All Comes Down - top

you try so hard to build this up
but it always brings you down
you try so hard to live it up
but it always comes around

what if tomorrow it
all comes down
and everyone falls to the ground
and when the sun sets you look around
and everyone's lost their crown

you've walked this hill so many times
now you walk this path alone
you lost the thrill so many times
but your life is set in stone

you're made to run
but they slow you to a crawl
you're made to run
but they live to make you fall
you're made to run
but they got to have it all
you're made to run
but they never make you fall

All the World - top

I've been working at these knots for a long time
Trying to find what I'm tied to the tightest
Fist full of confidence
Fistful of of all my possessions and what could be

Moving on my way
Moving on my way
And all the world seems to move with me

I've been keeping my head just to please you
Holding my breath 'til the light hits my face
Head full of promises
Heart falling short of a love for what will be

Moving on my way (Don't forget why you came)
Moving on my way
And all the world seems to move with me
And all the world seems to move with me

I'm not worth dying for
Over something out of nothing
So throw me overboard
And i'll meet you on the shore

And all the world seems to move with me
And all the world seems to move with me

Best Regards - top

ten finger fist
in a room that's full of silence
in a world that cries to sleep
i say goodnight
as i rest beneath the sirens
and i pray my soul to keep

coz tonight you'll feel everything
tonight you won't sleep

so send my best regards
to those who cry hollow tears tonight
and send your softest words
to those who have to live in years of night

Differences - top

waiting for a reason
watching the seasons change
when will it be alright?
when will it seem less strange?

i see the similar differences
surfacing again
i know i'm reliving instances
i put behind me

loving one direction
loving with nothing returned
living in free fiction
living like i've never been burned

Everything - top

so-long to good old yesterday
it's been real but time will not stand still
so-long to good old apathy
it's been real but now you see that all this is dead

you'll see
its everything..... never be
you'll see
this time
it's you it's me it's everything you'll never be

so-long to all these little games
it's been fun but look at what it cost
sit back and find another way
to live life like it's not only hiding from shame

Face the Night - top

pushing outward and seeping in
no one's falling
it's left within

time keeps on tickin' away
smile when you see today
take one more step away
tomorrow turns into today

and face the night
hold your breath,
take one more step to light

crossing four lines and breaking down
no one's counting
we're gaining ground

Fall off the Earth - top

20 minutes to showtime
a face in perfect pain
his nerves are shot and his eyes closed tight
he leaves his problems for rainy days
no one should have to fight this hard
with struggles in the form of friends
to pick a poison is easier said
when a person will not pretend

he says
why won't they listen?
they're gunna' fall off the earth
and no one will notice but me
one more decision
before they fall off the earth
and no one will notice but me

he only speaks when he means it
with passion bigger than his words
he knows his road is less traveled
and many have fallen before
no one should have to have dreams like this
that darken on rainy days
to pick a poison is easier said
when a person won't walk away

Final Hour - top

the last days approaching,drawing nearer,
searchin' for an answer to save your soul,
confusion now befriends you,
there's no time left to think,
hoping that tomorrow will still be a hero

standing at the judgement seat,
preparing your confession,
you begin to speak but find a loss of words,
running through your mind are thoughts of hopelessness and fear,
His verdict pierces like a sword

you begin to notice there's no place to turn,
no place for you to run to now,
your life was short your life was not well planned,
you should have thought this through before your final hour

no place to run no place to hide,
i wanna be here right by your side,
you've rejected now you're being detested,
but you wanna be right here,
all this time and never fear that this could be you,
this could be you in your final hour

