PHASED OUT
In the tunnel where you hide / These reflections play inside / Look what’s staring back at you / Nothing special, nothing new / In the corners of your mind / These excuses you will find / Nothing special, nothing new / Even ghosts abandon you / Make it go away / And you call this fate? / And you call this real life? / Even fortune tellers take their things inside / Phase me out / In the mirror of your past / Put your fist right through the glass / Nothing special, nothing new / Just broken pieces of you / And there’s nothing you can do / And you call this fate? / And you call this real life? / Even fortune tellers take their things inside / Phase me out / Just a copy of a theft / Nothing taken, nothing left / Make it go away / And you call this fate? / And you call this real life? / Even fortune tellers take their things inside / Phase me out

NOTHING TO SEE
Brother you were barely here / Now I watch you disappear / I feel my grip on certainty die / It all was a lie / How is it that you’re gone? / Someone I could rely on / Waking from this dream to a world of plastic empathy / Where everybody pretends there is nothing to see / Mother why is there no cure for feeling wounded and obscure? / I closed the door and silently cried / Still trying to hide / Father on the spiraling stair / Always gasping for more air / Nothing saved you from the greatest crime on the earth / Of death and birth / How is it that you’re gone? / Someone I could rely on / Waking from this dream to a world of plastic empathy / Where everybody pretends there is nothing to see / All gone away / Someone to rely on

YOU WILL BE GONE
The earth opens wide / And in you fall / Away from me / We’re miles beyond / The words you scrawl / The things that could be / Either way you will be gone / And I’m not understanding how to carry on / Somewhere out of sight / With weapons of blame / Of outrageous misfortune / I won’t be the same / Either way you will be gone / And I’m not understanding how to carry on

ETCHED ON STONE
The sun is fading / A habit of late / I’m out of time / All the pages that used to turn have left me blind / And Avalon has gone away / Is the future etched in stone? / Do we begin and end alone? / The things that seemed important now can wait / I lie awake night after night / And never get the answers right / A voice tells me what I have always known / You’re on your own / Imagination used to call the words to rhyme / Until the last breath passes on / You’re in my mind / and Avalon has gone away / Walk over broken glass to spend another day / Nothing makes sense / There’s got to be some other way / For just a moment more / No price I wouldn’t pay

MOTH
I know where you come from / I know where you’ve been / Beautiful butterfly / You always win / See how they watch you / See how they smile / They want to collect you / It’s me they revile / It’s so obvious / You have no shame / It’s so obvious / All fashion, all frame / It’s so obvious / Something to hold on to / Somewhere to belong / It’s just like a monarch / To string me along / You own the sunshine / I own the night / I make children scream / When they turn on the light / It’s so obvious / You have no shame / It’s so obvious / All fashion, all frame / I take the blame for us / Like a moth to a flame / It’s gone all wrong, it’s all gone wrong …

THESE EYES (I DON’T DARE)
I see the damage / Ruthless and savage / And wonder what happened to you / I see the wasteland / Smiling and suntanned / Scrolling off endlessly / These eyes that I dare not meet in dreams won’t look away / These eyes that I swear see right through me won’t look away / You pull the lever / We fall together / Drifting off endlessly / These eyes that I dare not meet in dreams won’t look away

REAL TO ME
I can fly in my mind / Carried softly away from my crime / I can fly / Feeling low / A dead wing in a murder of crows / Live for me / I was wrong / Forgive me now that I’m gone / So I stay high to survive / I stay high to survive / It’s all that keeps me alive / See things the way they should be / Nothing is real to me / It’s all that keeps me alive / So I stay high to survive / I can see your eyes lie / And when you blink at me I will know why / I can see fires rise / The glow is brightest right before it dies / It’s not me / I was wrong / Forgive me now that I’m gone / I stay high to survive / I stay high to survive / See things the way they should be / Nothing is real to me / It’s all that keeps me alive / So I stay high to survive / I stay high to survive / It’s all that keeps me alive

THE SETTING SUN
Will you dissolve completely when memories get buried alive? / When the evening comes to greet me will the things that I dreamed of survive? / These spirits cannot save me from the void that I stare inside / There’s no time left to borrow / Too late to hesitate / One day the fires will reach me / One day the waters will rise / There’s no time left to borrow / Too late to hesitate / These spirits cannot save me from the timeless void I stare inside / All these mistakes cannot teach me, teach me to hide / There’s no time left to borrow / Too late to hesitate / The setting sun will cast its shadow / Like it has so many times before / When all is lost the heartbeat slows and the breathing grows shallow / I always know and dread the cost / When all is lost / When all is lost
