Chronology

enough tobacco in a cheek will make a fellow start to speak his mind
memories start to unravel like the story of a traveller and his way
i thought i'd never see the light until the darkness satisfied its demands
my heart grew weak and scared because my eyes were unaware of the way
so i began to stray into a place i never meant to go
and as the sun began to rise so did the demise of my heart
a love poured out as water and memories of my father and his words
he said none can control your heart until the day you start to run
and as the city lights fade you'll turn around and wave goodbye
and i'll wonder why you weren't the one
so i fell into the deep as all hope seemed to be lost
my spirit and body shook and rekindled hope to look for a way
a light shone upon my face and i realized my place in this world
and i became awakened like a sudden revelation of truth
oh and someday i'll be where happiness runs as free as the wind
my heart no darkness can control and i'll reap the things i sow
a presence guided composition and gave me a position to stand
and i started to realize there's more to the trials of this life
so joyfully i'll cry, my race has just begun

the sky turns pink as the sun sets in LA
the lights begin to sparkle through the haze
my heart feels light as my eyes glance toward the bay
it seems as if the time has gone away
but when the bright light dies i wonder where it went
and i can't heal my sides from all the wounds they've met
i feel fear grip the skin around my neck
reminding me we all are such a wreck
and i can't speak as my face it feels the burn
you will be the one from whom i'll learn
and when i'm cold and still i'll find comfort in my bed
and your voice it seems to quell the doubts inside my head
in my mind i try to make it through this fight
but i just don't feel alive without you by my side

Pacific Wind
04:23
|
|

silence fills the room like water and i can't speak
my lungs won't let me breath
words are like arrows in my heart
they rip and tear apart
i don't know what to say and i don't know what to do
the pacific wind won't tell me and neither will you
I'm singing sadder songs these days
they fill my head
now there's a lot i want to say
i don't know when
everything is different and everything is so new
theres a vacancy inside me that can only be filled by you
im a vulture
you're my prey
you don't need me
but i want to stay
in this moment i want to pray that you won't leave me
but it doesn't work that way
violence fills my heart
you brush it away
and everything i have feels like a waste
when all the world is gone
my memories fade away
the night welcomes the dawn
you will stay

Between Us
03:35
|
|
||
|
if we just don't think enough
then this won't come in between us
from the looks of it you're alone
but what's alone?
from my house here on my porch ill retrace this to the source
i can't fathom what is worse
you've left me with this curse
i don't want to fight about it now
you've made your point for crying out loud

Never The Same
02:58
|
|

|
it gets so bright in the evening
the lights come on
it's harder on me when you leave me
but go on
and now the stars are all drowned out by the city lights
and you'll never know if you don't ask why
all these things that i feel inside are never the same
