Holy Wonder
03:35
|

oh God, catalyst of light
where are you now, where are you now?
oh God, on my knees tonight
don't let me down, don't let me down
she moves like a holy wonder
no sooner does a rolling thunder knock me out
did you send me such an angel
just to take her away?
oh God, source of the fire,
why I inquire, why I desire
oh God, source of the river
taker and the giver, I need to be delivered
she moves like a holy wonder
no sooner does a rolling thunder knock me out
did you send me such an angel
just to take her away
she sees through the darkest part of me, it's true
she sees through the darkest part of me, it's true

Common Ground
04:09
|

the separation hurts
it's hard not to feel the jade
I know if I see myself in another
I let that landscape fade
but now I claw and I claw
at the wall on which you lean
I'm running from the beauty
only you can see
tell me to turn around
meet me on common ground
don't build it up just to tear it down
see my soul while we listen to that sound
if knowledge is a new pair of shoes
and grace is the laces
don't run away but faster to
the wonder of the unknown spaces
gotta get out, get out
get out the burning house
gotta get out, get out
the walls are coming down
tell me to turn around
meet me on common ground
don't build it up just to tear it down
see my soul while we listen to that sound
tell me to turn around
meet me on common ground
don't build it up just to tear it down
see my soul while we listen to that sound

Here I See More
03:17
|

could it be I believe in something that isn't true
could it be an enemy is creeping up on me dressed up as you
could it be infinite, forever even has an end
could it be gravity, this planet pulls at my ascent
now all is void and null
like a crown upon a skull
here i see more, here i see more
washing up upon the shore
can't go back to where I've been before
here i see more, here i see more
walking through that open door
here i see more
i don't know where to go, would you kindly light my path
i don't know, nobody told me how to differ this from that
i don't know how to fill my cup, it's all a work of fiction
i don't know, gotta wake up, i sing to silence contradiction
my sleeping mind and wasted time
pushing laws and crossing lines
here i see more, here i see more
washing up upon the shore
can't go back to where I've been before
here i see more, here i see more
walking through that open door
here i see more

Welcome To The Unknown
02:48
|
|||
something bout the chaos I can't deny
something bout the darkness before the light
something about uncertainty, no need for a plan
something bout the feeling right before you crash
brace yourself here we go, oh oh
here we go, oh oh, here we go
brace yourself here we go, oh oh
here we go, oh oh oh
welcome to the unknown
had a million chances, still go for broke
heard a million voices all blowing smoke
seen a million faces through the looking glass
still can't fight that feeling right before you crash
brace yourself here we go, oh oh
here we go, oh oh, here we go
brace yourself here we go, oh oh
here we go, oh oh oh
welcome to the unknown
I had it all figured out, knew it all without a doubt
until it all came crashing down
now Im living for a dream, running on fumes and gasoline
but that's all I really need
brace yourself here we go, oh oh
here we go, oh oh, here we go
brace yourself here we go, oh oh
here we go, oh oh oh
welcome to the unknown

A Song For Sonny
02:59

machiavelli, you got nothing on me
im gonna rule my world like you have never seen
no one to trust
at least you knew that much
im so over looking over my shoulder
im so over looking over my shoulder
oh why
play your cards close to an open heart
my great one, my lover right from the very start
nobody cares
with their own cross to bear
im so over looking over my shoulder
im so over looking over my shoulder
oh why
oh why

I've been thinking bout all the ways it went wrong
torturing myself and everyone around
the harder I try, the harder it gets
the harder it hurts, it's hard to forget
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I've been searching for something doesn't want to be found
losing myself in the wrong crowd
the higher I fly, the further I fall
the harder it hurts, damn right I recall
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I wanna lay it all down, down, lay it all down
I wanna lay it all down, down, lay it all down
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh
I'm just trying to make this thing my own, oh

Sotto Voce

you've gone to god to get the goods that give your gold no meaning
you left the lies to lighten the load that left you lustfully dreaming
you've overturned the coldest stone to feel the heat beneath it
renounce the name, the sword, the flame, sharpen just to sheath it
you've stolen the golden key, no longer caged in the courtyard
you've set yourself free to feel the healing of the scar
that fallacy, that fantasy, that pageant is a tragedy
forgive yourself for your facades of that man-made morality
oh no, oh no, oh don't you turn away
a blind eye still knows the light of day
oh no, oh no, oh don't you turn away
who you are, who you are, who you are
is yours to claim
now you can handle all that has to happen, wax and wane with the harvest moon
careful what you feed your dragon, what you serve will be consumed, yes
faith or fear she'll feast and fatten so what of you will blossom and bloom
forego for no one your own fashion, listen for the voice within you
listen for the last line, listen for the truth
fly far beyond forever with the winds of time behind you
no need to be afraid, sweet embrace of elevation
when the revolution's over, it's time for restoration
oh no, oh no, oh don't you turn away
a blind eye still knows the light of day
oh no, oh no, oh don't you turn away
who you are, who you are, who you are
is yours to claim

