Precautionary Principle

Verse 1 green leaves to black and blue sky to white (green leaves...and blue skys...the colors...have left my eye) all colors of the spectrum are gone, they've left my eye that looks through a straw in a thin straight line (that looks through...a straw in...a straight line...how this narrows my sight) only towards whats to come oh how this narrows my sight
Verse 2 in what could be a beautiful life had i just passed that time... ..to change... to change and know its right must i constantly repeat myself and not take my own advice
Chorus my father always told me, "son its not about what happens your character's defined by the choice in your reaction (you make)"
Verse 3 go with open eyes but brother you be wise some things most wanted are those least needed its hard not to cross that line

Orion
Verse 1
Warm breath left her lips victim to the cold winter air eyes shining with starlight, dim covered only by her wind blown hair
This is my last kiss and farewell i'll see you again if it all goes well under orion, the clear night sky in my arms forever be mine
Chorus
I don't want to leave, but i don't have a choice i don't want to be just another boy so look to the stars 'cause i'm looking to look to orion like we always do (yeah)
Verse 2
Wrapped in a coat that fell all the way to her bare skinned knees shivering with eyes to ground one last tug before he leaves her side
This is the time to pull away for us to go our separate ways under orion the clear night sky in my arms forever be mine
Chorus 2
I don't want to leave, but i don't have a choice (i don't want to leave, but you have to understand i don't have this choice) i don't want to be just another voice (i don't want to be just another voice) so look to the stars 'cause i'm looking to (so when you look to the stars, just remember, i'm looking to) look to orion like we always do (yeah) (just look to orion like we always do (yeah)
