1.Come On, Come Out
Come on, come out
The weather is warm
Come on, come out
Said come on, come on
A spot in the shade
Where oranges fall
A spot in the shade
Away from it all
Watching the sky
Watching a painting coming to life
Shaping and shifting
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes by
A blanket unfolds
A blanket tonight
The pieces of gold
They light up your eyes
Now we're alone
Now we're alive
Watching the sky
Watching the painting come to life
Shifting and shaping
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by
Stopping the time
Rushing, waiting
Leave it behind
Shifting and shaping
Keep it inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by
It all goes passing by
It all goes passing by
Watching the sky
Watching a painting coming to life
Shaping and shifting
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes by
Stopping the time
Rushing, waiting
Leave it behind
Shifting and shaping
Keep it inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by
Come on, come out
Come on, come out
2.The Minnow & The Trout
Help me out said the minnow to the trout
I was lost and found myself swimming in your lies
Help me chief
I've got to plans for you and me
I swear upon this riverbed
I'll help you feel young again
Now your every day services
Humming bird
Taking coffee with the incense
Please, I know that we're different
We were both once out in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of
All the same parts
We're not that different after all
Help me out said the eagle to the duck
I've fallen from my nest so high above
Help me fly
I am too afraid try
I'm like a deer in headlights
I'm praying you can set me right
Not your everyday services
Please I know that we're different
We were once out in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of is all the same once
We're not that different after all
We are tied in history
Connected like a family
We are tied in history
Connected like a family
Please, I know that we're different
We were once out in the sea in the beginning
And what we're made of
All the same parts
We're all the same
We're not that different after all
3.Whisper
Running the race
Like a mouse in a cage
Getting nowhere but I'm trying
Forging ahead
But I'm stuck in the bed
That I made so I'm lying
But if you keep real close
Yeah, you stay real close
I will reach you
I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me still
Eager to please,
Trying to be what they need
But I'm so very tired
I've stopped trying to find
Any peace in my mind
Because it tangles the wires
But if you keep real close
Yeah, you stay real close
I will reach you
I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me still
The sound tires on my lips
To fade away into forgetting
I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me
I'm down to a whisper
In a daydream on a hill
Shut down to a whisper
Can you hear me
Can you hear me still
4.You Picked Me
one two three,
counting out the signs we see
the tall buildings
fading in the distance
only dots on a map
four five six
the two of us a perfect fit
you're all mine all mine
and all I can say
is you blow me away
like an apple on a tree
hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
but you picked me
like a shell upon a beach
just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
but you picked me,
yeah you picked me
so softly,
rain against the windows
and the strong coffee
warming up my fingers
in this fisherman's house
you got me,
searched the sand
and climbed the tree
and brought me back down
and all I can say
is you blow me away
like an apple on a tree
hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
but you picked me
like a shell upon a beach
just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
but you picked me, yeah you picked me
like an apple on a tree
hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
but you picked me
like a shell upon a beach
just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
but you picked me,
like an apple on a tree
hiding out behind the leaves
I was difficult to reach
but you picked me
like a shell upon a beach
just another pretty piece
I was difficult to see
but you picked me, yeah you picked me
5.Rangers
The paths have been crossed
It comes and goes and is lost
Melancholy phantoms light of skin
Poison apples falling with the wind
Hear the sigh of the trees
Those who enter here never leave
And the rangers scream out to the cabins
They are the hunted
We are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want to be found
Further in the hole we go
Saddest creatures tugging at our clothes
Cutting through the twilight, sword in hand
Strangers once united against the land
At the sound of a bell
The running people from their shells
The rangers scream out to the cabins
They are the hunters and we are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't you tracking us down
The rangers scream out to the cabins
Raising their muskets
Flashing their badges
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want to be found
They keep hiding a quiet like
They'll keep sneaking
But they won't find us
They'll keep living a quiet life
You and I
You and I
The ranger scream out to the cabins
They are the hunters,
We are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want you tracking us down
The rangers scream out to the cabins
Raising their muskets,
Flashing their badges
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want to be found
6.Almost Lover
Your fingertips against my skin
The palm trees swaying in the wind in my chase
You sang me Spanish lullabies
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
Clever trick
I never wanna see you unhappy
I thought you want the same for me
Goodbye my almost lover
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartbreak
Almost lovers always do
We walked along a crowded street
You took my hand and danced with me
In the shade
And when you left you kissed my lips
You told me you'd never ever forget these images
No
I'd never wanna see you unhappy
I thought you'd want the same for me
Goodbye my almost lover
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartbreak
Almost lovers always do
I cannot go to the ocean
I cannot try the streets at night
I cannot wake up in the morning
Without you on my mind
So you're gonna and I'm haunted
And I bet you are just fine
Time make it that easy
You walk right in and out of my life
Goodbye my almost lover
Goodbye my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?
