A New Beginning
03:45
|
|||
Wanted to sleep forever, I’ve been asleep forever
Dumped on my face, I find myself in this place
Where I couldn’t imagine a new beginning
Don’t know why I got up, to see if I’d erupt
Been bottled up too long, my angst been building all along
Had to find some fun before I kill me
Feel the love, feel the pain, this day will never dawn again (x2)
Suffocation aggression and avoiding depression
Went to find some fresh air, and I didn’t care where
But I still don’t believe I found it at the bar
On the dance floor I felt dumb, stuck out like a sore thumb
She didn’t seem to care, told me to do what I dare
And just as I thought ‘this can’t be’, she kissed me
Feel the love, feel the pain, this day will never dawn again (x2)
I find your lack of faith disturbing
When she left I didn’t know these feeling would grow
Didn’t know if I was ready yet, she’s like no one I’d ever met
Though I’d met her many times before
Feel the love, feel the pain, this day will never dawn again
Feel the love, feel the pain, this day will never ever dawn again
Wanted to sleep forever, I’ve been asleep forever
Dumped on my face, I find myself in this place
Where I couldn’t imagine a new beginning

Don't Panic
04:09
|
|||
Feel the fear, it’s always near, it’s everywhere you go
It’s the power of a fantasy and there’s something you should know
Because we don’t control our minds, it’s easy to hijack
With all the crap that we believe we might as well be on crack
Don’t Panic, breathe deep, don’t make it your problem
Keep that smile on your face, it’s the only way you can stop them
The always looming catastrophe, and it’s whole illusion
From your worst friend or the TV, you’ve got to be the solution
They’re pumping us with all their shit and feeding us their fears
We must have just gotten used to it, it’s been happening for years and years
Don’t Panic, breathe deep, don’t make it your problem
Keep that smile on your face, ‘cause it’s the only way
Don’t Panic, breathe deep, don’t make it your problem
Keep that smile on your face, it’s the only way we can stop them
Good and bad are the feelings that we have, which come from our thoughts
Thoughts that are based on ideas we have constructed from information we have
received, and a lot of that information is incorrect
Feel the fear, it’s always near, it’s everywhere you go
It’s the power of a fantasy and there’s something you should know
Don’t Panic, breathe deep, don’t make it your problem
Keep that smile on your face, ‘cause it’s the only way
Don’t Panic, breathe deep, don’t make it your problem
Keep that smile on your face, ‘cause it’s the only way we can stop them

Exploited
04:04
|
|||
You wanted honest work and a decent wage, now you’re wearing golden handcuffs and you’re in a cage
Going to that job every day after day, diminishing your soul so you can bring home the pay
Totally frustrated and you feel the pinch, 10 years the corporate ladder hasn’t moved an inch
Got you by the balls, they know they do, if you miss one more payment your family has no roof
Exploited
Without your health insurance you could die in the street, or just sit in emergency and be treated like meat
Heaven help you if your child needs pills, without insurance coverage you’ll be eating those bills
Prey on your guilt and target your fear, to keep the profit margin growing year after year
Careful what you say, don’t step out of line, just stay under their thumb cause there’s so little time
Exploited
Some are in the movies, and some making shoes, those children don’t know better they will die by our rules.
Even if you’re poor, doesn’t mean you’re a slave, laboring for nothing all the way to your grave
Exploited

Yesterday Is Coming
05:04
|
|||
Yesterday is coming, today you say you’re losing your mind, but
Yesterday is coming, so you can leave it all behind
Yesterday is coming, tomorrow everything will be fine, ‘cause
Yesterday is coming, the future will be yours and mine
Yesterday is coming, together ‘til the end of time
Yesterday is coming
Yesterday is coming, today you say you’re losing your mind, but
Yesterday is coming, so you can leave it all behind
Yesterday is coming, tomorrow everything will be fine, ‘cause
Yesterday is coming, the future will be yours and mine
Yesterday is coming, together ‘til the end of time
Yesterday is coming
Some days you feel like you’re stuck in the mud,
and there’s no one there to give you a hug
You need to remember that nothing will last,
and soon this messed up day will be in the past
Yesterday is coming, today you say you’re losing your mind, but
Yesterday is coming, so you can leave it all behind
Yesterday is coming, tomorrow everything will be fine, ‘cause
Yesterday is coming, the future will be yours and mine
Yesterday is coming, together ‘til the end of time
Yesterday is coming
Today you’re suffering, the tears you can’t hide
All the sorrow you feel when you’re looking inside
In the past you’ve made some stupid mistakes
But once you forgive yourself everything will be great
Yesterday is coming, today you say you’re losing your mind, but
Yesterday is coming, so you can leave it all behind
Yesterday is coming, tomorrow everything will be fine, ‘cause
Yesterday is coming, the future will be yours and mine
Yesterday is coming, together ‘til the end of time
Yesterday is coming
Some days you feel like you’re stuck in the mud,
and there’s nobody there to give you a hug
You need to remember that nothing will last,
and soon this messed up day will be in the past
Yesterday is coming, today you say you’re losing your mind, but
Yesterday is coming, so you can leave it all behind
Yesterday is coming, tomorrow everything will be fine, ‘cause
Yesterday is coming, the future will be yours and mine
Yesterday is coming, together ‘til the end of time, oh
Yesterday is coming
Yesterday is coming, today you say you’re losing your mind, but
Yesterday is coming, so you can leave it all behind
Yesterday is coming, tomorrow everything will be fine, ‘cause
Yesterday is coming, the future will be yours and mine
Yesterday is coming, together ‘til the end of time
Yesterday is coming
Yesterday is coming

