- Blistered Hands
See these blistered hands
Try to understand what I've been doing all these years
Driving through the miles
You think that I've gone wild but I'm just living in such fear
Afraid that all the songs I write are never gonna see the light of day
Cause I've been living like a vagabond ever since I first learned how to play
That's ok because it's all the same to me
- Breathe Again
Snow in the air, as it rides the winter breeze
Crystals of ice are hanging from the trees
The morning of Christmas has arrived in its due time
The children are waiting, their joy becomes mine
We march down the stairs and into the other room
The lights shining bright on the tree for all to view
The window is shattered and the presents are all gone
- Bullets In The Air
Don't say a word
Choose them carefully
They're like bullets in the air
You should aim your gun before you pull the trigger
Or maybe you should just put it away
You've got it bad
And no one understands
- Comfort In The Orchestration
One day you're certain
of how things will be.
Then you're bewildered
and robbed of your glee.
And this is what happens next:
the curtains are drawn;
the stage of your life revealed,
- Do You Realize
Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful face
Do You Realize - we're floating in space -
Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cry
Do You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die
And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them know
You realize that life goes fast
It's hard to make the good things last
- Feeling In The Night
Stop what you're doing
Can't you see I'm helpless?
I'm helpless
You,
You put your spell on me
I can't fight it
Your hair, your dress, beside the table candlelight
- Flowers By The Moon
In the night
Quiet glow
We're beneath the shining stars
And the breeze
Cool and calm
Whispers to us from afar
And the waves
- Great Blue Sea
Fall into the sea
Arms spread, wide into the airborne breeze
Away... Fall Away
The creatures I might meet
They wonder how a man makes such a feat
But I wonder how long I can last if I don't breathe
- Just Wait
One more day and it's all the same.
Time is a poison and it's coursing through my veins.
Got somewhere to be and I'll be done if i know where.
The ink is broke and the well is dry.
There's nothing wrong here that refuses to be set right.
I keep pushing forward but the scenery won't change.
All the days that I live, the best is yet to come if I just wait for it.
- Let it Go
Don't know what I'm thinking,
But I can tell that something's different tonight
These moments I can't talk about,
But I recall the joy I felt with such delight
I know that my heart's been here before,
But my mind could never find the words to say
How feeling so small yet so adored,
- Morning Cloud
I saw two clouds this morning
Tangled by the rising sun
And in the dawn they floated on and mingled into one
Well, I thought that morning cloud was blessed
How it moved so sweetly to the west
He bids me to leave this dreary world
Oh I have to go
- Nice To Meet You
There comes a time
When you make up your mind
Of way to lay your lonely roots down
And I've been travelin' so far and wide
Seen the deepest depths and heights beyond high
So I'm surprised to see you with my eyes
? and left your face so incomplete
- Nightingale
Oh the world is still
It's quiet as a mouse, it's 3 am
Wide awake, trying to get the words out of my mouth
But I can't make a sound since you left me lying here in my bed
While you're running off with him
Everything in my world was yours, when I held you tenderly
I was once in his shoes, I had everything to lose and so I did
- Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind
Look outside my window tell me what you see
The cars are moving fast and people in a hurry
Such dizzy lives
Oh look at them all go
I think I'll take the day off
Think I'll take it slow
I think I'll spend another hour in bed
- Psalm
Time keeps moving like a highway track;
I'm parked on the shoulder with a broken clutch.
Never used to struggle with keeping up,
till I was drowning in my sorrow with my backside up.
I'm losing touch; I'm desperate.
I need a miracle...need a miracle.
- Soon It Shall Be
Your hair in the wind puts asunder
All the cares this world has to give
And the lights in your eyes bring such wonder
To a man who thought all had been seen
Though the nights have been cold and unkind, dear
Oh that smile on your face is marigold
That blooms in the springtime for lovers anew
- Symptom Of A Stumbling
Fast Asleep
She's next to me
Her heart, it beats
So steadily
Her hopes and fears
And all her Dreams
She puts in me
- The Moments In Between
The moments in between the words I hear you speak
Are desolate and clean and leave me feeling weak
I just want to see the beautiful world in my dreams
But all I see is me in the center of all I seek
Now I feel like a ghost in a world that is fading
- The Mystery Of Our Day
The world is just a playing field for man
And the blanket sky will cover every last event
From the battles of the ages to the baby sleeping tight
I could sing a rhyme and try to
Find the reasons for each place and time
To wrap the world around my mind, but I know at best...
Words were never meant for
- Thrill Of The Fall
I feel a tension at the seams
I feel a pressure I never dreamed
I feel there's something more at stake
Too late to run away, too late to run away
Something screaming inside me wants me to stay
I've got to stay
I've got to stay
- Till We Make Our Ascent
Stay here, stay in the moment
Where the blooming of spring never ends
Let's go down by the willow tree
Roll with the hills 'till we make our ascent
All I imagined is all that I see
Gardens of flowers and warm summer breeze
There's a place where no trouble is seen
