Help me I'm going down deep There's a grey wall that's keeping me from me I can't seem to see the inbetween Of what I want and what I've come to need Well it's gonna be a long night This can't keep crawling in my dreams I can't breathe I can't see what's right right in front of me As the hours pass time goes slowly The thing that gets me is just not knowing With each thought Every word This rabbit hole keeps growing Will you save my soul I'm sacrificing control And then the truth will show I do all this for you Speechless meanings become unspoken The words are here but I've got to be shown them I think I'm going blind I think I'm going blind but I've got the vision I'm at the horizon and it's almost over Almost over I'm at the horizon and it's almost over It's time to release me I might be blind but I've got the vision I might be blind but I've got the vision Release me from me I might be blind but I've got the vision I might be blind Just give it to me.

What you want and what you need Should never supersede whatever you believe Cause I was left a broken home With nowhere else to go Forever The end Alone Cause I am nothing but hellbent I'm out of element And feeling like a wretch Cause we are drawn by temp of greed To be one of the free Whatever that may mean Now we do what we want whether right or wrong Just to bring a little life to these old dry bones Just to have a little piece of what could be gold Just to be something else and to break the mold Draw the line Redefine It keeps us alive on the inside Hold the truth and we will shine the way To a greater frame of mind You can find me waiting Over here on the bright side Where it's all for the taking Yeah you'll never be denied You can find me waiting Over here on the bright side Where it's all what you make it Yeah a greater frame of mind Draw the line Redefine It keeps us alive on the inside Hold the truth and we will shine the way To a greater frame of mind

I’ve told you once I’ve told you twice I am fine - I am fine- I am fine - I am fine I’m alright just let it go I can’t believe what I do not see And I don’t see any reason why your help is gonna benefit me Cause I try and I try and I try to pull myself out of this hole Only the willing will find their way Say that you’re willing There’s no knowing of what you might’ve been No ones changing you There goes another try for you I’ve been there once I’ve been there twice It goes on and on and on I’m always living a lie Isn’t everyone I’m always thinking of more that me I am hopelessly pursuing some idea of what could possibly be Still I try and I try and I try But something’s gotta give soon Before I turn the other way The Almsman Circuit Never endings never been I just need a little of your faith to pull me out Pull me out - Pull me I just need a little bit of change Pull me out - Pull me I just need somewhere else to stay Pull me out - Pull me I just need a little of your change Pull me out - Pull me I just need a little of the fame Pull me out - Pull me I just need to sit around all day Pull me out - Pull me I just need a little of your faith There’s no knowing of what you might’ve been No ones changing you There goes another try for you

If you’ve got the dream I’ve got the in kid Bright lights and scenes you’ve never seen before Just have to sign on the dotted line to see what your future has in store They promised pretty things We couldn’t see through the haze This is all we have now We’ll do whatever it takes to have our voices heard If we were given the chance to live it again all over We wouldn’t change a thing Oh - Oh - Oh - Oh You can’t stop it - No Oh - Oh - Oh - Oh You can’t stop it - No This is all we have now We’ll do whatever it takes to have our voices heard If we were given the chance to live it again all over We wouldn’t change a thing This is all we have now We’ll do whatever it takes to have our voices heard If we were given the chance to live it again all over We wouldn’t change a thing

Happy heart and home is what we need to keep it straight - Oh Keep my hands clean and dot my i’s Learn to always read between the lines - Oh Well there’s something out there that’s bigger than this We’ll be there when we see this through We see this through If we only knew what the truth could do Don’t give up hope Stick to the plan We’ll pull this together and you’ll understand You want it well you’ve got it You’ve got my heart There’s something out there There’s something out there We’ll be there when we see this through And after all this effort you would think we’d catch a break Eleven years and all the names on the walls have changed I can only speak for us when I say to you Holding out was the only option that we knew My father told me “Don’t you ever give up son, cause if you do you’ll be just like everyone” My father told me “Don’t you ever give up son.” cause if I do I’ll be just like everyone.
