In the forest Saw the lightning Bolts and they were Scared away It's cataclysmic This L.A violence Holy roller Hurricane I hardly knew her I tried to lose her This forest seems to Know my name There’s no horizon In this forest Only violence takes the stage… Turning and burning the apple falls so far from the tree I cannot take it’s burning a flame inside of me Turning and burning the apple falls so far from the tree I cannot take it's burning a flame inside of me… In the night I see things The dreams that day bring I crush myself and turn away To complicate me And make my soul think That it’s alone in company I hardly knew her I couldn’t lose her This forest seems to Know my name There’s no horizon In this forest Darkness blankets over me… Turning and burning the apple falls so far from the tree I cannot take it’s burning a flame inside of me Turning and burning the apple falls so far from the tree I cannot take it's burning a flame inside of me… More lyrics: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/m/monks_of_mellonwah/

Vanity 04:01
Vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity Ohh vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity Birds stand in line just a time I can suppose I’m close The person that defines my allegiance to control the flow Twisted stage lining Searching never finding But we try again… Vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity Ohh vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity Arrive just in time but you always miss the show, let go When winter makes you cry by the by you’re all alone, you know Cringing chastising Feel my love dying Here we go again… Vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity Ohh vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity If I changed at all, it’s not exactly what I meant I’ve got pain to solve, and it’s taking over me If I missed the call, I never knew what I could give I’ve got pain to solve, and it’s taking all my years Vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity Ohh vanity vanity…you’re stretching my insanity sanity

I was lying there that night When your daddy fell and died Everybody wept and cried You just kept your hands with mine Chorus Nice to know I failed you again I'm sinking, stumbling I don't know the way Nice to know you'll all be OK My only question What remains of me? Bless you perfect child Your eyes brighten all our days and nights Chorus Nice to know I failed you again I'm sinking, stumbling I don't know the way Nice to know you'll all be OK My only question What remains of me? Nice to know its all been a game that we keep on losing Still i'll start again Now I see my road has an end With my painted army, yeah we'll march away Bridge Tear Your Hate Apart Don't let it bury you Go now far, far away With wisdom and hope renewed Tear Your Hate Apart Don't let it bury you Go now far, far away I'll always believe in you I'll always believe in you

Pulse 04:27
Deep kick Undercover Buried in the seventh wonder Always facing Rainbow chasing oh Its gone, I could be wrong Cold pit Scary lover Soul lit the violent thunder Never wasting Time replacing oh Its gone, move it along Rip round Make another Solitude a major blunder Devil styling World defining role My soul, will always be cold When we run We find sun I don’t feel what’s real In all the same old things Class clown Not another Sad face whose life went under We all know The rules can bend and break Away, think of the stakes Heat stick Burning under Losing time but growin on ya Shifting faces blur as time goes on And on, isn’t it wrong When we run We find sun I don’t feel what’s real In all the same old things Skin folder Growing older Makin’ way for young miss lola We can wait But she just can’t hold on Too long, she might move on Age old Space lion Listen close you’ll hear him crying Even gods can feel it slip away Today, is fading away When we run We find sun I don’t feel what’s real In all the same old things You hide away In a place you’ll never stay Hide away On your own…

Chasing away in a place where the light is all gone Ride around it’s over now, the final seed isn’t old Change me when I’m out of line Bring your feelings to the floor this time, so we can finally end this Aive for a Minute… Wasting away in your hate, now you see that you’re wrong White it out; just erase all the time that you owe Leave things just where you found them Safety feels just like a pain inside, I need to finally end this If you smile keep it in mind that it feels as though we waited all the way Let the sublime dissolve… Crazy to stay with no mind no belief of where you belong Ride around broken ground; stake a claim to the throne Leave things just where you found them Safety feels just like a pain inside If you smile keep it in mind that it feels as though we waited all the way Let the sublime dissolve… If you smile keep it in mind that it feels as though we waited all the way Let the sublime dissolve…
7.
You’ll rust in here, or fly away The days come and go again… These hallowed walls, their shadow falls The sun is meek he lets us wash away can you hear me say Don’t let me wash away… Speculate, infiltrate, Storm the gate, recreate this escape tonight The moon is brightening the darkness Emancipate, operate, a dying state, clean the slate for all our time Let your soul breathe in the air Don’t let me wash away…
8.
I feel alive like none before, don’t break my fall Sailing away blind of what’s in store The sun’s down time to roll the sound and let sanity take its toll Going somewhere that I know is dry and forbidden Is nothing that can make me wrong Shaking fools and dodging rules make break your perception If ignorance is where you fall Days can melt away and feel the same Just clear the stage… I feel alive like none before, don’t break my fall Sailing away blind of what’s in store The sun’s down time to roll the sound and let sanity take its toll Easy sins may slither in and hide for a minute Before they see the light at all By the time the good in you can make you a winner I’m guessing that your chance is gone Days can melt away and feel the same Just clear the stage… I feel alive like none before, don’t break my fall Sailing away blind of what’s in store The suns down time to roll the sound and let sanity take its toll

