Remember 03:53
Remember We forget so easily If the time is right Why should we remember? Just guard your borders Like a prison cell You can turn away from it But you can not surrender I can see decisions now being overthrown I can feel it coming --- Whose side are you on When the skies will break And you feel the fires burning? Can you find the drive That separates Your empathy from freedom? --- Nevermind the government that will look away and reigns in silence Nothing good will come of this We have to find a way We will all be prisoners that submit to reason This is not a practice life You can afford to lose And you will lose ---- Whose side are you on When the skies will break And you feel the fires burning? Can you find the drive That separates Your empathy from freedom? We will rise again and we'll never leave They'll never see it coming

Need more time Looking back Should have known No regrets All this time I could make I could break And now the meaning has changed I would save your time I would make my home I would leave all this I would change it I will take all your love I will hate it I will have no control and be free I will leave all behind me And look up Follow the rays of the sun I would save your time I would make my home I would leave all this I would change it -- All this time Lost my way Found my pain Way too late Leave behind Sacrifice Need more time Need more time
3.
Confess 02:34
Confess I'll decide what to call this All your words left to dismiss I will forget All that is said I will submit when I see fit Be afraid of all that you know Keep it close or all will be gone All in all everything Will be tried, will be missed I will forget All that is said I will submit when I see fit But when you digress I will confess
4.
Now the future Don't listen, don't forget Where you came from Ask yourself one question Do I want this? 'Cause it's too late now to make up for this We have to stand for everything we know I can feel it moving closer Ever present, now the future Polluted system, change of power Fear the key to overtake it 'Cause it's too late now to make up for this We have to stand for everything we know Leave nothing to chance Leave nothing to chance 'Cause it's too late now to make up for this We have to stand for everything we know ---- And I knew it wouldn't last forever but this time we have to stand together All this is is just another failure And we can't deny the need for pressure And I know we can't escape the fire But we can't ignore the heat forever And I know we can't escape the fire But we can't ignore the heat forever
5.
Undertow 05:05
Undertow We saw this We felt it I knew we couldn't change it The silence that followed Was real and overwhelming --- Can you feel the undertow? currents taking us along they should not be this strong --- Our sacrifice did not suffice We can't escape the future What part of this Are promises Your eyes are full of changes --- Can you feel the undertow? currents taking us along They should not be this strong ---- Can you feel it? Can you feel it? ---- The point of no return From now on Forget what you may know We will do The things that we have feared For so long We seemed invincible And now this There is no coming back We will break Promises and minds And we'll know How priviliged we were This is not How it was meant to be Coming home We'll find another place And we'll see
6.
Once More 03:00
Once more Understand, your time will come again I've seen it before Your cold embrace, wanting more To know the feeling once more Understand Understand, your time will come again I'll see it again The time we lost, never spent To call my freedom my friend Come here Come over Come home Come back We've been here before Our warm embrace, wanting more To know our freedom once more
7.
Scavengers 04:01
Scavengers We never learn this way we won't ever get what we want Although we chose for this And we'll never change But if I could choose the now or never I would never trust again I would never fail Who is it? Who is it? Keep asking, keep asking Who is it? Although we're out of time And we're out of luck We have learned To stay away from the ones That drove us apart To have to face forever We have to sacrifice our love but we would never hate Who is it? Who is it? Keep asking, keep asking Who is it? Scavengers along the way Scavengers along the way Scavengers along the way Scavengers along the way Don't get me wrong I couldn't make it all alone But I can't help myself And I can't heal myself But if we can hold ourselves together We would never join the fight We would never fail Who is it? Who is it? Keep asking, keep asking Who is it?
8.
Hope for the cause You seem desperate To find a problem And be the solution That holds the cross In confirmation Of your savior And make a difference All for the cause We are the solution Consider the cost I finally see it The world before me As it should be As it will be Confine to reason Be the servant Sign the future Sign the cause We are the solution Consider the cost Wait for the silence Wait for the lost hope is eternal Hope never lasts Hope for the innocent Hope for the brave Pray for your future Pray to be saved To be saved Hope for the sinners Hope for the lost Hope for solutions Hope for the cause We are the solution Consider the cost We draw from the fire And hope for the cause
9.
Step Forward 03:29
Step Forward If you're told To wait Be silent If they call Your name Step forward -- Don't ask Too much They'll notice Don't make Your own Decisions --- Save yourself Find a way -- Just Save yourself And Find a way
10.
Another Way 02:55
Another way Fade to black when all is grey Light is gone but I will stay I will find another way live again another day another day I'll do anything I'll do anything I'll try anything I'll have everything Don't hold me back with your constrains Put me down with your complaints As of now your empty words Meaningless but not unheard Look inside the tired mind Look inside and you will find You will find .... I'll do anything I'll do anything I'll try anything I'll have everything --- I know everything I saved everything I had everything I gave everything
11.
Look Ahead 03:25
Look ahead We'll find what we need to We'll forget everything Only way forward Is to look ahead Be safe My love Be safe My love Our future is made you're not too late Remember everything Everything you want to --- Always look ahead Always look ahead --- We were never meant to But nothing applies find a new home live in disguise Give it meaning Give it meaning Give it meaning
12.
Losing Grip 03:40
Losing grip I can feel forever losing grip Like the hands that held it, and let it slip away Too many questions, too many lies again Too many failures to be disquised Come on and find me, and bring fire I need a reason to admire How do I cope, and how does it matter? Promises break and all will be shattered I can't feel my veins but I've tried Like a flooded river That's running dry faster Too many reasons, too many ties Bind me Too many systems to compromise Come on and find me, and bring fire I need a reason to admire How do I cope and how does it matter? Systems will fade and everything shatters How do I cope and how does it matter? Everything shakes and all will be shattered
