Sing With Her
02:58
|
|||
At the back of the band
Keeping time strong
but you don't understand
So you wont sing along
The most beautiful sounds
Come from the unknown
Up from underground
So you better stoop down low
Show me what you've got
I won't think of you as weak
No one's asking you to
Get down on your knees
Take it like the man
That you say you are
You can still be strong
And sing with her
Do what you must
To satisfy your mind
Placate it with lies
But stay away from mine
You hold your cards to your chest
And you want the table too
But you've got to leave some room
For me to make my move
Show me what you've got
I won't think of you as weak
No one's asking you to
Get down on your knees
Take it like the man
That you say you are
You can still be strong
And sing with her
Show me what you've got
I won't think of you as weak
No one's asking you to
Get down on your knees
Take it like the man
That you say you are
You can still be strong
And sing with her
Show me what you've got
I won't think of you as weak
No one's asking you to
Get down on your knees
Take it like the man
That you say you are
You can still be strong
And sing with her

All That I Can Be
03:16
|

I am sharp
I am round
I am laying on the ground
I am wide
I am narrow
I am flying
Like a sparrow
I am down on my knees
And I am carried by the breeze
I am somewhere in between
But I am all that I can be
I am lost
I am found
I have a weight
I carry round
I am blind
I can see
I am weightless
I am free
I am stumbling though the dark
And I am running through the park
I am somewhere in between
But I am all that I can be
Sometimes you might try
You give it all you've got
And it's like all you gave
Got lost
But I wont
Break my heart in two
To give half a heart
To anything I do
I am silent
I am loud
I am lost
In the crowd
I am weak
I am strong
I am right
Where I belong
And I am everybody else
But I am certain of myself
I am somewhere in between
But I am all that I can be
Sometimes you might try
You give it all you've got
And it's like all you gave
Got lost
And I wont
Break my heart in two
To give half a heart
To anything I do
I am sharp
I am round
I am laying on the ground
I am wide
I am narrow
I am flying
Like a sparrow
I am down on my knees
And I am carried by the breeze
I am somewhere in between
But I am all that I can be
I am somewhere in between
But I am all that I can be

The Fire, The Flood
02:55
|

Can this be real
Cause that's not how it's feels
From my bubble of isolation
What can the day reveal
With all we've seen
On televison screens
I could offer my consolations
But what would that achieve
'Cause there aint' that much that I can do now
But lie on the couch and watch it play out
Aint' that much that I can do 'bout
The fire the flood and all of my doubts
Control is hard to find
When was it ever really mine
It's an added dcomplication
I think I'll let it slide
And I'll see you friend
At what we will call that end
We can start up a conversation
There are bridges we can mend
'Cause there aint' that much that I can do now
But lie on the couch and watch it play out
Aint' that much that I can do 'bout
The fire the flood and all of my doubts
'Cause there aint' that much that I can do now
But lie on the couch and watch it play out
Aint' that much that I can do 'bout
The fire the flood and all of my doubts
'Cause there aint' that much that I can do now
But lie on the couch and watch it play out
Aint' that much that I can do 'bout
The fire the flood and all of my doubts

Bittersweet
04:21
|

I was smiling all the whole way home
Thinking of jokes we told so long ago
And no I couldn't tell you word for word
But things I heard set my heart a glow
And I would like to say it stayed the same
But when there's something lost
And nothing gained
It's changed
Oh you've been flipped around
Turned inside out
It was always there
But I see it now
It was always going to be
Bittersweet
I can still taste the sunshine
After I've come in from the heat
And there are things I had to learn
I never thought that you would teach
Oh when the honey has stopped flowing
Heartache is lying underneath
The nights were short when we threw it back
That liquid truth kept us intact
To live so recklessly is oh so fun
A little pain never hurt no one
But then the morning aches made us think twice
How low we felt
Wasn't worth the high
But there's a drop or two still in my veins
And only the sweetest will remain
It was always going to be
Bittersweet
I can still taste the sunshine
After I've come in from the heat
And there are things I had to learn
I never thought that you would teach
Oh when the honey has stopped flowing
It was always going to be
Bittersweet
I can still taste the sunshine
After I've come in from the heat
And there are things I had to learn
I never thought that you would teach
Oh when the honey has stopped flowing
Heartache is lying underneath

