And I can tell you're not alright

Cross your arms, avert your eyes

cry The words inside your head

When I find out you'll wish you said

You're gonna bet it all on black

And when it's gone you'll want it back

Garden of Eden burning

Forbidden fruit you won't discern it

8.) A Shipwreck In The Sand

Key:

Chords used:

Intro

Shane Speaks:

Once upon a time

Before the lakes and

rivers were polluted

Before the animals were

poached to extinction

And before man had destroyed

the earth's atmosphere

There was a great ship

This vessel was to

venture into new waters

To find new resources to make

life easier and more enjoyable

It was a simple mission for the crew

Who were excited to be a part of this union

They pledged their allegiance to the captain

And vowed to be there no matter what

In sickness, health, and possible death

As time passed by there was

no new land to be found

As the days grew shorter

And the nights grew

longer and colder

The crew became more and more

skeptical about the captain's vision

Originally passionate and

committed true and faithful

They now began to revolt

Verse 1

Sing:

You crossed the line

I was honest

I never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to

stand for something

And everyone should

take the lead

Follow your dreams

If you don't try you fail

Refrain 1

Shane Speaks:

As the mutiny started and the

captain was overthrown and

chained He asked them why

their minds had changed

There's no gold to be found

no treasure in the ground

We won't die for this

We won't die for you

Verse 2

Sing:

You've lost your minds

I was honest

I never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to

stand for something

And even if they disagree

Follow your dreams

If you don't try you fail

Interlude

E--F#--G#m- x2

Shane Speaks:

A shipwreck in the sand

made all their demands

Who died in vain

his love they stole

Chorus 1

fought and lost

This union is not

about the cause

This union was

never about love

This union This union

(Repeat)

Chorus 2

This union a battle

fought and lost

This union is not

about the cause

This union was

Verse 1

I wake up in the afternoon

Empty walls make up the room

To turn out anything like me

Another fraud, another fake

live without you

Someone is creeping

through the blinds

Calling me from

these confines

head Without you here

I'm left for dead
