I hear the sun rise everyday the sun tastes brighter I can see the figures dance Every night the silhouettes fade Seeing the fantasy Reading time from a face Together my love, we drift into the night I feel the moon set every way the time slips by I can sense the moon cry every time he has to leave Seeing the fantasy Reading time from a face Together my love, we drift into the night

Lady raven hair bring me down to the river where I was found The river runs forever emerald trees growing together Sister Brittany lay me down In the town where I was bound The river runs forever emerald trees growing together I've been here long enough For you For you

Multi-colored wind flying through my eyes it goes through my soul Yellow-green diamonds under my fingers Swirling colors in my mind makes the people hard to find It's so peaceful Swirling colors in my mind makes the people hard to find Hazy swirls of nothing drift around my eyes Try to reach the sky Now is forever, under my finger Swirling colors in my mind makes the people hard to find It's so peaceful Swirling colors in my mind makes the people hard to find We all need love Try to touch the ground It makes me look at my life Swirling colors in my mind makes the people hard to find It's so peaceful Swirling colors in my mind makes the people hard to find It's so peaceful It's so peaceful

Rising over the water Floating high in the sky What can we do before we're gone? What can we do before we're gone? Darkness engulfs the land Self-made heaven and hell What can we do before we're gone? What can we do before we're gone?

Ghost World 03:14
Here I am forever trapped inside In the darkness of your mind This is not my world This is your world Here I am waiting in the dark Taking flight in the turn of your mind This is not my world This is your world Falling, falling, falling falling inside we go nothing, nothing, nothing is what I know deep down, deep down, deep down here I grow Falling, falling, falling falling inside we go nothing, nothing, nothing is what I know

Drift On 03:21
Fall into her eyes the spirals are so wise For tonight We're all gonna fly For tonight We're all gonna fly Drift into space the skeletons dance on her face For tonight We're all gonna fly For tonight We're all gonna fly Drift on, drift on baby drift on, drift on baby

Hold On Now 02:26
Hold on now cuz here we come Hold on now cuz there you go Hold on now You got me holding on for life You got me holding on for life

Crimson lips and cherry wine leaving dreams in my mind The familiar charm of her kind leaving dreams in my mind His arms around me, a forgotten time So tired of hearing that same old line Don't think we'll see the dawn When the sun rises we'll be gone The darkness seems to hang on I love you with a tear drop well reflecting jumping flames of hell The pearls in your deep heart shine leaving dreams in my mind Autumn, winter, the moon and sun I am one The open casket where love lies and pride dies Don't think we'll see the dawn The sun rises and we'll be gone The darkness seems to hang on Don't think we'll see the dawn When the sun rises we'll be gone The darkness seems to hang on

Falling 02:55
Weighing down on my mind its too late Draggin' up my soul its too late Never knew we'd be here seeing life like a dream Never knew you'd be here taking me through the game I'm falling, falling over you I'm drowning, the walls all fall away Bringing up my soul is your love flying up to the sky is my head Never knew we'd be here seeing life like a dream Never knew you would be here taking me through the game Cuz I'm falling, falling over you I'm drowning, the walls all fall away I'm drowning, the walls all fall away I'm falling, falling over you

She walks with me until dawn's early light She wants only me till the leaves whisper goodbye It's a long winter when she is gone It's a cold time until she comes around She brightens my world In the cold light I feel her love We fly on a cloud the wind in our face It's a long winter when she is gone It's a cold time until she comes around She brightens my world

Twas on the field of Antietam where many the soldier fell is where occurred the story for which to you I tell The dead lay all around me, together we all lay for we had had a fearful fight upon the hill that day And as I lay there musing upon the damp cold ground my knapsack for a pillow my blankets wrapped around And as I lay there musing I heard a bitter cry "Lord save me and take me home to die... I thought the boy who shot me had a familiar face but in the battle's fury was difficult to trace I thought it was my brother if him I could see I'd kiss him and forgive him and lay me down to lie" I quickly ran unto him and heard his story 'o it was my long lost brother who lay in his gore And as I spoke of loved ones that we had left behind he whispered "my dear brother I can die now" Then quickly as a slumbering babe his eyelids closed and I saw him sink with shortening breath to death's long repose and with many tears and sad farewell I scooped a narrow grave and there he sleeps beneath the sod by Antietam's waves

The Trip 02:26
Outside my house is a new dawn Feel the time slip by, it's as good as gone The sphere goes round We're up and down It's the only trip Inside my heart is a new light See the day go on, it's as good as gone The sphere goes round We're up and down It''s the only trip The sphere goes round We're up and down The sphere goes round We're up and down
