Here we are hiding with our secret Now we are dancing with the regret Wishing we could change our past Now we see that poets couldn't save us Now we can tell the playwrights just delay us Looking for the answer to the problem I'm not worried about the sorrow Cause I have hope in something different I'm not worried about tomorrow Cause I have hope in something real Stop looking back now there's nothing we can do friend I know it's hard but it takes time for the heart to mend Wanting out of this great abyss of fear There is a question and I know the answer You're always talking of all the things that we were Waiting for this life to help you out But I'm not worried about the sorrow Cause I have hope in something different I'm not worried about tomorrow Cause I have hope in something real Don't try to hide for fear

Politicians 04:10
Everyone a politician Searching for dirty recognition Everyone a politician Speaking loud with false ambition You didnt want to tell another lie You didn't want to break your promises But you got selfish and gave it all away You burned bridges and we found you in tour grave Everyone a politician Stealing time to never listen Everyone a politician Faking smiles and always kissin’ You didnt want to tell another lie You didn't want to break your promises But you got selfish and gave it all away You burned bridges and we found you in tour grave Upper class, middle class, sand falls through the hour glass Now you're lower class, burning pages, wishing you could rewrite your past

So drink your vodka and have your fun You're not fooling anyone You stumble all about the room Regret won't set in very soon So hold your breath and take a moment And close your eyes to see what you want He eyes you from across the way Heart is set on obtaining his prey So he holds you down and demands your lips Grasping on to those skeleton hips So hold your breath and take a moment And close your eyes to see what you want Now you're drunk and alone lyin' on the floor Hurt pourin' from your heart that's oh so sore And now he's gone cause he wants more Now you're drunk and alone lyin' on the floor There's hurt pourin' from heart that's oh so sore Now he's gone cause he wants more So hold your breath and take a moment And close your eyes to see what you want

I am a nautical dreamer I am a mountaintop wanderer I am a ghost town explorer I am a traveling preacher My soul's submerged beneath the water The bow is crashing on the glass My worn hands cling to the coarse rope The anchor clasps to the floor I know I'm not far from home Cause I'm not far from death Yeah I know I'm not far from home Cause I'm not far from death My flesh is frozen in the snow drifts The pines they whisper in the wind My fingers stiffen in the winter The clouds envelop me with weight My feet are weary from the crossing These buildings exhale hollow breath My lungs are dark and filled with regret This lifeless city always sleeps But I know I'm not far from home Cause I'm not far from death Yeah I know I'm not far from home Cause I'm not far from death My spirit's meager from false e banquets The taste is bitter on my tongue My fire's slowly lost its fervor But I can see revival brewing Don't let the anchor hold you down Harbor intimacy until the Wedding Feast

So My Soul 05:37
As the pines dance in the wind So my soul dances for you As the lark sings her morning song So my soul sings for you As the night rests beneath the sun So my soul rests in you As the deer pants for the streams So my soul pants for you Soon I'll see you're glory And soon I'll sing holy holy As the peaks float in the clouds So my soul floats in you As the sea falls upon the shore So my soul falls in you As the stream flows through the earth So my soul flows in You As the palms stand by the sea So my soul stands in You Soon I'll see Your glory Soon I'll sing holy holy Creation groans for Your return My soul yearns to dance with You again Soon I'll see Your glory Soon I'll sing holy holy

Aloha 03:03
Aloha Kona hello my friends Aloha sunshine and summers that never end Aloha moonlight and stars so bright Aloha feelings Ali'i drive at night Aloha high tides and waves so strong Aloha car rides and ice cream by the cone Aloha Uncle you've drank too much Aloha friendship I can't thank you enough Aloha new life we've found real joy Aloha Spirit there's freedom found in love Aloha mountains and low hung clouds Aloha streetside music for the crowds Aloha Kona goodbye my friends Aloha ocean the way the palm tree bends Aloha memories and time well spent Aloha seasons I'm so glad I went

Another lonely night at the Lenexa Inn Thinking I’m waiting for my story to begin And that’s alright That’s alright I’m not drowning in my feelings I’m not trapped inside my mind I’m just staring at the ceiling With an endless amount of time And that’s alright That’s alright I shouldn't be alive Oh it's a wonder I ever arrived You can't just kill a pilgrim kid I know it won’t write itself I know what I have to do It won’t teleport to the shelf And the words may feel so few But that’s alright That’s alright The Infection was dark and strong On that slippery interstate And it sang a feverish song And that semi was driven by fate But that’s alright That’s alright I shouldn't be alive Oh it's a wonder I ever arrived You can't just kill a pilgrim kid Well I poured out my heart On the drive down from Portland And I told her about the start Of the feelings I was holdin' And that’s alright That’s alright She said she didn’t feel the same way I told her that was fine It must mean that glacier Rainbow wasn’t a sign And that’s alright That’s alright Driving the Pacific Highway 101 Come around a corner By a boulder, I’m left undone But that’s alright That’s alright I’m at the waterfront of the Rogue Across the bridge from Gold Beach I’m staring at the Oregon Coast Thinking of the memories I’ll keep And that’s alright That’s alright I shouldn't be alive Oh it's a wonder I ever arrived You can't just kill a pilgrim kid

Homesick 04:17
Taking chances, chasing fire New romances, real desire I can feel you, in my bones I can hear you, creation groans I know I’ll be there soon, As sure as sun and moon This world will never be, enough to satisfy me Foolish pure love, it's what you give Cast out fear now, I might live Take me with you, where you are Sing with me love, you're near not far I know I’ll be there soon, As sure as sun and moon This world will never be, enough to satisfy me All this wandering, all for you All this suffering found what’s true You've been here now, all along I'm not cast down, weak made strong Your yoke is easy, your burden is light I know you see me, worthy in your sight

The palms and the pines The fields and the sky The light all around in the daytime The stars in the night Shadowed by moonlight The bear the boy the wind and the ocean I'm drowned in a river of this love Surrounded by things I might discover I'm not bound by the fear that condemns But I'm free to dance with you forever The doe and the fawn Mother and child A choice a life the difference doesn't matter Widows and orphans Looking for a husband, a father a protector In the war time I'm drowned in a river of this love Surrounded by things I might discover I'm not bound by the fear that condemns But I'm free to dance with you forever A road like a spine Speckled center line It curves and winds and twists through the mountains The words on a truck Your favor looks like luck The sun the moon the clouds it's all a symphony Tell me you love me again

I'm a Gypsy 05:11
Well I'm wandering down this barren road and I'm looking for a lighter load To carry, not on my own And I'm searchin' for an open door to rest my head on this hard wood floor and I'm lyin', not on my own And oh I'm a gypsy I'm a pilgrim I'm a son I'm a bride Everything in the world is awake it's alive and wondering how and I'm asking why and I'm doubtin', not on my own And the waves they crash and the waves they rise and I'm lookin' for a reason why to open, these blood shot eyes And oh I'm a gypsy I'm a pilgrim I'm a son I'm a bride And I'm longing for my coming home where the tears are gone and I'm running towards Your arms, always open wide And the sweet embrace of my Papa's heart and that tender smile tears me apart in the most, beautiful way And it's a foolish love I can't understand that He'd lead me here that He'd take my hand and I'd know, I'm not on my own Oh I'm a gypsy I'm a pilgrim I'm a son I'm a bride And the Wedding Feast it's near not far and I'm longing just to be where You are again, not on my own And the marriage wine it's sweet not dry and I'll drink it up and I'll close my eyes just to see, I'm never alone I'm a gypsy I'm a pilgrim I'm a son I'm a bride
