the sun will rise at daybreak
the stars will shine at night
and you know that whatever happens it’ll be alright
there will still be a tomorrow
the birds will chirp and sing
you might be gone but for them it’s a new beginning
from dew drop covered mornings
reflecting in your eyes
to a moon that hangs above us like a swarm of fireflies
all we have in this world
is who we love and keep
so do everything you can to enjoy it before you sleep
the only thing that never changes is change
no matter what we try to do or rearrange
and though we might be leaving this home under the sun
be thankful for the anatomy of a thought undone
it’s time for a new beginning
it’s time to start again
no matter what we think or do we’re all just ordinary men
but if we band together
we can do most anything
We gotta open up our minds and hearts and take what it will bring
the only that never changes is change
no matter what we try to do or rearrange
and though we might be leaving this home under the sun
be thankful for the anatomy of a thought…
don’t let me run
don’t let me run
don’t let me run
don’t let me run
Our stories light the present
They burn bright like the sun
any one can paint the moonlight red for any other one
The nothing we all come from
Greets us eventually
everyone can live the life a dreamer lives finally

I
Oh I can’t be
Your enemy
A memory
And why
Oh can’t you see
That we’re not we
I’m barely me
Heaven knows in another life, another place and time
We would walk hand-in-hand forever, living out our lives
I
Won’t take your light
And it’s not right
To say I might
And my
(Old) second sight
Can see the write-
ing burning bright
Heaven knows in another world we’d get a curtain call
We would walk arm-in-arm together, (and) finally have it —>
All the times we went and chased it and let it slip away
Doesn’t mean our lives were wasted, we’ll start again today
Love’s a gift and we misplaced it, I hope we’ll be ok
All our flaws that we’ve embraced. It don’t make me wanna stay.
Make me wanna stay
Make me wanna stay
Make me wanna stay
Feeling like I’m lost and I can’t I…
Feeling like I’m lost and I can’t find you Annabelle
Dealing with a loss that knotted my…
Dealing with a loss that got me like “oh man it’s hell”
Oh man it’s hell
Oh man it’s hell
Giving what I can before my time…
Giving what I can before our time ends Annabelle
Living though I’m barely breathing I’m…
Annabelle I’m barely dealing living, can you tell?
Oh can you tell?
Oh can you tell?
All the times we went and chased it and let it slip away
Doesn’t mean our lives were wasted, we’ll start again today
Love’s a gift and we misplaced it, I hope we’ll be ok
All our flaws that we’ve embraced. It don’t make me wanna stay.
Make me wanna stay
Make me wanna stay
Make me wanna stay

life, it seems
really needs it's own eraser
a drink that needs a chaser
choke it down
choke it down
the one way i know
strife and dreams
one that feeds into another
none without each other
joke and frown
a joker clown
trivial john doe
past his plateau
darkness comes
i see something i don't know what
though i learned my lesson
i confess it's
long since forgot
i see now
darkness grows
heaven knows
that i don't know why
Once we lose the light
We’re left to write our
Long lullaby
life is great
if you take out all the needless
pain and all the ceaseless
running round
running round
with nowhere to go
no time to wait
speak but fake it, no one listens
hide avoid dismiss till
sun is down
a son is crowned
king of status quo
vandal van gogh
darkness comes
i see something i don't know what
though i learned my lesson
i confess it's
long since forgot
i see now
darkness grows
heaven knows
that i don't know why
Once we lose the light
We’re left to write our
Long lullaby

the momentum
03:13

I knew I’d be the one
to stop the rising sun
So now I’ll have my fun
In the dark
I thought I’d bide my time
I guess it was a crime
Cause now it seems like I’m
Falling victim to the world
On a path that I can’t see
In a place so far from home
In this gray reality
Of a place that I don’t know
Where it’s easier
Just to be with her
Cause I just can’t find the momentum I need to get away
I never wondered why
The dreams I had would die
‘Fore I could even try
Hard
I thought my time would come
But time can make you numb
And now it seems some-
One else got to spend it all
On a path that I can’t see
In a place so far from home
In this gray reality
Of a place that I don’t know
Where it’s easier
Just to be with her
Cause I just can’t find the momentum I need to get away

feeling the pain
05:09
|

I been
Trapped inside a moment
A Moment that quickly turned to years
Sick and not getting over it
Tired of hiding all my tears
And sadness now you’re gone
Cause I been feeling a pain that drags me down
(So) tired of dealing with rain always around
Slowly sinking and stuck here til I drown
Cause I been feeling a pain that drags me down
It gets
harder to remember
Memories slowly fade with time
That’s a
pain that lasts forever
Like losing you again I’m
Lost and barely holding on
Cause I been feeling a pain that drags me down
(So) tired of dealing with rain always around
Slowly sinking and stuck here til I drown
Cause I been feeling a pain that drags me down

