Footfall 03:57
I wish it was simple, I wish I could feel alive Wish I had anything to cure this spite But here I am lost and fallen, and it’s all that I have I need to be timeless I need this state of change to never end And I can’t find the words to tell you that I’m trying Forever and always, even if I change And sometimes it feels like I can make no progress The time it crawls like ancient sunsets So far from view, and so far from home But I get the feeling that I'm not alone And now to fall in line, with such perfect timing As fate conspires, and sets the fires To lead away from darkened days As footfall takes us so far away And I’ll run on Believe me I know I was wrong My legs carry faster than my words can take me I know this might break me But if this is my only chance, then this is the end And I’ll run on Believe me I know I was wrong My legs carry faster than my words can take me I know this might break me But if this is my only chance, then this is the end

Destiny 02:51
Here I stand with the world I face I’ve been blessed with the mystery the few of us have found And I am humbled by the things I’ve seen In the sun, in the stars, on the ground we make our lives on I do my best just to appreciate This world owes me nothing and I owe it the world For it has given me the chance to be grateful and loved By those who keep my head on And I am humbled by the dreams I chase And to see the stars in outer space All the ways to breath familiar air And I want you to be there And all I want is someone to be there for me To fall in love and live forever happily To make a life, to take the things I make believe And turn them into destiny And I am humbled by the dreams I chase And to see the stars in outer space All the ways to breath familiar air And I want you to be there

Dear You, 04:00
I wrote you a letter, I wrote you the future So you would remember and not have excuses And now here you sit feeling lost in your thoughts On the verge of the brilliant, at the edge of the lost Someday…Oh, someday Oh you were naïve, overconfident Your insightful insanity paid off You’ve got to smile through disaster, never settle for the answers Remember what I wrote if you’re ever feeling lost So chase with everything you have You won’t get a second chance It’s ok to move too fast, to touch and go I know the good when I see it And I’m in it for the reasons And if you’re not a part of the long run, I have to let you go Remember: You’ll be beaten by sick, you’ll be beaten by faceless You’ll be bound until your broken for every word that’s spoken But you will rise, impossibly, now rise for everyone to see So chase with everything you have You won’t get a second chance It’s ok to move too fast, to touch and go I know the good when I see it And I’m in it for the reasons And if you’re not a part of the long run, I have to let you go So chase with everything you have You won’t get a second chance It’s ok to move too fast, to touch and go I know the good when I see it And I’m in it for the reasons And if you’re not a part of the long run, I have to let you go

And so we will fall, over and over and over and over again To die a thousand deaths Tired and worn, from the running and falling and chasing that we never win And it takes away our breath, again And it takes away our breath, again... The truth is far from perfect, the truth is I am tired The sad and sudden weight of the future hanging in the night And I feel my breath as it steadies, and I feel my stomach turn I wonder what you’re thinking, and if I'll ever learn And if I'll ever learn... And the shadows creep along And the stranger won't belong But I'm here, yeah I'm here And I swear I’ll make a change And it'll take your breath away That I’m here, yeah I’m here I should have listened closer, I should have listened hard To the angel on my shoulder, not the devil in my heart And I feel my pulse as it steadies, and I feel like it’s my turn And I am holding, and I am ready, ready to crash and burn And the shadows creep along And the stranger won't belong But I'm here, yeah I'm here And I swear I’ll make a change And it'll take your breath away That I’m here, yeah I’m here And the shadows creep along And the stranger won't belong But I'm here, yeah I'm here And I swear I’ll make a change And it'll take your breath away That I’m here, yeah I’m here

Segue 01:43
But if I could interrupt you, no I am not lost nor corrupted All I want, all I’m waiting for is for you to try To give a fuck, just for a second, to drop your walls and your weapons Or I will run, I will run, I will run into the night And you will never find me, never in your dreams am I hiding I am the ghost of a thought and I am everything you’re not And I can scream, and I can call out, I can crash and burn into fallout But I am here, and I survive, and it is crushing me
6.
What if we were trapped forever in routine? And the only thing we had was our wishes and our dreams Would you know where to begin? Or would you fall apart and scream? To be born once more again into this life you didn't mean to find here What if we could learn to live with everything in mind? Have vision, resolution, and the words and will to fight Where thought is not accepted as an ancient lost technique And the more we feel the edge approach the further we can see But now we're standing on the edge of the abyss Afraid to look, afraid to glance, afraid of this What if all these thoughts had found their way into your heart? Could darkness silence the spark? And baby, I know I’m not your saving grace I may not be the one for you today But maybe, if you feel it in your heart, maybe someday You’ll see, and I’ll be here, right here believe me Right on the edge where we belong Where the words are never done At the violent ends we’ve come to see Right where we went wrong At the place I had feared to come One more step, just one… But then you're gone But if I could interrupt you, no I am not lost nor corrupted All I want, and all I’m waiting for is for you, to try To give a fuck, just for a second, to drop your walls and your weapons Or I will run, I will run, I will run into the night And you will never find me, never in your dreams am I hiding I am the ghost of a thought and I am everything you’re not And I can scream, and I can call out, I can crash and burn into fallout But I am here, and I survived, and it is crushing me And baby, I know I’m not your saving grace I may not be the one for you today But maybe, if you feel it in your heart, maybe someday You’ll see, and I’ll be here, right here believe me Right on the edge where we belong Where the words are never done At the violent ends we’ve come to see Right where we went wrong At the place I had feared to come One more step, just one… But then you're gone
7.
I can’t help it that I try this hard And it kills me to believe that you have somehow now forgot It is my silly dream that I believe in true love And a life, and a laughter that you’re always thinking of And I miss you And I want nothing more than to live my whole life With someone who gives me the chance to be alive But people have become so lost and people have become so scared That they believe there is no good left in the world Because caution in love is the most dangerous type And it’s holding us back and it is holding you tight But if you can find it in you to believe you’re not alone Take a chance, please never let me go And I know that you’re careful and I know that you’re scared Because you’ve seen what lies can do to those you thought were always there But if you can find it in your heart, if you can find it in your soul Trust me, believe me, and you’ll know Because caution in love is the most dangerous type And it’s holding us back and it is holding you tight But if you can find it in you to believe you’re not alone Take a chance, please never let me go

