Have you ever known, a person to be A solid state radio, static free. Have you ever known me to, be that way A solid state radio static free... This compromise, of being alive Compromise, compromise, compromise... Blue, black back track Blue, black, black jack Blue, black big mac Blue, black, all that... Have you ever known, a person to walk Out of the static, and into the dark. Lost in the middle, with sights on the end We can all imagine, we all have swam... Blue, black back track Blue, black, black jack Blue, black big mac Blue, black, all that... Have you ever known me to, be that way A solid state radio, static free. Let me tell you, who I think I just might be, a mess in the middle, buzzing statically...

Slipping 03:02
Hello Hello, I'm here to start fresh, Take what i've been taught, and be the best. Versions of me, versions of you, Versions and visions and all that we choose... We all are someone Let go let go, I'm bound to get away, Free from myself, I named him misery. Come at me like a hurricane, Like the one to beat, Swinging for the cheeks. I looked in my mind, I could not define, if... We all our someone

Grown Up 02:34
It's hard to believe that it just goes by, You and me always working overtime. Hard to believe that I can't find a grip, We use to have ten boy, we let it slip... Slip... It's hard to believe that I imagined a drift, Stuck around to hold on, I never left. You and me brother, up to the top, Broke down the meaning, it cut just like a cloth... Cloth... It's hard to believe we built it brick by brick, Moving on a road, a heathered past. Hard to believe i'd take a blow to the face, But battlegrounds aren't monsters, just a strange little place... Place... Hard to believe...

Circumstances have driven me here, Learned another lesson I didn't know last year. I've tried so hard to control my thoughts out here, Always end up in a room out there... Lots to know Jumped through hoops just to follow my way, Worth it every time, my gut can stay. Similarities, the very nature of things, Red, blue, green, red, i've always liked it that way. Good to know An avalanche of hideous crimes, Covered in a cold chill, sounds like the times. Always thinking thoughts to help me see, What you were thinking, hoping, what you need. Might never know

Something sad, a cold cold chill, Crawling up my spine, a common pill. I had never seen, never could imagine, A whill and a frill, a common distraction. Something evil, barking down the door, Gusto in their pockets shouting, "we will prevail"... They will fail The catch is the secret, and the secrets hard to catch, A dollar for you thoughts, until there's little left. **********, a riddle to be cracked, Even though it points to the end, the stronger they will get, but... They will fail When it's all said and done, and the crumbles all that's left, What can be done but remember what the wise one said. "Go and do not surrender, go and do not give, Try to be brave a little longer, this is it my friends"... They will fail
7.
There goes the air out of my lungs, It happened again. There goes the air out of my lungs, Didn't think it would happen again. Find my feet once or twice, and then... Back over to this, Back over to this... I was feeling mighty flooded, In a way not unlike before. I was feeling mighty flooded Forced down onto the floor But I said I'd jump again... Back over to this, Back over to this... I am only hanging on now, I don't feel scared anymore. I am barely hanging on now, Ten down on walden's dance floor. An escapee is falling backwards... Backwards over to this, Back over to this, Back over to this...