I couldn’t find a way
When my shelter’s where I run
I made the same mistake
And I don’t know where I’m from
And what else can I say
I’m both ignorant and dumb
How can I love today
When redemption never comes?
If you wanna go and find me know that
I still feel there’s something missing
Take my head and cut it out and
I still feel there’s something missing
I don’t know why I can’t feel
But I still feel there’s
I couldn’t realize
All the Demons in my head
I tried to compromise
I lost everything instead
And once I fantasized
of a land of milk and bread
Shattered and dogmatized
On the leash on which I’m led
If you wanna go and find me know that
I still feel there’s something missing
Take my soul and cut it out and
I still feel there’s something missing
I don’t know why I can’t feel
But I still feel there’s something…

lovely day
07:27
|

Let me feel your breath
Let me feel your breath
Oh oh you scared me half to death
Let me feel your love
Let me feel your love
To help me rise above
And I know that it will be a lovely day
And I know that it will be a lovely day
Let me feel your skin
Let me feel your skin
I’m knocking, let me in
Let me be your one
Let me be your one
I’m burning like the sun
And I know that it will be a lovely day
And I know that it will be a lovely day
And I cannot tell the forest from the trees
My innervision vanished in my vanities
And what’s the point of life if I live on my knees
So let’s float far away
Into the air and moon
I need some care to get me through today

I can’t get near her
She’s like a mirror
Reflecting back my empty eyes
I can’t remember
Was it December?
She said she couldn’t recognize
I cannot swallow
That we’re so hollow
Empty enough to paralyze
I couldn’t realize that
Everything comes crashing down around my head
It’s what you said
What kills you only makes you dead
So don’t get strong
It won’t last long
And I always knew you were wrong
But I couldn’t make a sound
Oh oh oh oh
I couldn’t take it
The way she’d fake it
Like she thought we were just for show
I couldn’t save her
With what I gave her
She took much more than I could owe
She said she’d leave she
Said “please believe me
One day I’ll just pack up and go.”
I’m still the last to know
Everything comes crashing down around my head
It’s what you said
What kills you only makes you dead
So don’t get strong
It won’t last long
And I always knew you were wrong
But I couldn’t make a sound
Oh oh oh oh

little angel
i won’t always be around
don’t forget don’t let the darkness in
oh oh oh
cause life can be your medicine
little baby
i will take the sky and ground
give you your own world to start again
oh oh oh
cause life’s a game that no one wins
and i don’t know the steps that you’ll climb in your life
But I will stand behind you til I’m standing by
And you reach the sky
hold your head up
i know life can get your down
just know i’m there till the bitter end
oh oh oh
ill always be your nearest friend
and i don’t know the steps that you’ll climb in your life
But I will stand behind you til I’m standing by
And you reach the sky
but i don’t
i don’t know why the sunshine follows the rain
i don’t know, and i never will. we explain
that it wasn’t the same sun anyway
i don’t know
i don’t know why i’m calling your name
i don’t know why you burn bright just like a flame
When it wasn’t the same, son, anyway

so beautiful
02:53
|

i once saw something
so beautiful i couldn’t help but
i once saw something
so beautiful it made me wanna
i wanna
go down to the river and wash away all my sorrow
i wanna
go outside and let the sun shine me till tomorrow
i wanna see things that no one else see
i wanna be things that you said I couldn’t be
I wanna look at you and see you looking at me
i wanna live my life as long as that life is free
i wanna
i don’t know what i want
So i know i’m gonna get it
i can’t have everything
but i’m not gonna sweat it
i wanna be everything to everyone
i wanna be the father of the prodigal son
i wanna walk when everyone else has to run
i wanna live my life as long as that life is fun
i wanna
i don’t know when to stop so i’ll just keep going

too old to learn

Pull the pieces from the shore
Of the love I couldn’t tame
Of a love I’d known before
Though I couldn’t guess it’s name
And we gave each other time
We have nothing more to give
I would have given her my life
If it would have helped her live
Throw me in the ocean
Drown me in the sea
My regression motion
Sinking destiny
My only devotion
Lies eternally
With “the love you give not what you take”
The more you keep is the less you make
I’m finding out the difference all the time
Everything I know is wrong
But I’m just too old to learn
A new way to sing my song
Or fix bridges that I’ve burned
So I sit outside alone
Watch the dusk fade into night
All this reaping what i’ve sown
All these wrongs don’t make me right
Throw me in the ocean
Drown me in the sea
My regression motion
Sinking destiny
My only devotion
Lies eternally
With “the love you give not what you take”
The more you keep is the less you make
I’m finding out the difference all the time

the dreamer
06:45
|

A hundred million fingers pointing
At me when I woke this morning
Providing a solemn warning
Of everything that comes at dawn and
Spinning mixed with fun, disjointed
Birth of a new self reborn
And Everything is what it can’t be
There I see eyes glare and beaming
Warning call for double teaming
At the end, or when it’s seeming
Wake up frozen, sweating, screaming
Only sounds the heavy breathing
Greeting at the end of dreaming
Close my eyes, drift backwards to sleep.
There we see me sitting down
And you float gently on a cloud
And though I know I’m not allowed
To even make the slightest sound
I can’t hold back, I feel too proud
And hear myself let out a shout
And then I see you staring at me
My life with you, has been, it seems
Only lived within my dreams
So somehow, I’ll see you now
Before tomorrow
Cause I know it’s only time
But that’s the only thing that’s mine
So don’t wake
The dreamer
Everything I see is real
And you can’t change the way I feel
About the way I have to deal
Escape to something with appeal
Can be a valid way to heal
When life itself is my third wheel
So keep talking, but more quietly
And let’s forget until the sun
Reminds me that my time has come
And bitterly casts off my fun
To throw me back into the run
Where dreaming takes another form
A calm sea in a violent storm
Cause I make myself what I can’t be
My life with you, has been, it seems
Only lived within my dreams
So somehow, I’ll see you now
Before tomorrow
Cause I know it’s only time
But that’s the only thing that’s mine
So don’t wake
The dreamer
