1.Opium Blues
Lyricist：Robert Krueger, Anthony Ruland, Eric Sturgeon, John Van
Deusen
Nice suits and black shoes, everyone is crying
Now I think it's my time to slip away, how I loathe this feeling
On top of all the dying I think I need a new job, running out of
money
And my mom just phoned about the news
It always seems that just as I
Build the strength enough to climb and fight
The trees they grow in and block my sight
And now I'm stuck here with my darkest inner thoughts
I pleaded and prayed to you to come and take away
The voices and the choices that are bound to tear me limb from
limb
They told me that you hear in some other way but if the answer
is unknown
Then why should I believe them when they say
That you're up there and you honestly do care？
Everyone is singing now about the God, the God of love
But I don't feel it in my heart right now
The comforting reassurance of a cause but I want to believe
It always seems that just as I
Build the strength enough to climb and fight
The trees they grow in and block my sight
And now I'm stuck here with my darkest inner thoughts
I pleaded and prayed to you to come and take away
The voices and the choices that are bound to tear me limb from
limb
They told me that you hear in some other way but if the answer
is unknown
Then why should I believe them when they say
That you're up there and you honestly do care？
Oh, the opium blues inside my veins
I've got the chemicals inside my head to blame
The drugs do what the friends cannot
Oh, I think it's my time to slip away, how I love this feeling
2.Nuclear Winter
Lyricist：Robert Krueger, Anthony Ruland, Eric Sturgeon, John Van
Deusen
Now we're leaving, father says
Our world's falling through and the fire spreads quickly
All I hear, all I know is the bombs and the screams
That haunt the sky as their ships sail on high
I fear to leave this behind
Escaping, running, pulling away
Into our atmosphere towards freedom
They've destroyed all we've known
Burned down our home, we must find another haven
Soldiers, disappear through the atmosphere
There she goes like a marble falling
From my weakening fingertips and I can't forget this
The comfort that I've known
Escaping, running, pulling away
Into our atmosphere towards freedom
They've destroyed all we've known
Burned down our home, we must find another haven
It's a nuclear winter, all we have is infinite space
3.Tooth For Tooth
Lyricist：Robert Krueger, Anthony Ruland, Eric Sturgeon, John Van
Deusen
The trees won't stop dancing with the wind, the wind
They're leaning towards the mountains and the sea
Here alone I wonder what to say, what to say
Not sure if someone hears me when I pray
It sometimes makes me wonder
Do you keep us in mind？
They say, 'To live by faith seems a joke'
That God's up there planning while we choke
But this view reassures me of a plan
A world of suffrage held in mighty hands
It sometimes makes me wonder
Do you keep us in mind？
Oh, an eye for an eye
Tooth for a tooth
I'll give you my soul
If you give me the truth today
Hiked up here to ponder from the inside out
Self examination pain and doubt
All the years of listening adds some weight
But I can't help the questions, no, I can't help the questions
It sometimes makes me wonder
Do you keep us in mind？
Oh, an eye for an eye
Tooth for a tooth
I'll give you my soul
If you give me the truth today
Are you dying for a reason？
Are you dying for a divine cause？
Are you dying for a reason？
Are you dying for？
4.Cygnus
Lyricist：Robert Krueger, Eric Sturgeon, John Van Deusen
I listen now to the wind howl
Whispering rhymes here and there
And my mind's open wide
Tell me all I long to hear
My God, why must they argue？
Why must we all disagree？
Now the skies open wide
Spitting punishment out on the streets
And I fear we can't turn back
From all the lives we've lost
Do we know how much it costs？
We must forgive ourselves
Waging a war based on hatred
See what we have become
A world defined by lies
Oh Lord, Thy will be done
And I fear we can't turn back
From all the lives we've lost
Do we know how much it costs？
We must forgive ourselves
He spoke the truth, he knew all along
I must return home and leave at once
We will follow the stars to the northern cross
There we will find our one true home
5.God Is Dead
Lyricist：Robert Krueger, Anthony Ruland, Eric Sturgeon, John Van
Deusen
The breath of empty space consumes a shallow world
The Lonely Forest tells the story of the godless glory
Tonight we bury God, do you feel it in the air？
Flesh and bones divine, three cheers for the nothingness
How does it feel to not have a reason？
You're living this life on your own
Because God is dead, we went and killed Him
And we're dancing around on the bones
Burn the churches down
They represent weakness
Strip the morals from this town
They're hand in hand with the lower class
How does it feel to not have a reason？
You're living this life on your own
Because God is dead, we went and killed Him
And we're dancing around on the bones
I won't die alone
I won't die alone
I won't die
I won't die alone
6.Are You Afraid Of The World？
Lyricist：Robert Krueger, Anthony Ruland, Eric Sturgeon, John Van
Deusen
Are you afraid of the world
Hatred, war, disease？
Not everything reflects love
Not everything brings me joy
Danger lurks in the dark soul
As we fight through the thick vines
I caught a glimpse of life
Through the clouds, a simple outline
Are you afraid of the world？
Is this out of your control？
I won't believe, I won't let my soul go
Until you prove to me that I won't die alone
We sailed into land afar
Leaving the world we had known
In the name of science we believed
Purposeful and headstrong
Only now can I decide
To take my life and make it mine
Had I lived my life before
Sleeping on the forest floor？
Are you afraid of the world？
Is this out of your control？
I won't believe, I won't let my soul go
Until you prove to me that I won't die alone
God, will you answer me？ Call to me something
Reach out and hold the world, steady the shaking
Your creation is drowning, slowly we breathe in
Like sheep to the slaughter we're blind
Are you afraid of the world？
7.Two Notes ＆ A Beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat
Oh, last night I dreamt a magnificent thing
I held you close I heard you sing
Your voice was what I'd always wanted in a woman
I know you say he's good to you and I'm sure he is
But darling, he's all you'll ever know
Unless you trust your heart and let yourself grow
If your skin was the ocean I'd sprint to your shore
I'd wade in your shallows, alleviate my core
If you hair was the fir tree all hollow inside
With peace I would slumber
Gripping this pen, cliff over water
Envisioning drums in rhythmic salute
Poetry craft work is tough I won't bother
But pull simple rhymes from the dirt, who'd refute？
All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you my heart
It's a great place to start
D to a G, swift as a bird
Muscles remembering artless, absurd
And modest attempts at creating a mood
With these thin metal strings my affection construe
Gripping this pen, cliff over water
Envisioning drums
Poetry craft work is tough I won't bother
But pull simple rhymes
All I really need are two notes and a beat
All I really need are two notes and a beat
To sing to you my heart
It's a great place to start
