1. BY ALL MEANS, CAPTAIN

[Instrumental]


2. PATTERNS

Falling from a second story window
Patterns collide when i hit the ground
Remind me never to look down again

Come on come on dance it up
Get on the dance floor and bring it all night


3. HONEST HITCHHIKERS ASKING FOR CASH HANDOUTS

I used to be someone you knew
From the beginning he dreamt of conquering
The obsession of his life had begun to outdo
Anything anyone had ever done before

From a clear sky he stared
Upon where he had started from

All that's left to own is yourself

I have a cold sidewalk to sleep on
And I brave city walls that have eaten men alive
I am the Hitchhiker.
Where will I be tomorrow?
Please feel sorry so they won't have to.
The first person that listened to me was you.
Where I'm from,
Where I'm going,
Is not important
You'll probably never see me again

All that's left to own is yourself


4. EXIT ROW

I remember my nails being longer.
Have I been that stressed?
Running away from your problems,
Is worse than facing them I guess.

The guy next to the exit seems content.
Is this his way to or from?
Maybe this is an emergency


5. GIANTS IN THE OCEAN

Boundless water in an eternity frame of mind
And all that's lost is our time
Peaks break through open sky that grasps for land below

Mountains climb and topple on themselves
Steel breaks wave and sounds lull us to sleep
All things drift quietly away

Forget your cell phone man, it won't work here

My cameras zoom - it captures all that might embrace it
Unsteadied ice creates the wake in deeper places
Oh darling I can't bare the thought of separation
The years will pass and we'll forget just how this made us

There is substance in this silence
The proof of what surrounds us
Photographs are a mirror image
Look deep and see yourself in them

Seasickness, ancient forests, and water creatures
Keep us from thinking about home


6. SHE IS JUST A GLITCH

Something you once told me,
No regrets no wasted efforts,
I'm left in the wake of your returning glory.
You look so confident in your decision,
Or the light of your indifference

So pure in your deception,
So right in your mind,
This is just my luck,
It's always been my luck.
Come closer so I can see you.
Your cold to the touch.
Hasn't anyone ever told you this is just my luck?
Say what you will,
You're no longer the death of me,
This whole shipwreck has been sent to sea.
So go ahead and take what you will from me.
It doesn't matter, i've been set free.

And I am running out of words.
And I am running out of time.
To explain to you what we could have been.
Now the chance is over and i'll admit that I am just fine today.
I am just fine today.
I'll admit that to you.
I am just fine today.
You won't bring me down again


7. OPPOSITE VIEWED IN REAL TIME

I watched men return to their destruction,
Reversed ruin in the puzzle of time.
I watched the bullets fly in wrong directions,
Enter the guns that first fired them.

Backward flying planes.
They must have been a sight to see.

Missiles torn and taken back
To the men ordered to harm me

The knife repairs the wound.
The eraser creates the line.
Beginnings fit into an hour.
Opposites viewed in real time.

Wake up:
Dazed on the battlefield.
Shells scatter and run away.
This place is familiar,
It's where I grew up.

The earth was created with a bomb.

It slips away.
That is true.

Time does fly, but where does it go to?

My crippled pride before you burns.
I am but a weak shell of existence on a calendar


8. EVERYTHING PERFECT ON THE WRONG DAY

Take all your regrets,
And throw them aside.

Let's hope that you survive,
The "you deserve better"'s and blatant lies,
Told by your closest enemies.
You wanted all you couldn't get
And now you're sick over my treasons.

I hope you never notice.
But what's done is done,
And now I can't come back.
I'm just chasing after,
What I can't reach


9. THE MESSENGER

The messenger came out of nowhere.
The name was clear, yet unreachable.
All around us and we never even thought to look.
It was tearing us apart.

This is the Fact,
The message is clear.
You cannot deny it.
They are here.

The reminder was vague,
Oh, the lesson so glorious.
Our hearts were made
For a much higher purpose

You Wouldn't Think, but
Everything happens for a reason,
The greet,
The meet,
The kiss,
The fight,
The break,
The tears,
The lies,
The knife
Stay away from the emergency exit,
We aren't quite done yet.

We stared and stared and stared into those blank eyes.
It is burning,
The messenger was here.

Be careful of that mind of yours,they say.
It can play tricks on you when you're led astray.

Pollute the mind and your asking for it.
Thinking that life matters is an overstatement.
There is a larger war going on than guns and missiles,
And it is too close for comfort.

I have found deeper meaning in this game,
I have found deeper meaning.
And I am scared to hell because of it.
But I know I will not look away.
Fear is another way of saying you realized the deeper secrets of mankind.
And is there a reward for winning the game?
You will simply be left behind.

This is the fact,
The Message is clear,
You cannot deny it,
He is here
