Persephone 04:34
Another night, walking through the city lights Like we did not long ago Sea of faces rising and breaking over me But tonight I feel alone And I’m trying to come back home I need you with me Miles away and couldn’t feel colder Count the days ‘till this trial is over CHORUS I’m calling can you hear me? But you’re too far to reach And if this message gets to you Tell me that you miss me too Baby can you see me? I am Persephone Waiting for the sun to shine Until spring arrives Every step I take seems to send me back The ground crumbles before my eyes But whenever darkness settles over me I know you’re on the other side You’re always on the other side I know you’re with me Reaching further I’ve tried my patience We’ll bend before the distance breaks us CHORUS x2

I hate this self preservation Pessimistic observation It’s all a test of faith Will you live like there’s another place To run home just abandon all we know But there’s nowhere left to go CHORUS I won’t say I’m sorry But I screamed out loud And you still ignored me So let’s blame each other for the fall Hands wring in consternation But it seems a revelation So can you hear me now? Calls and signs from a heart without a name Now that it’s done you need to delegate the blame Guilty all the same CHORUS I won’t say I’m sorry But I screamed out loud And you still ignored me So let’s blame each other for the fall You saw the writing on the wall You saw the writing…..the writing on the wall BRIDGE CHORUS

Down 03:27
Every time we walk You always keep your head down Even when the sun’s not up There are so many things around you But I can’t see your face Are you able to see mine? You know, it’s not too late. CHORUS No matter what’s going on There’s so much love around You don’t want to be alone and down Every time we talk You always keep your voice down No matter what others think I want to hear what you have to say But I can’t hear your voice You say you just want to hear mine But that’s not what I want No matter what’s going on There’s so much love around You don’t want to be alone and down I know you’re not feeling strong But there’s so much love around You don’t have to be alone and down You know it’s not to late…. x4 CHORUS

Meteors 04:08
Hello hello, I’m calling out Two signals passing in the dark And I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) Hello hello, two meteors collide Passing in the dark And I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) What are the chances that our universe collides? What are the chances that you and I survive? CHORUS Out in the silence two signals passing in the night Out in the night Out in the silence, our signals create a light Creates a light Hello, hello two worlds whirl by Passing in the dark And I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) Hello, hello, my words fly by Passing in the dark And I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) I’m breaking up (I’m breaking up) What are the chances that our universe collides? What are the chances that you and I survive? CHORUSx2

Liar 03:45
Crawled your way back up from nothing Left resting at pathetic The height to glory’s suffocating No way in hell you’ll get it But believe me when I say to you The climb is worth the pain Even if you never make it Never see daylight again CHORUS Come and light the fire Believe in me and I’ll believe in you Give up and call me a liar Get up and join me, then we’ll see this through Curled upon your aching bones And lost among the languid Flinch from those who cast the stones And slowly nurse your anger Ignore the wounds the bleeding hearts That beg you to remain If staying here means giving up The fight would be all in vain. CHORUS BRIDGE CHORUS

Running 02:50
Get up, get out, walls are caving in Bodies fall, the sickness will begin Keep your children close as it’s crumbling And touch the face you may not see again I can’t see straight, I can’t feel my legs but I am running for my life If I can make it I’ll survive Adrenaline is pumping through my veins and I am running towards the light If I can make it I’ll survive Stay strong, move on as their closing in Don’t look back, hope is still ahead No time to pray, there's no time to run There’s no escape disease is coming on I can’t see straight, I can’t feel my legs but I am running for my life If I can make it I’ll survive Adrenaline is pumping through my veins and I am running towards the light If I can make it I’ll survive Hear my heartbeat….hear my heart beating Hear my heartbeat….hear my heart beating Hear my heartbeat….hear my heart beating Hear my heartbeat….hear my heart beating I can’t see straight, the light is growing dim My body’s giving up the fight But the dead come back to life I can’t stop now, hunger’s setting in and I am hunting you tonight There is no chance that you’ll survive Venom is pumping through my veins and I am coming for your life The taste of blood keeps me alive Feel your heartbeat…..feel your heart beating Feel your heartbeat…..feel your heart beating Feel your heartbeat…..feel your heart beating Feel your heartbeat stop.

Reconnaissance To fight is your intent You leave your family To pursue lies and liberty So tell me how will I ever wake up from this? It’s closing in, the nightmares are too real So wake me up, or I’ll disappear These dreams are built on chance and fear CHORUS Break the cycle Change your future And break the cycle Claim your future Bruised and beaten Shadows of your past When the devil raised his head Did you choose to fight instead? So tell me now will I ever get out of here? It’s closing in, the anger’s all too real So break me out or I’ll disappear These thoughts are built on rage and fear CHORUS
8.
One foot here and one foot on the road Your eyes say stay but your hands let go You know I, I've lost my mind to think that Ill be better on my own To think that I'll be alone PRECHORUS Should I look back as everything is changing? Do I look back to what I had before? Pieces of my life are rearranging I find myself running towards the dark CHORUS Oh….. so lets run together Oh….. past uncertainty Oh….. we'll still have each other Miles apart and we still believe I hate goodbyes but I have to let you go Behind this smile is a fear that I don't show I want to find, find the courage to believe believe that you won't leave me on my own PRECHORUS CHORUSx2 As I look back, everything was changing I never knew what I had before Pieces of my life were rearranging But now I know, I never was alone
