2.This Too Shall Pass
You know you can't keep lettin' it get you down
And you can't keep draggin' that dead weight around.

Better run like hell when you hit the ground.

You can't stop these kids from dancin'.
Why would you want to?
Especially when yor already gettin' yours.

3.All Is Not Lost
It's coming down, babe.
Could be as bad as they talked about.
It's coming down, babe.
Could be before we can make it out.
But when they say that all is lost,
all is not lost, all is not lost.
But when they say all is lost,
all is not lost, no all is not lost at all.
They could be right about it.
They could be right in some crazy way.
'Cause if they yell fire, well that's what we get.
Yeah that's what we get.
Yeah they yell fire, and that's what we get.
So, yeah it's coming babe.
Probably bad as they talked about.
But just remember: when the tide rolls in,
it can't be too long until it rolls back out.
And when they say all is lost, all is not lost,
all is not lost.
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost,
no all is not lost at all.
And if they burn, if they burn this place down to the ground,
what does it matter'
What does it matter'
So when they say that all is lost, all is not lost,
all is not lost.
But when they say that all is lost, all is not lost.
No, all is not lost at all.

9.Before The Earth Was Round
Before the earth was round
There was no end to things
And no one tried to measure what they knew
Everything was warm
And everyone was loved
And every contradiction was true
The sun was twice as hot
The moon was twice as far
And the sky was still honestly blue
The sky was still honestly blue
But when the time came
Everything spiraled in
And everyone forgot what they knew
War became a job
And love became a mystery
And heart and head were split into two
Fear and doubt began
And God threw up his hands
And the sky didn't know what to do
The sky didn't know what to do
The sky didn't know what to do
10.Last Leaf
If you should be the last Autumn leaf hanging from the tree
I'll still be here waiting on the breeze to bring you down to me
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
And if you should be the last seed in Spring to venture forth a
leaf
I'll still be here waiting on the rain to warm your heart for me
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
And if it takes forever
Forever it'll be
11.Back From Kathmandu
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are
You loved everyone like a sovereign
Half magnanimous, half unimpressed
And I was talkin' too much, and I was tryin' too hard
In the dream it was just like it is
Everything was so simple
Things are and they always will be
Oh you are the answer to the question that is me
Yeah in the dream it was just like it is
We were captive there in a prison
Where everyone was guilty by mistake
It was infinite, It was infinite
In the dream it was just like it is
And I, I asked, is that good for you
You said 'no probably not
But everybody needs to get through the night
And love is all we've got
Yeah in the dream it was just like it is
In the dream it was just like it is
In the dream you were someone different
You and everyone else all at once
You were beautiful, you were beautiful
In the dream you were just like you are
12.While You Were Asleep
In the shallowest part of the night while you quietly slept,
I lay here and I counted the hours to the sound of your breath.
Can't you love me?
Can't you love me how I want, please?
How I want
I went walking down on Second Street through the leaves and the
clutter.
In the pale yellow sodium light, nothing has any color.
Can't you love me?
Can't you love me how I want, please?
How I want
Can't you love me?
Can't you love me how I want, please?
How I want
13.In The Glass
At first there was
there was just no question
who wouldn't rather be there reflection
when i get here everything was cold and perfect
when i get here everything was cold and perfect
It was clear and bright
like a mid-winter sunlight
my heart beat counting down a moment precise and quiet
(I love how I sit my own reflection helpless
I love how you saw my overworld and helpless)
but IIII
What have I done what have i done
oooooo (OH) what have I done
ooohhhh what have i done
my god what have i done
oooo (OH) what have I done
ooh what have i done
as time went on
you could feel a silence
solidifying
the sound of my thoughts parylizing
I tried to come back to and melt the glass and perfect
I tried to come back to and melt the glass and perfect
but IIIII
What have I done what have i done
oooooo (OH) what have I done
ooohhhh what have i done
my god what have i done
oooh oooo what we can pay
to get what you want
oooh to get what you want
oh what have i done
Every day is the same
we're praying for rain
when it finally came
oh when it came
everyday was the same
still praying for rain
