“7 Minutes till Dawn”
Like a long lost brother
You came down from heaven
Reading me like I was wrote
Ten Million years ago
Well I was waiting, waiting
For this ball
To unravel
Like a house built of cards
I was sure to crumble
In the presence of love
Much more humble, than my own
Well I was waiting, waiting
For this ball
To unravel
Am I mine or am I just these footsteps
In front of me
Cause my eyes find it hard to see
We all fall
We all fall someday
We all fall
We all fall some day
I see winter waving goodbye
I see summer bring the good times
Love where you are
Love where you are
I was floating on
I was drifting on
3 clouds from 9
7 minutes till dawn
I am still feelin fine
“Do (World so Crazy)”
Sippin on something
It was making me dream
Leaning up against a tree
Lord, I was thinking
Where could you be?
Inside all this world so crazy
I can run but there is nowhere to hide
Inside the darkness
Comes this burning light
Behind the door
But I still hear a voice inside
Son wake up, wake up
It’s Time
Stones and bones won’t break this wall
If you get on the inside you can change it all
And if you walk the same way you talk well
This world will turn itself inside out for you
I can run but there is nowhere to hide
Inside the darkness
Comes this burning light
Behind the door
But I still hear a voice inside
Son wake up, wake up
Its Time
Last thing to note
You are not what
Other people think of you
But you are
All the things that you believe in
You are the people you love
I don’t know
But all these lines divide
Troubles they, they hide me behind
Words so ugly were never meant for you
Words only waste only waste my time
“Silly Me”
Like a Shepard in the mountain
I climb each and every day
I wake up to the
Sunrise put on my
Boots and climb away
Oh, no it’s far to deep inside
Oh, no it’s to much work cant you see
Oh, no I’ll just ignore you one last time
This last time
Silly me
Through the storm I’ll
Hold you tightly
In my arms I’ll rock you right
Then Like a baby
You look up at me
And I’ll tell you everything will be all right
Oh, no I was gone to long
Oh, no we’ve all lost out way from home
Oh,no I’ll just ignore you one last time
This last time
Silly Me
The dream is over the morning has come now
Just lay your weary head down, down, down
Love is not gone
Love is not gone
Love is not gone
Oh, no I was gone to long
Oh, no we’ve all lost out way from home
Oh,no I’ll just ignore you one last time
This last time
Always silly me
“Desperately Seeking”
It’s only about the little things that we do
It’s not about the far off oceans we may never swim through
And it’s not about the money we won’t make, No
It’s only about the good love that we made
Not in the bedroom, but everywhere and everyday
Cause my heart aches for people who don’t know what it feels like
To look up at that sky
There’s much more to this life
Soon will be old and grey, sittin on bench
Watching those stars circulate
With thoughts strung around my head
It’s not about the daily mistakes that we’ve made
It’s only about the sweet love that we make
Not in the bedroom, but everywhere and everyday
Cause my heart aches for people who don’t know what it feels like
To look up at that sky
There’s much more to this life
Soon will be old and grey sittin on bench
Watching those stars circulate
With thoughts strung round my head
Why don’t we say what we mean?
When were stuck upon the rocks of the day
Cause all that we need
And who we should be
Is locked inside us all
Locked inside
I’m going to spend the rest of my life man trying to find
I’m so desperately seeking just a little taste of your life
I’m so desperately seeking just a little taste the good light
If I had it my way
Oh’ If I had it my way
You know
You know
I would spin the world around for you
If I had it my way
Oh’ If I had it my way
You know
You know
I would carry this world
On my back for you
“Hollowood”
Just like hollow wood
This world is crumbling
It’s all this disbelief
That’s got us on our knees
And then you say to me
That you still don’t believe
Look through the bedroom door
Where that baby where she sleeps
We better hope
We better pray that we change
Before it’s too late
I don’t know
If I can Change
I don’t know
If I can Change
I stumble and I fall again
Just like hollow wood
This world is crumbling
It’s all this disbelief
That’s got us on our knees
And then you say to me
That you still don’t belive
Look through the bedroom door
Where that baby where she sleeps
Cause all you really do
Is rape and pillage young minds
Then you go on to stroke your own life
We better hope
We better pray that we change
Before it’s too late
I don’t know
If I can Change
I don’t know
If I can Change
“Pineapple”
I don’t know if pineapples
Grow on trees but if they do
I want to grow one with you
Will watch the trees and leaves change
With the passing of age
Just like those roots I’ll seek life
Climbing deeper inside of you
Love just so you know
Ill be just like that tree
Here until all my leaves fall down
Pineapples
Pineapples
Love we’ll share Pineapples
The fruit that tree bears
Will fall to the floor
And Make new life
I just can’t wait to grow old
And form new wrinkles with you
Love just so you know
Ill be just like that tree
Here until all my leaves fall down
Pineapples
Pineapples
Love we’ll share Pineapples
“Stink Bug”
When you’re lying in bed
And the thoughts come pouring down now
Just know I am praying for you
My soul is racing towards you
So won’t you follow me?
