We have come to see The lies, we face, the truth, we lost, it all, in chains we trust Close your eyes, now carry on As if you never even noticed If we choose to use our voices The words would be consumed in silence We're lost within the crowd We're blending in now We're searching for a reason While forgetful of our freedom Come one, Come all, to see, us fall, below the crashing walls (Repeat Chorus) We're searching for a reason While forgetful of our freedom We seek the truth They hide the lies Bleed us dry Take your time We're reaching for our freedom We're remembering the reason Why? In chains we trust

(Verse) These moments pass us by Not knowing the patterns of your life Disguising everything you are Predictions of where we go from here (Chorus) This memory, Instilled in me Reminds me how to be a better man This energy escaping me I'll just have to do the best I can (Verse) The story following me These pages like photos in my mind Failing, learning how to try Prevailing in the worst of times (Chorus) This memory, Instilled in me Reminds me how to be a better man This energy escaping me I'll just have to do the best I can (Bridge) I know you, would want me To do what makes me feel alive I feel you, beside me You've influenced me to strive I can't be just like you But I'll try to get it right You know I revere you And your memory remains As a still frame (Chorus) This memory, Instilled in me Reminds me how to be a better man This energy escaping me I'll just have to do the best I can

Shove me away Such a waste You over complicate everything The burden and the weight overtake me I'm letting go now, the only choice there is to choose You're bringing me down, it's so hard to face the truth Accepting the bruise Running in place I can't escape You over complicate everything The burden and the weight overtake me I'm letting go now, the only choice there is to choose You're bringing me down, it's so hard to face the truth We search to find We fall behind We've found light But dark ensues Where do you want to be When it all comes crashing down? Somewhere so far away is where I'll be I'm letting go now, the only choice there is to choose You're bringing me down, it's so hard to face the truth I've let it go now, there's nothing left to prove I've found myself now The truth I know is new Healing the Bruise
4.
(Verse) When I turn you on, I hear the look on your face You play my song, good vibes like yesterday When we were young, creation of a dream Days go on, and still we play (Chorus) You're here now, surrounding me You move me, you're all I feel Without you, without a sound The lights go out, the curtains close (Verse) The volume of your whisper Is slowly fading out I can still remember That resonating sound This ever present pulse Coursing through my veins You speak to me so clearly So I turn to you (Chorus) You're here now, surrounding me You move me, you're all I feel Without you, without a sound The lights go out, the curtains close They close

(Verse) We knew this day Would come to end What have we done I hate this place You've put me in What will I do? When the truth comes out (Chorus) You wanted more I couldn't give you anything You tried so hard Take it away from me (Verse) Another day Of giving in What have I done I hate the taste Of temptation I'll disappear When the truth comes out (Chorus) You wanted more I couldn't give you anything You tried so hard Take it away from me I can't afford To throw away everything We've gone to far Take it , get away from me (Bridge) There's no way I can run from the truth And there's no where to hide There's no way you can run from the truth And it's not worth the fight It looks like we've made things a mess Let's just close the door It's time that we gave it a rest You've poisoned the air (Chorus) You wanted more I couldn't give you anything You tried so hard Take it away from me I can't afford To throw away everything We've gone to far Take it , get away from me Take it away from me Take it , get away from me Take it away from me

(Verse) Coming to, remnants dissolving rest Divided by, resonance resolving this We are wondering If you can bring us back Where are we wandering Within this endless dream? Seeping through Boundaries among two worlds Between the veil Always separating us (Chorus) We are the uninvited Seeking out salvation In this moment We are definitve Our path is limited Barriers surrounding us In this moment We are all relative (Verse) All we are, thrown into oblivion Residual,reluctant to awakening We are wondering If you can bring us back Where are we wandering Within this endless dream? All they are, containing what we seem to see Insidious, blind to what we think we know (Chorus) We are the uninvited Seeking out salvation In this moment We are definitve Our path is limited Barriers surrounding us In this moment We are all relative (Bridge) It seems that none will know What's real and what is distant To come this far And still be so skeptical When time is of the essence What will we do? To come this far And still be so difficult (Bridge) Wait for it to break our ascension Now the time is gone ,forsaken Wait for it to break the septa Now our eyes have closed , awaken The septa In the middle Between two chambers below the sun We're beginning To feel the warmth as one (Chorus) We are the uninvited Seeking out salvation In this moment We are definitve Our path is limited Barriers surrounding us In this moment We are all relative All we are (relative)
