Into the Morning Sun
Yesterday I took a trip,
into the morning sun.
And it was really great,
man it was really fun.

Yes I took a trip,
into the morning sun.
And it was really great,
man it was really fun.

I woke up in the morning,
and I brushed my hair.
Went and fed the dog,
he gave me that same old stare.

That's when I decided,
I need to have some fun.
That's when I took a trip,
into the morning sun.

Oh yes I took a trip,
into the morning sun.
And it was really great,
man it was really fun.

Oh yes I took a trip,
into the morning sun.
And it was really great,
man it was really fun.

So I found my girlfriend,
and I told her the news.
Told her I found a way,
to get rid of the blues.

Told her I took a trip,
and it was really fun.
And when she asked me where,
I told her into the sun.

And we took a trip,
into the morning sun.
And it was really great,
man it was really fun.

Oh yeah, we took a trip,
into the morning sun.
And it was really great,
man it was really fun.

Connecting the Dots
Shame has been written,
all over the walls.
We're connecting the dots,
to mans final fall.

We've blazed a new path,
of evil and hate.
We are the creators,
of our own fate.

The time has come,
to realize,
we need to change,
our ways.

We must appease,
the peace before,
it becomes,
too late.

Darkness is rising,
an evil inside.
Everyone needs to,
open their eyes.

We've fallen to hatred,
evil and greed.
Money and power,
is not all you need.

The time has come,
to realize,
we need to change,

Lucky Man
As of late,
I've had some troubles.
And seems like,
they're about to double.

But everything,

As long as I,

Just to bring,
some good food home.

But everything,

As long as I,

Ocean Blue
Summer nights alone,
breeze blowing through my hair.
Just me and my boat,
and the cool ocean air.

But being alone,
is not always nice.
I'd love to love someone,
before I die.

But I find myself alone,
sailing the sea.
And I am living a life,
were I'm not satisfied,
with the summer breeze.

All I need is you,
we'll sail the ocean blue.
Just you and me,
out on the sea,
there's no where else,
I would rather be.

So I took my boat,
down to find some mermaids.
But had no luck,
my love began to fade.

So I turned around,
cursed myself some more.
Arrived back at the docks,
to find you waiting on the shore.

Now I wasn't alone,
sailing the sea.
And I am living a life,
where I am satisfied,
with the summer breeze.

All I needed was you,
lets sail the ocean blue.
Just you and me,
out on the sea,
there's no where else,
I would rather be,
than with you.

Regicide
Regicide,
the king has died,
people rejoice in the streets below.
Thanking, their god.

They stayed strong,
and for so long,
waiting for a man that would **** the king.
And now, they sing.

They cheer for,
a murderer,
a coward who killed a man,
just trying to do his job.

They forget,
challenges he met,
and that they voted for him.
They wanted him to win.

Now he's dead,
and they quote what he said,
"success comes with sacrifice".
And he was their sacrifice.

Hate is flowing through your veins,
as you slowly grasp your gun.
Who do you expect to live,
no one.

Look at what you've become,
just a product of war.
You don't want to live your life,
like this anymore.

The fire in your eyes,
shows you want to stay alive,
you are just trying to survive.

But your just a product of war,
trained to ****.
Begging for more,
more to ****.

You weren't always like this,
a product of war.
Once you were a kind and humane person,
now you're a life taking *****.

Your moral rights, are wrong,
you **** people to **** time.
Fighting for what you think is right,
letting those ******* lie to you is a crime.

The fire in your eyes,
shows you want to stay alive,

Something Inside
The words slip out of my mouth,
I can't keep them inside.
I can't keep holding this in,
I can no longer hide.

But I can't pick the right words,
I don't know what to say.
I don't know how to tell you,
you save my life everyday.

Something is inside of me,
it's ravaging my soul.
That something is killing me,
it's swallowing me whole.

And I can't pick the right words,

This disease, inside of me,
will take my life away.

Alone Man
Never leaves his house, only leaves to get the mail,
through over grown bushes, always walks the same trail.
Use to spend every Sunday praying, in the house of the Lord,
as soon as he was done, sped away in his rusty old Ford.

