Roots (2024)

1. Every Second

The light it dies out it pulls me in
I feel the comfort of your needs
I see you watch out watch over them
I want to rest and never leave
From the outside I’m looking in
I wanna take your weight away
Right behind you we’re closing in
With every word I wish to say

Your lights reflecting sunbeams bursting love through space
And every second of my time is yours to take

Like a rare bird seldom seen
I feel you staying close to me
I’m never outside you let me in
And make it easy just to be

Your lights reflecting sunbeams bursting love through space
And every second of my life is yours to take

Every second taken lifelong conversations with every step we’re closing in
Every second taken lifelong conversations with every step we’re closing in
Every second taken lifelong conversations with every step we’re closing in
Every second taken lifelong conversations with every step we’re closing in

2. The Roots

Ever wondered how something
Like you could grow out from nothing at all, and without them
You’d be stuck within
You’d be stale and wondering nothing at all, without them

The hands that pulls you down
Are the same that lift you up

It is the roots that builds you up, that drags you down, to the ground
It is the roots, that keeps you strong, see right from wrong
For the better or for worse

Ever wondered how someone
As beautiful as you can grow from a seed in the ground, it’s amazing
You’ll grow up and see that
You look a lot like me and you will wonder of all, just like I do

The hands that pulls us down
Are the same that lift us up

It is the roots that builds you up, that drags you down, to the ground
It is the roots, that keeps you strong, see right from wrong
For better or for worse
For better or for worse
For better or for worse
For better or for worse
For better or for worse

3. Time Follows People Follows Time

You don’t know what life it has in store for sure
Nothing’s given nothing’s set in stone I know

Strolling side by side, through the woods through the times
People do pass by, through the woods and through time

Time follows people follows time
Time follows people follows time

Crossing borders over waters and so life flows
Life in circles heartbeats beating on like drums

Strolling side by side, through the woods through the times
People do pass by, through the woods and through time
Mmmm mmm mmm
People do pass by through the woods and through time

Time follows people follows time
Time follows people follows time
Time follows people follows time
Time follows people follows time

4. Starlight

Underneath the starlight everything seems frail
I cannot pretend I’m letting it go
Over hills and under oceans to no avail
I cannot pretend I’m letting it go
Letting it go

Down by the water where the winds will take me near
Rise out from under where it left me without fear
And I won’t back down from this again
No I won’t back down I won’t pretend

Underneath the pale white glow I’m almost there
I cannot pretend I’m letting it go
Open up my arms and reach into the air
I cannot pretend I’m letting it go
Letting it go

Down by the water where the winds will take me near
Rise out from under where it left me without fear
And I won’t back down from this again
No I won’t back down I won’t pretend
I won’t back down from this again
No I won’t back down I won’t pretend

5. What Defines You

When asked you cannot tell me who you are
Like everybody else you’ve gone too far
When asked you only tell me what you do
It seems to me you’re hardly pulling through
It seems to me you don’t know if it’s true

Is that what defines you?
What defines you
Is that what defines you?
In a world full of light and of beauty that’s all that you know
And that’s what defines you
What defines you
What defines you

A basic trade for everyone to know
A basic trade is all you every show
Tell me what you’re really all about
Don’t tell me what you do just leave it out
I only wish to know you there’s no doubt

Is that what defines you?
What defines you
Is that what defines you?
In a world full of light and of beauty that’s all that you know
And that’s what defines you
What defines you
What defines you

6. A Closed Book – Wide Open

Under the blue sky days rolling high
Memories of highlights and nights drifting by
Under the clouds
We figured it out
The design the purpose

Beneath the surface I’m really nervous ‘cause life isn’t easy on me I think

We are like magnets
Waves on the ocean
We are the heartbeat
The rhythm
We are the madness
We are devotion
We are the closed book
Wide open

7. Everyone and Everything

I’m on a road to nowhere going fast
I try to cover up from first to last
And all this time I thought of it the life that long have passed
I have a fear of never getting it back

But in the darkest night I come to see
A wave that is rolling over me
A sound I never thought I’d hear, that I would never feel
The words from you are ringing clear to me

It is all I want it is all I need
We are everyone and we are everything
It is certain now there is time to heal
We are everyone and we are everything
And all these things about it makes it real

When I can’t really quite explain
The warmth that is flowing in my veins
I brace myself and try to disregard the fear of pain
This life we have is all we will obtain

It is all I want it is all I need
We are everyone and we are everything
It is certain now there is time to heal
We are everyone and we are everything
It is all I want it is all I need
We are everyone and we are everything
It is certain now there is time to heal
We are everyone and we are everything
And all these things about it makes me it real

8. I Want You

I want you baby, I want you baby again
I want to feel your touch all over my skin
Cause you are lonely, you’re lonely just like me
I’ll take you heartbreak and hurt and throw it all away
I’ll make your problems a distant memory

Cause you are the best I see, You see the best in me and
You are the purest soul, when you are chasing dreams
You are the one I see, You’ll find the rest with me and
You are the purest soul, now we are chasing dreams

