See You Soon

See you soon
When cold afternoons
Resign with the times
Alone in a silent room
Watching the world through strangers eyes
And I’m sure
We’re in for quite a ride
How will I know what’s true?
Are we seeing the same moon?
But I’ll believe
In the end it’s me and you
See you then
After the mystery
Where light meets shadow
Alone in a silent room
Watching the world grow stranger while
Time, fools
I take another look inside
How will I know what’s true?
The red I see is blue
But I believe
In the end it’s me and you
Meet me at the end
Of the world
To give away our secrets
When I see you again
I can dream it to life
We’ll never know goodbye
See you soon
Beautiful afternoon
Gold in the sky
How will I know what’s true?
I know you’re wondering too
Come on, believe
In the end it’s me and you
Meet me at the end
Of the world
To give away our secrets
When I see you again
I can dream it to life
We’ll never know goodbye

Living On Grace

Living on grace
Counting my days
Hungry old rooster crying
Heavy my feet
Ashen my heart
Can anyone hear me
When the dream died
We all cried
A heartbreak sound
Love is pain
People change
Will we rise again?
Nothing gets made
No one gets paid
Running out of silver lining
Freedom locked down
Country and crown
Caught each other sleeping
When the dream died
We all cried
A heartbreak sound
Love is pain
People change
How will we rise again?
Living on grace
Hungry and thin
Give me something to believe in
This is my life
Call it by name
Say it to the wind

A Way Through

You went high
I stayed low
Am I free
Or overgrown?
I rushed it
You took your time
Now you’re taking all of mine
I’m here to find a way
I’m here to find a way
I’m here to find a way through
Through to you
Kindness
You let me feel
Like dancing in the rain was cool
Forgiveness
Like Henley sang
Everything we know
Will change
I’m here to find a way
I’m here to find a way
I’m here to find a way through
Through to you

Without You

When it’s hard
Say the words
Mean the most
When it hurts
Know it’s good
See it work
It’s true, nothing’s free
Talk about
The way it was
A child in
A better world
But when it comes
To getting real
There’s nothing without you
Without you
Without you
I am spinning lonely through the dark
Without you
Without you
I am spinning lonely through the dawn
Yesterday
Before the sun
I heard a cry
From everyone
In a dream
Waking up
A sea of open eyes
Brother called
Silent words
Growing lights
Defeat the curse
In the rise
Our universe
Is nothing without love
Without love
Without love
We are spinning lonely through the dark
Without love
Without love
We are spinning lonely through the dawn
Without love
Without love
We are spinning lonely through the dark
Without love
Without love
We are spinning lonely through the dawn
