I Don’t Wanna’ Die Alone
I don't come here and expect to find,
Anything more than a piece of mind.
If I can't go home,
'Cause I don't wanna' die alone.
It's hard enough to watch the walls,
And have the nerve to screen my calls.
I can't stay here,
But I don't know where to go.
It was you who kept me safe from harm,
And you who held me all night long,
But now you're gone,
And I don't know where to go.
I don't come here to hide from pain,
Maybe I hope that they'll wash away.
There's something in the tide tonight,
That's saying it'll be alright.
But if I can't find God,
Am I gonna' die alone.
It was here, I sensed the worlds collide,
And wash away my pain with the tide.
If I can't find God,
Am I gonna' die alone?
If I can't find God,
Am I gonna, die alone?
Am I gonna' die alone?
It's hard enough to watch the walls,
And have the nerve to screen my calls.
If I can't find God,
Am I gonna' die alone?
And I don't come here and expect to find,
Anything more than a piece of mind?
If I can't find God,
Am I gonna' die alone?
It was you who kept me safe and warm.
And you who held me all night long,
It was here, I sensed the worlds collide,
And wash away my pain with the tide.
Now you're gone and I don't know where to,
If I can't find God, am I gonna die alone?

Are We Ever Going to Sleep
If you listen to my voice,
you would hear that I have no choice.
Hiding underneath the sheets,
Will I ever get some sleep?
This will haunt me in my mind.
There is no escape this time.
This is far beyond repair,
So much more than I can bear.
Will I ever be redeemed?
All I want is just one dream.
Am I every going to sleep?
I will bow down at your feet.
To rest my aching mind.
And put my past behind.

I Love You
I love you,
I really need your arms around me.
The sun has come up,
And I love you so much!
I need you,
I really need your hands upon me.
Keep me warm in the shade,
When the sun starts to fade!
I need you near,
To stay right here.
To keep me warm,
On this cold, cold day.
The leaves start to set,
Come on and jump in with me.
We'll climb the tree is the field,
I know you know where it's at.
I love you,
I really need your arms around me,
The sun has come up.
And I love you so much.
I need you,
I really need your hands upon me.
Keep me warm in the shade,
When the sun starts to fade.
I need you near,
To stay right here.
To keep me warm,
On this cold, cold day.
The leaves are all set,
Come and jump in with me.
Climb the tree in the field,
I know you know where it's all.
I love you,
I really need your hands upon me.
The sun has come up,
And I love you so much!
I love you,
I really need your hands upon me,
To keep warm,
On this cold,. cold day.

Maybe
Can you trust me?
Put a little faith in me now?
Can you give me something?
Give me benefit of the doubt?
Or is it too hard for,
You to trust in me.
You think you're the only one?
We could all use some love.
All I'm asking...
Is it all you're thinking of?
Must be too hard,
For you to trust in me.
I'll try a little harder,
But maybe I'll never
Maybe I'll never,
Live up to you.
Maybe if I just do,
Everything I want to,
I'll be just fine?
I'll stop trying,
To live for you.
Gotta' start believing,
It's the right thing to do.
But maybe if I just do,
Everything I want to,
I'll be just fine?
But baby I'll never,
Maybe I"ll never,
Live up to you?

Halo
I have been unready until now,
To notice all the beauty around.
I have a smile that won’t be insecure.
I’ve breathed the air of the clever and’ impure
Inside every autobiography,
Lies your person’s reflected fantasy.
Nothing can compare to the Now,
The fire of the past burns with the sound.
Nothing can compare to the Now,
The fire of the past burns with the sound.
I have been unready until now,
To notice all the beauty around.

Falling Tonight
I recall the stars shining brightly.
Start to fade as they fall down upon me now.
Watch the sky opening above me.
Hear the waves thundering.
They will be crashing.
See the clouds turn to rain.
There will be lightening tonight.
Watch the storm swallow me… Completely.
Hear the sound of your hear… Beating.
Like the rain on the rooftop in your room,
Pounding drums so intense, so much energy.
Here I am openly in your arms.
Feel the pull of our vibrations calling now.
Finally.

I Try
I saw you last night, eyes open wide.
Couldn't believe, what I'd come to see.
Existence collides, buried my pride.
And you by my side, felt I had died.
Kids in the street, living my life.
But I try, yes I try, yeah I try,
Eyes open wide, for you.
And I try, yes I try, yeah I try to stay open wide...for you.
And I try, yes I try, yeah I try to stay open wide...for you.

Blind
I’ve got a thing for you.
It’s more than all that you do.
You make me feel like a doll,
Even when I act like a clown.
Ooh ooh.
Ooh ooh.
Ooh ooh.
Ooh ooh.
I can’t explain this thing.
It’s more than just a fling.
You cut right to my core.
I’m afraid of what you might bring.
Ooh ooh.
Ooh ooh.
Ooh ooh.
Ooh ooh.
I’ve got a thing for you.
It’s more than all that you do.
You make me feel like a doll.
Even when I act like a clown.
Aah aah.
Aah aah.
Aah aah.
Aah aah.

Night Alone
I’m oblivious of time.
I’ve been studying sound for years.
I never knew what I could find.
Things have been there all the time.
So it’s the days we spend alone,
That shape our epitome.
I’ve got trouble on my mind.
It’s been sitting there for years.
And all the planets are aligned.
I can feel the change from here.
It’s the night’s we spend at home.
Sheltered from the unknown.
I want to sing a new song.
I’ve been waiting all too long.
It’s the night’s we spend at home.
Sheltered from the unknown.
I want to sing a new song.
I’ve been waiting all too long.

You Alone
You alone can’t cry my tears.
You alone can’t feel my fears.
The mural plastered wall,
Conveys your image well.
And all my life’s contentment,
Explicitly painted.
Honesty in words alone.
Brief committal through tone.
And I cannot sum my insides,
Into words.
And I’m afraid,
You’ll never see,
You’ll never see beyond these eyes.
You alone can’t carry the weight,
Of all the world’s suffering.
Your tattoo covered face,
Directing with grace.
And I cannot sum my insides,
Into words.
And I’m afraid you’ll never see,
You’ll never see beyond these eyes.
And I cannot sum my insides,
Into words.
And I’m afraid…
Feel the rhythm of my heartbeat slowly now.
Feel the rhythm of my heartbeat slowly.
Can you feel the rhythm of my insides?
