new way home 02:13
lyrics
buy track
try to find a new way home keeps me from being alone I left my heart to roam try to find a new way home she came out of the sky landed in the palm of my eye its not like we'll just give it a try I lay down my life and I'm thinking maybe so I'm thinking way ahead 'cause we're already dead I realize you're right even if its just in your mind I lay down the fight leave it up to the sky try to find a new way home keeps me from being alone I left my heart to roam try to find a new way home

brand new day 05:11
lyrics
buy track
got to begin right where I am entering in streams of the plan I couldn't breathe where I was standing before just like the first time a brand new door it was like walking in darkness when the sun came the darkness ran away now I m running away but I won't get too far eyes open deep its an inward drive into my sleep the dreams that I eat concrete Im gonna arrange a brand new day I remember the day that you gave me my new name you are my friends I have your ears I want to tell you something we both don't understand

a dream I had last night 02:27
lyrics
buy track
you just won't stop you just keep going I can't keep up with you there is a fire thats inside and its burning you pulls you along unaware just to hitch a rid goes in to get the treasure while you wait outside I don't know what it means but it makes me tired Im just thinking of a dream I had last night work work work work real hard till your fingers bleed try try try try real hard until you believe their cooking you real slow I can tell by the glow in your eyes so at the end of the line you don't have to act so surprised walk right in try to be quiet and the lights were low all asleep like the dream like the afterglow be real still find the place where ideas explode starts to sing like a prayer let the river flow I don't know what it means but it makes me tired Im just thinking of a dream I had last night

walk so softly 03:51
lyrics
buy track
wait for you walk so softly lest i open up your eyes the sun has come again we're farther along so I'll drink in all this time I will see I will learn by the movements of your mood like the pulling of the heart to the fire I just had to let it go the day is done we come together as our stories intertwine I hear them laughing like a living sacrifice they are my streams of different lives the moon has come she sings a prayer and we will rest another day call again I will remember I can't forget you after all

johnny walk a mile 03:34
lyrics
buy track
johnny took a walk in the great dark wood johnny wants to free his soul and when his feet begin to stumble on the path he thought about another road walk a mile in my shoe come to find out that theres two streams flowing through the garden I get old you think my heart would harden come to find out if you just sit and wait its all gonna come to you but that don't mean you just sleep all day don't you know you got to keep moving walk a mile in my shoe come to find out that its not true but its such a good story I got time but I'm leaving in the morning johnny took a drink from the moon that night thought she might set him straight when he woke up the very next day he knew which road he'd take walk a mile in my shoe come to find out that theres two streams flowing from the garden I get old you think my heart would harden johnny put his cards on the table of life he knew he had to play his hand opened up his mind like a waterfall opened up the prison gates walk a mile in my shoe come to find out that its not true but its such a good story I got time I'm leaving in the morning

come on 05:10
lyrics
buy track
why don't you just come on with me we can drink the water what you speak is what you see let me take you farther why don't you just come on with me we can see the story what you speak is what you see wake up in the morning why don't you just come on with me we can run around wild and act like we're free I bet you thought it was make believe now I can hear your babies sing I know sometimes you go blind you can't see but theres fire the inside and sometimes you can't hide far enough away I think I might get on with you I'm sure we can't afford it when we do we'll never end sure hard to ignore it it goes fast it won't last can't fight it so relax the movement of right now is calling from the inside out to dance to the music

hypnotized 02:51
lyrics
buy track
I did it anyway even after you said you didn't want me to you didn't have to stay but you did it your own way and it turned out the same didn't notice you'd gone it was too late to fix whats been going on for so long now she's free at least she thinks she's free its just another day sun comes up and the shadows fade and I can see you like the ghost of who you'll be on some sunny day in the blink of an eye maybe you'll laugh maybe you'll cry hypnotized well here we go again born to die and we come back again I might be wrong let them say what they want or they can sing along even after your gone its been a pleasure running for so long but summers gone and Im moving on you'll hear my voice in another song

friend 02:58
lyrics
buy track
into the arms of a friend sometimes we steal sometimes we give she moves slowly away I was a dreamer before sometimes it heals me sometimes just know that I tried when the dust is settled we can take a look inside she comes in just like a storm he was chasing a song and thats just the way the river runs thoughts are like water daughters and sons I think you've been talking to the trees her voice is keeping me awake into the arms of a friend sometimes we steal sometimes we give

a p p l e 04:27
lyrics
buy track
I don't want to reminded I don't really want to know feel like Im surrounded time for me to go these dreams fall far from the tree never really met you until now had to be reminded like a primitive sound its not what you expected it would be its like the whole ocean is inside of a seed these dreams fall far from the tree started out a puppet on a string finally heard the voices at the end of the scene it doesn't really matter what you see its to make you change what you think you believe these dreams fall far from the tree its not like an answer you can see its not like what you're looking for doesn't know where you hide before you go storming out that door better take some rest before you're needing some more these dreams fall far from the tree didn't really do it can't prove a thing what you thought was worth it aint worth a thing these dreams fall far from the tree ended up another once I cut the strings the world is my mother the wind begins to sing these dreams fall far from the tree

gene walks on . . . 03:24
lyrics
buy track
you are unfolding direction you are eternal selection I opened my eyes to you I thought I recognized the tune you said I heard we both had a reason they might not see it but I think we can show them if anyone could make it all come true they might bring their broken things to you and when it finally all is through there are more colors because of you

here we go again 01:59
lyrics
buy track
got to walk down right down through the middle of it say that you hate but I know that you really love it things don't start to change I can see it coming from a mile away all those voices coming through I do not believe the truth they tell me I can always lay you down and call you back tomorrow tomorrow never comes got to let go cause you can't hold on to it got to move on can't keep me down life don't mean a thing if you can't kick your feet up at the end of the day all these cell phones ringing in my head calling I could answer questions till I'm dead and buried here we go again
