Every night that I can see, your planet shines back at me. And every one is filled with sounds of memories I can't live down. All this weather brought an end to people who were once my friends. Now I don't see them anymore, or any sky like once before. I was waiting for a change through the summertime, but the season gave her life and yielded no surprise. There ain't nothing here for me, just rusted reds and sighs of grief. I'm leaving rusted home of old and getting well-or so I'm told. If you're waiting for a change, you don't know me well. But I guess you know me now. I was the one who was needing a change in sight and I never meant to hurt you. Is there not a way to amend all the broken lines and find a way to the place where we once stayed? Every night you have a dream and though you rest you never sleep. The stars were shining oh so bright and what you needed was a reason. They want to teach you something.

You needn't say any word, I can hear you. All I know is I'm making a mistake. How do you feel? I want to breathe you in slowly and never leave what I never really had. 'Cause they're no answers to befriend and there's no reason for this beginning. It must be true. You'll never know the feelings that you gave me freely. In our light, there's no room to make divides. But I feel, way up high, hidden from view, there are things that we just cannot believe. 'Cause they're no answers to befriend and there's no reason for this beginning. I hope it's true. 'Cause there are answers to befriend and there's a reason for this beginning. This is the last time I'll call you Dear. Ignore the demons that fill you ears, that feed your fears.

A City 03:58
We wouldn't have it any other way- a city to ourselves and those who love, where anyone around here could see these snowy evenings make our days complete. And from what we know there's a window to a place where we once were so afraid. Now something's fallen on the trees, and, though we never, we now do believe there is a way. There is a place where the snow won't melt down. There is a place where children play and there's no need to fear. This is the safe. These are remains. Make no mistakes. This is the way.

No I won't go aside, no I won't give in, and put me in the ground....You put me in the ground. I couldn't see what I didn't need, and this is no surprise this is a slow demise. Nobody should take sides. Hey. Give me back what I had, it isn't mine, but it's not yours. With it we open doors. What do you want and what can I do to make you feel alright? If I had insight, I'd tell you everything I know. And though I know you're the one, it means nothing to me that our generations are gone. They all came tumbling down with speed. And in the air, and in the streets of my mind, they survived. They thrived. They rely on what you gave them long ago. Take some time, think about your goodbye. Remember all your words. They will return for sure. I'm only now, a warning voice. I hope you know I let the past be past; and put the bad things last-or at least I try. You don't know what I've been through. You don't know what we've been through for you. And I've got nothing left to say to you. A little time made a new you. They've arrived. Do what you gave them long ago.

Left Behind 03:40
I believe that from up here that lack of sound brings me nearer. Though deaf and blind I make the climb-only now I've left behind what's dearer. But I know your heart. I know you're not like them. For they filter through the ends. And you remain a life that I thought I'd never find. I'll place you where I reside. I truly never thought I'd need you, that a want was something heavy to hold. But that's telling a lie about you. Now I have a hope. I'm keeping faith alive this isn't the end we've wanted. There's a place where we can find true Home. I'm holding on for future times, sorry that I left behind. So sorry I left behind.

Is somebody else moving through me? Is any other thought how I want to be? I can't make a point without reducing or take a piece of truth and use it clearly. And if you want me to I will keep the rhythms and the levels inside my head. There will come change my way. Will that be what I need? Using sound, it moved me down to other places by keeping portions of familiar faces. I'd used it all the time until a better way. It was too hard to see that there was a better way. I knew I'd missed the point entirely. There will be steps to free when we learn what we've heard. There will be other scenes. You doth bring change I need.

One Array 05:29
Given the meaning, I'm alright. No ordinary feelings to describe. I wish I could give it to everyone on the earth. A deed we all need, and we need the mirth. Of all that I'm told, this one thing I know. Of all the things I ever wanted, you could bring the soul. I can't meet you, but I need you. You're my only hope. Remember the good times, way back, when we drove? You wrapped your arms around me in the snow. I never told you, but that day, I was home. It felt good to know your love as my window. I don't know how you'd not know it, how could you not see you leave a shining, thriving city. I want you to believe you're a part of me and I'm of you, and we make one array. It feels good to know your love is my window.

Un-map 02:32
You got the best of me. I'm gonna crash for you. I'm gonna laugh, I'm gonna be true for you. What will I do without you? What will I come home to? I need a way to get through. What will I do without you? I can't believe you're gone, and I don't know for how long I'm gonna crash. I'm gonna crash for you. I'm gonna laugh, I'm gonna be true for you.

From the very first time that I knew you, I knew there was something to be true to. Moving very slowly makes me have to use the facts I'm given to construe you. You've been my only way in, my only form of payment and you lead me to disguise. My time has been outdated, this house dilapidated, and I sorrow at it's time. Someday, when I'm ready, there I'll see you. I'll be waiting for the answer that I always knew. This heart has all complacence, a cure for every hatred that I ever occupied. My lovely girl, it's you that I adore and I'm always wanting more. I know, silly girl, you take me by the hand and we'll make it through this land alone. [Your hands are my replacements, they only living faces that I wanted to believe]
