"Course Correction"

A few degrees and I'm lost at sea
None of the world I knew in front of me
Who knew the place a single choice can lead

We're all a bit diseased
We all fall short of glory
But knowing is whole different story

Course correction
Learning perfection
Every day
Stark revisions
Of our decisions
To make a change

We treat life like it's a game
Like we're not scarred and marred and stained
Because it's easier than feeling pain

The roads aren't always clear as day
Sometimes the only way
Is to go back the way that you came

Course correction
Learning perfection
Every day
Stark revisions
Of our decisions
To make a change
Make a change, make a change
Before you drift too far away

"Vertical Lines"

Vertical lines on the horizon
Show me where, where to go
I'm so lost in the crossfire
Of these lights and shadows
Blinded by the things I know

The sky's alive, with watching eyes
See the patterns, read the signs
I want to know why I'm alive
I want to know why I'm alive

Vertical lines etched into stone
How long have we been on this road
Carving days into the pavement
On our own
With nothing concrete to show

The sky's alive, with watching eyes
See the patterns, read the signs
I want to know why I'm alive
I want to know why I'm alive
And I'm captive to these lines

The sky
Towering above me
And I'm only moving horizontally

The sky's alive, with watching eyes
See the patterns, read the signs
I want to know why I'm alive
I want to know why I'm alive
Erase the lines, erase the lines

"Second Time"

Every message
Deleted
I didn't even stop to
Read them
Cause I'm tired
Of your hatred
It isn't true
Just because you say it

So I think that you should
Examine
The words coming out
And what is intended
Cause I fought and
I pretended
Making those negotiations
Oh, just to let it

Go, oh, oh
I tried to make you let it
Go, oh, oh
But you're never gonna let it

You flew off
The handle
And this time doesn't hold
A candle
To the first time
You said it wasn't right
But you're doing the same
And it's still a fight

So how long before this time's the last time
Oh, let it

Go, oh, oh
I tried to make you let it
Go, oh, oh
But you're never gonna let it go

Every option
Exhausted
If there was any hope left
You lost it
You can't burn a bridge and then
Cross it
With tears like a faucet

That you turn on
And you turn off
Like a faucet
You turn it on and off, oh

"Garden For My Soul"

Am I a black mark in your mind
Lying dormant all this time
A stain you can't erase
Cause when I'm gone you're always fine
But when I'm there you tell me I'm
A ray of light you can't replace
Blank stares on every face

Roses in bloom, and I'll be there soon
The world you promised me
A garden for my soul, a place their hate has no control
Please, just promise me

Why did you make me this way
Like I'm always meant to stay
A foot away from any thing
When I'm so desperate to be close
A mile gap I'll never close
A numbing song I choose to sing

Roses in bloom, and I'll be there soon
The world you promised me
A garden for my soul, a place where hate has no control
Please, just promise me

Far away, from all of this
The escape I can't resist
All the pain clenched in these fists
Will fade away

Like roses in bloom, and I'll be there soon
The world you're promising
A garden for my soul, where everything will be made whole
Please, please

"Lullaby"

Welcome to the world
It's a turning, tumultuous place
And you may not know it now
But you're a child of grace

So you cry, cry, to the sky
Not sure what you're crying for
Is it an empty shelf inside
Not knowing, wanting more

As you're wrestling with sleep
Not wanting to become undone
Close your eyes, darling
The next you see will be the sun
Will be the sun

The night is closing in
I know, it's hard to rest
Surrounded by the darkness
The solitude in loneliness

But you're not alone
And you may not know it yet
But you're not alone
Never, never

As you're wrestling with sleep
Not wanting to become undone
Close your eyes, darling
The next you see will be the sun
Will be the sun

Close your eyes
Close your eyes, darling
You're more precious than you know
Close your eyes
Close your eyes, darling
The sun will rise before you know

"Sanctuary"

My eyes are burning
From the pain that I don't feel
Is there anything worth fighting for
Is there anything that's real?

Cause in this life that you've designed
I stick out like a sore thumb
I regrettably embrace
The way that I've become

So show me love
All the places that it's found
Don't come to me
No matter how much I sing out
So if you're with me
If there's reason to this doubt
Then give me sanctuary
God I need it now

I would do anything
To find a place called home
And I see now that I reach out
For temporary thrones

To place myself and my desires
In a place they don't belong
You want to strip it all away from me
To show me that it's wrong

Cause I need your love
All the places that it's found
Don't come to me
No matter how much I sing out
So if you're with me
If there's reason to this doubt
Then give me sanctuary
God I need it now

I'm reaching out for acceptance
I tell myself it's justified
If everyone's desperate for love
Why not accept it where you find
But it's not real
I've taken hold of counterfeit
I've bought and sold my soul away
Will you help me reclaim it?

Cause I need love
You're the one place that it's found
Don't run to me
I'm on my way now
I'm on my way now
On my way now

"Surface Tension"

The push and pull of depth and soul
And surface tension never mentioned
We're both trying, but we're both dying
To be heard in our own words

Meet me, meet me in the middle
Every bit counts, yeah if only a little
I can't stand to stand on the outside any longer

Said I'm discontented and I meant it
Cause all my efforts and endeavors
Are abruptly interrupted
By the roadblock of this small talk

Shouldn't be so hard to open up
We've known each other long enough

Meet me, meet me in the middle
Every bit counts, yeah if only a little
I can't stand to stand on the outside any longer
So could you meet me, meet me in the middle
Even if, if you only care a little
Draw close in the things we know or throw it all away

So if I'm gonna survive
If I'm gonna be alive
Do I settle for less
And give up every stride
For meaning and purpose
Beneath the surface
Of this watered-down life
I swear I'm trying, but nothing ever comes
I swear I'm trying, but nothing ever comes alive

