1.Redemption's Son

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

I don't know where we've been
Could you tell me where we are again ?
And Jesus is my only friend
No one else knows who I am

I know I'll never make it on the cross
Spend my days looking for what my daddy lost
He was too proud to have a boss
Sold himself out then he couldn't afford the cost

No one knows how he felt
Hung himself in the county jail
There are those who say he will burn in hell
I don't think they knew him very well

Angel of love
Shine a light on us
I was born to be
Redemption's son

Angel of love
Shine a light on us
I was born to be
Redemption's son

(Lord)
Forgive us for what we've done Lord
Forgive us for what we've done

I don't know were we are
Fearful eyes don't see very far
Driving in my daddy's car
Ashtray full of his cigars

Is it real what I see?
His ghost is riding next to me
Till he's gone I won't be free
From the burden of his misery

I know I'll never make it on the cross
Spend my days looking for what my daddy lost
He was too proud to have a boss
Sold himself out then he couldn't afford the cost

All over the neighbourhood
Mostly he was misunderstood
In his heart the bad beat the good
Used to be a time I'd have killed him if I could

Angel of love
Shine a light on us
I was born to be
Redemption's son

Angel of love
Shine a light on us
I was born to be
Redemption's son

(Lord)
Forgive us for what we've done Lord
Forgive us for what we've done Lord
Forgive us for what we've done


2.Honey And The Moon

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

Don't know why I'm still afraid
If you weren't real I would make you up, now
I wish that I could follow through
I know that your love is true and deep as the sea

But right now everything you want is wrong
And right now all your dreams are waking up
And right now I wish I could follow you
To the shores of freedom
Where no one lives

Remember when we first met
And everything was still a bet in love's game
You would call, I'd call you back
And then I'd leave a message on your answering machine

But right now everything is turning blue
And right now the sun is trying to kill the moon
And right now I wish I could follow you
To the shores of freedom
Where no one lives

Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom
Run away
Run away tonight

We're made out of blood and rust
Looking for someone to trust without a fight
I think that you came too soon
You're the honey and the moon that lights up my night

But right now everything you want is wrong
And right now all your dreams are waking up
And right now I wish I could follow you
To the shores of freedom
Where no one lives

Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom
Run away
Run away tonight

We got too much time to kill
Like pigeons on my windowsill we hang around
Ever since I've been with you
You hold me up all the time I'm falling down

But right now everything is turning blue
And right now the sun is trying to kill the moon
And right now I wish I could follow you
To the shores of freedom
Where no one lives

Freedom
Run away tonight
Freedom
Run away
Run away tonight

Freedom
Run away
Run away tonight
Freedom
Run away
Run away tonight
Run away tonight


3.You Could Be In Jail

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

Don't believe in dreams
You are
From a machine
Oh don't
You could be in jail

Brainwashing you
They control
Everything that you do
Oh don't
You could be in jail

They say they have the answer
But no one knows a thing
They say they know your way home
Some place you've already been

Don't believe in love
They gave
Without any blood
Oh don't
You could be in jail

Taking what you made
Say they will save you
Giving back what you gain
Oh no
You could be in jail

They say they have the answer
But no one knows a thing
They say they know your way home
Some place you've already been


4.I Would Rather Hide

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

Yeah yeah
I know we're all insane
When there's no one else around
Yeah yeah
I know we're all insane
When there's no one else
When there's no one else you can blame

In the night I'm on my own
Unglue my mind and burn my telephone
I don't wanna go outside
I don't wanna go outside
Inside
I would rather hide

I feel a phantom fly from my fear
(Ain't going nowhere)
Follows the voice I sometimes hear
(Ain't going nowhere)
I don't wanna go outside
I don't wanna go outside
Inside
I would rather hide

Yeah yeah
I know we're all insane
When there's no one else around
Yeah yeah
I know we're all insane
When there's no one else
And there's no one left you can blame

I think aliens abducted me
I close my eyes if I want to see
I don't wanna go outside
I don't wanna go outside
Inside
I would rather hide

I don't wanna go outside
I don't wanna go outside
Inside
I would rather hide


5.Innocent World

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

We don't know which way we're going
Don't know where we are
Find a way out, find a way
Home is somewhere I'm missing
When I look around
Find a way out, find a way