And it's always don't jump, look before you leap But don't wait, a chance will always leave And don't try so hard cause god-forbid you're interested And it's always don't fall, because the climb always hard But it's better to have loved, than to have never lost And don't say so much because you might just say it all And if I could love you I would But the beauty of it is, is that we’re all misunderstood And I’ll tell you I’m there And I’m scared, yeah we’re scared And it’s never easy, the future is uncertain The past is never clear and the thoughts are now your burden But don’t worry now, you’re not really in control Because there’s people with worries just like you Who’ve been burned by the world, and even if you’re true You’ll have to pay for the mistakes that those have made And if I could love you I would But the beauty of it is, is that we’re all misunderstood And I’ll tell you I’m there And I’m scared, yeah we’re scared And if I could love you I would But the beauty of it is, is that we’re all misunderstood And I’ll tell you I’m there And I’m scared, yeah we’re scared

Evolve 05:55
I have this urge that beckons free A caged beast, that paces anxiously Steady, relentless and calm But not for long… No, not for long Do you get the sense, you were meant for something? That deep within you something's wrong And when it’s unleashed, it will blow everyone away And everything will change, if you just hold on This is my hope without fear I’m a failure I’ll try or will die if I don’t Forget what they taught you, forget what they want Remember you only live once Change, do it now don’t give up Evolve This is my hope without fear I’m a failure I’ll try or will die if I don’t Forget what they taught you, forget what they want Remember you only live once Change, do it now don’t give up Evolve

The Fight 06:05
It pulls, it hurts, it begs me, and begs me… And I know it’s worth betrays me And though the fight seems wasted Deep within I face it, I chase it And yes I struggle, yes I fought for every inch I’ve ever gained The back and forth is just enough to make me feel like I’m insane I fight for truth, I fight for love, and for the chance to be reborn I fight for meaning, and I’ve got more than you could ever bargain for And yes I’m pulled, yes I’m tempted, yeah I want it more and more But this humble quest I’ve started leads to worlds I can’t ignore Because I’ve seen it, because I felt it, because I know that it exists Because it’s written through the ages and worth every second lived And we go forward marching to the beat Thunder made by our own feet But now’s the struggle, now’s the fight we’ve all been waiting for Forward on toward the sound Burning bridges to the ground Here’s the struggle, here’s the fight we’ve all been waiting for So hold close the words you shouldn’t let go Cause if you don’t they’re only going to pull you down So hold tight the thoughts you wouldn’t let them Take right from your hands, yeah when they come around And we go forward marching to the beat Thunder made by our own feet But now’s the struggle, now’s the fight we’ve all been waiting for Forward on toward the sound Burning bridges to the ground Here’s the struggle, here’s the fight we’ve all been waiting for
11.
I hear you renegade, in the dark, as you sneak up As thunder rolls, and rain falls cold on your heart Against the wind that tears through skin And eyes turn skyward for anything But now things have changed, I feel your pain And restless days will lead the way home Now run for your life, for your love For everything you’ve been dreaming of In this world we live once, and we try And everything that you leave behind becomes ours to share Please take great care, because the stories that surround us become echoes of our past If we can last, if we can live, if we can give… I hear you renegade, in the dark, as you sneak up As thunder rolls and rain falls cold Restless days will lead the way home

Of Dreams 06:36
What happened to the hope, the love, the heroes and the lovers? The search for truth and the struggle for each other? The things we only mention in our hours of invention I hope you find the truth to life in searching for your meaning Escape the lies the sorrow and the cheating All we have to do is have the best time of our lives It’s our time I hope the world is good to you And everywhere you travel you find the strength to endure every battle And more than anything I hope you find the love you seek I pray it sweeps you off your feet and takes you for a whirl And if it isn’t me, I hope you see the world through the eyes of those who love you And may they never lie or hurt you And it is our right to be alive To live and love and try To fail and to learn And live the life you earn It is our grand experiment To do with what we can The thrill of never knowing Forever we are growing And that’s life And it is our right to be alive To live and love and try To fail and to learn And live the life you earn It is our grand experiment To do with what we can The thrill of never knowing Forever we are growing And that’s life

These are words that you will never hear This melody will reach you to dance upon your ears But meaning becomes lost within the chance to take a chance The chance becomes the urge to run while never looking back And so I sing to you, though you won't know And in this light I stand alone And if the day will ever come I swear that I will find you, and together we will run I'm split between the best of both the worlds that I can see I've always been the type to run, but want so bad to keep Safe and sound with someone else, who I can call my own But I'm born to run, so my "I love you’s" never part my tongue And so I sing to you, though you won't know And in this light I stand alone And if the day will ever come I swear that I will find you, and together we will run I've done my best, kept to myself, but the urge is never gone I'll keep you safe the best I can by writing you this song So I will know that you have heard the things within my heart While giving me the chance to chase this never-ending art And so I sing to you, though you won't know And in this light I stand alone And if the day will ever come I swear that I will find you, and together we will run And together we will run
