Used to Be
04:09
|

I'm not what I used to be, all cold and dark and broken
But I'm not gonna say I was wrong
Not sure what you want from me, meant every word that was spoken
And anyway I think my chance is gone
Maybe we’ve both changed a lot since then
But tell me why you'd take me back again
Wounds heal, but I can see the scars
On those open arms, the arms that lead me to your broken heart
We can pursue this now, but if you choose to start
You might’ve noticed that I’m no work of art
I'm not what I used to be, all shattered smashed and splintered
But now I think I’ve got something to say
Not sure what you want from me, meant every word that was uttered\
And I think this is my chance anyway
Wounds heal, but I can see the scars
On those open arms, the arms that lead me to your broken heart
We can pursue this now, but if you choose to start
Well, I gotta warn ya that my edges are sharp and I’m no work of art
Wounds healed but I can see the scars
On those open arms, the arms that lead me to your broken heart
We can pursue this now, but if you choose to start
I gotta warn ya that my edges are sharp and I’m no work of art

Sleeping in My Bed
03:45
|

Somebody's been sleeping in my bed
Hear the sound of floorboard creaks
Somebody’s been messing with my head
Haven’t slept a wink in weeks
Counting sheep but I’m running out, I’m running out
Somebody's been scratching at your door
Somebody's been causing quite a scene
You say that you’ve seen these teeth before
I can huff I can puff but you won’t let me in
Counting sheep but you’re running out
Now you’re running out
This time I am gonna be the hero
Shed my skin and step into the light
Sick of playing the enemy
You can find somebody else for that tonight
Whoa….
Somebody’s been wearing their new clothes
Somebody’s been showing far too much
You think that you have it under control
But do you don’t, and you won’t have the magic touch
Counting sheep but you’re running out
This time I am gonna be the hero
Shed my skin and step into the light
Sick of being the enemy
You can find somebody else for that tonight
Whoa….

These Dry Bones
03:46
|
|||
There I was, turned to dust
Feel the hungry sun the distance
Approaching at the speed of light
Every movement draining resistance and life
There is no memory of water
Desperation builds at every turn
Every seen vision that is not her, it burns
There I was, turned to dust
There I was, turned to dust
Oh these dry bones
Oh these dry bones
Don’t know how far I will travel
And I have no idea how far I’ve come
But with every step I get closer by one
She’ll be there and my eyes will be lifted
And I’ll take my time and drink her in
But for now my pace has shifted and I’m singing this song again
Oh these dry bones
Oh these dry bones carry me home
Oh these dry bones
Oh these dry bones carry me home

The Long Way
04:25
|
|||
Seems you cried out so long ago
And the tone of your voice wouldn’t sound
The day has died out with certain hope
And tomorrow is smothered by now
It’s not the time for giving in
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way…
No one said it’d be a quick response
Or promised the skies would be clear
Even angels can go astray
But I’m sure that redemption is near
Just brace yourself against the storm
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way
It’s coming the long way, It’s coming the long way
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way
It’s coming the long way
Yeah assistance it will surely come
Sometimes it takes the scenic route
While you may be hanging by a thread, you might as well enjoy the view
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way
It’s coming the long way, It’s coming the long way
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way
It’s coming the long way, It’s coming the long way
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way
Hold on for help it’s coming the long way…

Half as Much
04:11
|
|||
In the darkness
In the middle of the fight
You rescued me
In the open
As the arrows come to bite
You became my shield
But you don't know
The secret's untold
I'll make it clear
You don't love me, dear
Half as much as I love you
Half as much as I do
Half as much as I love you
Profoundly
It's you and me
As you gasp out love
But you don't know
The secret's untold
I'll make it clear
You don't love me
My whole life, my whole heart
You hold in your hands
My whole life, my whole heart
You have control I let it go
But you don't know
The secret's untold
I'll make it clear
You don't love me, dear
Half as much as I love you
Half as much as I do
Half as much as I love you

