A Standoff 04:52
I look into your eyes Your standoff eyes Don't turn the wrong way Your life forever changed A bullet flies through the wind you're living in fear Your brother dies that's a switch in gears Riding too fast then you're in the clear But when you run the side it doesn't end in tears A bullet flies through the wind you're living in fear Your brother dies that's a switch in gears Riding too fast then you're in the clear But when you run the side it doesn't end in tears Im gonna run the side, run the side and no ones coming for my cry Im gonna run the side, run the side And wake up with my tour guide I move with the tide, with the tide Next day no one sees me alive Im gonna sleep tonight, sleep tonight And wake up with you by my side The white noise of the city flies by your mind Treats the aspirations of your life unkind The red eye becomes brighter everyday It turns the light into an overcast grey The white noise of the city flies by your mind Treats the aspirations of your life unkind The red eye becomes brighter everyday It turns the light into an overcast grey Im gonna run the side, run the side and no ones coming for my cry Im gonna run the side, run the side And wake up with my tour guide I move with the tide, with the tide Next day no one sees me alive Im gonna sleep tonight, sleep tonight And wake up with you by my side

I Can't See 03:06
My room has become a dark place I cannot stay Stuck with my brain I just sit here overthinking Your sends are torturous when can I get a break But I still love you, come on I still love you I can't see my vision's gone I can't see but my vision is on I can't see my vision's gone I can't see my vision's gone Uphill I can't see my vision's gone I can't see but my vision is on I can't see my vision's gone I can't see my vision's gone Uphill I will Keep it Your share Homesick A tear within your life deal with it I Can't See I Don't Lie A Slit in the Eye I Don't Cry

Red Eye 10:42
Never coming down Never coming down Never coming down Never coming down Eyes going red Eyes going red Eyes going red Eyes going red Mind is shaking Fog surrounds me Inertia from my brain I cannot stand this god damn plane yeah All over the rain Above the rain, Red Eye, pain Mind is shaking Take me in your army Ascending, ears bleed Please end this, here we Go down, retreat Fog no longer surrounds me Descending, ears bleed In and out, landing Eight hours till I return Coming down Please don't leave me concerned I shut down Can't ever keep my word Down below Please don't keep me under My last blow It's been eight months since I was removed and I still wonder if you approve of what I do It's been eight months since I was removed and I still wonder if you approve of what I do Well I played a song for you, that's not something that I do oh well Well I played a song for you, that's not something that I do oh well Well I played a song for you, that's not something that I do oh well Eight hours till I return Can't ever keep my word Well I fell into a deep sleep, many colors in my eyes She's destroying my body, and in my head, I lied and I know, it'll all be grounded soon and now, I'll be in my head by noon

Yellow Light 05:00
You've gotta make a quick decision Using all five senses I'm digging too, deep in this hole Can't give myself some time to unfold I know what you're feeling See what you're stealing My friends are leaving Thats unappealing Will I sleep tonight If I got my mood right Wish I was still ten Where were we again? Keep by my side I don't want you to leave by five Around the fire I want you there At a yellow light I lose my care It's all feeling fake It doesn't feel fair Speeding like a voyager Faced back to back Shooting up a prayer Sleeping after it moves through the air I know what you're feeling See what you're stealing My friends are leaving Thats unappealing Will I sleep tonight If I got my mood right Wish I was still ten Where were we again? Keep by my side I don't want you to leave by five Around the fire I want you there At a yellow light I lose my care

Infiltrator 04:07
They don't stop I cannot Resist the noise they brought There's one girl Who just screams Don't care for the movies I Infil-You traitor This dancing is too much I am the Invader Burn down the house you love I stand here Waiting for All of the noise to stop I come home Overthrown Live with this I cannot I Infil-You traitor This dancing is too much I am the Invader Burn down the house you love They don't stop I cannot Resist the noise they brought There's one girl Who just screams Don't care for the movies Don't care for the movies Don't care for the movies Don't care for the movies Don't care for the movies I Infil-You traitor This dancing is too much I am the Invader Burn down the house you love I Infil-You traitor This dancing is too much I am the Invader Burn down the house you love

Raindrops 05:41
It's a mess Don't say the rest Array of drops Falling Can't Stop The opposite of who I want to be Eternal address doesn't seem fit for me Here on my desk people will stare at me Scan my face, do I look happy? Play mind chess The rain will pour It's all nothing nonetheless Re-possess Decay Heart-Press Relay of drops falling Rebuild what we had There I go Here on my desk people will stare at me Scan my face, do I look happy? The opposite of who I want to be Eternal address doesn't seem fit for me Here with the rest locked in an endless sea Scan my face, do I look happy? (It's a mess) (Don't say the rest) (Array of drops) (Falling) (Can't Stop) (What we had) (There I go) Be alone to see your backbone Overthrown, I feel so prone My earphones can't fix this one Weep to the free zone where I don't feel

I know you guys were waiting I know you guys were waiting cause the world stops when I am gone The world stops when I am gone Don't leave me alone shaking Don't leave me alone shaking I need the world stopped when I am gone The world stopped when I am gone because I'm coming Coming Well I'm coming Coming You're telling people you got working on something Then you take to long, results to nothing Delay after delay, you're waiting forever You make a big promise and you fail your endeavor The big city lights are telling you never You sit at home thinking you're so clever They said "come to brazil" You think you're better than them in Brazil? You think you're better? Well Im coming. Coming Well Im Coming Coming Im telling you man the factory is productive The twenty-something men might find themselves loving All the things we do Our egos are burning All the things we do My stomach is churning Well you are a pressure that I am holding You are the cure to all the molding All the things we brew I swear it is working And when it pulls through I swear to you It's in the works It's in the motions It's in the works It's in motions It's in the works It's in the motions It's in the works It's in motions I swear to you It works [this happens a lot of times] I swear to you it turns throughout the ocean the way it burns down In my stomach It's in the works It's in the motions It's in the works It's in motions I swear to you It turns [also happens a lot of times] I know you guys were waiting I know you guys were waiting cause the world stops when I am gone The world stops when I am gone Don't leave me alone shaking Don't leave me alone shaking I need the world stopped when I am gone The world stops when I am gone
