VERSE 1
Saw you standing on the corner
Flashing that plastic smile
Living out in California
Drove a couple thousand miles
Bet you never left a goodbye note
Didn’t know what to say
Bet you thought you had it all figured out
Somehow you lost your way
CHORUS
Come back in from the cold
You’re playing the game but you’re losing your soul
You’re moving too fast now you’re out control
You don’t need the glitter you’re already gol
Come back in from the cold
You’re living “the life” but you’re playing a role
Ooooooowhoa don’t act like nobody told ya!
You’re already gold
VERSE 2
You’re trying to get your head right
Never been so hard for you
Cuz you’re all up in the headlines
For every little thing you do
You’ve probably burned a bridge or two
Chasing down those dreams
You’ll probably find out the hard way
It’s not all what it seems

VERSE 1
Round and round we go still searching for a better way
Time and place are all but lost forgotten on the way
Running running running down trying to escape the maze
Life is simplified when you're just a castaway
VERSE 2
Take me to the water and let me find the light
Give me what I need to make all the wrongs right
Floating floating floating up til I'm out of sight
Life is just a breeze and I, I am just a kite
PRE-CHORUS
Keep searching until you find it
Even if it takes all night
Can't stop it and rewind it
You feel it and you know
CHORUS
And then you press play
This meditation is the best way
Just let the rhythm take your stress away
We keep it going to the next day
Just press play

VERSE 1
It's gone far enough
I thought that I was tough
But I still feel tied down
I know you lied to me
Call you on the phone and you let it ring
If things ain't adding up
Things ain't adding up
CHORUS
You got me twisted up, twisted up
Don't know what to do now
Twisted up, twisted up
Never been so twisted up twisted up
Don't know what is true now
Twisted up
Inside
VERSE 2
I'm not going this road
How did you get so cold?
Can't you see I'm hurting?
You took my heart and you tore it out
Played me like fool when I'm out of luck
If things weren't bad enough
If things weren't bad enough

VERSE 1
Said you wanna try something new
Tired of the same thing
Said you wanna find someone who
Gets your heart racing
We're headed for the sunset of our love and we can't turn back
If only I had let it go before I got caught up in the trap
CHORUS
Broken promises
Get between me and you
And when your heart breaks
Know that I feel it too
VERSE 2 - Slightly Stoopid
She said she’d never leave you sad and that she’d never leave you blue
But the things that she’s been doin got ya thinkin that ur through
First she says she wants to leave but then come runnin back to you
Baby cryin all the time and make ya feelin like a fool
Try to lock up your heart and stealing your soul
Wanna get in your mind and she not lettin go
How it used to be fine now is takin its toll
Take you out like the trash Leave you all in Sorrow
She said you are one of a kind but you were three in a row
Everybody’s droppin dimes they tryin all to let you know
If ur thinkin ur on track but gotta long way to go
If she rippin up ur heart she gon be reepin what she sow
BRIDGE
Too many promises ya can’t keep
Too many lies that you can’t take back
It’s too late for apologies
I thought we were on the right track

VERSE 1
Talking we’ve been talking
And if you only knew
This daydream I’ve been lost in
Lost in loving you
There’s no limit in my mind
Cuz what you say I’ll do
Just because it’s reality, doesn’t mean it’s true
PRE-CHORUS
Baby baby I’m not scared
Running ‘round up in my mind
You know I’m prepared
Thought of it a million times but
CHORUS
I don’t know your name
VERSE 2
Thinking I've been thinking
Of places we could go
You me and the weekend
So let's not take it slow
I'm not trying to waste your time
And I'm no Romeo but
You need to know that I want you
And I'm trying to let you know
BRIDGE
Action reaction we're just molecules
Mixing in brilliant ways
If that is true then I'm sticking with you
Pardon me as I'm drifting away
There's no hurry
Please don't worry
These days that ain't cool
I keep waiting
Just keep waiting
Just keep telling myself to tell you

VERSE 1
What's going on here?
I thought it was strong
Clearly I was not in the know
Mind always running around
I knew my downfall
When I received that phone call
And I just can't let it go
Can't let it go
PRE-CHORUS
Move to the beat to the beat don't stop
I don't wanna play bad cop
Don't wanna see the signs
I don't wanna read between the lines
Move to the beat to the beat don't stop
I can't take that shot
You said you said you said
CHORUS
I’d always be the last to know
VERSE 2
I'm finished at the start now
You said 'play your part'
How am I supposed to play the role
When I'm always playing the fool
Return to sender
Colder than December
But I just can't let it show
Can't let it show
BRIDGE
I don’t want to be the last to know

VERSE 1
I lie awake sometimes and stare at the dark
Something inside me wants to tear me apart
I see it every night and every day
It’s all that I can do to keep it away
CHORUS
Cuz I can’t go on
I can barely breathe
Trying to deny
It’s a part of me
Like it or not
Like it or not
Like it or not
VERSE 2
Went to a doctor just to see what to do
He said “Too late my boy you’re all but consumed”
“Feel free to come back when you’ve come to your grips”
Sometimes it’s stable but sometimes it slips

