Bus Ride 05:34
Bus Ride Verse 1 A ride on a bus That just does what it does But you feel like it's a waterslide How the wheels spin? Who knows nor where it goes You're just going along for the ride And lightening strikes Wherever it likes But you don't have sit down and feel the flash And cars will pass by you And maybe even fry you But you don't have to sit around and watch the crash Ch. And I'm losing patience As time goes I'm losing hope And it's insane to me How pain can be And i forgot how to cope And I'm missing answers And there's no sign of relief And I find it amazing How you can find faith In a world where I just see disbelief Verse 2 A trip on a boat We're staying afloat But we know there's a chance we'd sink Cuz no one can predict When those waves will kick The world doesn't work the way we think And hurricanes hit And you can't stop it Natural disasters don't care much about you And though you feel brave, you Know no one can save you Bow to the masters, there's nothing else to do Bridge And your rides are internal Better go to hell when it's still light And while you can you must burn All letters to yourself you forgot to write

Going Down Verse 1 Spending years with our fears Counting every god damn minute Hating everything about the world Forgetting we were in it We were crass, we became twisted We thought of the past just like it never existed yeah Pre chorus Those golden years They're now in the past Bottled up beers Should've know they never last Chorus We're going down we're falling out if love We've been around and we're thinking of How we're lost and found all through the years We're going down, going down from here Verse 2 We got caught up in nostalgic thoughs And life has become depressing The future is a dystopian nightmare And we feel so stuck in the present Now we have a few years added Guess we never realized how good we had it then Pre chorus That golden time It has come on gone A second glass of wine A new day has its dawn

All He Could Be Verse 1 He was a painter far beyond his time An artist that could've changed the world He died suddenly in the middle of his prime His body was tainted, but his soul was pure He had some stories to tell Fantastic works made just out of boredom A collection of pictures he would sell To anyone who could afford them Chorus He sure wasn't perfect He sure had his flaws Wish him hell and let him burn Curse his name and doom him He sure seemed quite mirky He sure could do more But one day you're gonna learn He was only human (and that's all that he could be) Verse 2 He became a father at twenty two Way too young to see life was in front of him And all his dreams fell apart before he knew How much they'd really want of him When he had worked to earn his keep When he found out about his daughter Those lonely nights he would weep But still relieved it wasn't him to who caught her Verse 3 He had a gun to protect kids and wife In a safe, locked drawer next to the shelf He offered anything for a quiet life Never felt like a danger to himself The first two bullets left two in laws dead It took justa glimpse of his traitor brother But now the third bullet went straight into his head He could've forgiven any other

Tomme ark 03:37
Tomme ark Vers 1 Nye sider, nye tomme ark Ny tider for en tørket jord Nye planter på ei dyrka mark Nye bed der blomster gror Vi er som klovner i samtiden Gjemt på et fårt, bort fra mengden Vi gjør ikke noe for framtiden Å spille kort hjelper ikke i lengden Ref. Vi har tomme ark, tomme ark Noe å beskrive døden med Mange tomme ark, tomme ark Et håp vi behandler nøden med Tomme ark, tomme ark Noe å komme gjennom livet med For mange tomme ark, tomme ark Men vi har ingenting å skrive med Vers 2 Noah han hadde en tom ark Den fylte han opp med dyr To mennesker fikk han i sin store sjark To griser, to løver, to kyr Skriften er der om du må tro den Noah reddet alt liv på planeten En tom ark ble full før floden Slik reddet han menneskeheten Vers 3 Nå er det på tide å snu arket En ny start eller ingenting nytt For skriften er som et gatemarket Du kan gjøre et varp eller gå hjem snytt Men en dag må tiden komme At du ofrer din notatbok en tanke For det er slik at ark som er tomme Er ikke det samme som blanke

Dumb Reminiscing I reminisce on time that's passed The years that ran by so fast It's like my time went in a loop or I went through a hoolahoop So I think back on what I did when I was just a kid And I think back on happier times But that happiness might only be in my mind Chorus It's a dumb reminisce When I sit and think back On times that I miss When my life was a shack It's a stupid memory When times weren't that bad Reliving what used to be And it almost makes me sad Nostalgic thoughts are here From holidays from longone years Times that will never return That are no longer a concern Some people just move on Never reflect on times that are gone But I go back every now and then Though I know I'll never be there again The idyllic stories told makes me feel like I'm getting old When I think about those days A different time and a different place But isn't it really the same? Isn't it kind of a shame? In my memory moments are missing but I still enjoy dumb reminiscing

Song That Should Have Been in the Lion King Verse 1 I once heard about the circle of life About birds and bees and how insects breed And got to know about the plants and forests That could start with one single seed We live and die we get born and give birth We start wars we sign treaties of peace And once I learned this I went out and started planting trees PC We all start up in diaper We might end up in diaper too And a mother's baby Who used to be wiped, maybe At some point have to wipe her too Chorus Because what goes around comes around What goes up must come down It's all in idioms and clichés When someone starts to cry And we don't see eye to eye We sympathize and pity them and walk away Verse 2 When we're young we seem invincible And immortal but we soon find out we're not And a tree can live for hundreds of years But its apples are gonna have to rot PC We all start in cradle We all end in tomb And nothing life gave us Is able to save us From impending doom

Wheel of Repitition Early morning the wheel starts turning And it doesn't end when the midnight oil is burning The teacher needs a place to learn in And the pupils get to make the big decision And nothing can stop this wheel It might not be a very big deal It's just the wheel of repitition The wheel of repitition The workaday world goes by You are on a mission But it's just one big lie You can sign a petition But it'll just be pretend The wheel of repitition Is something you can't end (is never gonna end) The fishers with fat fingers expect a finish A thought that will make any other thought diminish A powerful message, but a disturbing image A dream that is reaching fruition If you find someone you care about And know all their whereabouts You'll see the wheel of repitition Far away some bells of joy are ringing At a graveyard outside a fat lady is singing No one knows to what we are clinging We put money in the well, but forgot what we were wishing The crisis is immediate but you're still just intermediate watching the wheel of repitition
