All of the luck it went to you. Feeding you with a silver spoon. My stuggles stems for making ends meet Your ends were sewn together early and neat. Man, where is my castle I'm a man without a castle Yea life is a hassle I'm a man without a castle. I am without oppurtunity that you take for granted isn't free for me. My struggle stems from making a name but yours opens doors to fortune and fame. Man, where is my castle I'm a man without a castle Yea life is a hassle I'm a man without a castle. All I was told to do when I grew up was keep trying my best But then I turn on the tube and watch in awe some lives are just effortless.

Simple You 03:20
No need to know what's the weather, There's always sun when we're together. And when we formed our loving pair, You made me feel like a millionaire. I don't want the golden sun, I don't want the silver moon, I don't want the crystal seas, I just want the simple you. No need to talk of da Vinci, Don't feel a need to impress me. While he had tried to reach the skies, You took me there with just your eyes. I don't want the golden sun, I don't want the silver moon, I don't want the crystal seas, I just want the simple you.

Sleep 03:08
Alarm clocks attacking my brain and I Can't afford to hit the snooze again. But I wait Wake up late Not enough time to get some food on my plate Why? Is this hurting my head Could have chose something easy instead And I try Try so hard I can't let loose or i'll just fall right apart What if I told you there's no heaven or hell? No common notion that I'm here to sell... What if I told you a belief that I keep? That after life we all get sleep How? Can I waste my time? Knowing this, it seems like such a crime. And I try, and I try To make it count before I say goodbye. What if I told you there's no heaven or hell? No common notion that I'm here to sell... What if I told you a belief that I keep? That after life we all get sleep [solo] What if I told you there's no heaven or hell? No common notion that I'm here to sell... What if I told you a belief that I keep? That after life we all get sleep

Bad Faith 03:39
As fate would have it the other day I came across an alien race They seem to live just below the ground I can't believe what I had found Their lizard bodies stood eight feet tall I knew I stood no chance at all And just as I considered myself dead They turned to me and then they said Won't you come down with us We'll show you some secrets Like how all of time is conceived I said no thanks I'll leave My fleeing motive was very clear What got the best of me was fear They could have told me how it all began but in the end I'm a cowardly man At night I still twist and I turn wondering what it is that I could learn My dreams were stuck on constant replay over and over I hear them say: Won't you come down with us We'll show you some secrets Like how all of time is conceived I said no thanks I'll leave [solo] I went back to the cave again Not a trace was left by them Missed my chance to understand it all feel so small feel so small never will hear them call Won't you come down with us We'll show you some secrets Like how all of time is conceived Where are you going please don't leave

Our Garden 04:00
I know a place where we can rest Away Far away from this tangled mess where fruit weightlessly dances off the tree and snakes, are carved in stone, they're just scenery Winding pathways all tinted green As we make our way across Where the world still holds some mystery In the garden of our love Far away from stressed city streets Where all the noise is soft Blooming brings serenity In the garden of our love Wind Carries our words like seeds and Earth A common ground for you and me and sun dripping through the leaves warmth that brings some energy and rain dripping similarly needed for balance and purity Winding pathways all tinted green As we make our way across Where the world still holds some mystery In the garden of our love Far away from stressed city streets Where all the noise is soft Blooming brings serenity In the garden of our love We get wrapped up in feeling as the flower petals close guided by the moon its us and the garden of our love.

Daniel 05:51
[verses] It was late this winter when we got the news from Daniel, our leader, of a monster who's human-like body was an insult to life and had hell's fires glowing bright in his eyes. And so we stood there paralyzed As Daniel talked of its great size Wings that spanned all the sky As if to hide us from God's eye. And then he said This thing's a plauge that can't be spread It is so infectious and we will call it Sartious. [Chorus] Oh Daniel, won't you please deliver us from this? Oh Daniel, if you say this really does exist... then Make haste and go depart so you can face this evil and pierce it's heart Oh Daniel, if you need me I'll assist. [verses] Several days had passed until we reached the beast it's shadow feasting on the village beneath I said to Daniel "This doesn't make sense, because this monster hasn't made a single offence." And so he paused and deeply sighed and turned to me with saddend eyes Yes I understand this thought but the Lord would want me to take the first shot. And then he aimed his bow and arrow with some disdain Released the string and thus begun How everything had come undone. [Chorus] [needs more] Oh Daniel, can you feel how everything does shake Oh Daniel, let us hear this last speech it will make And from his fangs, Yeah I found it odd, He spoke not of Satan But the Word of God. Oh Daniel, I think we've made a big mistake. [ending] Mankind, you enigmatic thing, This defense is intolerance. Your hands hold matters stained with blood Found His Word but your ears, they misheard.

Always bearing custody, designated effigy. Hurled into jail, key-less lock, mmmm no peculiar shock. Time unforgiving, victim's woe, X's, Y's = zero. Once I too had fears of these three things, so for peace: five fingers and six strings. step by step I walk this earth taking in a moment's worth side to side I glance around I'm overcome by sight and sound hotter, hotter grows the air under all these masks i still feel bare all eyes are judgements, scanning me i'm boiling in humanity choking, choking, losing air body trembles, I am scared this old friend who visits me I call him Anxiety.

Buzz 03:53
[Verse/chorus] Buzzing of the bees A hum in the distance intriguing me Steps draw me near I enter their world while mine disappears My minds in the hive I'm being awakened while going inside Gold lines the walls I'm beckoned with splendor and distant calls. [Bridge] Follow the voices that are calling me I see the beauty of the bee All united, no questions asked To serve the state with their given task. And after all I'd seen The one calling me was the Queen. [Ending] Go out my son spread this pollen Speak our truths, oh, Manifesto

Red Evening 05:29
I know a man with a silver tongue tried to sell me the world tried to sell it to anyone. And in all of our despair willfully gave him our ear and listened to him captivate. Now many years have passed up by since that man and his lie stormed through here like a hurricane. Our comrade has betrayed us all. A man, a legend that we could believe. He walks beside you and me, in these ruins we call streets. So solemnly he speaks, of red skies and bright stars, as if to move to Mars, and release our spoiled hearts, and unite us. Now we're done, back to this, square one. 3x I don't want to wait another second for miracles My hands and all these bricks, will rebuild, one by one. There's no solution sitting in the sky There's only us, our struggles and our drive.
