The January Tree
Lies Only lies Spoken by runaway eyes I don't hear what they say When they talk this way Though they say everything twice Spiders and flies We're caught in a web and we're eaten alive Spiders and flies We're caught in a web and we're eaten alive Earth is shaken God forsaken Paradise was overtaken Smiles are taken Lives are taken Till the sleeping eyes awaken Defy and deride All in the name of our pride Earthquakes and hurricanes Wind and endless rains Always the Earth will abide Spiders and flies We're caught in a web and we're eaten alive With a smile they hope you believe in the lie With a smile they hope you believe in the lie When they talk this way Leave the world this way And they try to say I'm the one out of my mind When we walk away I am caught in a web and I am eaten alive Spiders and flies We're caught in a web and we're eaten alive

Hearing sirens rush away Fear inside of me Tearing down my innocence Scream their mad confession Hear the silence deafening Hear the flies descend Turn and face my enemy Twist the knives of vengeance Feel the silence penetrate Deep inside of me In my sanctuary All my fears, are vanquished Something inside of Fight me Just won't let me go Tearing me, biting me, spiting me Don't let it show Can you make it go Can you hear the voices, the choices They crawl from below Hear the silent symphony Hear the silent symphony Hear the winding sound Hear the winding sound Can you hear the madness, the sadness Won't let me go Can you hear the voices, the choices The silent rage Something inside of me Some thing dividing me Haunting me Calling me Clawing me

Light is glowing Faintly showing Burning like a candle To light our way Wind is blowing Strong and growing Trying to douse the flame So darkness can prevail Earth is turning Slowly burning No one learning History repeats itself Hate can only create more hate Hate can only create more hate Flags are waving Madmen raving Jesus saving no one So save yourself Bullets raining Blood is staining Try explaining Why we have come to this People dying Screaming, crying No denying freedom Does not exist Bombs exploding Guns unloading Stones we’re throwing Fall to the killing field Hate can only create more hate Hate can only create more hate Hate can only create more hate Hate can only create more hate

Blindfolds and cigarettes Black hoods and camcorders televise homicide Soldiers in shallow graves Martyrs and thought police waiting to take you away Why don't you let it lay Won't you walk away Let it end today Why don't you let it go Land of democracy Land of hypocrisy Forced down our throats, the indescents of pleasure While violence and war deemed appropriate measures Land of morality Hand of brutality Kill on command over corporate profit Don't let them send you away Why don't you let it lay Won't you walk away Let it end today Why don't you let it go And we have such a long way to go But we've taken the wrong way to go There's one thing i want you to know There is something they don't want to show Why don't you let it lay Won't you walk away Let it end today Why don't you let it go

In walking sleep and faded sight In countless desperate steps Trudging crossed a dead end world Clawing to the depths Competing on the treadmill But grieving where they stand An ordinary circumstance An ordinary man They gathered all possession found They consummate their plans Bleeding at their fingers From digging with their hands They all congratulate themselves But nothing have they done Their vessels lined up on the shelves But empty every one The point of no return The closing of the door The coldest days of Winter The center of the storm Before the dust has settled down Before the spiral turns a twist Before the numbers of your bank account Are carved into your wrist One by one we'll walk away And watch the towers fall Before the season old in Winter cold Makes cretins of us all The turning of the world Brings coming of the dawn And all these days of darkness Will be forever gone

We're flying on the wings of faith We're flying on the wings of faith Don't let me down Don't let me down We're gliding on the winds of change We're gliding on the winds of change We're flying on a daydream The world is not what it seems Cause nothing ever stays the same Don't let me down Don't let me down We're gliding on the winds of change Don't let me down Don't let me down I want to hear you call my name

Climbing Climbing A mountain so cragged and tall Sure is a long way back down Flying Flying On toy rockets pointed at mars Sure is a long way back down We could find a second sun Or be burned on the way And loose another few Tomorrow's on its way Driving Driving On a road headed nowhere at all And it just keeps on going Waiting Waiting For the cold wind of winter to calm And it just keeps on blowing We could drive another mile We could wait one more day And loose another few Tomorrow's on it's way Do you find it kind of stifling Could be everything's not only what they're showing Do you find it kind of trifling Looks like everything is what they think they're owning (lies) Do you find it kind of criminal Do you think that it's the only thing they're planning for you Once we were giving Now we are taking We left a more beautiful world than we're making Once we were building Now we are breaking Time to clean up all the mess we've been making Lay down your hand grenades Throw down your rifles Now is the time to make peace with your rivals and Love Love Love Love Love We could fight another fight But it's all in vain And loose another few Tomorrow can explain We could drive another mile We could wait one more day And loose another few Tomorrow's on it's way

Angels of desolation Smile of cold blue cheer Bullets are falling from your wings Sons of the desecration Phantoms of all my fear Blood on the hands of modern kings Waiting for the answer Waiting for the answer Spiders that haunt the cradle Pick at the bones of my mind Thrusting their venom to my spine Caught in a world descending Lost in the darkest of all times And when the reign has ended light will brightly shine Take it all away Help me find a new day Take it all away Can't we find a better way Death on the wing ascending Saints of a wicked faith Cast a spell on all the world Take it all away Help me find a new day Take it all away Can't we find a better way Waiting for the answer Waiting for the answer Waiting for the answer Waiting on forever

The ghosts of my own song have names themselves no one Run through the flowers they say The hands of the dream wind that blows from beneath them Circle the hours away They offer a ride in their submarine dragonfly Brought me inside to a chair in her head The blind jester pilot, he smiles and he says that she knows where to go As he lies down instead I couldn't help noticing pilot began to dream Started me wondering time of the day The carousel sea horses picturesque circus dress flowing behind them Began their display The pantomime symphony slowly pretends to me Stopped for directions out of my dream Then one broke his silence, and pointed to me and said Just like a timepiece, keep circling, circling Blue for the sky The world only turns from far away Only blue from this high It feels like flying It feels like dying Far and away, the icy Sun is on the rise On the run They're choking on the smoking gun The swans have died Tomorrow's finally come Fly ... The harlequin juggler in porcelain masquerade Bicycle playing card joker in green The jack rabbit rocking horse pendulate back and forth Tick-tocking aperture carnival stream Then came time in which i began wondering The distance behind us inside of this dream The blind jester pilot, he woke and he said to me Just like the world, we keep circling, circling on Just like the time circles on ...

When we walk away Come the day that we're leaving here We can stop and stay on the way We can leave our fear Lady of rain Will we regain or decline Lady of rain Where is the sweet Summer wine It falls from the vine Where we're going to Everything's waiting for you What we're going through I believe must be untrue Lady of rain Will we attain the divine Lady of rain Where is the sweet Summer wine It falls from the vine If you only knew what to do You'd have no fear If you only knew what's inside of you It'd all be so clear Lady of rain Will we remain on the line Lady of rain Will we attain the divine Or fall from the vine
