(Verse 1)

Where Music masks the hallowed silence,

And the depth resounds so far away.

Unstable alibis are flawless truths of life.

And only beaming eyes dismiss the day.

(Verse 2)

Good Morning World and they're alive again.

Though chains are carving flesh and bone.

Laughing mouths echo each is louder than before.

Poisoned and melting but still in perfect tone.

(Chorus x2)

On the Surface above the rage

Hiding our sorrow and all of our pain,

Beauty lies and the sad man jokes.

On the Surface who can explain?

All is well and all is the same.

Out of control and void of hope.

(Verse 3)

Tbe music sounds from every corner

With empty faces they greet the day.

And feeble minds are filled with horror

As the others slowly turn away.

(Chorus x 2)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:13:25 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-The-Surface http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Coldest-Days-of-August http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Coldest-Days-of-August#comments
(Chorus)

Maybe I just want to live above this,

Time is wasting,

I'm swimming through all that I can bear,

And you're deaf as always.

I back out, just to leave her apartment,

And I hold on, just to see her smiling,

And I know I might be right..

The Coldest Days of August

(Verse 1)

The sheets are white as are the walls,

They are no different from the last time,

That I was here.

Tracing Emotion like a line of something real,

Is of no meaning

To a ghost consumed by fear.

Tear down these walls,

Combat your smile with my resentment,

Holding back is an echo

I refuse to realize.

Confusion reigns until I understand

That tragedy took the last hand

I had left to drive…

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)

The rise and fall of a simple life,

Now stands replaced by the mix of trials,

And the beautiful dream that lives inside.

It's a shame that most can't hear

Those songs that extend beyond our ear

And see scenes that reach beyond our

Straining eyes.

Your irony was stunning with no direction or proper cause,

Until your presence lit the way to where I belong.

I look back fondly now, not because I miss your hollow shell,

But solely for the the lesson amidst the wrong…

(Chorus x 2)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:13:12 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Coldest-Days-of-August http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Riptide http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Riptide#comments
(Verse 1)

The clear through which we drown

A hand-made and spiraling energy

The mast comes thundering down

No crew is willing to test its reach now

Its not for us to test its reach

(Chorus x 2)

Fainter hearts may feel

It pulls them in and it spits them out now

Understand these words are mine

But its always been more

We are like sand-grains in this riptide

(Verse 2)

We felt this whole thing out

A cruel yet simple irony

Beyond what lies before us yet beyond our doubt

Lies this tide of certain consequence evading me

(Chorus x 3)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:12:55 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Riptide http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Reach http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Reach#comments
(Verse 1)

Somewhere Lives

Are starting to unwind

And you're sitting quiet beside

And you are breathless

And choiceless suppose

You were as helpless as those

Who swim as fish in a bowl

Only waiting now for Time's Toll

(Chorus)

You don't cry

You don't feel

This second-hand life was never real

Fly away now to where we all go

A second chance

A change of heart

Where one life ends the other can start

Abandon the numbing darkness that you know

(Verse 2)

You're Talking But you

Are only talking to fools

Engaged they stare and drool

But minds stay empty

But here you find proof

To justify the days you go through

To step inside the shoes you want to

Begin to change the things you need to

(Chorus x 2)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:12:38 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Reach http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Plastic-World http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Plastic-World#comments
Ghosts

Of our pasts

Gather around

We're going to restore your towns

And live and die

With a fire inside

And escape these times

Of Plastic Lives

Ghosts

Of our pasts

Could you see?

This numbness creeping over me

With every new day

We were throwing away

So much more than

We ever would gain

A runaway train

A runaway train

Jewels of life in the world of old

Replaced by the shimmer of silver and gold

Do only as you're told

Don't break out of this mold

Trade all of your morality

For an awkward practicality

A new man-made reality

It seems to me the worst loss is

The one you never know you lose

Until pleasure is a memory too

And you don't know what to do

I guess I'll trade more morality

For a little bit of practicality

This new man-made reality

Is losing its appeal to me

Ghosts

Of our pasts

Gather around

We're going to restore your towns

And live and die

With a fire inside

And escape these times

Of Plastic Lives

Before we grow too old

I want to restore the world

And live and die with a fire inside

And escape these times

Of Plastic Lives]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:12:05 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Plastic-World http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Piercing-Her-Mind http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Piercing-Her-Mind#comments
(Verse 1)

Intoxicated,

Her head drowned itself in

The sweetness of better days.