Always alone,
he’s Alone Man.
Doesn’t want to be another drone,
Alone Man.

Not invited to anything anymore, because he never shows,
as for where is family went, no one really knows.
Talks to himself in the mirror, every single day,
“*******” is the only thing he ever seems to say.

Always alone,
he’s Alone Man.
Doesn’t want to be another drone,
Alone Man.

When night finally falls, the lights never go out,
we hear a lot of screaming, all he does it shout.
Yelling at his mirror, an argument going on,
it goes on and on forever, all the way until dawn.

It’s the first time he’s left his house, in about fifty years,
only because inside his body, he ain’t got anymore moving gears.
Now he lives in a rectangle box, buried underground,
no tombstone, no worries, now he can’t be found.

Always alone,
Alone Man.
Forever alone,
The Alone Man.

Spending nights together,
under the moonlight.
Sharing laughs together,
everything feels right.

All of the stars reflect,
in your light brown eyes.
They light up and sparkle,
just like fireflies.

And we go together,
like apples do with pie.
And we'll live forever,
I promise I won't let us die.

We can dance, and make love,
in the streets tonight.
We can do, anything,
under city lights.

People will ask us,
why we are so crazy.
Because you have to live, before you die,
or life's a tragedy.

A Tale of Two Friends
Sometimes, you have to wait,
for things like love.
It comes, beautifully,
like a white dove.

It can be painful waiting,
for life to pass.
You'll miss it though when it's gone,
it goes by fast.

Time is, the enemy,
battling life.
Slitting us, by the throat,
with a butter knife.

Life will show you no mercy,
unforgiving.
But don't let that stop you,
stop you from living.

When you've fallen victim to time,
always keep this in mind.
Your life was not lived to die,
life was lived to be alive.

Time kills, and likes to die,
noose around neck.
Death takes, advantage of,
the nervous wreck.

Over time, comes brother death,
wanting your soul.
Takes your life, in one big bite,
eating you whole.

When you've fallen victim to time,
always keep this in mind.
Your life was not lived to die,
life was lived to be alive,
your life was lived to be alive.

Hey you, lets run away,
find a quiet place to stay.
Lie under the morning sun,

Lets turn our hate into love,

Spread our love throughout the land,
and we'll do it, hand in hand.

Tell you what I'm going to do,
I'm going to lose myself in you.
Lets show the world what we got,
and lets do it while we're still hot.

Lets do it while we're still young,
sing every song that can be sung.
Lets show the world just what we got,
run forever, till we get caught.

Now I know that you’re still young,
but I know you want to run.
Run until we're old and weak,
but our love will still proceed.

And our love will still go on,
proving we did nothing wrong.
Our love will always be here,

Death Wants You
Buried underground,

Was it really worth it,
just to hold a gun.

Went into the army,
sent him off to war.
Thought he would return soon,
but we begged for more.

Another life was taken,
at the hands of war.
Another family mourning,
rocked down to the core.

But the world keeps fighting,
have we gone to far?
We chose to take peace, and replace it,
with a giant scar.

Young men, marching forward,
to an open grave.
Fighting for their country,
something they can't save.

Death is watching over them.
with his piercing eyes.
Waiting for them to die,
so he can takes their lives.

Your walking through the mall,
what do you see?
A teenage girl,
pretty as can be.

But by the magnitude of her beauty,
your mind concludes,
that she is a *****,
and is very rude.

Have you ever talked to her once?
Do you even know her name?
Do you think you are God?
Do you find Judgement to be some sort of game?

For all you know,
she could be bruised to the bone.
With a father that beats her,
he likes the way she moans.

But you know nothing,
and still you judge.
Holding against her,
an imaginary grudge.

Perception, perception,
mother of deception,
and not like one of them Megatrons.

Perception, perception,

Who made you a God?
Who do you think you are?
Who made you a God?
Who do you think you are?

Your nature disgusts me,
labelling people like it's your job.
I'm asking you to trust me,
stop making people you don't know sob.

Why judge the book by it's cover,
when the words inside are worth so much more?
Why consider every man a ****,
or every women to be a *****?