Hell has no reason to smile
When you're living in an innocent world
You once had a heart like a child
Now it's buried under sadness and guilt

We don't know which way we're going
Don't know where we are
Find a way out, find a way
Home is somewhere I'm missing
When I look around
Find a way out, find a way

Hell has no reason to smile
When you're living in an innocent world
You once had a heart like a child
Now it's buried under sadness and guilt

Don't run away
Don't run away
Don't run away now
Don't run away
Don't run away
Don't run away now


6.September Baby

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

Your holiness is gone
Sometimes love will make you sad
Until you know where you belong
You'll dream of what you never had

I can feel the falling leaves
Filling up my vacant mind
When I fall onto my knees
And pray you don't leave me behind

Summertime is over
I don't owe you nothing
When you say you're leaving
I want you to hold on
Summertime is over
I don't owe you nothing

I can see September's sun
Sinking in the autumn sky
If you want me to be gone
I've left already in my mind

Summertime is over
I don't owe you nothing
When you say you're leaving
I want you to hold on
Summertime is over
I don't owe you nothing
When you say you're leaving
I want you to hold on


7.Nation Of Slaves

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

Live in a time where we're all gonna fall apart
With chemicals rising up over the sun
A nuclear mind in a machine with human heart
Is the creation we're gonna become

Nation of slaves, who all say that
I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't

Burned by the sun
Burned by the sun
Burned by the sun
Burned by the sun

Live in a time where we get fed the same idea
Like junkies addicted to information
You go to a new place and you never get anywhere
And I already finished before you begun

Nation of slaves, who all say that
I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't

Burned by the sun
Burned by the sun
Burned by the sun
Burned by the sun

I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you
And I can't find my way without following you


8.Evidence

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

I need a dream, I need a bigger dream
Tell me if you know what I mean
I wanna live, I wanna live in your camera
Take a picture of my heart with ya

You could have
Evidence to know how I've been bad
Make me sad
Trying to find you in a world that's gone
away
I wanna sing, I wanna sing on your radio
So you would know the way I feel
I wanna die, I wanna die on your TV show
And be reborn as something that's real

You could have
Evidence to know how I've been bad
Make me sad
Trying to find you in a world that's gone away
World that's gone away

Nobody's son
I'm on the run under the gun
I'm not having any fun
What have I done, what have I done and what have I done
I don't even know what I've done

Cause you could have
Evidence to know how I've been bad
Make me sad
Trying to find you in a world that's gone away
World that's gone away (x8)


9.Buy A Bag

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

She won't hesistate
To take me to dinner
Or to pay for my money
When I buy a bag
I pray like everybody else

She wears a nightgown
In front of me
Shows me her nipple
Or that's just what I see
But when I buy a bag
I pray like everybody else

The money makers are comatose
The money makers they make the most
And when they buy their bags
They pray like everybody else

All of their daughters are having fun
They spend their evenings looking for guns
And when they buy their bags
They pray like everybody else

It's okay to have fun with your mind
Hang onto anything decent you find
Cause when you buy your bag
You pray like everybody else

I been alone for a very long time
Take care of yours
Cause I take care of mine
If I sell you a bag
You'll pray like everybody


10.Termite Song

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

Couldn't make it up
As we go along
I don't have any words to put into your song
Looking through the junkyard of your heart
I need to find an engine for my car
I don't know where you are
I don't know where you are

When I drive
When I drive around the bend
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye

And though I really tried
I never have been good
And for my missing heart I carve one out of wood
Now I see the termites crawling into me
After they are finished I wonder where you'll be
I wonder where you'll be
I wonder where you'll be

When I drive
When I drive around the bend
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye

You never have been young
You never have been sane
And though you say that you don't care
In your eyes I see the shame
Looking through the window of your mind
I see a lonely shadow running out of time
Running out of time
Running out of time

When I drive
When I drive around the bend
Singing bye, bye, bye, bye


11.Permission

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

I got a new job
I got a new job
And I don't need your permission
To fade away

I'm right behind you
I'm right behind you
And I don't need your permission
To make my play

On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
(on the way down, on the way down)

On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
(on the way down, on the way down)

I'm right inside you
I'm right inside you
And I don't need your permission
To dig your grave

I've got religion
I've got religion
And I don't need your permission
To pray for you

