I may be little different from what you expect
I know you want it done a certain way
My image is what I like
I'm gonna keep doing myself and that's alright
I move from town to town
Picking up a job when it feels right
Tonight I choose to be with you
I'll pour out all my thoughts if that's alright
Thank you all
For being with me tonight so I don't fall
And cheers to you all
For being who you are and standing tall
Looks like I found some new inspiration
Probably from hearing all new sounds from the crowded bars
And it's got me to open my mind again
So singing and playing for you is the way that I'll let you in
Thank you all
For being with me tonight to hear my songs
And cheers to you all
For giving me a peace of mind to carry on
We were in the state of fighting brothers
We all came as one to sing together
With a loud and mighty battle cry
Each one walked away with a changed mind
So thank you all
For filling up your glass extra tall
And cheers to you all
For giving me another reason to carry on
For giving me another reason to carry on
For giving me a peace of mind to carry on
For giving me a peace of mind to carry on

Am I supposed to understand now
What you've brought to the table
Oh look, your glass is now empty
Let me pour you another drink
Now this flood is all over
And you're using me as an outlet
and I don't mind when you come over
Just take your mess when you leave
"Oh baby,
I can't do this no more"
You say "No baby
I liked it better before"
Before this mess that we conjured
Makes me sit and wonder
About a new life 'bout a new start
It doesn't seem like too far
"Oh baby
I can't do this no more"
You say "No baby
I liked it better before"
"Oh baby
I can't do this no more"
You say "I know baby
It'll never be like before"

Can you hear me
Whisper in your ear
Can you feel it
A place that's near
Do you wanna show me
What makes you
I wanna feel it
Something new
Do you know where you are
This place ain't very far
From what we've dreamed of
A home for you and me with comfortability
Home
Home
Home
Home
And this is what you wanted
You made me fall for you
Maybe it's what I needed
All along was you
Do you know where you are
This place ain't very far
From what we've dreamed of
A home for you and me the possibilities
Home
Home
Home
Home
Do you know where we are
This place ain't very far
From what we've dreamed of
A home for you and me for eternity

I like this view
Waking up to you
And the morning dew
Smells just like you
We watch the sunrise
it's such a beautiful sky
No matter how hard you try
You can't hide the love in your eyes
My cluttered shelf
No longer needs to clean itself
Now that we share
This loving atmosphere
You intensify the love in my eyes
I'm mesmerized from the love in your eyes
I'm terrified you won't like what you find
I'm paralyzed with love in my eyes
I've gained a new perspective
To learn where my head is
My heart belongs to you
I wanna share everything with you
It's such a safe place
Flying in your headspace
and in this loving atmosphere
I have no other fear
You intensify the love in my eyes
I'm mesmerized from the love in your eyes
I'm terrified you won't like what you find
I'm paralyzed with love in my eyes
You carry me so high
In this atmosphere
You got me entrapped by your side
So take my hand lead us up to the sky
And we fly high
We fly high
We fly high
In this love
We fly high
We fly high
We fly high
In this love
We fly high
You intensify
We fly high
The love in my eyes
We fly high
I'm mesmerized
We fly high
In this love atmosphere

G(r)o(w) Away
04:15
|
|||
|
Driving across the country watching the land grow
Hoping with this new time I watch myself grow
And I'm showing up in places that I've never been
I do this from time to time again
I hope being here isn't a problem
For me it's self discovery
And suddenly I'm struck
I'm caught in the middle
Of two different roads
And I'm undecided on where to go
I'm caving in with the new place
It's dark and dusty down the old ways
And that's a note on my mental state
Don't worry, it's here to stay
I'm happy in my own mind
I think it all the time
You should go give it a try
And tell me what you'll find
Tell me what you'll find
Trapped in one's head
I'd rather be left for dead
Trapped in one's head
Come unlock me instead
And suddenly I'm struck
Caused by a ripple
From two different roads
And I've decided on where to go
Grow your ways
Go your way
Grow your ways
Go away
Grow your ways
Go your way
Grow your ways
Go away
Go away
Go away

Energy
03:45
|
|||
|
Sit and watch me
You will not confront me
I've moved on higher
I shine much brighter
I'm feeling heavy
This weight upon me
It's got me nervous
It's on the surface
This feels heated
I nearly defeated
All it's energy
Wasted on me
Wasted on me
Wasted on me
Wasted on me
Wasted on
Get off your ass now
I wanna watch you move
You've gotten older
But there's so much left to do
We can share it
This mutual move
Head on my shoulder
Will take you further
This feels repeated
I almost need it
For it's energy to go and be
Wasted on me
On me on me
Wasted on me
On me on me
Wasted on me
On me on me
Wasted on me
There comes a time when you know
That only hope can keep us afloat
And I'll take back what I know
Just to show you that I will grow
I know time has passed
But that don't mean I don't wanna go back
And nothing that I do has ever been wasted on you

Wavelength
04:28
|
|||
|
The lone wolf walks in the dead of night
Guided by the stars and the northern lights
Searching out his prey
Feelin' some type of way
Hoping that'll stay
And I don't dare make a sound
I don't want to be found
And I don't dare make a sound
I'll remain unbound
And I don't mind the dirt getting under my skin
I feel it molding in
My mind is always racing
My heart just keeps on chasing something
that I'm replacing
And I don't dare make a sound
I don't want to be found
And I don't dare make a sound
I'll remain unbound
And what do I hear in the distance, a wavelength?
A similar footprint to mine?
It's got the energy it's got the strength
But I don't know if I have the right to call it mine
Maybe I will make a sound
It seems that I have been found
and I keep making sounds
This wavelength will not drown
This wavelength will not drown
This wavelength will not drown

Canyon Walls
02:44
|
|||
|
All I see is red
Swimming through my head
Sliding from the top
I just can't get enough
Of these canyon walls
Watch me fall
They're constantly changing
It's always arranging
To fit in
Just like me
Watch me fall
For the canyon wall
And I can see a difference in everything
I try to be a little more observing
To all of your needs
But I just gotta know when you fall
Will it be hard to get back up once I'm gone
Once I'm gone
Once I'm -
Once I'm gone
Will you behave? Will you be in shape?
I can see a crack forming in the middle of your face
This is not the way to stay in place
When you have fallen for the canyon wall

Pass By
04:19
|
|||
|
It'll pass
Just a little bit more time then it all will be done
This will pass
This will pass and we'll just move on like it was just a dream
I know you feel down
You feel like you can't put the pieces back together again
You think it's a let down
But for now it's meant to happen to clear another way
And I know I'll feel alright
And I know this will all just pass by
This new path
It's a broken paved down road that we're all meant to go
You're not alone
No you aren't the first to go and find what life wants to show
You'll meet a friend
The one that's been there all along with the spark to go on
And with this flame
You'll go and pass the other lane where all your demons will play
And I know that I'll feel alright
And I know this will all just pass by
I should show how I'm doing to get by
Cause I know this will all pass on by
You're not lost
Look around at all the others who just wanna get better
Take their hand
Understand this is part of the plan
Cause we know that we'll feel alright
Cause we know this will all pass by
Say I know that I'll feel alright
Yeah I know this will all pass by
