Go!
Back in time, a trip takes place
Surreal surroundings
One last change to change what happened before
Caught by memory,
Days have passed
Years have gone by the feelings still the same
Seize the moment
I made it this far
Frozen in time as I see your face
I'll turn back time, to be by your side
I'll cross these lines, to save the day
You shouldn't have to walk, this world alone
I'll fight your battles, and bring you home
Stop!
Back in time, a moment's delay
Slivers of doubt
Who gave us the right to change what's done
Was it man or god,
Who really decides,
Why some live and others are taken away
Face the choices
That took us this far
Make things right this one last time
I'll turn back time, to be by your side
I'll cross these lines, to save the day
You shouldn't have to walk, this world alone
I'll fight your battles, and bring you home
Go!
I'll stop time, won't let you go
Cross these lines and save the day
No you shouldn't have to, walk this world alone
I'll stop time, won't let you go
I'll stop time, won't let you go
Cross these lines and save the day
No you shouldn't have to, walk this world alone
I'll stop time, won't let you go

I tried to be polite as you continued your reasoning
But it was all for naught, words all worlds away
Lost in delusions of grandeur, A single limping sensation
That still grasps to the echo of soemthing abandoned
Understand that it wasn't intentional
The stars just didn't align themselves the way you wanted
Not the way you saw them anyway
It's time to let go, and move forward before you consume yourself with what isn't yours to take
Chorus:
Her eyes, follow me here
(Her eyes, bleed mine)
See through, the night and the day
(She stalks my mind)
Her eyes, constantly stare
(This time I leave behind
Scream out, not fade away
(I'm not insane) (I can't kill time)
(But I like watching you)
Your defense is like kevlar with words as my bullets
But there's a sense of immunity to the truth that I'm firing at you
Now others start to get hit by the shrapnel you're detonating
Innocent friends who have no idea of the depth of your obsession
(But I like)
I didn't want you to be so bitter but that's not something I can solve
You need to assess the situation and the direction your facing
(watching you)
I never asked to be magnetic north on your compass, but you put me there anyway
This bridge isn't burning, but you're putting the matches in my hands to await the inferno
Chorus x 2

I'm going nowhere
Although it seems the same
These times are changin'
Progress just can't be tamed
We hold on to the moments
Remind you where we've been
We hold on to the moments
To see what we might just be

The Stranger

Oblivious to the change you lost
It all escaped your view
You're hideous inside
It's time you forgot yourself
Take aim (We can drive all night)
Shoot it down
And blame (Birth our secret lives)
It's all you do
All cos you f***ed someone new
Take aim (We can drive all night)
Take aim (Birth our secret lives)
Aim, aim
We can drive all night
Birth our secret Lies
When the stranger calls
You know you should lock your doors
Hate is what we’ve become

The Painted Sky

Ignore the scattered thoughts that leave
A mark on those who dare to breathe
You shouldn't let the days slip by
It's easier to bleed than try
And if you feel you're all alone
Reality can make it so
You shouldn't let the days slip by
It's easier to sleep than try
So I run and hide
Tell myself it's fake this time
The painted sky
Run and hide, back against the wall
Catch a glimpse this time before you .. fall.
Chorus:
You care too much about things
You dream them all the time
You overthink the little things
Invading your mind
You care too much to be free
The world could be a lie, it seems
The world could be a lie
Overthinking in your mind
All it seems, only to find
It's a prison
Killing time
When we painted the sky
We painted our minds
The architects of design
In dreams our fears remain
The last blood drains
Take out my f***ing eyes
Messages don’t leave
I only see my collapse
Chorus
