Salt of the Earth
03:35
|

First, first to the shore
But last in the sea
Can’t keep up the score
That no one believes
Don’t spend all your words at once
You might need them back
Who’ll knock on the door, to take you at last?
Cold water by my feet
Sun, rise up over me
I long for the verve
And a song I deserve
I’m the salt of, the salt of the earth
Make, make up your mind
And reap what you sow
Take all of my time
It’s easy you know
No river can take you home
When you’re already there
I’ve paid all that I owe
Like smoke in the air
Cold water by my feet
Sun, rise up over me
I long for the verve
And a song I deserve
I’m the salt of, the salt of the earth

Shadow Dress
03:32
|

Come over the mountain and into my blood
Show me the silence, show me the depths of your love
I’ve been stuck in my head, since I opened the door
To the sun in the west, as it settled on watery shores
Well I looked to the east for the break of the day
But all I could see was the shade, as it turned me away
You told me I could take it off
And tie it to a mountaintop
For all to see just what I’m not
For once in my life
I wore it like a sunday dress
Following my every step
Calling every thought in my head, a waste of your time
I woke in the night with a thought of my own
I rolled to my side, and you cut it straight to the bone
We talked through the night as I let you inside
And I saw what I am, for the very first time in my life
You told me I could take it off
And tie it to a mountaintop
For all to see just what I’m not
For once in my life
I wore it like a sunday dress
Following my every step
Calling every thought in my head, a waste of your time
Hold on, just a little longer
Take away my shadow
Run away my shadow
Can’t let you be my shadow all my life
Hold on, just a little longer
You told me I could...

Drifter
04:59
|

There’s a tide inside of me
It lingers in the corners of my silence
When it opens wide I see
How my fingers row me closer to your island
Were you behind the waterfall
Watching closely as I stumble through your features?
I never said I want it all
But still I long to get beyond your shallow beaches
I’ve been waiting for your call
Yes I’m waiting for your call
I say it’s just a game you play
You disappear each time I get a little closer
I don’t belong here anyway
Just want to hear you cry it all out on my shoulder
While I’m waiting for your call
Well I’ve been roaming coast to coast
‘Cause it’s the only road I know
Take me below your undertow, to your heart
Don’t let me burn out in the sand
You be my curse, I’ll be your man
Just want to learn to understand who you are
I’ve been adrift so many days
That I could hardly recollect my broken pieces
So let me make you part of me
And I’ll be part of you so we are always needed
Well I’ve been roaming coast to coast...
There’s a balance between you and me
It’s a challenge so clear to see
What’s right can’t hold what fades so bleak
What’s left will show, in what shapes we seek
A string of thought as I make my way
Just a single caught, held up against the day
Who roams this deep - who grows this high?
Go home and be anyone we like

All We Have Is Time
04:30
|

Here on the top of the world
Between the sun and the leaves and the earth
I’m waiting for the right time to fall in the dirt
And kiss you goodbye
For so long I have planned my escape
To let you in on all of the chances I’ve spend
But every time I’ve crawled up in my own defense
I miss you tonight
I’m waiting for that call of the wild
I don’t want to fall this time
Everything is slowing down
I’m reeling you in
Though we’re close enough to touch
It’s never close enough
Your breath is all I need to come around
Your kiss is like a summerbreeze
Clearer than words
And all I want to do, is lose myself to you
I promise you that all we have is time
You held me close when the hour was late
But in the morning you told me to wait
“I can’t help myself from going a little insane”, is all that I said
I listen to the song of the birds in the trees
They whisper I belong in the turn of the breeze
Or maybe this is just an imaginate dream
Inside of my head
I'm waiting for that call of the wild
I don’t want to fall this time
Wherever I’ll run and hide
I’ll save something for the climb
Everything is slowing down...

