Verse 1:
She told me "I've had enough
I'm just not good at this
I don't know where to start"
She said, "This is the last time I call this bluff 'cause
Reality always
Has the better cards"
Pre-Chorus:
She's wondering why good things never last
Why she's never on the greener grass
Everybody needs to believe they can change that so
Chorus:
Hold your head high let's
Watch the sunrise
And breathe your new life
Shake what's keeping you
Take you're first step into
Your new life
Verse 2:
And she keeps on locked inside
It's been too many years
Of ineffective tries
You see she's forgotten the beauty of life
Is that the future only comes
One day at a time
Bridge:
Sitting on her hands crossing her feet
So afraid that history repeat
Barely have the courage left to breathe
Come on get up life's not out of you
Look around there's so much left to do
Take hold of what you can make new

What Have We Done
03:56
|
|

|
Verse 1:
Watch as these noblemen
Build wages in there sleep
With paupers at their hands
And kisses on their feet
They shape our needs
For a little more of the green
Verse 2:
Watch as these politics
Disguised as gentlemen
Form nations with their wit
Into playgrounds they command
They're herding sheep
They're herding you they're herding me
Chorus:
What have we done
What have we done
What have we done to ourselves
They've given us a gun
We thought we'd have some fun
What have we done to ourselves
Verse 3:
Watch as these lovers call
To peel us from our brides
With our backs against the wall
They stand challenging our pride
One step to test
One trip our lives become a mess
Bridge:
And we're lying to ourselves
And we're lying to ourselves
And we're lying to ourselves

Hear the Sound

Verse 1:
A broken heart looms in the vastness
Healing starts once it is found
A hungry frame cries in the emptiness
Healing starts once it is found
Chorus:
Feel the beat of humanity's battle
Hear the sound
Verse 2:
A lonely soul is pulled into darkness
Salvation starts once it is found
A crippled dream rots in its stillness
Redemption starts once it is found
Chorus:
Feel the beat of humanity's battle
Hear the sound
Feel the pulse of a struggling people
Crying out hear the sound

For Your Thoughts
05:41
|
|

Verse 1:
Penny for your thoughts
I've been saving for a while
A heart tied up in knots
Spying trying to read your smile
Chorus:
Break out the lamp and the matches
Let's kill the shade
No more playing games with the lights off
Come on let's clear the gray
Verse 2:
There's a deepness to my ocean
I feel no one knows and I want you to
And a steepness to your mountain
I'm climbing constantly to get to you
Can we...
Outro:
Let me know your heart you can know mine too
All you give will return to you
Let me know your heart you can know mine too
All you give will return to you
Back to you

In the Form of a Woman
04:10
|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
Cold as ice but her beauty
Has me asking twice what she's thinking
Her smile refined to compel me closer
Verse 2:
She extends a hand and her curved form bids
Me to dance in the shadows
While I'm losing track of the street from which I came
Chorus:
Safe
She swears that we'll be safe
And tells me to embrace what we have
Verse 3:
We justify spinning bottles
Tossing dirty die reckless teasing
Confusing my mind still she moves to pull me deeper
Chorus:
Safe
She swears that we are safe
And tells me to embrace what we have made
Our secrets grow with time
My ideals don't align with what we have
Bridge:
It seems like only yesterday we met
And you asked to come in
Cold beauty you invaded my head
I wish we never went where we've been
Wish we never went where we've been
Wish we never went where we've been
Chorus:
Safe
She swore we would be safe
I foolishly embraced what we had made
Our wrongs only made worse
Now I'm too far to reverse what we had

Meant for Me
04:25
|
|
||
|
Verse 1:
I feel a rustling
Where I buried my own heart
Where I left my appetite
It's not unusual
To get lost in disregard
Out of mind what's out of sight
Chorus:
Here we blanket the fear
Of all of the days that could turn into years
Of not calling it mistake
An unwillingness to take
What's meant for me
Verse 2:
There's tale of one or few
With a faith incurable
And a fire in their eyes
Marching relentlessly
To the pulsing of the soul
Making fools of those thought wise
Chorus:
They danced on the grave
Of all of the plans that society made
And nobody could ignore
The message that they had more
Meant for them
Bridge:
Forgive me Love
For giving up
Conceding to compromise
In this time Hope decays
Hands fall to waste
You urge that I recognize
It's not a life
Chorus:
I have realized
Nobody else can mature what is mine
It's nobody else's seed
And nobody else can be
What's meant for me
