When there's no sky left to breathe
When there's no river left to drink
There's no future
There is no future left for me
When there's no tree left to burn
When the oceans boil and churn
There's no future
There is no future left for me
When there's no sky left to breathe
When there's no river left to drink
When there's no tree left to burn
When the oceans boil and churn
There's no future left for me
There's no future left for me
There's no future

Looking Backward
03:53
|
|||
|
I'm letting it go
One day at a time
With every sunrise
With every goodnight
I know that we won't
Be here forever
Let's live in the moment
We're here together
One life to love
One life to live and lose
Lives we don't choose
Stop looking backward
Let it carry you
We all say goodbye
We all break the tether
Let's live in the moment
Like nothing else matters
One life to love
One life to live and lose
Lives we don't choose
Stop looking backward
Let it carry you
Stop looking backward

Futures Gone
02:51
|
|||
|
I can't shake the feeling
A mark I can't erase
Like slow moving through the motions
Dreaming half awake
I won't live afraid
Won't stay in bed
Door shut and locked
Covers over my head
The world out there
Is a great unknown
I won't turn my back
Like the future's gone
I can't think about tomorrow
When I can't see past today
But I won't stop believing
There's no other way
I won't live afraid
Won't stay in bed
Door shut and locked
Covers over my head
The world out there
Is a great unknown
I won't turn my back
Like the future's gone
I won't turn my back
Like the future's gone
I won't turn my back
Like the futures gone

Nothing No More
03:17
|
|||
|
I am broke and angry
I am broken down
I don't see a solution
Or an easy way out
If I'm clutching driftwood
In a raging sea
Hope ain't nothing but
A ship in the night to me
Soon a rising tide
Will crash over my head
And the current will drag me
Straight down to the bed
In the dark of the water
There's no light left to see
Under all of that weight
There ain't no strength to break free
I can't feel nothing
I can't feel nothing no more
I was fed the gospel
Of the prosperous church
And I ate my fill
But my hunger got worse
So I bought the notion
Hard work would pay off
Knowing well the price
But not knowing the cost
Now I'm looking up
Knowing all too well
That down here at the bottom
I'm the product to sell
Though I see my life
As a drop in the pond
To think there'd be an ocean
Without me is wrong
I can't be nothing
I can't be nothing no more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
No more
I can't say nothing
I can't say nothing no more

Walking Blind
03:02
|
|||
|
How do we brush off a thousand years of dust
See past all we've lost before it settles?
We can change the world tomorrow
When I look back at why we're broken
I know we will never be made whole
The shell is cracked
The wound is open
But our will is our resolve
'Cause we are diamonds in the coal
We are invincible
Walking blind into a cloud

If This Is All That Is
02:27
|
|||
|
If this is all that is what is it?
If there's a voice out there whose is it?
What happens when
What happens when it's gone?
What happens when
What happens when I
Know like my blood is red
There is nothing after
Do I hold up my end
And pretend that it all matters?
For what?
For what?
For what?
Someone fill me in
To what
To what
To what
I've been missing
What happens when it happens?
If this is all that is what is it?
If there's a voice out there whose is it?
What happens when
What happens when it's gone?
What happens when
What happens when it's gone?

Mostly Nowhere
02:31
|
|||
|
Black highway
A dark river running
I see my life
The glare is blinding
Headlights
From the other side
Watch out
We're crossing over
To a great unknown
Where all that was
We can't return to
We're halfway there
But mostly nowhere
We're mostly nowhere

It Won't Be Long
02:28
|
|||
|
The hurt inside me grows
Would I rather feel nothing at all?
So deep it does not show
Would I rather feel nothing?
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
For what I do not know
My emptiness can only grow
Alone in the Bardo
Am I waiting for something?
Feels like falling with nothing below
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long (it won't be long)
It won't be long
It won't be long (it won't be long)
It won't be long

Back In Time
03:09
|
|||
|
Back in time
Take me back in time
Somewhere back in time
Where all my days don't look like night
'Cause nothing feels right
Here or anywhere
I'll say goodbye
To the bottle and try
Try to make a good world
Before I drink it dry
We watch our lives slip by
In the blink of an eye
Watch them speed away like light!
Back in time
Back in time
