not sure who I see, who I need to be<br />Ghost are my dreams, makes no difference what they mean<br />Why don't you listen, why don't you give reasons, bearing shackles, laboring seasons<br />Give back the life and realize, relocate memories in stride<br />Awaken inside, pulled the knife from my side, and so it goes<br />On on...<br /><br />What have I done, I've awaken the cyclone<br />In it, I'm alone, I'm alone<br />So alone, I'm alone<br />Unrelenting I've awaken the cyclone<br />What I've done lord, can't be undone<br /><br />I've bitten the thorn, beaten by stone<br />Unrelenting I've awaken the cyclone<br />In it, I'm alone, I'm alone<br />So alone<br /><br />What would I see if I could see across the ocean, but never could I<br />Awaken inside, montaged face fell from grace, and be struck back<br />Time lost the key, I'm lost within my means, weakened are the seams<br />Spinning reeling out of control, I've awaken the cyclone, and so it goes<br />On on...<br /><br />What have I done, I've awaken the cyclone<br />In it, I'm alone, I'm alone<br />So alone, I'm alone<br />Unrelenting I've awaken the cyclone<br />What I've done lord, can't be undone<br /><br />I've bitten the thorn, beaten by stone<br />Unrelenting I've awaken the cyclone<br />In it, I'm alone, I'm alone<br />So alone<br /><br />I can't hold on, shepherd staff cracked in half<br />Bring me to my knees, send me blind out to sea<br />To no return, to no return<br />I can't breath in fate, erase your pain on my behalf<br />Spinning reeling out of control, I've awaken the cyclone<br />In it I'm aloneDavid "Pepsi"

the open window<br />As you jump to the unknown, a white dress widow<br />The crows sing, blacked out sun, church bells ring<br /><br />The eyeless drones they will never know<br />The queen, all natural beauty queen<br />The queen<br />The queen<br /><br />They never once stopped, to think of you<br />My beauty, my beauty queen<br />They never once stopped, to think of you<br />My beauty