I can’t control it, but I’ll embrace it again
Time will heal all wounds for us in the end
Cause you are hopeful you’re hopeful just like me
I’ll give you all you wish for all You’ve never seen
I’ll make your worries a fading memory

You are the best I see
You get the best of me
You are the best I see
You get the best of me

9. The Queen

A queen in her chair brushing her hair I’m on the stairs feeling prepared
I’m moving in the touch of her skin a moment I’m proud to be in
Life has never felt so real

Crossing new horizons rising like a typhoon
Life is like a hurricane traveling in space
Climbing highest mountains swimming in the fountains
Boy and girl rule the world traveling in space
In space

A king on his horse with fingers crossed he settles for nothing but the best
Some stories never grow old they deserve to be told just let it unfold
Life has never felt so real

Crossing new horizons rising like a typhoon
Life is like a hurricane traveling in space
Climbing highest mountains swimming in the fountains
Boy and girl rule the world traveling in space
In space in space in space

Travel in space in space we travel
Travel in space in space we travel

10. Astronaut

I don’t want to be where everybody else has been
I don’t really like to lose control
I don’t want to see what everybody else has seen
I don’t really care for this at all

I just really want to be an astronaut
Fly with everything I’ve got float away
See the stars on the horizon
I think that you would like them drift away

Every day I wake up and everything looks just the same
I can’t really see how we’re moving on
Walking down that same old path I’m use to once again
It won’t be so long before we’re gone

I just really want to be an astronaut
Fly with everything I’ve got float away
See the stars on the horizon
I think that you would like them drift away

I just really want to be an astronaut
Fly with everything I’ve got float away
See that star on the horizon
I think that you would like it drift away

I really want to be an astronaut
Fly with everything float away again
I really want to be an astronaut
Fly with everything float away again
I really want to be an astronaut
Fly with everything float away again and again and again

Comes In Waves (2020)

1. Mind Crashing

When I’m ok
I think it’s a lie
The mess in my head
Is hard to deny

It’s getting harder every time
When it hits it all turns black
It’s getting way out of line
I feel like there’s no turning back

Mind crashing and I disappear
Mind crashing when I drown in fear

It comes in waves
It takes a toll
Just settle down
Don’t let it grow

It’s getting harder every time
When it hits it all turns black
It’s getting way out of line
I feel like there’s no turning back

Mind crashing and I disappear
Mind crashing when I drown in fear

2. Stagnant

Can you show me where to stand
Can you hold me where I am
You will make me change my plans
Torn to pieces on demand

Once I knew you once I fell
Pierced right through me uncompelled
All of me know you so well
Isolation in my shell

I got lost along the way
Searching for a brighter place
I get lost now every day
But nothing keeps me here
You just keep me stagnant again

I admit you taught me well
I do know you break me still
Wrapped in plastic here’s my hell
Hard to leave you when I’m ill

I got lost along the way
Looking for a brighter place
I get lost now every day
And you just keep me here
You will keep me stagnant again

3. Get Me Out Of Here

This is how I feel
And I don’t say a word about it
Doesn’t it seem real
When I should not complain, but grab it tight and hold it

I’d rather not talk about it
Just get me out of here, get me out of here
I probably don’t deserve it
If I could disappear, just get me out of here

Can it hold me down
When I don’t even talk about it
I open up my mouth
But no words come out, not even a whisper

I’d rather not talk about it
Just get me out of here, get me out of here
I know that I don’t deserve it
If I could disappear, get me out of here

4. Slow Down

It’s a trap, I can feel it coming back
It’s a glide, down the way I always crash
Did you see me or not
Did you see where I came from

Slow down, help me out
Can’t you see I’m losing it all right now
It makes no sense at all
Slow down, look around
I’ve had enough of this and I can’t follow
Or figure out
Just who you are

It’s a trap, I can’t feel any other way
It’s a wrap, I am done with this for good
And if I wanna keep up with you I get in line
If I wanna be something to you just get in line

Slow down, help me out
Can’t you see I’m losing it all right now
It makes no sense at all
Slow down, look around
I’ve had enough of this and I can’t follow
Or figure out
Just who you are
Or where you stand
Who you are
Where you stand

I won’t give up right now cause I’m not defeated yet
I won’t give up just now I’m not defeated yet

Slow down, help me out
Slow down, look around
Help me out
Look around

5. Out of Sight, Out of Mind

I’ve been wondering for so long
Where to go, where to start and where to run
I’ve been hiding in the dark
I’ve been looking for a spark
I haven’t found the place for me to settle down

Did I ever wonder at all
Did I really cause the fall
Did I ever wonder how it started

Bye, bye out of sight, out of mind that is how it goes, I’m on my own
Bye, bye it’s all right, I’ll be fine that is how it goes, I’m on my own

I’ve been searching for so long
How to reach for the sky and stay calm
I’ve been trying to decide
Is it worth it to comply
I haven’t found that place for me to settle down

Did I ever wonder at all
Did I really cause the fall
Did I ever wonder how it started

