Breathing for a moment I (really) wanted to make this last But you gave me nothing…nothing to hold on (i’m) full of broken promises (and) I own them all to you I’m a list of failed attempts…to discover the “real you” I STILL BELIEVE THERE’S SOMETHING THERE I STILL BELIEVE YOU STILL CARE I KEEP TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT (BUT) I CAN’T STOP WISHING YOU OUT IT’S 4 IN THE MORNING AND I CAN’T GET NO SLEEP heavy rain keeps pouring from under the blackened skies as it streams down my face I keep on wondering why… I STILL BELIEVE THERE’S SOMETHING THERE I STILL BELIEVE YOU STILL CARE I KEEP TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT (BUT) I CAN’T STOP WISHING YOU OUT IT’S 4 IN THE MORNING AND I CAN’T GET NO SLEEP

We both came down “Wearing” a vengeful smile I was hoping to find To find you somewhere deep inside When all that’s left Is greeting life with death No second chances Are given to the second best (WE’RE) TAKING OVER DAY BY DAY SAME OLD STORY DIFFERENT WAY THERE’S NO FAITH OR GLORY NO SECOND CHANCES IT’S TIME TO LIVE FOR TODAY WE’LL MAKE UP FOR EACH MISTAKE SAME OLD STORY DIFFERENT WAY THERE’S NO FAITH OR GLORY NO SECOND CHANCES IT’S TIME TO LIVE FOR TODAY Share that plastic skin You know love comes from within Shake the ghosts that hunt you And keep you locked away in pain We are all lost sons of sin Hiding all that hurts and kills digging graves and mourning for all the wars we play in vain (WE’RE) TAKING OVER DAY BY DAY SAME OLD STORY DIFFERENT WAY THERE’S NO FAITH OR GLORY NO SECOND CHANCES IT’S TIME TO LIVE FOR TODAY WE’LL MAKE UP FOR EACH MISTAKE SAME OLD STORY DIFFERENT WAY THERE’S NO FAITH OR GLORY NO SECOND CHANCES IT’S TIME TO LIVE FOR TODAY

TIDAL WAVE 03:09
This World is lost inside fake dreams of liberty We strike a match and watch it burn until the end Nothing is lost ‘cause there’s no sense of unity All for themselves, nothing but an empty feed WE’RE STRANDED IN AN OCEAN OF INSECURITIES TRYING TO FIND A WAVE TO WASH OUR SOULS Feed me pills with social skills and let me be Inhale this air that makes me scared, so sickening Out on my knees, I beg you please, to show mercy Just leave me alone… WE’RE STRANDED IN AN OCEAN OF INSECURITIES TRYING TO FIND A WAVE TO WASH OUR SOULS A TIDAL WAVE WILL COME…

SET SAIL 04:47
We talk too much Without talking at all I can tell how you are Without a single word The choke and the fevers From the smoke in the mirror Makes me want to hold your hand… OHH AS YOU SET SAIL FOR THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN SIGHT ‘CAUSE WE ALL FALL DOWN (BUT) WE WILL NEVER FALL APART Laying out on the floor Thinking how you could forget Our hopes and dreams Of the lifetime we shared… The choke and the fevers From the smoke in the mirror Makes me want to hold your hand… OHH AS YOU SET SAIL FOR THE BRIGHTEST STAR IN SIGHT ‘CAUSE WE ALL FALL DOWN (BUT) WE WILL NEVER FALL APART

Place a curse on the car we’re driving Cut the breaks and let it go Cause we’re all dearly departed From the lines they keep on writing We are bored and broken hearted Driving fast into the sea Finding ways to break this silence Close your eyes and keep on riding CAUSE ALL OUR HOPES HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN SHARPEN BY DEATH THE DEATH THATS RISING Flashbacks keep on coming Now the edge is all we see As it keeps on getting closer To a greater reality It’s supposed to be traumatic Diving headfirst into the sea But the hope in me is cracking From the shadow of what we used to be… CAUSE ALL OUR HOPES HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN SHARPEN BY DEATH THE DEATH THATS RISING

TUNNA SONG 03:39
Will I make you proud or will you ever be this proud of me for helping you be whatever you wanna be… I’m here for you in all the dreams and things you wanna do I’ll try and help you…help you find the truth in you… and I swear I will never leave by your side… I SWEAR TO YOU I WILL ALWAYS BE BY YOUR SIDE I’LL STAY WITH YOU, EVEN AFTER I’M GONE I WILL LEARN TO WALK WITH YOU AND WE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH & THROUGH Don’t be afraid of going slowly each in every day… keep pushing forward until you find your way I’m here for you in all the dreams and things you wanna do I’ll try and help you…I see the strength in you… I SWEAR TO YOU I WILL ALWAYS BE BY YOUR SIDE I’LL STAY WITH YOU, EVEN AFTER I’M GONE I WILL LEARN TO WALK WITH YOU AND WE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH & THROUGH

RATS 04:08
I'm scarred of our tomorrow Can't forget yesterday Gave today a chance But things don’t come our way Everywhere they're watching The “telescreens” ain't changing (And) all of our great allies become our enemies… SO WHAT WILL WE BECOME WILL WE COME UNDONE FACING OUR DEEPEST FEARS SO WE DON’T BREAK THE MOULD WHAT WILL THE WORLD BECOME? WHAT WILL THE WORLD BECOME? THEY WILL KILL OUR FEELINGS A FAITH WE CAN’T CONTROL Dragged and separated Locked in with no windows (The) doublethink ain't working Betrayed 'till the very end The sky’s no longer dazzling And everyone is faking… The rats are getting bigger now And they’ll get the best of me… SO WHAT WILL WE BECOME WILL WE COME UNDONE FACING OUR DEEPEST FEARS SO WE DON’T BREAK THE MOULD WHAT WILL THE WORLD BECOME? WHAT WILL THE WORLD BECOME? THEY WILL KILL OUR FEELINGS A FAITH WE CAN’T CONTROL THE RATS WILL TAKE OVER THE LOVE ROOM IS OVER
