"Chances Are #2"

"Chances Are #2"


Imagine if you will
Having more than you had planned
And now that it's all yours
You just can't wait to wash your hands
Chances are, it just might come true
Have you ever made a wish

And held your breath for days
And when you get that wish
You can't wish it away
Chances are, it just might come true
Chances are, it just might come true

"Chase The Wind"

"Chase The Wind"


Sometimes I feel like slipping away
I need a life of my own
Don't make me stay
Should I go now or should I wait
You are my flesh and blood
One wish is not enough
Let me go
All I want is to chase the wind
All I want is to feel that feeling again
Let me chase the wind
Sometimes the air's so thick I can't breathe
The longer that I wait
The harder to leave
So many time I should have broken free
You are my flesh and blood
One wish is not enough
Some things are never really over
[Chorus:]
Let me go
All I want is to chase the wind
All I want is to feel that feeling again
Let me go
All I want is to dream again
All I want is to chase the wind
Let me chase the wind
If this dream lasts too long
There's a chance it may go wrong
And I may never get this chance again
Let me go
Let me go
[Chorus x2]

"Climbing The Ladder"

"Climbing The Ladder"


Wiping his brow
He managed to tear himself away
The past few nights
Had left him rather tired
Returned his thoughts
To a need he found overpowering
He felt success
Was now within his grasp

Climbing the ladder
Three runs forward, two runs back
Climbing the ladder
Trying to stay on just the right track

Keeps up the pace
Tells himself that it's all worthwhile
Hard work
Is its own reward one day
Could he be wrong?
Are all his dreams merely fantasies
And would it all
Fall in on him some day?

Climbing the ladder
Three runs forward, two runs back
Climbing the ladder
Trying to stay on just the right track

Now he sits back
Amid all the things he worked so hard for
And wonders
Was his energy well spent?
Whatever the price
He is where he wants to be
The end has justified
The means and all

Climbing the ladder
Three runs forward, two runs back
Climbing the ladder
Trying to stay on just the right track

"Compromise"

"Compromise"


Last time you dramatized
I knew it was your job
And you really did it well
Next time you might criticize
I get so confused
What'll it be this time?
[Chorus:]
Compromise
Compromise
Now, reflect, but not too long!
Those presses are waiting,
Can't miss that deadline!
Even at the best of times
You can't hope to please us all.
So what'll it be this time?
[Repeat Chorus]
Reload... Then hide again
Each time a different view
How's your perspective?
Bending a little line
You... could... use... a...
very... different... kind...
of...
..phrasing
What'll it be this time?
[Repeat Chorus]

"Crown Of Thorns"

"Crown Of Thorns"


Truth is born, mystified
'Til the day it hunts you down
Crown of thorns, dignified
Fills my head without a sound

One endless crime of anxiety
Am I last in line?
The ocean of time has forsaken me
Tell me, why?

Iron tongues, suckled life
While I'm helpless bruised and torn
Broken laws, poisoned minds
Feel my blood is running cold

One endless crime of anxiety
Am I last in line?
The ocean of time has forsaken me
Tell me, why?

The scattered profanity
Honored and written in stone
Conducted by vanity
Leading us more than you know

Wreck of lies, toxic codes
As I start to lose control
Cracks my skin, indisposed
Now I'm ready to explode

One endless crime of anxiety
Am I last in line?
The ocean of time has forsaken me
Tell me, why?

The scattered profanity
Honored and written in stone
Conducted by vanity
Leading us more than you know

One endless crime of anxiety
Am I last in line?
The ocean of time has forsaken me
Tell me, why?

Truth is born, mystified
'Til the day it hunts you down
Crown of thorns, dignified
Fills my head without a sound

The scattered profanity
Honored and written in stone
Conducted by vanity
Leading us more than you know

"Days Like These"

"Days Like These"


I thought that passed this way again
I feel the changes in my heart
I still have questions that I've asked myself a million times
I know the answers can't be that far behind
I won't forget you're always there
And don't you know I'll always care
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
I know that dawn will take away the distant day
Tomorrow always finds a way
'Cause we're just passing through on our way to another stage
And thoughts that linger will be those of today
I won't forget you're always there
And don't you know I'll always care
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
Thoughts that linger will always be the same
There will never be days like these again
There'll never be days like these again
You know we'll always be the same
There'll never be days like these again
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again

"Don't Be Late (Chapter Two)"

"Don't Be Late (Chapter Two)"


Look at him running, there's so far to go
He's very short of breath
And he'd said don't be late
Just don't be late
With his parcel tucked tight under his arm
He's sure he's passed half way
And he'd said don't be late
Just don't be late

Did you do everything you're told
The instruction you had was old

I wasn't sure if I'd hear you
I'm glad you're still alright

It's all been arranged for ten
The streets should be clear by then

I've done all that you told me
I'm sure that they will wait

Their timing was made quite clear
If we're late they will not appear

They don't know, they don't know
They don't know how far we've had to go

Can you pick up this slowing pace
You're running a losing race

No, soon we'll see them, then you'll know
That I have not delayed, he said

Hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry, you might be late
Just hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry, you may be late

If we're late, I will not survive
They will keep me alive

It's not too far now
And I can only wish you luck, friend

I'm sorry I go alone
This metal is a cold home

I can see them waiting
A few more steps and you'll be there, he said

Hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry, you might be late
Just hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry, you may be late

Just hurry and don't be late
You'd better hurry you may be late

"Don't Bother"

"Don't Bother"


Each day I find it a little bit harder
To get up out of bed
I can't seem to start to my head
What was I to do? I can't remember
Did I talk to you?
Have you forgotten too?

Things keep piling up they don't get better
Looks like I am stuck again; bad weather

Life for me can be a great big bother
Does it feel like that to you?
What are we to do?
Each day's events, one after another
I always get there late
What a sorry state

Things keep piling up they don't get better
Looks like I am stuck again; bad weather

"Don't Forget To Breathe"

"Don't Forget To Breathe"


Sometimes it's more,
Sometimes it's less
Than what you were expecting
Sometimes the worst,
Sometimes the best
It's what you leave behind

You never know when you'll be
Rid of this place
You never know when you might
Need a new face

Sometimes within,
Sometimes without
The style you've been perfecting
Sometimes you're slow,
Sometimes you're fast
Enough to cheat them blind

One day you've no longer
A need for this place
'Till then the hunger's
Written all over your face

Caught up in the grind is fine
As long as what you hope to find is
Everything you're looking for
Just don't forget to breathe...

Sometimes you're up,
Sometimes you're down
Down and out in Random City
Sometimes a grin,
Sometimes a frown
Reveals you nitty gritty

Caught up in the grind is fine
As long as what you hope to find is
Everything you're looking for
Just don't forget to breathe...

Sometimes it's more,
Sometimes it's less
Than what you were expecting
Sometimes the worst,
Sometimes the best
It's what you leave behind

One day you've no longer
A need for this place
'Till then the hunger's
Written all over your face

Caught up in the grind is fine
As long as what you hope to find is
Everything you're looking for
Just don't forget to breathe...
