1. Find Me
I don’t presume to know how you feel
What makes you think you’ve got an idea
Of where I’m coming from?
(Why are you doing this to me?)
Peel back the layers
That’s where you’ll find me
(Find me)
Don’t know how much longer
I can put this stage show on for
Peel back the layers
Till there’s nothing left inside
Does it make you feel better
When you put me down
Did you ever think every time you do it?
You crush another piece of me
(Crush another piece of me)
(Crush another piece of you)
That’s where you’ll find me
Don’t know how much longer
I can put this stage show on for
Peel back the layers
Till there’s nothing left inside
When the phone rings out
And there’s no answer at the door
When you’ve pushed to the point that no one calls
That’s where you’ll find me
(Find me)
(There’s nothing left inside)
That’s where you’ll find me
2. 1000 Tears
People are not talking about you
Mixed signals are everywhere
Analyze the situation
Don’t read into what isn’t there
Cry a thousand tears but nothing changes
Everything always stays the same
Fly me away, beyond the sky
Remember me as dreamer
With pessimistic eyes
Wake me from this nightmare
Escape the constant pain
Paranoia overtaking
My mind is draining away
Cry a thousand tears but nothing changes
Everything always stays the same
Fly me away, beyond the sky
Remember me as dreamer
With pessimistic eyes
Suffocating, can’t breathe
There’s no way out for me
Sick of lying and pretending to care
Always offer more but never really there
Cry a thousand tears but nothing changes
Everything always stays the same
Fly me away, beyond the sky
Remember me as dreamer
With pessimistic eyes
Cry a thousand tears...
3. So Near
Coming to the crossroad
Feels like I’ve bee here before
Ducking in and out of shadows
Knocking at death’s door
Let me in
Let me in
Today I was so near
Get so far away
This road is going nowhere
Can I see the way home?
Keep everyone at arm’s length
The door is left wide open
Let me in
Let me in
Today I was so near
Get so far away
Today I was so near
Get so far away
Get so far away
4. Let You Go
When you take me in your arms
I never want to let you go
Run my hands across your chest
Take you to places you have never been
Set you free
Return to me
Now I know you have to go
I won’t try to change your mind
Wallowing, drowning in my sorrow
Broken into pieces
This is real, I hope you know
My best friend, my lover
Don’t want this to be over
Set you free
Return to me
Now I know you have to go
(Never want tom let you go)
I won’t try to change your mind
Our love is inevitable
(Return to me)
You will always be by my side
You will always be by my side
5. Spiral
6. Down
This wall is getting higher
Somehow I’ve gotta pull it down
Before it surrounds me
And everybody’s gone
Some days, can’t eat
Can’t sleep, can’t feel
Don’t wanna face the world
Don’t wanna pretend anymore
When I was down
You picked me up
I was affected
Couldn’t give up
When I was down
Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
Before you deny my right
To breathe the air you breathe
Stripped down to nothing
Still have my pride
You will not break me
I must survive
When I was down
You picked me up
I was affected
Couldn’t give up
When I was down
Look into my eyes
Tell me what you see
Before you deny my right
To breathe the air you breathe
When I was down
You picked me up
I was affected
Couldn’t give up
When I was down
7. Blue Jay
They said I was foolish
The beginning of the end
Life will never be the same
Never know what’s round the bend
But no one realized
How life was going to be
This angel sent from heaven
A precious gift for me
My blue jay, my savior
How thankful I would be
You were brought into my life
Now I can finally see
The bond we have is so strong
Never will it break
My love for you is endless
My heart no longer aches
Your happiness is everything
To me, I hope you know
How proud I am to be the one
To watch you grow
My blue jay, my savior
How thankful I would be
You were brought into my life
Now I can finally see
My blue jay, my savior
How thankful I would be
My blue jay, my savior
How thankful I would be
You were brought into my life
Now I can finally see
My blue jay
8. Taken
Suddenly you left my life
I sat beside you holding your hand
Thinking about the things I’ve done
What could I do to make it better?
Praying to God to give you the strength
To open your eyes just one last time
Before your eternal sleep
So hear me now as I say
I love you, my sadness will stay
Taken before your time
Wasn’t enough to fight anymore
Life would never be the same
There were reasons I never knew why
One last time just open your eyes
But you left before I could say goodbye
So hear me now as I say
I love you, my sadness will stay
Taken before your time
Suddenly you left my life
Your suffering is over
Your pan has ceased
Your soul’s at ease
May you rest in peace
So hear me now as I say
I love you, my sadness will stay
Taken before your time
So hear me now as I say
I love you, my sadness will stay
9. Sheltered
Let it all out
Stop hiding behind the pain
Not the only one who suffers
You don’t have to feel ashamed
Always smiling, never showing
Then world that all was not well
Carry the weight of the world
Upon your shoulders
The years go by so fast
An adult now, no longer looking to blame
Admire you for your courage
For he time that wasted away
Always smiling, never showing
Then world that all was not well
Good times were few and far between
Do you remember anything?
Sheltering the children
From the misery that he might bring
Always smiling, never showing
The early years weren’t so bad
Before the bottle took hold
Destroying everything in it path
Sheltered from the worst of it
Always smiling, never showing
Then world that all was not well
10. Haunted
Haunted by the presence
Of never ending silence
Every mindless thought
Brought closer to the surface
Guilty conscience rises
Revealing its true colours
Guilty conscience rises
Revealing its true colours
Haunted
Always reassuring
Anxiety overflowing
Imaginary feelings
Clarify the truth
Haunted
Guilty conscience rises
Revealing its true colours
Guilty conscience rises
Revealing its true colours
Haunted
11. All Of You
Taken the long road
To find this place
Pass through the doors
To what lies within
Touching, breathe in
Believing
All of you
All of you
Wanting, needing
All of you
Diving into an ocean of sound
Riding the tide of a thousand cries
Falling, breathe in
I’m drowning
All of you
All of you
Wanting, needing
All of you
All of you
Nothing else will do
Can’t you see just
All of you
Touching, breathe in
Feel me, believing
Touching, breathe in
Feel me, believing
Release the anger, all of the pain
Banish the fears, banish all the tears
Watching, hearing
Hearing
All of you
All of you
Wanting, needing
All of you
All of you
Nothing else will do
Can’t you see just
All of you
12. Throwing Stones
Thoughts they linger in my head
Words left unsaid
Fall through blue, into you
The journey started with no end
Step by step yet again
A friendship true, always knew
Throwing stones at the sun
Not this time
Throwing stones at the sun
Look for the signs
Thoughts they echo in my head
Worlds left unsaid
Fall through blue, into you
The journey started with no end
Step by step yet again
A friendship true, always knew
Throwing stones at the sun
Not this time
Throwing stones at the sun
Look for the signs
Another time
Another place
Another time
Another place
Another time
Throwing stones
Another place
At the sun
Another time
Throwing stones
Another place
At the sun
Throwing stones
13. Heart And Soul
Windows to the soul
Eyes that speak to me
Telling of a lonely journey
Restless spirit longing to be free
Windows to the soul
Distant memory
Take me to another place
There is more for you to see
The sacrifice has been made
Suffering through the pain
Everything has a price
And you bleed
Always be
Heart and soul
Heart and soul
My heart and soul
You are my heart and soul
Nothing good comes easily
Two roads diverged
Neither one could offer any certainty
Familiarity or test the unknown
What lies at the end of the road...
