To a world where madness craves
Your windows opened wide
To a world where madness craves
And all your weight
Hold me up to all whom you've deceived
But, don't bring me down
Save me come tomorrow
Steady here I cast my lines
But, don't bring me down
I don't need nobody
Here I slumber to awaken my daze
I don't need nobody
In this time of substitute
I'm not weakened by the fears
Clothed in new costumes
I passed the darkened vaults of
Hangin' on every word
I can say I spent the night
Have I got a long way to run
Is there a cure among us
Have I got a long way to run
Hey I'm flirting inside
I can't convey
Hey I swallowed your pride
And there it goes my innocence
Hesitation compounds
And there it goes my innocence
Clouds of thought you
Who's gonna wear my crown
Who's gonna be my partner
Life's river shall rise
She said she's still searching
Forgive me
Hints, Allegations, and Things Left Unsaid Lyrics
TREMBLE FOR MY BELOVED
The hour has begun
Your eyes have now opened
To a world where hope's enslaved
Oh I'll tremble for my love always
Your innocence takes flight
To a world where hope's enslaved
Oh I'll tremble for my love always
HEAVY
Complicate this world you wrapped for me
I'm acquainted with your suffering
It falls on me
It brings me down
And all your weight
It falls on me
It falls on me
Promises you break you still believe
NO MORE NO LESS
Here I lie motionless
Catch me if you can
My properties of no defense
So, strike at your command
All right
Don't bring me down
'Cause there's purpose
For this night
Lead me to my urgency
See I'm no more no less
Of an angel
Than you'd have me be
So let's shake it like this
Only to expose
A weaker sense and
No constraint
Now my true self shows
All right
Don't bring me down
'Cause there's promise
In the night
NEEDS
All around me I see what weakness has made
Too much tomorrow I think I'll take all today
Am I a poison, Am I a thorn in the side
Am I picture perfect subject tonight
I don't need the weight of words
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth
Or doubt of faith to fall into
I find convenience in this savior I save
Am I a prison, Am I a source of dire news
Am I a picture perfect reason for you
I don't need the weight of words
To crash on through
I don't need nobody
I just need to learn the depth or doubt
Of faith to fall into
It's my needs I've answered to (All the while)
And the hope that I invest
Still turns to signals of distress (All the while)
SLOW
Morning like this
Make me feel like I could never float
Glimpses of peace
Portray all that you never could show
That you have applied
See I'm now learning in these walls
That you have supplied
Slow
Slow down boy
Slow down to control
Slow, slow
That weather your newfound storms
Staring through reason
Content with your newfound decor
Late doorways as if I were a king
Like this I chain a whisper to my faults
DANDY LIFE
Took a walk to a caution scene
Guess I crossed the line somehow
And if I lost some of your hope
I'm sorry for the folly was all mine
And I don't ever really understand
All the things we say
But I try to anyway anyhow
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, everything, everything
My social butterfly
Everyone wants to be loved
Loved in their own way
On the telephone inside
When you said that every single
One of us can find a happy face
So why don't you go try
Try anyway
And I suppose I was born yesterday
'Cause I never thought of things
Quite in that way at all and in that way
For what's in a day of a dandy life
For what's in a day of this dandy life
Everything, everything, everything
RUN
Are these times contagious
I've never been this bored before
Is this the prize I've waited for
Now as the hours passing
There's nothing left here to insure
I long to find a messenger
Yeah, I run
From this processed sanity
I weaken with each voice that sings
In this world of purchase
I'm going to buy back memories
To awaken some old qualities
Yeah, I run
GENERATE
Hey you give me no choice
I entertain by the silence
That you created by noise
I need the floor opened up
For the scream I'd now love to shout
I can't relate to the thoughts you now
Generate
I can't contain
I can't explain all the words you now
Generate
To gather up confrontation
That you have so long denied
COMPLIMENT
Now I've taken the side
Of a beautiful calm
Can you see this disguise
Fading to a resolve
While gathering up a compliment
And here I lie with words to swear
There's something more than
The world out there
I've nothing left to sustain
My worries here have allowed
A momentary refrain
While gathering up a compliment
And here I lie with words to swear
There's something more
Than the world out there
NOT THE ONE
I waltzed around you
Seven times
Only to become
A melody you never sang
I'm not the one
Oh I'm not the one
Filter through
Never to reason
While patiently your world
Still bleeds
Who shall be the one?
Oh I'm not the one
CROWN
Who's gonna be my savior
now that I've learned to believe
Who's gonna be the answer
To all of my questioning
Well I hope I'm not lost
But I think that hope is now distracting
And the words that secure a thought
Are now faint whisperings
I don't know I just might alone
Who's gonna wear my crown
I don't know I've just got to go my way
Now that I stand here alone
Who's gonna be the shepherd
To lead this poor boy back home
Well I hope I'm not lost
But I think that hope is now distracting
And the words that secure a thought
Are now faint whisperings
SHE SAID
She said that time is unfair
To a woman her age
Now that wisdom has come
Everything else fades
She said she realizes
She's seen her better days
She said she can't look back
To her days of youth
What she thought were lies
She later found was truth
She said her daddy had dreams
But he drank them away
And her mother's to blame
For the way she is today
She said
And only the strong shall survive
She said
But I'm feeling quite weak
She said
Will you comfort and forgive me
She said
For salvation's light
She said she wishes all day
And she prays all night
She said she won't speak of love
Because love she's never known
She said it's moments like these
She hates to be alone
She said
Forgive me
She said
