Album Lyrics
1. Untethered Angel
You’ve built this world
around you, your universe.
In spite of best intentions
things could not be worse.
Chaos and fear have left
you hanging by a thread,
as you argue with the
voice inside your head.
Untethered Angel
falling into darkness,
don’t be afraid of letting go.
Giving up yourself will set you free!
Misgiving and dismay,
nightmares and wasted days.
Can’t live your life this way,
something needs to change.
Cold feet and second thoughts,
entangled, tied in knots.
Avoidance at all costs,
a painful thing to watch.
Fear can live inside you,
push you to the edge.
Face the fear within you,
wake up from the dead.
Untethered Angel
falling into darkness,
don’t be afraid of letting go.
Giving up yourself will set you free!
Set you free!
Untethered Angel
falling into darkness,
don’t be afraid of letting go.
Open your heart, be set free!
2. Paralyzed
The anger, the pressure!
You’re choking down your
words again, feel the
nerves set in.
Unspoken frustration!
They see right through you,
paper thin like the
ghost within.
A heart that feels no pain,
addicted to the game.
Breaking beneath the strain,
I am paralyzed.
The stare of a stranger is
like a wound that bleeds again,
silent as the dead.
The victim, the martyr!
like Daniel in the Lion’s Den,
time and time again.
A heart that feels no pain,
addicted to the game.
Breaking beneath the strain,
I am paralyzed.
I am paralyzed!
A heart that feels no pain,
addicted to the game.
Relentless mental drain,
what do you stand to gain?
Viewing life through such
a narrow, fractured lens will
ensure you end up on the losing end,
breaking beneath the strain.
I am paralyzed…
3. Fall into the Light
Written on the water,
memories dissipate.
Eyes begin to open,
darkness drifts away.
Time and space like roses
whose petals drop and fade,
and fall into the light
as if dream of yesterday.
To much love is not enough for us,
I was once too blind to see.
There is nothing sacred,
only Heaven knows.
So turn towards the sun
and look into your soul.
Too much love is not enough for us,
I was once too blind to see.
Too much hope will never be enough,
it’s become so clear to me.
Too much love is not enough for us,
I was once too blind to see.
Too much hope will never be enough,
the truth is clear to me.
4. Barstool Warrior
In a dark and lonely corner
of a time-worn dockside inn
sits the local barstool warrior,
talking to his gin.
Tracing past decisions
he motions for a shot.
Is he doomed to be a man
this world forgot?
Just a prisoner of
the monster on his back.
Call it bad luck, call it fate,
call it stuck here the rest of my days.
Serves me right, what went wrong,
and where do I belong?
In the glow of flashing lights
on the shoulder of the road,
clutching at the bruises on her skin.
She tries to signal danger
with anguish in her eyes.
Will he see the world of pain
she’s in, or is it too late?
Was it bad luck, was it fate,
or a past that she couldn’t escape?
It’s not right, something’s wrong,
just where do I belong?
Promises made, crying in vain,
all empty, never accepting the blame,
and not letting go of the shame.
A river of tears as months turn to years,
all wasted on someone not willing to change.
Now only a shadow remains!
No one can save you,
and there’s no one to save.
It has been written you will become all
you think, all you feel, all you dream
Now I’m cutting the anchor
away and I won’t look back,
I’m starting a new life today.
Now I see where I belong!
5. Room 137
Someone, someone is trying
to tell him something.
Will he listen,
should he listen?
Someone, someone is dying
to find out something.
Will he reason,
what is the reason?
Do you see it
there on the door?
Death is coming,
Life nevermore.
Obsession drives me,
clouding my mind.
What’s the message,
am I running out of time?
Someone, someone is trying,
in search of something.
Death by numbers,
getting closer.
Someone, someone is dying
to know the answer.
the key to Heaven, 137!
Do you see it
there on the door?
Death is coming,
Life nevermore.
Obsession drives me,
clouding my mind.
What’s the message,
am I running out of time?
Take me to the other side,
show me what I cannot find.
Never-ending number line,
hidden by design.
I can see it
here on the door,
one-three-seven
forevermore.
Between dimensions,
the boundary line!
