Days of Old 04:32
It used to be when nights were cold we’d warm our souls; the days of old. Older now, I see. Life is so we’re meant to go out on our own. To live out all our own dreams so you can’t tell me, “it’s over.” Oh, how surprising! You’re here but I’m alone. Just my head and me. Let it go now. What’d you say?! Yeah…You should know that I don’t feel your chains around my neck anymore. I should be the one to blame for my mistakes I may have made. I thought I paid for them. I thought I paid up. Oh, surprise me! You’re here but I’m alone again. What’d you say?! Yeah…

Pills 07:33
I’ve looked at this pill and I chose not to take it ‘stead, a life to bleed my knuckles; the sob ‘neath blankets. Hypocrites and liars with mercenary tongues clip my wings never meant to air just to dream on, blades of hair. I love, love. Love is undaunted. I found the light in darkness. See, I could die if not for love. I love, love. I can still taste it. I have seen enough to know. I have lived a life to show. I have done my time to go. I have seen the pill and chose. Why don’t you say what you mean? It’s confusing. You used to come around. Why don’t you stay here? You could abuse me. Then we could hang around. I think I’ll sail away, home. To the clouds where they wait. To the clouds…Heaven…hello.

Nova Boca 07:50
I still hear the sirens. Louder still, this silence. And it makes it hard to sleep; makes a devil out of me...makes me want to be your king. Open up that very pretty mouth of yours and swallow your words. You look very pretty now. Maybe then tonight you’ll complain about tomorrow, when it gets worse from the words of your very pretty mouth. You lingered in the shadows. Oh where, my love, did you go? Since you did go, you made it hard to need, you made a fool of me, makes me want you on your knees. You said, “I’ll love you ‘till the end.” I bet you did. Is that the same you told your friend? There’s no control, you lose and win. Now you know…

End of 3 06:39
It came down; Light, Fire, and Rain. There’s no escape. Well, then how? If not for love, we’d fall away. But the sounds are keeping me too close at bay. Mona’s love, the moon, she betrayed. Now he stares off with a smile on his face. Laughs to himself as we find our way…Juliet, to the end, Love. Danger and Love ‘till the end. You said you’d call on. In a world you left behind. Thought you’d fit it in a room this size. My heart beats fast for you. Look, I tried to find the world as she moves round and around. Don’t worry, you’re safe and fed. Clothes are stained but you’re not dead.
5.
It’s your charming eyes that tell beautiful lies. Safe in my arms, I’ll keep you warm for the night. Don’t be troubled. We’ll make it through with my love. Rest your soul with mine. We’ll find light in the night. Use me up ‘till you’re satisfied with your life. All of me I will give ‘till the day that you die. The day you die…Seasons change, but the past still remains in your eyes. So carelessly, you decide and wage a war in your rights. Open wounds stain and mark, beat from your calloused heart. Cut from under you sing, kindly asking for wings. Use me up…You will die after all the things you put me through. Burn in the garden of ignorance and lust that held us to this love isn’t what it’s supposed to…Use me up…

The Sun 03:41
“Everything is alright.” She tells me, “The sun gets closer by day, so I gave you the night. But what’d you give me? What’d you bring me? Even when I’m gone, you have birthed rights. You better move it along before there are no lights in there. Save yourself!” I think I’m ready to go home. I know you’re mad but celebrate your worth tonight. Say you will. After this, we’re only here for seasons. I guess after that…What’s the point of throwing pennies in empty wells? Your time is better spent with the ones you can tell apart from the ones you left. And the one who left. I think I’m ready to go home. I know you’re scared but celebrate your worth tonight. Say you will because after this we’re only here four more seasons. I feel your pain…I lost it all just to know that I could feel again. If you need a friend, you know me. You know who I am. I remember she told me, “There’s good if you look for it.”

The Answer 03:48
I think I’ll stay awhile. I figured I could enter into your life. Besides, I think you kind of needed me. The answer. At last! I want to stay inside ‘till I figured I have had my fill to say, “Enough” or “Goodbye” But I don’t see it happening. The answer. Hello? I think it’s time you realized if you die, you could leave all your love or hatred behind. I think me and you was just a dream.
8.
Now, all our memories are sold and tarnished. Finally found yourself a love, or so you called it. Dream away until you wake. It’s all okay, I’ll be here waiting like a fool. I’m yours to play with. I’m not alone, I know the people who won’t say it, but I can’t stay away from you. Why would I want to? Like a drug, I crave you. You were a friend, for what? The trouble within is caused by nothing less. Maybe there’s nothing there. Then start a fight, for what? There’s nothing to win because there’s nothing left. There’s nothing there. So the story goes on… It’s just a dream. Just a dream. All of this…everything. So, what if it ends tonight? I can finally fly! On to something else. But just for the moment, the highest tower I’ll climb. Designed for something else; not made for plastic wealth. So the story goes on…
