1.Till We Make Our Ascent
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
Stay here, stay in the moment
Where the blooming of spring never ends
Let's go down by the willow tree
Roll with the hills till we make our ascent
All I imagined is all that I see
Gardens of flowers and warm summer breeze
There's a place where no trouble is seen
Everything's perfect but it's all just a dream
That I have when I sleep through winter that never ends
Open, open your eyes to
A world of all that can sadden your heart
Color absent from all I see
Skies are gray and the streetlights are dark
Lost in a sea of sad faces and hearts who claim
Eye for eye, tooth for tooth with words far beyond reproof
Still I remain unconvinced
All these years, hoped and we've dreamed
For a final escape but to no avail
All I hear the infinite buzzing of vanity's lips
Forming words for the eager in ear
There's a man reciting the words of his God
In a room full of pliable hearts
And each word, teaming with fire
Consumes any reason that's lingering near
Every word will precede a great cheer
To affirm that the problem could never lie here
And on goes the shifting of blame
All these years we've hoped and we've dreamed
For a final escape but to no avail
All I hear the infinite buzzing of vanity's lips
Forming words for the eager in ear
What I wouldn't give to go back to that place
Just to feel the warmth of the sun shining down on my face
The smell of young roses in bloom
I'd gladly spend the rest of my days in that afternoon
I can't bear to look at another sad face
In this town riddled with fear
Close your eyes, we'll make our escape
Shake the dust off your feet, dry the last of your bitter tears
2.Nice To Meet You
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
There comes a time when you make up your mind
Oh, where to lay your lonely roots down
And I've been traveling so far and wide
Seen the deepest depths and heights beyond high
So I'm surprised to see you with my eyes
When my mind's best dreams had left your face so incomplete
It's nice to meet you
Nice to meet you, nice to meet you
It's nice to meet you
Nice to meet you, nice to meet you
I know the day that I chased you away
When the words I spoke were terribly wrong
And I confess that I made quite the mess
But it's just too late and now you've moved on
Take me back to the days of the sun
Brightly shining down on the two of us
We used to lie staring into the sky
Leaving every toil and worry so far behind us
It was nice to meet you
Nice to meet you
It was nice to meet you
Nice to meet you, nice to meet you
Nice to meet you
So now I pack my bags again with all this time to spend
To walk the earth without you by my side
All the fields and hills I roam will never feel like home
And how I wish that you'd never left but it's just too late now
3.Morning Cloud
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
I saw two clouds this morning
Tangled by the rising sun
And in the dawn they floated on
And mingled into one
Well, I thought that morning cloud was blessed
How it moved so sweetly to the west
He bids me leave this dreary world
Oh I have to go, no I won't be sold
Float on in joy, I'd like to meet
A calmer sea where storms shall cease
And all for all that's all I'll need
A purer sky when all is peace
I saw two summer currents
Flow smoothly to their meeting
And join their course with silent force
And peace each other's greeting
Float on in joy, I'd like to meet
A calmer sea where storms shall cease
And all for all that's all I need
A purer sky when all is peace
Every care can be thrown to the wind by the oceanside
Watch them fade away
The sky is ablaze with the setting of the sun
Ends this perfect day with a million stars to gaze
4.Great Blue Sea
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
Fall into the sea
Arms spread wide into the airborne breeze
Away, fall away
The creatures I might meet
They wonder how a man makes such a feat
But I wonder how long I can last if I don't breathe
The world is blue but it's such a shade that makes you think
It's new to you, a color never seen
I swim into the deep beyond the cliffs and coral reef
The rippled silhouettes of ships passing overhead
The rays of the sunlight fighting for their lives
The silence never told a story like this before I made my
descent
If only I could have written a plea from my watery bed
Begging for air so my lungs are fed
My story at large will be lost in the sea
When a man tells his tale he will need to breathe
Need to breathe
Better make your peace before you breathe it in
Oh, oh my God, never thought this is how I'd meet my end
Oh, oh I suppose I've made a big mistake, affording me this fate
Let me live and in the great blue sea I'll spend my final day
Swim into the deep beyond the cliffs and coral reef
The rippled silhouettes of ships passing overhead
The rays of the sunlight, fighting for their lives
The silence never told a story like this before I made my
descent
If only I could have written a plea from my watery bed
Begging for air so my lungs are fed
My story at large will be lost in the sea
When a man tells his tale he will need to breathe
Need to breathe
The sun has found its way into someone else's day
Such beauty I have seen, now darkness serene
If I had just one chance I would have written a plea from my
