The Feeling
02:35

I’ve been here before
I know the feeling and I can’t look back when I feel it
Or someone’s gonna steal it
Someone’s knocking at the door
I can hear it baby, I can hear it
And I’m not gonna fear it
On a cold dark night with the stars in sight
Come on sing
Excitement in store
It tastes so sweet, I can taste it
And I’m not gonna waste it
Please sir a little more
It’s not enough to be near it I wanna touch it
Maybe interrupt it
On a cold dark night with the stars in sight
Come on sing
And we live our lives and all the waves they’re coming

Falling Apart
02:56

I can’t see what you can feel
Just talk to me and our wounds will heal
If I advance will you retreat?
Is there a chance our ends will meet?
Turn on the light that sees into your soul
I’ll hold it tight and we won’t ever let it go
And it feels like my eyes are burning holes right through
Right through your heart
And it feels like it’s hard to touch you and if I do
We are falling apart
Behind your eyes I see your smile
It takes my mind and sets it free for a while
I know it’s hard to show yourself inside out
I know you’re scarred I know that you’ll hear me out

Sleeping Giants
03:08

Boy, they want you to be cool
Too cool for school
Girl, they’ll tell you to grow up
Stop thinking just grow up
We are sleeping giants
And in our dreams we are lions
In the dark you kept our hands and fingers there
You took our crutch and you cut our hair
You kept us there
We are sleeping giants and you think we’re dying
We’re waking up
|

You throw your words on me
Is this the way it’s going to be?
Then show me how to live next to you properly
And you’re building up arches
And I don’t deal in victory marches
We’re just trying to get something done
Empty sounds come from talking heads
And they’re laying themselves down
Shouting victory instead
And the sleeping giants are rolling out of bed
Because the victory you found, that victory is dead
We’re just trying to get something done

Plant A Seed
04:42
|

|
I never knew what living was
Until I found you, now I live because
You told me I’m wrong, and it turns out your right
I’ve looked for truth in other ways
At other times, on other days
But she’s in your face, and she’s in your eyes
Under my skin, and in my heart
I’ll let you in, into the part
That cycles my blood right through my brain
From there you’ll fill my head with light
You show me what is out of sight
You keep me straight, standing tall
We’ll plant a seed, and make a tree out of you and me
We’ll watch it grow, and watch it glow, and light up the sky
When we sing the ground will ring
The voiceless will shout and we’ll hear them out
And when we die, you and I
We’ll smile at our dawn
As our tree carries on

Still The Same
03:22
|
|||
|
Oh the sound
It goes through your ears and right back down to the floor
And your eyes
They will pierce my skin and chill my bones to the core
In my mind
If it turns me on will you still be on my team
And in time
If the music’s gone are we just losing steam?
And the bottom is coming up quick
You’re still the same to me
You can talk up
Or you can talk down to me about my song and heart
It’s still the same
Cause every note and actor has to play its part
And the bottom is coming up quick
You’re still the same to me

Right Away
03:57
|
|||
|
Take your hands up off your face, it’s ok
The bad times are always replaced with a new day
Together we’re unstoppable, what can I say?
Break the silence we will pull in the right way
I love how you look at me, let’s try
I can’t let this go right away
You and I will save the world
And this is how we’ll do it
One song at a time they’ll fall
And we will sing right through it
Falling borders lifting hope for the weary
When I fall you are my rope, and only you can hear me
I love how you look at me, let’s try
I can’t let this go right away

Light
03:48
|
|||
|
The sun behind the trees
Cast a shadow it’s taken me
And I run to the street
Like the tide to the sea
And I can feel you looking at me
And I can see you falling gently
And I’ll cling to the past
Cause it looks as though it’s all I have
With your heart in a glass
Growing old to fast
I said the sky is falling
But I missed the acorns at my feet
And I screamed the wolves are calling
All along it was just me
Shut it down is what they told me
Cause the light you see it cannot last
In the dark you’ll never keep me
A beating heart so bright it lights my path

Last Fight
07:26
|
|||
|
I can’t be any more then I am now
And I can’t see anymore but somehow
I feel alive again now
Every step I take I’m lifting off the ground
A vital check reports that I should have drowned
So let’s make this the last time
That everyone tries to follow
And leave them all behind
For the future state of mind
It’s the resistance that keeps us all in line
In twenty days our memories will be washed ashore
Now the sea, a glass of freedom, calm after the storm
And I’ve never been here before
I’ve never been here until today
I am so certain it’s been our last fight
A constant glow in your eyes will surely be our light
Lead us home little girl, lead us home to our new world

Dented Fingers
04:45
|
|||
|
It’s over now; it’s done
We’ll fall in line with the setting sun
Absent minded is a complicated way to love
Dented fingers, and silence lingers from above
And when it all falls down could you take the lead?
Turn me back around
And place me back down on my knees
Fire night, a shadow casting fright
Overwhelm, a blinding light
A symphony of life, the anthem never dies
And it’s already gone, the story and the home
The shadow overthrown, and we’ll rest easy
Drop us all a line, and take your peace of mind
Cause we’re already there, we already care
Welcome aboard now, to the ship of the know how
Enlightened and alive, the ones who still survive
Lifting up to a higher place
Weathered skin from the wind, that you can taste
The suttle undertone, the fire and the throne
Are never just too late
Happy is the sound of laughing on the ground
After falling on your face
And we’ll rest easy