On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
(on the way down, on the way down)

On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
(falling up, falling up)

On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
(on the way down, on the way down)

On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
On the way down, you're falling up
(falling up)

Tell the darkness what you're thinking
Tell the darkness what you see
You got everything you wanted
In the darkness you are naked
In the darkness you are near
You got everything you wanted

Oh the world will never hear your pain
Oh the world will never hear you cry
Fly, the way you fly
Fly, the way you fly
Fly, the way you fly


12.Favorite Girl

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

In your version of this world
You're everybody's favorite girl
But that don't mean I'll be the victim
Of any pain you are inflicting today

I don't know what I should do
I've been so happy
Being unhappy with you
But I've just had a revelation
My heart's been dying of starvation and I need
Somebody who will feed me

And if salvation only comes when you fall
Oh Lord
It's so hard for me to believe
Oh Lord
I'm still waiting for you to call
Oh Lord
Trapped inside my memory
Oh Lord

Pretending to be
Someone you know nothing about
Oh I wish you were
Someone I knew nothing about

You're looking for any explanation
Your words they only find a meaning in between
What's real and what will only ever be
Your dream

And if salvation only comes when you fall
Oh Lord
It's so hard for me to believe
Oh Lord
I'm still waiting for you to call
Oh Lord
Trapped inside my misery
Oh Lord

Will salvation only come if I fall ?
If I fall ?


13.Your Are The Dark

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

I'm up all night
Against my will
My medicine
Won't let me feel
Anything at all

The doctor gave
Me sleeping pills
And I took one
Then I felt all alone
Sleeping like a stone

And babe
You were the light
But now
You are the dark

I dream about
The autumn leaves
And you were one
Falling in the sun
Where are you now?

A TV burns
Our hollow room
I cleaned it up
Now I don't know what to do
I'm just lying down

And babe
You were the light
And now
You are the dark

I guess I live
Up in my head
I call you up
But my phone is dead
And I need too much

The doctor said
I need a cure
But what I got
He's not really sure
I won't say much

And babe
You were the light
And now
You are the dark


14.In The Night

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

And where we live
Is where we hide
Cause we can't forgive
What's inside
We have sweet love
We have sweet love

In the night
Voices will fight
Voices of the shadows
And the runaways
Running from love
And every sorrow left behind

And when we wake up
It's already dark
And I touch your face
To feel your heart
We have sweet love
We have sweet love

In the night
Voices will fight
Voices of the shadows
And the runaways
Running from love
And every sorrow left behind


15.Blue Lips

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

I prayed to god from hell
Rung like a midnight bell
Dancing naked in these streets
Thought I was Jesus Christ
As I dug out my eyes
And threw them past the prison gate

So I still can't explain
What I had to do
To try and make it
Since your red lips turned blue

Now I'm a hunted man
Singing the song you sung
Wearing the noose from which you hung
I guess we lost the war
The air I breathed before
Only filled the dead man's lungs

So I still can't explain
What I had to do
To try and make it
Since your red lips turned blue

The devil is the lord
Of this confusing world
Where all the wrong dreams come true
I never needed light
I never felt like I was right
Did not deserve the love I knew

So I still can't explain
What I had to do
To try and make it
Since your red lips turned blue


16.You've Been Loved

Lyrics:Joseph Arthur
Music:Joseph Arthur
Arranger:Joseph Arthur

You don't know how you feel
Are you a dream? Are you for real?
Cause you don't ever slow down
To find what you lost or lose what you found
No one's saying what you need to hear

You've been loved
You've been loved
You've been loved

You've been loved
You've been loved
You've been loved

And so it's hard to admit
Most days you feel like you don't exist
Temptation sneaks past your fist
Until the devil won't let you resist
Oblivion is what you want

But you've been loved (All the way)
You've been loved (All the way)
You've been loved (All the way, All the way)

But you've been loved (All the way)
But you've been loved (All the way)
But you've been loved (All the way)

What you wanna do with your life?
What you gonna do with your life? (Make it to the light)
What you gonna do with your life?
What you gonna do with your life? (Make it to the light)

You've been loved (All the way)
You've been loved (All the way)
You've been loved (All the way, All the way)
You've been loved (All the way)
You've been loved (All the way)
You've been loved (All the way)
