Symbiotic 03:50
Building a character based on the sounds of my past Teachings were taken from teachers when I never asked for them I still remember times I delivered Lines that were taken from my beloved mentor Call it a phonic love All the sounds that control our memories, senses, How they all are symbiotic with the past I can tell character based on the sounds of your past Those sounds are a litmus test for our potential to last Strange how the smallest sounds always seem to Trigger the memories I thought that I had lost in time Call it a phonic love All the sounds that control our memories, senses, How they all are symbiotic with the past Such a simple trust That our idols have shown us And we'll sing 'til the songs come back again And I own it Symbiotic Call it a phonic love All the sounds that control our memories, senses, How they all are symbiotic with the past Such a simple trust That our idols have shown us And we'll sing 'til the songs come back again

Shao Ten 03:45
If sufferance means to close my eyes then I'll say I won't be a part of this equation The sum of my life is daylight and compassion Without these two things I couldn't exist at all They can't take away this given Summer's tailor made for living Please don't fade away This won't ever end Looking around I see nocturnal beings Unaware that sun and solace surround them As winter departs it leaves behind a trail of Grayed out, sunken eyes left looking for something more And this is what they've found They can't take away this given Summer's tailor made for living

Take time, scarred line Dance with the fire Hurt mind, small crime Dance with the fire Tomorrow will be the only day to stray from comfort Hard time, straight line Dance with the fire Stop my mind fading (woah) The cuts and the crime make it glow Can't we settle for more Than the littlest amount being offered to us Self blame, short reign Dance with the fire In my mind The better side of never is what keeps me in line In my mind I'm never gonna get it from the cuts and the crime

Monuments 03:24
On the outskirts of time Monuments twist and combine Will I have thrown it away, or savoured anything? Reimagine my life The others won't understand why Cause their happiness has stemmed from their naivety Dreams that live life for you An exceptional past that's not your own All the stories I tell And the art that I dispel Lies here withering away Does it mean anything? Dreams that live life for you An exceptional past that's not your own Country singer and madcap winter on my mind

Our minds wouldn't change for anything We thought we could rule the world We will substitute the world with hurt We will substitute the hurt with words The world will change from what it used to be We won't fight it anymore We were young and unaware Thinking life was so unfair The lights, how they fade from what they've been Can't find what I'm looking for I once understood the way things worked Now I underestimate my worth We were young and unaware Thinking life was so unfair Don't ask me to compromise I'll tell you that my heart isn't... Don't ask me to compromise I'll tell you my heart isn't there
