Modern Times 04:21
Modern Times The man we were after was killed in his bed He tried to sell fear and paint the streets red I remember the day that he ended up dead It was like any other day We stared in the mirror but we couldn’t smile Our sadness was heavy, it weighed a whole mile It lasted forever, we waited a while We wanted a miracle I want to fly far away, up Where diamonds hang in the air I want to take some light from the sun And bring it back to share Place it high up on a hill Yeah to light up the dark I want to learn love Want to break my own heart I walked past the old church and the ghost of a hymn Came out to greet me inviting me in I said “nice to meet you, but where have you been We already know everything” And a well dressed up man with a well versed up tongue He told us to trust ourselves to overcome I told him I didn’t come here to have fun His answers were meaningless These days are noisy And the shadows are long The temperature’s rising And something is wrong I want to try trust Placed in a whisper of wind I heard God speak When the quiet settled in Oh modern times, I think of a man Who puts plastic gloves over his hands Sets about trying to love the best he can While keeping his fingers clean And while we were driving, turned left instead of right Got out of the car to change all the signs Made us feel better for a little while But I knew we were still lost Direction is uphill Description is war But this is our future That we’re fighting for So if it gets worse Before it improves Darling don’t lay down We’re gonna find a way through I want to learn love

In My Blood 04:30
In My Blood Intimate as a whisper You played the loudest bell I tasted salvation When your defenses fell I saw you in a new light The past was rinsed away A flower opens so slowly So the fragrance it can stay So thick that I can swim So deep you take me in Let your water cover me in a flood Oh I want your blood in my blood Let your water cover me in a flood How I want your blood in my blood At first your bones were shattered You were blood covered and stained Darling I could see you broken And your beauty it still remained So come in close to me As close as two can be Let your water cover me in a flood Oh I want your blood in my blood Let your water cover me in a flood How I want your blood in my blood I want you to come close Do not be alarmed This river to bring healing It's never to harm Let your water cover me in a flood I want us to be closer than we ever knew we could Your water will cover me in a flood How I want your blood in my blood

The Action Is Rising Let go of the pen I hold Let go of everything I’ve known Let go of a broken past I’m done with looking back Let go of the pen I hold At last I let my own plot go At last I let my own plot go Look back on the pages torn All the creases and corners worn Stories of a tell-tale heart In need of a brand new start Look back on the pages torn At last I let my own plot go At last I let my own plot go Hey, this is not over, just you wait Hey, the action is rising Rewrite the story Letting you in Take what has ended And let it begin Let go of the pen I hold Let go of everything I’ve known At last I let my own plot go At last I let my own plot go At last I let my own plot twist into your hands The storyline saved just in time Hey, this is not over, just you wait Hey, the action is rising Hey, this is not over Hey, the action is rising

Arlington 05:15
Arlington Just across the river there’s a place I’ve often been Where lay rest the warriors and brave young men I’ve heard gorgeous stories about times long past Preserved in memories more fragile than glass On and on Here I go to my rest That long repose That never ending bed Arlington, I tried and I tried But the more that I seek you The more that you hide Arlington, and it scares you to death You act like love and suffering Are two strangers who’ve just met Just across the river there’s a hillside covered in white stone I’m fighting a world war with myself to win a love of my own Just then she walks away and I know just where she goes She’s gone to Arlington to dig another one of them damned holes Arlington, I tried and I tried Just to reach you love But I heard no reply Arlington, your face set like stone With a spine of flesh And a heart that’s made of bone It’s a shame Arlington, I’ll be back here again I go where you go ‘Cause I’ve been where you’ve been It’s a desperate place Arlington

Walk In The Dark Oh darling I see you With eyes that have changed In a glass house I can see where you lay You suffer in love So heavy the weight I know, I’ve been here before Don’t be afraid You were built on a stone When the wind starts to scream And you’re standing alone There’s a hand that is guiding It’s guiding you home I know, I’ve been here before Sometimes life is a walk in the dark Sometimes love is a blade in your heart So when they cut into you And the poison does flow I will follow you down To wherever you go You can lean on my heart When the lights are down low I know, I’ve been here before Sometimes life is a walk in the dark Sometimes love is a blade in your heart You are the reason And now is the season for walking blind But one day you’ll leave it all behind Sometimes life is a walk in the dark Sometimes love is a blade in your heart But one day you’ll leave it all behind On a path that you’re cutting Travelling through the night On that day you will reach out Touch that beacon light Alright

Tumbleweeds 03:54
Tumbleweeds Rough and tumble Tumbleweeds Weeds growing in my yard Like they’re growing in my heart And taking over I tried to cut a path to you So that you were not alone But these obstacles to love Had taken root and overgrown Patience dear, I’m coming soon Trip and fall, I felll for you ‘Cause you lead me home Push and pull A tug of war A war that’s in my heart Want to love you as you do deserve I still have yet to start I don’t understand your understanding Don’t know how you wait But the sadness I saw in your eyes It magnified your grace Patience dear, I’m coming soon I’ll make my life a gift for you ‘Cause you lead me home I will find my way to you ‘Cause your love it binds the breaks and wounds From dislocation To salvation ‘Cause you lead me home

