Too young to fall
For a light I think I see
Can't say for sure
The plants have died,
My hair has grown
From the thought of you
Coming home

Come over old stranger, let go of your dagger
You stagger and then you are saved
To wander in danger, a babe in the manger
Forgetting mistakes that you've made
Eyes like mine blinking
And endlessly drinking
Letting the warlords inside
Falling like mice into fires of ice

There were two lofty ships from Old England came,
Blow high, blow low, and so sailed we.
One was the Prince of Luther and the other Prince of Wales,
Cruisin' down along the coast of High Barbary.
"Aloft there, aloft," our jolly boatswain cried...
"Look ahead, look astern, look the weather, look a lee."...

"There's naught upon the stern, there is naught upon the lee...

Hallelujah stop and stare
When will Jesus find us here
Could we survive?

How can you pretend to know
Who you are or where you'll go
When you just get by.

I need a dream, I need a bigger dream
Tell me if you know what I mean
I wanna live, I wanna live in your camera
Take a picture of my heart with you

You could have
Evidence to know how I've been bad
Make me sad

I never sleep
I been awake for what feels like a year
'Cause when I dream
My mind puts a face
To each one of my fears
I'm exhausted by my imagination
I close my eyes
But I could still see the pain on your face

I wish I had
Open eyes
On my back
So I could see

My life
Going past
Seems when

Now you're gone, and I don't know why
You removed yourself in the blink of an eye
When the seasons change, all you can do is cry
Now you're gone, and I don't know why

Maybe I failed, maybe I failed

[Whats it like where you are?]

You’re the shaded sun
You’re daddy’s broken gun
You’re the loneliest moon
You are a butterfly dreaming about your cocoon
You’re the only sound when I am blind
So I label you mine

You’re the house you grew up in

Don't know why I'm still afraid
If you weren't real I would make you up
now
I wish that I could follow through
I know that your love is true
and deep
as the sea
but right now

And where we live is where we hide
'Cause we can't forgive what's inside
We have sweet love (we have sweet love)
We have sweet love (we have sweet love)

Chorus:
In the night
Voices will fight

I pictured you in the sun wondering what went wrong
And falling down on your knees asking for sympathy
And being caught in between all you wish for and all you seen
And trying to find anything you can feel that you can believe in

May God's love be with you
Always....
May God's love be with you

There are things we cannot know
Invisible hands which guide the show from up above
And sometimes you are forced to go
Far away and shut the door
On the one you love
Well I don't know now where you are
Your photograph sits like a scar against my wall
Such a pretty face

If I tell you what's on my mind
Don't know if I want to
What could you tell me to make me feel fine
Riding up on your high horse

I've been wondering all of the time
Looking for something to fill up
Swallows start from below underground

November twelfth and it is a nice night to pretend
That nothing will come at me like you did again
I could see it in your eyes and felt it in your touch
That you were as close to the truth as anything ever was

Heard you cry
Love never asks you to lie
Take off your evil disguise

Don't want to be your airplane
Flying you around the world
Giving you something to believe
After your dreams have gone to bed

Seeing mama's marmalade eyes
Lighting up the sky
You could feel her

You want to be free
Don't act like it's bad
I'm already dead
My home is your head

Hey You and me
Can't get what we need
Hey You and me

You want to be free
Don't act like it's bad
I'm already dead
My home is your head

Hey You and me
Can't get what we need
Hey You and me

Sometime, no matter when
I wanna see you, see you again
I wanna hold you just like the wind at night

Blowing across the land
When you're searching for a friend
As I'm hanging out on a limb in plain sight

If I say I can't explain
Left my soul in Africa
Heard my name across idiot cries
Left my soul and went after your goodbyes

With the still life honey rose inside
With the still life honey rose

All your gifts come out of hell
You brought them back for luck/love?
Throw a bucket down into your well
You fill it with your blood

And you let it go
With the greatest ease
Cuz something always stays the same

In the dark of grave yard chatter
In the light of freedoms call
In the heat of any matter
We travel as equals or not at all

Bloom disgust and class divide
I saw it written on the wall
The only way we can survive