For Days Upon Time - top

for days upon time for days upon time,
we could walk together, breathe together,
for days upon time,
you could always see Me see so clearly

but sometimes you get caught in yourself,
and sometimes you put Me back on the shelf,
and sometimes you get caught in yourself,
and sometimes I get left out of you

child come home, leave yourself,
rest in Me, and leave yourself,
child come home, leave yourself,
rest in Me, and leave yourself

for days upon time, you could always love Me,
you could love Me, for days upon time,
you could trust Me fully, trust in Me only

but sometimes you get caught in yourself,
and sometimes you put Me back on the shelf,
and sometimes you get caught in yourself,
and sometimes I get left out of you

child come home

Goodbye, Gravity - top

does it hurt to be alone?
coz i can't do this on my own
it's getting late
tomorrow will be like the last
built on sand inside a glass
time will tell if it will pass
it's getting late
tomorrow will be like the last
tomorrow will be like the past

why do we run away
hide inside ourselves
always run away
hide inside ourselves

falling faster than i should
would i slow down if i could?
it'd getting late
tomorrow is a second glance
will i ever change my mind
wanting more from my design
it's never late
tomorrow is another chance
tomorrow is my second chance

Hear My Cries - top

hear my cries, and fix my eyes,
into Your Word, it must be heard,
if You flow in me, then You will set me free,
be in my mind, 'cause i've been i've been so blind

in myself i have wandered away,
seek Your lost and guide them Your way

and let my soul live, and i will praise You i will,
let my soul live, and i will praise You again

hear my cries, and make me wise,
i'll see it through, to tell them of You,
if You flow in me, then we will set them free,
be in their minds, 'cause they've been they've been so blind

help me not to wander away,
but instead i'll forget my old ways

and let my soul live, and i will praise You i will,
let my soul live, and i will praise You again

In Hands - top

look at her another way
shes seen too many rainy days
everyone has gone away
but still she stands

burn your flag of mockery
why is it so hard to see
everyone was meant to be
more than me

and its all within her reach
and still she stands
its all within her reach
the world is at her hands

look at him another way
youll never know the price he paid
breathe a breathe and life will fade
and still he stands
put it off another day
it will never fade away
the sun will set another day
but still he stands

itll all within his reach
he world is in his plans
its all within his reach
the world is in his hands

if we can make it through
we will feel it forever
stand up together

Life in the Stars - top

i'm alright with this
choosing to exist
and i will savor every second
i will make it through
just knowing You
and i am willing to cement it

now it's so clear and so near
that i can never turn my back in shame

it doesn't get better than this
falling behind one day at a time
it couldn't get better than this
so why try? now we're out of time

just one sacrifice of turning off the lights
and the world could be ours to hold
soon the world will fade
with everything we've made
because living in the stars grows old

it's so clear and so near
that i can never turn my back

Lift Me Up - top

as days are getting shorter,
and nights won't seem to end,
when every step that i take
is just a wound to mend,
i look over my shoulder,
you've seen what i've become,
how can You still look me in the eyes and call me son?

You lift me up, You dust me off,
You tell me everything will be okay

ashamed i fall to my face,
i'm scared of what You've seen,
when words begin to whisper,
my actions rise and scream,
You've seen but You've forgiven,
i can see the tears i put in Your eyes,
they turn from pain to gladness as i drop my pride

Lost Angeles - top

see for yourself and take a look up close
take a trip down to the southern coast
the roads to rome and the powers that be
all point to the angel by the sea

lost angeles
how do you handle this?
you put the stars in my eyes
you told me dreams never die
but you left me there for dead

an industry of no sympathy
can "make it happen" in hollywood cliche
the end of extortion of epic proportion
should only be a lawsuit away

took a holiday down in l.a.
got an agent and now i'm okay
got over yesterday, but it's so hard to say
wallet's on empty, but that's the price you pay

My Darker Side - top

he less i become
the more you're becoming
my name next to nothing
i'm followed closer in the steps i lead
one in front of the other
carrying me
and burying me

i want you to be
the beacon on my sea
the change in me
i want you to see
my softer side
my darker side

i've learned that i've lost all i've loved
and all for a first love
my life can live and die with me
but i'll never be enough to replace you
to face you

these cold hands are callusing
bring me to reality
take my mind
and these tired eyes
break my pride
my darker side

