What Now?
03:55
|
|||
|
What do we do now that the hero has left?
What more is there to say?
All these words just waste my breath,
They all sound wrong anyway.
Where do we go now that heaven is gone?
What else is there to see?
Other places seem so wrong,
None of them look right to me.
What will we say, where will we go,
What will we see?
What do we think, think we can do
What can we be?
What happens when you hit eternity’s end?
What more is there to know?
All the time searching we spent
And I just want to go home.
All the time searching we spent
All the words that waste my breath
All the plans that fill our heads
And we do it all again
What have we become now that the enemy’s dead?
What else is there to be?
With no plans to fill our heads,
What do you do when you’re free?

Pieces of You
03:27
|
|||
|
When I wake up alone and decide that it’s time for a change
When the familiar turns out to be strange
Just when I decide to try something new
Then I fall into pieces of you
When neither obstacles nor opportunities raise their heads
When both friends and foes have all fled
At that point I’m certain I know what to do
But I fall into pieces of you
When the house and yard all lay in ruin
And it’s unclear what I’m being or doing
I step back to see it all from another point of view
When I fall into pieces of you
When uncertain the life I’m living is mine
When uncomfortable starts to feel fine
I pull up the courage to insist that it’s through
And I fall into pieces of you
When the voices I hear are speaking in tongues
After pleading my case the jury comes back hung
Everything I said I believed to be true
Yet I fall into pieces of you

Used To
04:15

I used to feel breakfast was too early
But I got used to it
I used to feel a week was too long
But I got used to it
I used to feel my shoes were too heavy
But I got used to them
I used to think the sky was so big
But I got used to it.
I used to think the moon was so bright
But I got used to it
I used to think the air smelled so good
But I got used to it
But I never thought
I’d get used to you
I used to find your eyes so enticing
But now I’m used to you
I used to find your smile so alluring
But now I’m used to you
I used to find your laugh so enthralling
But now I’m used to you
But I never thought
You’d get used to me, too.

If Only
04:40

I wish I was sick
So people would be nice to me
And bring me gifts
And be my friend
So I'd heal
I’d grow strong again
I’d cook for you
And keep you well
=
I wish I were trapped
So somebody would rescue me
And take me home
And be my friend
So I could feel free
Not be afraid again
To protect you
And keep you safe
=
I wish I was hurt
So some one would take care of me
And stay by my side
And be my friend
And I would mend
Become whole again
To look after you
And keep you from harm
=
I wish I was sad
So somebody would comfort me
And tell me jokes
And be my friend
So I’d cheer up
No need to cry again
I’d laugh with you
And make you smile
=
If you’d be my friend
I could be there for you

the Breakfast Song
02:01
|
|||
|
I can taste you in my breakfast
the extra sweetener serves to remind me
that you can't ever
Leave me, leave me, always grieve me
Promise me you'll stay here, stay here in the air
Around me
I can smell you in my car
the burning oil which fills the air and assures me
that you won't ever
Leave me, leave me, don't deceive me
Promise me you'll stay here, stay here in the air
Around me, around me
I can feel you in my shoe
the stone which rubs my ankle raw just proves to me
that you won't ever
Leave me, leave me, please believe me
From this day on my breakfast won't ever
Be the same

Rollin' and Tumblin'
02:54
|
|||
|
Well, I'm rollin' and tumblin', cried the whole night long
Well, I'm rollin' and tumblin', cried the whole night long
When I woke up this mornin', everything I had was gone
If the river was whiskey, and I was a divin' duck
If the river was whiskey, and I was a divin' duck
I'd dive to the bottom, and I'd never come up
Well, I could a had a religion on any Sunday
Well, I could a had a religion on any Sunday
But whiskey and women wouldn't let me have my way

I Am
04:09
|
|||
|
When your bills are late
I am
When your plane's delayed
I am
When your keys are misplaced
I am
When the number's been erased
I am
When the ocean hits the shore
I am
When the mountains kiss the clouds
I am
When the sun meets the horizon
I am
When the sky touches the stars
I am
When breath fills your lungs
I am
When speech has left your tongue
I am
When your cup overflows
I am
When joy fills your soul
I am

|
The rain couldn't wash away my sins and neither could the sun
They'll follow me throughout the day to be seen by everyone
And remain to fill my heart when all else is gone
And so I'll wear them until the earth ends
The wind couldn't dry up my tears and neither could the night
Like a crown upon my head I show them in plain sight
So people can admire them until the final light
And so I'll wear them until the earth ends
The fog couldn't hide my pain and neither could the dawn
All who cross my path can recognize it's familiar song
It advises me on my way until my card is drawn
And so I'll wear it until the earth ends
The snow couldn't erase my fears and neither could the sky
They'll always be on display to every passerby
They'll stay here to comfort me long past the day I die
And so I'll wear them until the earth ends

Fading Away
06:06
|
|||
|
I once was like you
Waiting on a moment
Vision stretching so far
In a life out of focus
Waiting patiently for the sunrise
Hoping the darkness would be
Fading away
We once shared a dream
Shoved in our back pocket
Running through the fields
Feet so cut and swollen
We could never reach the horizon
Worried that the sunset would bring
Fading away
The fields that we’ve sown
The truths that we’ve known
The friends that we’ve let down
All of the bushes we beat around
Fading away
The obstacles we create
The internal debate
The past that we try to hide
As well as the future we left behind
We couldn’t see between the stars
Knowing the moonlight would mean
Fading away
All the lies we told
The sand we tried to hold
The world that we pushed against
And also our greatest defense
Fading away
The battles we rush toward
The memories we horde
The enemies we cling to
Even these words that I sing to you
Even the darkness and silence
Are fading away
