Let Love Wait 04:24
lyrics
buy track
High tide, but you can’t see eye to eye. It’s a long way down when you’re spinning me around And if the sun shines will you come to me? Pardon my intrusion, when you’re just a mystery. Maybe if I just control the time Spin myself between love and hate Maybe she was never meant to find Maybe if I just let love wait If she’s near me I can’t tell Until she just takes me by the hand But I can’t see now all too well Dreams are all I have again. Tattoo my lips to your iridescent kiss. Strike the match now surrender to your bliss. And if the sun shines will you come to me? Pardon my intrusion, when you’re just a mystery. Let love wait, save it for a gilded day If I let love wait, would you be inclined to stay? Let love wait, just let love wait, save it for another day, just let love wait Let love wait, just let love wait

God Knows 04:20
lyrics
buy track
Pater, Fili, Spiritu Santi I watched you to find you, called you out before we ever began An answer, a rescue, a mystic love like an opening plan That broke myself to find you, now here you are with a dagger in hand I trusted your answer above my own complete design I let go and floated with no regard for letting go of the line Then all at once I faulted, and all at once you were nowhere to find. Where did you go? God knows I tried, we could live another time, God knows its plain as the scar on my face. God knows it’s gone, just the will to be alone. God knows I tried, God knows I tried I busted the reasons, each one makes no sense at all. No timing, no feeling, no sense to spare my pain control. I fell down my own well, and then you poisoned the watering hole. Where did you go?

Let Me Die With A Smile On My Face 03:35
lyrics
buy track
Think of me in a white suit in a blue car In a fancy place with a fancy name That makes you wish you had a better life. Think of me in a jet plane in a fancy chair Journey bound to a place Where the privileged talk with a plum in their mouth. Think of me swimming with dolphins And other fish that don’t want to eat you in a crystal-clear ocean. Think of me laying in a field of azure Next to a girl in a darling dress who apparently finds you interesting. Let me die with a smile on my face. Lai, lai, lai, sounds so right, lai, lai, lai, one last time, Lai, lai, lai, if you don’t mind, just let me, just let me! Think of me saintly, performing miracles in the name of God, Clumsy me! I dropped my pen again. Think of me demure, smartly dressed in night attire. Everybody needs a naughty dress to a saintly name. Let me die with a smile on my face.

What I Said 04:12
lyrics
buy track
I’m caught in the middle of us now. I’m looking at an emptiness. You’re deep within and I’m without. Your heart is an empty space. Seems like I’m stuck here by design. Feels like we’re a world away. Days end and there’s no buying the time. Can’t you find a word to say What I said, what I said. What I said is “you’re the only one that ever really mattered.” When You said, “You don’t know how it feels when I hear you talk that way.” Let’s meet in a place that won’t divide. Somewhere from the rise and fall. Come on, I’ll race you to the finish line. Let’s see if we care at all What I said, what I said.

Fade 04:37
lyrics
buy track
Are you waiting for an invitation or an exit sign the enemy of all we really want seems to be compromise I can’t tell you how it ends (But I won’t stop asking why) we’re embracing the buried secrets And they sustain the fight Takin a dive into madness Lookin for the boat on the shore There’ll always be one more bullet Even if you don’t need it anymore Pining away for yesterday How swiftly we forget Bygone choices, present pain Full of regrets Highway won’t stop moving Wish the wheels would slow Maybe that just means It’s time to go When love comes to find you The fire too soon burns out You’re fueling passion you can’t sustain Nostalgia creeps up Yesterday consumes you Grasping for meaning when everything fades Plunging headlong into madness Wishing for the waves on the beach Sinking into rose coloured glasses Slipping into deep blue reach Are you waiting for an invitation or an exit sign the enemy of all we really want seems to be compromise I can’t tell you how it ends (But I won’t stop asking why) we’re embracing the buried secrets And they sustain the fight Takin a dive into madness Lookin for the boat on the shore There’ll always be one more bullet Even if you don’t need it anymore

Hold Fast 03:35
lyrics
buy track
If there was ever a reason, if one was needed at all I’m standing positioned between the ground and the fall The sound is leavin’ from uneven days The wake of trouble slippin’ further away Whatever chases you down I’m in between you, I’m in between you, I’m in between you. White sails on the sunset, white lines on the sea, Hold fast my horizon, come on now to me
