Take Over 04:14
Underground Waiting for a sound Air raid siren guns start firing And I can't escape This new world order Only a matter of time before they Take over Our lives are theirs to have Take over If we don't fight we lose the night Take over What can we give when they want more Take over Our brothers' blood is on the floor And war is here It's all around Air raid siren guns start firing And this new world order This contained disorder Only a matter of time before they Take over Our lives are theirs to have Take over If we don't fight we lose the night Take over What can we give when they want more Take over Our brothers' blood is on the floor

They said he was put together Said he was built to last They said he was beautiful But he was a crack of blue glass In minds he walked for days Leaving memories that never fade. Still not everyone remembers The boy made of blue glass And time forgets those Who don't make their mark But he left his He left it in a tiny spark We all drop slowly And some fade with grace But memories linger About the broken blue glass face Blue glass boy We'll never see what he's done And all we can see Is the truth we're running from The fear grows inside Like spiders in the dark Reaching up to grab you No matter where you hide You cycle between poles At the flick of a switch There is no middle ground Just a blue glass itch Blue glass boy Won't ever see the day But sometimes we wake up Wishing the sun would fade And you could never grow And you could never age We all grew through you In different ways So as the sun sinks Beyond the grass We were proud to know you The blue boy made of glass

When the war is finally over I will lay it down across your shoulder We'll scale that hill and jump the boulder And plant that flag in it's rightful holder Freedom will overcome us We'll scream and holler to the skies above 'Cause we're not held down to the flag that owns us We've planted in there and stay there it must And my dreams did not consist of being this Playing futile wars for such a futile cause I never thought I'd have to come to living this Death and guilt on my hands Lost in the middle of no man's land I remember in the stormy weather The wait would feel like we were in it forever With old steel hats and the straps of leather I couldn't help feeling we were all together The time would come when the crash and thunder Of god know what drives us to trouble and blunder As we go up go up and over Who's left to survive we're left to wonder And my dreams did not consist of being this Playing futile wars for such a futile cause I never thought I'd have to come to living this Death and guilt on my hands Lost in the middle of no man's land And the time will come and we'll know it well yeah we'll know it well The crash of the drums will follow us to the top of this hill Raise it up for the world can see and signify it's over When we've all just wasted our lives following a flag into war And my dreams did not consist of being this Playing futile wars for such a futile cause I never thought I'd have to come to living this Death and guilt on my hands Lost in the middle of no man's land And my dreams did not consist of being this Playing futile wars for such a futile cause I never thought I'd have to come to living this Death and guilt on my hands Lost in the middle of no man's land

There's radio silence From your side of the street The rain drowns me out And I just can't compete The mist rolls in Descending over me Trapped in clouds Why can't I be She makes me feel like the summer sun through the clouds I'm a monsoon when you're not around And I'm dry like a heat wave in Nevada Cause she she controls the weather And I'm cold from the snow in your heart And I'm blind the fog covers my eyes A tidal wave of pain crashes over me Cause she She controls the weather And when you talk It's like drowning in the sea I wanna come for air But you just won't let me And when you sing They clouds they run away The sun comes through And everything is She makes me feel like the summer sun through the clouds I'm a monsoon when you're not around And I'm dry like a heat wave in Nevada Cause she she controls the weather And I'm cold from the snow in your heart And I'm blind the fog covers my eyes A tidal wave of pain crashes over me Cause she She controls the weather And your spell on me And your rain dance voodoo Won't leave me be But I don't need you Your cage of clouds They can't contain me I'm breaking out And finally I'm free

Times are hard for the working jack Got a heavy axe but no wood in my sack Walks alone through the moonlit wood Tired of work because of the iron in his blood Cause he’s a lumberjack He breaks a sweat on his brow feels the sun on his back Into the black Fire burns away everyday There’s nothing more to say He’s the lumberjack Taste of ash and the clash of steel Working hard to keep on turning the wheel as the iron soars Axe and timber go to war Cause he’s a lumberjack He breaks a sweat on his brow feels the sun on his back Into the black Fire burns away everyday There’s nothing more to say He’s the lumberjack Cause he’s a lumberjack He breaks a sweat on his brow feels the sun on his back Into the black Fire burns away everyday There’s nothing more to say He’s the lumberjack

Hurricanes 03:17
I'm searching for the truth that's in my head Crawling on the cracked floor All my skin shed I wish I could see you through the haze This broken dream becomes a twisted maze You don't know what's coming for you You can't see what's really true Now I'm looking for the spirit that frees But all I can see is hurricanes and trees I'm for the lightening in the sky The rain's pouring down but all the rivers are dry I can see you on the horizon Pull the trigger and your world caves in You don't know what's coming for you You can't see what's really true Now I'm looking for the spirit that frees But all I can see is hurricanes and trees Silence fills this empty space All that's left are shadows of your face Hurricanes whip my tired mind And when the light goes I'm blind
