Eight Hundred days til the end of the world
Eight Hundred days spent wasted
Dreaming of the end of time
I try to find
A reason any of this makes any sense
Eight Hundred ways I tried to turn around
Eight Hundred lifetimes tracing
My path til the end of time
I try to find
The season when I find any peace
Eight Hundred days spent grey
Eight Hundred days spent grey
Eight Hundred days spent grey

So Different

Staring at the faces in the fire
A world away from living as a ghost
The answers come to me in a state of grace
The world knows where I go to find some peace
All the things I need seem so different to me
Listening to dreams gone in the aether
A void inside refusing to ever fill
The words come to me in a flash of noise
And I know where love goes to stand up tall
All the love I bleed seems so different
To me it all becomes so clear
A heart with nothin to fear
All the world around, all the world around
The love finds its way into my world
And I know where I go to find my way
Everything I see seems so different to me

I feel it running through my soul
It feels like a dream come true
I'm trying to see the beauty in this world
I know it's all that I can do
To let myself be happy
The wild hidden in my heart takes me for a ride
The child waiting in my soul makes me feel alive
I try to smile at the sun
Blue skies take my breath away
I'm trying to fin a way to save my life
I know it's all that I can do
To let myself be happy
The wild hidden in my heart takes me for a ride
The child waiting in my soul makes me feel alive
All these days pass by my eyes
A world turns away, in my mind
Uncharted
The wild hidden in my heart takes me for a ride
The child waiting in my soul makes me feel alive
All these days pass by my eyes
A world turns away, in my mind
Uncharted

I've Seen It All Before
04:29
|

|
Take my place in this weary world
Disconnected with a broken soul
A smiling face disembodied
Taunt me some more
Put me in my place, and wear me down
Fitting in the pieces, taken for granted
Lost in a world with a lonely name
Entitled to nothing but shame
A gilded cage taken for granted
A foul, foul word
Put me in my place, and wear me down
Fitting in the pieces, taken for granted
I've seen it all before

Winged Life
03:40
|
|||
|
I won't run away from the pouring rain
I just wanna say, I won't feel twisted
When I find a life that washes away
All those worried fears
I never saw the day when I could sleep away
I found a silver lining, I won't miss the pain
When the leaves turn back to green
And I can catch a glimpse
I smile sure of the life under water
I cross a river too deep
I kiss the signs like a lamb to the slaughter
A secret never meant to keep
It all floats on by
It all floats on by
This winged life never has to cry
It all floats on by
I found a silver lining
I won't miss the pain

Restless Dreams

|

|
All I want to be is warm inside
I just want to love and never hide
The cold wind blows on me
But I can still believe
Once I woke to the sound of rain
But one day I will wake up
One day I will wake up
Anyone can see when the sun shines on me
That all that I believe is up to me
A warm breeze flows through me
And I can still believe
Once I dreamed that I was safe
But one day I will wake up
One day I will wake up
And see that sun, shining down on me
And find all the love waiting here for me
And no more restless dreams
