SIENNA SKIES LYRICS

1. Misunderstood

So tell me how
How many people, have tried to get the better of you?
Told you you'll never amount to one single thing?
Drowned you with a fist full of words that you could never understand?
Told you the mask you wear, just isn't welcome?

So sick of being told we're just no fucking good.
So sick of proving that we're just no fucking good.
So sick of being told we're just no fucking good.
Proving the point that you never understood.

And I was told maybe, I'll start a fire,
Watch it burning down all of the hatred, standing among us.
Maybe I'll start a fire,
Watch it burning down all of the hatred,
Leave no wall standing.

You choose to follow that line,
The path you're choosing's fucking blowing my mind.
Saying it's yours like it was never stolen.
Cheats and lies, blaming faith, contorted.

Not a day goes by, where I haven't thought of jumping from the sea to sky.
But we are all sick of flying alone and blind.

And I was told maybe, I'll start a fire,
Watch it burning down all of the hatred, standing among us.
Maybe I'll start a fire,
Watch it burning down all of the hatred,
Leave no wall standing.

This place is burning in my lungs,
The cold takes over and makes me numb
(Not a day goes by, where I haven't thought of jumping from the sea to sky.
But we're all so sick of flying alone and blind)

2. Divided

As I listen to, my brother speak,
Of the hell inside his head,
I wonder if it's in me to. In me too.
And too often I'm thinking the same thing,
My indecision is my own.
But he proved me wrong, these words run deeper.
The imperfections and differences of our skin, only mean one thing.
The hell in me is the same hell in him

The dead are alive, and I can't help but sit back and wonder if something is wasted,
Something is wasted
Because you and I are fighting the fight.

We are divided
We woke from a dream where we once were united
We are divided
And we're kept awake hoping you can unite us.

I'll walk through hell and back.
Cold blood streaming through my eyes
I'm sick of walking in circles.
I'm killing myself just to prove to you I am alive

The dead are alive, and I can't help but sit back and wonder if something is wasted, something is wasted
Because you and I are fighting the same fight and it's time you know, I won't leave you here to fight alone.

3. When Mountain Meets Man

Roll on
To where the mountains breach.
To where the rate of humanity starts to sink into the years you spent,
Hiding behind your own fucking pretense.
And as the walls burn around you
Where will you hide tonight?
We're breathing comfortable tonight.

I won't be left here to choke on your mistakes
The wind and sun will prove their worth in the end
My skin and whats left underneath will turn the page to fight again.

Point the finger of the corporate glove
To figure out who's to blame
Throwing it back and forward
But the problem, the problem stays the same.
The problem stays the same,
But by the time it seemed so obvious, it'll be too late to save your name.
I'll stand on industry, looking back
I know this place ain't right for me

I won't be left here to choke on your mistakes
The wind and sun will prove their worth in the end
My skin and whats left underneath will turn the page to fight again.

I was born to believe that a man could wear his heart on his sleeve.
And as a man I'm proud to be, my fathers son, from the way he raised me.
And mother, you'll always be dear to me.
And I wanna thank you for making sure that
I was born to believe that a man could wear his heart on his sleeve.
And as a man I'm proud to be, my fathers son, from the way he raised me.
And mother, you'll always be dear to me.
Please don't blame me for causing this tragedy.

I won't be left here to choke on your mistakes
The wind and sun will prove their worth in the end
My skin and whats left underneath will turn the page to fight again.

So roll on to where the mountain meets man, to show you the worst of his master plan.

4. Quarterlife

I've got a lot to say, but who knows how much time I've got left to say it.
'Cause this right here,
These open doors and ticking clocks, could end at any minute.
Blinded by what I'm told to believe,
I'm longing for that one thing I can't see.
Standing here, watching the whole world slip away, following our heads and our pockets and leaving our heart to waste.

I've been beaten and beaten.
And after that I will never say never again.

Start staring through the horizon, through the tyrant of age, seeing everything in it's truest of value.
I hope you can all say.
The world is bigger than me.
This worlds not built on fact or reason.
The truth is what you believe in.

I've been beaten and beaten.
And after that I will never say never again.

I've got nothing to show, I'll never let go, these memories I've made for me
I've seen the world, I'm 25 and I've got nothing to show,
But the memories I've made for me.
And I'll never let go.

5. There's No Place Like...

I've been chasing snow for as long as I can remember.
My whole life.
And it makes me shiver.
But as the cold wind blows it reminds me,
I like the smell of summer rain better.
Following a sober belief that where I end up will always be right for me.

If I can't come home,
And I can't be told,
Where does that leave me in this world alone.
There's just no.

And I'll try to sing, sing the songs that remind me that I'm someone.
But they don't quite make it.
And when I let it all sink in, when I let it all sink in,
I'll realise where I've just run from.

If I can't come home,
And I can't be told,
Where does that leave me in this world alone.

