River

On the warm banks of the river of life
Men and women gather with all of their rights
You see those statues, they're men of frozen will
And we're not like them, baby
We will never be still

Take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind, I don't mind
Just take a little dive into the river, baby
I don't mind if we never get out

If heaven seems far away, just let your spirit sway
Just let your spirit sway
Just let you spirit�

It flows through the hearts of stone
It flows in-between the bone
It has flowed since the divine exchange
And flows forever, unchanged

Holy Weather

This is the final journey to the edge of ourselves
This is the beginning of the end
Took her hand and walked her through
Took her hand and walked her into the blue
Into that blue
So we walked on water and crossed the fields of burning sand
But the further we went, the more we became what we couldn't understand
I was drifting further away
She was lost like a breeze in a hurricane
A hurricane

You know that I've got you in my blood stream
You know that no matter how loud I scream
I still hear your voice in my head
You are the fire burning solo
You are the wind in between the snow
I can't escape you
I can't escape you

Go back, go back
Find yourself a train track
It�s not too late to go home
Passion is this weight on my shoulders
So why did you follow me into this den
When all the bluest stars paint your name
In a sky of black
You must go back

I told you that I�ve got you in my bloodstream
I told you that no matter how loud I scream
I still hear your voice in my head
You are the fire burning solo
You are the wind in between the snow
I can't escape you
I can't escape you

Fire Escape

We are the desperate ones, looking for the mark
We are the lonely ones left out here in the dark
We bought our tickets but we don't have a seat
And now we're just slaves to the beat

We are the tired ones, tired of too much sleep
Tired of searching for the words we can't repeat
I don't mean to scare you but it's getting too warm
And I think I'm going to move to the door

We are burning, this is real
We're on fire but we can't feel a thing
We were promised more than we could take
Everybody out it's a fire escape

Gather round my friends, let's try not to pretend
There is a war between the cold out there and the fire within
I know that we're alive, I know that we can dive
Right into the thick of it

We are burning, this is real
We're on fire but we can't feel a thing
We were promised more than we could take
Everybody out it's a fire escape

I don't want to fill my body with drugs I can't even name
I'm tired of feeling the same
I want to feel something

We are burning, this is real
We're on fire, don't you feel
We were made to be more than just awake
Everybody out it's a fire escape

We are burning, this is real
We're on fire but we can't feel a thing
We were promised more than we could take
Everybody out it's a fire escape

Move / Stay

One by one, the colors drip from the sun
And there he lies, looking through the window above
To get high
On and on, the years roll by, the trees grow high
And he counts everyone, to feel like a part of life
To feel high

Move, move, before it's too late
Move, move, before they close the gate
Everything�s got a reason, everyone's got a place
You gotta move if you wanna stay

If only I could work my way out into light
Start over new in a forest of dark night

Every Walk That I've Ever Taken Has Been in Your Direction

Some nights, I awake
To a room, plastic and fake
And the sheets smell of you
Even though you were never there
And I was never true
And my mouth fills up with the words I own
As if they never found a home

One last thing before I go
One last thing you need to know
Every walk that I�ve ever taken
Has been in your direction

I�m gonna live, I�m gonna die
I�m gonna know what it's like to be on the edge of something
Cause the robes, the thrones, the cornerstones
Will be burned into nothing
And I will know what it means to roam
I will rise like the orange dust of home

One last thing before i go
One last thing you need to know
Every walk that I�ve ever taken
Has been in your direction
One last thing before I go
I wanted every part of you to know
The one last thing before I go
I loved you more than�..
�you will know what I did
You will know what I did

Highway of Fallen Kings

I�m riding down the highway of fallen kings
Tires hiss as the engine screams
I�m like a fugitive alien on the run
But nobody can tell me what I�m running from
What am I running from?
I am the ghost that she passes through
And she is the choice that I can never choose
When am I going to find my peace?
When am I gonna know
When am I gonna know

What am I gonna do now
I�m already too far down
When am I gonna free
I�m just a ghost on the highway
What am I gonna do now
I�m already too far down
When am I gonna be free
I�m just a ghost on the highway of fallen kings

It's Over

You and I riding down Broadway looking for some action
Two scattered souls in a scattered world
Your hands on the wheel and your eyes searching for cover
But one look from you and it's over
One look from you and I�m over

I can't sleep with this heart�s beat thumping in my chest like an engine
So I gather all my things in the corner of the room
And I light the match and watch it burn to my fingers
But one word from you and it's over
One word from you and I�m over

People try to get what they want
People try to hold it so close
But they don't know that my heart is drift wood
Floating down your coast

It�s been two weeks now, since I walked through that front door
It�s been two weeks since I felt your skin
And tonight you where the spirit like a cover
And one touch from you and it's over
One touch from you and I�m over

Shape of a Sound

Spirits in the night
Motion in the deep
Waters running high
Calling out to me
Don�t know what you want
Don�t know what you need
Don�t know if it's right
This beauty in the night

Strange as it may seem
My body leans on only you
Only you

Two ships in the dawn
Two hands reaching for the spark
Just to see what I will find in the dark

When I was a boy I dreamed a lot
Of wonders I loved but soon forgot
Now I�m old and the dreams have changed
The palisade is all rearranged
But if my body's a temple that's built from the ground
And my soul is created by the shape of a sound
Then all that I lost will soon be found

Strange as it may seem
My body leans on only you
Strange as we may be
My body leans on only you
Only you

Sweet Resistance

We can't grow without getting old
We can't purchase bravery with gold
All of the dreams that we face
Before the morning glow
Need darkness before they show
Comfort is overrated
Give me something faded
I�ve spent my life asleep
I want sweet resistance
I spent the night outside your door in the darkest evening
And in the morning you pushed me away and gave me no reason
But all of the ways that you run
All of the ways that you keep it going
I can't get enough

Cause when all is said and done
You can lay me down on a bed of sun
And I will accept my fate
As I pass through that gate
And all of the reasons why I felt alive in the first place
Will be in the next age
As I turn that page
Into another beautiful stage
Of sweet resistance

Comfort is overrated
Giving me something faded

Please Don't Find Me

I ran my hands through my hair
Looked behind me, there was no one there
On the road from your house
Steady walk, I kept praying
But I don't know what I was saying
I just kept moving toward the sunrise

As much as I wanna be found
Please don't find me

There are so many things one could say
All the truth you keep away
Just to keep from lying by you at night
Well I traded all my love for this
I traded all my special gifts
Now I�ve got nothing left to trade

As much as I wanna be found
Please don't find me

Cause I�ve been running for a while
And I�m used to this by now
You wouldn't want to see a crumbling display
Of a man with nothing left to say

Doorway

Cold lips, cold hands, cold feet
On the street, there's no shelter from the heart�s beat
Faster and faster the winds blow down from the north
Sweeping these streets like ghosts on a march to war
A march to war
Outside there's a silhouette, changing her name
Changing her face every time I look away
We sway in the yellow light
With no more strength to fight

There are so many dreams that fade away
So many lives we just can't save
If you want this so bad
Then why do you stand like you do in the doorway
Come in, come in, come in

Come in
I never wanted anything like I want you

There are so many dreams that fade away
So many lives we just can't save
If we want this so bad
Then why do we stand like we do in the doorway
If this is it then why do I wait
All tangled up in the strings of fate
If I want this so bad
Then why do i stand like I do

Come in
I never wanted anything like I want you
