I was once one of you
No longer do I laugh
Life's no longer funny
When the train jumps off the track

With eyes that no longer shine
And hearts that no longer break
These wheels keep on spinning
On this trip through outer space...

Running from the thunder
Hiding in the trees
Superstitious people
Your will is hardly free
Casting the unlikeliness
Of a loving killing god
Stolen from the pagans
By a crucifying mob

It's time to wake up
WAKE UP

Worshipped on the mountain
Forsaken down below
Superstitious people
Fearing for their soul
Casting their inventions
Making holy war
Pretending not to notice
The ****** killing floor

It's time to wake up
WAKE UP

ANOTHER SONG I WROTE
IN MY OLD BAND
HEAVY ALTERNATIVE
Sound like
Godsmack meets tool

Mesmerized by a long forgotten melody
Spellbinding this haunting familiar sound
Reminds me of the victim I used to be
It strikes an emotion that brings me down

Unfathomable these pulsating rhythmic electric vibes
That make up the hidden parts that keep us alive
Reaction that cause us to revisit tragic memories
Which don't seem to have any quick remedy

Sounds, smells and things we see
Dramatic experiences are also triggers and keys
There are many ways through the unconscious realm
Such as lucid dreams and hypnotic spells

Displaced aggression, confused emotions
Inappropriate behavior, addictive devotions
All stem from unresolved issues of life so bitter
Stored in gray matter by chemical transmitters

But I have yet to mention the infamous soul
Which we place our hope in as our bodies grow old
A ghost that exists beyond that which can be measured
And holds the mysteries of life's greatest  treasures...

May clouds of uncertainty be swept away
And the rainbow's end cast upon your day
May bright blue skies and deep blue seas
Be the only blues you feel and see
The seeds of love that exist within
May they grow to heaven and back again
And here and now may joy and grace
Paint a smile upon your pretty face...
To my good friend Ayesha!

I wish you were mine
Captured in time
Fast asleep forevermore
Gathering stars
From worlds afar
Teaching us well
What love is for...

Two dreamers dreaming
When two worlds collides
Yet who shall stray
To the other side...
Where sunshine
Shines strange
Familiarity changes
On unknown waves
Yet still we ride...
