FLYING COLORS LYRICS

1. The Loss Inside

I've hung my mind round every door
Prison silence, poised for war
I lost my way the day you left
And you don't care if I'm alive or dead,
Do ya

I thought I knew, but now I know
We find our love deep in the undertow
We're out to sea like everyone
You were my anchor
That ya cut the rope on

I'm sinking with loss inside
And I cannot escape the great divide
As we drift, through the tide
When your heart cannot belong to anyone
The wreckage I've become

Drownin' in gin, and acid sour
You reach your no go shallow final hour
I can't let go
I can't hold on
You cut me to the quick, girl
And I'm goin' down…

I'm sinking with loss inside
And I cannot escape the great divide
As we drift, through the tide
When your heart cannot belong to anyone
The wreckage I've become

I'm sinking with loss inside
And I cannot escape the great divide
As we die, in the tide
When your heart cannot belong to anyone
The wreckage I've become
Faded and undone
Saved by anyone
After loss

2. More

Give myself away
Freely dis-associate
Climb up mountains of sand
There to find there's holes in my hands

I dream the day
In nights in the fray

Dawn comes gripping tight
Bathed in secret delight

I dream the day
In nights in the fray

I fade away
Into my passion
Nights in the fray
Forever asking… more

I wish you lied to me
Anything but this reality
Still life of clay
From nights in the fray

I fade away
Into my passion
Nights in the fray
Forever asking… more

Poised on a hill
Will you die from your suffering?
Your were born into lies
Deep as rain
There's a kiss
Undespised
And your love is a wish
Let it fly while we swim in the dark

I dream the day
In nights in the fray

I fade away
Into my passion
Nights in the fray
Forever asking… more

3. Cadence

In the wasted wealth of earth
Losing our courage
Where has all the lust of life gone?
Like the sap out of a birch
Cut to discourage
But has someone left the light on?

Is there none to speak or stand?
Where are our fathers?
They left us long ago now

Wasting so much life
The scars they leave behind
But that's not who we are
You're not far

Cadence you're losing time again
You've been left on your own
Cadence dance through the embers and
Every light becomes your start
Cadence it's not far away

In the distance there's a wake
Life giving fortune

There's a voice that leads the way now
The mosaic to create
King or an orphan
As we walk we'll ding our way out

Wasting so much life
The wounds from deep inside
Carving who we are
You're not far

Cadence you're losing time again
You've been left on your own
Cadence dance through the embers and
Every light becomes your start
Cadence it's not far away

Wasting so much life
The wounds from deep inside
Carving who we are
You're not far

Cadence you're losing time again…

4. Guardian

Born, you're the secret safe with me
Your heart is where my head should be
And now I help you cross the line
We drew, once upon a time,
When you were…

Young, as a soul can be
So old, as old as destiny is
Tears were never meant to hold
And now, I must let you go, into your

Future discovery
Every waking moment given to uncover
Raising a perfect dream
Just to let it go and watch
What it comes - guardians

Once, will never be enough
For your heart staring at the sun
Cause it's big as California
From desert deep into the sea,
You're in your…

Future discovery
Every waking moment given to uncover
Raising a perfect dream
Just to let it go and watch
What it comes - guardians

Future discovery
Every waking moment given to uncover
Raising a perfect dream
Just to let it go and watch
What it comes - guardians

Future discovery
Every waking moment given to uncover
Raising a perfect dream
Just to let it go 'cause we're all guardians

5. Last Train Home

Can you imagine we're lovers?
And we've fallen asleep again?
Like a window into someone's
Longing that never ends

Watch it now as it comes through the station
Through every life I've known
I'll take a one-way ticket man,
To a new elevation
I ride the last train home, the last train home

On the way I discover
What I never could understand
Like a child I'm uncovering my worth
In a wonderland

Watch it now as it comes through the station
Through every life I've known
I'll take a one-way ticket man,
To a new elevation
I ride the last train home, the last train home

Through the mist you check your list
Of all the past upon you
Blow a kiss you're not remiss
To throw your love away
While I'm waiting for the day

Heaven's hallowed hunkered heart
Is hoping for a halo
Princess plays her perfect part
And pines for yesterday
While I'm waiting for the day

