What is this foolishness?
Why are you taunting me?
What is this foolishness?
Why is it haunting me?
I have no right to ask you anything
I have no right to tell you anything
What is this restlessness?
What does it mean to me?
What is this restlessness?
Empty heart and open seas
Where do we go from here?
It could be anywhere
Where do we go from here?
Broken streets and desert air

See Me Fall
04:12
|
|||
Take the vision from my eyes
Take the compass from my hand
I will still know where I’m going
I will still know how to land
And you are here
You see it all
And you are near
You see me fall
It’s the end of the beginning
Or the beginning of the end
Have I found myself a savior?
Have I found myself a friend?

It isn’t easy to get here
Where the driftwood lands on black sand
Where the water is around you
Where the memories expand
And every night the sun goes down
We watch it sink into the sea
And I don’t know what brought you here
And I don’t know what set you free
It must be easy to live here
If you’ve left it all behind
You must have everything you need
I hope you find your peace of mind
I don’t know what set you free

The Sky Is Blue
04:33
|
|||
The sky is blue not just for you
But for everyone who lifts their eyes
And I have found some common ground
With the people who are caught by surprise
You don’t know where you’re going
In a city by a river
You don’t know where you’ve been
There is treasure to be found
You say life is for the living
There are people who belong here
But you don’t know what that means
Who have found the common ground
And the sky is blue
The Sky is blue
Not just for you
But for everyone who lifts their eyes
And you can see the vacancy
And the people who can empathize
And the sky is blue
Feel the universe expanding
Feel a chill inside your bones
See the people understanding
See the people leave their homes

There but for the Grace
04:02
|
|||
Sometimes it seems the sorrow tries so hard to find me
And it comes creeping up until it’s right behind me
Throws dust into my eyes and tries to blind me
Some time ago the sorrow tried to drown me
It tried to cover and surround me
But that’s the moment when you found me
So I’m still holding on

These Times
04:21
|
|||
These times (things they are changing)
These times (things stay the same)
These times (things they are changing)
These times (things stay the same)
Eyes on the prize
Prioritize
See through the lies
And change
Two steps forwards and one step backwards
One step forwards and two steps backwards
Two steps forwards and two steps backwards

Make No Mistake
03:58
|
|||
Make no mistake, that’s what I want
To make no mistakes, unlikely as that seems
It’s the hand of God tugging at my sleeve
It was an act of grace, telling me to leave
And it’s the hand of God that slaps me in the face
It was an act of God, reality replaced
If I don’t regret anything
Maybe I didn’t try hard enough
If I don’t regret anything
Maybe I didn’t push far enough
Make no mistakes, at least that you admit
Make no mistake, choose your hopes and dreams
And it’s the hand of God that slaps me in the face
It was an act of God, reality replaced
You get a lifetime time to prepare
And then a moment to decide
Wishing you could see
What’s on the other side
Who do you believe
When your heart is on your sleeve
Better hide it all away
Keep it for another day
(Which never comes)
For goodness’ sake, everything I do
Each step I take, leading me to you

Maybe
03:37
|
|||
Maybe this is how the world ends
Not with a bang but with a wheeze
Blood red sky and a gentle sigh of thoughts escaping
Our hopes all vanish in the breeze
Ch:
Hold me up, tell me things will be OK
Turn me around to face the coming day
When I am strong, I will sing a new song
Together we can make the music play
Maybe this is what I wanted
Splash of color on the monochrome
Nights like these I can hardly breathe for fear of falling
As the sun sets deep I feel so far from home

Sometimes
02:34
|
|||
Sometimes I realize
That everything I know is wrong
My convictions aren’t as strong
As they were
And it makes me wonder why
I wanted to believe the lie
Never even thought to try
Another way
Sometimes I realize
That everything I know is wrong
I like the singer, not the song
But that’s OK
And I’ve seen some wicked ways
Through a smoky haze
Laughing at crazy days
In between

After the Show
04:25
|
|||
This is something I can do
With my hands and my heart working together
This is something I can do
Find a melody to last me forever
A small stage in a narrow room
Electricity and wood
And after the show
The bar is closed
After the show
We all go home
And wait
Like so many times before
I can see the power and the fashion
Like so many times before
I can see the action and reaction
Bright lights and a big machine
The room fills with hopes and dreams
I am not afraid to sing a simple song
The melody will tell me what to say
I am not afraid to sing a simple song
The melody will carry me further, further along