Bye, bye out of sight, out of mind that is how it goes, I’m on my own
Bye, bye it’s all right, I’ll be fine that is how it goes, I’m on my own
Bye, bye out of sight, out of mind
Bye, bye it’s all right, I’ll be fine

6. All I Ask Of You

Stay here for a while
I try to crack a little smile
It’s all I ask of you
Lead me on to something new
Every time I’m failing, I think about the reasons
To stay here for a while
And learn how to really smile
You can help me through
It’s all I ask of you

7. Promise

All of this I longed for is gone by now
Guess I’m holding on tie it to the ground
Grab it tight I’ll loose it anyhow
Yes I’m rolling out take another round

All these years have passed, did you notice?
I don’t know but I will keep my promise
Passing by so fast, did you enjoy it?
I don’t know but I will try to make it

Searching for a way to make it out
When I’m going back I start to tear it down
Seems just right when I can hear your sound
If I’m holding on I will stand my ground

All these years have passed, did you notice?
I don’t know but I will keep my promise
Passing by so fast, did you enjoy it?
I don’t know but I will try to make it

I will keep my promise
I will keep my promise
I will keep my promise

8. How Does It Feel?

Nothing on my mind
Feels like killing time
But I’m alright

I cannot deny
The days are passing by
And I feel fine

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be young and so real

Seconds feels like days
Times just flies away
But I don’t mind
Slowly growing
Into someone new

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be young and so real

How does it feel?
To have this ideal
It’s like standing on heels
It’s spinning wheels

How does it feel?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?

9. Ride It Out

Teach me to settle down
Show me another ground
Help me to turn around
And I will ride it out

Here is all I see
Time is chasing me
All in a different field
And I will ride it out

I’m never going to be the one who will let you down, let you down
I’m always spinning out of course turning all around, all around

Teach me to misbehave
Give me a little break
Gain what I wanna take
And I will ride it out

Only to make me move
Here’s what I have to choose
Nothing I have to prove
I will ride it out

I’m never going to be the one who will let you down, let you down
I’m always spinning out of course turning all around, all around

10. Down and down

Take a note out from these greetings, sidetrack, feelings, and somewhere is you
Making trouble with these meanings, always, peeling, layers of truth

I am here to let you in
I am here to shout it loud
If you want to ride it down and down and down it goes
Can we only just pretend
That we couldn’t work it out
When you come around just ride it down and down

Take a step beyond the notion, of everyone, cruising, and all is for good
Point it out and grab the ceiling, sidetrack, feelings, now I see what is you

11. Cynical

I don’t know how it all began, or how it stops
I don’t know how I’m getting there, or growing up
But it’s all so unpredictable
And I’m getting way too cynical for this to stop

I don’t know why it’s different, or how it grows
I don’t know why I’m looking out, or if it shows
But it’s all so very typical
Have I always been this cynical, it needs to stop

I hear the call, when I see you there
I know that I don’t have to choose, I can go and follow you
Hold you near, when you care

I don’t know how it all began, where it’s from
I don’t know why it’s arrogant, why I feel numb
But it’s only as reliable
As I can be convincible, or else it stops

I hear the call, when I see you there
I know that I don’t have to choose, I can go and follow you
Hold you near, as you care
I hear the call, and I see you there
I know that I don’t have to choose, I can go and follow you
Hold you near, as you care

12. The Train

Getting on the train
Taking me back home
The moon is out tonight
Shows me where to go
I wanted this for so long
Was searching for some time
Getting off the train
Finally arrived

Tell me if my heart is beating faster
I don’t know, I don’t

I went off the rails
With nowhere left to go
Took it out on you
And everyone I know
But nothing seems to be
Forever cast in stone
Getting off the train
Now I’m coming home

Tell me if my heart is beating faster
I don’t know
Tell me are we here forever after
I don’t know, I don’t

Off To Save The World (2018)

1. Fit

Everyone wants to be
Where everyone else fits in
I’m drifting sideways, but I won’t show

Seeking the hardest dreams
Sliding away from me
I’m waiting here when, I can’t let go

You are the one to see
The feeling that rides with me
I won’t let anybody else in
Biding my time, then I win

Everyone wants to be
What everyone wants to seee
I feel no pressure
As I let go

You are the one to see
The feeling that rides with me
I won’t let anybody else in
Biding my time
And if you see right through
All of this mess I do
I can protect you too
When I’m ready for you

2. Off To Save The World

I fail to see
The lines in me
I tear it down when I fall
I change to be
What I think you need
Still I fail when I fall
And then I crawl

You don’t want this
You don’t need this
You can’t take it all away with you
You don’t want this

I’m off to save The World
It could’ve been, could’ve been nice
To lead you on
I’m off to change it all
It could’ve been, could’ve been love
That we found

And honestly
Forgot just how it feel
To stir it up and lay you down
I need to be
Bigger, better still
So I can see how it turns out

I’m off to save The World
It could’ve been, could’ve been nice
To lead you on
I’m off to change it all
It could’ve been, could’ve been love
That we found

