Is it all rainbows and charades Is it all rainbows and charades Is it all rainbows? People seeing angels in the city They say saved their life Are they there or are they just a picture Painted in their minds; is it so blind? Rainbows and charades Illusions we’ve defined Moonbeams and make-believe Perceptions of the mind Expeditions trying to find a creature We’ve all heard about They have seen him and they got a video But they got no sound; it won’t be found Is it peculiar to the lie How we make the truth bend? Trying to have this life make sense Is all that I perceive, real to me? Rockets flying shooting up satellites Just to find a sign A big bang or something of gods design Could happen one more time; have we lost our minds? Rainbows and charades All these moonbeams on my mind

Loving the future Techno so splendid People connected Wi-Fi the message to my head, my heart The globe is shrinking now, Be careful We are the rising oceans, we are destruction We are the waves, we are the waves We are the lights in motion, we are creation We are the waves of the future Fearing tomorrow Nature surrendered The taste is bitter Breathing the toxin inside, my lungs Imagine life beyond Be careful I am so guilty I am the problem I am so selfish I am, I am, I am Every moment is a wave into the future I want clear skies, I want starlight
3.
Another day is going to be gone now, Can’t find my place Been drifting here all alone now, You’re drifting farther away Gold seas, soft melodies now are in you’re dreams A place you can see is the only remedy to find you some peace Tonight, is a sweet recall, a sweet recall Tonight is a stop in time Have you ever felt like you can’t even cry? When you’re standing at the edge of goodbye To be free I’ve got to let you fly, from me, This Bittersweet Goodbye Another light has gone out now, I’m in the dark Places far away not seen now hold your spark Roses fall on your place now and wilt away The memory inside keeps you alive and never fades
4.
Could this be a thought in time, sincere design? Could this be a dream divine, but who never wakes? If I wake, what will I see? Will someone wait for me? If I wake, what will I dream? The dream inside the dream If all we are is all we are If all we are is fleeting When I wake where will I be? Will you be with me? When I wake what will I be? Will you then know me?

Hesitation 04:13
The thief is on the loose, Stealing the one thing I’d have used Before that moment came and passed me by The only real big shame, Is losing that feeling I can’t name You know the one that makes you feel alive Such a shame To live with never knowing Who’s to blame? That thief inside my mind My hesitation is causing me aggravation So I’m taking my chances this time, it’s now or never And the only thing I want to be Is certain in life and finally free Of the hesitation in me It’s now or never The thief has left regret In a place I can’t forget Taking place of all the things I hold It hard letting go, But one thing that I know
6.
Do the lies ring true? 
 As if it’s justified 
 For sticks and stones 
 And the words that refuse and confuse 
 The worth inside Is there a broken dawn? 
Is there no light to see? 
 Open your eyes 
It would break, but can’t take, all the strength 
 You'll find inside Stars are fading now, but hope is real 
 Hearts are breaking now, but we can feel 
 We’ll rise above, far beyond 
 Scars that never show and never heal 
 
Is there a selfless hand, 
 For a bleeding wound? 
 In a fear like this 
I could crawl from the dirt and the hurt 
 To lift my soul Why the self infliction 
 The penance will not heal 
 You’ll make it through 
 You will, You will, You will

Sleepless 03:38
She lays her head on the pillow Closes her eyes and tries to sleep
 Yesterday brought tomorrow As the dawn begins to creep

 An angel opens her eyes With the sunrise
 Then closes her eyes Though not our last goodbye
 
Sleepless 
 Sleepless
 There’s peace in her arms Though it’s not meant to be
 There’s a smile that’s so calm Though she can barely breathe 

 Cause every day after this one Is a gift 
Every prayer and memory Our hearts will lift

 Yet remain sleepless
 Sleepless

Proof 04:54
We’re broken up, like marbled paint We’re damaged souls, unlikely saints And I see the dawn through the shroud of yesterdays Don’t give up hope for me, I pray I’m lying now, to find some truth I’m searching for, concrete proof So I can say I’m not crazy Put some faith in this, in me I need you now, more than ever I keep holding on, cause we’re the proof, your my proof And we’ll carry on, this endeavour And we’ll be strong, cause we’re the proof, we’re the proof We walk alone, on winding roads In memories, exists our home And you dreamt the day I would truly see Dreams are meant for us, believe Critical and skeptical Of my own blood Ashamed of this, and of you, Of my myself Critical and skeptical Of purpose in life Come on now really mean this life I have a world, outside my own Entwined, I live in both And what’s seen will be and been will be seen The further apart the closer we’ll be
9.
One more stranger Missing pictures Nowhere Into the void Paranoia Leaves him The world is gone He’s alone Is there anything? But the black hole creature In dementias Cognitive Vacuum One whole second Recognition Of self Random flashes Trim his moustache A shell
10.
Old Man Time 02:35
Thoughts of you blow on by Winds of change sweep my life Seasons come and seasons go All that’s green and warm turns to snow Old man time closed his eyes Old man time rest your eyes I saw a flower in the snow Questions of why now I know Seasons come and seasons go All that was lost will now re-grow ’Til time is undone ’Til the mourning comes
11.
You can’t change the direction of the wind But you can use the sails to push you forward I do believe That’s what I need you to know Somewhere on the horizon there is land If you could see it then you would understand There’s hope for me That’s what I need you to know I remember the warmth of your smile and the golden shores we’d run I promised I’d find my way back home The oceans between us are wide and the storms bring doubt to us But don’t you ever lose hope That’s what I need you to know You can not change the stars in the sky But you can use them to find your way at night I do believe That’s what I need you to know Somewhere in the deep they say there’s peace In your memory I’ve found my relief There’s hope for me That’s what I need you to know I do believe That’s what I need you to know There’s hope for me That’s what I need you to know
12.
I Miss You 04:18
It’s only a matter of time Till one looks on their whole life And what it meant It’s only a question of why I have spent my whole life Hoping something You said “You gotta know where you come from To know who you are You gotta know who you are To know where your going” A puzzling question A thought in time At the end of a life I know where I have been I saw a battle of faith With courage you had peace I’m still fighting Your words are always close to mind I live in doubt yet hope I find In lonely places