Start off by fallen asleep
You know I’ll find you in your dreams
Little stink bug you’re so stinky
But you don’t worry
You’re much smarter than me
Little stink bug you look like a leaf
But you don’t worry your much smarter than we
Well can you help make it back down to earth?
I need to make it back down to earth
Well then we awake to find
This war going on all sides
And we beg for peace throughout the land
But find it hard to shake our own neighbor’s hands
Little stink bug you’re so stinky
But you don’t worry
You’re much smarter than me
Little stink bug you look like a leaf
But you don’t worry your much smarter than we
Well can you help make it back down to earth?
I need to make it back down to earth
So let’s just stop with all the talking
And let’s get on with all the walking
“Middle Ground (Time like Water)”
Tell me why
We can’t see
Without crumbling
To the floor
My eyes they adore only you
Falling back into the routine
Was it meant to be this way?
I look to find a better view of
Everything and everyone I know
I’ll find a middle ground and call it my home away from home
Cause we’re all looking for reasons to go on
But don’t look to the sky just look inside your own life
It’s were it all lies
I know soon these moments will be gone and
Time like water will fill my glass and
Someday I’ll find a way to stay here with you
Present, awake, and alive
So come one come all it’s time to play
All the hatred and all the pain
It shapes and it forms this old world
And tugs at the strings of all our souls
“In A World So Big”
Quietly dreaming of a life I do not know yet
My hands in front of me reaching out for a shady tree
Do you have to do to learn?
Or are there ways around
The noise and walls that surround us
Are we just cracks on the surface?
This light trying to shine through us
Toiling are lives away over just a simple
Twist of
Fate was there for us to take
With never knowing
So when you feel like a fleeting star
Just know your light burns on long after you’re gone
Like a wake on a lake we go on and on and on
With never knowing
Just who we could be if we didn’t take this life
So seriously
In a world so big and we’re so small
It’s hard to think we could find our troubles at all
But we do and we make a home for them
With never knowing
“Stranger Than Me”
All mixed up inside of my thoughts
Clocks, your love and the tide break me
I know what I was told
But, I was healed by the scares on your soul
Creatures as we are we judge
Passing like how the wind blows
Like ghost we only see the small parts
Of the pie
You’re stranger than me
With each passing day
These worries grow and grow
Like rolling snow
Love won’t you let us lay this weight down
Love won’t you let us sleep tonight
Creatures as we are we judge
Passing like how the wind blows
Like ghost we only see the small parts
Of the pie
You’re stranger than me
Love know you know
You’re stranger than me
“3 Little Songs”
part1
I’m just trying to row my boat
Never meant to make any wakes or waves
But here I stand caught up in this quake
The whole damn worlds caught up in this
Shake me down spin me around
Won’t you let me out of this race?
