Something Without Substance
I've been chasing something without substance.
It's bared no fruit let alone no sustenance.
And I find myself growing weaker!
(So sick of wasting all my time)
The future's growing bleaker!
So I think...
Why go chasing something without substance?
It just causes so much pain and suffering...
and I'm so sick of growing weaker!
(So sick of wasting all my time)
Here I am sinking deeper!
(This quicksand has me in a bind)
The future's growing bleaker!
(So worn out by this daily grind)
BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE IN!
WHO'S WITH ME????
No more chasing something without substance
It's time to get out of this rut I've been in
and now I'm done with all the Anguish
I will not forget this!
But It's time...
TO SAY GOOD BYE! (X2)

They say home is where the heart is
But without a beat, where do you live?
I'll fly away, I'll fly away
I'll find you a place to stay
Our blood is running deep
But are we turning away, or are we running just to stay?
Could I ever take you home
Could I take you somewhere I've never known?
Could I make you believe, you were made for me?
Could you ever see that I am all you need?
Build me a river
Drain me out into the sea
I've got a place in mind where I know we'd both be happy
Could I ever take you home
Could I take you somewhere I've never known?
Could I make you believe, you were made for me?
Could you ever see that I am all you need?
Our blood is running deep!
Can I take you home?
Can I take you somewhere?
Could I make you believe that I am all you need?

Roadside Relics

Can you hear the voices of the past begging for a sign that their words aren't lost.
Have we lost our way? Our sight?
Directions are unclear.
Our eyes stay blind to our fathers sacrifice.
Can we all accept the fact that life is moving way too fast passing by these roadside relics?
Can you hear the voices in your mind guiding you along, or do you ignore them?
Misguided by our greed and hunger for more...we always want more, but never give more.
Do we take this world for granted?
Our forefathers history?
Do we take this life we're given and make it all our own?
Will we rise up from the depths and keep integrity?
Can we all accept the fact that life is moving way too fast passing by these roadside relics?
Do we take this world for granted? Our forefathers sacrifices and their history?
We rise above the hell and keep integrity and earn our forefathers sacrifices and their history
Do we take this life we're given and make it all our own?
Do we take this world for granted?
Our forefathers history?
Do we take this life we're given and make it all our own?
Will we rise up from the depths and keep integrity?
Can we all accept the fact that life is moving way too fast passing by these roadside relics? (x2)

This is not where we said we would end up in the end.
Surrounded by these things we couldn't shake off of our backs. (x2)
But we said it was all because of fear that we never took control of these situations.
With your heart in your hands and my fear checked at the door we can become anything.
CLENCH YOUR FISTS!
TAKE CONTROL!
OF YOUR LIFE!
FOR NO ONE BUT YOURSELF! (x2)
Now we find ourselves second guessing every second step.
Afraid of innovation by defeat of ideals you couldn't shake.
CLENCH YOUR FISTS!
TAKE CONTROL!
OF YOUR LIFE!
FOR NO ONE BUT YOURSELF! (x2)
This is right where we said we would end up in the end.
Surrounded by everything we've ever wanted.
