X Marks the Spot

take my hand and walk
with me into the dark
this is where it all starts
you and me never walking apart
now I'm trying to see the world through your eyes
in these misty woods
where it all begins
an x on the road
we'll see it again
sometimes we all believe
in something that we cannot see
like chasing after phantoms or searching for meaning
but after all I see, I still believe

we have fire in our eyes
but are growing old way too fast
don't tell me about forever
when nothing ever lasts
we are young in hearts
while our bones turn to ash
don't promise me forever
i know nothing ever lasts
but i won't let yo go
no i won't let you go
i'm taking you with me
going down forever

Jersey Devil

the unrelenting progress
of a civilization
still afraid of the unknown
with the power to destroy
all that nature has to give
the devil wants to live
took what we wanted
but it was never ours
so what do we expect?
heart of the wild
seen through a mother's eyes
the devil wants to live
with arms open our hearts growing cold
we trampled unto the world never know
with guns drawn and minds drawn blank
step into the unknown and kill before we think

meet me at skyland mountain
when they find us together i'll be left alone
you can find me ascending to the stars
because i'm not what you think if i'm anything at all
we all need someone
all need someone to trust
we are all afraid
of what they're doing to us
but they can't take you from me
no they won't take you from me
following you up beyond the stars
but they can't take you from me
no they won't take you from me
i'm following you but you need to come....
meet me at skyland mountain
following my heart i'd sell my fucking soul
to find you ascending to the stars
now i'm stuck here all alone searching for a reason to it all
we all need someone
all need someone to trust
we are all afraid
of what's missing from us
but they can't take you from me
no they won't take you from me
following you up beyond the stars
but they can't take you from me
no they won't take you from me
i'm following you beyond beyond
'cause they can't take you from me
no they won't take you from me
i'm following you but you need to come home.

Which Lie to Believe
01:56
|

convincingly hidden between the lies
it's just part of the reason that they keep me alive
these are paranoid thoughts but they are after me
you can hide all you want, but they are still listening
believe the lie
it may bring you peace
but don't be convinced
don't stop swimming
there are no heroes in this war built on lies
so become a believe or learn to survive
dealing in shadows
searching for light
the truth is out there
there's a future to fight
these are paranoid thoughts
but they are after me
you can hide all you want
but they are still listening
there are no heroes in this war built on lies
so become a believe or learn to survive
i've lost track of you and i've lost track of me
i've lost track of the meaning wondering which lie to believe

isn't it all we want is to want to survive?
to want to live on to find meaning in life?
hiding in the ruins of our disposable lives
hiding in our regrets to stay out of sight
is a monster that's been born of human mistakes
a reminder to us all of the ware that we've waged
on the nature of life and the limits of hate
... just looking for a soul and a mate.
there's something that's unseen.
there's something that's unseen.
lurking under everything...
is there a monster in you and me?
is there a monster beneath us all
awakening while we sleep?
is there a monster in you and me?
searching for an outlet to freedom and hope
perhaps another freak or at least a home
hiding in the ruins or our disposable lives
hiding in our regrets to stay out of sight
is a monster that was born of human mistakes
and a reminder to us all of the war that we've waged
on the nature of life and the limits of hate
... just searching for a soul and a mate
there's something that's unseen.
there's something that's unseen.
lurking under everything...
is there a monster in you and me?
is there a monster beneath us all
awakening while we sleep?
there's a monster in you and me

Do You Think I'm Spooky?

Dana I think we're meant to be
but tell me do you think I'm spooky?
It's ok if you do
deep down I know you're spooky too.
can't you see...
that their selling us lies?
what it's doing to you?
that we're blind in the world?
that I'm just searching for truth?
Only you understand me
and I can't keep fighting without you
so tell me, tell me, tell me...
will you be spooky with me?
are you afraid....
of what you'll find in the dark?
of what you'll find in your heart?
of what they'll say about you?
of finding the truth?
Do you think you I'm spooky?
It's ok if you do.

deep in the skin, deep under ice
history becomes future and we're all gonna die
we can't trust them at all - we can't close our eyes
100,000 years gone in a night
Ice ages have hidden secrets in the skin of the Earth
our faces hide in our skin, do we know who we are?
we are not who we are
i need you to trust me now more than ever
we're fighting a future that was never meant to be
we can't turn on each other we are all that we have
100,000 year gone in an hour
Ice ages have hidden secrets in the skin of the Earth
our faces hide in our skin, do we know who we are?
we are not who we are
