:::::LYRICS:::::


DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH

don't hold your breath in sigh
for you cant say that we didn't try
with throats all clenched and teeth are dry
from feeding on sweet lies

with fleeting feelings in the home
the doors unlock and shake your bones
you made this choice and now it shows
that you are alone

open your mind become aware
of loving hearts with hands that care
don't cast aside their wants their dreams
for you maybe tied tighter to them then you think

no it's never what it seems
no it's never what it seems
your coming apart at the seems
for holding too tight to the dream
don't hold your breath

GIVE IN AND GET HYPNOTIZED

it's a tall tale world we live in
who can believe their eyes
freedom is sold neath the surface
but don't you buy into that lie    (i'll tell ya why)

cause we live off hope and promise
someday i'll get a slice of that pie
promise you'll never leave me
but none is certain for those who seek new highs

magic these days is flowin
in and in front of our eyes
but don't you look too hard you'll never find it
but someday you might realize

cause in this tall tale world we've been givin
it's the perfect time to be alive
replace your worry with wonder
give in and get hypnotized

DIRTY LOOKS

see the violence in the sky
i hope your dirty looks match mine
ain't no time to compensate
only time that i waste

see the violence in my eyes
hope your dirty looks heal mine
all the time that i waste
i look to you to compensate

SING THE SICKNESS AWAY

sing all the sickness of mind
observe all the changes of time
and feel the pull
of incessant rhyme
and sing all the sickness of mine

HOME

who would believe all that you see
what your blinded by wants and necessity
but oh, oh, oh, you need to welcome all change
but its never enough to satisfy the

so cast aside all your fantasies
for you'll never find what it is you think you need
when you are looking for just one thing
know that what you have is all you'll ever NEED

so give me hope
give me hope
i have no home
i have no home
i have no hope

HEAVEN IN MY HEAD

if i made it into heaven would you even care
to find me there in the air
so leave your world behind you all your despair
all your wants and needs come with me

but if the angle's wings are broken would you even care
would you still believe would you want to go there
so leave your world behind you all your despair
all your wants and needs come with me

LEAVE YOUR HOME TOWN

to the restlessness of our youth
to those who are bored or severely confused
don't let bother breath that weight off your mind
for soon  
soon you will re-align

summer brings the warmth of ideas that all will fall down
followed by winter freeze that dream to the ground
thaw will come as the earth spins round
and grows
back up before pulled down

believe in yourself and you may get far
leave your hometown to the nearest star in view
anything you think you can do
so tell me what
what is really stopping you

stooping you
you

YOU WAIT IN LINE

who really gets what they want
you wait in line
never ever get what you want
you wait in
stare of into fucking space
you wait in line

LET NOTHING STAND IN THE WAY

nothing will stand in the way
a lovers rage or the morning sun rays

a heart will be broken along the way
