[original opening] Oh love... Listen... Follow... Follow... Walls fading Yeah they're coming down Peace uniting Standing on solid ground October skies are breaking through October skies are changing you You were warned... Sunlight breaks through tensions Crisp air sends you dancing Don't do this, Don't say that Passing times are turning Big suits and decisions Made for me, Made for you Wars writing A violent song But these men are marching Yeah they're going to right the wrong October skies are breaking through October skies are changing you You were warned... If your wrong just try again If you fall you try again If your strong you'll stand up Broken walls don't give up If you shout just let it out Walls fading And I have it all Time changing And it falls apart Love growing Shows just who you are Love threading All that fell apart (backing vocals) yeah they're going to write the law then they're going to right the wrong yeah they're gonna write the law then they're going to right the wrong

Noise 03:20
Come on into my favorite place Nothing here ever stays the same There are melodies ready to break There's a harmony we can make Sounds pushing volumes you can't miss Words into poetry I'll can kiss Crimson tides and crystal oceans Out of time in perfect motion I believe in you I believe in love The sounds I hear in my head It's just noise, Its just noise The things I said instead Its just noise, Its just noise Forget about what was said Bullets are full of cold led It would be wise to forgive Then to relive Don't mind the static on the radio Everything's OK Don't listen to the news today It's always the same And, I believe in you I believe in love The sounds I hear in my head It's just noise, Its just noise The things I said instead Its just noise, Its just noise I can feel you when you walk the room I know your love is true I can feel you standing by Waiting for me to make a move Oh yeah Oh yeah Noise (10x) The sounds I hear in my head It's just noise, Its just noise The things I said instead Its just noise, Its just noise

Breakthrough 04:01
And we could get messy Or we could stay clean Scream out loud sadly And make us a scene You push and you pull When I ask for more When we hit the limit You do your best to sore If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you It doesn't have to hurt love But it could feel like forever Cause once you've had enough You'll want something better If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you Oh ooh Oh ooh You don't have to risk everything It doesn't really cost a thing When you really put your mind to it You'll soon forget it If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you If your dazed and confused You don't know what to do I can be there For you

In Limbo I fell into your arms In Limbo Crying out! Crying out! AH! Save me Ah! Save me [Oh God have mercy on my desperate little soul] Oh save me please

And I'm not afraid To stand with you in your place For all I ever need Is here with you Any old how or any old way It don't matter what they say And when I close my eyes I know your on your way And when I hold my breathe You still promise me that day Any old how or any old way It don't matter what they say For as long as I break this bread And as long as I spill this wine I'll proclaim your name until the end of time When the stars fall from the sky And the land begins to shake My God I know I'm goin' to break! So please take this love and do with it what you will Until that time my blood will run still

Directions 04:55
(oh, oh, oh, oh) You spend your time looking up at the stars Wondering if you will go far Drawing lines in the sand Formulating your full proof plan (oh, oh, oh, oh) [And you do your best not to go blind You do your best to stick with time But she don't like you very much The man in the mirror says as such] It was not suppose to be this way It was supposed to only last for a few days But you got caught in a dream Yeah, now you don't know how to leave And you trust What you believe Though its nothin' You can see With your eyes Wide open You see Reality Sparks fly But they don't Make you Complete So you say You'd rather feel Something real then Take a chance, lets dance, win or lose, pick and choose, where you wish to go Bright lights, can blind, think twice, you might find, what you need to know (oh, oh, oh, oh) Your head is in the clouds You won't come back down For what might happen here Oh what might happen here Your head is in the clouds You don't seem to know how to come down You try to admit it But you don't lie about it You could Kiss it Miss it Forgive it Try to put your arms around it And you trust What you believe Though its nothin' You can see With your eyes Wide open You see Reality Sparks fly But they don't Make you Complete So you say You'd rather feel Something real then Take a chance, lets dance, win or lose, pick and choose, where you wish to go Bright lights, can blind, think twice, you might find, what you need to know (don't worry about finding you way back home you're born alone You die alone It's just the way it is) - 2x

The feeling has gone But the lines have been drawn Yet lives still change Day to day Plans have been written But the reason forgotten In a photo scarlet Now you've lost it Screaming out for help In your dream landscape Screaming out for help Looking for an escape Time has passed you by It is everything So you compromise For everything But everything is nothing When everything leads to Nothing So it is your loss Up on that cross Screaming out for help In your dream landscape Screaming out for help Looking for an escape It's the heart that cries The big suit and tie The good old lie You can't stop time So your head hurts From what you've learned The diplomat in the corner Is reaching as far over Your roses that have been crushed The reasons why you lust For the extreme change For the real break Jesus standing by a table Making you feel kind of stable But you have to scrap these plans Because you don't understand So it's back to the drawing board With you With you, with you, with you, with you...

Dreamscape 02:15
In a dreamland scape I try to escape For this feeling Broken Feeling Street Lights Big Fights Lets sight Our Rights Street Lights Big Fights Lets Sight Our Rights Burning Fire on the Fence Burning Fire on the Fence It's on primetime Coming over the wire They're acting like its a good time But the buildings still on fire

Shred 04:11
I saw you dealing with your pain I wanted to make it go away I saw you kneeling on the floor Pleading please answer LORD No one ever asked for this It's not something you just forget The feeling that won't deny Is taking up all of my time Oh, oh, oh Sing with me This lovely song Dance with me Come along Tell me What is wrong Let me Sing your song (but) will I, sing your song wrong? (but) will I, sing your song wrong? (but) will I, sing your song wrong? (but) will I, sing your

Mocking Bird 03:22
Yes sir I threw the brick at the window you see I didn't mean anybody harm Bet that's hard to believe I saw her run for the door I saw her fall to the floor I stopped and looked around I forced myself to the ground And now you know she's dead And its inside my head Oh and there's Nothing I can do Nothing I can do now I wanna go back inside I promise to be kind To be kiiiiiiiiiiind The girl in the corner liked to go on and speak I tried to warn her but she was lost in her dreams And now your never coming back No your never coming home I'll never get it out Never get it out I'll never Never I wanna go back inside I promise to be kind To be kiiiiiiiiiiind I promise to be kind Never go home Never stand here I could never be kind

Gravity 04:17
They're marching out on the streets again Don't know what to say my friend Maybe one day we'll see the end Maybe two more and it will again begin What I wanna know now Is what I'm to do What I wanna know now Will love come through? They promised us the moon and stars (Yeah) they said with them we would go far How much lower do we have to go Before we find our way back home What I wanna know now Is what I'm to do What I wanna know now Will love come through? (scat singing) I wanna stand on solid ground I wanna stand up and take a look around Wanna leave gravity and start to believe Believe... Believe... Believe... Oh! No no no no Oh! No no no no It starts again, it starts again Oh! No no no no Oh! No no no no It starts again, it starts again Be careful what you dream What you dream you just might be Be careful what you dream What you dream you just might be Could be wonderful Could be harmful Could be plentiful Could be wonderful Be careful what you dream What you dream you just might be Be careful what you dream What you dream you just might be Be careful what you dream What you dream you just might be Be careful what you dream What you dream you just might be
