A man is unhappy with the world around him. He feels as though his life is going nowhere and he wants so much more. 

The Man Who Stole The World

01 Resurection Man

These city Lights will never shine brighter than your eyes, they light up my life. Close your eyes tonight and kiss your last goodbye. Set it sailing into the night. Past the day so far from here, maybe then we could disappear. But I need you right now. Oh I love you so. All the Lights they shine as they pass me by. I’ll float to tomorrow all through the night. I miss your smile, your laugh, your love. I can’t find my way, maybe someday. But I need you now. Oh I love you so.

09 City Lights

The man soon realizes that he is being selfish and cannot continue this relationship. It will only leave the other hurt because of who he is. While their time together has been the best of his life, if he truly loves something, he must let it go.

10 Black Boxes And Broken Glass

The man, standing at the edge of a bridge, is contemplating whether life is worth living or not. Before he jumps he sees a tree in the distance and decides to meditate underneath it before he makes his decision. An internal struggle for purpose consumes the man and he realizes that his entire life has been lived selfishly. It is time to step off of the pedestal he placed himself on, and start using his position of power to live life for others, making the world a better place. As Time passes he lives his life well becoming a beloved leader rather than a hated tyrant.

11 Ships In The Sky

The man’s life has been lived well and it is time for him to move on. He reflects on his life with but one regret; leaving the one he loved.

12 Past The Day

I once found an Island
swallowed by the sea
the bones of a ghost
lying buried underneath
but I can't find my way
I'm lost in a daze
will someone help me
take me far away
from this place

and I said
It's time for me to go
you can make it through another day
and I am almost home
come sail far past the edge with me
I'm stuck in this storm
the Siren's take me off course
with waves that block out the sky
if the light comes then I'm still alive

rest your weathered soul now
your life is a rolling stone
the road set before you might be the one
to take you home
but I can't find my way
I'm lost in a daze
will someone save me
take me far away
from this place

The Domesticated Nomad

------------------------------------FREE DOWNLOAD-----------------------------------
Just leave me
Let me be
Floating home on the cosmic sea
I'm on my satellite
You're orbiting my mind tonight
And I don't know
I've lost the light

I love you
I hate you
I miss the taste
You left on my lips
But the time has come
For me to go away
As I hallucinate

The love you said
You had for me
I suffocate
Please set me free
But I don't want to go

You're running
Through my mind
A parasite
That just saved my life
But then you flew away
Your poison starts to take 
A hold of me
And I can't seem to breath

Where were you
What'd I do
Light the match
And burn down the bridge
The one we carved our names into
Erase the pain
As I hallucinate

The love you said
You had for me
I suffocate
Please set me free
But I don't want to go

I hope this letter finds you well
But don't you reach out to me 'til
You know what you want
I don't think I'm asking for too much
With all the time I spent on you
The words that escaped my lips were true
You left feeling fuller
But I feel like a fool again

The Sunshine Gang

Letters To Lilburn

Sailing through this maze
Just trying to find my way
To the key to your heart
The jagged rocks line the shore
My ship is going under
I think it's time
We should part

I'm a stowaway
On the ship to your heart
I'm a hurricane
Sent to tear us apart
When there's nothing left
But the memories
You're haunting me
Yeah you're haunting me

As the storm subsides
The sun starts to fill the skies
It'll be ok cuz we're doing fine
Just counting days
As time passes by
I'm treading water
But I'll be alright

The Stowaway

You are a wild flower
bringing color to the mountain side
you are the sun and stars
going supernova as you permeate my mind

The road ahead of me is filled with crossroads
and it's splitting my path in two
and all the space between
it ain't enough to keep me from coming back to you

This is the sound of static
ringing in my ears
this is the weight of the world
it's been crushing down on me year after year
and I can't see the light
a haze has taken over me
and I can't seem to breath
and I can't get it right
over and over the stars align
to a sign that I can't believe

I am a sleeping giant
and the ground beneath me crumbles as I dream
I am a rusted pillar
a failed support under the weight that I'm carrying

Is this where we should be
or is there something deep inside that's broken in my mind
Are you really happy
just chasing all the butterflies that we can't seem to find

We were a picture frame
leading happy live in the mind of a passer by
we were two lovers sitting
in a thunder storm that blacks out the sky

The pressure's getting me
and this decision has been weighing on my mind
Is it time to concede
or will this just be another fight and deepen this great divide

The Sound of Static

The Sounds Of Static

Every time I close my eyes
I see you standing there
with that grin on your face
and your wicked stare
you tempt me
your play thing
you know it isn't fair
I want you
and you know it too
but you don't seem to care

I had a dream about you
you tore my heart in two
a bloody bite to my surprise
I stared into your eyes
one more thing
you said please
so have your way with me
you fill me up and poor me out
I'm spilled onto the ground
and I just can't take this anymore

Diving deeper into my brain
as my mind flatlines
We sat there just playing games
trying to kill the time
Let's go back
I'm done here
can we just rewind
to yesterday when there was something left to see
when you got the best of me

Dear You

All I wanted
was to write a love letter to you
but my dreams met reality
before I touched the ink
to make them all come true
and all I needed
was just a little more time by you
but when you're worlds apart
the voice from the dark
ain't enough to get you through

and I miss you
as the sands fall down the glass
to pass the time that I
couldn't be there by your side
and I'm sorry
as shattered hearts fall behind
the scenes to reveal this dream
of you and me
in a better place and time

I'm a nomad
ever searching for my home
amongst the shifting sands
lit by the stars
trekking through the dessert alone
I'm ever searching
for a place to call my own
and for my shining light
to guide me through the night
and safely take me home

I don't know where I'm going
I just gotta get out of this town
the light at the end of the tunnel
is just a train to run me down
I don't need anybody
the lie that the lonely tell themselves
my soul has left my body
would you take a look at me now

On a long walk home
it'd be a little less cold
if you were standing
here beside me
so I stared up to the sky
on a moonlit night
and wonder if you're thinking of me

A Better Place And Time

Finding inspiration from living life to it's fullest and trying to see as much as I can.
