There are planes to better places where you’ll finally shed your skin
It’s been growing in your eyes since the moment we fell in
And the feeling’s never televised, it’s barely even sensed until you’re off
In the arms of something bigger you’ll be carried center stage
It will hold you when you linger, it will kiss you with your name
Like a fallen father figure who returns to save the day and win your heart
Out there in the open you will crack the great embrace
Brittle as a window that’s been glued into it’s place
When the changes take you further you will still remember how to frame your start
On the other side of everything, where lover’s stop and stare
And the lonely battle through the worst they’ve ever had to bear
You’ll be glowing like a universe you didn’t know was there
And it will throw you into orbit, right with everything you’ve ever wanted

It's impossible to just have one favorite track, but Broken Down Boys is outstanding, as is Pay to Play. The songs are full of honesty, beauty, heart, soul, and oh yeah..they also rock! ladyofmetal333
