Track Name: Pericles
Where they buried me
so high above the trees
I thought of how they'd know
of where my bones would go

Sweetly as I dream
of Peloponnesian scenes
to think like Pericles
and carry his pride with me

And if you wanna know where I have been
just look inside yourself and speak within

And no, I won't go
and no, I won't go there
living deep inside is mounds of fear
and no, I won't get
no, I won't get
caught living a disgrace

Freely as they go
scraps of me to and fro
my muscles spasming
pumping pit through pulpy streams

However they'd see fit
when we're laced with lover's spit
Pull back my arm, fold it back in two
and fall into the armistice
Track Name: Colombia
Living in Colombia again
Thinking I could never have no friends
You make it so hard to agree
Not seein' eye to eye with me
How much longer, longer can this take?

I figure I'm alone in this
Nobody who shares the loathe of it
I wonder how you sleep at night
knowing what you've done in spite
Stealing loads of fool's gold

January's coming way too fast
predicting your year's worth before it's come to pass
but I could never, I could never do your job
for forever, for forever I'd blow my top

Now I can see now I can see now

Don't wanna live a lie
and ever wonder why my name wasn't called at all
and why I built this childish wall

And then I'll do a dance
People will clap their hands because they know
I'm not small at all

Now I can see now I can see now
Track Name: Joy
I won't cry, won't shed no tears because I know the end has gotta be near.
Boys don't cry, we stand real tall. It never felt like my final day at all.
Time's getting tough, they go and tell you to straighten up.

And though my thoughts may be few and wearing keeps me prepared,
but I know that I'm feeling it, feeling it.
I know, this could be happening, happening.
I know, that joyfulness, it comes in the end.

And when they come for me I'll be standing by your backyard tree,
built of wooly oak and a place where the kids would sing;
"A smile for a smile, a trade is a trade, that life could be my life that I just made"

And I know that I'm feeling it, feeling it.
I know, this could be happening, happening.
I know, that joyfulness, it comes in the end.

But I know that I'm feeling it, feeling it.
I know, this could be happening, happening.
I know, that joyfulness, it comes in the end.

It comes in the end.
Track Name: Fate Song
When I'm waiting for my fate to come
There's not another living soul around
Live sedated, without eyes open
My fingers are crossed while their arms are folded

Try too hard to understand it
Try too hard to make things worse
Try too hard, they reprimand you
Try too hard and things fall through

Give me a chance and I'll prove it to you
Talk becomes slow, while I envelop you
Granted a push with electrical speed
Trying to dodge you, while I'm trying to leave

Why would you ever come home empty handed?
I thought we taught you better than ever
Singing songs of romance and the time you broke your arm
Guess I'll have to just take it easy and make a little time
Track Name: Only in the Sun
You are searching for something that isn't there
Hoping someone shakes some sense into that head

Thoughts of violence, crowds are beating up your friends
Some are hollow
Those who follow aren't aware of the reasons

And when I find a peace of mind
would you care enough to slap some sense into me?

They'll keep dancing 'round you, tie a rope around your ankles
Just wait a minute more, life can't come for you any quicker

Worn bandana, wrap your health around my head
Smash a lite brite, take a ripe bite of peaches, plums, and pears, what have you

And when I find a peace of mind
would you care enough to slap some sense into me?
Only in the sun you'd grasp a hold of ourselves
Finally turn the wanting into something that we really need
Track Name: Seeing Light
I see the light, it's coming fast
The things I do just to make things last
Well, the fire in your eyes is way too strong
All I have to do is move along

I'm seeing, I'm seeing light.
Track Name: Fate Song (Heart)
When I'm waiting for my fate to come
There's not another living soul around
Live sedated, without eyes open
My fingers are crossed while their arms are folded

Try too hard to understand it
Try too hard to make things worse
Try too hard, they reprimand you
Try too hard and things fall through

Give me a chance and I'll prove it to you
Talk becomes slow, while I envelop you
Granted a push with electrical speed
Trying to dodge you, while I'm trying to leave

Why would you ever come home empty handed?
I thought we taught you better than ever
Singing songs of romance and the time you broke your heart
Guess I'll have to just take it easy and make a little time
Track Name: Pericles (Glamstick Remix)
If they buried me
so high above the trees
I thought of how they'd know
of where my bones would go

Sweetly as I dreamed
of Peloponnesian scenes
to think like Pericles
and carry his pride with me

And if you wanna know where I have been
just look inside yourself and speak within

No, I won't go there
Just look inside yourself and speak within.

Oh, I'm never coming home
I'm never coming home
Oh, I ain't ever coming home
Oh no, I don't mind, never coming back.
You can hear me, I don't know mind (wanna know).
