Blood on my hands, but I get my way Trouble in my soul, gotta get away Hold my own through my hands, grown through my way Sold in my way, gold in my hands Tried to get whole, but it’s not the same Tried to get whole, but I get in my way Hold my own through my hands, grown through my way Sold in my way, gold in my hands Trouble in mind, troubled in soul Hold my hand, hold my hand Fly away, fly away It’s alright it’s alright it’s alright it’s alright it’s alright it’s alright it’s alright Trouble in mind, troubled in soul Hold my hand, hold my hand Fly away, fly away

well, my feet are on the ground but my mind is spinning round when the waves come crashing down and my heart begins to pound and I’m face down in the water well the sweat runs down my nose and the fear begins to show when there’s no help to be be found and my voice begins to drown and I’m face down in water well, I know it yes, I know it well, I know it well, I’ve got chills down to the bone I’ve lost sight of all that’s known mind is filled with thoughts of home I lay stranded here alone and I’m face down in the water well, I know it well, I know it well, I know it and I’m face down in water

I smell the smoke, it's all around I cannot see what's going down I've hid my soul, it can't be found you know this house, it's burning down time's just an illusion it will take your breath away so I lie in wait, though my soul will lay to waste this old house, it's burning down just yesterday, I thought I heard the sound of joy in my own words, but joy was not the sound it was this house, it's burning down time's just an illusion it will take your breath away so I lie in wait, though my soul will lay to waste this old house, it's burning down burning down, burning down

Alone 03:27
I know some day, it won't be long here today, tomorrow gone gone away, leaving me lonely feeling so alone alone am I to blame? I wanna know I hear the chains calling my soul nothing will change, no one to hold me feeling so alone alone

when I'm in and out of phase and my mind is in daze she calls out in the haze and her voice shines through always she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name though I left the pain behind still it lingers in my mind she knows just what to say her words come down like rain she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name well I'll never let her go but all things must pass, I know though I know I'm not to blame all this time I feel the shame she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name she knows my name

Another Name 04:26
Another Name is it gone too far? has it gone too dark? can the truth be sought and lies be untaught? has it grown too old to be bought and sold? will the days gone by kill the urge to die? is the pain too strong to keep holding on? well it's so sad that you fell off by the way and it's so sad that you answered to the call of another name were you born to fail? were you made to rail on the same cursed side with no place hide from the twisted voice and confusing noise? aren't you sick and tired of the same old lies? can't you even try? why just lay there and die? well it's so sad that you fell off by the way and it's so sad that you answered to the call of another name well I’m going and I’m going well I’m going well I’m going well I’m going and it's so sad that you fell off by the way and it's so sad that you answered to the call of another name

Gone Away 04:44
all the words escape my mouth what more can be said? last night I dreamed a dream I woke up, now it's dead I've lost my head, I've lost my head many times we've said before we'll let time take its course but time won't bring a change you handed me to fate now it's too late, now it's too late all the hope is gone away all the hope is gone away all the hope is gone away all the hope is gone away it's much too late shall I sing the same old song of two lovers growing old that song is not for me my heart was turned stone now I'm alone, now I'm alone (all the love is gone away) (all the love is gone away) (all the love is gone away) (all the love is gone away) you were so cold, babe you were so cold, babe why you'd hurt me so bad no, I'll never understand why you done the things you done now it's all gone away

Street Dogs 02:54
I have no where to call my home these city streets are all I know the weak and broken fall and die the rest are trying to survive all by myself all by myself all by myself I’m lost to the music of my soul there is no place I’d rather roam I’ll live by my rules til I die my sleepless nights under the sky all by myself all by myself all by myself all by myself all by myself all by myself all by myself

Hey Girl 04:05
hey girl, why the frown? tell me, did he go and let you down? always around, but never thinking of you let me be your relief from your pain and all of your grief I'll lend you an ear, I'm here just to listen to you look around, don't you see? you have the world humbled at your feet you raised your hand and you caught a star now an angel's in the midst of your arms all your dreams are in your hands if you try, you know you can hey girl, what's my name? you know me, I'm always the same miles away, but always thinking of you if you call, I'm your man if you fall, I'll give you my hand you know these arms were made just to carry you look around, don't you see? you have the world humbled at your feet you raised your hand and you caught a star now an angel's in the midst of your arms all your dreams are in your hands if you try, you know you can hey girl, go and take it you know life's what you make it forget about what the whole world expects you to do time will tell what lies ahead your heart's wish remains unsaid still I can hear it when you're thinking of me look around, don't you see? you have the world humbled at your feet you raised your hand and you caught a star now an angel's in the midst of your arms all your dreams are in your hands if you try, you know you can

In The Tide 04:07
In The Tide there’s a stream that runs behind this lonely home of mine a voice that calls like summer breeze between the leaves in eventide the water’s still, but like the hill it flows from, it runs deep beneath the surface, where your purpose, and your secrets keep no revision can undo the hurt that you’ve been through but with time, I think you’ll find, you really always knew the luminescence that your evanescence cannot hide leave the cares and all the indecision to the tide take my hand in the tide I’ll show you lose yourself in the tide I’ll find you close your eyes in the tide you’ll find me hold on to the peace of mind that you find inaccessible to all who try and cannot find it’s a lonely life, but that’s just how it goes sometimes got no delusions or confusion, I’m just passing through you may ask why, but I can’t lie, it’s alI that I can do take my hand in the tide I’ll show you lose yourself in the tide I’ll find you close your eyes in the tide you’ll find me hold on to the peace of mind that you find well, there’s nothing more to do there’s nothing more to say if you don’t want to there’s nothing in your way if you want to go if you want to stay I know nothing lasts forever, but someday take my hand in the tide I’ll show you lose yourself in the tide I’ll find you close your eyes in the tide you’ll find me

Always 05:06
there's no reward, I know for pouring out your soul no fame to come your way for a love I can't convey no virtuous endeavors to compare with how I'd fall, and you were always there no matter how, you'd always find a way always, always, find a way never once thought twice you always sacrificed time and time again you've been my only friend I'd gain the world and throw it all away if it meant your kindness was repaid, you know I'll always love you, come what may always, always you know I will, always I know you've never let me down yeah, you've always been around, you saved me so many times you took the dark and made it shine how will you ever be repaid? for all you've done and all you gave
