Trip the wire
Didn’t see it in the dark
This is so familiar
Kick and screaming down the path
Don’t you walk away
Don’t you walk away
Avoid the issue
It won’t disintegrate when you close your eyes
Don’t you walk away
Don’t you walk away
Avoid the issue
Won’t just evaporate when you close your eyes
Eyes go dark
Gaze falls to the ground
Graceful words
Are nowhere to be found
They are nowhere to be found
Eyes go dark
Gaze falls to the ground
Graceful words

Sentiments

Like a tide
It ebbs and flows
It waxes and it wanes
It leaves your mind in tow
Like you’re tied to a submarine
Until it hits the surface you can’t control when you breath
I can’t depend on sentiments
I can’t rely on my mood
It lifts me up and it lets me down
Messes me around
I’ve got to cling to the truth
When you’re on top
Like the world is your own
When you can’t be stopped
When you just can’t be wrong
When the brain is fried
When the basket is full
That’s when you lose your mind
That’s when you lose your cool
I can’t depend on sentiments
I can’t rely on my mood
It lifts me up and it lets me down
Messes me around
I’ve got to cling to the truth
I fall, I fall, I fall
On your safety net
On your safety net
I fall, I fall, I fall
On your safety net
On your safety net
I fall, I fall, I fall
On your safety net
On your safety net
I fall, I fall, I fall
On your safety net
On your safety net
I fall, I fall, I fall
On your safety net
On your safety net

Take Me Over

Another day ticks over
Another wake up call resounds
Like going through the motions
Only this plane never leaves the ground
Of patience there is plenty
Resolution does abound
Stagnation won’t describe it
There is up or there is down
And the time draws closer
To the day to hold account
When all is done and dusted
To what will this amount
Do better, try harder
Is that all you’ve got to share
I don’t buy that for one second
It’s gonna lead us to despair
Take me over
Into your hands
Take me over
Into your hands

Compass

That’s not right
She said as she surveyed
Her eyes showed her crookedness and greed
That’s not fair
Even the youngest child
Quickly learns to make a scene
Some say it’s every man for his or her own
Some say that all is fair in love and war
Rain will fall
And when you’re caught in the storm
Don’t you feel it keenly then
Victims testify
That justice is required
Though they might wonder where it is
Some say it’s every man for his or her own
Some say that all is fair in love and war
Broken hearts will attest
Something is amiss
Answers polarize
Responses divide
Everyone believes in some kind of wrong and some kind of right
And the difference resides in where you’re gonna draw the line
Conscience belies we’ve got a compass deep inside
Though the points may not align we know someones gotta pay the price
Everyone believes in some kind of wrong and some kind of right
And the difference resides in where you’re gonna draw the line
Conscience belies we’ve got a compass deep inside
Though the points may not a-line we know someones gotta pay the price
