lyrics

(Casey's lyrics) I woke up to the sound/of demons shooting up through the ground/Open eyes, and I look around/A soul was lost, but a boy was found/Take some time, step aside/Silent shadows, books and lines/Look around, but never mind/ain't nothing here but the passing of time/Taking me all the way/Past the boardwalk, past the sunny days/To a place without a name/i toss and turn in the neon rain/What I heard, what I saw/I wonder if there's any difference at all/I'm walking through these empty halls/Rising up merely so I can fall/What I love, what I hate/I started thinking that it's all the same/Not a chance of a change/Not unless I want to make it that way.
(Dustin's lyrics) Later on, I come across/my heart was pure, but my path was wrong/I walk down these hollow streets/I'm near death, I can feel it following me/Past the sky, past the air/Past all the faces of the ones who care/So blissfully unaware/No one sees that I'm not there/Until the time that I decide/If I should run, or if I should hide/Just to know that I'm alive/I see the world with an extra eye/Seasons pass, come and go/I ask myself why is it I run/To a life that I'll never know/Got no direction, I've got no place to go/You may see me one day/Hanging 'round in the world's golden rays/There's a place that I can stay/Until then, I've got no more to say.
