The Question 02:19
Correlate initiatives or accept the monster from within, Is he asleep, or waking up? It is too hard to tell in these times, Will sweet rejection be avenged? Once again? That is the question, A matter of perspective is another option to ignorance, Yes, it is bliss or, so they say, What will they mark upon your grave? And the question is to be, or not be? To be, or not to be, that is the question, To be, or not to be? Another self-reflection, you see, or choose not to see, Judged by complexion, Set it free and now it's time to see, It's so hard to watch the one's we love, sometimes we learn and sometimes we don't grow, and that is why we do our best not to give the power to these questions unsaid.

Mea Culpa 03:13
Wherever you choose to stand, vulnerable is the hurting man, Inside his eyes tonight, continually open wide for you to see, will you choose to be? Will we really ever know? Sing, Mea Culpa, Women crying dressed in black, the dolphins wish is to meet a man, Yet every time I look into your eyes, I learn to die inside, Over and over again, when will this ever end? Will we really ever know? Sing, Mea Culpa, (Reprise)

Never so high, than when I'm on my knees, (An intercessory wish) Humbled myself, just to gain some strength, (An intercessory wish) Lift me up, like the dove, that was released and set me free, so that I may see if these waters have started to recede, Because I've been drowning, Wake me up because I must be dreaming, (An intercessory wish) I'm out of the box because I stopped the digging, (An intercessory wish) Lift me up, like the dove that was released and set me free, so that I may see if these waters have started to recede, Because I've been drowning and because faith is a sight unseen, I am a visionary and I will see right through this, Or am I dreaming? Now close your eyes and throw in your coin, because a wishing well only works when you don't tell, Lift me up like the dove, that was released and set me free, so that I may see if these waters have started to recede, Lift me up like the dove, that was released and set me free so that I may know see.

You are one who will understand the wonderful secret, frightful things you will master, why things are and why they continue to be, Meditate on the secrets of the way things are and investigate them at all time, only then, then may you know the secret of the way things are, in this world, Present and potent are these marvelous secrets, terrorized is the holder of why things are and why they continue to be, Reflect on all of the secrets of the way things are and investigate them at all times, only then may you know the secret of the way things are, You are one who must impose discipline on your lips, And your tongue is a double door, when years begin and when eras end, Why it was? And what will become of the sound that is soon to be heard, by the ears of those who will know the truth, Of the secret of the way things are, in this world.

Someone Else 02:27
Time has passed on and the conflict is change, but still, we outlast it, Because too many lies only complicate, I believe in what I feel, No need to lead you, then I'll walk with you, maybe I'm asleep, but there's a part of me that is left behind and I entrust it here to you, do what you will with me, Searching to find what you want the world to see, we lose ourselves along the way, And yet repeatedly you do your best to be there, I find myself in some one else, No need to lead you, then I'll walk with you, maybe I'm asleep, but there's a part of me that is left behind and I entrust it here to you, do what you will with me, Do what you will. (Reprise)

Dreams 02:29
Turning our dreams into gold, the precious metal we love to hold, but once it is reached will it become everything that we only loathe to be? Turning our dreams into gold, follow the rainbow, make a mold, but once it is seized will we succomb to everything that we only loathe to be? I envy you for what I am not, I envy you for what I have not, Turning our dreams into gold. Turning, our dreams.

Chaperone 04:28
Yeah, there is a place where I like to go, when I need something to show for it, I'm learning to swim, Can you hear the words? No, you can't hear. Open your heart and then unlock the mind, closing your eyes turn the key to right, now hold it tight, Can you see the writing on the walls of my cell? Chaperone, these words are not my own, Can you read the lining on the walls of my heart, Chaperone, this world is not my home, Let them hear the words, Oh, can you hear? Closing the door, for this night is not mine, closing your eyes turn the key to the right, now hold it tight, Can you see the writing on the walls of my cell? Chaperone, these words are not my own, Can you read the lining on the walls of my heart? Chaperone, this world is not my home, Can you hear the words that are coming out of your mouth? Can you see the writing on the walls of my cell? Chaperone, these words are not my own, Can you read the lining on the walls of my heart? Chaperone, this world is not my home.

Lost My Way 04:36
Paving the road to hell now, There was nothing to break my fall, not a branch to grab onto, there was no one in place of you, not a cushion to rest my head, I've lost my way and I can only serve you with my best intentions, Reaching out with my best try, consequence of my own failures, reaching out with my mind's eye, consequence of my own self-destruction, I've lost my way and I can only serve you with my best intentions, No more narcissistic visions, that I cannot allow myself to do, no more thinking about you and yours, that I cannot do, No, I am not here for you, I've lost my way and I can only serve with my best intentions, Paving the road to hell now.

Memories 03:07
How can we ever forget those who make sacrifices? That helped save broken lives, in a time of need, They would always lead us from the beast's mercy, that burns as fire, Doing what they loved just to save lives in need, Their lives carry us through the darkest days, Oh, they have been lost, but they have never been forgotten, smiling down upon us from the heaven's above, Doing what they loved just to save lives in need, Oh, the memories will never fade.
