Arrow One

Arrow One, space begun
Shooting straight toward the sun
Where it goes no one knows
On the deck or down below
Here we stand, no command
Blind we walk through arid land
Face the heat, can’t retreat
Battle tested and we got beat
Nowhere to hide
We must decide
A killer in the mind
Leaving all that’s left behind
No more sorrows, no remorse
Taking everything by force
Life outside already died
Left to rot, somebody lied
Trust the man, trust the plan
Destiny will show its hand
Nowhere to hide
I must decide
Arrow One, room for none
Now we call this home
Land and rock are still in stock
But peace of mind has sold
I’ve killed before, what’s one more?
There the bodies lie
Then I found the same old ground
He knew, now so do I

Jeopardy

Trembling hands, wide open for the kill
The artist and the butcher perched high atop their hill
Inside the frozen jungle no more
Die
Why must I?
Crucified
For these lies
No
Die
Say goodbye
Don’t ask why
Will you cry?
Will he erase what’s mine?
Time and time and time again, death knocking at my door
Getting weaker, see the keeper, my body’s on the floor
The hangman’s so sure, he’s stacked the deck once more
Tried to find the key to time, not knowing what’s in store
Face the trap, no more turning back
Now who’s the executioner?

Texas Is Coming For You

Texas is coming for you
Texas is coming for you
Ranger man riding high
Take what’s yours until it’s yours
Step right up to the big sky
Never mind who came before
Texas is coming for you
Texas is coming for you
Ask anyone
While I load my gun
You better run, oh yeah
Ask anyone
Remember this, and those who passed
Fighting for what’s right and true
Striking down the iconoclast
That was me, but this is you
Texas is coming for you
Texas is coming for you
Capital lust, the will of the people
No one gets out alive
Living in the rearview mirror since 1835
Texas is coming for you
Texas is coming for you

From Inside
03:05

Winter comes for everyone
All that’s good will have its setting sun
But today is not the day
And tomorrow’s far away
Find your path and start to run
Chasing time, it ticks away right in my mind
I watch it fade then try to find
No more sighs, not gonna live my life to die
I got something else inside
Try so hard
You try so hard
Try so hard
You try so hard
Step outside this never-ending ride
Choose to find something wrong that feels so right

The Road

She never knew where it was, what she was looking for
Tried to find the right design behind each and every door
When she discovered what she sought, just too late in the game
That was when she knew that it would always end the same
Turn around, go where you like
You still will make it to the end
It’s not a line from left to the right
The road will always bend
He was sure he’d reached the end
I can’t say he was wrong
He never asked what’s coming next
Content to roll along
Why spend your time erasing what you have been working for?
Don’t wanna spend my days confused, out looking for so much more
Turn around, go where you like
No reason to pretend
It’s not a line from left to right
The road will bend

Early Warning

He just got hurt again
They say he’s done it to himself
The kid can’t seem to win
They say he’s done it to himself
He just got hit again
I watched him do it to himself
Nobody helps at all
Cry out
Reach out
It may not be as simple that he did it all himself
There’s always those that pave the way
He don’t say much but worries everybody else
Nobody wants to help at all
Reach out
Cry out
I’m sure he’ll grow out of this phase he’s living through
Anyway, aren’t we all the same?
Just like that rusty gate we look the other way
Then tell ourselves there’s someone else to blame
Cry out
Reach out
Cry out
Reach out

Grains Of Sand
04:48

So far away and yet we’ve seen them here before
Another generation claiming to know more
The grains of sand they fall, but not enough to fill one side
Left to wonder why we’re the ones that hide
Try climbing on, but the wheels keep spinnin’
Just move along, cause we ain’t winnin’
At times we fall in line, we think we’re getting more
And then we face reality, they close the door
The grains of sand they fall and still you see them on each side
Maybe the time will come we won’t be denied
I see the dawn of humanity, when all the hate washes over me
Is it just a dream?
Am I the answer to this plea?
If I reach out who’ll come with me?
I’ve gotta see
Try climbing on, but the wheels keep spinnin’
Just move along, cause we ain’t winnin’

Phase III
04:06
|

Far beyond the ice or sun
There exists another world
West of time, too late to see what’s real
Guarded by the doubt inside your mind
Only willing to relate to what’s behind
Nothing new
Side to side, progress gets hard to find
We never realize
One thing is known
We’re not alone
No
It was always in your head
But better left unsaid
You see and yet you’re blind
You’re not the only kind
I see it when I’m dreaming
Feel the heat coming from below
This place that I call home is nothing now
Instead of life or death for me
There’s something to behold
So much for all to see
But I’m alone
I survived, there’s nowhere left to hide
Beyond the waves I ride
I thought I knew
You probably thought so too
We never had a clue
