Big Sound
03:51
|
|||
|
Another long last look from the back of the ambulance
And a wave goodbye to the quiet Life
Now everyday it’s the same sound like a chorus me
A book of hymns with a single page
Singing
No there’s no coming back from this one
I know that I'm never coming back from this one
I can't walk away
Another long last look while the world falls away from me
but I’m not waking up from the dream
I’ve been baptized in the desert with the blood of my friends
I can hear it calling me
And I know
There’s no coming back from this one
I know that I'm never coming back from this one
No now I’ll never be the same after this one,
The person that I was is gone
And I’m never coming back from this one
I can’t walk away
You left a Big Sound moving through my spirit
I looked down through the leaves of my Sycamore Tree
Like I was watching a myth hit reality
the pieces of a past life lost in the wind
Now I can feel it work it’s way into all that I see
A future painted by grief
A past that reads like a fictional history
My sorry echos in between
Could you hear it?
Like I hear that sound
No there’s no coming back from this one
I know there's no coming back from this one
No there’s no coming back from this one
I know there's no coming back from this one
I can't walk away

Ordinary Pain
03:51
|
|||
|
From crash to crash when I thought I was leaving
But it’s hard when every day keeps on repeating
Stuck in a still frame memory dancing with the desert heat
Turning time into a game of guessing all the helpful things I think you’d say
Days, weeks, months pass and I don’t move
Back and forth but never through
“It's an ordinary pain it’ll all be alright soon”
It’s nothing new
Sometimes things just go
Through the air and upside down
Find no relief back on the ground
Out of control can’t turn around
And there's no hope to be found
Hard to relate when time won't do the healing
And even harder when you can’t name what you’re feeling
Pleading like a prophet in the street with ghosts that only I can see
Burning through the desert days
throwing punches to keep everyone away
Months turn into years, I haven’t moved
Still back and forth but never through
It’s only ordinary pain until it’s happening to you
Then everyday it’s new
And everyday it's
Sun up through sun down
Through the air and upside down
Find no relief back on the ground
Lost all control, can’t turn around
And I’d give everything that I have for a few minutes back

Lost My Voice
03:01
|
|||
|
Choking on my speech
Still waking up with the disbelief
So pay a visit to the summer day
And play it on repeat
The holy tongues speaking over mine
Hanging on like hell for the oil and wine
Digging through with bloody hands
Trying to find my lines
"It's not your fault"
Yeah I know, it's not my fault
"It's not your fault"
Yeah I know, I know, I know
I know it shouldn't feel this way
Always say it like your proving the point
So find the line carve it out of time
I'll send you signals from the other side of it
Put a pen up to the empty page
Start feeling my whole body shake
Because when I lost you
I lost my voice, I lost my way
I lost my way
The joy and grief
covered up by the guilt in between
So when it all comes out
It's how come him and why not me?

The Things I Never Said
04:51
|
|||
|
I'm lost on old familiar streets
A worn out patchwork memory
A late night driving on the five
Just like you used to
I'm not at ease and your old home isn't far
Look for diversions in the dark
I'm counting down on highway signs
Just like you used to
So I navigate around what I'm too scared to think
But when it's quiet
That's when i feel it
And when it's quiet
I start to lose control
Cast me out and bind the voices in my head
the old song let its demon loose in me again
And now I'm hiding out and running from
Shadows of the things I never said
Out of the dark my lesson learned a little late
Make blood oaths with the interstate
Keep moving; keep my guilt away
Just like we used to
So I navigate around what I'm too scared to feel
By the time I get home
I don't feel anything at all
And when I'm not home
I don't get homesick anymore
Cast me out and bind the voices in my head
the old song let its demon loose in me again
And now I'm hiding out and running from
Shadows of the things I never said

Death is Close
02:56
|
|||
|
Death is close everywhere I go
Hiding in my shadow
Feel its hands around my throat
And it won't leave me alone
Death is close, breathing down my back
Keep a steady lookout
Driving on the overpass
Because when it takes it doesn't ask
And when it takes it won't give back
Death is close, like a brother by my side
Bear the same reflection
See it in my wild eyes
And he'll stay with me for my whole life
Found the sting buried in my side