VERSE 1
When times get tough
In a world gone cold
Feels like we're all alone
Life is just a roller coaster
Can't feel my hands
Got no plans
And I just can't wait until it's over
PRE-CHORUS
When I've had enough
When I've had enough
CHORUS
That's when I feel your sun
Shining down on me
And it's early days yet
As long I am free
I feel your sun
That's where I wanna be
Soakin up your light
And your energy
Right next to me
Means the world to me
Your energy
VERSE 2
Life can take you low make you wanna just run & hide
Darkness can numb the hurt and the pain that you feel inside
Lights gone out
Fueled by doubt
And your holding on but barely alive

VERSE 1
Some say you're just a tale
Make your blood run cold
Get a letter in the mail name in bold
It's just business not personal
I can't figure out just what you're doing that for
Thrill of the chase?
Just for the taste?
A game you wanna play?
Just another day
Just another dawn
Just another "say so long"
CHORUS
Just another name on your hit list
Your hit list
A name on your hit list
Why?
A name on your hit list
Why?
You’ve got it in the back of your mind
That you wanna put another cold red line
Through another name on your hit list
Your hit list
A name on your hit list
Why?
VERSE 2
Swift as a soaring arrow
Clear head, you take your aim
Breath held, you draw back your bow
Just put another face to a name
No shame, no sense in pretending
If not you somebody will
No blame for the life that’s ending
On to the next one, drawn to the kill
Blood on your hands and
I see you comin after me
There ain’t no way that I’ll be
Cast in your catastrophe
I’ll never be another pawn in your game
No no. I’ll never be just another name

INTRO/CHORUS
You've got me breaking the borderlines
But I just can't stand being confined
And I can't stop thinking
Why?
VERSE 1
Locked up and I don't know why
Captive and I'm hardly me
I bet you've never seen a world like this
A new reality
Just give me a piece of your mind
I heard the dreams last
Just need a little time
VERSE 2
You don't wanna see our kind round here
Miracle that we made it this far
It's a shame that you have us walking the path we tried so hard not to remember
Just give me some peace of mind
Can't let the dream pass
Can't stop me crossing the line
BRIDGE
I just can't wait til I get out of here
No one like me still hanging around here whoa
Can't wait to get out of here
No I can't wait, no I can't wait no

VERSE 1
Relax
I know you've never been this high before
The stars, the moons and the constellations
Let's leave this world and take a trip
Don't let anybody say you're wrong for taking a lift
CHORUS
Come fly with me
We can't look back, let's all just drift away
Come fly with me
Safe from the storm, the galaxy's where we'll stay
VERSE 2
We're on that coaster now
Oh it's such a feeling
Letting go somehow
Simultaneous being
We're light miles from where we used to be
Feeling supernatural
Light from the quasars leads us to our next destination
Eyes closed as we drift off in meditation
We're way out past intergalactic
I don't think we're coming back
Fly with me, fly.

VERSE 1
You know that whatchu said
Could mean a lot of things
You did it anyway
Just to get a reaction
I’ve been around the block
Enough to know
That you did it all
Just to be a distraction
And even though that time goes on
And you found someone new
I never thought you were acting
On the come around
You'll be another one on your own
No one'll be laughing
CHORUS
And I don't care
And I feel fine
And I have memories that you left behind
And I get low
And I get high
Trying to stay clear of the changing tide
No turning my back to you
No turning my back to you
VERSE 2
Well you’ve been telling tales
And I can overhear
That I don't fare well
Now that you're up in a mansion
Been on the wrong side
Of your bitterness
Too many times before
This time I don't see it passing
BRIDGE
So come on in
Waters are warm
Paddling out
In the eye of the storm
So come right in
Waters are warm
No coming back
When you're chasing the storm
VERSE 3
I hope that someday
You can make a change
But that's probably
Too much to be asking
On the come around
You'll be another one on your own
No one'll be laughing

VERSE 1
Darlin, darlin
My how the time flew
We were so poor and lost back then
But we made it through
I got the groceries and you paid the electric
Just enough to make due
Things were never easy but we were strong together
Cuz one and one made 2
CHORUS
So I’ll drive all night til the wheels fall off
Just to get to you
I’ll keep you warm when it’s cold outside
Won’t have to ask me to
I’ll pull you close when it’s hectic and you’re feeling disconnected
I’ll be there for you
Give every beat til my heart runs out
Cuz they’re all for you
All for you
All for you
VERSE 2
Darlin, darlin
All that you gave to me
Knew right away I was falling
And you were so carefree
We wrote our names and we put them in a bottle
Sent it out to sea
At the end of the night we went in different directions
But it was destiny

"We’ve always been a band with very eclectic influences. We’ve never shied away from exploring different styles or sounds. We’ve always said that we don’t care what “genre” a song fits into, we just care that we serve the song and let IT dictate where we go. This album was 2 years in the making and is what we consider the definitive sound of Iration. You’ll hear all of our influences being channeled and it might take you a few listens before you hear them all. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the ride." - Micah Pueschel