watery bed
Begging for air so my lungs are fed
My story at large will be lost in the sea
When a man tells his tale he will need to breathe
Need to breathe, need to breathe
5.I Hear That Music Play
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
When I found my way home I wondered in my mind
If all of this was worth it, worth my life
But when I heard that song play I made up my mind
That how it made my heart sing a song so divine
And I will try to forget about
The constant war that rages on inside my soul
I know that I can't, I could never forget it all
I never could escape that soothing melody
And it feels like I just found my way
'Cause in my darkest hour I hear that music playing
And suddenly the world and its toil disappear
When the rhythm and chords fill my ears
I know that I should share it, share what I have found
It's still a joy that song gives to your life
Can you hear it playing？
Notes intertwine and every chord has purpose playing in its time
'Cause no where that could hope to find this thing explained
So why don't we just listen to the keys and strings
And it feels like I just found my way
'Cause in my darkest hour I hear that music playing
And suddenly the world and its toil disappear
When the rhythm and chords fill my ears
When your heart's feeling weak and nothing seems to remedy
The weeping of the piano keys is crying for your pains and needs
And in the storms you cannot bare the chaos warms and fills the
air
There's not a soul to mourn with you, the dissonance is ringing
through
I know, oh no I've been there before
There's never been a better time to lend your ears
If only I could silence all this noise
Then you could hear it, you could hear it nearer than the desert
sky
And it feels like I just found my way
'Cause in my darkest hour I hear that music playing
And suddenly the world and its toil disappear
When the symphony rings through my ears
The most beautiful song you can hear
May the music I love fill the years
6.The Moments In Between
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
The moments in between the words I hear you speak
Are desolate and clean and leave me feeling weak
Well, I just want to see a beautiful world in my dreams
All I see is me in the center of all I seek
Now I feel like a ghost in a world that is fading
All I've been taught to recall simply fails to persuade me
The truth tends to sting while it heals
And the only way back is screaming the words
Oh my god what have I become？
I feel this fire burn
Burn 'till I'm undone never to return
I remember when the wind brought heaven's scent
And the stars that filled the sky drew a line between you and I
Oh my god what have I become？
I feel this fire burn
Burn 'till I'm undone never to return
Lift your voice up loud, I declare myself this hour
Simply dust that's entrusted with such a peculiar power
Oh my god what have I become？
I feel this fire burn
Burn 'till I'm undone never to return
There's nothing like living, asleep in some hazy dream
(Oh my god what have I become？)
Then your eyes open to see what they've never seen
(I feel this fire burn)
Oh, the first time that my gaze fell upon this place
(Burn 'till I'm undone never to return)
How I shudder to think what I've become
7.Hold Out
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
My memory is fleeting with age
As I prepare to touch my pen to the fiber of this page
But all the ink will run dry long before
I can write my final tale given all that lies in store
I'm holding on for dear life
I barrel through the good times
After crawling through the strife
With every moment passing, never to return
I'm getting on in my days
Sifting through the sadness
For the gold of better days
So long as I keep breathing I can find my way
I just can't give in
World's so dead that I am living in
I'll hold out for something else
Something words can never tell, can't tell
Find my way beyond the dark and straight into the light
If all else fails I'll have my wits to guide me through the
night
I don't dare to turn my head to either side
The wind bids me to sway like the words that people say
But they won't sweep me away, not today
I just can't give in
World's so dead that I am living in
I'll hold out for something else
Something bigger than, something better than
Something I can't stand to fight, yeah, yeah
8.The Mystery Of Our Day
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
The world is just a playing field for man
And the blanket sky will cover every last event
From the battles of the ages to the baby sleeping tight
I could sing a rhyme and try to find the reasons for each place
and time
To wrap the world around my mind but I, I know at best
Words were never meant for explaining the mystery of our day
We're so afraid of what's at stake when we die
Still I never wanted to live in such fear of the unknown
Or the reasons for pain in this life, this life
I still wonder what we're doing here
As I stare into the midnight sky confronted by my fears
Is there something worth redeeming in this old and tired world？
Or has all been lost 'cause every change will have its cost
And I can see there's still an ember left of something good, I
know at best
Words were never meant for explaining the mystery of our day
We're so afraid of what's at stake when we die