No One Understands - top

you moved on without me
one day we'll see things the same
feeling sorry i ever felt this way
feeling sorry with no one else to blame

time on my side and a head full of dreams
that no one understands but me
i'm feelin' fine with this head full of dreams
and no one understands but me

i never saw it coming
i expected maturity somehow
feeling sorry i ever said i cared
feeling sorry but i'll let go for now

time on my side and a head full of dreams
that no one understands but me
i'm feelin' fine with this head full of dreams
and no one understands but me

Open Eyes - top

there's nothing more to you,
than earthly flesh and empty bones,
still searchin' for nothing,
I'm face down and all alone

show Me everything,
give Me all you've got,
reveal mysteries,
and mountains will bow at your name

shackles fall to my feet,
a thousand pounds lift from my back,
scales ripped off my weakened eyes,
i run away no looking back

tired of the circles ran,
i'm sorry that i'm just a man,
falling at Your feet again,
i stop myself to let You in

Over and Over - top

I can't see all around
But on familiar ground
I hear a softer sound
Over and over it said,
"Whisper these words for me
Revive dead poetry
And they will surely see,"
Over and over again

Time will see it through
Time will make us new
Time will make us new

I can't take all of this
False prophets dividends
Goodbye to innocence
Over, it's over again
I can't stop all of this
All targets never hit
But I'll know when I miss
Over and over again

Time will see it through
Time will make us new
Time will see it through
Time will make us new

Pages - top

writing a novel,
a hundred thousand pages,
about the things that she's been through,
there's no ending, but she's tired of waiting,
for shattered dreams to come true

is that what i wanted,
is that what i needed,
for her open wounds,
to go on untreated

lookin' in her eyes,
seeing more than blue,
free of all the fears that she's been fighting,
the life she's living now, has got pages left,
maybe she and i can end her writing

is that what i wanted,
is that what i needed,
for her open wounds,
to go on untreated

Paint the Skies - top

close your eyes,
remember nothing that you've seen,
time again,
drowning in hostility,
paint your skies,
and run into that empty scene,
spread your wings
and lock your hands in unity, unity

wipe the sleep from your eyes,
dry the tears you have cried,
breathe the breaths you have sighed,
open doors you deny

close your eyes,
remember how it used to be,
time again,
life was taken selfishly,
no more lies,
turn and face reality,
draw your strength,
to overcome this tragedy, tragedy

wipe the sleep from your eyes,
dry the tears you have cried,
breathe the breaths you have sighed,
open doors you deny

wipe the sleep from your eyes

Perfect - top

the perfect end to a perfect crime,
just another bad mistake,
i see a dream in the distance,
that's not too far away

i want it to be normal,
i want it to be fair,
i want it to be everything,
i want it to be clear,
i want it to be now,
and i want it to be You,
i want it to be perfect,
but i don't know what to do

this new start seems too familiar,
i can't live it all again,
they say rules are better broken,
but broken hearts can't bend

i want it to be normal,
i want it to be fair,
i want it to be everything,
i want it to be clear,
i want it to be now,
and i want it to be You,
i want it to be perfect,
but i don't know what to do

it's not fair

Rain - top

rain like, its been too long
like its always been away
rain like, like a new cloud
bleeding night into grey
bring all or nothing
short of 40 nights and days
or show me a mile away

and rain til you cant remember earth
til my feet cant feel the dirt
and my eyes see a mile away
til my feet can feel the sand
and i close my selfish hands
and pray that you wash it away
wash it away

brake once and i spin twice
gripping my last grain of sand
mixed with one tear, and with two drops
of sweat on which i stand
flashlights like a sunbeams
take me off this soiled land
and show me a mile away

Remain - top

sometimes i follow Your name,
and even beg for more,
too often then i crumble,
down onto the floor,
forgetting where i came from,
can be so immature,
forgetting all that's perfect,
i turn and shut the door

but You still remain
and i still need You,
more than i can ever know,
more than life can even show to me

my vision clears so quickly,
my past is torn away,
new life breathes through my body,
and pumps into my veins

