\nFading<\/a>
\nAshes and DustPraying For Rain<\/a>
\nCan’t Come Undone<\/a>
\nYou’re Beautiful to Me<\/a>
\nWings of Love<\/a>
\nIt Means The World<\/a>
\nSound of Quiet<\/a>
\nThe Same Old Road<\/a>
\nOutro<\/a><\/p>\n
\nIntro<\/b><\/p>\n
\nFading<\/b><\/p>\n
\nEven the ache that these thoughts slowly bring.
\nOh it\u2019s a word or two
\nThat makes a thought go through
\nMy mind of times gone from my life.<\/p>\n
\nMore than I\u2019ll ever be.
\nI\u2019m left holding my heart out in my hand
\nPlease don\u2019t pity me, please know I understand<\/p>\n
\nI will not forget them, forever they\u2019ll last
\nThey\u2019ll stay in my heart
\nBeautiful as stars
\nThey\u2019ll play for today, wash me away.<\/p>\n
\nUnlike me you still have a heart to give
\nHow could I ever be so selfishly blinded by envy
\nThat I could not see that some memories
\nAren\u2019t meant to leave traces in other people\u2019s minds.<\/p>\n
\nAshes and Dust<\/b><\/p>\n
\nBefore it burned up I thought I was alright,
\nBut now it\u2019s all dust
\nAnd I tried to save us
\nBut I just couldn\u2019t muster the strength.<\/p>\n
\nOf the trust so misplaced
\nIn myself is now bitter regret
\nWhen it went up in flames
\nAnd left me with the blame
\nOh the pain I will never forget<\/p>\n
\nAnd I tried to save us
\nBut I just couldn\u2019t muster the strength
\nTo myself I lied
\nTold myself that I tried
\nThat ever would I fight to the end<\/p>\n
\nI am slowly slipping down the slope
\nOf the foolish lies that I have told
\nThat are now too slippery to hold
\nTell myself I cannot change
\nWhat I am but all the same
\nI still know I am the one to blame
\nWill my efforts always be in vain?<\/p>\n
\nWith my eyes shut up tight
\nNow it feels like a knife in my back
\nAnd what\u2019s left of it now
\nI really don\u2019t know how
\nI can pick up the pieces again.<\/p>\n
\nIt\u2019s all slipping away through my fingers.<\/p>\n
\nMemories rise with violence.
\nLosses linger, pain grows sharp
\nAshes cloud the sky so dark.<\/p>\n
\nFather give me the strength
\nWhen it stings my bare back to rejoice
\nGod I\u2019m begging you now
\nFor the rain to fall down
\nCause it keeps me moving on when I pray
\nFor rain<\/p>\n
\nHeal this broken heart with pain
\nAfter all this I should know
\nComfort kills me, hardships grow<\/p>\n
\nBecause I won\u2019t stay the same
\nIt\u2019ll kill me or make me more strong<\/p>\n
\n<\/a>
\nCan\u2019t Come Undone<\/b><\/p>\n
\nAnd all I know is that it hurts inside
\nAnd I\u2019m sitting here in silence \u2018cause the words just won\u2019t come
\nAnd all the pressure\u2019s building up \u2018cause I can\u2019t come undone.<\/p>\n
\nBut when I try I can\u2019t make a sound.<\/p>\n
\nI know I say that every time I\u2019m down
\nBut I\u2019m sitting here in silence \u2018cause the words just won\u2019 come
\nAnd all the pressure\u2019s building up \u2018cause I can\u2019t come undone.<\/p>\n
\nBut when I try I can\u2019t make a sound<\/p>\n
\nWhile you\u2019re sitting staring blankly wishing that you could just run away
\nAnd scream and let all the stuff out that\u2019s caged inside of you\u2026
\nWill you have the strength to spit it out and tear your way through?
\nAnd you just can\u2019t hold it in, but you just can\u2019t let it out,
\nSo whatya do my friend just hobble around?
\nAnd hope that someone somewhere sometime picks you out from the crowd
\nOf people surrounding you who feel it to with nothing to do?
\nThey\u2019re just like you!<\/p>\n
\n\u2018Cause there\u2019s a silent storm that you can\u2019t see.
\nIt\u2019s slowly growing stronger, but I don\u2019t know what that means\u2026
\nStill somehow it just won\u2019t seem to release.<\/p>\n
\nYou\u2019re Beautiful To Me<\/b><\/p>\n
\nYour deep grey eyes.
\nAnd all the time we\u2019ve had together,
\nI\u2019ll always remember.<\/p>\n
\nThey tell me that no one will always forever be friends
\nI know we have both made mistakes just like everyone
\nBut I don\u2019t believe that I\u2019ll ever be sorry or done
\nWith us<\/p>\n
\nThey\u2019re written on my heart.
\nAnd once the moon rose from behind the lake\u2026
\nIt\u2019s by my bed to this day.<\/p>\n
\nParts our ways
\nI just wanna say\u2026 You\u2019re beautiful to me.
\nI hope you don\u2019t forget what I just said\u2026
\nSo just in case, I\u2019ll say it once again.<\/p>\n
\nWings of Love<\/b><\/p>\n
\nI gave you my heart and I try to be the best I can be\u2026
\nBut I guess it\u2019s not enough
\n\u2018Cause I just can\u2019t rise above.
