Left Behind

Holding on to something that will never come back
Your childhood’s gone and we’re moving
Every moment will pass
And the dream you sold to pay for some romantic affair
Was the lie you told yourself when no one else was there
God knows all of the roads I’ve travelled
Lying lowly beneath the shadows
All the time wishing I was giving more…
More
You gotta give more
You gotta give more
To keep this dream alive
You gotta give more
You gotta give more
So we aren’t left behind
So surreal
This kaleidoscoped reality
Wasted years
Trying to be something I’m not
Sick and tired of this mask I’m wearing
Tied and bound to a cross I’m bearing
All the time wishing I was giving more…
More
You gotta give more
You gotta give more
To keep this dream alive
You gotta give more
You gotta give more
So we aren’t left behind

Crystal Ships

I’ve been living in the same dream
I’ve got every one of your moves down
Time slipped from your hour glass
So I’m laying all the memories out
We’re dreamers, trailblazer keepers
Who think they know it all
We were sailing by the lonely street lights
Never thought we’d fall
In my darkest days I’m falling down
Give me wings to fly this cold heart out
Sometimes I get this feeling, it comes and goes
Wonder what my life would be with you here but I’ll never know
Cause it’s cold on the outside
I’ll spend my whole life waiting for one more chance
My arms are reaching to hold you and join in the dance
Or are we crystal ships just passing by?
So I’m hanging to a night scene
In the town that we both carved out
Traced our idols from the big screen
But now the picture’s losing sound
Oh your voice fills my head
Can you tell me where you’ve run
Cause the lonely street lights hold no answers
On what this world’s become without you
Running every risk to claim ourselves
Taking chances like nobody else
Sometimes I get this feeling, it comes and goes
Wonder what my life would be with you here but I’ll never know
Cause it’s cold on the outside
I’ll spend my whole life waiting for one more chance
My arms are reaching to hold you and join in the dance
Or are we crystal ships just passing by?

Calling from a distance
I hear your voice again
All the signs are pointing to
What I don’t understand
Are you now the kiss of life hiding in the dark
Cause every time I’ve reached alone
Feels like I’m missing every mark
I’ll take a chance tonight
Another roll of the dice
I can’t lose with you…
High… But you’re falling like the rain
Blinded by illusion, but you do it all over again
High… You know it’s just a game
Not looking for forever
Just a chance to start again
They say I’m out of action
Losing all control
I’m keeping count of every move
In a city I call home
You never gave a warning
Like an arrow tears the sky
Bring me to my senses cause tomorrows open wide
I feel more alive than I ever did in time
I can’t lose with you
High… But you’re falling like the rain
Blinded by illusion, but you do it all over again
High… You know it’s just a game
Not looking for forever
I just wanna start over again

Rain

I’ve got to get out
This city’s like a graveyard pulling me down
I scream and I shout
But no one hears the words that I’m trying to say
I’ve been feeling for a while like I don’t belong
Been tryin to get it right but so far I’ve been wrong
And even though I’m weak I’ve been trying to be strong
For too long, too long, too long, too long…
These are the days when the rain pours down
You’re never sure if you’re lost or found
If I could be someone else for a day
Maybe I’d find my way back home
I’ll pretend that I’m lost
On the tail of an Atlantic breeze
I’ll be the man that I want
The kind that writes his own philosophies
You know it’s funny how we strive for a lifetime
Never knowing what it is that can satisfy
It’s the only thought that fills a one track mind
To keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on…
These are the days when the rain pours down
You’re never sure if you’re lost or found
If I could be someone else for a day
Maybe I’d find my way back home
These are the days when the rain pours down
Thirty years caught in a border town
So take a chance and step out
Maybe we’ll find a way back home

I’m in the dark all alone
Devoid surrounding me
I hear your voice in muffled tones
I’m reaching to you, see me
I feel your heat, your electricity
Digital love, your source code is holding me
And some say this ain’t real
But how do they know what we feel?
You don’t need to explain and neither do I
Cause with you by my side now, now I’m alive
Out here we stand, two of a kind
We’ll take on every leap, pave the lines
They’re shutting down the sun on young lovers dream
So we lit up on our own for this land to see
They tried to shake us, to separate us
Why don’t those haters see that they can’t break us?
Some say this ain’t real
But how do they know what we feel?
You don’t need to explain and neither do I
Cause with you by my side now, now I’m alive

Push It To The Limit
03:50

Working for this town
A stranger to myself
He's waiting for the showdown
He took a chance like nobody else
Down by the harbour
He works the five day line
Holding to your Daddy's words
"Never lose what's in your sight"
It don't matter what they say
There ain't no price on tryin' to change
Grabbing hands just want a taste
Of everything you work for
Push it to the limit
Gonna take what's mine
Push it to the limit
Cause you're the only thing on my mind
Dawn upon wasteland
Now in my rear view sight
Got a ticket to the border
I don't know where I'll land tonight
Over the Peace Bridge coasting
I'm chasing Liberty's light
Don't give in, give it all you've got
I've taken measures
and laid my master plan
Surfed every channel
and mapped the desert sands
With an unrelenting smile I spin
Upon the wheels of chance
Never lost what's in my sight

American Dream

I'm a head of over thinking
Hanging to a thinning thread
I’ve been searching in the rubble
For the pieces of a dream I still have
With every, televised distraction
Can’t shake what’s in my sights
And I’m 15 going on 35 and forever be
the boy from high school in the back of my mind
Woah American dream
Blinded by the city lights shining on me
Woah American Dream
You’re everything I wanted and all I want to see
With all these things I see
In my American Dream
My American dream
