Our Mother

Oh I hear our mother crying, yes I hear our mother crying
and it makes me feel like dying, oh it makes me feel like dying
Oh I hear our mother crying, yes I hear our mother crying
and it makes me feel like dying, makes me feel like dying now
I see the seas are bloody red
unreal future full of dread
seems like soon we'll all be dead
all the warnings have been said
now Ill turn my soul to blue
Out of love, so why don't you?
standing there without a clue
blind eyes and your closed ears too
can't you see?
Oh I sense our mother's anger, yes I sense our mother's anger
It will erupt in fire, soon it will erupt in fire
Oh I sense our mother's anger, yes I sense our mother's anger
It will erupt in fire, soon it will erupt in fire
Oh I hear our mother crying, yes I hear our mother crying
and it makes me feel like dying, oh it makes me feel like dying
Oh I hear our mother crying, yes I hear our mother crying
and it makes me feel like dying, yeah, soon we'll all be dying, now

Tonight (Need You)
03:16
|

Tonight I'm wide awake 'till dawn
wondering just how long you will be gone
like the sun during that eclipse
only truth will emit out of my lips
now I'm seeing error in my ways
much too late? won't accept that fate
better myself, 'cause you pull me up
feel it in my guts it'll be enough
Tonight I'm lonely, and my soul needs you (x2)
Tonight I'm putting more effort towards
striking a chord, and making you sure
yeah, I know it may not be right now
but it'll happen somehow, I won't go without
think of things said in recent times
no, my mind can not unwind
oh, I know I gotta have you back
'cause everytime that I relax, my shadow attacks
Tonight I'm lonely, and my soul needs you (x2)

Feels So Strong
02:18
|
|||
|
Memories that feel so strong
living in the past for oh so long
three weeks down, how many more to go?
Often i just make you mad
and you ignore despite my sadness
and I gotta say, I'm getting what I deserve, I guess

Life Is Strange
02:53
|
|||
|
I sit in pain 'cause I lost you twice
my lonely brain reaches out to you all night
I feel insane, unwanted, insecure
but life is strange, of that fact I'm sure
You and me will end up together
Be my queen I will treat you better
when were apart, feel you more than ever
you and me will end up together
I waited all day for you to call my device
it never rings, still, I won't think twice
because our bond, it's unique I'm sure
even my songs don't mean shit to me no more
You and me will end up together
Be my queen I will treat you better
when were apart, feel you more than ever
you and me will end up together

Alone
01:58
|
|||
|
long day, drive away
waste time, chase sun rays
dismay, think I'll stay
Then claim it's okay
if I think it's of you
yeah, oh, you know it's true
wish that we agreed
on signs, we both see
things that come in threes
not now? It can't be
dead phone, I'm alone
always, I'm too stoned
you might as well say
too busy for another day
if I think it's of you
yeah, oh, you know that's true
|

6. |
||||
|
All alone, thinking of a brown-eyed stare
on a phone, thoughts becoming so unclear
life is change, she bought clothes and cut her hair
life is strange, our story won't end there
No longer can I lie to you
I'm blinded by your truth
Insecure thinking brings on liquid red
so unsure, knowing all those things that were said
even more, oh so much it fills my head
now I'm bored wishing I had you instead
Yes, I would gladly start anew
experience fades out our youth

Scorpius (The Adversary)
02:50
|
|||
|
Sometimes I think I know
the path my journey follows
I see the light glows at the end
it silhouettes my only friend
a companion who comforts me
at other times, it is my enemy
oh, let me be, said it all before
I'm not the only one who stopped keeping score
Sometimes, I think I'm done
and i'd like to go thru the sun
and tunnel to eternal mind
guardian stands so still in time
awaiting those who's journey's end
is right there, beyond my friend
that same old friend challenges me
once again, my lower enemy
