Run 4:33 (Ed Roland) 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 Have I got a long way to run Yeah, I run Is there a cure among us From this processed sanity I weaken with each voice that sings In this world of purchase I’m going to buy back memories To awake some old qualities Have I got a long way to run Yeah, I run From the album Dosage.

Precious Declaration 3:41 (Ed Roland) Hitched a ride to the peaceful side of town Then proceeded where thieves were no longer found Can’t crash now I’ve been waiting for this Won’t crash now I found some encouragement Precious declaration reads Yours is yours and mine you leave alone now Precious declaration says I believe all hope is dead no longer New meanings to the words I feed upon Wake within my veins elements of freedom Can’t break now I’ve been living for this Won’t break now I’m cleansed with hopefulness Precious declaration says Yours is yours and mine you leave alone now Precious declaration says I believe all hope is dead no longer Once I jumped thru hoops of fire High and far as you required I was blind but now I see Salvation has discovered me From the album Disciplined Breakdown. Why Pt. 2 3:37 (Ed Roland) In the air I’m tasting your perfection Forgive me dear for my misdirection As I crawl beneath this torture you adore I fall face to face with my scars you’ve ignored So tell me why it don’t feel the same Tell me why I’ve got to feel this way Yeah you leave, you’re gone And I’m left here with the blame So tell me why it don’t feel the same All my props I swear they were in order Even with the warnings of your thunder Now I pause to let my silence scream tonight Awhile you roam like a serpent satellite From the album Blender. The World I Know 5:15 (Ed Roland) Has our conscience shown? Has the sweet breeze blown? Has all the kindness gone? Hope still lingers on I drink of newfound pity Sitting alone in New York City And I don’t know why Are we listening To hymns of offering? Have we eyes to see That love is gathering? All the words that I’ve been reading Have now started the act of bleeding Into one So I walk up on high And I step to the edge To see my world below And I laugh at myself As the tears roll down ‘Cause it’s the world I know It’s the world I know From the album Collective Soul. Next Homecoming 3:11 (Ed Roland) I leave the cage wide open I give no words of caution dear So when you’re done revolving I only ask your presence here So in the morning when I slow And the sun soon explodes I need the world to be controlled And in the evening when I leave I need a reason to believe In the next homecoming I cleared the road wide open So put your hand on the wheel and steer Don’t drain this conversation To only fill it back with tears 7even Year Itch album exclusive. Listen 4:12 (Ed Roland) Hey you’re now thirsty Walking in the desert all alone Hey you’re now searching Lost in isolation from your soul The bullets you bite From the pain you request You’re finding harder to digest And the answers you seek Are the ones you destroy Your anger’s well deployed Hey why can’t you listen Hey why can’t you hear Hey why can’t you listen As love screams everywhere Hey you now hunger Feeding your mind with selfishness Hey you now wander Aimlessly around your consciousness Your prophecies fail And your thoughts become weak Silence creates necessity You’re clothing yourself In the shields of despair Your courage now impaired You crucify all honesty No signs you see do you believe And all your words just twist and turn Reviving just to crash and burn You’re fighting till the bitter end If only your heart could open up And listen From the album Disciplined Breakdown. December (Ed Roland) Why drink the water from my hand? Contagious as you think I am Just tilt my sun towards your domain Your cup runneth over again Don’t scream about Don’t think aloud Turn your head now baby Just spit me out Don’t worry about Don’t speak of doubt Turn your head now baby Just spit me out Why follow me to higher ground? Lost as you swear I am Don’t throw away your basic needs, Ambiance and vanity December promise you gave unto me December whispers of treachery December clouds are now covering me December songs no longer I sing From the album Collective Soul. Forgiveness 5:00 (Ed Roland) In my silence I would love to forget But restitution hasn’t come quite yet And with one accord I keep moving forth I stretch my heart to heal some more It used to be all I’d want to learn Was wisdom trust and truth But now all I really want to learn Is forgiveness for you As my seasons change I’ve now grown to know When one’s heart creates, one’s soul doesn’t owe So I wash away stains of yesterday Then tempt my heart with love’s display From the album Disciplined Breakdown. |
