Echoes 04:25
lyrics
buy track
In another time From another point of view Only you and I And the endless light of June The echoes that ring through the valley The echoes that ring still All I want is to stop choosing Jamie All I want is to know that you’re with me On a morning drive Over to those fields we’d play How you’d come alive How I’d only pray for rain The echoes that ring through the valley The echoes that ring still All I want is to stop choosing Jamie All I want is to know that you’re with me All I want is to stop choosing Jamie All I want is to know that you’re with me I’m a give you roses, I’m a bring you flowers I’m allowed to stay, I’m allowed to stay here All I want is to stop choosing Jamie All I want is to know that you’re with me All I want is to stop choosing Jamie All I want is to know that you’re with me

Help is Needed 03:52
lyrics

Babylon, babylon’s shaking Fire rains upon the ground Babylon, babylon’s begging Save our sons save our daughters People love people love caring Safely while you cut your lawns People I, people I dare you Drop your guns, drop your borders Every War I know, just more more more war Not saying I know, how to make this right Not saying it’s possible I’m saying that we have to try Not saying it won’t hurt, we’re sure to take our beatings Not saying we’re failing I’m just trying to say that help is needed You people love, people love staring So all your eyes upon me now I can guess you’re probably thinking What’s he done, what’s his problem I’ve been on I’ve been on the fence Trying to make a difference I was mistaken dear Change never comes from fear Every War I know…. Not saying I know, how to make this right Not saying it’s possible I’m saying that we have to try Not saying it won’t hurt, we’re sure to take our beatings Not saying we’re failing I’m just trying to say that help is needed

Time Flies 03:48
lyrics

If you really wanna go, what are you waiting for? You say you’re looking for more I’ll show you the keys to all of the doors Pray for you? Aw honey, whatever you want ‘Cause if you really wanna go, really wanna go The shut up and get up and be gone Time has a way, time has a way to weigh down on you, weigh down on you The more you wait, the more you wait, the best of your days will be gone Climb your way, climb your way to the top like a god Time has a way to fly if you don’t Everything you got, everything you want Give it up Time has a way to fly if you don’t give it up Since I was a little boy big dreams of the lights in Carnegie Hall My only toy an affordable American Fender Guitar At 32 I thought I’d be ruling the world But I really don’t know, really don’t where the time has gone Time has a way, time has a way to weigh down on you, weigh down on you The more you wait, the more you wait, the best of your days will be gone Climb your way, climb your way to the top like a god Time has a way to fly if you don’t Everything you got, everything you want Give it up Time has a way to fly if you don’t give it up

Measure Up 03:51
lyrics

His leather coat with worn elbows The hundred stitches mother sewed The window pane Resting place Mother would say say don’t sleep your life away Pen to the paper, next to your trophy wall Brass is a mirror trying to measure up Southern cross hung above Every dream to travel north Built a home with blood and bone The muscles tore his stubborn heart Pen to the paper, next to your trophy wall Brass is a mirror trying to measure up Son to the father , please take this cup We must retire trying to measure up Placing the importance on everything that others say is flawed Find the seed that flowers and every day wake up with a song Pen to the paper, next to your trophy wall Brass is a mirror trying to measure up Son to the father , please take this cup We must retire trying to measure up

Home 04:16

We like to think we’re victims of someone else’s whim The cards are stacked against us when our chips are all in We can make of life what we will The power’s in our hands But it’s hard, oh lord You’re suffering, suffering Your life is waiting while you’re suffering, suffering oh You used to be my confidant, my lover, and best friend When an angry conversation left us for dead You can make of all this what you want I’ll gladly take the blame Because I know, oh lord You’re suffering, suffering Your life is waiting While you’re suffering, suffering Your life is waiting Your eyes are filled with blindness I stand witness To your suffering, suffering suffering I’m coming home before I lose my way I’m coming home You’re suffering, suffering Your life is waiting While you’re suffering, suffering Your life is waiting Your eyes are filled with blindness I stand witness To your suffering, suffering suffering

Meredith Clark 03:32
lyrics

Meredith Clark viper black eyes and ready to chomp into your heart What Meredith wants, Meredith just has to haunt Sick as dog, dressed up like last night Her face washing off in the drool on the pillow With both shoulders bare and puke in hair and by god I’m yours You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful You know that you are You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful But you know that you are Meredith Clark, around her neck she was wearing the marks Of violent sex that she didn’t consent and I was hell bent to find him Out... she showed me the man and before a fortnight I’d blood on my hands at a burial site ‘Cause Meredith Clark’s eyes were controlling my heart You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful You know that you are You’re beautiful, you’re beautiful But you know that you are

Hold You 03:44
lyrics

Knock on my window, surprise to see your old face You have a heart and a smile that I can’t replace I spy something white, your shadow made of light And at this moment… I’d like to hold you I’ll hold you I’d like to hold you But I would never Hold you back The look in your eyes girl, tension within your hands Seems like our time is up Sooner than I had planned Your fingertips touch my lips Slowly away you slip And at this moment… I’d like to hold you And I’ll hold you, and I’ll hold you And I’ll sing you songs, you’ll sing along And I’ll hold you, and I’ll hold you Swing you round and Round and round And I’ll hold you, and I’ll hold you I wake up here to see you’ve gone, I should have known That you’re on your own in your different world I’d like to hold you But I would never hold you back

Slippery Slope 05:30
lyrics

She said “I like you because you’re trouble And anything that feels this good, has got to be trouble” Up and down and round we go the music’s too good to take it slow The heat of your breath and the beat of your heart Beg me to start, you beg me to start Up on the table down on the floor Gimme some more, gimme some more Too easy to fall in love with you Too easy to fall in love with you Too easy to fall in love with you Too easy to fall in love with you Love with you Slippery slope that we go Slippery slope down we fall Up and up but down we go Our houses of cards are ready to fall Prick of your skin and spill of your blood Now wait for the flood, wait for the flood Up on the table down on the floor Gimme some more, gimme some more Too easy to fall in love with you Too easy to fall in love with you Too easy to fall in love with you Too easy to fall in love with you Love with you Slippery slope Slippery slope With no footholds, no footholds Slippery slope
