Time
All the fear I have is time
All the fear I have is moments
Some ahead and some behind
For...
Forty years to find the shore
Forty years to’ve finally broken
Through the shell of evermore
And for every moment I have chased upon a line
And for every moment I've erased upon a line
I’ll claim them all again
In time
And for every moment I have chased upon a line
And for every moment I've erased upon a line
I’ll claim them all again
In time

Something Nothing
03:58

Out of the fire
Set away from it all
Fire of the soul
California living is on
Over's the siege; the calling of a radical age
Over's the haul; It strengthens but it don't make you sing
Out of the woods; you stumble on your way to the light
Braced for it all; barely alive
"Out into Nothing", I thought I heard a radical say
There lies your soul
It's Nothing, for what else could it be?

Oh my love I am afire
And I don't know if you can help me
Oh my love I am afire
And I don't know if you can reach me
Is it because I won't release the past?
Is it because I won't forgive?
And wear the former like a leaden sash?
And drink the latter from a sieve?
Called my heart to open wide
Though I don't think it recognized me
Called my heart to open wide
You think that it could now despise me?
What if I said, "Hey. It is me. I'm back”?
That, "I could use a little help".
And that, "I'm willing to be free at last".
Although I know that you can tell
That I am never gonna say, "Oh well"
Is it because I won't release the past?
Is it because I won't forgive?
And wear the former like a leaden sash?
And drink the latter from a sieve?
What if I said, "Hey. It is me. I'm back"?
And, "I could use a little help".
And that, "I'm willing to be free at last,
As long as I don't
Have to say, 'Oh well'".

Take
All my hate
Give me mountains
Give me lakes
Take
All my rage
Give me sunshine
Give me rain
Give me rain
Turn
All my tears
All my regrets
All my fears
Tell
Me a tale
Wind of fire
Wind of sail
And take
All your drugs
Give me oceans
Give me friendship
Give me love
Take
All my rage
Give me laughter
Show me solace
Show me grace

Dream
06:51
|

|
All my time
And all time
And for my arms my luminance
For I have been
Where I once was
On the edge of my dream there was a tide
On the edge of my lungs there was a line
And for my heart
My Roman guard
My Isengard
My faithful sword
And for my heart
My room of bones
My room of stones
My fated star
On the edge of my dream there was a tide
On the edge of my lungs there was a line
There was a peace and love that dare I call divine
On the edge of my dream there was a tide
There was a peace and love from where I drew my name, I know
There was a peace and love from where I drew my face, I know
And all my innocence was there upon that stage
My heart
Belongs
To you
On the edge of my dream there was a tide
On the edge of my dream there was a line
There was a peace and love that dare I call divine
On the edge of my dream there was a sign

Leave It All
04:24

Falling down the line I thought I'd wasted all my time
Thought I'd seen it all
Falling all the way I turned around with all my hate
Thought I'd seen it all
Falling down the line I thought I'd wasted all my time
Rested on the fall I turned around to find I hadn't seen at all
I asked a man in line how long he'd waited for this ride
And was it at all possible it was all a lie?
He said, "A lie, for sure. I once aspired so much more
But o'r the years I disappeared staring off the shore"
So now I tell you
Do not follow me
Or you'll come to misery
So now I tell you
Do not follow me
For I'll soon be through
And you can be free
Godspeed

So It Goes

So, so it goes, no one knows, no one sees
You, Bella blue, Bella true, but I see...
It all
And so now I offer you
Oh, something new
For both of our lives
And so
And so it goes
And nobody knows
It’s just you and I
And I want to tell you The Lie
Planes and cars and trucks, they move me around
We go up and go down
Only to arrive
At the same place, oh we never leave
Forever to be
In a cage
Pacing
And so now I offer you
Oh, something new
For both of our lives
And so, and so it goes
And nobody knows
It’s just you and I
And so now I’ll tell you – The Lie
And when we get there we will live a life with nothing to prove
Where everyone knows
With nothing to lose
And so it goes, and so it goes, and over and over I know
And we will be fine
And we will be great

Show me the bright blue sky
Where the day goes to revery
Show me the orange sun
Of the same day; no memory
Show me the beating heart
Of a young man forevermore
Show me the heaving lung
Of the same man forever free
You and me
Over the bright blue sky
Will now You please show me?
Shadow'f the orange sun
Will now You please show me?
Blood of the beating heart
Do reveal From What Made Is Thee
Into the Nothing Something, of The Unborn Who’ll Never Die
You and I

Ama

All my troubles flown away
All my anger disappeared
All my senses they return
No more anger no more fear
Have I ever felt the sun?
Have I ever smelled the rain?
How is it I never knew
How far I was beneath the wave?
Ama wrap your arms around me
I will find my peace in you
Ama wrap your arms around me
I will make my bed in time
Ama wrap your arms around me
I will find my home in you
Ama rest my soul
Light a candle for my friends
Light a candle for my foes
Help me with the latter please
Show me where The River goes
Ama wrap your arms around me
I will find my peace in you
Ama wrap your arms around me
I will make my bed in time
Ama wrap your arms around me
I will find my home in you
Ama rest my soul

Bound by the woods, and the fields and the streams, and the summer sun
Bound by the woods, and the fields and the streams, and the summer sun
Bound by the sky, and the dirt, and the wind and the sea
Bound by the sky, and the dirt, and the wind and the sea
Bound by the twirls of the girls of a world with a fading star
Bound by the twirls of the girls of a world with a fading star
Turning, and turning, and turning they come and they go
Turning, and turning, and turning they come and they go
From?
To?
No one knows
Come, take my hand, I'll find a place we belong
Come, take my hand, I'll find a place we belong
Come with me now
I'll find a place we'll be strong
Come, take my hand
I'll find a place we belong
For you I'll be strong
Oh I see the light
I see rainbows by day, stars by night

Carried on waves of my love
Carried on waves of the ocean those times I was
Haunted by you
Carried on waves of my dreams
Carried on waves of the ocean those times I was
Haunted by you
Then I see it all
Turn to dust in my heart
Then I see it all
Turn to dust in my head
Found through the woods of my soul
Found through the waves of the ocean those time I was feeling
alight
Found through the woods of my soul
Found through the ways of the ocean those times I was feeling so
light
Then I see it all
Turn to dust in my heart
Then I see it all
Turn to dust in my head
Then with words from The Isles
Word from The Seige
Words from A Star in my stead
Then I see it all
Turn to dust in my heart
Fall in my heart
Fall in my head
Destiny's the line
Words will carry thee
Fall in my heart
Fall in my head
Destiny's alive
Words will carry thee