Forces of nature

Rip away at here like

So many razors.

But this is life she says,

If we were perfect we'd be boring,

We'd be boring.

So let me fade into this patchwork,

Let me hide forever,

In my fear.

(Chorus)

A familiar calling;

A tender voice; the key to her cell

Pierced her minds eye,

And life was born.

But now she's drowning once again,

And she only feels what she cannot feel,

What she can no longer feel.

(Verse 2)

Into relative obscurity

She seems to fade away.

Amidst a crowded room,

All these hours slip into days

Her shining blue gaze

Meets my longing stare.

When time resumes,

I do not know her,

She's a stranger, live without her

Is not one I want,

But it's one I have.

(Chorus x 2)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:11:50 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Piercing-Her-Mind http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Out-of-Time http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Out-of-Time#comments
(Verse 1)

It's time we were happy

It's time they were screaming

It's time we were walking alone

It's time that we're losing

It's time that's still fleeting

It's time that we chase

And Time our memories erases

(Pre-Chorus)

But I know what to say

If I have

Time

Take it all away

I'm out of time

(Chorus)

Let beauty slip right through your fingers

Those who should love, would love,

Never now shall know

This heart it yearns to love

But now the same old heart

Is crying out in fear

(Pre-Chorus)

(Bridge)

I fear I'll never hear your screaming voice

Calling out my name

Living these parallel lives, we close our eyes

Forgetting hurt and pain

The rose among this flower bed I crave I want all of you I want all of you all

(Chorus x 2)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:11:28 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Out-of-Time http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Looking-Through http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Looking-Through#comments
(Verse 1)

Sunlight breaks over the moor

A shot rings out to beg for the start of yet another war

And to the victor goes this prize

Her words pierce through me, can you see the fear that's in his eyes?

(Pre-Chorus)

This girl could break a man apart

But now an anthem sounds for every broken heart

(Chorus)

Baby I see you

I see those eyes I stare through
They bring you out they do

You're living a lie but you don't have to

You cry at night but you don't have to

(Verse 2)

The truth it hides where you don't go

And songs of love bounce off of a cold and lonely soul

The world you crave is madness and we won't have this, we won't have this

All the children come outside and gather round and sing

Sha la la la la la la la la (Chorus x 2)]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:11:10 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Looking-Through http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Inside-of-the-Moment http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Inside-of-the-Moment#comments
(Verse 1)

These tired lifetimes retrace their steps

Where did this daydream shatter?

Weighted down by pressure's means to ends

I feel it again.

Heavy hearted, pain never felt so well

But pleasure's too far for calling

Wake me up before this sleep is too deep.

Hanging onto that reason isn't working out so well

And holding out for that feeling is a comfort too distant now

(Verse 2)

A tired old man retraces his steps

Where did we lose the tracking?

Breaking out is harder than you think.

And Last time we screamed until we could not breathe

And turned to others for understanding of

The beauty of sweet emotion.

Hanging onto that reason isn't working out so well

And holding out for that feeling is a comfort much too distant now

Hanging onto that reason isn't working out so well

Isn't working out so well…

(Chorus)

Inside of the Moment

I'm holding back for reasons I cannot explain

I only know this one expression

When life gets you down and the road is no longer up for grabs and you're but a grave

Let emotion guide you without question

(Bridge)

Through sadness and elation

Anger, fear, and inspiration

The most dreaded of emotion

Is far better than none at all]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 16:10:55 -0700 http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Inside-of-the-Moment http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Fallaway http://ACadenceParadigmACP.fuzz.com/blog/entry/Lyrics-Fallaway#comments
(Verse )

I awaken to no sight or sound.

My blindfold on; volume turned down.

Go through the motions, step outside and enjoy the day.

One day vacation; destination the perfect hideaway.

(Chorus)

She's falling away

Just for today

But this piece of mind

Sometimes you just have to take

I'm falling out of sight and mind

This life's too short not to spend the time

Away from the sound and fury of the outside.

(Verse)
