My Own Mind 05:36

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp I see it coming round that feeling once again The seasons change and so it's time to ride the wind The inner fury storm creation on the wing Setting down the other side away from foolish pride Rhythm set to human standard pushing like a blade Bringing patterns to the light knowing it won't fade Blades of fire seething with the force of hidden thoughts Fooling those who fail to see the folly they have bought I feel the calling of possibilities The universe is full of many mysteries Shoring up weakness jumping through my thoughts Seeking out truth beyond what's been taught I need control over my own mind Formulas and phantom fears tearing at my soul Constraints of time and pride a constant push and pull Late is better than never but sooner would be fun Nobody said it was time to run I missed the starting gun I feel the calling of possibilities The universe is full of many mysteries Shoring up weakness jumping through my thoughts Seeking out truth beyond what's been taught I feel the calling of possibilities The universe is full of many mysteries Shoring up weakness jumping through my thoughts Seeking out truth beyond what's been taught I need control over my own mind

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp and Joe Purrenhage I see it The way of breaking free I feel it Holding back my need I wonder When I'll be free I know it Won't be too long now Something in my eyes Makes me realize What I want to be Always breaking free I hear it Knocking at my door I want it That and so much more I have it Life drive within me Things that hold me down Always losing ground Now it's time for me To See what I can be Breaking Free Breaking Free Breaking Free Again No freedom To be what I can be No Movement How can that be free No Safety Bound up in our fears No Human We all have shed some tears Something in my eyes Makes me realize What I want to be Always breaking free The Loss of Time that slips away The Gain of Good times in our day The Balance Riding out this wave Things that hold me down Always losing ground Now it's time for me To See what I can be Breaking Free Breaking Free Breaking Free Again Believing I'm the only one Retreat from Those who'd do me harm Attacking Barriers in my way Surviving All the things they say Something in my eyes Makes me realize What I want to be Always breaking free Breaking Free Breaking Free Breaking Free Again Breaking Free Breaking Free Breaking Free Again

Keeping Up With Time 03:23

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp The seas of time do I sail If I try I may fail If I don’t my soul’s for sale Go into underneath and find All the hidden lines Below the apathy of life The inner strife will heal I need to know it for sure The feelings of pure Release all the gore Reflecting back on all that’s been My senses start to shine Hallowed the halls I have seen My Prescient Dreams I’ve seen the times of pure satisfying joy Visions of wilderness ever since I was a boy Seeking the answers untapped within my mind Blasting along just keeping up with time The crippled thoughts in my mind Are lost and unkind Won’t leave me behind Below the dreams we always lose Is the real world Cooped up inside we all lose sight Of the outside world I’ve seen the times of pure satisfying joy Visions of wilderness ever since I was a boy Seeking the answers untapped within my mind Blasting along just keeping up with time

Without a Reason Why 03:47

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp Looking for peace of mind Up here where everything is fine and free It’s where I want to be Clear blue water stretches out Fine cool breeze clears my mind out of the things That make me go insane I see it right before my eyes The freedom to give it one more try A sense of life without a reason why Leaves of trees flash in the breeze Summertime is the time to call it out And pull it back again Cicadas singing in the sun Strike a chord that’s primal within everyone Who’s ever been in love I see it right before my eyes The freedom to give it one more try A sense of life without a reason why I see it right before my eyes The freedom to give it one more try A sense of life without a reason why

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp Walking around outside I feel that This could be my day The great expanse of space above me Blows my mind away Seasons change while birds will sing Songs of yesterday Something inside makes me wonder Walking around today Mountains high up in the sky Walking around I think my my my Sanctuary of living dreams Loving you today Mountains high up in the sky Walking around I think my my my Sanctuary of living dreams Loving you today Walking around outside I know that This will be my day The great expanse of space above me Blows my mind away Seasons change while birds will sing Songs of yesterday Something inside makes me wonder Walking around today

Melancholy Days 05:32

Lyrics by Daryl Ropp I don’t feel what I should There’s so much in life that’s good My fate follows me round like a dark clould Ask for nothing, receiving just that Set the bar high still coming up flat No I didn’t do all that I could Now there’s nowhere to go Can’t find love it’s all so up tight No one wants to do what is right Dead is the world that I once knew I can feel it in my veins Things may never be the same Entering a new dark phase These melancholy days I see time as if it was lost Don’t want to feel there’s so big a cost Can’t find a thing that isn’t the way I saw within my eyes I want life to be as it is So hard to love but know how to live See all the words that I just can’t say I can feel it in my veins Things may never be the same Entering a new dark phase These melancholy days Life is flowing in my veins Things I love still remain Passing through a bleak dark phase These melancholy days

Outside Pressure 03:41

Lyrics by Joe Purrenhage As I wander down the road I wonder where to go Something starts to push on me and makes me want to know Building up outside of me as if I will implode Pushing inward I push outward I get up some energy to push against the the wall Resistance only makes me stronger now I make the call I let it take hold of me and start to take the fall Pushing inward I push outward Twisting, turning and feeling the burning Pushing, pulling as if I’m drowning Wearing, tearing the Outside Pressure Outside Pressure Outside Pressure Pushing inward I push outward Twisting, turning and feeling the burning Pushing, pulling as if I’m drowning Wearing, tearing the Outside Pressure Outside Pressure Outside Pressure

Lyrics by Joe Purrenhage Got this stupid guy in front of me and he doesn’t doesn’t want to see the world Standing here trying to do my thing and he wasn’t wasn’t going to give it a whirl Gotta pass to the other side of a moment moments won’t be here for long No stranger daze gonna stop me now cause I’ve got to got to get on to this song I’m driving, I am driving I’m driving, driving to get to somewhere I’m driving, I am driving I’m driving, driver be aware Chasing lanes in a stop and go doesn’t make sense since you’re not going to there Check the phone cause an accident ‘cause their mind went went somewhere other than here Looking forward to the open road where I can I can be mobile again Hold on to my thoughts and dreams where I’ll see See a way to let it begin I’m driving, I am driving I’m driving, driving to get to somewhere I’m driving, I am driving I’m driving, driver be aware I’m going to get away from here pass on to the other side I need to be free and clear I’m running so far and wide When I speed away from here It’s a long way to ride There’s not a soul for a mile ahead and she doesn’t doesn’t fill the space in between May be stuck in a daydream again and she couldn’t couldn’t find her way back again She makes a move to the inside lane and I pray that pray that nobody is there Just my luck would be an accident and then I then I just stop and stare
