Just

Heard the calling, got the hell out
Now I’m tired of treading water
I’ve been dead set on these big dreams
and I’m plotting all my surefire schemes

you tell me, “you’re far too old
to stand on a glass earth throwing stones
put all of your faith in hope”
I’ve drained my soul to keep me just

Hanging on, to keep me hanging on
To keep me just…

I’ve been falling through thedream mine
And I’m hoping at the bottom
All the mountains of coins I’ve thrown
Have bought the wish I cast them for

And it won’t be a reap-less sow
Don’t tell me, “this garden won’t grow hope,
you’ll bear only rose-less thorns”
enough’s been born to keep me just

Hanging on, to keep me hanging on
To keep me just…

Don’t fail me you’re all I know
Don’t leave me desperate and aloneWhen all other light is gone
A single spark is all I need

To keep whole the earth below
To dig down for life beneath the snow
To carry, to carry on, to carry on,
to keep me just…

Hanging on, to keep me hanging on
To keep me just…

Quit or Run

‘This ain’t the life I’d planned
Man I sank so quickly
I’m drowning on dry land’

Shut your mouth,
You haven’t drowned,
You’re only 3 feetunder ground
You’re giving up before
The Reaper’s at your door

Push to shove,
You’re just a chump
You’re standing Cliffside scared to jump
Bound for ground we’re all
So leap, enjoy the fall

It’s a lonely road I know
And nothing ever stands between a bullet and your soul
It’d be easier to just succumb
The race is on, but you’re still waiting for the gun
So either quit or runParalyzed
The venom is seeping,
Hope is fleeting from your eyes
Carrion before your time

You’re atrophied from apathy
You’ve been too long off your feet
You dreamed of sanctity
But everything’s gone wrong

It’s a lonely road I know
And nothing ever stands between a bullet and your soul
It’d be easier to just succumb
The race is on, but you’re still waiting for the gun
So either quitor run

You’ve got the world to own
All you could ever hope
Just tell me you’re still able enough
There ain’t another way
You either run or stay
Tell me the will still remains

It’s a lonely road I know
And nothing ever stands
Between a bullet and your soul
It’d be easier to just succumb
The race is on but you’re still waiting for the gun
So either quit or run

Higher

"Openwide, and stay open wide
it’s a blue-streak, life
but live as if you’ll never die"

And whether wrong or right
It’s an axiom I can’t deny
And I’m beginning to like
The thrill and perils of learning to fly

Some moments are over way too fast,
and I get swept away with them every time
I close my eyes and I get,

Higher and higher
to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higherHigher and higher
to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher

Morning light
Hits like a dagger in a waking eye
But at least I’m alive,
With her asleep at my side

Then she smiles and sighs,
And I’m swimming in her opening eyes,
It’s a rising tide that I’m content to drown in
To drown inside

These moments are over way too fast,
and I get swept away with them every time,I close my eyes and I get

Higher and higher to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher
Higher and higher to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher

I wanna be far away and long beyond the apogee
I wanna feel air without the hindrance of gravity
I want me to stall, and be out of control
I’m fearless to fall, cause I know it won’t be long
before I’m thrown

Higher andhigher

And love, love is a catapult
Your love, your love is a catapult
Your love, your love is
Higher and higher
Till I fade away

The Beginning

There’s something wrong with me today
It’s like the world, like the world is getting smaller like the walls are closing in
I do my best to break away
change the subject to the better times we’ve had
Everyday I’m thinking to...
