1. Circles In The Ground
OUTSIDE THE BORDERS YOU PUSH AND YOU PULL
FALLING FACE FIRST TO THE DIRT
IGNORING TEARDROPS FROM THE FACES
YOU'VE ALTERED
EXCHANGING EGO BOOST FOR THIRST
WHAT WAS IT YOU SAID?
YOU'D KEEP ME IN ONE PIECE
(ONE STATE OF DENIAL)
WHAT YOU DIDN'T GET INSIDE ME WAS
ONE THING
ONE PLACE IN MY MIND
MINE
NOW YOU DON'T SEEM TO MOVE ME
YOU'RE LOOKING RIGHT THROUGH ME
AND YOU DID IT TO ME
WHO'S HOLDING WHO NOW
YOU DON'T SEEM TO MOVE ME
YOU'RE LOOKING RIGHT THROUGH ME
AND YOU DID IT TO ME
WHO'S FUCKING WHO NOW
IMPRESSIONISTIC GAMES
DRAMA WRAPPED IN CELLOPHANE
BENEFITTING NO ONE IN THE DARK
SO WHEN YOU LIGHT THE FUSE
UNDERSTAND I'LL BE CONFUSED
I'M ONLY HERE TO BREAK YOUR HEART
NOW
I DON'T FEEL THIS TURN TAKING ME AROUND
I DON'T FEEL THIS WORLD BRINGING ME DOWN
I DON'T SEE CIRCLES IN THE GROUND
I DON'T SEE YOU
2. Lamhaj
I'M FEELING CLAUSTRAPHOBIC
IN A ROOM THAT'S OPEN WIDE
THE EMPTY STARE BETWEEN US HERE
IS LIKE NEEDLES THROUGH MY EYES
AFRAID TO FALL TOO EASY
AFRAID TO BE ALONE
AFRAID TO DIG THROUGH ASHES OF A
PLACE I ONCE CALLED HOME
WITHERED AWAY
THE WAY
YOU STAIN THE FACE
OF PURITY
SHADE THE TASTE
OF STALE
OF INSECURITY
THE DISTANCE NOW IS IN YOU
THE DIFFERENCE; NOW IT BECOMES ALL
BECOMES YOU
BECOMES YOU
BECOMES THE FACELESS
WITHERED AWAY
THE WAY
YOU STAIN THE FACE
OF PURITY
SHADE THE TASTE
OF STALE
OF INSECURITYHE DISTANCE NOW IS IN YOU
THE DIFFERENCE; NOW IT BECOMES ALL
DON'T LET ME DIE WITH THE STARS IN MY EYES
WITH NO COLOR
NO LAUGHTER
NO MATTER
JUST FAKE THAT SMILE
MAYBE TAKE A WHILE TO SEE
SET THE DIFFERENCE FREE
IN A MEMORY
3. O2
SHE CRIES WHEN GRAY SKIES CLEAR
HE GOES FAR AWAY
AGAIN
WE BATHE IN WATERFALLS
SWIMMING THROUGH IT ALL
AGAIN
SHE DIVES
PATIENTLY SHE WATCHES AS HE TAKES A LEAP
INTO THE DEEP END
AGAIN
WE PASS BY PRETENDING NOT TO SEE YOUR EYES
FOCUSED INTO SEA
AMENDS
SEASONS LIE
THEY COVER UP THE STAIN
FROM BLEEDING HEARTS
THEY NEVER CHANGE
KEEP YOU SANE
THEY'LL ALWAYS BE THE SAME
OLD T.V. SERIES
WE CAN'T HIDE
WE NEED ANOTHER FIX FROM LIFE
SO WE RUN
INTO AIR, INTO CLEAR
HIDING FROM THE RAIN
CHANGE YOUR MIND
I'LL NEVER TRY TO TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY
NOW I WANT OUT WHERE I CAN TASTE THE AIR
SINKING IN A WHIRLPOOL-WORLD CREATED
SUFFOCATE
SUFFOCATE
WE DIVE
STILL SOAKING FROM THE RAIN
CAN YOU TASTE THE AIR?
DO YOU TASTE THE AIR?