Stepping on the cold cement
The doors are slowly opening
Waving back, you leave alone
Don't be sad you're going home
Stepping back, you leave alone
Don't be sad you're going home
You're going home
Though the water has covered you
You'll stand and begin again
This is your genesis
Your train to Jerusalem

Watch it now…

6. Geronimo

Night the auburn sky
The stars we see burned up long ago
I have seen the place
We used to know but now it's just a show

All the world's ablaze a maze of chains
We're lost in the sun - Lost in the sun

Owned and aimless - Can I change it ?
Make my break and wake up this silent heart

It's in the wake of the impossible
Out on the edge of unattainable
Enter the night and cry Geronimo

Bite down on the blade
Let's blame it all on our sordid part
Nothing is ok, why even try
Live your, die fast

All these lonely days this maze of chains
We're lost in the sun - Lost in the sun

Owned and aimless - can I change it?
Make by break and wake up this silent heart

It's in the wake of the impossible
Out on the edge of unattainable
Enter the night and cry Geronimo

Look at the night sky
We'll never make it
Impersonal and vast
Without our understanding
We're like a razor
We're cutting through forever
Or maybe nothing
If that's our understanding

Night sky - Don't lie
We cry - To lose the night forever

Night sky - Raise high
Our solemn cry - For one more try

It's in the wake of the impossible…

7. You Are Not Alone

Hurricane impossible
Wake up wading our
When you just want to understand

Drifting through the contracts
Weeping in the fields
The Currents stealing all the past

Through the raging water
In the rain of suffering, we're
In this mess together
Your are not alone
Your are not alone

Destruction is the offering
Wall turn into waste
And there aren't words that can be found

Through the raging water
In the rain of suffering, we're
In this mess together
Your are not alone
Your are not alone

When the ocean leaves you in the desert
Your are not alone
Bury the past and survive
Hold on to what never dies

Through the raging water
In the rain of suffering, we're
Through the raging water
In the rain of suffering, we're
In this mess together
Your are not alone
Your are not alone

8. Love Letter

So you say you're done with me
An nothing's workin' anymore
Won't you stop and walk with me
Instead of walkin' out the door

We could end our story here right now
It's hard to write
When our house is burnin' down

Every time you start to cry
Or say goodbye
It's you and I
'Cuz your are my love letter
Every tear becomes a line
And I write yours as you write mine
Our words align, love letter

It's been rough, you've had enough
I've driven you to memories
Moments came but not enough
To counterweight the drudgery

Waiting for new chapters to appear
The words will come
If we don't end it here

Every time you start to cry
Or say goodbye
It's you and I
'Cuz your are my love letter
Every tear becomes a line
And I write yours as you write mine
Our words align, love letter

There's pages that we can't erase
Phrases that seem out of place
But somehow it will make sense again…
There's poetry in every scar
Becoming part of who we are
Your letter's still what I want to send

Every time you start to cry
Or say goodbye
It's you and I
'Cuz your are my love letter
Every tear becomes a line
And I write yours as you write mine
Our words align, love letter

9. Crawl

We were born under blood built skies
Black and blue in the wraith of the night

Frat gets forced in our tired eyes
Spoon fed war machine
As you walk in this alone
And you come in our own

Stars are fallin' down on you
Stars are fallin' down on you
And it takes you away

Life is tearing up the road
In the season of the torch
All you people come and look upon
The child behind the door
That always longs for more

Stars are fallin' down on you
Stars are fallin' down on you
And it takes you away

You're facing head on into the wind
'N' soon you'll find your way
On your knees to begin
There's beauty found in the fall
When we learn to crawl
Learn to crawl

Born into the gilded cage
Tied in ribbons and awards
It cam upon us deep as frost
No one saw, but we were warned
Never knowing, trapped and torn

You're facing head on into the wind…

You with your broken heart
There's a rise for your requiem
Come down and crawl again and be born

Come down and crawl again and be born

Stars are fallin' down on you
Stars are fallin' down on you
And it takes you away

The higher way is down
There is a deeper life that's yet to be found
More than what we have known…

You're facing head on into the wind…