So long my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do
7.Think Of You
It's one hundred and nine degrees in this crowded room
No room to breathe with walls as cold as a gallery
This is no place for me
Such hard faces in smoke
The smell lingers in my clothes
It's a bad night to be alone
But thats the way it goes
And I think of you whenever life gets me down
I think of you whenever you're not around
And you rest your bones
Somewhere far from my house
Yeah, but you still pull me home
I thought I had it figured out in a brand new life with a great
big house
And green initials on the towels
I should be happy now
Well, you got yourself a family
And you planted roots down by the sea
I saw you once on the street
You didn't notice me
But I think of you whenever life gets me down
I think of you (I think of you) whenever you're not around
You rest your bones
Somewhere far from my house
Yeah, but you still pull me home
Just to put your mind at ease
You don't owe me anything
You paid me well in memories
And I think of you (I think of you) whenever life gets me down
I think of you (I think of you) whenever you're not around
And you rest your bones
Somewhere far from my house
Yeah, but you still pull me home
You still pull me home
You still pull me home
8.Ashes And Wine
Don't know what to do anymore
I've lost the only love worth fighting for
I'll drown in my tears
Don't they see?
That which show you that which make you hurt like me
All the same
I don't want mudslinging games
It's such a shame
To let you walk away
Is there a chance?
A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?
A reason to fight?
Is there a chance you may change your mind?
Or are we ashes and wine?
Don't know if our fate's already sealed
This day's spinning surface on a wheel
I'm ill with the thought of your kiss
Coffee laced intoxicating on her lips
Cut it out
I've got no claim on you now
Not allowed to wear your freedom down
Is there a chance?
A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?
A reason to fight?
Is there a chance you may chance your mind?
Or are we ashes and wine?
I'll tear myself away
That is what you need
There is nothing left to say
But
Is there a chance?
A fragment of light at the end of the tunnel?
A reason to fight?
Is there a chance you may change your mind?
Or are we ashes and wine?
The day's still ashes and wine
Or are we ashes?
9.Liar, Liar
Liar liar
You're such a great big liar
With the tallest tales that I have ever heard
Fire fire
You set my soul on fire
Laughing in the corner as it burns
Right between the ribs is sinking in
Oh, the sirens sing so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh, you don't do me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Anyone would drown
Sick and tired of this mad desire
Fluttering aside me like a hawk
Wire wire
Got my hands on wires
Will heaven help you when I get them out?
Right between the ribs
You'll feel it then
The sirens sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh, you don't do me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Anyone would drown
All the ships go down
Following the sound
All the ships go down
Oh oh the siren sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh oh you don't do me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Oh oh the siren sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh oh you don't do me in siren song
Anyone would drown
10.Last Of Days
Something's causing feet to fly,
rising like a dark knight
in silence
traffic's slow with broken boats
heading for the sea
and I'm an island
I watched you disappear into the clouds
swept away into another town
the world carries on without you
but nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
until the last of days
the sun is in the east,
rising for the beasts
and the beauties
if only I could tear it down,
plant it in the ground to warm your face
I built myself a castle on the beach
watching as it slid into the sea
the world carries on without you
but nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
until the last of days
until the last of days
through wars and harvest moons
I will wait for you.
the world carries on without you
but nothing remains the same
I'll be lost without you
until the last of days
until the last of days
11.Lifesize
We stood so tall
We caught a plane
By the wing
And held it safe
Until we found it a place to land
We layed across the ocean wide
Bridged the gap in record time
The people traveled across
And kissed our hand
Oh, for love
We become larger than Lifesize
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Large than Lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
We smile so bright
The sun went down
It rose above the maddening crowd
It lit the streets with the sweetest glow
We held the glow
Then made a turn
Wandered through the universe
The men of science observed through telescopes
Oh, for love we become
Larger than Lifesize
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than Lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than Lifesize we become
Larger than Lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
12.Near To You
He and I
Had something beautiful
But so dysfunctional
It couldn't last
Loved him so
But I let him go
Cause I knew he'd never love me back
Such pain as this shouldn't have to be experienced
I'm still reeling from the loss
Still a little bit delirious
Near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Cause though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah... I'm better near to you
Well you and i
It's something different
I'm enjoying it cautiously
I'm battle scared
I am workin' oh so hard
To get back to who I used to be
He's disappearing, fading steadily
When I'm so close to being yours
Won't you stay with me
Please
Cause near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Cause though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet... I'm better near to you
Yeah... I'm better near to you
I only know that I am better
Where you are
I only know that I am better
Where you are
I only know that I belong
Where you are
Near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Cause though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah... I'm better near to you
Yeah... I'm better near to you
13.Hope For The Hopeless
Stitch in your knitted brow
And you don't know how
You're gonna get it out
Crushed under heavy chest
Trying to catch your breath
But it always beats you by a step, all right now
Making the best of it
Playing the hand you get
You're not alone in this
There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope
Cold in a summer breeze
Yeah, you're shivering
On your bended knee
Still, when you're heart is sore
And the heavens pour
Like a willow bending with the storm, you'll make it
Running against the wind
Playing the cards you get
Something is bound to give
There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope for the hopeless
There's hope
There's hope
There's hope
There's hope
14.Borrowed Time
hick as thieves
the last of leaves
in the winter sun
holding fast
this freezing branch
is home to us
step, step right over the line
and onto borrowed time
when it's life, not waiting to die
waiting to divide to divide
counting stars
and passing cars
on the interstate
the end is near
I feel it dear,
but I am not afraid
step, step right over the line
and onto borrowed time
when it's life, not waiting to die
waiting to divide
to divide
but you say you're getting tired
you're tired and so am I
when you fall I'll fall behind
step, step right over the line
onto borrowed time
when it's life, not waiting to die
waiting to divide to divide
but you say you're getting tired
you're tired and so am I
when you fall
I'll fall behind
