Love Gone By
04:05

Find my way to your apartment
Where I find a new place
To hide away
And the stares
Of the people that I meet along the way
They seem to say
That I’m home
I’m going home
I used to know happiness
For a while, as a child
With my friend, in the sand
She held my hand
I understand
That these days are now gone
They are gone
I spend my days just sitting here
It’s not so clear
I’ll just disappear
Into the thought of her eyes
I’m hypnotized
And I know
It’s not a show
It’s a love gone by
As she waves goodbye

Anthems of Home

Home
That’s where I wanna be
Back where the leaves are green
And the lawn’s nicely mowed
‘Cause it’s home
Can’t get my mind around
The uselessness of this town
Give me those gravel roads
‘Cause it’s home
Yeah, that’s home
No central air, just a fan
My dad has a farmer tan
Yeah, and he’s just the man
That I want to be
And momma she’s cooking food
I got slapped for being rude
And the Bible says that is good
Yeah, and that’s home
Underneath shaded trees
Lying in fields of wheat
Until mom calls us on
To our home
My first kiss was behind the shed
How I long for the innocence
Growing up
I had known
‘Cause it’s home
Yeah, that’s home
My brother says, ‘Have a catch’
My sister, yeah, she was fast
And my dad was the quarterback
And momma she’d cheer us on
She did ever since we were young
‘Til this day she still carries on
Yeah, that’s home
But now it’s all fading fast
Wanna make the moment last
And savour life in the past
Of being at home
Now you’re asking me if I would
I wouldn’t change it if I could
‘Cause that’s when my life was good
Was being at home

No Reservation
05:20

|

The pale of the blue light
It’s all around me
My fists clenched so tight
My sin heaped upon me
I’m saddled and ready
With the weight of the world
As my guide
And so I ride
Into the great divide
Where I choose
I choose
I choose to abide
And so I find
The courage to say
Lord
Please give me
Some other way
And no reservation
And no obligation
And no condemnation
And it seems to me
That I’m stuck in the same dream
With no easy way out
And I’m searching for truth
I’m searching for comfort
But I’m really searching for you
What would I find?
If I ever found you
But I’m scared
I’m scared
To figure that out
And so I find
The courage to say
Lord
Please give me
Some other way
And no reservation
And no obligation
And no hesitation
And no isolation
And no condemnation

Senseless

I didn’t cry
When I lost sight in both of my eyes
‘Cause I have seen
What most men would only dream
And I’ve seen you
I didn’t fear
When my ears could no longer hear
‘Cause lingering
Are the notes you used to sing
And you’re all that I hear
Angels stop to see
All the beauty and grace you exude
In my disbelief
Caught up in only the vision of you
And what my life could mean
When you said ‘I love you’
And I could care less
That my hands cannot tell
What they possess
Or taste so sweet
Or the smell of the dew
Running off of the tree
‘Cause you’re all around me
Angels stop to see
All the beauty and grace you exude
In my disbelief
Caught up only in the vision of you
And what my life could mean
When you said ‘I love you’
I didn’t cry
When I lost sight in both of my eyes
I didn’t fear
When my ears could no longer hear
And I could care less
That my hands cannot tell
Or taste so sweet
Or the smell of the dew
Running off of the tree
‘Cause you’re all around me
And I lost my senses
I lost my senses
I lost my senses
When I lost you

Talking Too Loud
02:46
|
|
||
|
Sometimes I often wonder aloud
Sometimes I wonder what it is
That keeps my feet here upon the ground
And I’m talking aloud
Some times we had were often okay
Sometimes I wanna try to wrap around
The words that you are trying to say
I’m not listening anyway
And you talk about it
You’re talking too loud
My words become entangled in fear
I really just wanna say
The words that you really wanna hear
When I fucked up your ear
You talk about it
You’re talking too loud
My words are weapons
You beat into the ground
You kill them with a sound
You’re talking too loud
We’re talking too loud
(whistling interlude)
My words are weapons
You beat into the ground
You kill them with a sound
You’re talking too loud
We’re talking too loud
Sometimes I often wonder aloud
Sometimes I wonder what it is
That we haven’t even really found
‘Cause we’re talking too loud

