Wash This All Away
03:50

There’s been a murder today in the streets
Where people shake hands and families meet
Shots rang out at about 3:30
Preachers hands hang down bloodied and dirty.... bloodied and dirty
He says father what have I done
I didn’t realize my heart was so young
But in his arms she laid and it broke my heart
The look in her eye was like none I’ve seen
From my mind this image can never be cleaned
The truth of my crimes in which I’m held liable
The pages of John stare at me from my bible.... from my bible
He says father what have I done
I didn’t realize my heart was so young
But in his arms she laid and it broke my heart
Wash this all away
All I want is to be saved
Wash this all away
Put the gun to my head and pray
Wash this all away
All I want is to be saved
Wash this all away
Put the gun to my head and
I lay there now my body so still
The three of us to buried on that hill
No Jesus to bid me farewell
For my sins there can be only hell... only hell
He says father what have I done
I didn’t realize my heart was so young
But in his arms she laid and it broke my heart

Fool For You
04:20
|
|||
Sick feeling in my stomach
Sick feeling in my head
Sick feeling on my skin
I think I’m sick again
Tried everything there is
Tried everything there was
Tried everything again
Pills shaped just like us
I want to know where you would like me to go
So you don’t have to feel the way I do
I want to see what you would like me to be
So I don’t have to pretend like a fool...a fool for you
I’m crawling backward now
I’m crawling inside out
I’m crawling into somehow
Changing faith to doubt
You thought me better suited
You thought me manageable
You thought me so excluded
Forget the tangibles...and I still
I want to know where you would like me to go
So you don’t have to feel the way I do
I want to see what you would like me to be
So I don’t have to pretend like a fool...a fool for you
Oh no oh yes a fool for you
oh no oh yes I’m a fool for you
oh no oh yes this fool for you
I want to know where you would like me to go
So you don’t have to feel the way I do
I want to see what you would like me to be
So I don’t have to pretend like a fool...a fool for you
Sick feeling in my stomach
Sick feeling in my head
Sick feeling on my skin
I think I’m sick again

Lyrical Me
02:37
|
|||
Flower print in the summer sun reaching to me
This photograph collected status these memories
Simple words spouted lip faucet kerosine
She’s singing under breath igniting the lyrical me
Where do I go from here
Take my thoughts and steer...
All these things I can be
You always seem to see
Nothing in-between leaves you any doubt
All these things in the fray
Always try to stay
We push them away and figure it out
Few phrases attack me in such contagious fashion
Pull the heart strings release now the agitations
It’s warmth confided into a whispered scream
She’s singing under breath igniting the lyrical me
Where do I go from here
Take my thoughts and steer...
All these things I can be
You always seem to see
Nothing in-between leaves you any doubt
All these things in the fray
Always try to stay
We push them away and figure it out
Short temper followed by pity seeking rage
Read like a novel still writing its first page
These scars and half empty bars tire endlessly
She’s singing under breath igniting the lyrical me
All these things I can be
You always seem to see
Nothing in-between leaves you any doubt
All these things in the fray
Always try to stay
We push them away and figure it out
We figure it out

I Need A Highway
03:39
|
|||
Got everything on the table
Maps keys I’m clearly able
To pick up my pieces and shuffle on
Leaves now just hitting ground
Autumn wind the only sound
Engine starts in reverse drive off for better or worse
I need highway to take me someplace
Where my heart can be true
Here comes my exit to my next resurrection
A song from me to...
And though they’re on the same road
The different person I am has followed
Let me lay down these cards catching you all off guard
The path remains the same
The vision to get there is all that has change
So with these new shoes allow me to introduce
I need highway to take me someplace
Where my heart can be true
Here comes my exit to my next resurrection
A song from me to...
A song from you, a song from me, a song to you, a song to me
I need highway to take me someplace
Where my heart can be true
Here comes my exit to my next resurrection
A song from me to...
Got everything on the table
Maps keys I’m clearly able
To pick up my pieces and shuffle on

Privilege
04:16
|
|||
I stand beside myself
Watching no one else
This history replayed, What can I say?
It took me to find you
To learn what I always knew
This history displayed, What can I say?
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
This is the privilege I get to live with
These safe moments throughout my day
Within this privilege how do I give in
Listen, learn, and foster real change
I stand next to you
In awe of every move
Your history denied, the blissfully blind
It took you to find me
To teach the truth I see
My history in lies, the blissfully blind
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
This is the privilege I get to live with
These safe moments throughout my day
Within this privilege how do I give in
Listen, learn, and foster real change
I seek a world where my daughters can grow
I seek a world where they live and they know
I seek a world where my daughters can grow
It’s the world we give, the world we show
It’s the world we live, the world we show
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
I know nothing of the beauty in your anger
I know nothing....
This is the privilege I get to live with
These safe moments throughout my day
Within this privilege how do I give in
Listen, learn, and foster real change
This is the privilege I get to live with
These safe moments throughout my day
Within this privilege how do I give in
Listen, learn, and foster real change

Static
03:37
|
|||
The cold hand on my shoulder
Those all to familiar words in my ears
The shoving of my dreams seem bolder
Than those fallacy drops you call tears
You tell me to get over it...
Perhaps naivety has had it’s way
This movie like life seems unbefitting
All I long for is place to be safe
In a room where the ceiling forces me to be sitting
And you want, what you want
And you need...
I can tell that this going to be
One of those days for the rest of my life
I can see that going left instead right
Won’t change a damn thing for the rest of my life
The list of my wrongs that you use a banner
Will catch wind and from your pedestal comes the fall
From miles and miles they will come to demand her
Leave me to my secrets and my secrets to their wall
And you want, what you want
And you need...
I can tell that this going to be
One of those days for the rest of my life
I can see that going left instead right
Won’t change a damn thing for the rest of my...
Leave your static in the corridor of your negativity
There is nothing more trying than you trying to live for me...
I can tell that this going to be
One of those days for the rest of my life
I can see that going left instead right
Won’t change a damn thing for the rest of my life

I Wasn’t Built For Love
03:14
|

I wasn’t built for love
I wasn’t built to keep it strong enough
I wasn’t built for very much
I wasn’t built for you
Every chance that I get I prove that its true
I wasn’t built for you
I wasn’t made for this life
I wasn’t made to be alone at night
A couple of heartbeats away from alright
I’m lying in the middle of the road
Straddling yellow seems all that I know
And I’m hoping this next car doesn’t slow
And I won’t lie
I’ve thought about it once or twice
But at that moment I see my mother’s eyes
And your go go go and I’m stay at home
Just because depression takes its ugly hold
But you never ever even pretended to know
And I cannot lie
I’ve thought about it once or twice
But at that moment I saw my mother’s eyes
And I no I cannot lie
I’ve thought about it more than twice
Thank god for my mother’s eyes
I wasn’t built for love
I wasn’t built to keep it strong enough
I wasn’t built for very much
I wasn’t built for you
Every chance that I get I prove that it’s true
I wasn’t built for you
I wasn’t built for love
I wasn’t built to keep it
