1. No Saviour
All things will change
Just like the rain will fall
As each day will die
The next will arise to the call
Of the sun and the moon
We're just needles in the hay
And we're lost but assume
We can find the way
Is there no savior?
And after all compassion is spent
Who'll be the failure?
Of the saved, the damned, the innocent
Am I to wait here?
And watch the melting sky descend
Condemned to failure
Of the saved, the damned, the innocent
All things will fade
Chained like a slave to the call
2. Desperate Heart
Call to the mirror on the wall
Is there anyone at all?
That would bear the lies you weave
To chains like anchors in this sea
I'm drowning, ever doubting
Quicksand savior hear my prayer
When I'm alone
And new religion's home
Is filling in the hole
Deep within my desperate heart
I'll turn
To cross the bridge I've burned
I guess I'll never learn
The enemy within my desperate heart
I'll be for you
Call to the mirror on the wall
Is there anyone at all?
How can you face the lies you weave
When in your eyes I know you see
3. Never Surrender
I can't wish away your wounds
But I can help you stand
To face the day, to find your way
I can't hold the rains, the winds
But I can let you in
Till the sun can chase the storm away
When you surrender to the doubt
And your tears are running out
And your heart's so numb you're not sure you're alive
Never surrender
You can't let it end here
You got to fight
I can't wish away your pain
But I can help stand
To face the day, to find your way
I can't erase your stains, the sins
But I can let you in
So time can chase your wounds away
When all you taste is life's long race
To crush that bitter pill and swallow hard
You'll choke on empty pride
And waste that hollow soul on misery
You know you've got to fight
4. Don't Tell The Rain
Well I've been lonely
I've seen division take it's toll
And I've been hungry
I've seen this prison take it's hold
Nailed to the notion
That I'll be alone forever
Don't tell the rain
That my heart can't live alone
Don't tell the rain
That I can't take it anymore
Don't tell the rain
Cause I need the sun to shine
Don't tell the rain
It's allright, I'll be fine
Well I've been lonely
I've seen desperation take it's toll
And I've been hungry
I've watched this prison steal my soul
Nailed to the notion
That I'll be alone forever
Long nights and cold fire
It all feels like time I've wasted
But I'll hold tight, embrace the light
I won't live alone forever
5. Sleeping In The Fire
Face pressed to the grind
This mountain that you climb
Is only getting higher
And it feels like
(And it feels like wasted time)
Wasted time
(And hope's dim light will fade to die when it's over)
And hope's light fades
(When it's over)
And you're sleeping in the fire
You choose the ultimate surrender
Slide across your life into the night
You're sleeping in the fire
Soul pressed to the grind
The flames you tried to fight
Are only getting higher
Hold back the night
You got to keep your head up high
You can't surrender to the fire
Let hope's light shine
6. Endless Grey
Wait it out, the winds are changing
A waste of time to keep on chasing you
I always lose
No, I won't pretend my eyes are blinded
I won't be left to play the fool
Enough is enough and I've decided
I'm not living a lie for you
One lie, wrong or right
I dream of truth in black and white
And you in endless shades of grey
your pale heart won't change
Wait it out, my fate is turning
But in my heart flames's still burning for you
I always lose
7. Never Let You Go
I've searched for so long and so far
To find someone like you
If I can hold out, this worn heart
Might find the strength it knew
And the pale blue of loneliness abides
The heart to ebb like the pale water's ride
Everything I knew has changed
I swore this heart would never ever break
So promise me you'll never leave me here alone
I could never let you go
(You're my everything)
(You're all I ever need)
(I can't believe the way I feel about you)
(I'll never let you go)
I've searched for so long and so far
To find a love that's true
If you can trust in this worn heart
I'll spend my life with you
Well, I found never ending light
And I found faith and hope
And I ain't letting go
And I'll fall free and I'll fall fearlessly
Into you, out of me
So promise me you'll never leave me here alone
And I won't let you go
8. Barely Holding On
The fires rage but you've got to breathe
You can't hold out for healing hands
You got to make some changes on your own
The waters rage, it's sink or swim
You can't hold out for a helping hand
You've got to make the shoreline on your own
When that fear of falling never fades
And the doubt that's calling knows your name
And the hope that you once knew seems to fade
And the maze goes around and around again
You've got a heart that's filled with fire
You've got your hands to pull you up
You've got to feed your heart's desire
Can't keep living like you're barely holding
The fires rage but you've got to breathe
You can't hold out for healing hands
You got to make some changes on your own
The desert sand reaches endlessly
You can't hold out for a helping hand
You got to make the journey on your own
9. Age Of Innocence
It came so easy, spread just like disease
And at that moment I believed
All words were spoken like weapons or deceit
To rot forbidden truths I seek
You bleed me, deceive me
You left me hanging on a wire
You bleed me, deceive me
You left this hole inside my heart
This fading rose will turn to dust
And this tarnished gold will turn to rust
And this mountain's stone will perish to the winds
So ends the age of innocence
You lied so freely, like a fool I just believed
But at that moment I could see
Your words were spoken like weapons or deceit
To rot forbidden truths I seek
10. The Method
There must be method to this madness
And at some point I imagine
I will finally manage to find truth amidst your lies
As I search amongst the demons
To find something to believe in
A cause with much less meaning I'll not be martyred for the right
And I do know when I fall
The frailty of my cause will seem like
Faint hope that fades slow
Like deluded ghosts and memories that hide
In my mind, the heart's lies
Sure feel like hope, but I know
And I've tried and I'm tired
And faiths healed no wounds that I've known
And some things don't ever change
The method to this madness
Resolution in this havoc
Will come when I have managed to find truth amidst your lies
As I've searched amongst the demons
To find something to believe in
A cause with much less meaning I'll not be martyred for the right
In my mind, the heart's lies
Sure feel like hope, but I know
And I've tried and I'm tired
And faiths healed no wounds that I've known
And some things don't ever change
11. Come Clean
Did you ever think you'd see the day
We'd burn the churches down?
Did you ever think we'd let it get this far?
When the dark of night forgot the stars
Emraced the falling sky
Did you ever thing we're running out of time
It's never too late
Through the writings on the wall
To elude fate
And call for change
When the tears come down
Like the pouring rain
And we'll al come clean
Time heals all wounds, eases all pain
And the winds of change
Will come around
And we'll al come clean
Time heals all wounds, eases all pain
Did you ever think you'd see the day
We'd burn the bridges down?
Did you ever think we'd let it get this far?
When the dark of night forgot the stars
Emraced the falling fire
Did you ever thing we're running out of time
12. Your Disguise
Your bleaches white soul hides
The darkest seed
And each lie you drive like
Another nail unto me
I'm just another fool
That can't get over you
Cause every time I try
You're waiting
With begging eyes and tears you've cried
And empty promises of change
I wanted to believe the lies you weave
I fell in love with your disguise
This blood red heart's shed
Too many tears
As the wind slips from your lips
Another lie that I fear