I’m off to save The World
I could’ve been, should’ve been nice
To lead you on
I’m off to change it all
It could’ve been, should’ve been love
That we found

I fail to see
The lines in me
I tear it down and then I fall

3. Straight No Chaser

It’s getting harder now for me to find the time, to I don’t mind, I don’t mind
Getting harder here to find some space around, ‘cause all my life, it’s passing by

It is easy now, give me straight no chaser, I will come around
This is what I’m on, need to drown out all the sounds of everyone

Everybody’s pulling at me from all sides, but I don’t mind, I don’t mind
Taking shortcuts, making things up, doing fine, well I don’t mind, no I don’t mind

It is easy now, give me straight no chaser I will come around
This is what I’m on, need to drown out all the sounds of everyone

You say that I should find a way to use my life
But I would rather surf the echoes of my mind

It’s getting harder now for me to find the time, to I don’t mind, I don’t mind
Getting harder here to find some space around, ‘cause all my life, it’s passing by

It is easy now, give me straight no chaser I will come around
This is what I’m on, need to drown out all the sounds of everyone
It is easy now, give me straight no chaser I will come around
This is what I’m on, need to drown out all the sounds of everyone

4. Coming Home

I’m weary and I’m tired
And I’m slowly, slowly running out of fire
I think I’m down way down to the wire
I need something, anything to take me higher

Can I feel the trust- can I be enough?
Feel the wanderlust transpire
If you take it all away
We are just the same
Playing in this game

You are not alone
We are coming home

I’ve always been, I’ve always been a fighter
These bones of mine, won’t ever retire
This road I’ve traveled has suddenly expired
I am ready, ready to inspire

Can I feel the trust- can I be enough?
Feel the wanderlust transpire
If you take it all away
We are just the same
Playing in this game

You are not alone
We are coming home

Can I feel the trust- can I be enough?
Feel the wanderlust transpire
If you take it all away
We are just the same
Playing in this game

You are not alone
We are coming home

5. If I Should Go

If I should go where ever you are would you let me in?
If I could hold on to the spark now just pretend
I wanna take all I have I need everything
I wanna leave all behind and then start again

Nobody said this would be an easy road
So many signs along the way that told me no
Falling apart from the start never letting go
Guess I forgot who I am what I’m fighting for

I’ll be waiting
Do You feel the way I feel
Or have I gone too far
To try and mend this broken heart

I wanna take all I have, I need everything
I want to leave all behind, and start again

I’ll be waiting
Do You see the way I feel
Or have I gone too far
To try and mend this broken heart

6. Miles Apart

It takes a special kind, to get through to you
I’ve tried to make it right, but only you can paint your truth

It could be easy love, we could work it through
But you don’t realize that all I do, is meant for you

Come with me, take my hand, let us leave, go back again

I’m lying next to you, feels like we’re miles apart
I know you feel it too, it shouldn’t be this hard
Am I a coward, afraid to break your heart
Miles apart

I hear you words and lies, they all pass right through
But you don’t see so far, cause all you do is paint your youth

Come with me, take my hand, let us leave, go back again
Come with me, take a stand, let us leave, and start again

I’m lying next to you, feels like we’re miles apart
I know you feel it too, it shouldn’t be this hard
Am I a coward, afraid to break your heart
Miles apart

But I’m still here with you, refuse to give it up
I know you’re fighting too, it shouldn’t be this hard
Are we to stubborn, You know it breaks my heart
We’re miles apart

7. Ordinary Greed

If you’re wanting to be free, then you should buy a new one
You’re a special kind of breed, You know you need a new one

Pick you up when you are down, get in line and you’ll be happy
Everybody’s doing it now, can’t you see them laughing

There’s something in this wilderness
That’ll break you if you let it
And broken is all you’ll get
You want more, but you need less
And soon you will regret, walking in the wilderness

I was just like you, I was just a number
Easily confused, searching for my wonder

There’s something in this wilderness
That’ll break you if you let it
And broken is all you’ll get
You want more, but you need less
And soon you will regret, walking in the wilderness

Looking for a breakthrough, trying to find what’s real
Everyone will hate you, if you break the deal
This ordinary greed, is a temporary need
I wish that you could see

There’s something in this wilderness
That’ll break you if you let it
And broken is all you’ll get
You want more, but you need less
And soon you will regret, walking in the wilderness
Something more, something else
It will break you if you let it
And broken is all you’ll get
You want more, but you need less
And soon you will regret, walking in the wilderness

8. La-da-da

By your side, where we all wanna be
Chasing dreams, when they are calling me
Side by side, we have got all we need
I just won’t let you down

In your eyes, I can see everything
All I need, I can now find within in
Naked dreams, all of a different kind
I just won’t bring you down

And you are in everything I see
It’s burning holes in me
And that’s all it takes
I just won’t bring you down

All the while, this is all I can be
By your side, when you are calling me
Burning fire, we have got all we need
I just won’t let you down

