's all about

Turn around, and close your eyes wasted days and smiles
I need to find what might be mine, just let me go this time.

Don't say, "I quit"

I'll be back
I need to find what might be mine, just let me go this time

Your face never looked so sad
no need to worry, cause I'll be back
I'm just tired of the same routine
I need to find what it is waiting out there for me
