The Angel 04:50
The Angel My eyes are closed, my face is white Thought that this might be the end But I'm only half way through the lie Cause there's still more truth to bend Backwards to fit my needs It's left up to me again If I am s'posed to make things right I'll have to make more than I spend Cause if I fell today there won't be a tomorrow to begin again A loving embrace A smile on their face And a prayer as I am on my way Inside these lies I'm dressed up in Crying eyes confess the sin All the truth I had my faith in It's turned me in But I know one thing... Angels may fly, devils may burn But I just sit alone and wait my return Look to the sky asking you why Must I remain inside, locked away Much smarter than you all realize An introvert externalized

Go Away 03:34
Go Away Apologies won't say that I'm sorry On my knees from the weight of this worry I said I'm sorry and I hope It's in your heart to let this go If it is please let me know And if it's not I'll go Away (On and on I'll go) This day Now it's up to me to find my way home Where it is tomorrow I may not know Committing crimes and I can only hope That you've got the heart to spare death tolls Enisled at sea, no longer in tow And I know that I must go Away (On and on I'll go) Who am I to leave behind the mess I left? You are the same You have not changed...

Don't 04:12
Don't Face down in a gutter Well it's ok, cause I have my dreams Got my own ideas and lies Guess I don't mind if you tell me otherwise Be my friend or my enemy Either way I'm pleased You say 'do this', what I should try to be But which one of us here is me? I've got my ears and eyes So I think that I'll get by If you drown it out, you can make em see You can show em how, you can make them beleive Let your demon out, set em free Just open the door and swallow the key I've got this thing I ,like to call home Seems to be wherever I go Anywhere I want to end up Just don't bother me about it My throat hurts but come the pleasure or pain Well, you know what they say So no more hand me down advice Just go home and let me late my night I'll lay it out, and make a scene Cause I know what I'm doing don't talk down to me Go ahead, tell me I won't last whil;e I light up the next one with my last If I block them out, they'll let me be But is it me or them that I'm setting free?

Smile 03:17
Smile I wash my hands of this and throw my towel in Though I wasn't the dirty rat if there was a first place to be in I remember the hard times cause they weren't fun times nonetheless our times But I just want to get it back You lying sack You're words don't weigh to much, but you got a lot to say I never heard someone talk so much with so little to say Both my feet on the ground, you wait for the other shoe to drop But I just want to get it back You know what I'm talking about You should just turn back Don't you know you're out? I thank you execution style Now take your exit and we'll call it a day Keep your distance from me I don't want to get it back You can just take it back But I hope that you know you're out And I dare you to try to come back
5.
The Stone 02:33
The Stone Pretty soon you won't have a team to take one for It isn't my place to tell you, but I'm gonna tell you That the world was turning long before you got here I speculate it'll keep going when we die You need something to beleive? Just beleive in you. That's what you're fighting for Do you need anyhting more? You're all self inflicted and that's a victim no one likes Play like you're an underdog when all you know how to do is bite Such a short time to live, there's no time to kill Scraping to the top of an anthill Short time to live, there's not timeto kill throwing stones at the top of the anthill

Monetareality Hold on, I need some more from you Don't put your patience away, I'm gonna need some of yours But All of this complaining, I'm a laymen, I'm not a criminal Come on you can do Just one more thing for me Sorry but today I won't have your money C'mon All of this complaining, I'm a laymen, I'm not a criminal All of this complaining, we're the same and I'm looking out for you So you don't need my money to complete the deal we got going Don't wake me don't stir me don't want monetareality in me All these broken promises, please don't take offense Let's plan for today I've got some time to kill
7.
Real Trouble 04:13
Real Trouble Try to think of what to say, as I turn myself away form this trouble How much I gotta pay to get myself away from this trouble? Cause I didn't want you to find out this way. We're in trouble really big trouble It was only yesterday, and I felt so far away from my troubles And I had a place to stay and my home was not reduced to rubble And I can't live like this forever I'm in trouble Really big trouble I can't keep living like this, it's to much for my health now I can't keep living down here life's feeling like a cel

Pyrodise 02:58
Pyrodise I hear about a lot of people getting shot in this place Where saving grace is saving face to get you through the days Don't catch fire, everybody's flammable Moods: kerosene. Actions: matches. That's how the fire starts Born like twins Matchstick mess (Mother nature gives birth to brother mature and sister even more But they ain't around so, just enjoy the embers on me) Gonna burn your hand a lot cause it's always hot in here But you'll always put it back to keep your foot inside the door here You'll never steer clear Pyrodise I burned my hand, put it back again
9.
Homeless 03:18
Homeless I though you had, you told me time and time again we got a good thing going I didn't know, little did I know you really had me going Now you're down on your knees and nobody's there to help you so you're coming back Coming to me? Guess you've got no home to foster you cause I'm the last You'd ever see If home is where the heart is, then you must be homeless And being here at long last at the end of the line I'm seeing clearer in hindsight What I told myself so long ago Just without me knowing You never really wanted me around You never really wanted me there
10.
Wings & Prayers He dies, you cry and capitalize in the side Robbing your friends’ wife In to much pain to be thinking twice Voices in the house and mystic numbers that you’re lying about Where’s your head? Where you been? For eighteen years you were out and about And as the apple fell, so far from the tree, into a whole it fell Swallowed down six feet Gritting, those teeth ain’t too far below the surface of your smile I claim you, morally, as my moral enemy All these wings and prayers won’t get you anywhere You won’t be seeing him again far as I can see

Clocks 04:42
Clocks Done giving credit to the credible Done eating what's not edible Done paying my oaths to those whom I don't owe Everything is not what it appears to be, that's why appearances aren't everything Might see it if you wake up, but you only rise and shine When you see and opportunity Something that puts you at ease Maybe I could put you at ease, with some kind of sympathy You only rise and shine to the world when it's out to get you This is why if you die, the same world will forget you I have seen it so many times That’s right I used to love it and be the same way Feels like all debts are indelible You’re conscientious but it’s still forgettable The skin of your green back You can shed it all A little sympathy Shed it all They’re gonna take it away Gotta get your head from the clouds and the thought of the winter Take flight as a winner In the fight for your life Or they’re gonna take it away Times ticking and taking away as it’s tolling Taking away the time Ticking so fast but I’m Deciphering the problem Probably some sort of Sensitivity