Heart Wall
04:58
|
|||
Day by day, brick by brick, I built my wall, I made it thick
No one can get me when I hide inside, not my best friend
I keep away the ones I love, everyone else, same as above
Life and love pass me by, I don’t fight, I can’t cry
One by one friendships fade, sleeping in the bed I’ve made
No one can help change me, tear down my wall, set me free
Nothing grows without change. Priorities rearrange (x2)
I’m not a child anymore, could not see this before
Strong enough to take life on, won’t be long ‘til it’s gone
Brick by brick, day by day, breaking out, find a way
Open my mouth, don’t be shy, smash that wall, escape and fly
Nothing grows without change. Priorities rearrange (x2)
Ignorance, or my mind, won’t stop me, not this time
Sick of the bullsh!t I’ve been through, I love me, I love you
Day by day, brick by brick, built my wall, made it thick (repeat)

Invaders
03:26
|

Stop the invaders of our bodies
Stop the invaders of our minds
Stop the invaders of our families
Stop the invaders of our lives
Don’t give up, don’t let it get in
Don’t let them get under your skin
Stop the invaders of our planet
Stop the invaders of our homes
Stop the invaders of our silence
Stop the invaders of our souls
Don’t give up, don’t let it get in
Don’t let them get under your skin
Stop the invaders of our hopes
Stop the invaders of our dreams
Stop the invaders of our peace
Stop the invaders that get between us
Don’t give up, don’t let it get in
Don’t let them get under your skin
Don’t give up, don’t let it get in
Don’t let them get under your skin

Stories Of Water
03:30
|
|||
{explicit}
Water, water everywhere, but do we ever think
When we’re done polluting, what are we gonna drink
Two million tons of excrement put in the waters every day
Cholera and cryptosporidium, diarrhea all the way
Want some fish, you wish, now they’re only fiction
I remember when you could catch one and cook it up in the kitchen
Stories of water, stories of water
We talk and talk and fuckin’ talk but nothing really gets done
Sanitation, irrigation, our drinking water is not for fun
Industrial policy bullshit, the greedy fuckers don’t care
They are the same dumb shits that wrecked our planets air
Want some fish, you wish, now they’re only fiction
I remember when you could catch one and cook it up in the kitchen
Stories of water, stories of water
It’s time to make some changes, let’s all use our brains
Contamination sickness and plagues every time it rains
Sewage flows over deaf ears as it has done for years
I’m thirst, out of breath, I suspect it means our death
Want some fish, you wish, now they’re only fiction
I remember when you could catch one and cook it up in the kitchen
Stories of water, stories of water

Sunset Burning
04:32
|
|||
A peaceful mood, a soul needs food, our earth turning, a sunset burning
I’ve watched the last echoes of the day drift out to sea
I must let them go their own way without me
It tales the nonsense far away, beautiful, free
These warm colors and feeling don’t stay, couldn’t be
I see the change in slow motion, like learning
Our minds as vast as the ocean, tides turning
We don’t realize we know, our yearning
Do not panic, do not fear this sunset burning
A peaceful mood, a soul needs food, our earth turning, a sunset burning
The world grows dark as I stare, night falls
A gift of knowledge, true and fair, no walls
Still and quiet, a scene so rare, no malls
Sunset burning through the air, above all
A peaceful mood, a soul needs food, our earth turning, a sunset burning
I will wait for another sunset, natural wonder
It may be a long time yet, a gift from her
Even Mother Nature has bad days, lightning, thunder
After the terror, through the haze, colors we’re under
A peaceful mood, a soul needs food, our earth turning, a sunset burning
Today is beyond the horizon, what chance did I miss
One to change the shape I’m in, or to receive a loving kiss (x2)
A peaceful mood, a soul needs food, our earth turning, a sunset burning (x4)

