Tides 03:27
Several little notes are echoing from coast to coast Don't think I can't see that grin as the tide rolls in Seascapes become my every escape It's all I fucking know I will live for what we might find on the other side of the storm Can we handle more? I've never been more sure Don't matter the tides will push pull Push pull me away Pulling you in No, I won't let go remember the ocean view we so loved as we grew I will live for what we might find on the other side of the storm Can we handle more? I've never been more sure Don't matter the tides will push pull Push pull me away no, no, no, no, no It seems to me nobody lives for the day Feel, you've got to feel me pulling you in Pulling you in Like the tides Feel, you've got to feel me pulling you in Pulling you in With the tides No, I won't let go remember the ocean view we so loved as we grew And oh if you let go remember the tides will get me

Move Me 02:35
Look, touch, move me I'm not make believe But I can promise that I'll make you see Me more deeply if you weren't listening It's not my ego you're avoiding bruising I've always had one question Am I really destined? Failure falls on me naturally They can't hear me But i'm screaming Oh, I've torn my lungs enough just hold on tight even in spite It's gonna get more rough I need your love to destroy my doubt I never said I had it all figured out But I was given a choice and I've found my voice Failure falls on me naturally They can't hear me But i'm screaming I'm sorry x3 (I'm sorry)x3 I'll make it to you someday and we won't take demands from any man As I tighten the shutters I find i'm sitting here wondering What it takes to live up to earth's standards Move me Try to challenge my dreams Who are you to intrude? Tell me what it's like to believe We're dead right where our feet are placed Failure falls on me naturally They can't hear me But i'm screaming I'm sorry x3 (I'm sorry) x3 I'll make it to you someday

Where did the genuine go? What once was real is so painfully faux What doors were open were slammed to a close I'd rather throw my hands between then be the favorite you chose Today, you wake a sleeping giant Who know how to make you shake Your face, a waste Can't take my place Your back-fired desire has you Falling from grace A little salt for the wounds you get from hanging with snakes Let me into your mind for the first time I want you to know what it's like on the other side Can you hear our voices chime? (way-oh, way-oh) x2 That's the sound as your crown hits the ground But no, it can't always be bad For all this I have become Some idea of a better man If you love them let them go I never tried to run the show We look at life differently You don't know what it's like to Lead, with love A little salt for your wounds Let me into your mind for the first time I want you to know what it's like on the other side Can you hear our voices chime? (way-oh, way-oh) x2 That's the sound as your crown hits the ground Before you go would you read this note I made it just for you It's sure to save you time trying to read my mind This headspace isn't made for two We painted to sky blue Simply cause we wanted to Before the world became all about you It's easy to hate her it's just human nature I bet you think the plans you conjure look perfect on paper That pride pit you swallow won't make you less hollow Look back, no one follows I know I won't

Take this time To be honest with yourself Your future's scripture gathers dust with the shelves I keep telling myself to Come clean But when your dreams on a movie screen The flashing lights, the flickering proves that I've been blindly bonded to this Here's to the ones of the golden age When all I can do is pray to God I can carry the flame When will it be that I can finally Open up my body Take me, take me Show me the meaning These hands have made mistakes And I would like to think that's not the only way To learn and grow cause I'd like to create Rather than destroy all the things in my way I'm making progress with all of the things I fear We're making progress Our path is so clear Here's to the ones of the golden age When all I can do is pray to God I can carry the flame When will it be that I can finally Open up my body Take me, take me Show me the meaning If i've learned a thing I know you only live once and not one single person's beneath me All I want is to believe there's unity But if we're all on the same level who will rescue me? I've seen more faces buried in hands than I can count We're always searching for some meaning We're down but not out The more that I knew you, the more I looked up to you Now I'm finally beginning to Pull Together Here's to the ones of the golden age When all I can do is pray to God I can carry the flame When will it be that I can finally Open up my body Take me, take me Show me the meaning

Heights 04:03
I've never felt so light on my feet Honestly, I wouldn't lie to you But if you leave yourself behind again I won't cry for you (I've reached new heights) The first try is the best try So watch me and you'll see history My war cry cracks the sky The clouds open up pouring rain Pouring rain I made a promise to myself from the start I would always keep the words I wrote about my family closest This is my melody, this is my heart The bonds that I have made are my best works of art (We've reached new heights) The first try is the best try So watch me and you'll see history My war cry cracks the sky The clouds open up pouring rain Pouring rain Pray for me just a little if you please I am a shy boy growing up and taking the stage If you have the nerve to hold me down This young lion will break out of his cage on you The first try is the best try So watch me and you'll see history My war cry cracks the sky The clouds open up pouring rain Pouring rain
