- Track Name: Long Way Round
-
you know me well, you know your way around
my defenses, where to take a cheap shot
you're my medicine, and you're my illness
i'm pouring in, it keeps on spilling out
there is a comfort, thinking all is lost
there won't be a savior coming for us
but i won't swallow it
there's no real fight, there can be no winner
what i call mine, i loosen my grip on it
there are so many things that no one really sees
a great and tossing sea held in by your skin
slow to anger, because i'm slow to understand
thank god, thank god i kept my mouth shut
we can change it still, any minute that we like
and we'll get there, we're just taking the long way round
there is a comfort, thinking all is lost
there won't be a savior coming for us
but i won't swallow it - Track Name: I Can't Hear You
-
we are not those things that we used to dream
we have dropped those big thoughts and ideas
do the best with what we're handed
don't take pride as though we planned it
i don't want for more than i can hold
i am formless looking for a mold
laying down my heavy burdens
open windows and pull back the curtains
when i can't hear you
how can i sing along?
i'll sing alone
it should have been a simple plan
you don't get off the ship until you reach the land
but love spent was never wasted
it'll come back when you least expect it
my prayers dissolve into the wind
though i speak like someone's listening
but an empty house is full of sound
and voices speak when no one is around
when i can't hear you
how can i sing along?
i'll sing alone - Track Name: Lie Down
-
lie down with me marie, lie down with me
lie down with me and wait to fall asleep
let your blanket be tall grass
let your pillow be my chest
lie down with me marie, lie down with me
the sun is high above us in the sky
and no one else will see but his hot eye
so let your skin drink it in
the other sound is a summer wind
lie down with me marie, lie down with me
the holy ones are quick to say we're wrong
they only see a world beyond this one
but the bird's are singing out his praise
and the trees are lifting up their gaze
lie down with me marie, lie down with me - Track Name: Casting Away
-
these demons never seem to stray very far
they hide in the corner and they catch me off guard
it's late and it's hard to be left alone, i know
you can't think and why should you, so you let yourself go
there's an overstocked cupboard of useless things
its cluttered confused and they're all chattering
it's hard to get ahold of yourself
this late in the game
but someday i'll do good
i'll put my hand to the plow
and choose the thing i know i should
an amateur anatomist i think i'd be called
i have creatures in jars and they're hanging from the wall
i can't redeem what i've done, it's already too late
it's not about that but the casting away
i feel it under my fingers and i breathe it in the air
and i can't accept that you were never really here
it's hard to get ahold of yourself
this late in the game
but someday i'll do good
i'll put my hand to the plow
and choose the thing i know i should
come, come, come
come, come come,
i am undone
what were you missing
while you were not listening?
i am undone
disconnect
i'm higher bent
i am undone
it's hard to get ahold of yourself
this late in the game
but someday i'll do good
i'll put my hand to the plow
and choose the thing i know i should - Track Name: Find A Way
-
there's a wolf waiting at every door
you've got find a way to to ignore him
so tell me something, softly, sweetly, anything
my ears are open, i can feel you close in
i don't know where the tide goes when it flows out
how you fill up a cup more than full
i don't know words, i have no words that can tell
how a body understands what the brain can't touch
it doesn't have a name
doesn't have face
the path to greatness, i don't think i've found it yet
and at best, i am sure i only stumble down it
so i'm filling my mind with the thoughts of another time
and i'm missing things i have yet to see
i don't know where the tide goes when it flows out
how you fill up a cup more than full
i don't know words, i have no words that can tell
how a body understands what the brain can't touch
i'm not excited in the ways i was before
and all the passions are beginning to grow up
well, you've taken everything that was nothing at all
and in the empty space a something is growing now
it doesn't have a name
doesn't have face - Track Name: Rest On You
-
cold and kind, flowing through my mind
i don't know where it comes from
don't know where it's heading
but lay me down along its banks
i haven't the time to and haven't the fire
and i just want to rest on you
the more and more you take
the richer i am made
and i can see a day
i won't need any other
something keeps getting in my way
and there's so many whisperings
about how i should be living
and i'm so tired of the fight
i can't keep my eyes open
can't see where i'm going
and i just want to rest on you
the more and more you take
the richer i am made
and i can see a day
i won't need any other - Track Name: Take Care
-
take care of your brother
pull him out of his prison
strike that demon whispering in his ear
swing low and take for yourself
the lowest place at the table
there's nothing lost and everything to gain
he's just lost inside a maze
a child who doesn't know his place
wipe the dirt from off his face
help him learn to say his name
it's all adding up
and nothing done will be forgot
where and when it matters the most
look up and pay attention
listen again to what's been said
let the wind blow through and take you where it will
but i won't tell you what to do
it's a door that you alone can choose
a seed must die before it will live
and you cannot get unless you will give
