Flight Response -
Out of the blue / bonifide / Response of the brain / Intense adrenaline flow / flow / out of control / sudden jolt / freezing in fear / trauma road / road / Traveling real / pain is my pill / Ride it out if you can / can / dilation of eyes / panic surprise / I've lost my pill now I'm numb / numb / down on my knees wanting to die / mistaken beliefs of real life / LIFE / prepare for the flight / reward your misguide / get off your knees time to hide
When everything in your life is good Then it got bad / would you hate me So what am I supposed to do about it I'm running insane
Colorful shapes / a vivid mistake / I've lost intake / Give my sore heart a new soul / soul / Nerves play my role / I'm not whole / give me the soul / Now I'll run / run / running insane / follow the pain / Mistaken beliefs OF real life / life Prepare for the flight / reward your misguide / Get off your knees time to fly
I won't be safe again

The Real-
Nothing is real/ but it's real if you want it to be/ (Ideas in my mind none self subsisting)/ Look forward to life all of your life,/ Just your life not a dream/ ("Hello" I've been waiting to meet you)/
So turn around you will still feel/ that the real is DEEP inside/ I have opened all me doors/ so there's nothing to hide/ I said it./
Live in your hole/ Box your soul/ Without hope pride or faith/ (depend on full attempt of boundary)/ turn around before you fear/ what you've found/ (Turn around and face me now)/
You're faced down (So turn around)
--
Enemy -
Listen down you little man/ I'm not the one who's trying to change you/ And if you come to understand it will be okay/ You need to chnage it now/
I'm not the one who's trying to be your enemy/ There's something you need to CHANGE/
(repeat verse 1)
I went in killing the sun / I once won

Weapon and the Wound -
I won't break this/ It took so long to make this/ The life I lead is getting through to me/ I won't take this/ It took so long to get rid of this/ Anything is everything to me/
What a step in time
Running after you/ I don't know where you are/ And I can't seem to catch you/ I want you to know me/
The pain that greets me/ Is the STICK that beats me/ Solid dream/ Hope isn't what it seems/ Words I can't miss is the song that sings you/ Missing friend tomorrow is the End/
What a step in time
find my place in life

Take Me Back Then -
Nothing's wrong/ I'm just wastin'/ All the time that I've tasted/ Take me back on a TIME trip/
Won't you take me back then/ Why don't you take me
Nothing's wrong/ I'm just wasted/ I'm the one who's tastin'/ All the time that I'm faced with/

Bring Yourself -
I can see your (sic?) everything/ Don't you know it's so hard to bring/ Bring yourself to me/ You know it's the world that you'd like/
I can see that the world you know/ IS the one that you like/ I can see that the world you know/ is the one left behind/
Ride that horse on in / We've been waiting for a long time / We've tried to pick you up / but you've just tried to bring us down / So why don't you just keep it between the fire and the place / What the hell / So why don't you just ride that horse on in / We've given you the strength to bring yourself / So why don't you stay a while / have some children / Raise a family is this what you want / Is this what you came for / We've given you the strength to bring yourself

I Think -
It feels so good outside/ I think I'll stay here/ And if you want to die/ I think I'll care/ Same kind of gateway/ Without time/ The rocks are tumbling/
I don't want to say/ It happened to me/ I am going away/ I think I'll care/
Blame me all you want/ There's NOTHING I will say/ I will only think/ I will only pray/ Tell me how it is/ Show me how it goes/ I know how you are/
I think I'll care

Phobics of Tragedy -
Nothing is Real when you're talkin'/ I don't believe what I'm watchin'/ Shelter me 'til it's over/ Of what you want to believe/ I'M afraid of what I see and/ What I see is everything/ Shelter me with my own hands/ And with my hands I will depend/
God I don't know what to say/ Everything is in my way/ Get up and deal with the pain/ Drowning your mind in the way/
Let me sleep/ I'll let you sleep/ Put on your mind frame/ Take off your mind/ Put on your heart/ I'm going down stream/
--
Not the Same (same ol' saying)

Provider -
Don't you know it is HARD to let go from the World where you've grown/ I don't want to be afraid/ I don't want to fear this/ I could see it your way/ Don't you know that I can find this/ I won't be afraid of you/ I can see my heart's together/ I want you to feed me too/
Don't you know/ It's hard to dig deep/ Can't you see it's hard to let go/ There you be/ I don't fear you/ Wipe your feet/ You've walked on my territory/
I don't want to see your face
--
Last One -
ALONE with pain/ I thought I'd made a friend/ Why do you leave now/ Is this what you've planned/ Wait your turn / it's a long time/ Before you'll breathe/ Stay underwater AND tell me are you free/
I cannot complain/ The pain will stay here for today / It seems to stay/ I cannot complain/ The pain will stay/
I want to be there for you/ You can't seem to take this ride/ I want to be there for you now/
You're not a sholder/ If I'm the one to lean/ I see your red side when you always bleed/ The world is a pea/ No it don't revolve around me/ If anything I revolve around the world (much bigger)/