Still I never wanted to live in such fear of the unknown
Or the reasons for pain in this life, this life
I could sing a rhyme and try to find the reasons for each place
and time
To wrap the world around my mind
But I'd regret the time poorly spent 'cause I know, I know at
best
Words were never meant for explaining the mystery of our day
We're so afraid of what's at stake when we die
Still I never wanted to live in such fear of the unknown
Or the reasons for pain in this life, this life
9.Something In The Way That You Are
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
I can feel the cold air fill into my lungs
Brave another winter and pray for the sun
But the sun will never warm my heart the way that you do
You got me singing out
I live in a castle where no one can come near
And every wall was laid with bricks of mortar and tears
I swore I'd never lower down this old bridge again
Every word you speak, my walls crumble in
When we both sing out
There was a time when I could tell you for sure
That love was just a cruel charade of
Empty words and promises to break
But something in the way that you are
Makes me wanna start again
Love can draw a fine line between wisdom and folly
And clarity of vision proves itself beyond worth
But every line is blurry when your eyes are like mine
But still I clearly see what you'd have me find
When we both sing out
There was a time when I could tell you for sure
That love was just a cruel charade of
Empty words and promises to break
But something in the way that you are
Makes me want to start
With all the crippling fear that heartache can bring
Darling if you take my hand
I'll walk with you from winter into spring
Something in the way that you are
Keeps me hanging on again
With all the crippling fear that heartache can bring
Darling if you take my hand
I'll walk with you from winter into spring
Something in the way that you are
Makes we want to start
10.Breathe Again
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
Snow in the air as it rides the winter breeze
Crystals of ice are hanging from the trees
The morning of Christmas has arrived in its due time
The children are waiting, their joy becomes mine
We march down the stairs and into the other room
The lights shining bright on the tree for all to view
The window is shattered and the presents are all gone
And all the cries of my children wrote this song
And I swear when I get my hands on him
He'll never breathe again, never breathe again
I won't stop tearing him limb from limb
He'll never breathe again, never breathe again
I get in my car to chase the only set of tracks
A gun in my hands and a bag in the back
Deep in the slums I saw him with their toys
My gunshot rang out but the snow absorbed the noise
I bagged up his body and I threw it in the car
With all the toys that he'd carried oh so far
Now that I got my hands on him
I can breathe again, I can breath again
Finally I've rid the world of him
And I can breathe again, I can breath again
Back at the house all my children were so sad
When their presents returned then not but joy they'll surely
have
I drove to the river and I threw the body in
And no one else will be paying for his sin
Something screaming inside me says that
I can breathe again, I can breath again
Judge me all that your hearts desire
But I can breathe again, I can breath again
11.Let It Go
Lyricist：Michael Carroll, Jeffrey Martin, Steven Padin, Kelly
Sciandra, Joseph Secchiaroli
Don't know what I'm thinking
But I can tell that something's different tonight
These moments I can't talk about
I recall the joy I felt with such delight
I know that my heart's been here before
But my mind could never find the words to say
A feeling so small yet so adored, it takes me away
And I don't believe it I could let it go, let it go
I can't believe it I would let it go, let it go
Weary had my heart become
How far gone had my perception lost its sight
As bleak as I could see my life
Simply worthless yet pursued with endless strife, no
I know that my heart's been here before
But my mind could never find the words to say
A feeling so small yet so adored, it takes me away
And I don't believe it I could let it go, let it go
And I can't believe it I would let it go, let it go
It seems right to bear my own shame but the mystery remains
Despite all the world, we are haunted by something we can't
explain
Like a whisper in our ear that just wants for us to hear a word
of grace
I know that my heart's been here before
But my mind could never find the words to say
A feeling so small yet so adored, it takes me away
And I don't believe it I could let it go, let it go
And I can't believe it I would let it go, let it go
And I can't believe it I would let it go, let it go
I don't believe it I could let it go, don't let it go
12.Do You Realize
Lyricist：Wayne Coyne, Steven Gregory Drozd, David Fridmann, Michael
Lee Ivins
Do you realize
That you have the most beautiful face
Do you realize
We're floating in space
Do you realize
That happiness makes you cry？
Do you realize
That everyone you know one day will die？
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes
Let them know you realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
You realize the sun doesn't go down
It's just an illusion
Caused by the world spinning round
