I'M SNOWBLIND, HE HUNTS GRIZ I'M STARVING WHILE HE SLEEPS OH LORD! I'M ALONE BEAR CLAW COMES TO ME AND HE GIVES ME THE WISDOM THAT I NEED LISTEN TO THE WINTER WIND, FOLLOW TRACES IN THE SHADE BUT THERE'S NOTHING WE COULD SAVE WHEN WE PROTECTED OUR HOMES FROM OUR GHOSTS SEE HOW THEY RUN THERE'S NO MOUNTAIN YOU CAN CHEAT WATCH YOUR TOPKNOT, INJUNS KILL OH GOD, I'M ALONE RIDE YOUR HORSE TILL YOU FEEL FREE DON'T LOOK BACK AND CHASE THE BEAST

I HAD TO READ IT ONE MORE TIME TO UNDERSTAND YOU'VE GONE I'M SURE IT WAS MY FAULT SILENT LOOKS CAN TALK AND NOW I'M STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF MY LIFE YOU'RE PEELING MY THICK SKIN LOST MYSELF IN PAIN IN THE PAST WHERE WE BELONG THOSE DAYS TO OVERCOME ALL THE PIECES OF A PUZZLE THAT WE NEVER HAD

If We Could Read His Mind 03:34
lyrics
IT COMES BACK TO ME NOW NOBODY SAW HIS SMILE STEP BY STEP, DEEP IN THOUGHT A CURSED GIFT RUINED HIS LIFE AND WHILE WE’RE ASKING ABOUT IT HE STILL KNOWS WHAT WE FEEL HOW MANY SECRETS DID YOU HEAR WHEN WE TRIED TO HIDE THEM? IF WE COULD READ HIS MIND EVERY LINE WOULD BE A CRY SUFFERING SOUL, ARE YOU LOST? THE LOUDEST VOICE COMES FROM YOUR HEART

The Elephant In The Room 02:36

NOW, REMEMBER YOU'RE A PART OF A BIGGER PLAN AND THEN WE'RE GONNA SING JUST FOR A WHILE FILL YOUR LUNGS AGAIN NOW, FORGIVE YOURSELF AND LOOK INTO THE SUN AND THEN WE'RE GONNA PLAY GAMES ON THE SAND LET THE FUN BEGIN! AND WHEN YOU FEEL YOU'RE GOING DOWN THINK THAT YOUR WISHES ARE ALWAYS CLOSE TO YOU BUT WE'VE BEEN SEARCHING IN THE CLOUDS STEP ASIDE TO DODGE THE LIES LEARN FROM KIDS, WE'RE CANDLES BURNING UP THERE'S AN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM TIME TO DREAM ON, AND REACH THE MOON