"A Saving Grace"

Blame everyone else and for good reason
Because I used to be myself in a different season
You put me down for everything that I believe in
The same things you say that you believe in

So why
Why the change of pace
You used to be so
Forgiving of mistakes
So why
Why the change of face
When your love could be
A saving grace

Motivate yourself with a bloody blade
It's easy to be king when every soldier is slayed
You'll do what you have to, whatever it takes
A stab in the back is all it ever takes

Why'd you have to change
I have no one, to carry this weight

So why
Why the change of pace
You used to be so
Forgiving of mistakes
So why
Why the change of face
When your love could be
A saving grace
You'd be a saving grace
From the waves
That have carried all your brothers and sisters away
All it takes, all it takes
Is your time spent, instead of saving face
Instead of saving face

You'd be a saving grace
A saving grace
You'd be a saving grace
A saving grace

"Dark Shore"

I'm walking on a dark shore
I'm all right, I don't need to see the light
I feel just fine
Beneath the stars in their distant shine

Echoed voices are calling me
It doesn't have to be heaven, they're angels
They're angels to me

And I'm lost in this moment
Like it's happened before
Maybe that's why so many chase nostalgia
I'll chase the same sensation
Walking down this dark shore

I'm walking down a long beach
That circles back around to my cold feet
With twin paths behind them
The same path that they're going

Don't call me, don't call me
I'm already falling asleep in my desperate dream
You could carry news of a second coming
Just don't wake me

And I'm lost in this moment
Like it's happened before
Maybe that's why so many chase nostalgia
I'll chase the same sensation
With no choice or hesitation
Walking down this dark shore
Walking down my dark shore

"Moving Walkways"

Full scale
Invasion as they fell
The lights grew like a vine
Striking all in their decline
I should have known well
Enough to shield myself
But I relinquished that privilege
When I sold you for a spell

How you gonna go on
When all you have to go on
Is a path spread out in front of you a little at a time
And when you gonna go off
With all you had to go off
You don't want to wait forever, if you only had a sign

Overhead the fire streams
Tread softly for you're crushing all my hopes and dreams
And if the world is really made of more important things
Then tell me what you've found in all your wandering

The planes are shifting as they're sifting through time
With each decision as it's written making different lines

How you gonna go on
When all you have to go on
Is a path spread out in front of you a little at a time
And when you gonna go off
With all you had to go off
You don't want to wait forever, if you only had a sign

On the dotted line, you'll be just fine, you'll be just fine
The chains I unbind, will tie you to another that you can't unwind

How you gonna go on
How you gonna go on
How you gonna go on
Without a path that's clearly drawn

"Sweet Caroline"

I'm sorry
I can't be
The one you want
I'm hoping
You're the only
Chance I've got

Waiting
At the end of
The street for you
Is it ever really change for me
Or does it just change hue

Maybe later on you'll find what you were looking for
Maybe when I'm gone you'll finally hear what you ignored

Waiting
At the ending
To see your face
At the crossing
Where I'm lost in
Your lonely gaze

Is it ever gonna change for me
Will it ever be the way that you see

Maybe later on you'll find what you were looking for
Maybe when I'm gone you'll finally hear what you ignored
I've been waiting all this time

You never really give me the time

Maybe later on you'll find what you were looking for
Maybe when I'm gone you'll finally hear what you ignored
Maybe when I'm gone you'll see
Maybe when I'm gone you'll see

"Nightvision"

There's only so much I can do
So I'll leave the rest up to you
When I can't touch what's in front of me
Believing in what I can reach

And I'm losing the fight to my mind
What I'm seeing, it's leaving me blind
And choosing to keep hope imprisoned
In the furnace of my burning bosom

Why don't you tell me what you were afraid of
All of the effort and none of the pay off
Are you on vacation, awaiting a day off
There's nothing like living like the sun is never gonna come

I'm tired of defending the truth
When it's nothing I could ever prove
I call out in the night for a temporal light
To come down and tell me I'm right

But if faith is a choice when you're down on your knees
An unending choice not to take what you see
Then I've sold my soul for much less
Just fighting for luminescence

Why don't you tell me what you were afraid of
All of the effort and none of the pay off
Are you on vacation, awaiting a day off
There's nothing like living like the sun is never gonna come

Adjust my eyes
Adjust my eyes
Hope is just cinders, burning inside

Why don't you tell me what you were afraid of
All of the effort and none of the pay off
Are you on vacation, awaiting a day off
There's nothing like living like the sun, the sun, the sun
Is never gonna

"Eye Of The Storm"

I woke up last night to find
That yesterday was miles and miles away
I woke up last night, a restless mind
Reminded that I'll find a way

Let your light break through
And maybe I'll find you
My soul is crying out for the truth
Not just any words will do

I woke up last night to finally see
That all of the walls I built were suffocating me
A defensive shell that might as well be
A coffin on its way to the cemetery

Let your light break through
And maybe I'll find you
My soul is crying out for the truth
Not just anything will do

I need a minute
Oh, another minute
To be just fine
I won't admit it
But I feel like giving
Up on life
They say that strength is waiting
On the other side
But it's in the struggle
That I find

Let your light break through
And maybe I'll find you
My soul is crying out for the truth
Not just anything will do

"De"

Oh, it can't be denied
I need to decide
If what you described
Is as I defined

It can't be more clear
The deep end is here
And I deliberated
Deprived for all these years

Of love
Of love
Of love
Of love

Oh, the train's been derailed
Detained all the passengers
Destroyed the evidence
And all of the details

And oh, demons aside
There's vagrants that hide
Inside of all of us
Departing just to find

That love
That love
That love
That love

We'd give it up to find

Love
Love
Love
Love

Deny what you don't recognize
Define it till it's rectified
Describe it to me free of lies
And maybe I'll decide
