Wantonly 03:03
Wantonly- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) I don’t care what you think of me It’s not my job to make you see Coming too late to the table The players are packed up and gone I’m not an action figure Won’t let you pull the trigger But I’m amazed I’m still breathing When so many friends are now gone Try not to make the same mistakes Not tempting fate, no time to waste Guess I’ve been lucky so far I can’t let it go to my head Between the seen and the unseen For my demise, the light is green They ruined all of my plans But I’ll do the best that I can No one asked me what I think If I could drink, I’d have a drink See through a brick wall in time I’m watching the whole thing unwind I’m not an action figure Hope you won’t pull the trigger But I’m amazed I’m still breathing When so many friends are now gone

Toast the Sun- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) Let’s have a drink and toast the sun Stand and salute the great beyond Never believe that hope is done So let’s have a drink and toast the sun Let’s have a drink and toast the sun Let’s have a drink and toast the sky While there’s still time, we have to try Love all we can before we die So let’s have a drink and toast the sky Let’s have a drink and toast the sky Let’s have a drink and toast the sun Stand and salute the great beyond Never believe that hope is done So let’s have a drink and toast the sun Let’s have a drink and toast the sun

Shadow World 04:01
Shadow World- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) I know I’m gonna go, fall into the shadow world You know you can’t predict the future Could be tomorrow night, could be thirty years or so One thing I can’t get back is time I wonder what it’s like, dreaming in the shadow world I wonder what I’m gonna find there Already half way there, one foot in, one foot out One thing I can’t get back is time Living in the shadow world Already half way there, one foot in, one foot out Not really sure where I belong Could be tomorrow night, could be thirty years or so One thing I can’t get back is time Dreaming in the shadow world Already half way there, one foot in, one foot out Already half way there, one foot in, one foot out Already half way there, one foot in, one foot out One thing I can’t get back is time

Been Here Before- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) They say they understand But I know what they plan They wanna shake my hand But it’s a lie, I feel like I’ve been here before They're wasting my time, I know that I’ve been here before They’ll ruin my life, it seems that I’ve been here before They wanna be my friend Until the very end They say they'll lend a hand But it's a lie, I feel like I’ve been here before I cannot believe, I know that I’ve been here before Are they saving my life, or twisting the knife? They wanna be my friend They wanna lend a hand But it’s a lie I just don’t believe, because I know I’ve been here before They act so polite, they don’t know that I’m keeping score I see through their game, because I know I've been here before

Save My Darkest Side- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) It’s not easy The illusion is for free It won’t help me now Now Moving me sideways but looking backwards I'm staying in one place One place One place One place Save my darkest side I keep it down inside Save my darkest side Let down my guard 'Cause it’s the last train out If I cared about one thing One thing You can spin me round I'll bounce right back again As if I still believe Believe Believe Believe Take my breath away I need a place to stay Take my breath away Not waiting to be free Save my darkest side I keep it down inside Save my darkest side

Behind the Sunset- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) Look behind the sun Is the answer there Trying to decode Do I really care? All I hear from you Is your words decay Walk before I crawl Turn my life away Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sun Waiting for a sign Is the answer there Terminal decline Ghost with flowing hair All I hear from you Is your words decay Water cool and clear Wash my life away Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sun Time is running fast Wish that I could stay They took my idea Now they have to pay Now they have to pay Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sunset it's waiting for me Stand clear, I'm trying to see Behind the sun

Welcome Back 02:45
Welcome Back- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) You did what you wanted to, went quite insane Now you’ve come back for the cure That feeling inside you just won’t go away What’s wrong or right you’re not sure The world around you was black, now it’s white Inside you’re totally gray If you are the answer, then I am the question There’s just no way to be sure So pin back your eyeballs and take a hard look You’ll find my intentions are pure The world around you was black, now it’s white Inside you’re totally gray Welcome back I’d just like to say – Welcome back You’re looking so pale – Welcome back The checks in the mail Miss you tomorrow, I’ll miss you today But everything finds its own time, its own way I can see by your eyes, you probably won’t stay past this song You did what you wanted to, went quite insane Now you’ve come back for the cure That feeling inside you just won’t go away What’s wrong or right you’re not sure The world around you was black, now it’s white Inside you’re totally gray Welcome back I’d just like to say – Welcome back You’re looking so pale – Welcome back The checks in the mail Welcome back I’d just like to say – Welcome back You’re looking so pale – Welcome back The checks in the mail

Set Myself on Fire- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) I'm gonna set myself on fire But that won’t satisfy you It won't make any difference You don’t believe what I say You just keep on going your way So I’m gonna set myself on fire No matter what I say You're turning it sideways I asked for Vaseline You gave me gasoline I'm gonna set myself on fire But that won't satisfy you It won’t make any difference I can't believe what I see You’ve raised the devil in me So I'm gonna set myself on fire Give me a match I've got an itch I must scratch I asked for Vaseline You gave me gasoline Give me a match I've got an itch I must scratch I asked for Vaseline She gave me gasoline I'm gonna set myself on fire

Something for Nothing- (Lyrics by: Dan Matthews) It feels like we’re walking in circles Everyone’s repeating the same mistakes And nothing will ever get better If no one will change Enough is enough! Been feeling so tired and fed up It feels like there’s nothing I can do or say To make people care more instead of What they can take Enough is enough! I’m coming undone! When push comes to shove You need to stand up No one gets something for nothing And if you’re not careful they’ll take it away But nothing ever really matters If no one will change Enough is enough! I’m coming undone! When push comes to shove You need to stand up

Stem the Decline- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) Looking out at the stars tonight I think you may, do you think I might? What you're thinking still baffles me Start the engine but I've lost the key Sure I felt the same back when Here before, but I lost it then Learned my lesson, it’s by design There’s still time to try to stem the decline Try to stem the Decline Thanks for asking One more time let it start again Ends the same, then I won't pretend If you're the answer, give me a sign We've got time to try to stem the Decline Try to stem the Decline Thanks for asking There’s still time To try to stem the Decline Thanks for asking We've got time To try to stem the Decline You're not helping

Cocaine Roommate- (Lyrics by: Jack Endino) Where you gonna go Who you gonna see What you gonna do Where you gonna go When you coming back Who you gonna bring Cocaine roommate Where you gonna go Who you gonna see What you gonna do Where you gonna go When you coming back Who you gonna bring Cocaine roommate Where you going Don’t bring anybody back Cocaine roommate
