Phoenix From The Flames
03:07
|
|||
|
I feel the cracking of my bones
in my mouth I taste my own blood
Spit and kicks from everywhere
no way to escape
Vultures circling in the sky
monsters of another kind
They laugh and feed on my pain
feasting on disdain
Hit me again
if you need someone to blame
it's gonna ease your pain
that's ok, I don't care
and I, I will rise again
phoenix from the flames

Story Of A Human Being
03:10
|
|||
|
So scared that I can't breathe
I still wear the marks right on my skin
of endless days I thought i wouldn't make it
Through the desert, in the burning sand
afraid and tortured in a foreign land
will this wooden coffin stay afloat?
Away from home
far away from home
far away
away from home
far away from home
far away
All the things I left behind
I feel so stupid 'cause I'm crying
for memories that no longer matter
They're flashing quickly through my mind
like slides, like frames of my own film
so remote, I can't recognize myself
Away from home
far away from home
far away
away from home
far away from home
far away
Now my tears are mixing
with the salty waves of this dark hostile sea
it grabs me and pulls me down
I try to slip away, but I can't breathe
If you ever hear my story
please always remember why I'm gone
I was simply trying to live my life
looking for a place I could call home

YYZ
03:14

|
Walking on Spadina with a hundred million thoughts
heading down to Queen West
destination still unknown
going where my feet will take me
lost in a maze of wrong turns
Counting steps and counting names and counting my mistakes
listing untold secrets
and for once just being late
fading into nothing once again
I know that my place in the world is here
I know that my place in the world's not here
I trust my inner compass like a sailor in the storm
I push on despite the fact that I got lost
I turn my existence upside down at every coin I toss
a million times I did it right
a million I did it wrong
decisions taken, directions, plans
on which I have no control

Perfect Texture
02:34
|
|||
|
What is real and what is fake?
can't distinguish what's in front of me
a perfect texture, synthesized
everything looks smooth and flawless
Gliding on a different plane
a million faces all around me
they all kind of look the same
they tell me I'm not alone
you're not alone, you're not alone
they whisper as they fade away
you're not alone, you're not alone
I'm not alone
What is real and what is fake?
what guise will you wear today?
a perfect – texture
built from nothing – built for nothing
While this music plays we dance
to forget how to find real solace
the only truth dissolves away
right before our eyes
You're not alone, you're not alone
they whisper as they fade away
you're not alone, you're not alone
I'm not alone
All around me walls grow taller
I gasp for air while this room gets smaller
I reach out for the handle
and pull it
there's another world outside of here

Rosary Of Days
03:03
|
|||
|
There must be something more
there must be something more
than a rosary of days with my name
the only proof at some point I was there
I woke up in my bed
in a sea of sweat
like every day
chugged my piss coffee and ate nothing
there's no time, I'm gonna miss my train
Working so hard to gain nothing
just to make sure I can sustain
the weight of life that slips away
a velvet lined coffin in which I hammered each day
There must be something more
there must be something more
than a rosary of days with my name
the only proof at some point I was there
6.30 am
same plot again
what's to understand?
it was a lie when they kept saying
that I was meant to do something grand
I can't remember when it happened
when inside me something just snapped
I threw in the towel
lights off and in my hands
the perception that nothing was real

Bomb Inside My Head
02:00
|
|||
|
There's a bomb inside my head
you gotta be a little crazy to be sane in this world of fear
there's a bomb inside my head
it's gonna explode and paint this city all colors – what a great idea
Today's all mine
'cause tomorrow doesn't look like
I'm completely out of control
'cause I'm so tired
of being let down
it's over now
There's a bomb inside my head
suddenly it's all crystal clear
there's a bomb inside my head
it's either give in to apathy or start a revolution right here
Today's all mine
'cause tomorrow doesn't look like
I'm completely out of control
'cause I'm so tired
of being let down
it's over now
Right now!
right now!
right now! right now! right now!