One-three-seven,
I am running out of time.
Take me to the other side,
show me what I cannot find.
Never-ending number line!
Take me to the other side,
show me what I cannot find.
Never-ending number line!
Take me to the other side,
show me what I cannot find.
Never-ending number line,
let me see before I die.
6. S2N
Are we paying attention,
or we are drifting?
Too much negative action,
not enough positive reaction.
What’s the state of humanity,
where’s the peace and the harmony?
Free the signal, your inner voice.
Time to trascend, block out the noise.
Signal to noise
becomes the answer,
the world keeps turning
as we latch on to the wheel.
Have you heard the news,
a surging sea of circumstance.
Pain, starvation, war, abuse,
sterile gloves hide dirty hands.
Shocking truth, climate change,
floods and fires, hurricanes,
overdose, suicide, innocent die.
Fear and race, endless lies,
sex and faith, terrorize,
drugs and guns taking lives,
innocent die.
Signal to noise
becomes the answer,
the world keeps turning
as we latch on to the wheel.
Signal to noise
defines the reason,
the world keeps turning
as we latch on to the wheel.
Our wounds begin to heal!
Signal to noise
becomes the answer,
the world keeps turning
as we latch on to the wheel.
Signal to noise
defines the reason,
the world keeps turning
as we latch on to the wheel.
Our wounds begin to heal!
The chatter disappears and
the message is revealed.
7. At Wit’s End
Let me help you, how much
longer until you realize?
You’re getting worse,
it’s killing you inside.
I can’t break through!
Feel you have to face
this on your own, want
to be left alone.
Don’t leave me now,
don’t leave me now.
I know that it’s
tearing you apart!
Don’t leave me now,
don’t leave me now.
Come alive!
You feel I’m asking too
much of you, but can’t let go.
Fear breeds the hate and your
apathy, empty and hollow.
You lost your faith,
there’s no getting through.
Why shut me out?
Frantic, disturbed,
filled with misery,
can’t figure it out.
Sleepless, worse for wear,
staring at the ceiling.
Numb, sedated, intoxicated!
Deafening, deafening,
shut it out, shut it out!
Burning, burning,
no way out, no way out!
Don’t leave me now,
don’t leave me now.
I know that it’s
tearing you apart!
Don’t leave me now,
don’t leave me now.
Come alive!
Asked me to listen,
can’t go on and face another day.
I lied, not admitting
what I lost is still in you.
Something’s missing,
you see darkness in my eyes.
Maculate, there is no cure.
Playing over,
stop pretending,
warped inside its
never ending tide.
Don’t leave me now…
8. Out of Reach
There’s something about
this girl, some kind of magic,
swear she cast a spell on me!
Not the first time,
might be the last.
Can’t let this moment
slip away!
Try to find the words,
none sit right with me,
Air of confidence but
I can barely breath.
She’s without a care,
electrified and held there.
A thousand volts igniting me!
Her waves crash over me,
far below, out of reach.
The undertow, my reverie!
Sadness in her smile.
Love, it’s been a while.
Near but far away,
she chases it each day.
A promises to come back!
All the while still waiting,
seems it lost its way.
Out of reach,
just too hard to reach.
You’re letting your
life slip away!
Out of reach,
yeah it’s hard to reach.
There’s another day!
Although you’re
hurting and afraid
you’re stronger
than yesterday.
9. Pale Blue Dot
So far away from home,
beyond a distant reach
faint whispers from the edge
returning piece by piece.
A lonely point of light
captured in a final glance,
a solitary hint of life
discovered if by chance.
God creators, dream destroyers,
spineless cowards, and fearless warriors.
Hopeful children, mothers and fathers.
Our blood-filled rivers fueled by hate,
we worship heroes, kings and saints.
But who’s out there to save
us from ourselves?
All you will ever know,
all life that ever was,
all you despise or love
living out their lives.
This isolated speck hurling
through the cosmic dark,
would seem to go astray
if we were washed away.
God creators, dream destroyers,
knowledge seekers, and bold explorers.
Hopeful children, mothers and fathers.
All on this place we call our home,
adrift in space we’re on our own.
But who’s out there to save
us from ourselves?