Send Me to the End - top

dim the lights
and let the candles live
you and i
and nothing more to give

i've been stagnant
dwelling all alone
covering the cornerstone

send me to the end
i won't look back again
turn myself to salt among the sand
send me to the end
with open arms and nails in hand
even if they never understand
send me to the end

swallow pride
and push myself aside
break the tide
pray it does it's worst

i've been complacent
satisfied with pavement
founded with no room to grow

send me to the end
i won't look back again
turn myself to salt among the sand
send me to the end
with open arms and nails in hand
even if they never understand
send me to the end

dim the lights
and let the fire burn my eyes
'til i see a face the darker world denies

Soundtrack to Nothing - top

her mother always told her
she sings just like an angel
she swears she never left that song behind
she looks just like the type she
says she doesn't lie to
songs are circling her mind

lies
are another way
to close another day
that she dedicates a song to

cuz everybody's just looking for something
to play inside their heads
and tell them that they're ok
just a soundtrack to nothing
to play inside their heads
and tell them that theyre ok

she always sings the weekends
breathing in the deep end
so she only sees through sunday
she swallows all that she can take
from a song that she cant shake
and a melody that wont stop

silence
and a quiet mind
is all that separates her
from life she left behind

Stay With Me - top

looked at the clouds today
everyone will fall someday
just like the dust will fade
six feet deep in front of me

i wanna run away, seize the day
not a sound or word to say
dreaming never felt this way
nothing short of apathy

speak to me forever
because Your voice is so pleasant
stay with me forever
because Your face is so present

stared in the Son today
everything has turned to gray
let go of all my pain
soon enough i'll feel the rain

i wanna run away, seize the day
not a sound or word to say
dreaming never felt this way
all alone in apathy

The End of Me - top

turn and lock the room
never be found again
a voice like a stranger
and all out of anger
and i know you feel it too

pass away the old
lay to rest my friend
pass away the old

this will be the end
this will be the end of me
i will start again
i will start again with you

this is where it ends
a shadow's all thats left
its always been stronger
its always been longer
and i know you feel it too

This Life - top

i watched the colors fade to gray,
as all my tears got in the way,
my feelings paralyzed me,
but then i learned to walk away

the Son has left these scars
from forty days of wandering,
the little picture on my mirror
is calling me back home,
the folded paper in my pocket is what i can't let go of,
but i was never made
to live this life i can't call my own

the man behind the mask
is sellin' second chances in a pill,
i have to choose between a savior
or a midnight miracle

Tight - top

in You i feel so safe and sure,
in You i feel all that is pure,
in me there's nothing i can give
in me no worthy life can i live

but in Your arms i feel so tight,
please don't leave me day or night,
in Your arms i feel so tight,
everything else is empty

in You i find my hiding place,
where i can always see Your face,
in me there's nothing i can do,
in me there's nothing i can give to You,

but in Your arms i feel so tight,
please don't leave me day or night,
in Your arms i feel so tight,
everything else is empty

everything else is empty
in Your arms i feel so tight

Who Am I - top

sitting all alone
wondering why You came
was it just for me?
look at all Your shame
can you have such love
can you be so pure
i know that i'm not perfect
but i know i'm Your's

who am i and what do you want from me
who am i in the midst of Your majesty
and all i want is all that i don't deserve
who am i?

time and time i've tried
but failure always proves
it's not by my might
only through You
can i have such love
can i be so pure
i know that im not perect but i know i'm Yours

Why Am I Still Here? - top

The wind till reminds
What's behind me catches up
When I find myself residing
In the same place I woke up
Walking gives me wisdom
And standing never finds the words
The deaf man heard

So why am I still here?
Waiting for the anvils and pianos to appear
My confidence and common sense has
Questioned all that's clear
I ignore my best advice
That lightning never strikes me twice
I can't repeat myself again
Why am I still here?

Learning can't define me
Unless I haven't learned
Like suntan beauties
Sit and laugh until they burn
Living gives me freedom
To take and to mistake a love
For better or for worse

Why do I still stand
Trapped inside a man?
