1. Shame
3:52 (Roland)

Here comes woman riding down the road

She's been crucified once or so I was told

Well alright should I really care?

Here comes pressure building inside

Release formation before your tears dry

Well alright should I really care?

I can't sing you lullabys

You see my worlds all crazy my worlds alright

And I can't hold every night

This world is too easy this world is too bright.

Banner held high morals are low

Take my hand and don't let go

Blinded by shame

No more talking and no more games

I've got the lights all flashing to cure all pain

Well alright should I really care?

No more pushing no more shove

And no more talking about that silliness love

Well alright should I really care?

I can't sing you lullabys

You see my worlds all crazy my worlds alright

And I can't hold every night

This world is too easy this world is too bright.
2. Over Tokyo
3:18 (Roland)

Got a photograph of a smile

Taken way back when we could smile

Now this plane will take me

Where I don't know maybe Tokyo.

Cause there's no movement

Over Tokyo

And there's no hurting

Over Tokyo

Got a photograph of some tears

Taken presently with more tears

Now I'll search for happiness

Where should I go, maybe Tokyo

Attention will this pain go away

Conditions just aren't the same.
3. Lost & Found
3:58 (Roland)

Waiting for the signs

To appear before my eyes

To let me know

You're coming gone

Singing hardcore blues

Painting scenes of lonely views

Where are you now?

Where are you now?

Cause every day I pray aloud

Hopeful as my heart cries out

For you were lost but could be found

So turn around as our love's lost and found

Bracing for the worst

Prayerful thoughts can't stop the hurt

So I'll keep on

Till I'm long gone

Sensing you'll come soon

When and where I wish I knew

Where are you now?

Where are you now?
4. Hymn No. 24
4:02 (Roland)

No more news now baby

Heaven's closed its door

No need to worry now baby

Love is as before

Patience I'll have to learn

Waiting for your return

Time to sleep now baby

A bed of clouds for you

We'll talk again now baby

We'll talk again real soon

No more sign's, no more thoughts for now

We're closer than we think any how

Waiting for my Lord to come on down
5. Shelter
4:03 (Roland)

I'm thinking thoughts of you

No reason why

Well I'm the foolish fool

The deep end I'll dive

So won't you take me down

Under your shelter

There you can watch over me

You better take me down

Under your shelter

And there you can purify me

I'll give you roses

And Jesus too

My heart is painted

With pictures of you

Well I don't need the rain

And I don't need the moon to curb all the pain

From you.
6. Don't Dull Pain
3:10 (Roland)

Long time years gone

Five fifths what's wrong

Worlds turn hearts ache

Whose thoughts at stake

Language such you'd think we'd stay in touch

Guess I pray too much

Sky above turns the color of

Lost but wanted love.

Don't dull pain

It would never be the same

Don't dull pain

Cause if you do you take the world away.

Can't fight win lose

Pardon loves views

Sing songs all's fine

Famous last line

Hard to say what news could break today

Changes come what may

Silent boom where no more flowers bloom

Just and empty room.
7. Window
3:28 (Roland)

I concede to hope than fear

By my window

And love lies everywhere

By my window

Yeah leave me alone

I'm happy here by my window

I'm feeling young and sometimes bold

By my window

There's no cause to upset my ways

By my window

Solid walls keep in what I pray

By my window

Do you like my domain

Common ground for all to reign

Or do you like my window closed

Where no thoughts come and no thoughts go?
8. Chris Can't Cry
4:27 (Roland)

Hurricanes come and gone

but the wind keeps ragging on

Fortified with the thought

I'm sheltered with time you brought

I've seen altered images flash inside

Visions obscured but I know you're safe tonight.

Chris can't cry

Chris just dances in my mind

Chris can't cry

Chris just left all tears behind

Following where you'd go

Mountains high or valley low

Blinded it's hard to see

Where now you'll be leading me

No cult can cure what blind men haven't seen

There's no doubt to what lonely really means

I hear no phantoms words

I see no phantoms eyes

I only feel my friend's laugh

As I'm the only one who cries.
9. Shut Up & Dance
4:30 (Roland)

I can't dwell on any question

My world's already shed a tear

There's no time left for hesitation

Here's a weapon I'd like to share.

Shut up and dance

Can't expect guns to surrender

Or violent words to make common sense

For those who say they're clean and so pure

Here's something I'd like to suggest