Don't Watch Me Walk Away
03:44
|
|||
you said it's beautiful tonight
and you were off to follow the sky
you had your moment of the kairos kind
it was never yours to decide so you sighed to say
don't watch me walk away
don't watch me walk away
don't watch me walk away tonight
you said it's beautiful tonight
you heard the voice and saw the light
a brother doesn't always know what he leaves behind
it was never yours to choose, life is ours to lose you say
don't watch me walk away
don't watch me walk away
don't watch me walk away tonight

The Way Of The Wanderer
03:42
|
|||
this one's for you and the ship you sail into uncharted waters
this one's for you and the train you derailed to take it a bit further
this one's for you and that sentiment you sent and should never regret
this one's for you having never heretofore ever been so hell bent
you've gone the way of the wanderer
you won't drive as the crow flies
you've gone the way of the wanderer
you won't follow those straight lines, oh no
this one's for you and the times you tried to keep it together
this one's for you and the times you told yourself to be better
this one's for you, maybe not the one everyone is talking about
this one's for you and the reputation you could do without now
you've gone the way of the wanderer
you won't drive as the crow flies
you've gone the way of the wanderer
you won't follow those straight lines, oh no
you've gone the way of the wanderer
you won't drive as the crow flies
you've gone the way of the wanderer
you won't follow those straight lines, oh no

Undertow
03:38
|

i never thought you'd make it on a magazine
i never thought you'd ever remember me
so many nights, so many days
i held on too tights it swept me away
i don't think that it could've ever been any other way than this
i don't ever want you to see me drowning, I'm caught up in that
undertow, undertow, never gonna let me go
undertow, undertow, careful what you wish for
you never know
i always knew what you were waiting for
i always knew you would be wanting more
so many rights, so many wrongs
so many fights, so many songs
i don't think that it could've ever been any other way than this
i don't ever want you to see me drowning, I'm caught up in that
undertow, undertow, never gonna let me go
undertow, undertow, careful what you wish for
you never know
i don't think that it could've ever been any other way than this
i don't ever want you to see me drowning, I'm caught up in that
undertow, undertow, never gonna let me go
undertow, undertow, careful what you wish for
you never know

The Waiting Game
03:01
|
|||
i can't shake the way it was supposed to be
id rather revel in the seven deadly, but you won't let me
deprivation of reputation for no more trepidation
that's what you ask, but underneath my mask what's left of me
i wanna give you something but i know that song would never do
i wanna give you something for everything I got from you
the sun will shine and melt the snow
but i can't deny what i feel below
i hate to play the waiting game
and so i shoot before i aim
tell me why oh why do i shoot before i aim
feel like a child with debts to pay
wanna do so much more than make it through the day
dont wanna see the color fade to gray
don't want to listen to all i hear
it holds me back, it holds me back
and you won't pull me any further
will you wait, will you wait
i can get there on my own
the sun will shine and melt the snow
but i can't deny what i feel below
i hate to play the waiting game
and so i shoot before i aim
tell me why oh why do i shoot, oh
sentimental to my detriment
so what if i wanna stay that way
i must muster the gusto to make my foray
but I'm bound by perpetual precipice of epiphany
the sun will shine and melt the snow
but i can't deny what i feel below
i hate to play the waiting game
and so i shoot before i aim
tell me why oh why do i shoot before i aim

Witness
03:45

so it seems every story's been told
what's so special bout me
so it seems everyone has someone to hold
what's so special bout me
in another frightful nightmare you looked at me
and there was nothing there for you to see
and even though at night my bedside is cold
there's something special bout me
i get to witness you
i get to witness you
i get to witness all of you
the light of a hundred suns dancing through the trees
and i can count more stars than there used to be
what did i do to deserve such a gift
why am i the one who is shown all of this
when i awake, the wanting inside subsides
there's something special bout me
i get to witness you
i get to witness you
i get to witness all of you
i get to witness you
i get to witness you
i get to witness all of you

Thank You
03:51
|
|||
I'm having one of those, i know you know the nights
and i just wanna say thank you, thank you
so excited to be finding new insights
and i just wanna say thank you, thank you
I've been feeling like its about that time
for me to say thank you, thank you
gotta stop faking it, stop taking it, so i can have whats mine
and i can finally say thank you, thank you
thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
street still glistening with yesterday's rain
and i just wanna say thank you, thank you
i would never know this happiness without previous pain
and i just wanna say thank you, thank you
I've been cracked wide open, I'm better cuz I've been broken
and I just wanna say thank you, thank you
bully for beautiful bullshit to take me to this moment
and i'm saying thank you, thank you
it took so long to get here
didn't realize till I stopped running
your whisper i can hear
what i have to say has been a long time coming
I've got to, I've got to, I've got to, I've got to say thank you now
I've got to, I've got to, I've got to, I've got to say thank you now
I've got to, I've got to, I've got to, I've got to say thank you now
I've got to, I've got to, I've got to, I've got to say thank you loud
thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