And you are in everything I see
It’s burning holes in me
And that’s all it takes
I just won’t bring you down

La-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da
I just won’t bring you down
No I just won’t let you down

9. Highest Peak

I find you here again
Using all your latest tricks to try and play pretend
So hard to comprehend
Why you always end up in a place you can’t forget
Oh well, please tell

Descent from the highest peak
Let go of all you know
Attend to your vivid dreams
Decide where you should go
Decide where you should go

You find me in the end
Losing all the usual tricks you must now forget
You’re starting to give in
And hopefully you understand and find a way again
Oh well, how swell

Descent from the highest peak
Let go of all you know
Attend to your vivid dreams
Decide where you should go
Decide where you should go

10. Out In Space And In Between

The silence is strongest in the morning, when the moon and sun is turning
Far away in the horizon, a sea of red is Burning

Out in the open I’m strolling, holding on to this moment
The Echoes of wind is calming, peaceful is the sound of morning

This is where I like to be

Slowly the day grows older, standing shoulder to shoulder
Leaning towards the night shift, colours are fading pure bliss

This is where I like to be
This is where I’m feeling free

The silence is violent in the night time, but this is when it feels right

This is where I like to be
This is where I’m feeling free
Out in space and in between

Strings & Feathers (2016)

1. A Good Start

A good start, someone wants to see you
Right now, waiting here just to meet you
But you would rather be alone, and you don’t really care at all, Oh now do you?
A good start, someone wants to greet you

It’s just a faster, fleeing moment in time
It’s just a passing feeling to stay in line
It is a fantasy, for you to see, how life will be here for you now

A brave heart, see that smile, let me hear you
Right now, you will have to stay put
But you will never be alone, and you will never be at home, it will be good
A great start, here are more who will meet you

It’s just a faster, fleeing moment in time
It’s just a passing feeling to stay in line
It is a fantasy, for you to see, how life will be here for you now

2. Slide

Hold my breath, look between the spaces
To me you’ve all been worthless, we should not regress

See the sky is on fire in the night
Don’t let go of me if I should slide

Isn’t it something, something worth fighting for
Isn’t it one thing, bigger that we all adore
Could’ve been something, what are we waiting for
Isn’t it one thing everybody needs, so

Count to ten, and hold it in for ages
It all seems so pointless, but I will not regret

See the sky is on fire in the night
Don’t let go of me if I should slide

Isn’t it something, something worth fighting for
Isn’t it one thing, bigger that we all adore
It could’ve been something, now what are we waiting for
Isn’t one thing everybody needs so

I grind the gears, and I
Seek my peers, when I
Try to push you all
To ride the avalanche, riding the avalanche

Isn’t it something, something worth fighting for
Isn’t it one thing, bigger that we all adore
It could’ve been something, now what are we waiting for
This is the one thing everybody needs

Hold my breath, lost between the spaces

3. Pretty

Pretty lies in your smile, pretty tears when they’re falling
Pretty eyes for a while, pretty sad when you’re crawling again

‘Cause nobody will sing or dance tonight
Nobody will get just what they wanted
Everyone will soon begin to fight, falling in the end

Steady now in a line, settle down keep the focus
Rattle ‘round all the time, when they all think they know us

Nobody will sing or dance tonight
Nobody will get just what they wanted
Everyone will soon begin to fight, falling in the end
Well nobody will sing or dance tonight
Nobody will get just what they wanted
Everyone will soon begin to fight, falling in the end

I said I’m sorry now, how useful it could be
I take a look around, and wonder if it’s me
We all could use your mood, you see it’s not that bad
I often think of you, of all the times we had

4. 40 Nights

40 nights, 40 nights and still I wonder
If you’re alright, where you’re at, where did you go
Trash the light, here I sit and still I ponder
If You’d be kind, kind enough to lead me on

See the traces, feel so powerless
I’m on the edge again

You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind

I dread the time, when it feels like I’m an island
I can’t define, what it is I’m looking for
Left to find an all consuming state of nothing
I can’t decide if I just should let it go

Made for changes, I feel so powerless
On the edge again

You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
In my mind

You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures in my mind
You can’t change the pictures
You can’t change the pictures
You can’t change the pictures
And I can’t figure out what’s on your mind

5. Out Of The Way

I’m watching all the fireworks, leave this behind
Sounds of a passing life, that I can lay down
Changes in a heartbeat, takes away my pride
And everyone else is wrong, I will confide

You couldn’t keep me away, You know that You want it, and You need it
Hey pretty please wont You stay, I know We are lost here, and I need it
Oh and then again, then again I’m out of the way

Sing your delusions, sing ‘em loud and clear
See all this ground we’ve crossed, we should be near
Tell me all your worries, tell me all your lies
And I sure will guide You on, and You will abide

You couldn’t keep me away, You know that You want it, and You need it
Hey pretty please wont You stay, I know We are lost here, and I need it
But then again, then again I’m out of the way

6. Strings & Feathers

This time is all we have together
This time we need to make it good
Through rainy days and stormy weather
We brush it of just like we should