Vacant
05:11
|
|
||
|
The waking bell tolls on this town
Beneath, the vacant streets
In January
And I meet the fleeting worry
And the fear
It calls my name
To come inside again
And again
So here I stand
At the crossroads
With nothing on my feet
There I am
As you foretold
With no one there to greet
All I know is
When we’re together
The world seems so sincere
When we’re together
The pain just disappears
So, cut me free from this tether
And float through skies so blue
So, can I stay here forever?
Or will you leave me, too?

Fairytale Ending
05:22
|
|
||
|
Follow me down
To where the vagrant city sleeps
Past the corner store
Where the vacant people and buildings collide
I was on my way home
From a thankless job
In this thankless town
I stopped in retort
And I thought this life would
Hold so much more
So much more
I’m getting tired of running
And being nothing but scared
So, I stopped to console
A ghastly man
With a ghastly name
He met me with scorn
The kind of scorn that knows no shame
And he told me
Son
There’s only one thing on which to rely
And if you’re searching for truth
Just have somebody
Tell you a lie
Tell you a lie
So, I’m no longer running
And I’m not even scared
‘Cause I have come
So far on my own
On my own feet I’ll stand
And find my way back
To this fairytale
When all this is said and done
I will prevail
And ride off
In to the setting sun
Where I belong
‘Cause I have come
So far on my own
On my own feet I’ll stand
And find my way back
To this fairytale
When all this is said and done
I will prevail
And ride off
Into my setting sun

Never Say Goodbye
03:33
|
|
||
|
I’m leaving today, she said
But not right away
So, come back to bed
Where we’ll stay
All day
And forget what has led us to this game
We play
And never say goodbye
Again
And never say goodbye
Again
If I’m leaving today
Remember what we said
That all this time we saved
Would never go unspent
And we saved up enough for both our lives
To never be apart
And when have to close our eyes
It’ll only be a start
Only a start
I’m leaving today, he said
Now that you’ve gone away
I’ll lay down my head
And I’ll find my way
To where you say we’re heading
In this grave we laid
And never say goodbye
Again
We’ll never say goodbye
Again

Would you carry me through this perfect night?
Oh Angeline
I’m falling for you
Would you follow me to the distant light?
My heart skips a beat
With the things that you do
I’m not the kind of boy to speak my mind
So, I’ll pick and choose
When I lose my train of thought
And stumble around
Like a bumbling fool
It’s just that I’m so in love
With you
Throw away all your guards that block me out
I’ll drop the charade
That I’m getting through
Try to meet me somewhere in between
Like a fly to your paper, I’m stuck to your glue
You’re not the kind of girl
To let her guard down
So, I’ll pick and choose
The sincerest of reproach
To approach the way that my heart is true
‘Cause I’m so in love
With you
Would you me carry through this perfect night?
Oh Angeline
How I wish it were true
Though my words are falling at your feet
It’s the purest gesture I offer to you
‘Cause I’m so in love
With you

Lullaby

Goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
All your dreams
Will soon be here
Goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
Time will erase
Your every tear
All I really wanted
Was all I couldn’t see
All I really wanted
Was you
With me
So, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
Soon you will awake
And see it clear
Goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
In time
You will erase your every fear
All I really wanted
Was all I couldn’t see
All I really wanted
Was you
With me
So, goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, goodnight
Here me softly singing
In your ear
Goodnight, goodnight
Goodnight, sleep tight
My love for you
Won’t disappear

A Sorted Affair

Suffering through
Another wasted move
The dust on the shelf is gathered
Time to myself
Time to myself
I keep to myself
Where did you find the time
To sort through your life
The boxes you’ve kept me around
If I don’t make sound
When I’m down
Would you keep me around?
Would you keep me around?
Would you keep me around?
And all at once
It’s crashing down
Am I awake in this dream?
And through the dark
I scream out loud
Will you come around?
Will you keep me around?
Would you keep me around?
Keep me around