Your teachings weigh me down I can relate, And lately I’m convinced, Please me take control I’m in your hands, Arriving to my pain Bleeding sacred sounds alleviate, All my body’s strain, Creep my way around a life of hate, Maybe I’m too late Time brings us down To the ground, But all I know Is safe and sound, Lost or found it’s all the same And all the seas Roll around Turn the people Upside down See confusion tear away Sooth me serenade the night away, Just so I can feel, Save me keep a place between your hands, You’re all I ever had Time brings us down To the ground, But all I know Is safe and sound, Lost or found it’s all the same And all the seas Roll around Turn the people Upside down See confusion tear away

Downfall 03:34
It’ll be my downfall; don’t try to save me, Little mountains crazy for them diamonds, When you see that crowd run, follow your daydreams Your heart is waking, rising higher Change, you’ll always see the change, In a reckless downpour, feelin’ kinda hazy, Supersonic phasing, lightning fire, Double time but too far, from what the day means, Muscle up and still lean, you can find your, Change, You’ll always see the change, You’ll always see the change, You’ll always see the change, I the mighty thunder, But I feel the shame, Chase the reckless wonder, But I know you’re for the game, I know you’re for the game, I know you’re for the game,
11.
Heading the same way as before, Still clearing space, It’s not the same game anymore, I can read it off your face, Why can’t we all just look at what’s indelible, From ashes to ashes is what’s incredible, Run hot don’t elevate it till its credible, It’s not what I’m used to saying, I’ve been runnin’ around but I feel no pain, For anything, anymore, Just to cause us to try to explain, What’s all and what ever is, Cryin’ alone you gotta’ feel restraint, That’s something I’ll never know, I feel young but I’m, Afraid to die, Grating away on the unchangeable, Just another wasted day, Hope lies in duties waiting call, You better pull your weight, Runnin’ through a tangled mess in Mexico, And I’m askin’ why the show isn’t in stereo, While acid helps alleviate the visible, It’s time you met your craving, I’ve been runnin’ around but I feel no pain, For anything, anymore, Just to cause us to try to explain, What’s all and what ever is, Cryin’ alone you gotta feel restraint, That’s something I’ll never know, I feel young but I’m, Afraid to die, I’ve been runnin’ around but I feel no pain, For anything, anymore, Just to cause us to try to explain, What’s all and what ever is, Cryin’ alone you gotta feel restraint, That’s something I’ll never know, I feel young but I’m, Afraid to die,
12.
I belong to you, My broken home has much to do, With all of the pain I have, its true, Needles aside, have no place with you, I still dream of a day, when I’m closer, When I become all that I, can be, In my surrender, In all conception, I still loose, In my ascension, This still no mention, Of you, Danger keeps me down, I think I’m afraid ill sink or drown, Before the lights go out, Sing one last prayer with no fear, with no doubt, I still dream of a day, when I’m closer, When I become all that I, can be, In my surrender, In all conception, I still loose, In my ascension, This still no mention, Of you, Ohhs (Fade Out)
13.
I'm lost in your head, I'm trapped in your heart, Wrapped in your veins, And I just can't breathe, I just can't breathe, Just can't breathe, I'm holding too tight, I'm turning away, I've waited this game, I just can't breathe (just can't breathe) I just can't breathe I'm lost in your head, I'm trapped in your heart, I just can't breathe, I just can't breathe I just can't breathe
