Scattered throughout the world, these seeds of lost memories their faces tell stories, their faces tell stories of lives left untouched they promise me a world that I could have known, but mine is a place that only I can own Gaze through your window where you can not see, your pictures perpetually reminding me that mine is a choice that may never be an instant reward that you all may seek Withering away, I'm feeling low today, but soon I will bloom, but soon I will bloom It's difficult to say just where I will take me these distant faces they can never know those far out spaces I wish I could reside there with endless traces of happiness too good for me too good for me, too good for me, too good for me Gaze through your window where you can not see, your pictures perpetually reminding me that mine is a choice that may never be an instant reward that you all may seek Gaze through your window where you can not see, your pictures perpetually reminding me that mine is a choice that may never be an instant reward that you all may seek

Fantasy 04:30
(verse) It graces me, always in my dreams Such feelings I desire to be my own the visions of past lives surrounding me a perfect medley of all that I have known But it's hard to hear, when all I know is fear a melody that's calling me from beyond and it's tough to feel, when everything that's real shatters the illusions that I hold dear (chorus) In my Fantasy I can be free, safe form the world of sleep that wants to harm me You are the bringer of my demise see me for what I am through honest eyes (Verse 2) I long to loan my mind to someone else to share with them my reality imagination, a gift that must be felt a fragile figment impossible to see but it's clear to me, such gifts are not to be these thoughts are only to be mine to keep and it's bright as day, there can be only one way a chance that I could wake this sleeping world (chorus) In my Fantasy I can be free, safe form the world of sleep that wants to harm me You are the bringer of my demise see me for what I am through honest eyes

I see it now, we're gazing at the future horizons forever go on within this sound, vibrations of time wondering how, how much longer the sky is calling all of us home it whispers to us ascend your throne We are shining stars extinguishing the dark, shining from afar illuminate our ark I'll tell you how we're writing our own stories guiding all towards our light release your fears, they'll only destroy a beauty above all others this journey, we all are welcome this dream, we all can be I'm gazing at the future

I give to you and you receive your smile inciting my belief we've come too far to let go this gift of ours belongs to no one Where do we stand when we can't feel our final thoughts, what will they reveal a perfect frame of our life within the drifting thoughts of our countless sins Our True feelings are given life they sing our tales of sadness and strife convey our love with no words to speak elate ourselves to the highest peak from up above nothing is concealed phantasmic beauty, I long to be real

My Friend 06:10
Hello my friend, I've come to take you away Just follow me, I'm going to save you today All of the ones that ever hurt you are gone I know it's hard to know it's not you that's wrong Your smile can shine brighter Every day belongs to you Feel yourself growing lighter Your life dawns anew your world begins to bloom Rejoice my love, there's no more sadness to feel No painful thoughts, now you can begin to heal I'll guide you there, the place that you see in dreams Your smile can shine brighter Every day belongs to you Feel yourself growing lighter Your life dawns anew Your world begins to bloom

Inside Lives 04:43
Tangled in my web of insecurity I secretly desire to keep feeding the fire perpetually Trapped inside this net of scrutiny I reach out to the world and plunge my hand unfurled into apathy Inside lives, the place we hide Inside lives, the great divide No one knows just what they'll find These inside lives, these inside lives Inside lives, where you confide Inside lives, where the truth goes to die No one else may come inside These inside lives, these inside lives Shield myself from thoughts of anxiety They penetrate my wall, and instigate the fall of my sanity Clinging to the shreds of humanity My feelings all but burned, the last remains interned in vanity Inside lives, the place we hide Inside lives, the great divide No one knows just what they'll find These inside lives, these inside lives Inside lives, where you confide Inside lives, where the truth goes to die No one else may come inside These inside lives, these inside lives

Look upon all the world, tell me what you see chaos that reigns supreme, perpetuates the dream there's a word that can end it all but to speak it you must learn requirements that must be met, for knowledge you must yearn there's no time to live in fear for the enemy is here apathy and IGNOREance are all that they hold dear and I will show you all that is true, it's all that ever was and will always be To Know the lost word and to speak the lost word is to take this lost world and free this lost world We have always felt alone, abandoned far too young locked away deep inside, we strive to carry on self loathing left unchecked begets a state of fear people lacking self respect destroy what I revere there's no love in their plastic world for their eye is firmly closed and no Care for the real work that matters the most and I will make you see all that you do, you can't take what's wrong and make it a right To Know the lost word and to speak the lost word is to take this lost world and free this lost world

Peering through, I see you standing tall as though the concept of falling did not exist Hear me now, I feel the sound working its way into my core Redemption lies in your skies, raining down like never before Aaahhhh, can you feel it? I can feel it These settings never last, these feeling always change This world just moves so fast it leaves me feeling strange There's no time to delay, we all must persevere Towards that fateful day, we all must shed our fear We are the ones, your judgement we shall pass The final nail in your coffin we will smash We can't pretend to be any but who we are Your act of tyranny has simply gone too far Aaahhhh, can you feel it? I'm within a dream...
