Rose Colored Stained Glass Windows
When "RCSGW" begins, it is easy to immediately be taken captive by the guitar melody and be drawn into its rhythm. The song provides a bold view of the way some church goers often turn a deaf ear and a blind eye to the plight of others, especially those who are poor or homeless. Christians tend to misuse their faith by deceiving themselves into noticing only the good in life. This, in turn, causes their hearts to become as destitute as the people they ignore.

The Chair
The Chair" is extremely intense musically with its piercing violins and heavy, rocking beats. It tells of a sweet young girl who is crippled or perhaps paralyzed. Her faith has not been dashed by her disability. She holds fast to the only peace she knows and dreams of living her life to its fullest, past the confines of her chair.

The Coffee Song
"Coffee Song" is simply a well done silly tribute recorded live in the Quadraphonics Studio in honour of the guys' favourite bean beverage. This one definitely causes a creeping smile (or two) and sometimes even some side-splitting giggles. =)

Sleepers
"Sleepers" is a rather ambiguous instrumental whose meaning and purpose are ultimately left to the mind of the listener to decide. In one sense, it possesses a very laid-back almost jazzy 70s feel, but at the same time, it increases into a wild jungle-like feel.
