Gone For A While 03:23
lyrics
buy track
I'll be home for dinner You'll already be here Cooking meat and potatoes And drinking, so it goes Sit here and hold me Stay and fall asleep Wake up with all the lights on And the night already gone Close our eyes at the same time, I know some day we won't be able But I saw the signs, I thought we'd be fine Close our eyes at the same time, I know some day we won't be able Cross the bridge with me Leave your body and see We can stay and exist far away And together Cross the bridge with me Leave your body and see We can stay and exist far away And forever I'll remember the bridge I'll remember the winter I'll be gone for a while But I'll be home for dinner

Hey Stranger 03:30
lyrics

Hey, stranger, I love you Because I don't know you I can only see you're bright, cause when become casual and your face is so usual I'll lose you Your light flickered out Some days I don't feel like talking I wanna talk to you But not everyone else too So I'll hide my face, make my own space and I'll love you Your light is stronger than mine So turn me on and dim me down, I can blow your fuse Ride the wave, nothing to lose Turn me on, dim me down, I can blow your fuse Ride the wave, nothing to lose Mine's not as bright as yours Go on, tell me you love me and all the things about me That make you feel right Cause when we get physical And it becomes typical, I'll need you I'll have burned out So turn me on, and dim me down I can blow your fuse Ride the wave, nothing to lose Turn me on, dim me down, I can blow your fuse Ride the wave, nothing to lose Hey stranger, come to me Try not to see through me Incandescent, half present Fluorescent, my lament brings me here Stay with me, dear so you can turn me on, and dim me down, I can blow your fuse Ride the wave, nothing to lose Turn me on, and dim me down, I can blow your fuse Ride the wave, nothing to lose Mine's not as bright as yours

Eye Of The Storm 03:39
lyrics
buy track
I want to be a gently flowing stream I'll change the moment and where I need to be The tide is strong and so I must move on... I hope you remember me Every hair, every piece of skin Of who I was, tomorrow will renew And the place from whence I came Remains the same, I look into the great deep blue At the top of the stream the water runs freezing cold At the end it turns into the ocean I am the hail, the rain, and the snow And I go with the flow I am the tide and I retreat at noon And I rise up with the moon I am a storm of the ages I am the dark side, I am the changes I am a storm of the ages With a faze of the moon, I am a monsoon You go out to sea (you'll have to deal with me) I am your friend and (greatest enemy) At the top of the stream, the water runs freezing cold At the end it turns into the ocean

Gemini 04:04
lyrics
buy track
Number 16, you're an ill omen for me I still refuse to be the best so you'll see That I'm less if I let myself win If I let myself win Bat-winged harp, your alter's no match for me I can amaze even you, sometimes myself too 'cause I'm lower than the fire 'neath my feet The fire 'neath my feet So why do I have to change? I'm happy to stay the same That's how the ghosts in my house know my fame And I know everyone of them by name Seven swords in the bedroom, I'm blinded anyway Tell it to me once more, I've opened the door And I'm flooded with the message to go At least the cards say so Number 16 Bat-winged harp 7 swords Hope for the lovers No, I'm not going to change So long I've stayed the same I know all the ghosts and their names I guess I never knew any fame

Throw Away The Key 03:36
lyrics
buy track
Look at your hands, how they're not even yours Yeah this is bad, but believe me I have seen worse You're not the first and you won't be the last To have a drink, everything gets way out of hand Come on man, it's just you and me I know you did it, yeah you did it One of you and I don't care who is gonna pay for this crime All sinners, saints, same place We're gonna throw away the key All you ever had to do is ask Think I can help, but you gotta want me to act I can't prove it but the pieces fit I talk soft and I carry a big, big stick I'm gonna know if you're lying to me I'm gonna walk it back, every last, little mistake Except the one with the alcohol You're trying to smile while you're losing it all You're trying to smile while you're losing it all Come on man, it's just you and me I know you did it, yeah you did it Come on man, who you trying to kid? I know you did it, and I know why One of you and I don't care who is gonna pay for this crime How the truth will set us free, and you will see Everyone does break eventually All the sinners and the saints in the same place And we throw away the key Throw away the key Throw away the key Living the lie
