VERSE I
Racing down route 81
Another conversation, has begun
Between me, myself, don't need no help
Just another dreamer on the run
I hear all the things they say
Too set in my ways to complicate
The way things are, and its so far
But I won't just sit around and wait
CHORUS
Gotta' reach a little more
Gotta' show 'em what we're fighting for
If its all the same, I'll take the pain
'Cause we gotta reach a little more
We're never going to walk away
We’re gonna make our choices, every day
Never going to break, we know the stakes
And we're never going to walk away
VERSE II
Some say it takes a day
And its not what you give, its what you take
Do you agree or can't you see
There’s more than just one single way
If it takes a little time
Isn’t that worth it, in your mind?
To see things through, it’s up to you
On whether it will pass you by
BRIDGE
We'll climb mountains high
And the valley we'll leave behind
In the darkness of the night
We'll reach for the light

Love in the Moment
04:15
|
|||
VERSE I
Once in a lifetime, hard to decide
Rolling the dice, and letting it ride
The futures forever, but what about now?
We’ve got something that’s searched for, but not easily found
Creatures of habit, not quick to jump in
When nothings established, and the premise is thin
But there lies the beauty, in taking a chance
A kiss from a smile, true love from romance
CHORUS
Tell me if it’s something, that you cannot believe
Tell me that it’s something, that you can’t see
Caught in the middle, but we can’t agree
On love in the moment, of destiny
We can’t live forever, we’ve only got tonight
Time waits for no one, when the stars align
Maybe in the future, full of moonlit skies
We’ll think about this moment, in the waning light
VERSE II
Miles behind, or light years ahead
Doesn’t really matter, inside of my head
Think about the future, think about the past
Think about these moments, they never seem to last
BRIDGE
Love for the ages, written in pages
That won’t fade away, from the test of time
Ten-thousand paces, or a million places
Won’t get us lost, when the hearts our guide
An ocean of faces, never replaces
Dreams that I have, where I see you clear
No chance of falling, when our destiny’s calling
Our time is now, and our love is here

VERSE I
Think I’m gonna’ take a ride
Set my time machine for ‘85
Where the colors feel alive
Stuck inside the neon signs
Find adventure in the night
And take a picture with my eyes
I wanna’ know what it’s like
The analog side of life
CHORUS
Strangers in the night will make you feel alive
And constellations in the dark will be defined
If you wanna’ take a ride, to a place in ‘85
Just close your eyes, and you and I, will take a trip through time
VERSE II
Put my car in overdrive
Let the future pass me by
There’s something here I can’t describe
Its something that I can’t deny
Some will say that it’s a lie
A journey through both space a time
But they will never change my mind
I’ve never felt more alive
BRIDGE
We can hold our breath, under a red sunset
And nostalgic dreams will be all in our heads
The past is gone and now there’s nothing left
Until we dream again, we’ll remember then

Ghost Within the Shell
04:45
|
|||
VERSE I
Emptiness, all too real
We look inside, just to feel
Connected more, than we have been
Since time has come, and gone again
The age has come, for us to be
Transients, among machines
PRE-CHORUS
Reduced to a set, of hollow moving parts
Traded out our souls, and cast aside our hearts
Never stopped to ask, in what we shouldn’t trust
Does anything remain, left of us
CHORUS
Tell me now, baby can you see
The difference from, the man and the machine
You can try, but its so hard to tell,
The person from, the ghost within the shell
VERSE II
Hollowed out, nothing left
Experience, synthetic death
Starved of touch, lost our sight
The ghost within, comes to life
Connected now, connected in
To nothingness, to feed within
BRIDGE
They say that we, are only human now
Changed into something, some else, somehow
Maybe we've let, the ghost become ourselves
Maybe its the last thing, that we've got left
FINAL CHORUS
We're reaching out, we're trying to see
Is there anyone, inside the screen
Made of flesh and bone, we must let go
Of circuits that turn our heart to stone
When the light fades, and the powers gone
Who will still stand, and continue on
We were meant for more, our hearts rebel
Against the ghost, within the shell

When the Fires Out
04:26
|
|||
VERSE I
Take a look inside
And tell me what you find
Is there is something deep within, or does hopelessness reside?
Stranded in the plains
Where emptiness remains
Who will stand when others can't, if the fire fades and dies?
CHORUS
When the fires out, when there's nothing left but doubt
We'll hold onto the flame inside that burns without a sound
In the shadows of the dark, in the beating of the heart
The embers wait for us to make, the choice to make a spark
I won't walk away, I won't close the page
Just because the ending isn't what I had arranged
The past cannot be changed, the future I reclaim
The sun will rise and I will find, my hope within the flame
VERSE II
Where it comes from, no one knows
It’s a mystery that can't be closed
It comes and goes, like the rising of the tide
So if you see it, run and chase it
Let it break your heart to pieces
Cause in the end, it brings us back to life
BRIDGE
I hear the sound, of a thousand generations
Who seek not our praise, or words of admiration
They only ask of us, to reach inside and find
The hope of all nations , and keep the flame alive

Juno
04:02
|
|||
VERSE I
He wakes with the rising, of an old dying sun
On a planet called Juno, a man on the run
A starship that’s broken, with hope kept alive
By the light of a fire, that clings to the night
PRE-CHORUS I
Alone, in the plains
It’s not like him to search the sky and look for clouds of frozen rain
And what, remains
Of memories that fade away, like the night against the coming day
CHORUS
Empty world, orbiting a dying star
Untouched by, colonies of kingdoms far
Lost within, a galaxy so far away
A story told, by those who leave but none that stay
VERSE II
She looks to the future, and considers her time
On a planet called Juno, and a love left behind
She’ll leave in the morning, but stay for tonight
The ocean of stars, can wait one more night
PRE-CHORUS II
She wakes, at first light
The skies are clear for starships here to start their early morning flight
And so, with closed eyes
She lifts off up into the clouds, and leaves a broken heart behind
BRIDGE
Flying through the solar system
Thinking of the time she kissed him
Time is now a part of distance
On this inter-stellar highway
She’ll age a day, he’ll age a year
And telescopes will make it clear
She can’t go back to what she had
Junos gone, and in the past

Lost in Space
04:08
|
|||
VERSE I
Signals fade, like evening light
Our galaxy, soon fades from sight
Engines failed, can’t turn around
No one out there, to help us now
On our own, we signify
The hopes and fears, of all mankind
Will we see, our home again
Time won’t tell, from now ‘till then
CHORUS
Lost in space, so far away
Transmissions sent, but none obtained
Questions of, both when and where
We’re calling out, is someone there?
VERSE II
Colors fade, within our dreams
Emptiness, a new routine
Hard to sleep, yet we’re awake
We still have hope, yet accept our fate
Its been three years, since we’ve seen
Our home world, of blue and green
Reaching out, as protocol
Can anyone, still hear our calls?
BRIDGE
Distance has, broken us down right to our bones
We flew too far, through emptiness and the great unknown
We’re holding on, lookin’ for a way back to our homes
And until then, we’ll hold our breath for any hope
