Who Are You?
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
Never forget nothing, gotta remember it all
Gotta try to clear the haze, gotta stand up tall
Don’t blame the weather, you’ve made your choice
And your not a ghost, so who are you?
You do what you have to for your self, and I’ve made my choice
And there’s no room
I’m not a victim and neither are you
I know we’ve been here before, and Im sorry too
I know I’ve said too much, and I can’t take it back
But I just can’t loose
Everything’s frozen around you, you can’t leave where you are
And now your growing hungry, your starving for some love
You can’t even feel your fingers, so how are you supposed to do
All the things that you had planned on, sitting here and trying not to choose

Puddle of Bugs
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
Say my name one more time, maybe I’ll turn my head
Turn my face towards the flame, and singe my eyebrows again
Can’t be told something once, then you can’t be told twice
Silly rabbit trying to make sure he can count up to nine
When the walls they start to fall and the sirens start to sound
The seven headed dragon rides, its too late to say your prayers
Swimming puddles of mud, swatting puddles of bugs
Flap your arms as the bite, but the louder they buzz
Begging for help, Ill cry to God, “Please spare my flesh”
But they keep on biting until theres nothing left
When the walls they start to fall and the sirens start to cry
The seven headed beast will ride, its too late to say your prayers

Driving In A Tsunami
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
Once upon a time, we weren’t all so jaded
At least I wasn’t jaded, I wasn’t so hated
Lighting doesn’t strike twice in the same place
There’s really no way to make it delay
The thunders not so bad without all the air raids
At least that’s what they say, their just so damn nosey
Learning how to drive in a Tsunami
There’s really winning, the tires keep spinning
If you wanted to go, you should have gone
It’s not that easy, and your not that dumb
Yes I could have faked it, by being stoned
Cause being happy, is being alone
And so they say, this too shall to pass
By who’s calculations? I want to see their math
The future is waiting according to me
But nobody is staying, so why won’t you leave?
Your little island, toiling in the sun
It just doesn’t make sense, there’s really no purpose
Supporting life is out of the question
When your so full of all of your poisons
If we never spoke again, would it even matter?
Would you blink an eye? Would you lift a finger?
Will the lines still blur themselves against the colors?
Would it even matter? Would it even matter?

Nameless
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
He goes but he’s alone
He goes but he’s alone
It’s this gaze in his eyes that makes me surprised
Why he goes but he’s alone
There’s a sadness in his eyes
There’s a sadness in his eyes
No matter how it tries to hide
There’s a sadness in his eyes
He doesn’t speak a sound
He doesn’t speak a sound
There’s this thorny crown that’s weighing him down
Cause he doesn’t speak a sound
No, it can’t be that big of a secret
And maybe he just doesn’t believe it
But who does he think he’s kidding
I know my limit, its time that we get it
And nobody wants that kind of living
And nobody wants to be alone
I think he’s gone for good
I think he’s gone for good
There’s this hope inside that he’s still alive
But I think he’s gone for good

Suffering Gracefully
Music & Words by Mark Walters
Bone and cold
Soiled and stoned
Forever frozen under water
Baby ya never want to eat
Baby Please eat
We have to wait and see
and you will have to be
suffering gracefully
Sick and sad
Want to keep what you have
Your babies they'll need you
Baby I need you too
Please just promise we’ll meet
Then we’ll wait and see
Fighting Patiently
Rose and red
Never ahead
How could you be one of them
You never thought it could to you
How could these even be
I want you for more memories
Suffering gracefully

Tick-Tock
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
Tick-Tock, the time bomb
will go off in time
My words move around
from front to back, from right to left
Judas, you were wrong
To plant the kiss, what did I miss?
Traitor, get away
You weren’t the first and won’t be the last

Go Down
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
I had a dream that there we sat
Under the porch, then you asked for a cigarette
But you never smoked, my eyes welled up
Even in my dreams you are prettier than I recall
Pick up the phone, you don’t need a script
Maybe she’ll listen, just for a second
I just want to know if anything went down
Let me be the first to call you out
And I just want to know if anything went down
Let me be the first to say that I’ve done nothing wrong
Did you believe that is was me?
Did you really think I would give you my disease?
I reached out, I said I’d sent it
Whatever confirmation you needed to see
Who holds on for this long?
It never happened so move on
Did anybody know that nothing went down
It was just the one to count around
Why wouldn’t you know if anything went down
Let me be the first to drown you out
I just want to know if anything went down
Let me be the first to call you out
Surely you must know whatever went down
Maybe it was me the whole time begging you
And you couldn’t see for yourself
So you never believed that I did nothing wrong

Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
Wake up, your not dead anymore
It was all in your head
Everything’s OK
Don’t cry tonight
Its not worth your time and energy
Everything’s OK
So here’s my advice don’t think so hard
Just have a little faith in the plan
Everything’s OK

Enigma
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
I’m trying to keep you from becoming an enigma
A frozen heart that’s having trouble thawing
Who was the one who tried to rest in on my shoulder?
The frequent misfire of a rifle pointing
We were standing on a bridge that was burning
My dark side kept smiling at the moon
We could decide to leave all of the talking to the silence
So our personalities don’t collide
I’m trying to keep you from becoming an enigma
A frozen heart that’s having trouble thawing
I was the one who tried to rest in on my shoulders?
The frequent misfire of a rifle pointing
We were building a bridge that was burning
My dark side kept howling at the moon
Please don’t decide to leave all of the talking to the silence
Or my personality won’t survive

We Don’t Say Thank You Enough
Music & Lyrics written by Mark Walters
When the salt from all over the earth
It warps until it’s all that’s left
Then our souls decide to gently float
Simply because we got bored
Remember when we said it wasn’t fair
And everybody else just laughed
And now we’ve fallen down the endless well
There’s really only one way
Nobody knows why
We’ll sleep in almost every single day
We’ll stay up until we pass out
No laws apply to us underneath the sun
The world you see it is your own
And there we leapt right over the ledge
Cause we just wanted to find out
And what we found was nothing at all
But then we saw it as we hit the ground
Nobody knows why
We can float in the sky
Just cause see it doesn’t mean believe it, it doesn’t mean its really there
Just cause you see it doesn’t mean it’s real, it doesn’t mean it’s really there
