Seeking out adversity I go to war against despair and Courage is not without fear But the way you rise above it You say it’s only by the faith of god But to that I remain objected It’s the personal struggle The war within us That’s conquered by the mind You say we’ll never know You say we’ll never understand The sound of triumph Reaching out from within our hearts The sound of triumph It’s burned deep from the very start You challenge all my passions You challenge my dedication And say my words will never break Through to the conflicted So what are you gonna do And what are you gonna say When hell marches with you And all stand against us Will you fight for another day

October Sky 02:17
I’d give it all A plea for life For one more sight An October sky I felt the winds change I watched the sun set And all the trees go from green to lifeless And in the blink Of an eye I saw my world die I stand to make sure Your memory remains And in song I write to keep you alive It’s like ten-thousand knives laying waste to my heart And in the lessons I learned from you You were everything I am not In morning walks Til night time falls So with this love I hope to repay you And in song I’ll keep you alive I hear the chorus of the wind, it says you live October sky I will never let your death be in vain I will never let you walk away A rose in time’s unforgiving crawl Searching for your face In its petal’s endless fall That sun still flaunts a dying light in the same October sky

I would break the hands of time For one more chance To make this right I would drain Every last drop of blood from my wrist If the world would stop in place And give me the hope to rectify this In desperate times I live by desperate means And you’re with me like dust to the wind I hope you’ll still follow me wherever I go Ive took for granted the time we’ve spent I’ve bit the barrel then choked on it Hoping that the fear would swallow my pride In a house of cards that’s never stood right In desperate times i love by desperate means And you are all I need So pick up the pieces Swallow your pride In becoming a person you’ve trapped in a lie I hope you’ll still follow me wherever I go

First Stone 01:13
I walk this road My cross to bear And for everyone who stands There’s a Judas there Go with the wind Find where it takes you In the end We’ll know what fucking breaks you I walk this road My cross to bear And for everyone who stands There’s a Judas there Go with the wind Find where it takes you In the end We cannot save you Nailed where I began
6.
Turn Traitor 01:37
Mistreated, abused Torn into pieces Your perfect world ceases to breathe That's the risk you chose to take When the bare minimum was all you gave There’s no substance There’s no message There’s no reason to heed your lesson Throwing it away for everyone to see The tides will turn Sacrificing There’s no substance There’s no message There’s no reason To heed your lesson In and out like all the rest Thrown to the wayside You could never commit
7.
Slip through the cracks, fall out of sight Always talking about the next time Your words meant nothing I always knew Through thick and thin by process of you The downward spiral, it all starts here Slipping and falling, hoping for a hand But reach for me I’ll retract Because where you go means no turning back No turning back
8.
Call to Arms 03:33
Let it fall And wash away all our troubled past Years and years of a suffering world With only yourself to blame In troubled times I wont budge, deny The choice was theirs to make in this world it’s do or die Never with a double take Who will stand with me When all have fallen Where can I fall to And who can I trust Who will stand with me When all have fallen When the tables are turned and the cards are stacked I know that the rain will come wash away I know that I’ll watch it fall I know it’ll take me for who I am To see the weak ones fall My strength will pay off, time and time again If I can stand true, true until the end When no one's by my side, I’ll bite the hand that feeds And this path I chose to carve By what you call a dying breed I will stand against the grain March with my sword And as I cast my final stone, I die knowing it’s my own I know that the rain will come wash away I know that I’ll watch it fall I know it’ll take me for who I am To see the weak ones Fall
