Around You

bending the air
bending the light
like looking through a lens
makes day seem like night
we can make day look like night
we talked about freedom
we talked about love
how we must have missed
our sign from above
but we do love, we do love
I don't want to wrap you up
I won't weave chains around you
never want to hold you down
but I do want to be around you
we talked about freedom
we talked about love
how we must have missed
our sign from above
but we do love, we do love
and I don't know
if we'll ever get wise
looking through this haze
of unceasing lies
every now and then I realize
yes or no
I don't know
we change and grow
please let me know

The Price I'm Paying
04:36
|
|||
|
Father help me
once again and again
you know I hate it
when a good time ends
why does the good time have to end?
Father help me
all this sadness again
I don't have nothing
I miss my beautiful friend
we thought our time would never end
the price I'm paying
is given in pain
now I work for the day
when all the debt on my soul is paid
Father help me
just confusion again
unsure of what I am
unsure of everything
and these questions never end

Fool No More
04:18
|

|
I kept trying to reach you
you kept drifting away
like a fool, I was a fool
I could not stay away
a thousand days I gave you
hoped you'd change your way
your not seeing what I see
there's nothing left to say
but one day someday
before I'm old and grey
one day i'll learn that day has come
that day has come today
fool no more
won't hurt your feelings or your pride
I'll just walk away
I won't cry I won't sigh
it has to be this way
'cause I kept trying to reach you
you kept drifting away
like a fool, I was a fool
I could not stay away
you can tell everybody
tell them the news
tell them all that I've stopped
hurting for you
'cause I kept trying to reach you
you kept drifting away
like a fool, I was a fool
I could not stay away

Leave
05:33
|
|||
|
see her dancing
she's so bright
her good soul
lights up the darkest night
and in her arms feels like home
it's been awhile now
that I have thought we belong
why do we leave
why do we turn to say goodnight
no reason I can see
for us to say good-bye
as you go back to your life
and I go back to mine
I can't help but think
we're wasting time
things I haven't done
keep me feeling young
and yet I know with time
there isn't very long
and in your arms feels like home
it's been awhile now
that I've believed we belong

Crawl
04:54
|
|||
|
you fell so low
you did not know
depths of your soul
now you're gonna have to crawl
it don't seem fair
it don't seem right
an endless night
but you're gonna have to crawl
you fell so low
you did not know
how further you could go
now you're gonna have to crawl
it don't seem right
lost without any light
your hopeless plight
but you're gonna have to crawl
time's gonna move so slow, ooo
did you learn? did you learn?
you blame the fire when it burns
we don't make the rules
gravity is a law
the ground hurts when you fall
and you're gonna have to crawl
hang on 'til the end
the sun will come up again,
our Savior's always your friend
but you're gonna have to crawl
no more words left to tell
and hey but what do I know?
I hate seeing you so
but you're gonna have to crawl

Not Together
04:41
|
|||
|
you know how it is
you never know
but you can hope
that love can grow
plenty of times I felt so sure
only to turn around to find the boat is drifting from the shore
and now it's gone
proving once again that wishes can't be counted on
it's so sad when you find
that we have reached the end of the line
and we ain't getting any closer
this ain't getting any better
we ain't going any further
no not together
there was a sharp shinned hawk
flew from the tree
how long it was there
watching me
I was unaware
but now I see
this ain't the road I should be on
you ain't the hope I should dream on
and now it's gone
proving once again that wishes can't be counted on
it's so sad when you find
that we have reached the end of the line

To Begin
04:49
|
|||
|
to begin I love your skin
is there anything can pull me in deeper
your eyes your grace your love your face
your everything is in it's place
will tomorrow keep her
take a breath it's for your best
your glowing soul inside your chest
can I reach her
strive and rest and try your best
now that the sun sets in the west
can I keep her
distance and time
life is flying between
to have and to hold
a map for this road's what I need
we are or we're not
I almost forgot not to dream
just take a shot
to have or have not and we'll see
it's no sin I love your skin
and I would love to be in deeper
take a breath it's for your best
your glowing soul inside your chest
keep her

Muddy Ground
04:13
|

|
standing on muddy ground
everything is breaking down
futile it all seems
doomed to failure
started digging around
couldn't stand to be so down
well I looked and I found
there's another layer
there was always only one thing
worth anything anyway
when I look back at the love we had
i still can't believe you threw it away
so i guess i better move on, better move on
so I guess I better move on, better move on
so I guess I better move on, better move on
like you have, better move
see an old man walking slow
bent and all alone
fear of a future too soon coming on
can't spend my life this way
my heart says I can't stay
futile, ain't ashamed to say
i want more
there was always only one thing
worth anything anyway
when I look back at the love we had
i still can't believe you threw it away
