All I thought I wanted was A quiet place in the shade Where no one’s near the streams of tears That are falling down on my face Now I’m headed for brighter days It’ll be ok If life is like an ocean I was in an undertow of pain Then we locked eyes And I realized I was just standing inside the rain Oh it’s such a shame What we do to do ourselves But we both know you can learn so much From living in hell So lover kiss me softly now I’m trying to lift the curse And I’ve broke no mirrors But I still have fears Ain’t good luck just the worst? Cause I wish I could pretend That it doesn’t always end And I’ll love you Even when I’m afraid And I’ll love you Even when I’m afraid And I’ll love you Even when I’m afraid I’ve been walking down a road Of other men’s desires Then something changed When I heard your name And it lit my heart on fire Precious things make such beautiful flames But it all will turn to ash anyways And then we’ll call it dirt When it gets in the wrong place I cannot sleep tonight my love My brain is like a storm The fridges howl and electric choir That almost keeps me warm While the seems in my mind are completely torn And the images of death Are being born But it’s just another thing to hold on to In the night Well I’m an animal So it’s fear that keeps me alive And I’ll love you Even when I’m afraid And I’ll love you Even when I’m afraid And I’ll love you Even when I’m afraid

IT'LL BE OK 01:51
Please don’t talk to me Can’t you see I’m struggling with defeat? Don’t know what to do Feels like all the rainy days Come true And I don’t want it to be that way With a voice inside my head Saying everyone wants me dead But I’m gonna take another breath Cause I’m not afraid It’ll be ok Don’t walk next to me Can’t you see I’m tarnishing the street? Got a bad idea Of who I am And boy the future’s bleak And I don’t want it to be that way With a voice inside my head Saying no flour for the bread And the baby won’t be fed Yah I’m not afraid It’ll be ok

OLD HABITS 03:20
Help me doctor I feel fine There’s nothing to escape my mind If beauty cannot help me now Then I don’t wanna find out Feeling like the salt on the foam Shaking like a dog on the bone And nobody can see me clear But I don’t wanna disappear Into my Old habits Into my Old habits Is there anyone on the line? I’m calling for the millionth time The pieces of the past cannot shatter So tell me what’s the matter? In the crust I’ve dug so deep Trying to get some wonderful sleep When nobody can wake me here Who whispers in my ear? It’s you my Old habits It’s you my Old habits It’s you my Old habits It’s you my Old habits

SIGHS 02:55
Called my name out Underneath her eyes Called my self out And I know my disguise All the people Fumbling with the world How the wind blows And would you like to know? I won’t be someone else I won’t go and hate myself You don’t know me You know yourself Called my father He’s crying out to God Called my mother She’s six feet in the vase Called my brother He’s tumbling in the mud Washed my hands off When shit gets mixed with blood And I won’t be someone else And I won’t go and hate my myself You don’t know me You know yourself Puked my guts out And thrown it in the wash Pulled the ruts out Her sovereignty is lost Paint a picture When I’m jerking off And write you a letter Of poetry when soft…

WONT GO AWAY 02:32
And it wont go away And it wont go away And it wont go away And it wont go away Untie the weight that keeps me low I did not feel right now You know? The resurrection’s true It’s you I’m tired the way our lives are sold Only the fools think they’re full But they don’t know What’s true It’s you And it wont go away And it wont go away And it wont go away And it wont go away Set fire to who I was before Thinking myself into a hole A world turned black and blue Til’ I met you And it wont go away And it wont go away And it wont go away And it wont go away

In Your Arms 04:10
Could you come kill all the sorrow? As I hold onto you Like a knife Chopping away All my loneliest tomorrows Watching the pieces fly Cause it feels good To be loved one more day And it feels good When we’re feeling the same I wanna remember All my yesterdays In your arms In your arms Will you love me on a weekend? When the sun feels cold On your face Never really Could swim in the deep end Watching the branches sway And it feels good To be loved one more day Cause it feels good When we’re feeling the same I wanna remember All my yesterdays In your arms In your arms Oh, The brightest days I’ve known Have been since I saw you The memories come and go But you are eternal So damn beautiful Aphrodite Let’s take off our clothes And make love gently Oh, The brightest days I’ve known Have been since I saw you The memories come and go But you are eternal So damn beautiful Aphrodite Let’s take off our clothes And make love gently Cause it feels good To be loved one more day And it feels good When we’re feeling the same I wanna remember All my yesterdays In your arms In your arms In your arms In your arms

SAVED 02:44
Don’t know if I’ll survive The heat of God’s great warmth You turned on the light Now I’m drinking From the font The stars are out tonight Good grains of life have been sown And the burden Is so light In a hand that’s mine to hold You call my name And I reply with the rain You call my name How does it feel to be How does it feel To be saved? You said the truth’s a lie Nothing is as it seems So I waved goodbye To a world full of bitter dreams Sweetness comes and goes We make our own supply Don’t need anymore Than to look In my lover’s eyes You call my name How does it feel To be saved? You call my name How does it feel to be How does it feel To be saved?

Many years I can’t remember All the good times And the blues To lay my head down Beside yours That’s all I wanna do That’s all I wanna do So much time I have been lonely Wondering if There’s any use To place my hand Inside yours That’s all I wanna do That’s all I wanna do Forever seems Like a long time Until your standing In the grave To sleep forever Beside you That’s where I wanna lay That’s where I wanna lay