Wolves
04:01
|

No man is an island
We are built from blood and bone
But there will come a time when
Man will find himself alone
Maybe I could have found you
If you had just made yourself known
But maybe you didn’t care to
And I was overthrown
And oh I tried to change you
Though you made it clear you ain't
Now all that misplaced blame
Turns to hate
And I won't take it back
Every wolf has had a pack once before
And I gave to you all I now lack
Oh the wolves are howling at the door
Did I ever really love you
Or was it just an ego trip
Oh to love something so broken
There's nothing more selfless
Did I ever really need you
Or was it just your fatal kiss
Cause when I planned my self-destruction
You were there to hit the switch
I know you tried to tell me
But I thought that I knew best
Now all that misplaced blame
Is laid to rest
And I won't take it back
Every wolf has had a pack once before
And I gave to you all I now lack
Oh the wolves are howling at the door
And I won't take it back
Every wolf has had a pack once before
And I gave to you all I now lack
Oh the wolves are howling at the door
Oh the wolves are howling at the door
No man is an Island

February Snow
04:02
|
|||
I held my own
Knew in my bones
What I believed
And I knew where I stood
And I thought I knew
What was good for me
I saw light and shade
Knew night and day
For what they were
‘Til I felt the cold
Of this February snow
Now I'm not so sure
And the lambs take their first steps
On a blanket of white
Then you can hear the rain pouring
On a summer's night
When nothing anymore
Is too hard to believe
And you know anything can happen
Then you are free
I had a plan
Held in my hands
A piece of my mind
But my plan a solid as sand
Blew across the land
And dust is hard to find
And now the lambs take their first steps
On a blanket of white
Then you can hear the rain pouring
On a summer's night
When nothing anymore
Is too hard to believe
And you know anything can happen
Then you are free
All I know now
Is covered with the ground
Snow it falls down
It makes no sound
All I know now
Is covered with the ground
Snow it falls down
It makes no sound
All I know
All I know
And the lambs take their first steps
On a blanket of white
Then you can hear the rain pouring
On a summer's night
When nothing anymore
Is too hard to believe
And you know anything can happen
Then you are free

I'll Go
03:17

Expectations high as the kite
You would fly as a child
You took your chances oh you tried
But when it flew it went wild
Anticipation lies with you at night
Sets you up for a fall of your own design
You’ve set your sights on the highest heights
And if you can’t get there you’ll die trying
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
And though I wrote it
I still can't figure it out
And if you just say the word then babe I’ll go
But I don’t know what the word is
Maybe you said it long ago
Comprehension it clears your mind
And clouds keep moving across its sky
The more it shows you of what it hides
The more of your wonder gets left behind
There could be an explanation
Written in stone
It could tell me all I need to know
But stones get broken oh they change their shape
So you might as well write it in water cause it's changing anyway
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
And though I wrote it
I still can't figure it out
Oh if you just say the word then babe I’ll go
But I don’t know what the word is
Maybe you said it long ago
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
And though I wrote it
I still can't figure it out
Oh if you just say the word then babe I’ll go
But I don’t know what the word is
Maybe you said it long ago
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
And though I wrote it
I still can't figure it out
Oh if you just say the word then babe I’ll go
But I don’t know what the word is
Maybe you said it long ago

