Leave it on the Line
03:52

pardon the way that i stare
you know its been quite a while
since i felt something there
even if you’re just a child
it’s getting dark, sun sinking low
or maybe it’s all that shade you throw
if the walls came crumbling down you might find
we’re glory bound, but it takes time
you can go your way and i’ll go mine
or leave it on the line
what if the words that we used
spoken from where we came
don’t let it get confused
i am done playing games
the hour is getting late, i know
and my body can’t take this blow for blow
if the walls came crumbling down you will find
we’re glory bound, but it takes time
you can go your way and i’ll go mine
or leave it on the line
if we pass this way again
would you promise to let me in
would you promise not to let good love pass you by
and leave it on the line

Power in Pain
04:16
|

|
dark clouds a-comin’, i feel drops of rain
i see worry in my mother’s eyes
all these helping hands but we’re still building walls
with a world of trouble here inside
but there is power, power in pain
to bring all the people together again
we all have power, we all have pain
so let’s come together, together again
i can’t remember if i’ve ever lived a day
when i can’t tell my kids it’ll be alright
cause the world is warming, and the streets are storming
but the feet of the people are standing right by your side
cause there is power, power in pain
to bring all the people together again
we all have power, we all have pain
so let’s come together, together again
we have been battered, we have been broken
but now we have been awoken
to the power, power in pain
to bring all the people together again
we all have power, we all have pain
so let’s come together, together again

What I Owe
04:14
|
|||
|
Took long enough for me to come around
But the past don't much matter does it now
I was stuck till you dropped that needle down
In a flash from that August light I found
All to make my maker proud
Still don't know why you just smiled so patiently
As I chased down every tale but my own
While everything that this hard luck kid could dream
Was stranded outside standing naked in the cold
So I'll take my time
And wait my place in line
To make it shine like gold
Till I pay down what I owe
See I always wanted to become homecoming king
Pretty things are pretty nice I suppose
Oh but how I wish I spent more time in the deep end fishing
In swimming pools, ancient eyes and vintage clothes
But I still got time
You saved my place in line
To make it shine like gold
Till I pay down what I owe
But I still got time
You saved my place in line
To make it shine, shine, shine
Shine like gold
Till I pay down what I owe

Out of Thin Air
03:30
|
|||
|
looking out at this sea of a million people
watching as my reflection watches me
wondering just where it is i think i’m going
wherever this wind’s been blowing me
out of thin air, i was floating along
out of thin air, not much right not much wrong
thought my eyes were open, then came that moment
I had to stop and stare
at what was always there
out of thin air
looking out on this sea of a million people
praying soon come the day when my ship comes in
cause i’ve spent too many nights drifting out in the ocean
thinking on where i’m going and where i’ve been
out of thin air, i was floating along
out of thin air, not much right not much wrong
thought my eyes were open, then came that moment
i had to stop and stare
you were always there
out of thin air

Faith

Lately I’ve been changing
Waking up before someone I once knew was coming down
Lately I see the same things
Differently this time around
It’s not like you ever see it coming
No tidal wave ablaze, storm raging at sea
But each day it’s growing
Now there’s a hurricane flame inside of me
So have faith in me
Have faith in me
Once I was just a stranger
Once I was on the outside looking in
But now I’m bonded, yes I’m qualified
I close my eyes, arrive, and begin
So have faith in me
Have faith me
It’s only a revolution to get where I’m gonna be
So have faith in me
So have some faith in me
Have some faith me
It’s only a revolution to get where I wanna be
So have some faith in me
Have faith in me

I’m packing up my clothes
Said goodbye to everything I know
I can’t believe I’m leaving New York
It’s like I barely got to know ya
Tired of waiting on a clear sign
Heading west for the big sky
Where the stars align
So let’s make believe
That earthquakes and queens
Make the heart ache, as the universe expands
In hollywoodland
Hollywoodland
Hollywoodland
Hollywoodland
I’m packing up my clothes
Said goodbye to everyone I know
To put my picture in the big screen
Fully loaded on amphetamines
And kick this engine into overdrive
I could blow it but at least I tried
Lord you know I try
So let’s make believe
Through mistakes and dreams
A world awaits, so I’m holding out my hand
For hollywoodland
Hollywoodland
Hollywoodland

