My Friend, the Sky

Hello my friend
it's good to see you
another beautiful day
but then all of a sudden hatred falls from the sky
why?
Eclipsing the sun
Atoms and souls crushed by ash
We fall to the ground
I am now but the sand that falls through my finger tips
I once was a man
The blackness covers your face
I can barely see you
The car is covered in intelligence that once saw daylight
The trees burnt like matches that burn the cigarettes
And each day is new except for tomorrow which never saw the sun
Hello my friend
it's good to see you
(Hello my friend)
Hello my friend
it's good to see you
(Hello my friend)
Eclipsing the sun
Atoms and souls crushed by ash
We fall to the ground
I am now but the sand that falls through my finger tips
I once was a man
Hello my friend
Another beautiful day
and then the prayers of our enemies fall from heaven
Another beautiful day
and then hatred falls from the sky
and no one knows why

Like anybody ever got anywhere
sitting alone in the rain
We are here for a reason?
I'm not so sure
Human existence caused the extinction of the world
Can we hold it together?
Put aside our petty differences and become one
We will never be whole
Too many messiahs running around
Not knowing what to do
Too many martyrs
Prancing like jesters
If the end is so near
I embrace never having to see you again
We keep backtracking
Praying to God
Nothing's being done
We need to stop relying on Her and act on our own
We will be one
Hold on to your humanity
We will survive
Hold on to that mentality
We will get by
Too many messiahs running around
Not knowing what to do
Too many martyrs
Prancing like jesters
Save yourself
Save another
Hold him close
He is your brother
Look through me, in my heart
And then you will see
When you look further.
Like anybody ever got anywhere
sitting alone in the rain
We are here for a reason?
I'm not so sure
(I'm not so sure)
We can see the goodness in each other everyday
Look at me, my friend
It doesn't matter where we end
Only when we lived and loved
(Lived and loved)

How would you like to start your day
each day
the same way
Living your life without living at all
And all we can do is pray
Pray for a brighter day
But without initiative
Nothing will happen
I want to live in the here and now
I want to live each moment in the moment
Chasing the sun so the day never ends
Take leaps towards the future
So just believe.
Why does the sun set
Now?
I want to live in the here and now
I want to live each moment in the moment
Chasing the sun so the day never ends
(The Here and Now)
Chasing the sun so the day never ends
(The Here and Now)

I wished upon a star
that seemed to disintegrate with time
and all the ones that seemed too far
were impossible to find
I guess that’s the way life is
No expectations leads to no let downs
Now slip away
What lies behind the wall
After everything is known?
Discover your safe haven two blocks to the right
Oh it’s such a small world after all
Maybe I can change this world of mine
Maybe I’m just peeling stars off the sky
Now slip away
What lies behind the wall
After everything is known?

Speaking Backwards
05:22

Why would I tell you anything
It just goes in one ear and out the other
Never the less it gets us back on track
One mistake after the next,
the stress nearly broke my back
Fighting you all the way there
It never gets any easier
It couldn’t be any clearer
that you don’t care
My lips are sown shut
I am the muted man
Broken words
Cease to speak
(Watch your tongue and I’ll cross mine)
Be one to over look your neglect
It couldn’t be any clearer
that you don’t care
My lips are sown shut
I am the muted man
Broken words
Cease to speak
You seem to overlook
It couldn’t be any clearer that you don’t care.