Words hurt like sticks and stones,
if the person throwing has a good arm.
They have been known to break bones,
leaving your self respect to be disarmed.

Perception, perception,
mother of deception,
and not like one of them Megatrons.

Prison System
Capitalism,
a prison system.
Worshipping the rich,
the poor is their *****.

Money and more money,
something they find funny.
Giving them supreme rule,
over the common fool.

Eat my money,
eat some more!
Eat my money,
greedy ******!

Eat my money,
eat some more!
Eat my money,
greedy ******!

A politic man,
extends his right hand.
Sends a bad vibe,
as he takes a bribe.

Liars and scams,
as we become the ******.
The government that we respect,
is now our suspect.

Eat my money,
eat some more!
Eat my money,
greedy ******!

Eat my money,
eat some more!
Eat my money,

Capitalism,
a prison system,
lying when they speak.

Capitalism,

Brother,

Brother, can't you see,

Brother, won't you see,

Brother, have we lost,

Brother, can we erase,
all that has gone bad.

Brother, have we killed,

Magnetics
Opposites attract,
the loving dove.
Rules of magnetics,
that apply to love.

The north and the south,
are no different.
Other than their names,
which are irrelevant.

Magnets never fail,
magnets never die.
As will our love,
as will you and I.

I am finally here,
I am here to stay.
I will give you the love you deserve,
always, everyday.

Magnets can't attract,
when they're far apart.
But we're always together,
inside our hearts.

The strength of a magnet,
cannot be compared,
to our love,
for our love is rare.

Magnets never fail,
magnets never die.
As will our love,
as will you and I.

I am finally here,
I am here to stay.
I will give you the love you deserve,
always, everyday.

But unlike our love,
anything can get,
in between the connection,
of a magnet.

Forever and always,
always and forever.
When will we see the end,
never, we will never.

Magnets never fail,
magnets never die.
As will our love,
as will you and I.

I am finally here,
I am here to stay.
I will give you the love you deserve,
always, everyday.

Magnets can't attract,
when they're far apart.
But we're always together,
inside our hearts.

Mommy and Daddy
Little boy sitting in his room,
voices outside the door scream.
Mommy and daddy,
fighting again.
Family falling apart at the seams.

Every night daddy comes home,
he's inebriated.
Yells at mommy,
cause dinners not done,
it's half past one.

Mommy's to busy,
mending her heart,
a wounded soul.
And daddy shows no love,
no affection.

And the boy is spinning,
round and round,
out of control.
Doesn't know where to go,
he's lost direction.

Mommy walks into his room,
sits down on his bed.
Tear slowly roll down her face,
as she slowly says:

"Mommy and daddy need a break,
all our love is gone.
I love you,
and he does too,
but this just can't go on."

And the boy cries,
the boy cries,
the boy cries,
the boy cries.

And he cries,
and he cries,
and he cries,
and he dies.

Because daddy shows no love,
no love,
no love,
no love.

No love,
no love,
no love,
no love.

And the boy is spinning,
round and round,
out of control.
And he doesn't know where to go,
where should he go,
where can he go?

He's lost direction.
He's lost direction.
Shows no affection,
has no direction.

Propaganda
Can we see,
or have we lost sight,
of what is wrong,
and what is right.

Are we lost,
or do we know,
where we are,
and where to go.

Propaganda,

A clear mind,

and your temptation.

Are we blind,
to all the lies,
corporations,

Feeding them,
aimlessly,
giving them,
our money.

Propaganda,
and temptation,
both lead you,
to a damnation.

A clear mind,
attempts salvation,
of your thought,
and your temptation.

Why are we giving them,
our hard earned money?
For them to horde away,
in endless bank accounts.
For them to use,
against us.
Dangling it above our heads,
giving them power!

Propaganda,
and temptation,
both lead us,
to our damnation.

A clear mind,
attempts salvation,
of our thought,
and our temptation.

Stop giving them money,
that's what they want.
Stop giving them power,
that's what they need.

Questions
What happened to forever?
What happened to love?
Have we lost our motivation?
Are we no longer one?

Can we fix what we once had?
What did our love lack?
What did I do wrong?
And can we ever go back?

