Falling (Learning to Fly)
It was never my intention to break your heart
But, from the start, I've been falling apart
I’m sorry to say, that I’m just a lost soul
But, I need you to know,
Oh, how I love you sooooo
Aaaaaaooooohhhhhhhh
But, can’t ya see, we’re falling down?
But, that we’re still falling
Means we’re still up in the sky
Soooooooooooooooooo,
Before we hit the ground
If we’d have a little hope
Maybe we’ll learn to fly
It was never my desire to bring you down
But, you fell for a king with a broken crown ...

Solipsism
Why’re you denying the Source of ALL creation?
What’re you trying to prove in your deviation?
Oh, can’t you see that there's obviously so much more?
Than the one you call "me," could ever dream on its own
All on your own
Tell me, what’ve you got against the God of ALL salvation?
Whether or not He is a “he” is beside the point…
Are we not dying to find some sort of sense of alleviation?
From all the world’s pain
To start over again
To be given another chance
Oh, who is telling you that you are ALL THAT IS? ...

Kismet
Come and climb aboard this sidereal express
It's moving ever toward your destiny (your destiny, your)
Scaling up the path, getting closer and closer to our true home
Everything that's happening is history (it's history)
And soon you’ll awaken from your slumber
To find that we are all but ONE in number
So, come and climb aboard your destiny (your destiny, your)
Come and climb aboard your destiny (your destiny)
Let us enter into a new dimension
Show the soul a whole new plane
In time,...

Consciousness Can't Die
There’s never an end end end
Where there’s never a beginning
You and I, my friend friend friend
Have we not always jus’ been living-la-living-la-living-la-la-la
Whoa whoa whoa
Oh, all of these identities are not who we are
They’re an archetypal being,
Always changing,
Our molecules are... rearranging
But Consciousness can’t die die die
And Truth can know no lie lie lie
Life cannot know death death death
And Consciousness can’t die, ee-I, ee-I, ee-I
No, Consciousness can’t die….
There’s no real place...
Where there’s never a beginning
You and I, my friend friend friend
Have we not always jus’ been living-la-living-la-living-la-la-la

Whatever You Dream
Stop acting like this is not what you wanted
All of your life, you have got what you wanted
Every last bit, it is just what you asked for
What more did you have in mind?
Oh, must you take every last thing for granted?
Tell me, when did you become so disenchanted?
Seek first the core of the source of your passion...
Yeah, seek and you will find
Whatever you do dream
Yeah, every little thing (x2)
Whatever you do dream
Oh, stop acting like this is not what you wanted
When every moment your wish is...

Everything You're Not
Maybe one day you'll realize
You've been so caught up in your own lies
You've forgotten it's all make-believe
Swallowed whole by all that you can see
Maybe one day, you'll stem the tide
But till then, you'll live from the outside
Looking in, you'll see the light of day
It's so close, and yet so far away
All you know, is all that you've been told
And everything you dream, is everywhere you've been
And all you believe in is all you can see
And everything you think about is everything you're not
Maybe one...

Tempting Fate
You're tempting fate
Attempting to be something great
You're tempting fate
In trying to be anything at all
And until you come to see that you already are
You’ll paradoxically never get that far
And keep tempting fate
Tempting fate
You're stunting your dreams
By not believing they're already true
You're torn at the seams, it seems you don't
Even believe in the real you
And until you realize who you truly are
You’ll lose sight of the light, and forget that you’re a star
So, keep...

Irrelevant
We set our own limitations
There is nothing in this world by which we're bound
And, though we're living in an alien nation
We tend to forget that everything is so profound
Building our own foundations,
There is nothing we believe that's not made so
And as a product of imagination,
So long as we think we're powerless, we'll lose all control
(But, only because we'd agreed that it was so)
But, it'll all be made irrelevant in the end
It'll all be made irrelevant in the end
It'll all be made irrelevant in the end ...

Wings of Eternity
What if...
Oh, won't you hear me out
What if...
Oh, won't you hear me out
What if
What if we've lived forever
And everyone that's come and gone
Is simply as a shedding feather (A shedding feather)
On the wings of eternity spreading out for you and me
Oh, what if
What if we're not even really here
What if
What if we're not even really here
(But), we're somewhere else entirely
That is nowhere at all
(interlude)
What if
What if we live on beyond...
Oh, won't you hear me out

Begin Again (Tomorrow)
Show me a brand new day (x2)
Show me a brand new day
So I can be a brand new man tomorrow
Help me fight away my dismay, my anger, my worries, and my sorrow
Show me another way and surely I'll follow
Show me a brand new day
And I'll begin again tomorrow
Take me by the hand
Show me to my promised land
Help me understand
Where I come from, who I am
Tell me what to do
And surely I'll listen
Which path should I pursue
In order to fulfill my mission
Won't you be my...
