PRYMARY LYRICS

1. Common Ground

A brief distraction
Object of my attention
To see what I know
To know what I see
Use your imagination
Analyze your reaction
Difference in interpretation
What are you seeing?
Fascination
with the creation
of a way of life
or a train of thought

Society's promises
Images and dreams
Telling lies
With honest eyes
Communicate the thought
Express the idea
Don't ask for acceptance
Put it into motion
Roads of interaction
Paths of connection
Lies and truth
Showing the proof
That this world's a point of view

Choosing my sights
I can see the light
But shadows of darkness surround me
I can walk alone
or to the beat of another
The universal's elusive
Truth can never be revealed
Because it's all a point of view

We can live by opinion
If we find common ground
We can make the decision
If we find common ground

2. Tearing Through Weakness

Why do you send me?
Away from my fears
A heart of emptiness
A river full of tears
I'm not afraid to face
The challenges before me
After all I've seen
How could I forget?

But I look into the future
Trying to change the past's remains
I'll fight 'till my last breath is gone
At times I feel I've won
But I keep coming back to surrender
It's welcome

Somewhere there's an alliance
Between you and I
But through who's doors are open
To understand each side
The thoughts that I endure
Are not thoughts
Pages with the story
Of my life

But I look into the future
Trying to change the past's remains
I look around at my new world
I once was bound
To fear and hate
But it's all behind me now

I see myself
Tearing through weakness
As I stand alone
On my way to change
I'll prove to you
That it's not impossible
Life has just begun
I open up my eyes

3. Seclusion

4. Promise

Do you close you eyes
Afraid to see the things inside
Afraid to face your fear
And face the promise of a new day
But deep inside your strength lies
To challenge the fear that is up ahead
To bring about your deliverance
and face the promise of a new day

And there you stood the victim
Young and lost and broken
And you swore you'd never
Play this part again
You took the role as master
Reaching to grab the reins
Turned your head away and tucked away the pain

Living death
Living life
Living guilt
Living pain
Keeping hope
Keeping faith
Living for the promises made

Test the water
Find the strength within you
Find the light child
Know that your heart will lead true
Be the living
Know that your view is truth
Know the mindset
To see the love that is you

And there you stood the victim
Young and lost and broken
And you swore you'd never
Play this part again
You took the role as master
Reaching to grab the reins
Turned your head away and tucked away the pain

Living death
Living life
Living guilt
Living pain
Keeping hope
Keeping faith
Living for the promises made

5. Remember

I held her hand the night she died
She's another thing I now have no more
The most important part of me
Has now become a fading memory
What will become of me?
I'm left here all alone
No one to help me
No place to call a home
My soul is tired from all
The tears that I have cried
Faith in what we believe
Will keep our dream alive

I walk the streets alone in fear
Afraid that I will never love again
She was the only thing I had
And now I've lost my only love, my only friend
But hope is still inside
I know I must go on
Nothing can change the fact
That what I have is gone
I will remember
As long as I will live
All of the happiness
She left behind to give

And when the sadness fills the day
I will be confident to know
That I can still picture her face
And it will stay with me forever

6. Tanglebox

I was young
And my mind was an open book
And the stars
Were at an arm's length reach
I saw the world
Through wondering eyes
And the dream
Was still in my sights

Along the way
I lost the view of the finish
And you
Turned a blind eye towards me
I opened my eyes for the first time
And saw a world of greed
And the man just smiled and said
Welcome to the real world
Now that I'm older
I see the toll of life's follies
But the consolation is minimal
I searched out the night sky
Struggling for the reasons why
Help me I've fallen too deep

Down the... spiral into the tanglebox
Feelings... whirling betrayal in your mind
Twisting... turning into the tanglebox
Truths are... twisted the form is broken

Caught in a cage of lies
Integrity is put to die
It's easier if I just give in
And the choice
Could mean everything
My will has sunk beneath the floor
Honesty flies out the door
The tanglebox has swallowed me alive
And the climb
Is a long way to the top

Down the... spiral into the tanglebox
Feelings... whirling betrayal in your mind
Twisting... turning into the tanglebox
Truths are... twisted the form is broken

7. Running Into A Standstill

Dreams slowly fade away
My secrets... Fade away...
Disquiet memories fill my soul, not ready to be tamed
It's instinct to run from the pain but we run into a standstill

