The Heavens

So close
Yet so far
You reach out
To catch a falling star
You can feel it on your fingers but its slipping away
So you fall on your knees and fold your hands and you pray
To someone
To hold on
As we look out at the night
I wonder if there might be more than we can see
Something more than you and me
Out there beyond the stars
I realize how far we are
But we can make it if we try
We will make it if we try
To the edge of the heavens we begin to embark
We can feel it getting colder heading into the dark
But we'll shine on
Til our time's gone
Our heads are getting tired at the end of the day
We're looking at each other but have nothing to say
It's been so long
But we'll hold on
Can't help but wonder why
We hold it all inside
We gotta laugh and love and cry
If we want to feel alive
When I see you in the dark
I realize how close we are
We can make it if we try
We will make it we try
As we look out at the night
I wonder if there might be more than we can see
Something more than you and me
Out there beyond the stars
I realize how far we are
But we can make it if we try
We will make it if we try

Leave Me Lonely

You were out for gold
And I was out for blood
The stories that we told
Are buried in the mud
The sins for what I say
If history's revealed
Then nothing that I know
Could ever make you heal
I wanna learn to love you again
But I don't think that you could ever repair
The deep cracks and the fault lines
That burn on in both our minds
I wanna try to trust you again
But I don't think that you could ever be my friend
It's gotta start there first and I didn't rehearse my plan
Cause I don't wanna be lost in fear
Speak up so you hear me clearly
I will make it alright out here
Even if you leave me lonely
If you could find the time
And I could spare my mind
We could waste our lives
And find out why we cry
We went down with the wreckage (your picture in my frame)
We were weak and neglected (pretended that you stayed)
We felt cold and rejected (never would have known)
We were wounded and infected (that you would go away)
I wanna learn to love you again
But I don't think that you could ever repair
The deep cracks and the fault lines
That burn on in both our minds
I wanna try to trust you again
But I don't think that you could ever be my friend
It's gotta start there first and I didn't rehearse my plan
Cause I don't wanna be lost in fear
Speak up so you hear me clearly
I will make it alright out here
Even if you leave me lonely

Round And Round

Is this life passing me by?
I go to sleep with a tear in my eye
I can’t believe that’s what they think
I’ll just shut em out, oh God I need a drink
Round and round we go
We never really know
What’s real and what’s pretend
Where I start and where you end
When to stop and when we can begin again
Round and round we go
Never again, is what you said
I need more of that like a hole in the head
But here we are in that same old place
With you and your old friend standing face to face
Round and round we go
We never really know
What’s real and what’s pretend
Where I start and where you end
When to stop and when we can begin again
Round and round we go
Round and round we go
We never really know
What’s real and what’s pretend
Where I start and where you end
When to stop and when we can begin again
Round and round we go

I've been
Better than I should've been
And I've seen
Crazy little dreams
There's this one about your hands
And how it pushed right through me
And it's black and it's white
Like in an old time movie
Yeah, yeah
But I'm not really sure
Just where we were going
Or why a bird flew up
To the boat we were rowing
Yeah, yeah
Cause modern life has left you so afraid
Now I see you out there in your hooked on haze
Modern love has left you un-amazed
Well I know we'll see things through, it's just a phase
With your big black eyes
Like clocks in disguise
And the moon was white
And we lost our way again
Yeah, yeah
Cause modern life has left you so afraid
Now I see you out there in your hooked on haze
Modern love has left you un-amazed
Well I know we'll see things through, it's just a phase
