Am I Home
03:32
|
|||
I bring my soul with me
Am I home?
If your voice, it isn’t there
Am I alone?
Can’t this road guide me?
I’ll take it slow
If the signs they aren’t there
Should I go?
Photograph the shadows of my life
Then I hold on to the light
And I burn those shadows bright
If I knew answers
I would tell
But I’m missing half the mark
And I’m not well
So I will sit silent
In my room
Building patience in my chair
I’ll be there soon
If I shouldn’t then I know that I should
No bad, no good
Listen deeper than you ever thought you could
If there’s no bad, there’s no good

Symmetry
04:16
|
|||
I cannot lie
To save my life
I’ve stumbled here from a colder part
When I kept it all inside my heart
Tell me
What should I make of the symmetry?
The way I see it
It’s for me
Then I try, to shake it off
Let it all go, let it fall down
In short time
We lost our minds
We set up camp in a burnt out wood
We needed more than we really should

White Heart
03:47
|
|||
White heart, isn’t it a shame
The days are stolen
You start, only to refrain
No empty words
Come closer, you’ll hear my
Empty words
If I could start again
So far, looking over time
The landscape changes
In part, and when it comes to mind
I remember words
Come closer, you’ll feel my
Beating heart
If I could start again
I’m asleep at the wheel
And time is lost again
How I loved you before
And know I could again
Come and listen to my heart

Inspiration
03:25
|
|||
I’m struggling here
To share all my dreams
I see it clear
I know it is near
Then I fall back down
Down in my sheets
I’m turning around
My feet on the ground
Gonna put this behind me (x3)
Sing it like I won’t back down
I’ve seen it once or twice
Then it disappears around the bend
Never to return again
And if I catch a glimpse
I know it’s likely not to last
I’m hiding in my sheets again

Reflections
03:36
|
|||
The calla lily in my room it speaks to me
Whatever happened to the boy with all those dreams
Tell me again, how you remember when we first met
Up by the stage, you were talking to a mutual friend
They played that song
That tells the story of a long lost love
I’ve settled on the fact
It was telling what my future holds
If I only knew
What the story said
I could have been more aware
The calla lily in my room it speaks to me
All of the things I thought we’d do were make believe
Tell me again, how you feel about the hardest parts
As I have learned, it’s better if we don’t pretend
If I knew about my own heart
What I need and where to start
If I could have kept my head
I could have kept my home
And seen my lady in the morning

What I Am
02:53
|
|||
Suddenly I feel like I’m holding on
To something I should really leave
And move, on from
Give up, these thoughts
Of what I am
It’s here and, I feel it
It’s moving in and out of focus (x2)
It comes into clarity in short time
When I start to quiet down
And clear my mind
Give up, these thoughts
Of what I am

Safety
02:37
|
|||
Am I holding you down?
I know I’m keeping you out
While I investigate the mysteries
And wonder what it’s all about
Over many years
My grip has come undone
If I thought I would have been safe there
Then I wish I would have stayed
Did I tell you my fears?
Did I make my feelings clear?
I should have known about my boundaries
I could have kept my family near

I Let You Down
04:09
|
|||
It all keeps coming down
Down into the fiery gates
I see them now
All around
I let you down, mmmmm
After all of this is said
What is going to happen to
Those words I kept
In my heart
I let me down, mmmmm
I let you down, mmmmm
Somewhere in my chest full of secrets
I keep it safe
Come a little closer my dear
I won’t make you wait
I feel like I should really have told you
I meant to, be
Someone you could really look up to
I hope you can see

Sit With It
04:17
|
|||
A hundred years ago
Out past the waves
That crash into the shore
I felt a lighting bolt
That put my back against the wall
If I told you
That I would not
Be ever coming back
To what has passed
To what has passed
Come back and sit with it
Feel it rush into my head
Come back and be with it
Let it settle in my chest
I see what is coming round
He’s moving up slow
Without a sound
He’ll take what I owe
And I know what I know what I know what I know

Slow It Down
02:09
|
|||
I need someone to slow it down
Keep me here in the morning
High above the water
I’m looking down
I’m looking down
I’m here right now
All the colours
Change from green to gold
And I see them now
Oh, the stories, I have told
But I’m here right now
