1.Stay With Me
Is it a dream or just a nightmare?
In your anger turn and walk away
Quick to argue, slow to listen
Could we try to start at the beginning?
Stay with me
I'll never leave you here
It takes some time to give it away
You've got the heart that's willing to (change)
Change direction, lax affection
Darling, what to do
Feelings last but for the moment
Often times can turn away the truth
In slowing down the words that steer the argument
We find that neither side meant any word of it
And when the fight is over
And when the dust has settled
We find that neither side meant any word of it
2.Sleeper
When I'm left alone
Down at the heart of it
My doubt was never a sign of strength
I wish I'd known that You were never far
I guess I would've known if I would've been awake
I've been dreaming life away
Sleeper, no deeper
Lift your eyes
Awake from dreaming
Sleeper, arise and you will find life
The answer is in Me
Every dream I knew was but a mere attempt
At what I truly thought would satisfy
Seeking out the truth
If real or make believe
My eyes wide open will really see
Love and life in all You say
Sleeper, arise and you will find life
You will find life when you give your life away
3.Part One
In twilight
Where rain and gray aren't innocent
None of us are
Shadow life
The light is dim and paranoid
This is all we have
Now we leave this place
Between the light and the dark there's a comfortable grey
From all I've known I'm leaving today
Don't make me turn away
When the Light comes (from far away)
I'm closing my eyes in shadow
When Darkness takes me (so far away)
I look for the Light and find that you can't have both
I look around
See through myself and to the ground
For I am empty
What I have
It's all I've got and is the cause of pain within me
Now we leave this place
Between the light and the dark there's a comfortable grey
From all I've known I'll have to part ways
I won't go through this, the divorce is too great
When the Light comes (from far away)
I'm closing my eyes in shadow
When Darkness takes me (so far away)
I look for the Light and find that you can't have both
I will not let go of all I've never wanted
Must I turn away my only hope to see the day?
When the Light comes (from far away)
I'm closing my eyes in shadow
When Darkness takes me (so far away)
I look for the Light and find that you can't have both
4.Madmen
Say goodbye to what you thought was you
We dance in consequences
Entranced with worldly glimpses
Careless with our decisions
You'd think we never meant them
We say that we're the future
Only want it if it goes our way
The time we have is crucial
Will we put this off another day?
No excuses, the time for change is here and now
This is the real adventure
To move past what's mediocre
Obsessed with entertainment
Step up or miss the point of it
We say that we're the future
Only want it if it goes our way
The time we have is crucial
Will we put this off another day?
(Repeat)
5.Endless Day
The Light, it hurts
A painful feeling, piercing my soul to the core
Distorted faces
Brightness shows what we truly are
A thin line of emerald green
Stretched tight as a fiddle string
The climb we're making
The chance I'm taking
On the horizon, what lies ahead?
Endless Day, no further away
Where present day will never end
I will run with no pain in my side
All shadows left behind
For what it's worth
In a space so different
The gray of home could never compare
Undeserving rescue
Offers me escape from despair
Where light comes from another source
And choice spans such a Great Divorce
Is the balance shifting?
Are my burdens lifting?
