Waiting, waiting, waiting for change
For things to look up, for things to look down
For things to go right, but probably left
I'm tired of this stagnant state of living
But the beauty of love and promise ahead
May take on the weight and petty regret
Every day another chance, slipping through my fingertips
Time, will you heal all of my wounds?
Time, will you drag me out of these god-forsaken blues?
Will you wait for me to go wrong,
Or will you just keep ticking on?
Waiting for the turning of a season
For the winds of change and scents of spring
And the direction that it will bring
New life is coming, I can feel it on my fingertips
Time, will you heal all of my wounds?
Time, will you drag me out of these god-forsaken blues?
Will you wait for me to go wrong,
Or will you just keep ticking on?

Oh, Dear Lorraine
04:01
|
|||
|
You've had to wait an hour
To ride the train
The mist and distant showers
Keep dear Lorraine
Every time she runs, she runs away from what she loves
Every time she runs, she pushes everything she cares for
To the side
Oh, dear Lorraine
What are we gonna do with her
Just wait a little longer
She'll come around
Though its metal bars are red with rust
The railway bench will hold you up
Every time she sings, she sings of finding what she loves
Every time she sings, she's just a half-step shy
Of overcoming her pride
Oh, dear Lorraine
What are we gonna do with her?
Just a little longer as she figures out her way
Just a little longer, will she come around today
Oh dear, Lorraine
Take care, Lorraine
Every time she sings, she sings of finding what she loves
But she can't fight for what she searches
For she's in over her head
Oh, dear Lorraine
Oh, dear Lorraine
What are we gonna do with her?

Lady Wisdom

Lady Wisdom
You are calling in the street
And as you set your path my feet will follow you
Lady Wisdom
You'e awakened me by name
And invited me to take hold of the truth
You were there when the ocean met the sky
You were there in my darkest nights
And I'll find in you the source of my life
Lady Wisdom
Your ways are true and pure
And your riches will endure beyond my days
Lady Wisdom
You have shown to me sweet joy
And have filled the void and cleared out all my haze
You were there when the world first came alive
Your words are made of light
And I'll find in you the source of my life
Lady Wisdom
You are found in gracious hearts
And you fill them with ambition to become
Lady Wisdom
You have shared with them your words
With your discernment resting on their tongues
You are here when dispute and hatred arise
When the black looks the same as white
And the gray awaits to capture the light
You are here when the flowing springs are dry
You extend your hand to mine
And I'll find in you the source of my life

Upturned
03:18
|
|||
|
Lost, lost in my own comfort zone
Changing my mind with every decision I make
Wrong time and time and time again
Falling flat on my face when I think I'm thinking logically
But where do you go
When your whole world has been flipped upside-down?
Changing directions is rather complex
When you've been upturned
Stuck, flooded with impediments
Shifting my way through what seems to be a pointless strain
Caught, something's pushing me about
Tumbling up and all around as the tide pulls in and out
But where do you start when it's unnatural to begin with?
Finding my footing, I wish that I would've paid attention
And where do I go when I don't even know where I stand now?
Changing my ways would only further the haze in me of self-doubt
Upturned, unopposed and unaware
Upturned, letting go will take me there

Ways Of My Own
03:30
|
|||
|
Itching out, pushing forward
Moving on, stretching outward
Little roots make their way down
Finding depth on my own
Different roles, changing focus
Never dropped, never broken
How your compass has helped me
To find ways of my own
Fragile arms, unprotected
Not apart, nor connected
I can reach if I need you
But I'll grow on my own
Looking 'round we uncover
Common ground with one another
Not in fear or in hiding
Living life on my own

The Quiet
03:57
|
|||
|
Take this love
Away from me
Redirect
Your artificial glee
Have you ever felt true peace?
Can you tell me what it is to be faithful?
When you're in his arms, do you know
You're at home
Hear this truth
Above the riot
There is life
In the midst of the quiet
Have you ever felt true joy?
Can you tell me what it is to be gentle?
When you're in her arms, do you know
You're at home

Excommunication
04:05
|
|||
|
Excommunication, you never cease to let me down
With every fitful cry I'm dying to reach out
But you're nowhere to be found
Heartache of yesterday festers like an open wound
Is there anyone out there to ease the pulling apart of two?
We said we'd go through life together 'till we die
Did it become okay to give up without a fight?
You showed this lonely heart a temporary bliss
And I thought to myself, "I could take some sentimental value out of this"
Countless attempts, unnecessarily exempt
You walked away, laying the bricks down memory lane
Anything would be better than this lonely song I sing
But we'll let music be our middle-man.
Is there anyone out there?

Broken

Let me go in peace
I’m walking away with hesitant feet
But a readied heart
Let my love be new
It’s hard to look at you with different eyes
But, hey, it’s a start
Please hold nothing against me
‘Cause in my eyes, your slate is clean
We can continue to love each other
Through bigger and better means
Living in this peace
I’m emptied of me
But bursting at the seams
With new life
I’m not looking to be fixed
I’m not asking to be shaped or molded
But I am ready for it to be okay
We gave it a chance
And it was great for a season
Now it’s time for a change
We both have our reasons
Let’s say one last goodbye
And call it a year
Wishing each other the best
We’ll shed only good tears
I’m not looking to be fixed
I’m not asking to be shaped or molded
But I am ready for it to be okay to be broken

Misunderstand Man

Misunderstand Man
Do you ever hear anything I say?
You hold my hand
But then consistently turn your head away
I’m getting tired of you
Misunderstand Man
Do you even care of anything they say?
Their slanderous mouths run
But in return you hold on to you old ways
How stubborn can one man be?
Misunderstand Man
The tables turned as you always knew they would
Please excuse the confusion
The you we thought we knew was just misunderstood

Lost and Wanting
05:10
|
|||
|
Draw me to the fountain
Drown me in your love
Pure water surrounding
I can’t get enough of you
Pull me through the fire
As passion’s fragrance burns
I stand on the altar
Hoping never to return
Call me to the battle
Shield me by your name
This ancient protection
In present still the same
Surpass expectations
Fill the room with smoke
Realizing your presence
Is music beyond notes
I am empty
Lost and wanting to be found
Push me, pull me
Lead me onto holy ground

Colorado Skies
03:34
|

|
Freckles in your autumn eyes
Bring me back to those Colorado Skies
Sitting here on your front porch
Thinking back to who we were before
Look ahead and come what may
Yesterday had come and gone away
Whistling through Aspen trees
Wind sheds us of our auburn leaves