Questions go unanswered forever and ever.
Never thought I'd lose you,
not never,
not ever.

Why did you disown me?
Why did you go so far?
Why did you have to split a family?
Why did you tear us apart?

What did I do to you?
Why do you hate me?
What did I do wrong?
Will you ever accept me?

Questions go unanswered forever and ever.
Never thought I'd lose you,
not never,
not ever.

Sometimes I feel like,
you will never really accept me.
Wasted years trying to fix myself again,
and you still reject my hand.

Questions go unanswered forever and ever.
Never thought I'd lose you,
not never,
not ever.

Why did you disown me?
Why did you love me?
Look what you did to me.
Killed me, killed me.
I'm free, I'm free.

The Man on the Wall
Looking up, at the man on the wall,
waiting for the day he finally falls.
Standing proudly, standing tall,
waiting for the day he finally falls.

A trial of nature verses man,
the destruction is getting out of hand.
Over reliance of the Amazon,
if we don't stop, it will soon be gone.

Continuous polluting of the atmosphere,
causing the world to live in fear.
This is what has become of all mankind,
we're turning into muted minds.

Looking up, at the man on the wall,
waiting for the day he finally falls.
Standing proudly, standing tall,
waiting for the day he finally falls.

International egos, out of control,
we need to look at the world as a whole.
The government has gained to much power,
it's time to take back what's ours.

Technology advancing far too fast,
becoming societies cast.
We're disgracing all of mankind,
preferring machine over mind.

Looking up, at the man on the wall,
waiting for the day he finally falls.
Standing proudly, standing tall,
waiting for the day he finally falls.

We are the man on the wall,
waiting for ourselves to fall.
Standing proudly, standing tall,
we will be the creators of our downfall.

Who Am I? (Pt.2)
What is being sane?
When everyone goes insane,
and you do not,
you are the odd one out.
And when you are the odd one out,
you slowly begin to doubt,
that you are really sane.
Maybe the others are right,
maybe you are wrong,
maybe they chose the right path,
and you did not.
When the insane call you insane,
who is really insane?
And who is to decide,
who actually is insane?
If it were up to the insane,
the insane would be sane.
And if it were up to the sane,
the sane would stay sane.
But how do we know,
the sane are sane,
for they may be insane,
and the insane may be sane.
So who am I,
to say I am sane,
when I may be insane.

Lies
It is up, to the mind,

all the truth, from the lies,

For the truth, it will hide,

Over time,

Faults by man,

Forever Gone?
Don’t drift to far away,
and tell me that you’ll please stay.
I don’t want it to end this way,
tell me that you’ll please stay.

I have searched far and wide,
looking for reasons I cant find,
to convince myself that you aren’t gone,
cry myself to sleep in the early dawn.

But I have had no luck,
I’ve been completely and utterly ******.
You said I ruined what could have been forever,
but I’m telling you now, I would never.

So if you go,
do it real slow,
I want to spend every second I can with you.
And as we cry,
don’t forget to say goodbye,
and smile, because we’ll see each other again.

Don’t leave me,
I’ll die without you.
I need you baby,
and you don’t have the slightest clue.

I’ve fallen off track,
and there’s no turning back.
I’ll never be the same,
and I’ll never forget your name.

So if you go,
do it real slow,
I want to spend every second I can with you.

Love and Greed
Converse among your enemies,
find ways to not disagree.
Resolve conflicts among each other,
love everyone like a brother.

We shouldn’t have to live like this,

We shouldn’t have to fight like this,
just to stay alive.

There’s no need to live with such hate,
there’s no need to eliminate.
Your wars and violence are unnecessary,
this is not our final plea.  

We shouldn’t have to live like this,
just to survive.
We shouldn’t have to fight like this,
just to stay alive.

We are done,
we will no longer stand for your ignorance.
We are done,
we will no longer live with fake innocence.

Drop your guns,
all violence must cease.
Unite as one,
and lets all live in peace.

Rise up to the challenge,
take action.

Because we shouldn’t have to live like this,
just to survive.
We shouldn’t have to fight like this,
just to stay alive.

control our world.
Love and peace,
