| Dallas | Hi, its raining here in dallas. For the first time this summer the locals say. I don't know if its true or if it's just a load of bs. All I really know is rain or shine this country isn't habitable, its a wasteland. I know people think they can live here and be happy but they can't and in the end its all the same. Why do they even try one may ask? Well I guess it all comes down to we all have dreams and we all have to follow them sooner or later. I for one am glad we don't all have or follow the same dreams. I don't want to be a doctor but I'm glad someone is. We don't really want to throw our party but someone has to and the time draws nigh when it is more than necessary. Do you ever go to bed one morning and look back on the week and think wow what have I done this week? Have I used lol so many times it no longer has meaning even in my own mind? Did the ghosts of events remaining in my consciousness accur this week or last or in some bygone era only remembered in some tattered history book used like davids pillow stone by some less than studious student who's thoughts drift into some unknown realm that not even he himself could actually explain to me let alone aid me in the rememberance of something he neglected to actually learn? Is my life so predictable that from one week to the next there is nothing of consequence to distinguish them by? Is this a bad thing? Would randomness be preferable? Is true randomness even conceivably possible? Or is not every event or action no matter how random it seems actually a direct or indirect result of the cascade of event preceding it? | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| Pastures of the Mind | I woke up on a desert island the sun was going down there was a boat tied to a palm tree near and phony looking clown I stood up and called shotgun But he said take it if you dare I didn't dare but I knew it wasn't right I laughed at him said that not fair he said whats fair or foul is an illusion and illusions change from time to time I wasn't sure 'bout what he'd said but I sat down in the back the clown yelled and got back out again mumbling something about a tack so we sped off across the water I though we should be home by three The clown I never saw again but i never took his cherished seat I guess his wise words were an illusion and illusions dissapear from time to time When I finally got to town I ran into the garbage man he said the worlds more full of sorrow that you could ever understand I told him well that fine but could you tell me where I am He he pulled a rabbit from his hat said he learned it in back in Nam guess that apperance is as an illusion and illusions aren't always as they seem Well i met some girl at the top of a hill she said she'd gladly die for her beliefs I said but the honor is to live for them while the world attacks without relief She said i think i see what you're saying and then bent down to kiss my feet She said its getting late so lets go home So we went walking up the street Just because you believe in an illusion doesn't mean that it believes in you Well I left there in the morning i still wondered where I was Policeman asked me why i went that way And i answered just because When I finally got where I was going I sat down and wrote this song I was an eagle scout and everything but something still seemed wrong I guess sometimes success is an illusion but you'll never know unless make it there | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| Acolyte | Two brothers locked in arms. Fighting over who knows what The invaders they must fall This place they own you say is yours You say they all must die Kill them all at any cost I'm afraid i can't see why have you ever thought about your ways. Acolyte you follow those around you Acolyte Wicked plans and thoughts surround you The blind will lead the blind until they drown you Acolyte, Acolyte everything you choose to see everything that shouldn't be everything you have to see and everything that has to be You don't have to do what they tell you even though you think that you do you don't want to do what they tell you think to think yourself and join the few Acolyte you follow those around you Acolyte Wicked plans and thoughts surround you The blind will lead the blind until they drown you Acolyte, Acolyte | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| Worst Road Yet | Does it even matter If we lose or win We live in days that Have never been lived in Now not being safe Is some kind of sin Fasten your seat belt They might haul you in You better license your pet Is this the worst road yet? Now rock & roll is Made in Hollywood And cheap computers Do what DJ's should Your watched from the sky So you better be good You want to turn back Oh if only you could As the sun starts to set Is this the worst road yet? Our time is devoured By time saving machines Living in cyberspace But we forget to be Lasers fix our vision And yet we fail to see As knowledge increases We let wisdom go free Your wheels are all wet Much to all our regret Your inclined to forget This is the worst road yet | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| Happy Song | You say its cold out here I say its been that way for years You say the rain keeps coming down I say move so you don't drown But you look at me and frown I say you got it all wrong cause this is a happy song [chorus] Cause if you smile every chance you get and remember all your friends Then this songs will never end. Babe i'm so tired thoughts they kept me up all night Not sure exactly what it is But babe something sure aint right You could make it better you could fix this Help me figure out where I belong but this is still a happy song [chorus] [bridge] You stand on the brink of eternity What will you do, why do you hide I heard you say that your an outcast No one wants you anymore I hope you know thats just a contrast You know that things could be way worse Although you just messed up this verse Everybody sing a long because this is a happy song You say that I'm your favorite what does that even mean You say that I'm the coolest What if i wasn't on the scene Is that how you really feel I've wondered for so long But this will always be a happy song | Show | Edit | Destroy |

| Reflection in the Dark | Shadows all around me but mine I cannot see they all are one around me but mine has ceased to be Searching for an answer for my reflection in the dark Like the light under the basket But mine is just a spark Wind blows through the treetops And try's to blow me out There's people in the distance They can't hear me when I shout Searching for an answer for my reflection in the dark Like the light under the basket Mine is just a spark My light shines off the waters I guess I've always known I've been smothered by the darkness But I was never alone I've finally found answer see my reflection in the dark Like the light on a rooftop Shining bright for all to see | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| Where Are You | Do you Know how dark the world can be. Have you even been outside lately Why can't we all just get along When I say hello you look surprised the shock is showing in your eyes Someone you don't know just told you hi You don't care you think your cool You look at me like I'm a fool Where will you be when the world comes crashing down? When your less than you thought you were Can't do what you want no more Would you have have the time to talk to you When shadows drift across the sky Will you even stop to wonder why You never really thought this day would come | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| Sometimes | Sometimes I don't know what to say Sometimes I say it anyway Sometimes I don't make a sound Sometimes I wish you were around Sometimes life don't make no sense Sometimes people are so dense All I really want to know What direction should I go Sometimes when trees are falling down The thunder crashes all around Sometimes you know that it ain't right but the rain comes down all night Sometime all of us will die Somewhere a brand new baby cries You really wish you knew But you don't have a clue Sometimes its fun the rules to bend I guess they say it hurts us in the end Sometimes we don't have a plan That lasts longer than melting crayon Sometimes songs end before they should Sometimes you really wish they would We could make life better and we know it And yet we just try to ignore it Whats cool and whats not Whats cool and whats hot Who told you that? | Show | Edit | Destroy |
| By a Tree | Rain rain go away Don't come again another day I want to go outside to play Don't come again another day Am I the only one? That ever felt this way I feel lonely I feel sad What was supposed to say How should I behave? Should do something more I want to say something brave Something I haven't said before Rain rain go away Don't come again another day I want to go outside to play Don't come again another day | Show | Edit | Destroy |