Would you tell me, if I was right, I’ll be waiting here for You
Try to show You something, close to your design, I don’t know what I should do

This time is all we have together
This time we need to make it through
Separated strings and feathers
Will pave the way for very few

Would you tell me, if I was right, I’ll be waiting here for You
Try to show You something, close to your design, I don’t know what I should do

Will you tell me, if I am right, I am waiting here for You
Try to show You something, close to your design, but I don’t know what I can do
Will you tell me, if I am right, I am waiting here for You
Try to show You something, close to your design, but I don’t know what I can do

7. I Hear, I Hear

It’s hard to let them in, I feel so small
Don’t wanna be so thin, I feel it all

I hear them all, I hear the words, but I cannot take them in
I hear the call, for all it’s worth, yet I cannot take them in

All alone again, I seek it out
How is this my friend, We’re all in doubt

I hear them all, I hear the words, but I cannot take them in
I hear the call, for all it’s worth, yet I cannot take them in

Break right out of line
Take all I wanted
Change my view on time
Take what is coming on

I hear them all, I hear the words, but I cannot take them in
I hear the call, for all it’s worth, yet I cannot take them in
I hear You all, I hear your words but I cannot take them in

8. Tumbling

There must be a place out of the water, there must be another place within
To save us all from imminent disorder, to save us all from what we do in sin

And I feel like the world comes tumbling down
Yes I feel like we need to move right now

I, fail to see, all of you following me
Free me again, come on let me in, I cannot pretend, that this is OK

There must be a way to my atonement, there must be a path to walk along
If everybody knew that I was chosen, I guess I wouldn’t have to write this song

I feel like the world comes tumbling down
Yes I feel like we need to move right now

I, fail to see, all of you following me
Free me again, come on let me in, I cannot pretend, that this is OK

Oh I feel like the world comes tumbling down
Yes I feel like we need to move right now
Oh I feel like it all comes tumbling down
Yes I feel like I need to go right now

I, fail to see, all of you following me
Free me again, come on let me in, I cannot pretend, that this is OK

9. Reflections Revised

Spent ages in another crowd, how can I pretend
I’m trying just to ride it and see where this will end
I took time to let it all burn out, got astray somehow
I should fight it, not comply with everyone around

I should not pretend, heading for the end

See the light reflect upon the water
Pray that you will never see me drown
Dignify your dreams and all you taught us
Oh, I Hope that I won’t let you down

Indifference is all around, I seek another ground
But you cry when I’m flying and leave you all alone
Fade out in a different sound, order ensures now
I was trying and I found this now it’s all I know

You could never see, the turbulence in me

See the light reflect upon the water
Pray that you will never see me drown
Dignify your dreams and all you taught us
Oh, I Hope that I won’t let you down
Yes, I hope that I will never drown

You should not pretend, this is all you get

See the light reflect upon the water
Pray that you will never see me drown
Dignify your dreams and all you taught us
Oh, I Hope that I won’t let you down

See the light reflect upon the water
Pray that you will never see me drown
Justify your dreams and all you brought us
Oh, I Hope that I won’t let you down
Yes, I hope that I will never drown

10. Where I’m bound

I lay my head, on a pillow made of air
Better yet, I’ll be far away from here

And the world is spinning fast, all around me
The time is running out, where I’m bound

I lay to rest, when everyone is near
And I confess, I find my peace right here

‘Cause the world is spinning fast, all around me
And the time is running out, where I’m bound
Where I’m bound
Where I’m bound
Where I’m bound

Pure Neon (2015)

1. Morning

Please take one moment, come and hear my song
Ride out in the morning, bring your friends along

I’ll take you out and far around
Paint a picture hear my sound
In a heartbeat we’ll go out
And see what we have found

Stand ground with no warning, come and hear me out
Pass out in the morning, the sun will beat us down

I’ll take you out and far around
Paint a picture hear my sound
In a heartbeat we’ll go out
And see what we have found

This could make us free
You just need to see
Sound is all we need

I’ll take you out and far around
Paint a picture hear my sound
In a heartbeat we’ll go out
And see what we have found

2. Here We Stand (and nothing ever changes)

I keep falling for your grace
How could I when you’re so vain
Left behind and we’re to blame
You can never hide your shame

Once again, we’re in trouble where we stand, you have messed it up again
Don’t pretend, you could hardly stay awake, this is one we won’t forget

Just as long as you can spend
It will eat you in the end
Lost for words and I regret
How we gave you everything

Once again, we’re in trouble where we stand, you have messed it up again
Don’t pretend, you could hardly stay awake, this is one we won’t forget

Once again, we’re in trouble where we stand, you have lost it all again
Don’t pretend, you could hardly be OK, you are all we should forget

3. Adamantine

Made a decision to survive
Yes I’ve made a plan on how to stay alive
The time is running and I’m starting to forget
What I gave and will take back again

I’m making trouble on the way to my descent
I see it coming ‘round the bend
I’ll make a fuzz if they will try to take my head
And I pray right until the end

