Say you will, say you won’t
Be the light to lead us home
Speak it easy, speak it true
We are born to follow you
Keep it open, every door
Be a feeling we can’t ignore
Not a whisper, shout it out
Free from doubt
Show yourself to me
Show
Show yourself to me
Show yourself to me
Show yourself to me
Give us strength, hold us up
Be the water to fill our cup
Through the desert, be the guide
The song in my mind
Keep it simple, keep it pure
Be the truth that we came here for
We must stand, heart in hand
Fire in our chest
Show yourself to me
Show
Show yourself to me
Show yourself to me
Show yourself to me
Show.

Dead Horse
03:15
|
|

You are not a machine
Just the man that you’ve always been
Weak to the core
Rotten fruit, we don’t want no more
Take it from me
The right way is never easy
Sparks will fly
There’s more to life than the world you buy
I’ve been wasting time
Dragging a dead horse across that line
You’ve been living a lie all along
Now I’m gone
I’m not a saint
Tainted by this life I made
But I get on by
Take this road and ride ‘til I die
I’ve been wasting time
Dragging a dead horse across that line
You’ve been living a lie all along
I’ve been wasting time
Leave the weight and woe behind
You’ve been living a lie all along
Now I’m gone.

Porcelain

Porcelain breaking down
Wondering what it’s like on the other side of a frown
Cracking at the seams and the tears don’t dry
Vivid nightmares are calling
(nothing like, nothing like, nothing like, nothing like)
All the wild leaves are falling
(nothing like, nothing like, nothing like, nothing like)
You’re nothing like before
How do you wake, feeling the weight?
Promise of better days
Pain it will fade, you’ll bend and not break
Drift on, Porcelain
Faith lies here, Porcelain
Constantly around, but it’s blowing in the wind
Tethered to a world that’s parallel
Vivid daydreams are waiting
(go and find, go and find, go and find, go and find)
There is life in this painting
(go and find, go and find, go and find, go and find)
So go and find your own
How do you wake, feeling the weight?
Promise of better days
Pain it will fade, you’ll bend and not break
Drift on, Porcelain.

Throw Me To The Wolves

Throw me to the wolves
I’m a man, misunderstood
I’m a house without a roof
I’m a bird that is let loose
Go on, feed me to the lions
I was raised and born in fire
Just a flame that can’t climb higher
I am home where I am stood
Heroes and numbered days
Songs that show their age
I’m growing old before my time
Heroes and numbered days
Songs don’t sound the same
Throw me to the wolves
I don’t want to be saved
Throw me to the wolves
I am bound to my own fate
I lay square upon these tracks
Not for the glory or the chase
Won’t you leave me to the jungle
It is here that I will thrive
Little haven in a wasteland
This is where I come alive
Heroes and numbered days
Songs that show their age
I’m growing old before my time
Heroes and numbered days
Songs don’t sound the same
Throw me to the wolves
I don’t want to be saved
So go on, paint me as your target
Go and talk as talkers do
I am tired of your false melody
Blowing hot air enough for two
Throw me to the wolves
Go on, let 'em show their teeth
Oh, the call that you are hearing is not the same that beckons me
Heroes and numbered days
Songs that show their age
I’m growing old before my time
Heroes and numbered days
Songs don’t sound the same
Throw me to the wolves
I don’t want to be saved
Slave to the music
And I love this ball and chain
Throw me to the wolves
I don’t want to be saved.

Comfortable Skin
04:34

I’ve never seen such comfortable skin
You wear it around like the world’s not caving in
But you know that it is
You babble for hours and you dance like a child
But don’t let the world get you down, make you wild
All of those things make you who you are
Don’t ever change
Don’t act your age
When life gives you rain
Stay the same
I started to see something change in your eyes
A hurt that appeared in the height of July
Oh, how time flies
If only they knew what you’re feeling inside
A darkness did come, stripped you of your pride
Don’t let that thing make you who you are
Don’t ever change
Don’t act your age
When life gives you rain
Stay the same
Don’t push me away
Don’t hide your face
If you’re feeling the strain
Stay the same
We all have our quiet places
We all have our saving graces
I know and I wanna be yours
Inside we’re all broken
Sick from the motion
A world that keeps spinning and it never slows
But I am yours
Don’t ever change
Don’t act your age
When life gives you rain
Stay the same.
