The Weight of Doubt

An iron will to fortify
Feeling loved is a favorite lie
In your mind you can count on it still
To deny
What you can't accept as truth
In plain sight
You can bury it all
Under the weight of doubt
You can cover it up
So no one hears a sound
Herein lies the paradox
The universe it never stops
And you can't tell me that you're a part
Of a plot
When the inconsistency
Is all we've got
You can bury it all
Under the weight of doubt
You can cover it up
So no one hears a sound

In The Night

Giving everything away
Could someone show us when to start the process over again
You already chose that day
It's getting harder to discern the changing of the seasons
Maybe this was a mistake
And by the summer they'll be gone to celebrate their freedom
Are you running from your fate
I know anyone would fall apart in your position
In the night when it eats you alive
In the night when there's no where to hide
Your money lost don't mean a thing
But what's the cost of autonomy devoid of feeling
In the night when it eats you alive
In the night when there's no where to hide
You thought something would change
You thought something would change
You thought something would change
Until you finally saw
Everything is the same
Everything is the same
Everything is the same
It's no different at all

To Keep a Dream Alive

What's it gonna take now
To keep a dream alive
With all that fear in your eyes
Reunion on the front line
To rule the city life
And to take your crown
Maybe you should wake up
While you're still in flight
Before you start to drown
Ears are ringing so loud
And I can't keep it out
Yeah I can't keep it out
In the back of a cop car
You gotta scream and shout
You gotta figure it out
Regenerate somehow
And everything's just fine
Who should I be this time
What's it gonna take now
To keep a dream alive
To keep a dream alive
