The Future

Is the future open

Is the future seen

You’d have to pray forever and if you don’t believe

They’ll come down on you

From the longest fall

When they’ve all been vanquished and they’ve all been tried

Like it’s some great penalty, but its just there pride

And they got no follow through

They hold the weakest stance

Ya well they’ll come to steal and divide

all that’s good

You say you thirst for vengeance and you crave for fire

On the roofs of innocence

You watch them rage and writhe

And it don’t bother you

You feel so brave

Your standing in the water

You think that you’ve been saved

With your blind ignorance

In comes a crushing wave

Now see what drown men do, in your watery grave

Well they’ll come to steal and divide

All that’s good

Ya they’ll come to steal and divide

All that’s good

Ya they’ll come to steel and divide

Ya they come to steel and divide

All that’s good

Survivor

Well you just think that I’m some great survivor

And you just build upon the lies that carry you

Well I don’t even talk that way see I wanted you to stay and show that the worlds a better place

And as we crawl to find our way

We even take the shape of something else

You think that I’m just

Some great survivor

You think that I’m just

Some great survivor

I’m afraid that the weight of the world is catching up with you

I’m afraid to admit that it’s catching up to me too

Well you just think that I’m some great survivor

And you just feed upon fear you created

Some people ought to see

Some people ought to hear

Some people ought to see

Some people ought to hear

Well if its gonna be that way then the crowds that call your name can cast me out.

You think that I’m just some great survivor

I’m afraid that the weight of the world is catching up to you

I’m afraid to admit that it’s catching up to me too

Does the weight continue to grow until it finally buries you?

You think that I’m just some great survivor

Face Down in The Moment

It careened and crashed while the other waved

And you waited in the sun so long that when you only wanted shade

Let the old men laugh let the old men say

That I’ve never done nothing that wasn’t out of love baby

Now the weight that you carry seems such a heavy load while you’re

Face down in the moment waiting to let go

Remember standing in the light

Remember crawling all the way

You paraded in the nighttime for a clean get away

You were standing in the water but only up to your knees

But you know a strong current could always sweep you off your feet

You were waiting for the right time

But can it take so long while you’re

Face down in the moment waiting to let go

You were flowing blind

When they stole your name

You were planning a way out

When you lost your way

Bent to a hunch now

Like a broke down show

Face down in the moment just a waiting to let go

Face down in the moment waiting to let go

Keep waiting

You keep waiting on the night

You keep waiting on your pain

Every moment that you wait now is a moment slipped away

I think you’re gonna have to come out and face all the fear you can’t explain

All your life you’ve been face done and now it’s time for you to see

SEE IT

Face down in the moment waiting to let go

Something Ain’t Right

Gotta dig a lot of holes to get into something deep

Gotta sing a lot of soul to know how to feel it

You still feel alone

Well at least it’s your own

And I hope that you know

That I’m just calling out singing

Part of me that loves the life

Part of me that loves the ride

Each time I’m alone I just try to calm myself down

Part of me that knows that something ain’t right

Part of me that knows I can’t even see it

Part of me feels I’ve arrived

But sometimes it don’t align

Each time it begins to rhyme

I just feel so surprised that I talk to myself sometimes at night

When I can’t sleep

Let my mind wander

It’s keeps wandering back to me

Part of me that loves the life

Part of me that loves the ride

These scenes will play out in time

It’s tangled up in all the lines that you wrote for yourself baby

Gotta dig a lot of holes to get into something deep

Some of the folks you know they can’t even see it

Part of me that loves the life

Part of me that loves the ride

These scenes will play out in time

It’s tangled up in all the lines that you wrote for yourself babe

It’s like throwing notes down a well babe and still being so surprised

Part of me that knows that something ain’t right

Love Me Till I’m Gone

Here in the nighttime as it calls

Deepens the skyline until the dawn

It’s like heaven sings in the wind

We watch the sunrise upon your skin

Well I don’t think I’m the better man

And it’s in these hours that we fade

Will you hold me tight when you’re close and then?

Will you love me when I’m worn out and I start to cave?

These kind of moments come in waves you know

Some take your breath and fill your days

It’s a powerful love you want to know

Ah as we walk hand and hand

I’m just here to say that ya

We want back time that we never have

Hours just turn into days

To love me now like you loved me then

And will you love me even when you know that I’m wrong

We want back time that we never have

And the hours just turn into days

To love me now as you love me then

Can you promise that it never fades?

