Cloudy Day Lullaby 04:05
lyrics
buy track
Lover talks softly now My ears may be ringing For awhile But who needs hearing now When around me, all I see Are blue skies Blues skies change to grey But I'll stay hopeful That they'll return soon Come and go to see Sorrow In the darkened sun Look out where the sun Used to be And know it has found tomorrow Sweet dreams passing sun When missing I feel your gone A day full of changing skies There's still room For an unchanging night Soon, it is coming soon One day of light Is not enough

A Record of A Storm 03:21
lyrics
buy track
Lights go out in Boston Maybe we have lost sense From a record of a storm The future is so forlorn Heaven is just a soft word Nothing less than a quick whirl To be tangled up inside There's nothing left to hide Just the ground Take us up What is left to offer I hope there's more we've lost for Bring feelings we can trade Where is the grace? I found myself in lost crows A feeling only God knows To see where he hills go dancing When all is gone from laughing Inside a coffin Fit for everyone

Between Them 04:05
lyrics
buy track
Get off my mind Off my mind Though sweet in our days There's no feeling Summer flies by Oh by and by The warmth brings Lost greetings You say "Give me all your time All your time." Still your touch keeps me Freezing Take all your care Cause you took mine A wish for Mercy End a short goodbye Or a long goodbye It all seems so Easy A look, a look To take me away Blue eyes never seemed so Lovely

Brea The Now 03:41
lyrics
buy track
Do I see me Though my friends show Without Does life go slow Or am I stuck here In doubt I can't breathe Anymore I can't breathe Anymore It's a short start A wish that Falls too low I can't change that My motives Just won't I can't breathe Anymore I just drop Through feelings Unknown If you must know Loose purpose Can still show I can't breathe Anymore Breathe takes away Breathe takes away Breathe takes away Breathe takes away

Come Outside 05:31
lyrics
buy track
Come outside Come outside Come outside Please come outside See them go Watch them leave Bury your face Deep, deep in the snow People change With this place From thoughts of love And thoughts of hate Open the door and hear that old whistle Feel the cold wind Even the the seats are warmer Inside you give in You give in These cold hands This old jacket They hide on the walls They hide on the walls This same feeling flies past us We're feeling too old I'm feeling too old To come outside Come outside Come outside Please come outside

Dove on Distant Oaks 03:10
lyrics
buy track
Dove on distant oaks Are you coming soon? Is my growing pain Enough for you? Dove on distant oaks Do you hear my prayers? Though you see my heart Do you dwell in there? I'm asking take each broken Part of mine The branches sway But grow in time Dove on distant oaks Hold on tight I feel my greatest debt Is unjustified Death, oh death Does your bite still linger on Because my newfound triumph Says the pain is gone Dove on distant oaks Do my feet still fail? Or do your heavenly wings Carry me through A trust for me to not let go Sweet safety through the roaring truth Dove on distant oaks You're coming soon Left my crumbling shelter Find you

Black on Black 03:14
lyrics
buy track
Black on black Tracked down at last At least part of me Can see what's going on At least marred mankind Still desires more Is it more To keep the lights off Just to force yourself to sleep? To conquer what is crushed To make yourself complete? Words seem so worthless now Yet I can't afford to speak I'm thrown out, though all is well My tears begin to sing "Let peace fly all around us! Let no hatred surround! Hands were made to unite Not to tie each other down." But emotions last a moment A moment gone too soon Whether in the clouds or not Dreams can't always come true So petty So out-of-control So overwhelming So beautiful

Cold, Shaky 04:02
lyrics
buy track
Open free air Kids laugh for their cares Freedom calling softly In the length of her hair Lost in it a book For the last time now Everybody is laughing At a shame I once took I'm cold Shaky Clean until the morning Wait Maybe It's not as bad as it seems For me Foaming from the mouth At least that's all I heard But teachers out to get The better of the good If red is in our blood Then happy we'll be Found myself here In the midst of disease It's just too straightforward To take but not stay To live in the color But my visions gone grey Three long lines To the end of all time Guess we've got awhile To be stuck in a smile But I'm cold Shaky Clean until the morning Wait Maybe It's not as bad as it seems For me I hear some born again laughter A joke from the wall I can't meet in the middle For the sake of us all I thought it once And once I have heard That teachers out to get The better of the good But I'm cold Shaky Clean until the morning Wait Maybe It's not as bad as it seems For me

Past Bedtime 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Hush now The love is asleep I can't give out Or give in to the weak I saw you Around too long But the other day Seemed just the same As all before But a flame is not a sight for me I can't even count how long it has been I've seen much worse than this I'm cursed now And the fears are pristine They're almost too loud To let us rest in peace But the other day With my hopeful fate I crossed the line To go against the push of the stream The cold rush fills me quickly I've seen much worse than this Hush now I've waited too long

Sold Beneath the Crown of Us All 04:57
lyrics
buy track
The memories are so fine But now all I'm left with is something too dry Give up the ghost until you won't But my heart doesn't ache Even after the day has gone I feel all the same I'm not missing the plains I'm just fine Lost or found on unknown ground My hometown keeps turning in Now I only wonder which direction to go So I'll walk towards the sun Cause the sun never blinded us And though it's bizarre and it seeks oh so far We can reach it some day In truth remains my own sweet song A collection of wounds that turn me wrong Don't expect me to stop as if it's too late Because it's you or it's me It could never be both of us For one has to stay within the space of today To move on Look at all we've turned against Who needs hope in bitterness? Sold beneath the crown of us all Well I laughed and I laughed Out all that was left of me And the world stays the same Yet I'm all too late To be broken inside.

Enough About the Clouds 04:28
lyrics
buy track
Crushed by the tall one I might try for a moment But the spins in my head aren't amused And neither are the people I once knew I can't reach These heights Hold on But not too tight If you would just wait Another day The maybe I wouldn't have to fake it Carried away by their crying It's their tears, not mine But will all the looks I've been getting Maybe everyone cares that I can't reach These heights They can see through Me now They say aim for What's above Enough About the clouds