Sit right back cause we’re gonna figure this one through
The only reason were sad is cause we know what we don’t have
And it might just take the rest of our lives
But the only thing I have really is time
So as you go know
I want you to know right now
You’re never alone
I’ll be that glow right over your shoulder
Many years after I’m gone
Part2
Wonderless blunder is what I’m seeking to find
I don’t need any walls to hold me in
I hate to rhyme but
When I’m feeling
The thoughts keep on reeling on and on
I am the damn
I am the cause for this river to cease flowing
I’m always waiting
I am always anxious unless
You’re by my side
Where would I be with out your love maybe
Caught up like a fishnet in the ocean or sea
part3
You’re not so far away from me
And were not as different as you might think
Don’t want to throw it all away
Don’t want to throw it all away
We’ve all got a reason to live
We’ve all got a reason to die
But let’s just throw down our arms tonight
Left-right beginning to the end
We’re not just what we read and see, no
All the seeds we’re planted much more deeply
Don’t want to throw it all away
Don’t want to throw it all away
We’ve all got a reason to live
We’ve all got a reason to die
But let’s just throw down our arms tonight
“All Those Nights”
Let’s find a nice spot
Underneath a tree
You can share all your thoughts
And I’ll take them home with me
Then later on when I’m feeling so low
I’ll open up my head and
Life goes on again
Remembering those nights
Waiting up for the sunrise
All those bottles of wine
And the red moon hanging from the sky
All those nights
From day to day
It’s getting harder and harder
To close the pages on
All the things we’ve done
And all the places that we’ve gone
Time has my heart swelling at the seems
Remembering those nights
Waiting up for the sunrise
All those bottles of wine
And the red moon hanging from the sky
All those nights
Good love is all seasons not a day
“Without Words (Blue Dolphin)”
Well I’ve got this
Funny shaped hole
Inside my heart
I’ve been fillin up with
Silly toys and
Silly dreams and
Words without meaning
Don’t want to think
Don’t want to dream
Just want to be here alone
Ruminating on these thoughts
Of life, love and mystery
Well know I’ve this
Blue dolphin swimming
Through my veins
Oh man it feels so good
Just to be a part of the world again
To see those leaves
To be one with the sea
Just another wandering stone
So far from home
But, always so damn close
To the door
Don’t want to think
Don’t want to dream
Just want to be here alone
Ruminating on these thoughts
Of life, love and mystery
It’s getting the best of me
“Forever Always For Better”
All the leaves are falling from the trees
And as you leave the tears are falling from our eyes but
Don’t let your well run dry
As the road comes to a screeching halt
Just know the world was meant for you and
Everything you do goes into the world
Forever always for better
So lets just close our eyes and
Let thought take us away
We can’t change the past but
We can let the past change us
Forever always for better
Now eyes closed
And we lift up
Happy now with our minds up
Coming back down to this awkward place
Body shifts but our minds line up
Forever always for better
We all will find our way back home
It’s not always the one that sheltered us from
The Rain and the snow
Good times are hard to find
But when you’re around everything just seems to
Come together, Come together now
“Loose Change”
I look for hope in you
To find hope in me
I get these flashes of eternity
All these dreams must mean something
Anyways
Anyways
Funny that you think
After all these years
I’d still be blind to see
The commotion
Of the ocean
Rumbling inside of your heart swells
Inside of your mind dwelling upon
Things that cannot be changed
Your thoughts running like loose change
From the bottom of your soul
Anyways
Anyways
Now it’s time
To show me all your wounds
Show me you need to breathe
Don’t you know we all bleed?
Its these small moments
They make me realize
We are all good on the inside
Maybe Maybe
Just a little frightened of the world outside
Anyways, she said,” I’m gone,gone,gone”
“Paper Person”
Calling on my angles tonight
Can’t you hear me?
Don’t you see me?
Struggling inside
When you go flying overhead
Won’t you take me whispering on your winds?
Cause I’m just a paper person getting folded by my thoughts again
But
We just don’t die
Our bones fade away
Are soul goes racing
Catching up with the marching
It’s an eternal parade
Standing on the corner
Just hoping to find
Someone who feels like I do
But it’s so hard
When you’re caught up in the moment
To see how another person
How they feel
Oh lord I’ve been praying
Oh God I’ve been praying
Wont you take be back home
Or wont you come back home with me
But
We just don’t die
Our bones fade away
Are soul goes racing
Catching up with the marching
It’s an eternal parade
Like a fresh breath of air
Like a fresh breath of air
I hope your everywhere to me
“It’s So Simple”
intro
When my body falls
I’ll be risen up above it all
Now I can see
The fading distance between He and me
And everything, everything that got in the way
Will slowly fade into eternity
Song
There comes a time in our lives
When we must decide
Between what is wrong and what is right
But all these situations they lie
And the space is thin between the lines
It’s so simple
But it’s hard to be kind
I’m gonna spend the rest
Of my life just trying to realize
Just what it means, what it all means
What is next where does my future lie
What about my friends what about my life
Mistakes will come and mistakes will go
But in the end nobody knows
What it’s like to walk in your shoes
What it’s like to think of all the thoughts that make up you
It’s so simple
But it’s hard to be kind
I’m gonna spend the rest
Of my life just trying to realize
At the end of the day
It doesn’t matter what the people say
It’s what you give that
Nobody can take
