Walk the Earth

"Walk the Earth"
Sunshine is a metaphoric ride
Caught in the middle of a lightning strike
We're all floating along, changing with the tides
On the front line in the back of our minds
With a battle song
That will lead us on

And we walk the Earth
With our heads held high
For the life we want
Yeah, we've got to fight
Yeah, we walk the Earth
Like champions
With heart and soul
Like champions

Our conscience weighs on all of our minds
So we lay our hearts right on the line
We keep pushing on, holding steady and strong
Knocking 'em down just to make a home
Like a battle hymn
That will lead us on

And we walk the Earth
With our heads held high
For the life we want
Yeah, we've got to fight
Yeah, we walk the Earth
Like champions
With heart and soul
Like champions

And we walk the Earth
With our heads held high
For the life we want
Like champions

"The Siege"
In the mud horses fall I can hear
Their masters calling
Their voices still belong
On the cross flames and flesh but in our hearts
We are blessed
We stand in fields so strong

We can't let go of this rage and rule
For another day we can take no fools
From this siege our hope has sprung
The revolution has to be won

Spears and rocks light the crimson clouds
As the rain falls down
We are standing proud
Growling voices in the mist and fog
In the darkest night
They're crying out for God

We can't let go of this rage and rule
For another day we can take no fools
Yeah, from this siege our hope has sprung
The revolution has to be won

We can't let go of this rage and rule
For another day we can take no fools
'Cause we harmonize without conclusion
The revolution has to be won

"Kingdom United"
At Runnymede the barons came
To force King John to bend his knee
They made him sign his life away
And so was born democracy

From Agincourt to Waterloo
Each battle fought to keep us free
With every passing year it grew
The flower of sweet democracy

Now those words like history will fade
On ancient parchment faint to see
And as we sign our lives away
Then so will die democracy

From the meadows to the towns
Flags will all be taken down
And on the horizon we will see
The sunset on democracy

"Pictures"
I'm out here gently drifting
We get so lost in the past
Letting go of the future
Knowing yesterday won't last

So I'll cut the cable
The time is now, we've made it safe so far
Escape into the light of the moon and the shooting stars
To where you are

The clock hands stall their ticking
Maybe the universe is numb
Venus shining clear and pleasant
Among the mother's many suns

So I'll make up stories
To put the darkness in disguise
Escape into the light of the moon and the shooting stars
To where you are

So I'll paint a picture
Watch the colors as they slowly dry
Escape into the light of the moon and the shooting stars
To where you are

"Election Day"
Where do I stand, what do I say
What is there left at the end of the day to explain
Again and again
I'll think of something then I'll make up my mind
The curtain is closing
I don't really wanna be falling behind
This time

Running away with the thought
That life's gonna change
It's a banquet of lies
I count down the hours, the minutes
No matter how hard that I try
I know we all act surprised
There's no running away
On Election Day

Well, I think I know but then I guess that I don't
How can I make up my mind and still vote and remain
In your game
Maybe it's nothing but it could change my life
When the airheads are running away
With all the good things I like
Hey, where do I sign

Running away with the thought
That life's gonna change
It's a banquet of lies
As they roll out the news
Painted in red, then painted in blue
I know we all act surprised
There's no running away
On Election Day

Running away with the thought
That life's gonna change
It's a banquet of lies
I count down the hours, the minutes
No matter how hard that I try
I know we all act surprised
There's no running away
On Election Day

"Wolves"
Wolves at your door
Long dark shadows they throw
Wolves at your door
They will kill for what you know

And I can't trust nobody
Or maybe no one can trust me
It gets worse when you know things
And the fear runs deep

Wolves at your door
Making monsters of them all
Wolves at your door
Seeing monsters in us all

And I can't face nobody
Or maybe no one can face me
So damn hard when you've seen things
And the truth won't set you free

Wolves at your door

"GTO"
Come on, let's burn the open road
Got no time to waste
Come on, let's live the easy life
'Cause time's tickin' away
Away

You're the only one I know
Turns me up and makes me feel alive
Yeah, light it up, we own the night
Come on, baby, make me feel alive
Yeah, make me feel alive

Come on, let's burn it to the ground
Ain't nobody in our way
With all the lonely people going round and round
Don't you know we've got it made
We've got it made

You're the only one I know
Turns me up and makes me feel alive
Light it up, we own the night
Come on, baby, make me feel alive
Make me feel alive

"Haze"
Been burning up for the centuries
Leaving me in the clear
My sweet escape for to which we've made
Watch the Holy appear

Come in
Crawl in
Into the haze

Haze

Open up a room deep inside my head
No worries of time
Just slow it down and you get there fast
Get into my mind

Come in
Crawl in
Into the haze

Haze

"Whenever You're Ready"
You keep it coming heavy and hot
Keep it running, give it all you've got
Lay it on the line
Paved the way with overtime
Always put the hours in
For our sweet fantasy
Well, I'm right where you first found me
Whenever you're ready

Yeah, you keep it moving, you keep it strong
No sense in losing any chance we've got
Oooh, with every drop of sweat
The closer you get
To everywhere you ever wanted to be
Well, I'm still here where you first found me
Whenever you're ready

Oh, with every drop of sweat
The closer you get
To everywhere you ever wanted to be
Well, I'm still here where you first found me
Whenever you're ready

"Turn to Dust"
All the things I never said written down
In letters never sent but stashed away
And all the time I didn't spend with you
Is forever gone but not today

There is no need for hesitation
The end is the same for all of us
We turn to dust

Crazy how regrets and guilt remain
And constantly control the subtleties
Through years the tears and skeletons erode
We try to take it back but the clock ticks on

Like centuries of fires forever burning
Like mountains of Ore have gone to rust
We turn to dust

Throughout our lives situations change
So many things I didn't say
And when I'm gone to whatever fate
You'll carry me on

There is no need for hesitation
The end is the same for all of us
We turn to dust