As One
03:40
|
|||
|
Breathe
hold this moment
we're floating free
and there's nothing else
Panic
a distant memory
tranquility
surrounds it all
No one else
understands me
more than you
we're as one
Clear
the sky above us
and down below
our tiny earth
Trails crossed
into the darkness
and gravity
brought us so close
No one else
understands me
more than you
take my hand and jump
into the unknown
tethered to our love
If I traveled a thousand times
a million light years in the space
in every possible direction from this place
I'd always come right back to you
with no hesitation, no more fear
you're the only beacon that I know
I hear you loud and clear
when I'm lost

Seems like we cannot simply learn
mistakes are made again and again
repeating patterns and themes
is it hard to understand
That this path to the grand elite
where you're privileged or you're dead
where ignorance is bliss
we've already seen all this
And yet we keep neglecting
the signals that are coming are strong but no
we're still not
Aware – I swear
I won't just wait for tragedies to come
and again – this fascist farce
won't stand
we've seen it crumble once - let's do it again
'cause today, like yesterday the losers won't prevail
we'll win again
Well my guitar is not a gun
but it's loaded and ready to fire
when times are looking dire
when every little bit counts
to build communities
to thrive and then to stand
protect each other again
we've already seen all this
And yet we keep neglecting
the signals that are coming are strong but no
we're still not
Aware – I swear
I won't just wait for tragedies to come
and again – this fascist farce
won't stand
we've seen it crumble once - let's do it again
'cause today, like yesterday the losers won't prevail
we'll win again
They plant the seed of fear
the scapegoats are always near
they starve us to then watch us fiercely battering our peers
the common cause they build
they language that they use
an easy bite to chew
to infect you
at least just be
aware

Words Unspoken
03:15
|
|||
|
These things I never told you
you didn't give me a chance
I'm mad at you, I'm mad at the world, I'm mad at my goddamn self
I'd try to be convincing
by finding the right words
about how life sometimes just takes these unexpected turns
I'd try to be convincing
but you won't pick up your phone
a single stupid instant and my world is overturned
And all these words unspoken
I'm singing standing here
were meant for you, will you hear
now that you have disappeared
If only I had the chance to tell you what is on my mind
it hurts to know I couldn't see your soul torn in disquiet
I feel so small in front of things I cannot understand
it's what you think is best for you but there is no return
You sink into the silence
as peaceful as it sounds
while all around you a black hole
devours the whole town
And all these words unspoken
I'm singing standing here
were meant for you, will you hear
now that you have disappeared
this humble song goes to those who still can hear these words
when nothing seems to matter
the only thing that matter is you
and all these words unspoken
i'm singing standing here
were meant for you, will you hear
now that you have disappeared

Something's Not Ok
03:07
|
|||
|
We spend more time in the traffic
than with people that we love
we complain about being lonely
we're the reason we're cut off
so disgustingly obedient
even when we should say something's not ok
We don't say a word about injustice
but we get angry for the game
and the people who live worse lives
are the ones we solely blame
being defined by eight hours out of
twenty four and we cannot see that’s not ok
Is it this world that has gone crazy or I'm insane?
am I just another spoiled kid or is it right to complain?
when you see my puzzled look then you know I'm not insane
it's just clear to me that something's not ok
We put chains around our necks
and we built cages to enslave
every single piece of nature
that we need to dominate
we always know someone's responsible
for all that's wrong, we never take the blame
We try to meet high expectations
slaves to everyone but ourselves
we keep buying things that won't last
spending money we don't have
a dystopic universe – is this 1984
all over again?
Still we blankly stare at the fall
hypnotized – as if the fire and flames
were forging a future
without hope

I Still Believe
03:27
|
|||
|
Deep in your eyes
that is where I find – the strength
to hold on and not give up the future
the faith
something's gonna change - one day
I still believe
in you, in the future
I still believe
you'll do what's right
in the future
it all comes down to this, you see
it all comes down to this
Maybe I've seen enough and dark thoughts seem
to suffocate all hopes
when the men are old and tired
and can't confront their own mistakes
in you – I find a bright light at the horizon
we haven't done all this for nothing
I still believe
in you, in the future
I still believe
you'll do what's right
in the future
it all comes down to this, you see
it all comes down to this