And I know I'm wrong,
For the things I've done,
I'm sorry I left you, in this world alone.

But I can't come home,
Cause of what I've done,
But will you believe me, when I'm all alone.

6. Clear Eyes, Full Hearts

If I? Could I?
If an ocean or a highway, had never lied between, and I promised you I promised you, that I would never leave,
Could you love me like you did before I left you in the cold,
And join me in a place where we would never be alone,
Could you?

7. Palliative

I'm loosing a generation,
And it's taken
Ninety plus years but deaths finally made a new friend.
Welcomed with open arms like he'd always intended
And I saw the black hood
And it whispered my name.

If I hold your hand a little tighter,
Will you stay here one more day.
If sing your name a little louder,
Will you still remember me

Memories of a hospital bed, as my family stand around, they're quoting the dead.
The cold touch of my hand on your chest,
Watch your sleeping smile
Knowing you gave nothing less than it all for your family to live and survive in a world
That death has finally said it's time
That you departed, for

Where fathers meet mothers
And brothers meet brothers

If I hold your hand a little tighter,
Will you stay here one more day.
If sing your name a little louder,
Will you still remember me
And I'm loosing a generation, but I'll be OK.

8. Corporate Cross

Where we last cast off felt like a place of change,
To where the face was a face that we believed would mend,
The burning crosses and dead souls that died for amendment
Running riot in a town that bigots fail to mention.
If the regulations
Meant you can get away with this
Then the people cant help
Can't help but feel used and cheated

Now you stand on your pedestal begging all to hear
While your followers reduce to reproducing fear.

Left in the heart of man.
From the vultures and leeches and snakes in the grass.
Left in the heart of man.
From the vultures and leeches and snakes in the grass.

You say the heavens have sent you to fix this mess
Now you're counting the dollars and never making sense.
The world won't stay blind forever.
The broken backs and calloused hands will strangle the throat, that left the poor to beg,
But for the last time we stand tall with heads high,
When we're left broke.

But you still stand on your pedestal begging all to hear
While your followers reduce to reproduce fear.

Left in the heart of man.
From the vultures and leeches and snakes in the grass.
Left in the heart of man.
From the vultures and leeches and snakes in the grass.

I've got, no fucking respect for you
Your story can't convince me to join you.
With all my demons, and insecurities
Peace in my head will fucking kill me.

So here is the church.
Here is the steeple,
Open it up and fucking rescue the people
Left in the heart of man.
From the vultures and leeches and snakes in the grass.

9. Sepulchre

Bless me, for what's under my skin,
Fear me, for what it's given to me.

I fear I'll come home a broken man
The madness means nothing if you know the purpose,
What's shed from the smoke and dust?
Discomfort, chokes at my every thought.
And I'll bleed out all I can
But I'm leaving, I'm leaving a broken man.

Bless me, for what's under my skin,
Fear me, for what it's given to me
I've been cheated, I've been mislead
An identity I can't live with
The war inside of my head keeps waging on

I'll never know regret,
Regret from what I never said
Can you feel it?
The false lies you chose to spread
Run around and around in my head
Like clockwork it follows me round til my death
Never knowing a fucking thing,
I'll keep on searching but never discovering
Where I stand or choose to fit in
This world and my word will be the death of me
And as I listen to the seconds go by, I'm broken inside
In half the man I was last time.

Bless me, for what's under my skin,
Fear me, for what it's given to me
I've been cheated, I've been mislead
An identity I can't live with
The war inside of my head keeps waging on

Oh god please help me
I'm sick of loosing sleep,
So sick I cannot eat
I'm sick of breathing
So sick of counting the bodies of my dead friends in my eyelids
Oh god, oh god please help me

10. Separated Hearts

[feat. JT Woodruff]

Hey, are you still awake?
I just woke up in Vancouver, but I haven't slept in days.
Hey, are you still awake?
It's 3AM, and I can't seem to shake the smile from my face.
I know that I've been missing home, but I don't remember where that was,
And one thing that I promise you, is that I'll be home soon

These traveller nights don't feel so alone, when I'm waking up to the sound of the phone.
We're minutes away yet miles apart,
This is the sound of the separated heart.

Hey there, are you still awake
I'm still miles from Ohio
And it seems like years away.
The years have slowly ticked on by, with another overtired drive.
But I'm still sitting here thinking.
Of being by your side.

These traveller nights don't feel so alone, when I'm waking up to the sound of the phone.
We're minutes away yet miles apart,
This is the sound of the separated heart.

As all this time slips away, with all I've done on the road while you wait
I'm stuck feeling like I've got no place to go
I know the time zones will change, with all I've done on the road while you wait
I'm stuck feeling like I've got no place to go

These traveller nights don't feel so alone, when I'm waking up to the sound of the phone.
We're minutes away yet miles apart,
This is the sound of the separated heart.