Weightless Feathers
03:22
|
|||
Uhh, we’re weightless underneath
You whispered so light on your feet
Never saw what you could see
Time flies nowhere, yet again
It’s changing the touch of your hand
Will we ever stand a chance?
Where did you go
You’re out of my head
Fools in feathers, lying there
Next to each other so close and sealed
No one saw who we became
Lost recordings make their way
Went to the burrows and back
In time, for our legs to find their way
But where did you go
You’re out of my head
How could you know
That I’ll never forget?
Here, you said
As you put a feather in my hand
Feel this when you’re world is sinking through the sand
Uhh, we’re weightless underneath
You whispered so light on your feet
Never saw what you could see
Time flies nowhere, yet again
It’s changing the touch of your hand
Will we ever stand a chance?
Where did you go
You’re out of my head

Song for the Times
03:47
|
|||
A song for the cynic
A song for the critic
What we sing today, they will hear tomorrow
So every kid can play in the world that follows
The past and the future
They dance for the new years
If even night and day can come together
Then maybe there’s a way to make it better
Here’s a song for the times
A song for the power
That grows by the hour
Will history repeat the song of giants
Or will we all believe in one alliance?
If you want to start a fire generations can admire
You’re gonna need a bigger pile
But if no one’s giving in
How can anyone begin making any changes in our time?
So here’s a song for the times
Are we on the way?

Midnight Passing
04:18
|
|||
Wolves are hiding right outside my door
Always hungry for more
They say you can’t hide your palace from the storm
When a fire burns from underneath the floor
But there must be another way
Is what the devil may say
And if you listen too long he’ll settle in your veins
So just open up and step inside the rain
In your eyes
I found what I’ve been trying to hide
You caught me at my darkest time
I’m splitting at the seams
So meet me in the midnight pass
Halfway to the greener grass
Time has come to take the past
And leave it all behind
So meet me in the night
A silence growing slowly through my bones
Until I’m locked in its roam
And every line of whispers turn to stone
Should I pick them up and build myself a home
Tonight
You found what I’ve been trying to hide
You caught me at my darkest time
In the middle of the street
So meet me in the midnight pass
Halfway to the greener grass
Time has come to take the past
And leave it all behind
So meet me in the night
Alone we row
With the undertow
In your eyes
I found what I could never find
You caught me at my darkest time
But this morning is for me

Siberia
04:24
|
|||
At first light I felt something else
As I coiled up around myself
Silent as the hunters breath
And violent as the kill
A ring of smoke has left your lips
Somewhere underneath the stars
But I’m blinded in my search for it
‘Cause I’ve forgotten who you are
I’ve got hundreds of thousands
Thoughts in me howling
Even though you’re clear as Siberia
I’ll never see that far
Well the winter’s bite is deeper now
But it lasts to see me spend
My ours making up for all
I’ll never be again
If I knew a way to separate
What you ever thought of me
From the man who let you get away
I could finally let you be
I’ve got hundreds of thousands
Thoughts in me howling
Even though you’re clear as Siberia
I’ll never see that far
I’ve got hundreds of thousands
Thoughts in me howling
Everytime I tried saying my goodbye
You’d find me and hold so tight
Even though you’re clear as Siberia
I’ll never see that far

Take Me Home
04:14
|
|||
While we lie around here gaping
Like an open pool of wounds
Something is clearly in the making
And it is going to show up soon
Tell me can you see tomorrow?
Did you wake from yesterday?
If I fall, then will you follow
And make the best of me?
And take me home?
Save our brothers and our sisters
From this everlasting flood
Who are we if we don’t listen
To the ashes in our blood?
Is this even my direction?
Have I ever asked for one?
If there’s no divine invention
Then cast a clever passage son
And take me home
Where the valley unfolds and the barriers’ bound to break
Where we bury our ghosts but we carry their time awake
Say you’ll never let go of whatever road you might take
The only mistakes are the ones you’ll never make
And the truth is just a paraphrase
So just take me home today
Where the earth and sky devour
My horizon patiently
I will build myself a tower
For your eyes alone to see
So, when I’m lonely in the morning
But too tired to wake you up
And it feels like I’m still falling
I will hold on to your love
Hold on to your love
Where the valley unfolds...
The only mistake is the one you’ll never make...
Take me home
