Heaven Knows I'm Trying

Heaven knows I’m trying
To be like you
Being good’s a new thing
I never tried to
Haven’t had a drink since
I cannot tell you
How much I love you
Why can’t I tell you
How much I love you?
Why can’t I tell you
How much I love you?

All I Wanted
03:11
|

All I wanted was for you to say
You had nothing better to do
All I wanted was for you to know
That everything I said was true
All I wanted was for you to say
That you had me in mind
All I wanted was for you to know
This was not a waste of time
Like it’s been my whole life
All I wanted was impossible
A way to undo the past
All I wanted was a simple thing
A way that we could make it last
All I wanted was for you know
That I had you in mind
All I wanted was for you to say
This was not a waste of time
Like it’s been my whole life
Feel like it’s been my whole life
Feel like it’s been my whole life
Feel like it’s been my whole life
I want to be where I was - right by your side
The feeling never goes, feeling never goes away

Fall & Be Found
02:47
|

Life, as it seems
Is nothing more than strung together
Nightmares and dreams
A truer world lies just beyond our grasp
I believe
Someday we will be together
There in the clouds
There where the shroud is lifted
Fall and be found
You’re not in this alone
Life, as it seems
Is bigger than the words we use
To say what it means
A picture painted using colors
We’ve never seen
Someday we will be together
There in the clouds
There where the shroud is lifted
Fall and be found
You’re not in this alone

Lifetime of Comedy
05:26
|
|||
In a word
I would say that my life is a liar
In a few
I would say that my life’s not my own
I pretend in a way that I know where I’m going
But I hide in the comfort of things long ago
But if I could see (you never see)
If I could know (you never know)
I wouldn’t waste your time
I’d save you a lifetime of comedy
And if I could see (you never see)
If I could know (you never know)
I wouldn’t waste your time
I’d save you a lifetime of tragedy
In a year
I can feel all my habits are changing
In a few
I may not be the man I am now
I pretend I’m the one doing the rearranging
But the truth is I really don’t quite know how
But if I could see (you never see)
If I could know (you never know)
I wouldn’t waste your time
I’d save you a lifetime of comedy
And if I could see (you never see)
If I could know (you never know)
I wouldn’t waste your time
I’d save you a lifetime of tragedy

Coming Along
05:10
|

Coming along
Coming at last
Coming on strong
Coming on fast
I will not follow
I will not lead
I will not leave you in my shadow
Coming along
Leaving the past
Coming on strong
Nothing will last
I will not follow
I will not lead
I will not leave you in my shadow
Coming along
You will never know
The world my never go
Where you want it
I will not follow
I will not follow
I will not follow
I will not lead
I will not leave you in my shadow
I will not follow
I will not lead
I will not leave you in my shadow

Another crack in the mirror
I remember days when you breathed my name
Another gap in the armor
Remember all the things that fell out of place
I never thought I’d regret it
Never thought you’d come back from the grave
Sometimes I try to forget it
But I could never seem to get away
I could never change your mind
I could never turn back time
If I had never called you
I guess
I never would have changed

Turn Around
02:54
|
|||
I got a number on the wall
If you ever need me
I got a place where we can go
If you want to find me
I will never be the one
To turn around and leave you high
I got a number on the wall
If you ever need me
I got a place where we can go
If you want to find me
I will never be the one
To turn around and leave you high
I will never be the one
To turn around and leave you
Tell me your story
Where to begin
Tell me your secrets
How to get in
I will be there for you
I will be there for you
I will be there for you

I Found A Reason
03:32
|

Close the door
It’s not open anymore
The strength I used to have
I have forgotten
I don’t know
How I ever let it go
I used to think it was all that really mattered
Every day
As I’m walking away
I know the time must come to surrender
Every night
As I watch the fading light
I hear your voice, and I begin to remember
I found a reason
I need to carry through
I found a reason
I just want to be with you
I just want to be with you

Warrior
04:34
|
|||
Bad days
Came and went
But I knew I’d see you again
Walk up like an old friend
You’re always waiting ‘round the bend
I cannot be a warrior for long
Long enough to sing this song
I cannot be the warrior you need
But it’s what I try to be
Wishing hard to see the day
Almost there when I lost my way
Perfect sun, perfect rain
Wash away, wash away
I cannot be a warrior for long
Long enough to sing this song
I cannot be the warrior you need
But it’s what I try to be

Every night when I close my eyes
Dreaming of another place
Seems like everyone’s far away
Drifting into outer space
What if we ever get out of here?
What if we have to return?
Light a fire before we go
Just to find our way again
Every night when I close my eyes
Dreaming of another place
Seems like everyone’s far away
Drifting into outer space
What if we ever get out of here?
What if we have to return?
Light a fire before we go
Just to watch it burn
Again, again, we’re gonna live again
Again again again!
Again, again, we’re gonna live again
Again again again!

Falling Fading
05:26
|
|||
All the races that I ran
All the hopes that I once had
All the selfish dreams
I’m putting away again
Every time that I lied
Every time I made you cry
Every time I said, today would be the last
Run away from me now
Run away from me now
Run away from me now
Can you forgive the man
Who never let you in?
Can you forget the times
I said everything was fine?
All the while I was dead
Or slowly dying
All the while I was trapped, and living inside my head
Run away from me now
Run away from me now
Run away from me now
Falling, fading, lose yourself
Falling, fading, lose yourself
Falling, fading, lose yourself
Falling, fading, lose yourself
Perfect submission
I see with new vision
No longer the needing
