So hello my shadow, it's been a while I have sat and pondered quite a while There are things in this world I've never seen Yet It's all become so clear to me There is romance in a hurricane All these fights they end up just the same and there's darkness in the comforting of an aging elder smoldering I have watched the world from darkened depths seen these self-fulfilling punishments And it just seems so so strange to me People taking things so seriously There is beauty inside every split second of this dreary cosmic trip yet theres people yelling in the streets people who see straight through you and me

Pegasus 05:13
There's a shadow in the foyer, Vanishing faster than you can see He's so glad he got to know me, just a reflection of empathy There's an internal affliction, burning and burning inside the sea Waves are crashing and reacting, God has returned to fulfill his needs You will never see another, I am only in your mind Though I am a spitting image, I am only in your mind Prayer flags and tuning forks are forming the border to overseas There's a man inside the building, roaming and doing whatever he please You appear to me in darkness, is it real life or is it just a dream? Why do dreams become so crucial when fear shields you from everything? You will never see another, I am only in your mind Though I am a spitting image, I am only in your mind You will never see another, I am only in your mind Though I am a spitting image, I am only in your mind In your mind Cobwebs are forming Mandalas, inside the ruins of your consciousness Seeing things you know are karma, feeling the burning inside your chest Walk with me I'll show you magic, probably crazy but I'll try my best Come with me to dear Nirvana, leaving behind the forsaken rest You will never see another, I am only in your mind Though I am a spitting image, I am only in your mind You will never see another, I am only in your mind Though I am a spitting image, I am only in your mind Laying low, internal glow, and nothing seems to turn out right Pegasus, does goes exist, well he is only in your mind Laying low, internal glow, and nothing seems to turn out right Pegasus, my nemesis, well you are only in my mind

Silent Voice 04:52
Scared of an overstep, you're the product of your broken neck, Find your voice And the stars, and the sky, and the tears that are in your eyes, They will flow all away, and come back again someday And in time you will say the things that you're afraid to say There are stars in the sky and I see them in your eyes, Now the worlds turning gray, and right now I have to stay, But in time I will say the things that I'm afraid to say Planning your every step, you're the shepherd of your intellect Make your choice Growing things inside your mind, never took you for the mysterious kind, Silent voice And the stars, and the sky, and the tears that are in your eyes, They will flow all away, and come back again someday And in time you will say the things that you're afraid to say There are stars in the sky and I see them in your eyes, Now the worlds turning gray, and right now I have to stay, But in time I will say the things that I'm afraid to say And the stars, and the sky, and the tears that are in your eyes, They will flow all away, and come back again someday And in time you will say the things that you're afraid to say There are stars in the sky and I see them in your eyes, Now the worlds turning gray, and right now I have to stay, But in time I will say the things that I'm afraid to say

I ran away, I was impulsive and wanted to change Don't look away, when the light is so bright you can not stay Weather it will change, clouds are not always a sign of bad days Everything is strange, make the most, play the host of your own stage There is a message hidden in the stars tonight That everything is anything but black and white There is a voice echoing from a satellite Lower your swords and shields and try to reignite All the world is Gray, in the end we are all subject to change Every days the same, when you live hiding inside of your maze Tell me you're okay, I have been watching and I know your ways Everyones the same, in the sense that we are subject to change I left my throne to compromise within I have become the shadow of the wind I wander on, and I have grown so thin I have become the shadow of the wind I wander on, and I have grown so thin I have become the shadow of the wind There is a message hidden in the stars tonight That everything is anything but black and white There is a voice echoing from a satellite Lower your swords and shields and try to reignite

I'm so scared to play with broken strings Yet I must witness everything The truth has wandered centuries Yet we still see it on the screen Your mind is free inside a dream While my emotions start to sing The colors showing in the light Are slowly resting by your side So if you reach the mountains peak Will you there find just what you seek? The sun is barely out of reach He sees the secrets that you keep The threads unravel in a line There is no power quite like time The world melts gray and stays behind Someday we'll see you in the sky Offering another harmony Using everything inside of me Nowhere left to go and take it back In the end the stars are always sad Singing something for the older time Everything is dark, I'm going blind Let it wash away into the sea Time to find out what became of me

Oppenheimer 06:31
Curiosity, the light you've shown to me Shadows in my dreams, become reality Aching in my heart, now you seem so far Colors will explode, Winter's getting old Left you all alone, pulled this sword from stone Please forgive my mind, I don't think all the time And Oppenheimer weeps tonight, His dreams are falling from the sky, To bid farewell to every light, To kiss your lips again, goodnight And Oppenheimer weeps tonight, His dreams are falling from the sky, To bid farewell to every light, To kiss your lips again, goodnight

Falling Down 03:17
I live inside a painting by a poor victorian artist My memories are fading, the bridge connecting you to me is Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down There's art inside the junk yard, places are more than just a name There's time behind creation, otherwise it just would sound the same The moon is in the night sky reminding me that I'm stuck onto the ground I'm in a world of monsters, now it's time to make that sacred sound Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down

Rising ceilings, sinking feelings, things you hide in the night And you seem so far away, and you seem so far away, I am screaming in the daylight, come what may Sharpening the tools you use to see inside my mind confused, And I'll live to see the day, and I'll live to see the day, even if in disarray I'll sing my praise to you Waiting is the role I've taken, shutting off my heart somehow Things will never be the same, things will never be the same, I'm the shadow of a lion tamer howling out, Disproportionately figured, misprint from the early days, And I sold it all away, And I sold it all away, I'm the shadow of the mountain in the month of May for you So I etch my name into the bark along your branches, The leaves will whisper in the breeze as you come crashing down, You were once particularly gorgeous by the window, But times are changing, escalating, now you'll be a widow

Nor'easter 04:11
Somewhere not too far away there's an overwhelming shade of gray, I am watching over older days, while I'm trapped inside this lonely cage What have I done with my time, there has been no reason and no rhyme I will face my fate with everyone, is this story ending or beginning? I would live this life again if it were plausible, I would change the words I said but it's impossible Never think of all these things 'til it's in front of you I will think of you, I think you'll think about me too And so vessel sailing off into the sea, are you really here with me? And so sparrow sailing off along the breeze, see the world inside your dreams And so vessel sailing off into the sea, are you really here with me? And so sparrow sailing off along the breeze, see the world inside your dreams

Purple Veins 04:04
Dreaming again, so I'm existing again within my head Things will be ugly but then things will be beautiful, he said Summer is ending and my hair it is thinning, I'm mislead I believe in the rain because it stifles the pain, or so he said Dream with your eyes closed and see with your mind open and think with your scars closed your purple veins are glowing and think of the last time you thought of the last time you thought of the good times the good times don't ever die if you dream Dream with your eyes closed and see with your mind open and think with your scars closed your purple veins are glowing and think of the last time you thought of the last time you thought of the good times the good times don't ever die if you dream