From this delusion I will rise
A feeble threat to try and take my life
I’ll give you nothing I am all that you detest
I turn my back on you again

I’m making trouble on the way to my descent
I see it coming ‘round the bend
I’ll make a fuzz if they will take another step
And I pray right until the end
And I pray right until the end
Yes I pray right until the end

And if I have to I will go on my own
If I need to, I will pierce through
Steal your innocence and put a big mark on you
If I have to, I will kill you
But I’m waiting right until the end

I’m making trouble on the way to my descent
I see it’s coming ‘round the bend
I’ll make a fuzz if they will try to take my head
And I pray right until the end
I’m making trouble on the way to my descent
I see it coming ‘round the bend
I’ll make a fuzz and then I’ll take another hit
And I pray right until the end
And I pray right until the end
I pray right until the end
Yes I pray right until the end

4. Slow

I hear your words though they’re misleading
I set the clocks and I’m beneath this loss
I watch the table as it’s turning
Still I am learning, it’s my concern here

I see you move so mesmerizing
I take my chance to keep you deep in awe
I watch the table as it’s burning
Now I am learning, I’ve got my concerns here

And I feel like letting go
When I move on way to slow
When you tear my heart out
I have no doubt
We should let this go

This is the chase we are consuming
This is the break we all will need from love
For 30 nights I would await it
Still I am chasing, a sense of amazement

And I feel like letting go
When I move on way to slow
When you tear my heart out
I have no doubt
We should let this go
And I feel like letting go
When I move on way to slow
When you tear my heart out
I have no doubt
We should let this go

5. Pure Neon

It’s changing me, all I gave, all I see
For my delight, all I shared, with brown eyes

You’re here to stay, my intent, fades away
We’re clear and gone, all I gave, pure neon

Inside this light, all I treat, with my eyes
I’m fading out, as you laugh, at our house

You’re here to stay, my intent, fades away
We’re clear and gone, all I gave, pure neon
You’re here to stay, and I succeed, if you play
We’re turning on, all I gave, pure neon

The Fear and The Lights (2014)

1. Death

Taking it in, I take it all at once
I’m a sentimental fool to let you down
Feeling it ache, the fading of my hope
I’m a hypocrite to think I wouldn’t drown

There will be no easy way, just do what I behest
You might take a different path and I’m already dead
When you see what I regret, then you know that I’ll find rest

It’s fading out, the lights I’ve looked upon
In my memory they used to shine so bright
I’m lying down, ready to let go
It’s so simple now and I will close my eyes

There will be no easy way, just do what I behest
You might take a different path and I’m already dead
When you see what I regret, then you know that I’ll find rest

Taking it in, I’m ready to let go

2. All Too Hard

I let it out
I take it in and see what you hide
What is on the bright side
I’d make it right
If I could just achieve the insight
Take me on a new ride

But it’s all to hard when it’s you
I will never know what to do

I fake it right
I just pretend that everything’s fine
Everything is alright
You’re gonna side
You’re gonna side with all I passed by
Take me on a slow ride

But it’s all to hard when it’s you
I will never know what to do
I am alright now
I take a bow
’Cause it’s all to hard when it’s you

You see this must come to an end
Let’s just stop, don’t pretend

Well it’s all to hard when it’s you
I will never know what to do
I am alright now
I take a bow
’Cause it’s all to hard when it’s you

3. The Fear

The lows, the highs
The tear that will tear down the lines
Resides deep in me
The soul, the growth
The certain distinction of hope
I used to break free

Safe to say I stumble as I walk
Praise from me, was all you ever got

The fear, the lights
The fire that will burn out my eyes
I choose not to see
The pain, the moans
The grieving that now will follow
I know when to leave

Save to say I stutter when I talk
Praise from me, was all you ever got

And bitter lies is what we see
Nothing’s here it’s wounding me
No one cares it’s understood
I feel the lack of feeling good
For what it’s worth I still believe
That we’re ok, we’re all we need
And all I see in my defeat
Won’t be enough to leave
And bitter lies is what we see
Nothing’s here it’s wounding me
No one cares it’s understood
I feel the lack of feeling good
For what it’s worth I still believe
That we’re ok, we’re all we need
And all I see in my defeat
Won’t be enough to leave

4. One Time Offering

It’s right, I see it
I’ll try, to beat it
At night, we taste it
Right now, I need it

You should see this as a one time offering
Not like something that will come again
Think about the dreams you never will forget

I’m right, I know that
It’s fine, to feel it
At times, I lose it
I strive, to choose this

You should see this as a one time offering
Not like something that will come again
Think about the dreams you never will forget
Don’t forget, don’t forget, don’t forget

You should see this as a onetime offering
Not like something that will come again
Think about the dreams you never will forget, don’t forget

5. Days

Making it out, what I must do
Made a plan for every step
Flying around, now I lose
What was I to do again?

