This is the path we chose to walk

Run 04:17
Take this red flag and then run til you're pumped out til your legs fail to carry you on beaten and broken, at least we're not handsome there's a fire of rage in our songs This is what means most to me Passion for the world to see And we'll run til we reach the morning sun Let them talk Run til your legs fail to carry you on Run there's a fire of rage in our songs They run their mouth to keep ours shut Just let them talk don't give a fuck And we'll run til we reach the morning sun Let them talk important's what is done cause actions speak louder than words i hear them preach but noone takes action it's time to break into their world This is what means most to me Passion for the world to see And we'll run til we reach the morning sun Let them talk important's what is done And this time we stand torches in our hand sing with me Just to let them know We are not alone sing with me THIS IS WHAT MEANS MOST TO ME

Awake 03:50
Awake at night he lies alone Sleepless and cold Wondering why she wandered on Away from him Awake at night he lies alone seventeen nights and no end in sight A picture of her behind his eyes He knows she still feels him in every touch Falling to pieces enough is enough So this is life fighting back Awake at night he lies alone Sleepless and cold Wondering why she wandered on Away from him Awake at night he lies alone He knows she still feels him in every touch Falling to pieces enough is enough And when the darkness awakes Buries the day He still waits And when the morning breaks dawn Facing the sun He still waits And when the darkness awakes Buries the day We still wait And when the morning breaks dawn Facing the sun We still wait Awake at night we're not alone carry the torch Awake at night we're not alone Keep wandering on Awake at night we're not alone

Erase 04:05
Open your lungs and breathe in the morning air, try to keep it there and just feel Open your eyes, and look up to dawning skies be affected by their size and just feel AND THEN BREATHE OUT the life you've got there's a voice in your head that tries hard to restrain you IT'S TIME TO ERASE There's no master, no leader, no captain, no saviour IT'S ONLY YOURSELF the life you've got there's a voice in your head that tries hard to restrain you IT'S TIME TO ERASE There's no master, no leader, no captain, no saviour IT'S ONLY YOURSELF

DUST TO DUST When the curtain hits the cast at the end of the run a question asked ever so often for me its second to none A fading fire leaving embers in the night We're just particles floating around Only time defines our shape A fading fire and lips locked tight Between our birth and the day that we die Constant decay Colliding with the things you tried to avoid Will you still be when you step into the night eternal darkness or blinding light No peace of mind Colliding with the things you tried to avoid What will be left when you step into the night Is there a heaven, is there a fight restless like strobe light And now the walls come crashing down and my insides laid oh so bare a king shorn of his crown in the end only a commoner DUST TO DUST
7.
Keep it alive eventhough there's an ocean between us tonight Keep it alive Cover the sorrow by closing your eyes Keep it alive deep in my heart All of the mem'ries before we would part Keep it alive Every day Keep it alive Dont let it fade When the night is the darkest and theres no end in sight I still feel your presence My guiding light Open the Gates And let me in Keep it alive deep in my heart All of the mem'ries that we have made Keep it alive Won't fall apart Keep it alive Dont let it fade
8.
All We Are 03:33
All we are is the salt on our skin all we are all we are Fighting on our own They keep playing games with our lives Games of aggression and pain We let it through on the nod Over and over again It's not a trivial offense It's time to make a stand All we are is the salt on our skin all we are all we are Fighting on our own Reading the mass of consumption Over and over again It's not a trivial offense It's time to make a stand All we are is the salt on our skin all we are all we are Fighting on our own

We lie awake at night your precious head put on my chest you told me you were fine but would you Let me make my way through the farewells and far aways Don't tell me you have nothing on your mind I won't stay Let me go I will leave this town and turn away from strangers that i know this isn't easy, it's never easy All this time alone we only had ourselves to make this go this isn't easy, it's never easy We stand afraid beside eachothers hear and my belongings are packed and tied up fast upon your trust It's everything i own but you still have my heart inside your seabag shielded safe between your warmest shirts I won't stay Let me go I will leave this town and turn away from strangers that i know this isn't easy, it's never easy All this time alone we only had ourselves to make this go this isn't easy, it's never easy All the bruises we share we share them at heart tighten our bonds as our worlds fall apart all the battles we fight we fight them alone i'v been gone for too long i'm finally coming home

War 01:37
Too many times i kept quiet Polite when you lost my respect But now I am so fucking tired Make my stand This is war Take a step back you better run And don't try ever to come back to me Take a step back you better run This is war and you're the enemy Move back stay silent This is war and you're the enemy Fucking cunt stay silent This is war and you're the enemy

Crossroads 05:11
The nights spent awake missing you like hell turn into days rot away as well You burned a thousand bridges and dragged away your heart You left me at the crossroad I was with you from the start Brothers in arms rather dead than suppressed now i try so hard suppress the beating in my chest You burned a thousand bridges and dragged away your heart You left me at the crossroad I was with you from the start I roam around Since you're gone The road that i walk I'm coming Home Friends come and go but no one takes your place If we'd meet in the streets I'd tell you face to face You burned a thousand bridges and dragged away your heart You left me at the crossroad I was with you from the start I roam around Since you're gone The road that i walk I'm coming Home
13.
On the road far from home The silence awakes Could not get sleep For too many days Feels you're too far from home I swear we aren't alone For the silent and the broken This is the path that we will take Left behind and left unspoken This is the path the we will take OOOOOOOOH For the silent For the broken The exits pass by The air's getting cold endless heights horizons unfold Feels you're too far from home I swear we aren't alone For the silent and the broken This is the path that we will take Left behind and left unspoken This is the path the we will take OOOOOOOOH For the silent and the broken
