Higher 05:06
Sing it loud and clear Forget about what you hear Sing it from the heart I say Or the soul will go away Play your music all night long Don’t forget to sing your song This is the desire Your level is getting higher Higher Climb Higher Stand Higher Higher See the Fire Burn Higher Higher Stand Higher We’re Higher Anything or Everything? What do you ask of me? Do it your own way, be what you wanna be The point of no return Do what you have to learn And if you don’t do it you’re own way That is where you’ll burn You must go higher Higher Climb Higher Stand Higher Higher See the Fire Burn Higher Higher Stand Higher We’re Higher I say it to you, you must do Get outta my way, I’m Higher today Turn to the crowd, sing it out loud Feed it through your soul And raise the roof higher

Lay It Down 04:18
Such a beautiful day In their perfect life And I, I stay confined My skin’s as pale as the whites in their eyes Tears roll down my eyes Onto my pillow My nose stuffed up, my eyes bloodshot, why can’t I feel The way I did, just a few years ago I don’t know me I don’t know who I am What I know, nobody cares And I lay it down again Everyone’s got their perfect life I just got a pen While I’m alone and confused I lay it down again I don’t know me I don’t know who I am What I know, nobody cares And I lay it down again My body is a prison And my mind is torturing me It’s attacking my will I can’t live, I can’t love I’m never free Death’s too far away Think I’m seen, as nothing more, than a clown So I still stay confined In my shell and I still lay it down

Have you ever felt alone Like you’re trapped inside a box And you think that you’re life is a mistake? Have you ever felt alone When it’s hard to trust And you’re sick and tired of people acting fake? You try to think You try to fight You try to do what’s right But it holds you down In the dark And it keeps you out of sight People say you’ve got it all But you long for something more It overwhelms you and drives you insane You have it all It’s deep inside Smothered by endless amounts of pain You try to think You try to fight You try to do what’s right But it holds you down In the dark And it keeps you out of sight I know how you feel you’re trying to be real I know how you feel Fight, Fight, Endless war Fight, Fight, Open the door

The Sickness 04:31
As I walk on the street everything I see It’s the last thing that I will remember to be I just want to be alone you hear my son All that I do now is be that one That one is just the first, ever since my birth It will always be that one big thirst That one big lie, you hear those that cry One giant leap, it is just one I go across the street, walk on swollen feet The one thing that I always know, is that this sickness can’t be beat I’m standing in the fire, my temp is getting higher Can’t you hear my cry, it’s all one big lie That one is just the first, ever since my birth It will always be that one big thirst That one big lie, you hear those that cry One giant leap, it is just one One thing I know I cannot go To see my light that shines bright I want you to hear, reveal that shining tear Can’t I do it? I want so much to be the one Release the one’s that fear they all cannot hear The cry’s of the little ones weeping their very last tear That one is just the first, ever since my birth It will always be that one big thirst That one big lie, you hear those that cry One giant leap, it is just one One thing I know I cannot go To see my light that shines bright I want you to hear, reveal that shining tear Can’t I do it? Can’t I do it? Oh Can’t I do it? I want so much to be the one

Dakota Storm 05:20
It’s that time the buffalo sleeps at night Stars in big sky and worried about rattlesnake bites The wind picks up that the burning hills take in You look to the west and see a storm roll in We stand on the hill the young girl by my side It’s hard to tell what goes through her mind Lightning flashes, lights the hills around Can’t tell if she’s scared she won’t make a sound I clench her tight the dark clouds overhead Puzzling beauty surrounds We came through way too fast We both knew that it wouldn’t last So we had the time of our lives till early morn Getting through our Dakota storm I try not to waste a good summer night Cool breezes and sunset fading light Walking with that brown eyed girl Distant storms while we dance and twirl We realize we don’t have much time left So let’s make the most of this We came through way too fast We both knew that it wouldn’t last So we had the time of our lives till early morn Getting through our Dakota storm Fading light Stormy night Rain drops while we kiss This summer night We came through way too fast We both knew that it wouldn’t last So we had the time of our lives till early morn Getting through our Dakota storm So we had the time of our lives till early morn Getting through our Dakota storm

Trigger 04:39
Life, is just a silly game We’re relaxed with a win, a loss sees nervous pain The adrenaline it gets you jacked up You see things that weren’t there before You stood up to your past, but you get shot down You wonder what it takes to win this war One, by one, by one, day by day His fame gets bigger Piece, by piece, by piece He built their gun And he pulled the trigger The days come, and they go on and on They say the more you try you just make her cry So march on, you can’t win with her, what’s said’s been said, you said goodbye You’re just their little puppet, do everything and love it You corporate shit sniffer trying to get somewhere You want to throw it back in their face But you’re so used to getting put in your place One, by one, by one, day by day His fame gets bigger Piece, by piece, by piece He built their gun And he pulled the trigger We never do it our own way We’re scared of change we follow them too much We blend with the crowd, we use them as a crutch We want to be like them, we follow them too much One, by one, by one, day by day His fame gets bigger Piece, by piece, by piece He built their gun And he pulled the trigger