If I run out of things to say

I’m lost and I can’t find my way

But I still keep calling your name

If you love me, love me, love me until I’m gone

Baby I Got Your Number

Come in late at night when I’m alone

You want what’s right but you tell me all the time that I only seem to do it wrong

Baby I’ve got your number

I’ll call you when I get home

Now I’ve got your number baby

I’ll never leave you alone

He can’t jump a hurdle and I can’t run

He came by in the middle of the night to tell me that I was wrong

Baby I’ve got your number

I’ll call you when I get home

Now I’ve got your number baby

I’ll never leave you alone

Maybe when things are right and I feel strong

I’ll move on to try the things that I find only realizing that I’m wrong

Baby I’ve got your number

I’ll call you when I get home

Now I’ve got your number baby

I’ll never leave you alone

Now I’ve got your number baby

I’ll never leave you alone

Now I’ve got your number baby

I’ll never leave you alone

What If I

What if I just can’t discover

What if I’m just taking too long

Or I’m wrong, my vision is cluttered

I’m stumbling on

What if I just quit tomorrow

What if I just tuck and run

If there ain’t no line to follow

Well how will you know

What if I, Cant wait any longer

But I’m scared of letting it show

And of all this piled together

The least is the most

Maybe I’m all in and doubt it

Maybe the nights are sharp and cold

Maybe it’s harder to see when you cannot believe

When only half the cards are shown

Maybe as time goes on together

We’ll learn how to grow

What if I can’t take the heartache

What if I don’t want to know

What if all I found was darkness leading to none

Well come on, just leave the light on

Give me air and clear the room

Cause if I don’t find an answer

I fear I’ll fold

What if I, Cant wait any longer

And I’m scared of letting it show

And of all these piled together

The least is the most

Maybe I’m all in and doubt it

Maybe the nights are sharp and cold

Maybe its harder to see what you cannot believe

When only half the cards are shown

Maybe as time goes on together we’ll learn how to grow

Maybe I’m all in and doubt it

Maybe I’ll go on without it

Maybe I’m all in and doubt it

Maybe I’ll go on without it

Maybe I’m all in and doubt it

Maybe I’ll go on without it

Maybe I’m all in and doubt it

I’m On Your Side

Did you realize or you can’t remember

Well adjust your eyes and let em clear

But if you ain’t alright

Well just remember

I’m on your side

Through thick and thin and any line

We’ll cross divides and we will stand in hope and light

But if you ain’t all right just remember

I’m on your side

Came into the light and it felt like thunder

But in your eyes it just appears

You’re dug in tight

In your opinion there’s just two sides

It won’t align in a capsized culture

Leaned in the right and then it veered

And in its time, is it wonder or is it fear

I’m on your side

Through thick and thin and any line

We’ll cross divides and we will stand in hope and light

But if you ain’t all right just remember

I’m on your side

Now there’s a chance to see if we just open up our eyes

And if you can’t believe come on please just try

But if you ain’t all right just remember

I’m on your side

But if you ain’t all right just remember

I’m on your side

So Put Out

Even now you let me down

You’re still so put out

Don’t talk too much to me maybe I don’t even want to know

You’re load and run your mouth

You aim to turn around I know it ain’t that way but anyway

You set a wildfire you think its cut its path, but the wind just turns and laughs at you

You held me when I had nothing to say well some things are lost on truth

Even now you let me down

You’re still so put out

Don’t talk too much to me maybe I don’t even want to know

You held the seeds that you think would turn to grass, but the days of growth have passed for you

We had all eyes on and man I get so put out hearing the lies you do

Even now you let me down

You’re still so put out

Don’t talk too much to me maybe I don’t even want to know

Even now you let me down

You’re still so put out

Don’t talk too much to me maybe I don’t even want to know

Oh, I

I’ve got the rhythm and I can feel

And I feel let come in waves

Until the morning we can’t stand still

I’ve gone from empty to over filled

And in the morning when you can not wake

Cover your eyes when you’re afraid

It’s a part of every song you sang

Tell me I‘ve been

Oh, I

I’ve got the feeling that I can heal

It’s in the willingness to be still

And I feel it come in waves

It’s a feeling that has to change

I can’t just stand and wait

Heaven I’ve been wrong

What more can one face

Just to stumble on

Tell me I’ve been

War in me, tearing me

War in me, it’s tearing me

War in me, tearing me down

War in me, tearing me