NO
4. New Year Evolution
5. Picture Perfect
LOOK AT ME FROM WHERE YOU ARE
CONCRETE THOUGHTS JUST FALL APART
KEEPING STILL
I LOSE MY HEAD
HOLDING ON TO A FADING DREAM
A PICTURE PERFECT OBSCURITY
KEEPING STILL
WHAT IS FOR REAL
I JUST MOVE ON
I LOOK AT YOU FROM A MILE AWAY
ONE THOUSAND WORDS
NOT A THING TO SAY
LAYING LOW
WHERE I CAN GO DOWN
PASTING PIECES OF YOUR YESTERDAY
I'M BURNING BRIDGES TO PLACE IT SAFE
LAYING LOW
I CAN'T TAKE THE STAND
I JUST MOVE ON
I TAKE IT ALL
LOOK AT US FROM A PICTURE FRAME
A THOUSAND WORDS
COULDN'T MAKE YOU STAY
KEEPING LOW
I LOST CONTROL
HOLDING ON TO YOUR MEMORY
A PICTURE PERFECT REALITY
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I'D BE THE ONE
LEFT HERE ALONE
I JUST MOVE ON
I TAKE IT ALL
6. Sleepwalk
SUDDENLY YOU STEP
OUT ACROSS THE EDGE
AND SPREAD YOUR WINGS OUT WIDE
GOT NO TIME TO REST
ONLY SECOND GUESS
AND STRAP YOURSELF IN TIGHT
STOP TELLING LIES
IT'D MAKE IT ALL SEEM BETTER
IF YOU STOPPED ON THAT DIME
AND FACE UP TO THE WEATHER
STAND ON BURNING GROUND
VOICES ALL AROUND WILL WAKE YOU
IN YOUR SLEEP
SHE WON'T LET YOU THINK
SHE'LL ONLY WATCH YOU SINK
AND LAUGH WHEN YOU DROWN
STOP TELLING LIES
IT'D MAKE IT ALL SEEM BETTER
IF YOU STOPPED ON THAT DIME
AND FACE UP TO THE WEATHER
7. Summertime
SOMEONE TOLD ME
THERE'S HOPE OUT THERE
I COULDN'T SEE IT THROUGH THE CLOUDS
SOMEONE TOLD ME
TO STAND MY GROUND
BUT MY BODY WANTS TO RUN AWAY
PLEASE DON'T TELL ME
I'M UNCONTROLLED
PLEASE DON'T TELL ME
THAT IT'S TIME TO GO
IT'S TIME TO GO
WHEN YOU'RE ALL I'VE GOT DON'T DRIFT AWAY
IT'S RAINING ON SUMMERTIME
SOMEONE TOLD ME
I WOULD DISAGREE
THAT THE WORLD COULD BE WHOLE
SO I TELL YOU
AND THESE FEELINGS FOLD
WHEN YOU'RE ALL I'VE GOT
IT'S ALL I'VE GOT
DON'T DRIFT AWAY
IT'S RAINING ON SUMMERTIME
YOUR SON IS GONE
8. Deep Blu
SAY SOMETHING
I'D SAY SOMETHING
I'D BE NOTHING MORE
THAN WHAT YOU NEED
I'M IN TOO DEEP
SAY SOMETHING
I TASTE SALTY
I'D BE NOTHING MORE
THAN WHAT YOU NEED
I'M IN TOO DEEP
HERE'S SOMETHING FOR THE VISIONS IN YOUR MIND
FEAR NOTHING BUT THE WATER IN YOUR LIFE
SCRAPE LOVIN' FROM THE OCEAN FLOOR
DON'T YOU CRAWL ON ME I'M NO SHORE
SAY SOMETHING
I TASTE SALTY
I'D BE NOTHING MORE
YOU'RE LOSING ME I'M IN TOO DEEP
HERE'S SOMETHING FOR THE VISIONS IN YOUR MIND
FEAR NOTHING BUT THE WATER IN YOUR LIFE
SCRAPE LOVIN' FROM THE OCEAN FLOOR
DON'T YOU CRAWL ON ME I'M NO SHORE
I'M NO SHORE
FAKE THAT WHAT YOU'VE GIVEN
I'M NO SHORE
TAKE BACK WHAT YOU GIVE ME
ALL THE PIECES, THEY'RE LINED UP
TRUST LIKE A TRAGEDY
WATCHIN' ME
WHERE'D THEY COME FROM
ALL THE FIGURES OVER ME
LOST IN THEIR FANTASY
HATING ME
WHERE'D YOU COME FROM
9. Inside Out
