1.
End of the Line 04:07
lyrics
Betrayal it makes you bleed Wounds that split at the seams Forgiveness it’s not so clean But I’m headed for So much more And I’m pretty sure It’s time to leave Some day I’ll find my peace But these days I want to breathe in the streets Life is an open road And I’m moving on Breathing hard Taking in the world Leaving gives me relief Maybe I’ll find a faith I can believe I'll like the change of scene And I'll find my way And I'll learn the trade Become remade In the city
2.
Walls and Ceilings 03:54
lyrics
Hello old friend You say as it begins again Oh not this time Your fighting with yourself again It shivers down your spine It's dripping through your skull You pray it's the final time You let the fear take hold Hello again It greets you as it crawls the walls When will it end You swear you'll rip this demon's eyes out Stumble through the halls As it's black goo drips from ceilings tall You're losing hold again Stay grounded in Where you are Today you win You'll stare it in the eyes You're no one's fool Don't believe the lies Well I know you're not blind So stare it in those empty hollow eyes

Poetry In Sound 01:28

Appalachian Mts. 04:49
lyrics
Driving through the mountains Staring at the pines In the sunlit beauty Can see the divine An ocean of salt Shells become sand Everything rots Eaten by the land The sun it rises orange gold Above the foggy land Shadows unfold You can't escape beauty You can't escape my Love A Mountains an empire Marred by men with money Burned for the industry Till there's None
5.
Get Out 03:31
lyrics
Can you get out of your heart Can you get out of your mind Can you get out of your stuff Can you get out of your life Can get out And see the world Can you love more Than just yourself Can you stretch past A beam of light Can you go deeper than the ocean Can you be more than just a man Can you become a grain of sand

Down By the Sea Engines 04:36
lyrics
Down, down by the engines I hear a voice singin’ to me Down, down by the water Where the waves scream at me There, there at the corner They’re gonna try to drown me Here, here at the ocean I lay it all at your feet But fears, fears they are coming They’re coming up, to my knees The end, the engines of war They’re gearing up to be set free All hell, is coming after me Can, I keep my head above water Or will they smother me Run, running’s no way To live a life, set free Shore, I need the shoreline That’s all I got to believe Down, by the engines Down, by the engines Down by the thundering engines Can I believe