Road Map 04:07
Road Map Highway lines spread out before my eyes Black and white for miles and miles and miles I’m following the signs but still I roam Wandering is the slowest way home Show me a road map ‘Cause I don’t know where I’m going Show me direction For the river I am rowing I’ve reached the end of yet another road I’m carrying the weight of one more load Well hope is still a fire, I feel it burn Faith is still a wire on which I turn Show me a road map ‘Cause I don’t know where I’m going Show me direction For the river I am rowing I went to the ocean And the tide was going out I stood on the shore there I was waiting through my doubt For the sea to come to me All of my life I have been searching for you I’m just a poor man in need of good news Even in the black the cracks can let light through Let light through To show me a road map I will follow where you lead In your direction For now I’m where I’m meant to be I went to the ocean This time my tide was coming in It swallowed my footprints The darkness I was living in And the sea it came to me At the edge of a road map You showed me a road map Showed me a way

White Flag Flies It takes patience Waiting his turn No guarantees now His stomach can burn His dreams cost more Than he even owns Shorter on grace now The heaviest bones But when the white flag flies That’s when the anguish dies That’s when the battle cries Are fading away And when there’s peace at night That’s when your house gets quiet That’s when your heart can sigh And be filled again When the white flag flies The road curves up Around the bend Another turn now It’s never the end We’re always travelling But what is the goal And it’s nighttime Inside his soul But when the white flag flies That’s when the anguish dies That’s when the battle cries Are fading away And when there’s peace at night That’s when your house gets quiet That’s when your heart can sigh And be filled again When the white flag flies Well sometimes it’s clean And sometimes it’s dust Sometimes your heart Is covered in rust His arms reach up He’s asking for more A little closer Each time he’s born It’s takes a soldier To live with the strife It takes a hero To lay down his life It looks like a graveyard But darling it’s ripe So let’s change the world now We’ll set it on fire ‘Cause when the white flag flies That’s when the anguish dies That’s when the battle cries Are fading away And when there’s peace at night That’s when your house gets quiet That’s when your heart can sigh And be filled again When the white flag flies

Song For A King Can a king survive on a peasant’s wage With the majesty of a humble slave? Did you really think I could walk away? I’ve been up and down Dry and drowned Stripped and crowned So where’s your heart live Where’s your heart live now? Can a kingdom rise and a kingdom fall? I’ve been having dreams The writing’s on the wall I paint it black to forget it all I’ve been up and down Dry and drowned Stripped and crowned So where’s your heart live Where’s your heart live now? You are a mystery So open your secrets to me As long as my arms have the strength To keep holding on I will be holding on to you Darling come to me I am thirsty now Will you celebrate when your lost is found? Does your love remain Even just an ounce? I’ve been up and down Dry and drowned Stripped and crowned So where’s your heart live Where’s your heart live now?

Dreams 04:37
Dreams I never was alive Until I lost the light Until the fall of night Until my last defense was gone I had lost my voice In the static noise I was naked and wandering There was no one around In the dead of the night Love came to my side I opened wide my chest Her words became my light I don't remember much more Wondering why do I forget my dreams? Our town had a street Where sometimes you'd meet A man with two faces One of them good And on the other side There was no more light We were younger then We believed in a cure In the dead of the night Love came to my side I opened wide my chest Her words became my light I don't remember much more Wondering why do I forget my dreams? My dreams There is nothing more That I could endure Had you not been there Caught in my wounded stare I called my brother up on the telephone He knows something that no one else knows He said, "In the dead of the night Love comes to your side She lifts you when you've fallen down She gives you back your eyes So just say yes again no matter where you've been The resolution closer than it seems" I pray we not forget our dreams

Go 03:48
Go Dear you have been talking Talking in your sleep Dream you’re on a sailboat Casting off into the deep Can you hear my voice, love When I whisper in your ear? It’s time for you to set sail Oh so tell me what you fear Go, go Everything you need is who you are Go, go While the wind is blowing in your heart You can’t steer a sailboat When it’s standing still You can’t change your tack If your sails are not filled You hear the ocean calling But you are afraid What is your direction? The many choices to be made Go, go Everything you need is who you are Go, go While the wind is blowing in your heart You will see a light before you Angels by your sides You will hear a voice behind saying, “This is the way This is the way This is the way” Oh it’s time Oh it’s time to begin Many miles you will sail on the wind In my heart And coursing underneath my skin You will stay Go, go Everything you need is who you are Go, go While the wind is blowing in your heart While the wind is blowing in your heart