I am healthy, I am wealthy, I am happy, I am free
Once I realize that I am you and you are me
I am special, I am unique, I am honest, I am true
Everything I say about myself I say to you
AFFIRMATION (x3)
I am calm, I am relaxed, I am learning, I am wise
And we are all connected when I open up my eyes
I am peaceful, I am open, I am power, I am grace
When I look into the mirror I see everybody’s face
AFFIRMATION (x3)
I’m creative, I am peace, I am changing, I am light
There is no good and bad, there is no wrong and right
I am patient, I am humble, I am God, I am divine
Another day in paradise, when mine is yours and yours is mine
AFFIRMATION (x3)
I am grateful, I am aware, I’m accepting, I am giving
When I am moving, I know I am living
I am perfect, I am worthy, I am whole, I am complete
I am that I am, and life as I am is sweet
AFFIRMATION (x3)
I am here, I am now, I am magic, I am grounded
How good can it get, I never cease to be astounded
I am willing, I am able, I am arcane, I am love
Whenever my life turns dark, I find a way to rise above
AFFIRMATION (x3)

Shadow Side
05:30
|
|||
I am strangely ill from terrifying events, most of them never happened
Accumulated yesterdays and fearful tomorrows, leave my will crushed and blackened
There is a part of my life that I have always denied, but I can no longer hide my shadow side
If I tell you the truth, would you leave, would you cry, or could you accept the good and bad inside
When I’m tearful or mad, and ashamed that I’ve lied, then you are seeing right into my shadow side
Senseless worry, denial of the now, habitual resistance mode
What I know as me, is not me, completely lost and out in the cold
There is a part of my life that I have always denied, but I can no longer hide my shadow side
I want to be whole, you know that I’ve tried, but I have to get past my fear and my pride
There is a choice to be made, when light and darkness collide, to either hold out my hand or show my shadow side
There is an unconscious program running all of the time, contradicting every thought
Of the artificial story that I’m telling myself, thinking that I’m cool when I’m not
There is a part of my life that I have always denied, but I can no longer hide my shadow side
When I push it way down, or try to sweep it aside, it always comes back and with a vengeance sometimes
My story’s been told, and it feels like a lie, because I left out the part with my shadow side
You have one too, you conquer and you divide, and this can only be done by your shadow side
There is a part of my life that I have always denied, but I can no longer hide my shadow side…

You Too
03:39

We’ve all been razed to think we’re just pawns in this game, but I’m here to tell you now it’s not that way
We can create our own realities and make our dreams come true so the only one you need in life is you
I have to laugh every time you cry, always play the victim always asking why
You start to quit as soon as you begin, cause the same old thoughts make the same results again
When you’re unhappy that’s you, when you’re laughing that’s you
When you’re scared that’s you, and when you’re brave that’s you too
You need to participate in your own unfolding, let go the limiting beliefs that you’ve been holding
When you’re sick and tired of being sick and tired let go and find a way to get inspired
I have to laugh every time you cry, always play the victim always asking why
You start to quit as soon as you begin, cause the same old thoughts make the same results again
When you’re unhappy that’s you, when you’re laughing that’s you
When you’re scared that’s you, and when you’re brave that’s you too
Life is on your side when your eyes and heart are open wide, allow all the good things to come your way
Give up your story, the ‘oh poor me’, stop listening to others and set yourself free
I have to laugh every time you cry, always play the victim always asking why
You start to quit as soon as you begin, cause the same old thoughts make the same results again
When you’re unhappy that’s you, when you’re laughing that’s you
When you’re scared that’s you, and when you’re brave that’s you too
It’s done unto you as you believe
When you’re unhappy that’s you, when you’re laughing that’s you
When you’re scared that’s you, and when you’re brave that’s you too

Big pharma, take a pill. They’re the reason society’s ill.
Create, Deploy, a new disease. Use the media to break our will
Take 12 a day, it’s no big deal, in the western medicine hamster wheel
After paying huge tuition, doctors lose their intuition
Arbitrarily dealing drugs, on their way to perdition
Take 12 a day, it’s no big deal, in the western medicine hamster wheel
Better have surgery ‘cause it’s never gonna heal, in the western medicine hamster wheel
Pumping kids with Ritalin, to blind them from the cage they’re in
Even feed it to adults, when they can’t deal with all their sin
Lay on the couch, tell me how you feel, in the western medicine hamster wheel
Blindly follow where they lead, the medical mafia demon seed
Mile long list of side effects, probably could have just smoked some weed
Take 12 a day, it’s no big deal, in the western medicine hamster wheel
Better have surgery ‘cause it’s never gonna heal, in the western medicine hamster wheel
Lay on the couch, tell me how you feel, in the western medicine hamster wheel

Stoned Nobody
03:10

On my last day as a stoned nobody there was something in the air
Not just the smoke from me trying not to care
On my last day as a stoned nobody there was something out my window
Everyone fighting not to hear the things they don’t want to know
On my last day as a stoned nobody there was something inside me
It felt warm, it felt strong, it felt free
On my last day as a stoned nobody there was someone beside me
She is it, she is the way that things should be
On my last day as a stoned nobody there was something I had to say
Just in case there’s no tomorrow do it today
On my last day as a stoned nobody there was something in the air
Not just the smoke from me trying not to care
On my last day as a stoned nobody I wrote this song