Spirit coming to Life
Watching, Waiting
Further up, and further in
6.Praise & Adore (Some Live Without It)
What I have to say is obvious
A knowledge free for all of us are
Your word leaves us with no excuse
The paths we choose make us who we are
There's a breeze blowing through here tonight
So I praise and adore You
Lay it all down before You
In every way, You're beautiful
From my heart, I praise and adore
You made the world beautiful
I cannot stand and deny
You created life
And some live without it
Wake up morning sunrise in my eyes
At night the moon lights all the sky
(Still some say You didn't do a thing)
The sound of hope that's in the air
In everything, it's everywhere
(Reveals a truth that's worth remembering)
There's a breeze blowing through here tonight
It's true, it's all You
And every breath I take
There's no way
Accident created this place
7.Introducing
8.Summer Song
Spread the blanket on top, and I'll turn off the lights
And we'll gaze at the stars
With you by my side, the moon set to the right
It's incomparable so far
I haven't stopped falling in love
Haven't stopped falling
Two years ago, I had no idea that you were so perfect
As we wait so long, until we join hands
You make the wait worth it
I haven't stopped falling in love
Haven't stopped falling
Now years down the road
Still hasn't gotten old to sit and laugh the day away
There's one thing you should know
My love for you grows even more every day
I haven't stopped falling in love
Haven't stopped falling in love
And the day that I finally can take you home
There's no way that I'm ever, ever letting go
We'll be ok, though miles may separate
There's no space between our hearts
And this day, I choose to keep loving you
As if it were a choice, I can't stop falling
I haven't stopped falling in love
Spread the blanket on top, and I'll turn off the lights
9.Time I Understood
As I'm building up this house
I wonder what of it will stay
It seems You just take things away
And I'll admit I shouldn't say these things
But I have got to hear from You somehow
Does this have a point to it?
God, I wish I could hear You
You said You'd help me through this
I wish You didn't have to
Why did You take this away? I wanted it
Show me that there is no need to be afraid
Can I move on now that it's gone?
As I travel down this road
I wonder if I should turn home
All this time I've felt alone
My head in my hands
Where were You when I was in need?
And I look back to find You chasing me
Sometimes I try and I miss the point of it
It's about time we die we're not down here for us
As You're tearing down this house
There is only one thing I can say
I'm so glad You take away
And I'll admit things worked out for the good
And it's about time I understood
10.Forgive And Forget
It's certain now you've gone too far
You're finding out the worst about you
The wrong inside runs so thick
How did you let it go on?
Try breathing in, try breathing out
Release the source of all the doubt
How could I choose not to forgive?
With everything you choose to forget
And still we will be loved
It's making sense, the telltale signs
The root of it, the taste so bitter
The source of pain, the jealous grudge
That you allowed in anger
11.How Have We Come This Far
In the beginning when all this was something new
I was younger
They say when you're older you have it figured out
Did I take it for granted?
How do you see right through my falters?
Turning around was never so hard
Until I found us far apart
Turning it over I'm left to wonder
How have we come this far
Now, how have we come this far?
Hands that are reaching
To a world that's turned away from You
Truth that is sobering
Your love will never cease finding the lost ones
Letting go of all my pain
Falling down is oh, so hard
I am torn, I am bruised
Finding grace in every scar
I am whole, I am new
12.Twenty Twenty
Time flies when you have fun
But when the world falls down you turn and run
Like it's over now, over now
But there's more to Who you say you know
And it's your own fault your faith won't show
Like it's over now, over now
And it's your time
Your time though no signs seem congruent
You'll find the design plays into it
Time to let this go, you never had control
We can look back to when He was there for us
Take all that you have learned when you were on your face
Now it's your turn to give it out, give it out
Looking back to when the lights went out
There never was a reason for you to doubt
And it's over now, over now
And it's your time
Your time though no signs seem congruent
You'll find the design plays into it
Time to let this go you never had control
Look back home weary soul
Recall the times of old to face the new
Your faith will overcome
We can look back to when He was there for us
13.Tale of the Dragon's Defeat
A letter with no address
Burning a hole with words
Writ' in frantic distress
Storming my way through night
Gaze set on the light
Worry gripping my chest
Oh, God, no not my love!
She's no match for his tricks
The games he plays
Stay with me as I ride
Your words may have swayed her before
But I'll fight to help her ignore
Every word that you say
That masks your intent to betray
In this letter I hold from true beauty untold
Sealed and coated with fear
Love, he's here for my soul, come You're my only Hope
I will save you, my dear
Oh, Father, my task I may dread
But as ransom, take me instead
Take heart now, my Son
Fear not for the dragon will not overcome
Your words may have swayed her before
But I died so she could have more
The Life that she now finds in Me
Is the tale of the dragon's defeat
14.Dragon (Outro)