Pain fills my cell
Each tear has a story to tell
Fire burning does not consume
Ghost of time that passed too soon
Watching the replay through my eyes
Is playing havoc in my mind

Echoes of past
Echoes of fears
Have sent me to run into a standstill
Echoed secrets
Silent years
Have lead me to run into a standstill

Smiles that slowly melt away
Tearstains gently map the way
Storm of thunder inside my head
Thoughts so easily misread

Razor cuts wounding my soul
Broken hearts never bleed you know
Lines appearing on my face
Drawn from years I can't erase

Arms outstretched as I am searching for you
Blinded by life but I'm looking for you
Searching wildly for escape
From the pain I've had to take
Shadowed nightmares
Waking Dreams
Programmed laughter
Silent Screams

All that I've seen
Is nothing new to me
The story's all the same
Life's an endless game
Life within the past
Is numbing me of feeling
While every day is fleeting
And love is so concealing
Courage spent to face the day
Leading me to find the way
Knowing now who I was
To find out who I am
Taking steps from my pain
And I know there will come a day
When I can face the past
To find my way at last

Light eclipse the night
Knowledge give me strength
To carry on this weight
And bring me to the day

I feel the tide is turning...
A river can change course
I can cease running to a standstill

Dreams that slowly drift away
Secret longings melt that into the day
Hindsight has found that I've chosen the path of most resistance
But with persistence that path has changed it's course

8. Roads Of Fire

So where do we stand?
Our feet are firmly on the ground
Taking safety in numbers
In collective chemistry
But inside the wonder
A world beyond our reach
Take hold, break the mold
Break the mold

Voices insistent
Light sparks mind to solicit
Shining grace shows revealing
To a cage in a dark place
Shackled minds can't wander
We feed of what we are given
Watching empty shadows
A glimpse of light can break these chains

Choosing my sights
A glimpse of the light
For the first time in my life
Taking hold, break the mold
For the first time in my life

Take a look at your surroundings
Shadow projection on the wall
Watch the false bonfires burning
Draw conclusions from a lie

Take a walk into confusion
Took a turn towards misconception
Stumble on throughout the darkness
As the world comes crashing down

What has happened to this life?
And where is everything we knew
Reflecting victim of a crime
Lost my world in the blink of an eye
Outside a world unknown to me
Inside a world of illusion

Reason suspect to micro-range
Welcome in the human age
Hold tight, blinding light
Has changed the course of my life
Journey's eye is suicide
Or so they say in the comfort zone

Souls remain in contented state
They remain static, They're who we are
I Close my eyes and follow my heart
Can I turn on my shadows?

Cast your doubts away
Hold your course to the truth
Cast your fears away
And move forward to the truth

On the paths of destination
Hold the truths that we seek
But the shock of revelation
Is frightening to me
Bracing hands hold me down
Keep me off the lighted path
Take my life, take my heart
Take this wanting from my mind

Here in the shadows light subsides before my eyes
Voices whisper lullabies sweetly from afar
My will has sunk from so much pressure living the big lie

Here in the confines of the light my heart begins to fade
Forbidden desires and ambitions are swept up in the wind
And yet relentless wanting flickers inside my heart
Not unlike the burning flame that's cupped in my palm

I am the wanting man
To see the truth from higher planes

Grab the reins for my own future
Make use of steady hands
Plot a course for better weather
Take a trip to unknown lands
Remember the call, Oh so vivid
Cast your doubts away
Here in the cage the door is open
Sends flooding light before my eyes

Ignoring bracing hands
Turning on the lighted path
Where I see miles and miles around
Take a straighter course
Once through the one way door
I still see for miles and miles around
Step forward to the light
If I can make the climb
Mixed with caution and eagerness
To a place on another line
Face fear of a different kind
If I can just make the climb

Crawling out of broken dreams reveals a slow decay
Foolish senses tricked by fences restricting truths from view
Sunshine relentlessly conveying views
terrifyingly awaiting change

All around the seekers rise out of the earth
Dotted landscape, seeking answers to their worth
To the giver, supplying answers to the strays
Instantaneous gratification is the ideal way

Found my way off the path
Up the way from the shadows
To the sun and the truth
or so it seems
To find my point of view
Beauty vision within the eye
Is susceptible to disguise
Open eyes will surely see
The truth has changed its shape
To fit ones needs

Outside the lights begin to slowly fade
And here we are again trapped in the same old cage
I've found the prisons changed but things I could not save
Abandoned innocence has found an earthly grave