Giving Up
03:36

girl you got
got a little piece of my heart
but i’m fucking wondering when you will stop
keeping me out in the dark
‘cause girl i’m tired
tired of all these games we play
and i’m running out of all my desire
to keep up with this charade
so i’m giving up on you
yes i’m giving up on you
of course i wanna know where this love can go
but i’m giving up on you
ain’t it a shame
shame we never saw this through
‘cause there is so much more i wanted to say girl
so much i wanna do
but now i won’t
and we won’t know what could have been
so i guess i gotta let you go
to get you back again
girl i’m giving up on you
yes i’m giving up on you
guess i’ll go run and hide, just me and my pride
girl i’m giving up on you
so i’m giving up on you
yes i’m giving up on you
though i’m not sure i’ve had, true love can’t hurt this bad
so i’m giving up on you
girl i’m giving up on you
yes i’m giving up on you
no i won’t walk the line until i know you’re mine
so i’m giving up on you

Lift my spirit up
And let it rain in California
The room keeps spinning ‘round
And my hearts on fire
And if that smoke don’t rise
I’m coming home by and by
If you’re barely hanging on I’m on your side
Here I am, crowned in glory
Like the coming tide
Short on time, but long in story
On my mind
Just a West Virginia boy
Shouting out into the void
No I ain’t gonna be another coal miner’s son
Cause when I hear them angels sing
Songs that only angels sing
I close my eyes and try to let it come
It ain’t like I was born ready
With a steady hand
Yeah it took a while, but I took my chances
Here I stand
Lifetime ago since I first left home…
Lift my spirit high
Hallelujah by and by
My shadow’s low, play me one more song
Then I’m gonna take grandma’s hand
And I’ll join the angel band
Round and round in circles it goes on
Here I am, crowned in glory
Like the going tide
Short on time, long in stories
On my mind

Why Should I Pretend
01:51
|
|||
|
I said I didn’t care
When you told me goodbye
But deep down in my heart dear
Our love will never die
My life on you depends
Why should I pretend, sweetheart
The happiness we shared
The bliss that once was ours
Have turned into a sorrow
That fills my lonely hours
My heart will never mend
Why should I pretend, sweetheart
I used to try to picture life without you
I thought that I could find somebody new
But now that you are gone there is no night there is no dawn
My world begins and ends with you
Our castles in the air
Have tumbled at my feet
Please help me to rebuild them
And make my life complete
My love will never end
Why should i pretend, sweetheart

Ready
03:48

i don’t want to stop for nothing, but it’s hard
every time the wheels start turning, i get off
but i haven’t been seeing
anybody else lately
i used to feel right at home on my own
till you showed up
i’m ready for your love
i’m ready to open up
cause you’re the one i’ve been thinking of
and i’m ready to show you love
baby let me tell you something, i’m really trying
to stop tripping on the future honey, change my mind
and now you’re filling the colors
in between the lines that i draw
and though i know nothing lasts forever
just like birds of a feather
we fly much higher together
and i feel something deep in my bones, from up above
i’m ready for your love
i’m ready to open up
started from the bottom
cleaning up the mess i made
cause this don’t come around that often
so i’ll try, try to give when i take
i’m ready for your love
i’m ready to open up
you’re the one i’m thinking of
and i’m ready to show you love
it’ll just be the two of us
i’m ready to show you love

Soon Come
03:08

Maybe it’s time to take back
The things we left unsaid
Cause we ain’t never gonna get back
This moment after our sun has set
Maybe it’s time to talk to
The voices in my head
Cause it’s like the very first day at the School of Athens
Every time I try to take a step
So I try to talk to god
She smiles and tells me boy
Just close your eyes and open up some
So I try to try my best
Take some and leave the rest
Don’t second guess what you are made of
Soon come, soon come
Used to turn a blind eye
Within and up above
Now I don’t need no other signs
Now I am ready for your love
So I try to talk to god
She smiles and tells me boy
Just close your eyes and open up some
So I try to try my best
Take some and leave the rest
Don’t second guess where it all came from
Soon come, soon come
