Wake Me Up 04:49
One single moment, A lifetime of dreams, In a city corrupted, And we just close our eyes, And return to our routines. Wake me up, wake me up, Open my eyes so I can see things clearer. Wake me up, wake me up, I'm sick of seeing all my days tick over. My conscience is spinning, Around a wheel of regime, But the spokes have been broken, And it just clouds our minds, Concealing all we feared. Wake me up, wake me up, Open my eyes so I can see things clearer. Wake me up, wake me up, I'm sick of seeing all my days tick over. I'll impact the world with my vision, Complete every lasting ambition, I wont succeed if I don't try. Wake me up, wake me up, Open my eyes so I can see things clearer. Wake me up, wake me up, I'm sick of seeing all my days tick over.

Take Over The World Standing or staring, And given time to think, What’s life without the joys of a world full of mystique? Hi it’s nice to meet you I don’t advise you blink I’m gunna rip apart the rule book before you even speak. Its time, goodbye, Wont ever let is pass me by. Sit tight, and watch me take over the world, Hold tight, I’m gunna take over the world. I’m paving a way, To earn a worthy place Your life’s not scripted for you in the human race. You now I wont falter, At the champion chase, Or in a car that’s underwater fighting for breathing space. Its time, goodbye, Wont ever let is pass me by. Sit tight, and watch me take over the world, Hold tight, I’m gunna take over the world. Sit tight, and watch me take over the world, World. Sit tight, and watch me take over the world, Hold tight, I’m gunna take over the world. (cuz in reality)

Unaligned 03:57
Unaligned I can make my layers thin, So my body shivers. Don’t you feel all the same things? Why do you not remember? With every move you make I just get closer, With every sip I take it makes me sober, We cannot both walk this road forever, Forever. This cycle it makes no sense, You mask the truth with your false pretence, I’ll start again, one last time, Out of sight and unaligned Unaligned, unaligned These are long hard nights, Please close my eyes. Is this the right time to begin? Ignite my burning embers. This cycle it makes no sense, You mask the truth with your false pretence, Ill start again, one last time, Out of sight and unaligned Unaligned, unaligned I’m hearing something new, (I’ll follow it) So listen don’t assume, (Discover it) I’m hearing something new, (I’ll follow it) So listen don’t assume. (Discover it) This cycle it makes no sense, You mask the truth with your false pretence, Ill start again, one last time, Out of sight and unaligned Unaligned, unaligned

Stride by Stride You can’t control the things that slip away, This is no time to be counting down your days, An open mind and open book, You gave it time and it rips you up, Yet you still don’t get what you deserve, So if you throw sand in my eyes, You might see my ugly side, Blind for two seconds but then I might, Throw it back at you wrapped in my lies. My lies. And I’m unlike you, And I’m… It’s a sight for sore eyes, So I feel like you should heed from my advice, No one will give you a lifeline, If you are weak this world will eat you all alive. Are we standing? (Standing) Reflecting? Are we changing? (Changing) Or conforming to a… World full of people that will, Never ever realise, We cannot turn back time, Erase the past or change how we feel inside, A world full of people that will, Never ever compromise Don’t want to waste my time, So watch your back cuz ill match you stride by stride Watch your back cuz ill match you stride by stride, Watch your back cuz ill match you stride by stride, And I’m unlike you, And I’m… A second, a minute, A wasteland your image, Of a dream non-existent, What do you truly believe in? Are we standing? (Standing) Reflecting? Are we changing? (Changing) Or conforming to a… World full of people that will, Never ever realise, We cannot turn back time, Erase the past or change how we feel inside, A world full of people that will, Never ever compromise Don’t want to waste my time, So watch your back cuz ill match you stride for stride Watch your back cuz ill match you stride by stride, Watch your back cuz ill match you stride by stride,

The Choice 04:42
Will I ever find the answers to my questions, That are filtered through the system of our lives, I will try to lead my life as an example, Of how to turn my water into wine. We are mortals in this, We don’t have time to give. So why are you making me have to choose, Between a burning furnace and a noose, And how are you managing to pull through, When I’m still struggling through, But you were never there to hold my hand in times of need my heart just bled, Your words meant just as little way back then, So why are you making me have to choose? I am rooted to but distant from your aura, And sometimes I still long to see your face, But the hangover we had from that November, Reminds me of what I cannot replace. We are mortals in this, We don’t have time to give. So why are you making me have to choose, Between a burning furnace and a noose, And how are you managing to pull through, When I’m still struggling through, But you were never there to hold my hand in times of need my heart just bled, Your words meant just as little way back then, So why are you making me have to choose?

Wakening 01:30
I breathe in, And i'm listening, Because I'm learning, To live again.

Puppet 04:44
Puppet We’re not the same, Be the one to lead the wave of change. Rapture or fame? The ignorance keeps driving me insane. Step by step, Move up the chain, You have so much more to gain. Break the links, Make your own name, Pick up the torch and lead the way. Years from now it won’t mean a thing, Don’t think about it, Try break the habit. Change the one who pulls the strings, Don’t think about it, You’re not a puppet. Pick up your feet, Don’t spend all your life riding backseat. Lost or alive, Don’t conform living your life deprived. Step by step, Move up the chain, You have so much more to gain. Break the links, Make your own name, Pick up the torch and lead the way. Years from now it won’t mean a thing, Don’t think about it, Try break the habit. Change the one who pulls the strings, Don’t think about it, You’re not a puppet. Were not the same. Were not the same. Were not the same. Were not the same. Years from now it won’t mean a thing, Don’t think about it, Try break the habit. Change the one who pulls the strings, Don’t think about it, You’re not a puppet. Years from now it won’t mean a thing, Don’t think about it, Try break the habit. Change the one who pulls the strings, Don’t think about it, You’re not a puppet. Its time, Its time, Its time, Well its time. Its time to take the reins, No more living life in vain, Its time to take the reins.