This Is Your Song
04:23
|
|||
I wrote this song for tonight and I hope you hear it
Know it's you I'm singing to, and always will
Adore your face, I crave your smile and I love your spirit
So I’ll sing this song for you
This is your song, I knew it from the moment
We could go on, as long a there are days
It won't be long 'till we will see tomorrow
Seems it hasn’t been that long, but look how far we’ve gone
So this is your song
I know that it took me a while, to declare just how I
felt when you would look my way, or hold my hand
No way that I could explain, but I’ll give it a try
And I'll sing this song for you
This is your song, I knew it from the moment
We could go on, as long a there are days
It won't be long 'till we will see tomorrow
Seems it hasn’t been that long, but look how far we’ve gone
So this is your song
So much you've given me, I know
So much we've been through
Not much I could do, I can't repay
So I wrote this song for you
This is your song, I knew it from the moment
We could go on, as long a there are days
It won't be long 'till we will see tomorrow
Seems it hasn’t been that long, but look how far we’ve gone
So this is your song

I Won't Let You Down
03:05
|
|||
Maybe it's the sparkle in the air up here
Feels like nothing else could ever be this clear
But if the clouds that you are floating on disappear
I won't let you down
We may be miles above the ground
If we're lost I'll get us found
I won't let you down
Perched on a ledge
About to take a step over the edge
With my head bowed I remember the words I said
I won't let you down
We may be miles above the ground
If we're lost I'll get us found
I won't let you down
You got lost… looking for me
You fell… falling with me
Been through hell but it's my turn, my turn I guarantee
I’m not giving up, there is no way because you never gave up on me
I won't let you down
We may be miles above the ground
If we're lost I'll get us found
I won't let you down, I won't let you down
I won't let you down
We may be miles above the ground
If we're lost I'll get us found
I won't let you down, I won't let you down
I won't let you down, I won't let you down, I won’t let you down

I Hear Your Voice
04:15
|
|||
I hear your voice every time I close my eyes I see your smiling face
I can taste your skin when I'm falling back to sleep I try to live it all again
When will I see all of these visions start to end
The day I can be not looking backwards I'll be ready to begin
How did this song turn so sad
I'm missing the life we never had
We never had
I hear your name when I'm talking in my sleep it wakes me up and then
I taste the sting and the beauty of a sweet, barren undone dream
When will I see all of these visions start to end
The day I can be not looking backwards I'll be ready to begin
I'm ready to begin...
How did this all turn so sad?
I'm missing the life we never had, oh, oh and
How did this all turn so sad
I'm missing the life we never had
We never had
Did we ever have the life that I miss?
I hear your voice every time I close my eyes

Come Back Home
03:31
|
|||
I hope you'll give a call when you are able
You know that if you're stuck, I will pick you up
And there's a seat open at the table,
the seat right next to me, just where I wish you could be
This house is not a home unless you're here
Won't you come back home
Won't you come back home
Won't you come back home
Every day I look so I remember
At the picture of your face, the one I can't replace
But as the recollection's getting dimmer
The hope remains in bloom, that I will see you soon
Sometimes I hear a voice and think it's you
Won't you come back home
Won't you come back home
Won't you come back home
Oh I wish that I had done things differently
Now I wish that we could change the past
There are things I’ve held that I can’t grasp
Oh I wish that I had done things differently
Now I wish that we could change the past
There are things I’ve held that I can’t grasp
Won't you come back home
Won't you come back home
Won't you come back home

You Remain True
04:37
|
|||
Billowing plumes surrounded with sulfur fumes
As I move through siege under fire
Smoke in my lungs making it hard to breathe
Exhaling all my potency
With no words to utter
I shake and I shudder
But you remain true
You remain true
Blood red, the sky is staring its haunting gaze
On a face that is filling with grief
Pounding, my heart is beating its anthem tune
Once again as I strain for relief
Never knew the perils ahead
Never saw the hollow from which I bled
I was screaming inside for a cure
Then you reached out your hands
With no words to utter
I shake and I shudder
But you remain true
You remain true
Never saw the perils ahead
Never knew the mine field on which I tread
I was screaming inside for a cure
Then you reached out your hands and put an end to the war
You remain true
You remain true
You remain true
You remain true
