Bury Your Past 03:43

“BURY YOUR PAST” Looking back at all the things I never did I wish I did I wish I could have said All this running through my head But I have made this bed I will lie in this bed till then Cut ties and loose ends Start it over again Now standing here, along the road that leads to my memory A haunting glow greets me Welcoming Deceiving Faces of ghosts from long ago Still stagnant in the only life they know Always knew that I was meant for so much more Living here isn’t worth dying for No, this house is not a home Bury your past Set your world on fire Materials to ash There’s no going higher There’s no looking back Keep your mind running Bury your past Growing up for me wasn’t easy, as it seemed that it should be My mind left me in a strange, yet native daydream I fed my soul the one thing I know I will live vicariously through rock n roll But before long you forget the words to your song Got to get back to the place where I belong To the place where I belong Bury your past Set it all on fire Materials to ash There’s no going higher There’s no looking back Keep your mind running Bury your past In the midst of burning life It’s death we stalk tonight In the midst of burning light Let in the dark Don't fear the night LYRICS BY: ALEXANDER PAUL FALVEY COPYRIGHT 2011

Tale Of Tragedy 03:43
lyrics

“TALE OF TRAGEDY” How far back does the story go? Suppose I’ll never know A dark twisted fate has led me on this road With no real place to call my own I travel on and on Sing my tale of tragedy What I’ve become Unleash the monster in us all I took the poison apple Now my mind it seems to play tricks on me With every lonely line of verse I’m cursed to bare this curse I drew my gun But he drew first I was searching for a heart of gold Yet somehow, was left with a heart of stone A deal with the Devil Gone oh so wrong Please ease my soul tonight Please hear my song Destined to walk the Earth alone This one-man show tends to tour alone Because he knows Everyone he’s ever loved has long passed on Our hero, once a man who wanted it all Lost it all I was searching for a heart of gold Yet somehow, was left with a heart of stone A deal with the Devil Gone oh so wrong Please ease my soul tonight Please hear my song Just a jester to a world that’s moved on Though some still sing along He’s known everywhere he goes But to truly be known is the difference he chose He’s alone LYRICS BY: ALEXANDER PAUL FALVEY COPYRIGHT 2012

Lost At Sea 02:28

“LOST AT SEA” Everybody’s out living their lives Synchronizing their minds Hanging out with their own kind But not me I’m lost at sea Don’t bother looking for me I was born with a plastic spoon Very few encouraged me to do what I do Endless nights writing in my room It was the only escape I knew I’m lost at sea Don’t bother looking for me In the midst of this catastrophe My mind takes me away to sea I got bats in my belfry I’m losing it I’ve lost my grip Now watch me slip Jump ship I'm over it Lo and behold the demise Of the blue from my eyes From time to time Look to their eyes for something more But nevermore Positively optimistic baby With shades of grey A splash of black A hint of crazy Home is in the cemetery That’s where you know to find me Singing… I’m lost at sea Don’t bother looking for me In the midst of this catastrophe My mind takes me away to sea I got bats in my belfry I’m losing it I’ve lost my grip Now watch me slip Jump ship I'm jaded Lo and behold the demise Of the blue from my eyes From time to time Look to the skies for something more But nevermore LYRICS BY: ALEXANDER PAUL FALVEY COPYRIGHT 2012

Down 03:00

"DOWN" Old fool, See me The void when you left I have kept as prosperity Now I'm a grown man Understand that I'm through With your condescending views Don't let them strip away Your dreams from you now Don't let them drag you down Sometimes it's the closest to us That do us wrong Leave them in the "Lost & Found" DOWN Dear Love, Hear me No longer a pawn It's so long To your games of psychology "To have and to hold" Became an old distant memory You never believed in me Don't let them strip away Your dreams from you now Don't let them drag you down Sometimes it's the closest to us That do us wrong Leave them in the "Lost & Found" DOWN I'm letting you know That I'm letting you go It is you I've outgrown Like a tidal wave, It crashes Like a burning book of matches I just want you to know I'd like to thank all of you For helping me strive And it feels so good to be alive Sometimes it's the closest to us That do us wrong Leave them in the "Lost & Found" DOWN LYRICS BY: ALEXANDER PAUL FALVEY COPYRIGHT 2014

Dark Symphony 04:09
lyrics

"DARK SYMPHONY" Down in the depths within my chest There is a fire Though burning bright It longs for life to warm the hollow Where does the time go? Time goes, Time goes Yet you wonder why I feel so estranged I guess it's strange to stray away from the paths that are paved To drift by is to die I'm destined to make a scene Call upon me Dark Symphony And while the sirens sing sweet lullabies of sin I won't be listening I've lost my mind The nine-to-five has broken my stride I come alive in the night On a stage under lights I keep bleeding for that feeling I sing for my life Then say goodnight Call upon me Dark Symphony And while the sirens sing sweet lullabies of sin I won't be listening Paving the way with something of substance to say, for a change Call upon me Dark Symphony To break free from this tale of tragedy For it's one glimpse Then it's gone Call upon me Dark Symphony LYRICS BY: ALEXANDER PAUL FALVEY COPYRIGHT 2012

Sad Song 03:58
lyrics

“SAD SONG” I have loved I have cried I have slowly died But I don’t regret a thing from my life Through the darkest of trials And a mountain of compromise Don’t you love it how we’ve got nothing but time Yet can’t find how deep the rabbit hole really goes Don’t you love the sound of that sad voice He’s singing your song on the broken down radio Sad song It was the saddest song to ever be sung I hope you all sing along And find comfort in knowing that you’re not alone at all In a sad song The days feel they’re getting much longer It’s getting much harder to relate These days Keep it all bottled inside But you’re running out of room to hide Don’t you love it how the whole world seems it’s changing Yet you seem, you’re staying the same Don’t you love the sound of that sad voice He’s singing your song on the broken down radio Sad song It was the saddest song to ever be sung I hope you all sing along And find comfort in knowing that you’re not alone at all In a sad song We are all singing a sad song of our own Out of tune Deaf of tone You have all sung along We are all singing a sad song of our own Out of tune Def of tone Won’t you come sing along?