\nI\u2019ve said everything I can think of to say
\nBut you keep telling me I\u2019m the one running away.
\nSo I guess I\u2019ll sit and wait
\nAnd cry over my mistakes.<\/p>\n
\nA joy in my heart carved by agony\u2019s knife
\nWhen fate feeds my apathy and I lose this fight
\nRaise hope on the wings of love to dance through the night.<\/p>\n
\nI\u2019m trying and trying but you never tell me you see.
\nSo does that mean I\u2019m not enough?
\n\u2018Cause if it does, I\u2019m out of luck.
\nI\u2019ve been feeling so hurt, so lost and alone,
\nI see all my faults and mistakes and I hate them, Oh you should know.
\nSome how it seems you don\u2019t,
\nWhich hurts a lot more than you know.<\/p>\n
\nStill love whispers softly it\u2019ll all be ok.
\nJust keep on believing and hold on to hope,
\nDon\u2019t ever stop loving, don\u2019t ever let go.<\/p>\n
\nIs a joy in my heart carved by agony.
\nFate won\u2019t feed my apathy when I\u2019m not enough,
\n\u2018Cause hope\u2019s flying high on the wings of love.<\/p>\n
\nIt Means The World<\/b><\/p>\n
\nWhen there\u2019s nowhere left to turn,
\nThen the only thing that dulls the sting
\nIs to sing out all the hurt.
\nSometimes life gets so surreal
\nAnd there\u2019s only pain to feel.
\nInspiration dies and despite my tries,
\nWhat\u2019s left is just too real.<\/p>\n
\n\u2018Cause at this point that\u2019s all I can do.<\/p>\n
\nAnd Oh I know I can\u2019t sing,
\nBut it means the world to me
\nIf you listen\u2026
\nSo I\u2019m giving you all that\u2019s left
\nOf me after all this mess
\nI\u2019ve opened my heart I hope you see
\nA little bit of beauty.<\/p>\n
\nAnd the feelings that they make
\nWill be left behind and will dim and die
\n\u2018Cause that\u2019s always been their fate.
\nOh the music won\u2019t last long,
\nAnd in a moment I\u2019ll be gone,
\nBut because you stopped just to hear me talk,
\nOh tomorrow I\u2019ll keep on.<\/p>\n
\nSound Of Quiet<\/b><\/p>\n
\nIt takes a discerning ear.
\nIf you\u2019d only slow down for a moment,
\nIt\u2019s a beautiful sound to hear.<\/p>\n
\nAnd let God release you to live and to love.
\nWhile right now it\u2019s quiet, and everything\u2019s calm,
\nRight here in this moment is where you belong.<\/p>\n
\nIt rings so dead and cold.
\nEven amidst all our meaningless noise,
\nIt will leave a gaping hole.<\/p>\n
\nWrought by the bruises, the scars and the fights
\nIf you listen careful, and slow down your heart,
\nYou\u2019ll hear the very subtle quiet of God.<\/p>\n
\nThe Same Old Road<\/b><\/p>\n
\nOh I wish that I could just forget the past
\nC Em
\nHow I wish that consequences wouldn\u2019t last
\nC Em
\nThat future things would keep their worries to themselves
\nC D Em
\n\u2018Cause all this stress just doesn\u2019t help.
\nI wish my past would learn to not repeat itself,
\n\u2018Cause the memories I throw away can\u2019t seem to help
\nStealing all the same things they stole before,
\nTearing the same things they tore.<\/p>\n
\nI feel like I\u2019ve
\nG D
\nBeen here before,
\nC
\nBut I don\u2019t know why,
\nG D
\nShould there be something more?
\nC Em
\nPeople they come and go,
\nC Em
\nThe one\u2019s I love, the one\u2019s I don\u2019t,
\nC D
\nBut every time change take\u2019s its toll,
\nEm
\nIt doesn\u2019t seem to take this road.<\/p>\n
\nDo you feel the ache brought back by moonlight?
\nDoes your heart start to beat just a little fast?
\nJust brush it off, pretend it will pass.
\nThis has happened so often you know what\u2019s next,
\nIt\u2019s come around so many times you\u2019ll never forget.
\nYou know it\u2019ll all end like last time,
\nBut it\u2019s sweet to you lips tonight.<\/p>\n
\nBeen here a hundred times
\nDon\u2019t know why,
\nCan\u2019t say I really mind.
\nPeople they come and go,
\nThe one\u2019s I love, the one\u2019s I don\u2019t,
\nBut I wouldn\u2019t mind if you stayed
\nOn the same old road as me.<\/p>\n
\nSo if the night is sweet to you,
\nD G
\nWill you dance it, dance it, dance it through?
\nC Em
\nWill you dance with me \u2018till morning breaks?
\nD G
\nWill it slowly dull the ache away?
\nSo if it\u2019s sweet to you tonight,
\nAnd your heart will melt from the moonlight,
\nWill you walk the same old road again?
\nWill you dance with me \u2018till nightmares end?
\nI don\u2019t much care, you already know,
\nSo I guess we\u2019ll dance once more down this road.
\nAnd I know that something beautiful
\nWill always come to haunt my world.<\/p>\n
\nIf I ask will your heart come undone?
\nWill you walk down the same old road, love?
\nIf I ask will your heart strain to come?
\nWill you dance with me like you\u2019re in love?<\/p>\n
\nOutro<\/strong><\/p>\n
