Astro Not 03:12
He's got a gift for mathematics and a subscription to "Space Magazine" when his young eyes glance the moon they get wet, occationally His family's so supportive which makes everything blurry friendly words are hard to trust when this Earth feels imaginary Non the less he's happy New diploma in his hand that pretty speech was the last time he recalls feeling ambition Finds a spot in Texas waits the space station to call He refuses to make new friends since he's destined for the stars He says soon I will get to go to outer space Nobody rings his doorbell though he almost hears it once or twice any person breathing that much silence will forget their own voice Magazines are piling on the stoop by the telescope He can't find time for recreation between the work and the alcohol abuse but there's still the smallest whisper he can't push away the question that supersedes all the bullshit filling his days He asks "when will I get to go to outer space?"

Dayze 03:40
My fingers don't move like they used to My back don't hold quite like it should and the days rush by like waves washing me up If things keep going like they're going I'd better square up in my trade Cause no one gives a rip for Clumsy carpenter calluses strumming strings Man these days rush by and they're leaving me behind Maybe I've lost my concentration Like how I zone on familiar streets and my dreams roll by like a train keeping me awake I used to make this box my orchestra Now I struggle for each note If there was a time for quiting Any moment now would be close enough Man these days rush by and they're leaving me behind

Give me a moment without searching give me a moment without fear a holiday from circumstances when my destiny is right here and right now (now you can, now you must) It's time, It's time that makes us strong It's time, it's time gets us along It's time, It's time to feel it strong echoing (now you can, now you must) Let me trust the dead leafs falling let it's wind fill up my sails let me touch it but without grasping and be content in all my fears but not stay down It's time, It's time that makes us strong It's time, it's time gets us along It's time, It's time to feel it strong It's time, it's time to get along without knowing without understanding without searching without being searched without memorizing without being memorized (now you can, now you must)

Go on and shed that shell that's made you who you are Go on and shed that shell that's made you who you are You can get it on back, if you happen to get off track Don't you wanna know what it feels like? Don't you wanna know what it tastes like? You can get it on back, get it on back when you get off track But now, just take a second Don't you wanna know what it feels like? Don't you wanna know what it tastes like? Go on and shed that shell that's made you who you are Go on and shed that shell that's made you who you are Cause it goes deeper, it goes on, if you choose not to stop (take it on back take it on back if you get lost..)

Boy, I was 04:01
"I felt hope I felt love I felt peace like I belong", Sang The-boy-I-was The wedding feast is dear to me but it's not ready so hold on steady and make believe with fog machines Here's your fun, here's your music welcome home to your community (all packaged and ready) You're reputation is a comfortable home shake off your graveyard skin sing it straight from your heart You're born again to be, to be to be You're born again to live Brother I love you, I'll save you if I can Brother I love you, I'll kill you if I must I'm under the gun Your reputation is a comfortable home shake off your graveyard skin sing it straight from your heart You're born again to be, to be to be You're born again to live, so live

We concluded that nothing matters that we'd all be dead in a little while will the sun burn up this plastic earth? or will we tear it apart first? and if we lived full lives we'd be forced to accept our compromising hearts ..which is many parts ..but we're all trying hard Electric world snuffed out my voice Politics teach us to think in multiple choice A damn algorithm decides what I see You can hit like, or you can hit share if you agree We're drawing lines for our protection but wifi keeps us company in isolation But the moon can't glow the sun can't shine your heart cant fit through an 8-bit ethernet wire ..tho we're trying really hard And in the between we have today feeling pressure to make some kind of change empathize unto death with the BBC No strength for neighbors across the street You try to find some solace in this world of violence without violating the conscience of populations drop the act nobody gives a damn either way

Dont get sad since I am gone Don't get mad, I still love you all I'll be back, but not by my name listen how, cause brother I've changed it's like how The Turf Club is now run by First Avenue so like Palmers Saloon I'm closing down and coming out December marks one year since I took off to face my fears and you kept me in your contact list would you keep me if I came back and said That I was a lie but now I'm alive That's what I said The old me is dead I can no longer say what you want now that I've got my own feelings in my heart No, it's not easy to say But I gave up my choice, I'm coming out this way Now I'm alive!

Tomorrowland 02:15
Having goals is quite easy when you keep them in tomorrow land One day later, I'll quit my vices I'll grow up and act like a grown man Step by step, and day by day dreams are getting older, their edges getting frayed sitting quiet in tomorrowland I nudge em back another day with the knuckles on my hand having hopes makes you lonely when they're stuck in tomorrowland Don't get shaped by the chasing theres plenty in today that you'd be missing Step the step, and seize the day This world is unfolding like an epic play Focus your mind like the ticking clock Caress every moment like the wind and the tree tops Caress every moment like the wind and the tree tops Caress every moment like the wind and the tree tops

I got sad cause my belly was empty I got sad cause I broke my fast I got sad cause I really wanted a cigarette I got sad cause I bought another back That boy's sad cause his parents are wealthy that boy's sad cause his struggles are few that boy's sad cause of high expectations that boy's sad cause there's not a lot to do Don't get sad He smiles on you Don't get sad He's shaping you Don't get sad you are, that you are Don't get sad your story is His story The Buddha's always happy if he's throwing up booze The Buddha's always happy if his kids are on the loose The Buddha's always happy if his rent's past due The Buddha's always happy cause every day is new Don't get sad He smiles on you Don't get sad He's shaping you Don't get sad you are, that you are Don't get sad your story is His story

I'm living out my pastors dreams, all out of breath they call it laying on down, but it's pretty far from rest "My thoughts, they push and pull me", said I in distress Maybe cause I've been spending my first 25 years jumping between my one and two steps (talking about walks of life) But you've held me down and you've held me up I know that I contain the world, cause it's you filling my cup You've held me dear, and you've held me free You've given me everything I've needed with ease Somehow I know I'll make it through all of my catastrophes
