The Seven Seas

when you sailed the seven seas did you stop to think of me and what i believed?
when i sang my freedom song i wasnt singing for too long.
i believed that you you could take the future back from me.
so what does freedom mean?
if they moved hollywood to space would our lifestyles be disgraced by how much we take?
innocence and losing soul. who gave us stupid ones control? i dont know.
but i believe we take away the future from those who dream and keep them on their knees

Fake This Life
02:45

I want to break out, out of all the walls of this small room
I want to take out my girlfriend to the high school prom, its true
I want to 'make out' like all the kids in all the movies do
I want to fake this life with you until it breaks you
I want to talk like an adult when I'm only 17
I want to walk like I'm nice but when its called for I'll be mean
I want to wake up and never have to feel like a machine
I want to fake this life with you until it breaks you
I can't see nobody here but you
I cant feel nobody here, it's true

Passing Stations

lyrics:
this train is passing stations
whens it gonna stop
cos i want to get off
all my passed relations
are scrambling to the top
only to get knocked off
can we find another way to conceal abuse
are we on forever
through buildings and through crops
to learn what we forgot
can we find another way to conceal abuse
how're we gonna learn our lines
theres no-one there with cues

|
easy come and easy go
waking up with a friend or foe
on your shoulder, you dont know
today is a beautiful day
but tomorrow doesnt feel the same
same method with a different pain
dead memories are waiting here to trip you up, its true
if you want them to
change the memories in your mind
but you still cant make it right
when events are so unkind

Silence Has Never Been
02:33
|
|||
|
silence has never been so deafening to me
with all this silence my feelings roam around free
they tangle through every corner of me til i cant see the man i used to be
feelings wont let my thoughts process through this pain
they leave me behind saying i have gone insane
attacking the front and the backside of my brain
now the life i love is not the same
all this silence
and all i do is sit here and pretend
i just cannot sit here and pretend

Spinning Coin
02:28
|
|||
|
can you feel the pressure?
its making you feel wrong
its pounding you forever,
if you let it linger on
can you hear them marching?
theyre calling you to join
and if you keep ignoring,
your lifes a spinning coin
have you read the papers?
where do we begin?
if youre acting different,
theyll tell you its a sin
why do we wake up early,
just to face the day,
and fill it up with boredom
all work and never play
