This pain in my chest I can’t give it back Til I don’t exist Til there’s nothing left No one ever said it was easy Release me, release me Do you remember the way it was? The way we were? We can never live it again Yet how I cling to the older days They reappear But they can never be lived again No, time marches on Though the hurt Doesn’t end Release me.

In the myth we were told In the garden of old There was Man with his Bride Dreaming innocence called life They woke up, took a fall Questioned the meaning of it all “Is this it? Am I real? What happens in my dreams?” From essence to existence... How do we know what we know How do we know what we know Is it real? Man wakes up, takes a fall Questions the meaning of it all “Is this it? Am I real? What the hell am I doing here?” From essence to existence... How do we know what we know How do we know what we know LYRICS WORLD KEEPS SPINNING An Antidote to Modern Anxiety How do we know what we know Is it real? What is truth in this life? How do we know what’s right? Is this real? Am I dreaming a lie?

Must Admit 03:39
People out there talkin bout it The end of the world Must admit I thought about it Must admit I thought about it When the buildings fell to earth Nothing lasts forever down here But still don’t it hurt That everyone we ever hold dear Will all return to dirt It swallows them whole Am I walking alone? How it seem to go The lightbulb glow And then it pass This will all be gone Before we become As one at last Or someday, we may live to discover But do you think, we can ever recover?

Circus 02:03
The shadow of our legacy Is every war in history It’s shattered glass and broken seems The dream of our humanity We are wonderful And we’re terrible

Give me doubt so I can See my neighbor See my neighbor As myself Give me doubt so I can Lay all my Weapons on the ground When the armor of God Grows too heavy for peace, Give me doubt, give me doubt What be my courage now? My shield from evil? Love be my courage now, I shall not fear.

I Wanna Know 00:43
I wanna know how it feels To hope again To breathe again I wanna know Tell me nothing’s real I will learn again To believe again I wanna know how it feels To be in love with the world To be in love Though everything could never be enough I wanna know how it feels

There comes a time in every life We don’t have the strength to move In the night, I see the light I know that I could never do this alone Oh, I’m holding on to you, Holding on to you Cause everything I know, Tells me this is true I can’t do this alone There comes a fight in every life We don’t have the strength to lose Lay down my pride, I find that I I can never own the truth alone Oh, I’m holding on to you, Holding on to you Cause everything I know, Tells me this is true I can’t do this alone Ooh, I, Ooh, I Am giving up Ooh, I, Ooh, I Am giving up all my love

Just Be 03:02
Just be The Universe feels everything Who am I? I am the Universe The Universe feels everything
11.
Brother, here we are again Standing in the darkness Without the light, we can’t see One another Sister come and take my hand Teach me til I understand We weren’t made for ourselves We weren’t made for ourselves But each other Can we live for more than just the end of the world? Cause the World keeps Spinning round When fear becomes violence I’m drowning in the silence Sliding back to certainty and indifference I wanna hear the song of peace Would you sing it over me Could you help me to speak Though I stutter? We got to live for more than just the end of the world Cause the World keeps Spinning round Can we ever learn to love each other? We’re all we’ve ever had!