A Minute
04:11
|
|||
I've taken a chance or two
I've over paid my dues
And still I believe
That nothing comes for free
I have reached out my hand
I've held onto what I can
I have reached out my hand
And gave away the ground on which I stand
I've been looking through windows
I could see all I couldn't touch
But I never felt the wind blow
'Til you opened them up
When you have everything to lose
And you still choose
To give it your all
You've given you shelter away
And there's a chance of rain
You know you've taken a fall
But I'd put it all on the line
For a minute of your time
I remember oh so well
Each time I thought I fell
I had only been stumbling
'Til you send me tumbling
I've been looking through windows
I could see all I couldn't touch
But I never felt the wind blow
'Til you opened me up
And when you have everything to lose
And you still choose to give it your all
You've given you shelter away
And there's a chance of rain
You know you've taken a fall
And when you have everything to lose
And you still choose to give it your all
You've given you shelter away and there's a chance of rain
You know you've taken a fall
But I'd put it all on the line
I'd put it all on the line
I'd put it all on the line
For a minute of your time

Lowlights
03:29

And it starts with a rolling wheel
As it's gathering speed
I’m gathering need
And it's rolling out of control
As it loses its losing its way
I do the same
And it starts with a flashing light
In the middle of the day
It can make no change
‘Till the sun turns its back on the world
And every blink another reason to think
When every road becomes a highway
Every valley a black hole
Oh well I would take this lightly
It's too heavy for me to hold
So take what you can and go
Before the lights get low
And it starts with a single word
On the tip of your tongue
And it goes left unsung
‘Til they’re pouring out of your mouth
Like some kind of symphony
But there's only one of me
And in the noise
I know my own voice
I know who I am and I know where I stand
So tell the violins to play on high
Play every note
I’ll know which ones I wrote
When every road becomes a highway
Every valley a black hole
Oh well I would take this lightly
It's too heavy for me to hold
So take what you can and go
Before the lights get low
Every road becomes a highway
Every valley a black hole
Oh well I would take this lightly
It's too heavy for me to hold
So take what you can and go
Before the lights get low
Take what you can and go
Before the lights get low

Open Hands
02:52

Come on over I hate this
My door is open
You know that I hate this
I hope that I don't freeze
So I put on a fire in the kitchen
I can't sleep my eyes
Are twitching
Like a child on Christmas Eve
And that glimmer of hope
Will be all that I know
Of your love
‘Cause I'm always one step behind
I'm always standing in a line
And I always want what I can't have
So I’ll wait patiently with
Open hands
I was never longing from a distance
I was by your side
And oh how I miss it now
I took what I could get
And no I never worked up the courage
I don't regret giving you my love
And I
I would do it all again
At least I have those glances I stole
And those moments I hold so near
‘Cause I'm always one step behind
I'm always standing in a line
And I always want what I can't have
So I’ll wait patiently
I’m always one step behind
I'm always standing in a line
And I’ll always want what I can't have
So I’ll wait patiently with
Open hands
My hands are empty yet again
Open hands
All I’m catching is the rain

I Don't Care
04:37
|

I'll lay down
And I'll feel my heart beat against the ground
I'll build a bridge
And I’ll let you walk all over it it
I'll hold my tongue
And I'll taste your footprints as you run
And I'll swallow my pride
To accommodate that look in your eyes
I don't care what you've done
It's on me again
I don't care what you've done
And let you be my friend
And now I'm picking the pieces up off the ground
And I'm carrying this heart of glass around
I’ll find my strength
It’s held from me at arms length
But my hands are tied
And the ropes are coming from inside
I know I am to blame
When all of my endeavors and the same
But I’ll put down my foot
And I’ll stand steady like I should
I don't care what you've done
It's on me again
I don't care what you've done
And let you be my friend
And now I'm picking the pieces up off the ground
And I'm carrying this heart of glass around
Time after time after
Time and time again
Oh I don’t want anything in return
And I’ll be your friend
Oh time after time after
Time and time again
Oh I don’t want anything in return
But you could let me let it end
You could let me let it end
You could let me let it end
I don't care what you've done
It's on me again
I don't care what you've done
And let you be my friend
And now I'm picking the pieces up off the ground
And I'm carrying this heart of glass around