Silent Ceremony
03:52
|
|||
|
Strike the sound and flood the air with cries and shouts
Light a Seance
Get the ceremony started
Raise the song, I sing along to draw you out
Wrap my arms around your absence
Shake the shame loose from my conscience
Come Home
Keep close to me
Come Home
Breathe into Everything
Come Home
My silent ceremony carries on and on and on
Come and speak there’s so much left of you to see
Draw the curtains
Read the ripples on the water
Don’t leave me be haunt me like a peaceful spring
Light the sky up
Come and lead me through the darkness
Come Home
Keep close to me
Come Home
Breathe into Everything
Come Home
My silent ceremony carries on and on and on
There’s no ancient rite
No mystic Sign
No magic cure to wash the hurt
How Long will I wear the wound?
How long will I wait in gloom?
How long till my spirit moves?
Will I see you soon?

Lazarus
04:34
|
|||
|
Wandered deserts striking stones
Sweat our blood in the olive groves
Now two whole years with no reply,
Should we give sacrifice a try?
Still don’t know where I went wrong
Our pale horses riding all day long
And i can't tell where you went
Or who it was that really left
But when I pass those stained glass halls
I find you you filling up my head again
With Easter Sunday Sacraments
When I was just a kid
Playing games and pulling tricks out of our sleeves
But I can’t tell if we’re talking
You’re the same voice that I hear inside of me
When I’m too tired to think
Like a lamp light through the window in a starless sky
I never thought of you
As something I could lose
The spirit and the bride
The love of all my life
A family gathered where you lay
we laid our hands upon and prayed
Until they pulled me from my knees
And said it’s time for you to leave
“But I know the wonder working lord,
And I heard He’s raising from the dead again
The stories about Lazarus
Might be more than make believe
My lord is faithful,
Please take your hands off me.”
Now I dont hear you talking
No more comfort in the stories that I read
And I’m out of thoughts to think
The second coming savior running late this time and now I think I see
What lazarus taught me
The way he must’ve been surprised
The second time he died

The Silver Cord
03:49
|
|||
|
Moonless night I flee
into spirit a spirit dream
To find you, come and meet me in my room
I felt you knocking at my door
So I cut the silver cord
And let my spirit wander in the blue
This world is no home without you
Without you
Night will turn to day
And there will come a change
New life blooming up from the decay
I see the water making way
Paved roads to brighter days
But I follow where my burning takes me to
This world is no home without you
Without you
Is there such a thing as too far?
Can you burn for something too hard?
Can I come back home from this?
I wanna come back home from this one

Myths
04:09
|
|||
|
Suddenly my senses slip away
What is it they always say,
turn Another page?
But everything I read
Is full of saccharine similes
That makes my spirit ache, and now I feel it everyday
It’s the dizzy spell I meet at the edges of belief
And It’s the sound of my heart pounding
swelling up in me when I’m too scared to leave
It’s a hallelujah
And I’m learning how to sing
It’s a quiet chorus
Bleeding into everything
And someday soon the day is going to come
My Flickering flame, dancing for rain that doesn't pour
Chasing shimmers on the desert floor
And I keep coming back for more
But there's no garden from the seeds
And I'm starving for meaning
But there’s a weight and there’s a worth
To every myth you make to kill the constant ache
And there's a hallelujah
And I’m learning how to sing
It’s a growing chorus
Bleeding into everything
And someday soon the day is goong to come
And you’ll be buried in the weight
Gather all your rage
And take a swing
Until you find your own way
Carry everything into another day

Every Sun, Every Moon
04:30
|
|||
|
Searched for you star, some sacred sign
To light the path made by your memory running circles around my mind
Following footsteps left behind
But the more I look for you, the less of you I find
Under ever sun and every Moon
Find only shadows left of you
Sleepwalk through every day and night
And wake up begging in the doorways of imaginary lives
For just one with you inside
They always pass me by
But visions of you blinding me
Take me to shelter in the places where our joy and sorrow meet
Beyond all language and the steady hand of time
Where the less I for you, the more of you I find
Under every soon and every Moon
You are the light filling my view
Every soon and every Moon
Pulls me to you
Time will take everything from you
Let everything return to you
This life will bear its weight on you
Let all your love carry you through
Every Sun, Every Moon
