I was just a boy in a big city
Where music filled the subways and the streets
They made their homes and played there endlessly
Thought they were crazy, they must be crazy
I wondered why these artists chose to starve
Or why they loved so much to bleed
Until I put my fingers on these strings
Some say they're killing themselves
But what is life without a dream
Chasing, wasting my life with dream Chasing
Wasting my life with dreams
I had considered it a blessing
The life I gave to nylon, bronze, and steel
I always thought it was my calling
To make them whisper, to make them squeal
But I grew up and found out life can change unexpectedly
I grew up and had a family
With bills to pay and mouths to feed
All this responsibility, yeah it can sometimes kill the dream
Chasing, wasting my life with dream Chasing
Wasting my life with dream chasing

My friend, I remember when I made your day
But I fell off along the way
When? I can't say
Silence does more than words can say
I'll find a place
To fade away
Fade away
Fade away from me
Now I'm lost and all alone. No room to grow
The sun, it no longer guides me home
Echoes of bliss and peace of mind inside my bones
They fade away
Fade away
Fade away from me
I'll send away for a hopeless case
To reassure this hopeless face
My world turned black and blue
Once what I felt came true
That I don't deserve you

I love my family, I'll do anything for them
But so did Cain, so did Cain
My pretty girl, I'll follow her until her end
But so did Gein, so did Gein
I love my child, I will always let her know
But so did Casey, so did Casey
I love my friends, love my friends
But so did Gacy, so did Gacy
Can you convince me that I won't become like them?
Just one reason to separate this blend
Cause just like them, I can bend
And just like them, I can break
And how will I know what it takes?
Will I know if I'm not safe
Before it's too late?

The Great Depression

I know an answer lies somewhere
That I won't have time to find
I've come to terms that I will suffer
Until my last gasp for air
A new dawn approaches
With the chance to make up for lost time
It's a battle I'm not winning
Overwhelmed by the though of being last in line
Each day, I drift a little closer
To where I know I'm supposed to be
Each night, I fear I'm growing colder
Into someone she will leave
It's someone I don't wish to be
An image I don't wish to see
But I let everything get to me
If I could just speak my mind, would it set me free?
The road will be long
But I have to be strong
When everything goes wrong, I'll be here
Telling myself that I just can't give up

Call Of The Siren

It's in my eyes
It's in my mind
Viewed in sculptures and plays
That angels fall
Back to earth
Even the best can lose their way
It won't be long
Till you return
And when the siren calls
It's time for you to go
At least I know
You've watched me grow
Though you were not there to help mold
And I can say
A dream came true
To spend just one more day with you
But you don't belong
And I must be strong
For when the siren calls you home