I take a glance at all I’ve done
I see there’s not that much to see
I think about what I become
Day slips by for you and me

Seeking it out the change I’m on
Made a plan along the way
Need to fade out, just once more
Still I know where it will lead

I take a glance at all I’ve done
I see there’s not that much to see
I think about what I become
Day slips by for you and me

It’s a blessing in disguise
To know just what I must try
There’s nothing left for me to show
The ways make me petrified
An I will no longer hide
My private addictive ways I hold
Messed up, but healing, it’s on
This time it’s different, I know

6. Sweet Desire

I always thought that I was dignified, where did I go out?
I lost my fire, my sweet desire
Time will come and go, what will I do now, take it further out?
She took my fire, my sweet desire

Give me just one moment far away from this bad omen, where I’m safe
Take me to the ashes of the now forgotten masses, here I stay

This is where I find the biggest lies, how can I decide
If I’m wired, or uninspired
A chance to take another place in line, this is simple now
I need my fire, sweet desire

Give me just one moment far away from this bad omen, where I’m safe
Take me to the ashes of the now forgotten masses, here I stay
Give me just one moment give me just another token, for this place
Take me to the ashes of the devastated classes here I stay, here I stay, stay.

7. Sailing

You take another look at the cards I’ve dealt, at the hands I passed along
You take another glance, and I’m sure that you’ll walk off
You spend another night waiting for the bells, for a sign to move along
You start another fight, and I’m sure you’ll let me go

But I’m sailing, uh I’m sailing, you’re leading me on
Yes I’m sailing, still I’m waiting, you’re leading us on

I feel a brand new hope coming on my way, when I see your rage dissolve
I take a higher road when I see I lose control
You take another swing at the words I gave, when I helped us to move on
I see another task that I need you to resolve

But I’m sailing, uh I’m sailing, you’re leading me on
Yes I’m sailing, still I’m waiting, you’re leading us on

Am I right, am I free, your court is bothering me
It’s all right, all good, I know what I am to do

But I’m sailing, yes I’m sailing, you’re leading me on
Yes I’m sailing, still I’m waiting, you’re leading us on

8. Lights

A distant light
A disappearing light that could be
A scintillated love I held
A taste of life
A taste of all the things that could be
A time to feel the bliss

All alone, I hear the distant voices
Tearing me apart in the night
Time to go, I see the nearing darkness
Now I wait, for the lights

Another sight
Another chance to see what can be
It’s different than the ones I’ve held
I’ve changed my mind
I see the power of what could be
It’s time to feel the bliss

All alone, I hear the distant voices
Tearing me apart in the night
Time to go, I see the nearing darkness
Now I wait, for the lights

A distant light
A disappearing light I could be

9. Nobody Ever Sings

See my eyes
I see for miles
We talk ’till the end, breaking it down again
Tell me why
We all subside
When I linger on, breaking it down again

You’re reading me
Talk is cheap
Now I take a look again
Take me in

Hear me cry
I can’t decide
If I’m on the edge, feeling it all again
But I contrive
And I can’t hide
We talk ’till the end, breaking it down again

I see your eyes
Follow you for miles
Might take, all I ever got
Now I’m at the end

Nobody ever sings like you anymore
Nobody ever sings

10. On The Right Track

I took a turn to be a better man
I’m making up so you should understand
I’m on the right track baby, I’d wish you would jump on
Now there’s a lot of things I’ll have to admit
I know it’s something that I cannot forget
I’m on the right track baby, I need you to come along

I used to find some hope, In all I drank and smoked
Now I need to find that feeling again

With no directions it can be quite hard
To find a way that leads back to the start
I’m on the right track baby, you need to lead me on
I’m more than ready now to take a fight
With all the passing things that took my light
I’m on the right track baby, I want you to take me home

I used to find some hope, in all I drank and smoked
Now I need to find a meaning again

Time will take its toll and I must confess
I’ll never be the one you’d call a success
I’m on the right track baby, and I need you to tell me no
But I believe there is no time for regret
I will move on and fight before I forget
I’m on the right track baby, and I only want to come home

‘Cause I used to find some hope, in all I drank and smoked
I seek to find a sign, to lead me back in line
All is left behind, as I’m smiling again

11. Blank End

I see who you are
I see what you do
No one’s prepared
For what you go through
I made it in time
I did it for you
You know who I am
But I am to lose
Say what you want me to do
Say when you need me to choose
I tell you the lies
So I can break through
I tell it ten times
And hide it from you
You know who I am
And I will stick through
The burden we share
Got nothing to lose
Say what you want me to do
Say when you need me to choose
Say what you want me to do
Say when you need me to choose
I see who you are
I see what you do
No one’s prepared for this

12. What We Endear

He lost when he was broken, a call that is buried
A voice keeps on calling, It’s all that is left here

You’d feel the same, if you were open
You need the fame, reach for the stars

All we are told is, to jump and just do it
Bitterness shows all how you feel, it is now broken
He lost, and I stayed here

You’d feel the same, if you were open
You need the fame, reach for the stars again
Oh what was his name, what did we lose here
Please speak out in vain, reach for the sky

He lost, he was broken
But I, I will stay here
