1. "Life Wasted" You're always saying that there's something wrong... I'm starting to believe it's your plan all along... Death came around, forced to hear its song... And know tomorrow can't be depended on. I seen the home inside your head,... All locked doors and unmade beds. Open sores unattended Let me say just once that I have faced it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. I escaped it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. Having tasted,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. The world awaits just up the stairs Leave the pain for someone else. Nothing back there for you to find,... Or was it you, you left behind? You're always saying you're too weak to be strong... You're harder on yourself than just about anyone. Why swim the channel just to get this far? Halfway there, why would you turn around? Darkness comes in waves,... tell me,why invite it to stay? You're warm with negativity, Yes, comfort is an energy,... But why let the sad song play? I have faced it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. I escaped it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. Having tasted,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. Oh I erased it,... A life wasted,... I'm never going back again. 2. "World Wide Suicide" I felt the earth on Monday. It moved beneath my feet. In the form of a morning paper. Laid out for me to see. Saw his face in a corner picture. I recognized the name. Could not stop staring at the. Face I'd never see again. It's a shame to awake in a world of pain What does it mean when a war has taken over It's the same everyday in a hell manmade What can be saved, and who will be left to hold her? The whole world...World over. It's a worldwide suicide. Medals on a wooden mantle. Next to a handsome face. That the president took for granted. Writing checks that others pay. And in all the madness. Thought becomes numb and naive. So much to talk about. Nothing for to say. It's the same everyday and the wave won't break Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder Laying claim to the take that our soldiers save Does not equate, and the truth's already out there The whole world,... World over. It's a worldwide suicide. The whole world,... World over. It's a worldwide suicide. Looking in the eyes of the fallen You got to know there's another, another, another, another Another way It's a shame to awake in a world of pain What does it mean when a war has taken over It's the same everyday and the wave won't break Tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder The whole world,... World over. It's a worldwide suicide. The whole world,... World over. It's a worldwide suicide. 3."Comatose" Consider me an object. Put me in a vacuum. Free of all conditions. Free of air and friction. Yeh, I'll be hanging upside down. And there I will swing, for all eternity. Feel it rising,... Yeh next stop falling Feel it rising,... comatose, with no fear of falling. Consider me an abcess. Leave me in a vacuum. Blood on all the pistons. Running my transmission. Feel it rising,... Yeh next stop falling Feel it rising,... comatose, with no fear of falling. High above,...I'll break the law,...if it's illegal to be in love,... leave the hatred,.. on the cross. Yeh, I'll be hanging upside down, and there I will swing. For all eternity. Feel it rising,... Yeh next stop falling Feel it rising,... comatose, with no fear of falling. Feel it rising,... Yeh next stop falling Feel it rising. Something never thought you'd be a part of. 4."Severed Hand" Big man standing behind an open door Said, "leave your lady on the cement floor." "Got some kicks, wanna take ride?" I said, "Yeh,..." "Take your pick, leave yourself behind." I said "Yeh,..." I've no fear but for falling down so look out below, I am falling now Oh please understand, I just need my friend a way home. Tried to walk, found a severed hand, recognized it by the wedding band. "It's okay, do you want some more?" I said, "Yeh,..." "You'll see dragons after 3 or 4..." I said, "Yeh,..." "Understand, I'm not falling down" I said, "Look around, the room's taller now,..." I can't close my eyes, cause I see the sound in waves. In waves, lets me stay calm. If I don't lose control explore and not explode a preternatural other plane with the power to maintain. Like a tear in all we know once dissolved, we are free to grow "What is human?,... What is more?" I'll answer this when I get home. 5."Marker In The Sand" There is a marker,... no one sees it 'cause the sand Has covered over,... all the messages it kept Misunderstanding,... what original truth was And out expanding,... in a faith but not in love What went wrong? Walking tightrope high,... over moral ground Seeing visions of,........ falling up somehow Do come down With the living, let,... what is loving love So unforgiving, yet,...... needing forgiveness first God, what do you say? Those undecided,.... Needn't have faith to be free And those misguided, there was a plan for them to be Now you got both sides claiming killing in Gods name But God is nowhere,.. to be found conveniently What goes on? Walking tightrope high,... over moral ground Walk the bridges,......... before you burn them down Do come round With the living, let,... what is loving love So unforgiving, yet,...... needing forgiveness first God, what do you say? What do you say? There is a sickness,... a sickness coming over me Like watching freedom,. Being sucked straight out to sea An the solution?...... Well, from me far would it be But the delusion,..... Is feeling dangerous to me What goes wrong? Walking tightrope high,... over moral ground Seeing visions of,........ falling up somehow Do come down With the living, let,... what is loving love So unforgiving, yet,...... needing forgiveness first What do you say,.......... God, what do you say? Calling out,....... Calling out. Calling out,....... I'm calling you out. 6."Parachutes" Why deny All the troubles when combined with the missing links It don't feel like Home now,... The you're gone All the troubles Suddenly explained infinitum You're always wishing and Never here at home. You All the dreams we shared and Lights we turned on But the house is getting dark Ans I don't want to know your past But together share the dawn And I won't need Nothing else Cause when we're dead We would've had it all And died I would've fallen from the sky Till you Parachutes have opened now Heaven knows if there's a ceiling Come so low with the kneeling Please know that I got All the feelings I'm needing Before my light goes out As the doors are closing now And far away will be my home And to grasp this, I don't know And I don't need Further back and forth, A wave will break on me today And love,... wish the world could go again with love One can't seem to have enough And war,... break the sky and tell me what it's for I'll travel there on my own And love,... what a different life Had I not found this love with you 7."Unemployable" He's got a big gold ring what says "Jesus Saves" And it's dented from the punch thrown at work that day When he smashed the metal locker where he kept his things After the big boss said, "You best be on your way" Oh yeh So this life is sacrifice Oh yeh Jumping trains just to survive Well, his wife and kid are sleeping but he's still awake On his brain weighs the curse of thirty bills unpaid Gets up, lights a cigarette he's grown to hate Thinking if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream? Yeh, So this life is sacrificed Oh yeh To a strangers bottom line Yeh I seen the light,... Uh-oh oh oh, Uh-oh oh oh I's scared alive,... Near to death,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I seen the light,... scared alive Yeh, So this life is sacrificed Oh yeh They can't say I never tried Yeh I seen the light,... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh I's scared alive,... Near to death,... Uh-oh oh oh, Uh-oh oh oh I seen the light. Scared alive,...... Uh-oh oh oh, uh-oh oh oh Near to death Here to die. Scared alive. Near to death. Hear to die. Scared alive. 8."Big Wave" I used to be crustacean In an underwater nation And I surf in celebration Of a billion adaptations Got me a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave. Got me a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave. I feel the need Planted in me Millions of years ago Can't you see The oceans size? Defining time And time Arising Arms laid upon me Being so kind To let me ride I scream in affirmation Of connecting dislocations And exceeding limitations By achieving levitation Got me a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave. Got me a big wave, ride me a big wave, got me a big wave. I feel the need Planted in me Millions of years ago Can't you see The oceans size? Defining time And time Arising Arms laid upon me Being so kind To let me ride Got me a ride. I got me a ride. 9."Gone" No more upset mornings No more trying evenings This American dream I am disbelieving When the gas in my tank Feels like money in the bank Gonna blow it all this time Take me one last ride For the lights of this city They only look good when I'm speeding Gonna leave 'em all behind me Cause this time I'm gone Long gone This time I'm letting go of it all So long Cause this time I'm gone In the far off distance As my tail-lights fade No one thinks to witness But they will someday Feel like a question is forming And the answeres far I I'll be what I could be Once I get of of this town For the lights of this city They have lost all feeling Gonna leave 'em all behind me Cause this time I'm gone Long gone This time I'm letting go of it all So long Long gone, I'm letting go of it all Cause this time I'm gone If nothing is everything If nothing is everything, I'll have it all If nothing is everything If nothing is everything, I'll have it all I am gone 10."Wasted Reprise" I have faced it, a life wasted I'm never going back again. Having tasted, a life wasted I'm never going back again. I escaped it, a life wasted I'm never going back again. 11."Army Reserve" How long must she stand Before the ground gives way To an endless fall She can feel this War on her face Stars on her pillow Folding in the darkness Begging for slumber I'm not blind I can see it coming Looks like lightning In my child's eye I'm not frantic I can feel it coming Violently shakes My body Her son's slanted Always giving her The sideways eye An empty chair where Dad sits How loud can silence get? And Mom, she reassures To contain him But it's becoming a lie She tells herself And everyone else Father is risking His life for our freedoms I'm not blind I can see it coming Looks like lightning In my childs eye I'm not frantic I can feel it coming Darling you'll save me If you save yourself 12."Come Back" If I keep holding out,... will the light shine through? Under this broken roof,... it's only rain that I feel I've been wishing out the days,... come back I have been planning out,... all that I'd say to you Since you slipped away,... know that I still remain true I've been wishing out the days,... Please say, that if you hadn't of gone now I wouldn't have lost you another way From wherever you are,... come back And these days, they linger on And in the night, as I'm waiting on The real possibility I may meet you in my dream I go to sleep If I don't fall apart,.... will the memories stay clear? So you had to go,..... and I had to remain here But the strangest thing to date So far away And yet you feel so close And I'm not gonna question it any other way There must be an open door For you to Come back And the days, they linger on And every night, what I'm waiting for Is the real possibility I may meet you in my dream And sometimes you're there And you're talking back to me Come the morning I could swear you're next to me And it's okay. It's okay. It's okay. I'll be here Come back Come back I'll be here Come back Come back I'll be here Come back Come back 13."Inside Job" Underneath this smile Lies everything All my hopes, anger, pride and shame Make myself a pact, not to shut doors on the past Just for today,... I am free I will not lose my faith It's an inside job today I know this one thing well,... I used to try and kill love, it was the highest sin Breathing insecurity out and in Searching hope, I'm shown the way to run straight Pursuing the greater way for all,.. human light. How I choose to feel,... is how I am. How I choose to feel,... is how I am. I will not lose my faith It's an inside job today Holding on, the light of the night On my knees to rise and fix my broken soul Again. Let me run into the rain To be a human light again Let me run into the rain To shine a human light today Life comes from within your heart and desire Life comes from within my heart and desire Life comes from within you heart and desire lyrics added by Pilona - Modify this lyrics
