- A Mirror Is Harder To Hold
You could stay a while longer
We could stay up and talk about
Last summer
We could go down to the water
Watch the sunset going under
It's not that I'm a stranger
To lonely moments
- Again
Oh Lord, God of our fathers
this day let it be known
That you Lord,
Are God of the present tense
Oh Lord, Father of history
this day let it be known
That you Lord,
- Against the Voices
Start the day against the voices
The ones that tell me that I’m wrong
I hear them now screaming their delusions
I close my eyes and they’re gone
If they ain’t singing, if they’re just talking
Let them keep talking to themselves
- Baptize my mind
Reaching, always reaching
Never reaching solid ground
Seeking always seeking
Never seeking what I've found
Baptize my mind
Baptize my eyes
- Before Our Time
January, February, March
The days are marching forward
April, May, June and July
They fly like a hummingbird
August, September, October
The year is almost over
November, December arrive
- Behind Your Eyes
If you let your feelings go, dear
It's scary what you'll find
I find I'm on your street, dear
And you're always on my mind
And no one need to know
That you let me in tonight
That you let me see the world
Behind your eyes
- Broken From The Start
Life is a gift like fresh cut roses
Cut from the branch and brought inside
It’s a slow contradiction that’s beauty in a vase
When the cords are cut that’s when we start to die
Lately death and life get so confusing
I can’t tell the difference here tonight
Lately every breath feels like I’m kissing death
- Come Home
The burning inside
Starts to let go
Turns into smoke
Nobody shows it
The spark in your eye
Carries the hope
That died long ago
Everyone knows it
- Equally Skilled
How miserable I am
I feel like a fruitpicker who arrived here
after the harvest
There's nothing here at all
There's nothin at all here that could placate my hunger
The godly people are all gone
There's not one honest soul left alive here on this planet
We're all murders and theives
- Ghost Machine
All hail the siren of our time
I’m possessed when she passes by
She drains the best years of my life
She makes promises
She could never keep
Ain’t it a ghost machine
Making a ghost out of me
- Good For Me
Sometimes I wonder what I put in my soul
I wonder if it’s good for me
Sometimes I wonder if it’s taking its toll
I wonder if it’s good for me
Sometimes I wonder if it’s taking hold
I wonder if it’s good for me
Sometimes I wonder if I”m losing control
Losing control
- House Of God, Forever
God is my shepherd
I won't be wanting
I won't be wanting
He makes me rest
In fields of green
With quite streams
Even though I walk
Through the valley
- I Am Still Running
You remember me
before I learned to run
At the kissing tree
before I learned my guns
We were 17
17 years young
I am still running
I am still running
- In Love
In love, in love, in life, in love
In you, in love, in death, my love
in time, in love, in place, in love
In form, in love, in death, my love
My God, my love, my life, my love
Is yours, my love, my bride, my love
This cross, my love, is mine, my love
To bear, my love, to die, my love
- In My Arms
Here, my dear
This is where
We'll shake the nightmare free
I dream to hold you in my arms
I dream to hold you in my arms
To hold you in my arms
Wide awake in my arms
- Instead Of A Show
I hate all your show and pretense
The hypocrisy of your praise
The hypocrisy of your festivals
I hate all your show
Away with your noisy worship
Away with your noisy hymns
I stomp on my ears when you're singing 'em
I hate all your show
- Learning How To Die
I'm gonna miss you
I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
She said, "I love you"
I'm gonna miss hearing your songs
And I said, "Please"
Don't talk about the end
Don't talk about how every living thing goes away
- Lord, Save Me from Myself
My mind is dull and faded
From these years of buy and sell
My eyes have seen the glory
Of this hollow modern shell
And sex is a grand production
But I'm bored with that as well
Ah, ah, Lord save me from myself
- Love Isn't Made
An hour ago
I felt so low
I almost drowned
Driving around this
messed up town
It's pretty, it's only
- My Coffin
Dear blue sky
Are you afraid to die?
Do you fear you'll never see the morning?
And the twilight comes
And you lose your sun
Does it come to you without a warning?
When the brain waves stop
- Never Alone
We watched the western sky
Falling like a landslide
We saw the half-light disappear
I know how it hurts inside
To watch the dead leaves dry
On your own year after year
But i would never leave you
- Resurrect Me
It takes a long time to kill a man
Fifty-five years at least
Until he breaks down
Starts to look underground
To go off, and get him some peace
I want to die a lot quicker then that
If that’s my only way out
- Revenge
I'm the failure
I'm everyone's fool
And I'm losing my cool at the end
I'm the loser
My number's come up
I've been hung up with thoughts of
Revenge,
- She Said
Looking for reasons
To believe instead of doubt
A way in instead of out
There's got to be a reason
Looking for answers for the horror and pain
When they both start to feel the same
There's got to be a reason
- Somebody's Baby
She yells, "if you were homeless
Sure as hell you'd be drunk
Or high or trying to get there
Or begging for junk
When people dont want you
They just throw you money for beer."
Her name was November
- Southbound Train
Oh, I guess they'll say I've grown
I know more than I wanted to know
I've said more than I wanted to say
I'm heading home
Yeah, but I'm not so sure
That home is a place
You can still get to by train
- The Cure For Pain
I'm not sure why it always flows downhill
Why broken cisterns never could stay filled
I've spent ten years singing gravity away
But the water keeps on falling from the sky
And here tonight while the stars are blacking out
With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt
I've spent ten years trying to sing these doubts away
- The Moon Is A Magnet
The moon is a magnet
Everyone's at it
Everyone's had it
Love is a sadness
Love is a madness
We are the addicts
- Unbroken
Out on the margins of town
I've been stuck hanging round
These amateur clowns
Wondering where were you
The only song we knew
Was our amateur blues
If you believed why'd you leave me
If you believed why'd you leave me
- White As Snow
Have mercy on me, oh God
According to Your unfailing love
According to Your great compassion
Blot out my transgressions
Would you create in me a clean heart, oh God
Restore in me the joy of Your salvation
- Your Love Is Strong
Heavenly Father, you always amaze me
Let your kingdom come in my world and in my life
You give me the food I need to live through the day
And forgive me as I forgive the people that wronged me
Lead me far from temptation
Deliver me from the evil one
I look out the window the birds are composing
