"Deep Water"

 

You find yourself falling down

Your hopes in the sky

But you heart like grape gum on the ground

And you try to find yourself

In the abstractions of religion

And the cruelty of everyone else

And you wake up to realize

Your standard of living somehow got stuck on survive

When you're standing in deep water

And you're bailing yourself out with a straw

And when you're drowning in deep water

And you wake up making love to a wall

Well it's these little times that help to remind

It's nothing without love

You wake up to realize your only friend

Has never been yourself or anybody who cared in the end

That's when suddenly everything fades or falls away

'Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've made

When you're standing in deep water

And you're bailing yourself out with a straw

And when you're drowning in deep water

And you wake up making love to a wall

Well it's these little times that help to remind

It's nothing without love, love, love

It's nothing without love

We've compromised our pride

And sacrificed out health

We have to demand more

Not of each other

But more from ourselves

"Cause when you're standing in deep water

And you're bailing yourself out with a straw

When you're drowning in deep water

And you wake up making love to a wall

Well it's these little times that help to remind

It's nothing without love, love, love

It's nothing without love

It's nothing without love

"What's Simple Is True"

 

Turn to me with frozen lips

Your hands are icy cold

Your eyes burn bright against the frost-bit sky

You never seemed more lovely than you do right tonight

Pale on the horizon

Like leaves frozen in the snow

Our two shadows merge inseparably

Will time stand still if it's pierced with cold

The more I live

The more I know

What's simple is true

I love you

there's a warmth in my heart

It haunts me when you're gone

Mend me to your side and never let go

Say 'Time knows nothing, we'll never grow cold'

The more I live

The more I know

What's simple is true

I love you

Twilight descends on our silhouette

How soon spring comes

How soon spring forgets

I wanna hold time, say it'll never begin

Old man winter be our friend

Old man winter be our friend

'Cause the more I live

The more I know

What's simple is true

What's simple is true

I love, I love you

[timon_matata]

"Hands"

 

If I could tell the world just one thing

It would be that we're all OK

And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful

And useless in times like these

I won't be made useless

I won't be idle with despair

I will gather myself around my faith

For light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small, I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

Poverty stole your golden shoes

It didn't steal your laughter

And heartache came to visit me

But I knew it wasn't ever after

We'll fight, not out of spite

For someone must stand up for what's right

'Cause where there's a man who has no voice

There ours shall go singing

My hands are small I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

I am never broken

In the end only kindness matters

In the end only kindness matters

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

I will get down on my knees, and I will pray

My hands are small I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

My hands are small I know

But they're not yours, they are my own

But they're not yours, they are my own

And I am never broken

We are never broken

We are God's eyes

God's hands

God's mind

We are God's eyes

God's hands

God's heart

We are God's eyes

God's hands

God's eyes

We are God's hands

We are God's hands

"Kiss The Flame"

 

Please love let's make no impartial vow

Let all fall away

That's not crucial now

I want to brave love, one that makes me weak in the knees

I want a crazy, crazy love

One that makes me come undone at the seams

'Cause I'm tired of all these pilgrims, these puritans, these thieves

Of all these unbelievers

who whittle love down at the knees

Let these swift roads destroy themselves

Let the world fall into its sleep

For we shall be spared

We shall be left standing

To face what's left of concrete and honey

Kiss the flame

Let's run with the hunted, the untamed

Kiss the flame

Embrace the faceless, the unnamed

Kiss the flame

There are nightmares on the sidewalks

There are jokes on TV

There are people selling thoughtlessness

with such casualty

But wherefore art thou Romeo

where have all the brave men gone

Show me one man who know his own heart

To him I shall belong

Kiss the flame

Let's run with the hunted, the untamed

Kiss the flame

Embrace the faceless, the unnamed

Kiss the flame

Kiss the flame

Kiss the flame

Please love let's make no impartial vow

[timon_matata]

"Down So Long"

 

Sun sets' cross the ocean

I'm a thousand miles from anywhere

My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen

And the sun acts like she don't even care

The wind blows cold when you reach the top

It feels like someone's face is stuck to the bottom of my shore

I got a plastic Jesus, a cordless telephone for every corner of my room

Got everybody but you telling me what to do

But I've been down so long

Ooh, it can't be longer still

I've been down so long

that the end must be drawing near

I look to everybody but me to answer my prayers

'Til I saw an angel in a bathroom who said she saw no one worth saving anywhere

And a blind man on the corner said it's simple, like flipping a coin

Don't mater what side it lands on if it's someone else's dime

But I've been down so long

Ooh, it can't be longer still

We've been down so long

That the end must be drawing near

I take a trip, I catch a train, I catch a plane

I got a ticket in my hand

And then a man takes my money

And like cattle we all stand

But we've been down so long

Ooh, it can't be longer still

We've been down so long

The end must be . . .

I know the end must be. . .

Oh, I know the end must be drawing near

Oh the end. . .

Oh the end. . .

Oh the end. . .

"Innocence Maintained"

 

Ophelia drowned in the water

Crushed by her own weight Hitler loved little blue eyed boys

And it drove him to hate

Birds always grow silent before the night descends

'Cause nature has a funny way of breaking what does not bend

A hero's torso built of steel and Novocain

His heart a bitter beat inside a bloodless frame

There was a hole inside his soul a manicure could not fill

So he fund himself a ###### to love while daisies choked in the window sill

We've made houses for hatred

It's time we made a place

Where people's souls may be seen and made safe

Be careful with each other

These fragile flames

For innocence can't be lost

It just needs to be maintained

A small town in Ohio

Two boys are filled with violence

And darkness spreads its legs for hate and ignorance

We are given to a god to put our faith therein

But to be forgiven, we must first believe in sin

We've made houses for hatred

It's time we made a place

Where people's souls may be seen and made safe

Be careful with eachother

These fragile flames

For without fear

I want always to feel the wings of grace near

We all will be Christed wen we hear ourselves say

We are that which we pray

We've made houses for hatred

It's time we made a place

Where people's souls maybe seen and made safe

Be careful with each other

These fragile flames

We've built houses for hatred

It's time we made a place

Where people's souls may be seen and made safe

Be careful with each other

These fragile flames

For innocence can't be lost

It just needs to be maintained

"Jupiter"

 

Venus de Milo in her half-baked shell

Understood the nature of love very well

She said, "A good love is delicious, you can't get enough too soon.

It makes you so crazy you want to

swallow the moon."

Oh, oh Jupiter

Oh, oh be still my little heart

Oh, oh love is a flame neither timid nor tame

Take these stars from my crown

Let the years fall down

Lay me out in firelight

Let my skin feel the night

Fasten me to your side

Say it will be soon

You make me so crazy, baby

Could swallow the moon

My hands are two transvelers they've crossed oceans and lands

yet they are too small on the continent of your skin

Wandering, wandering I could spend my life

Traveling the length of your body each night

Oh, oh Jupiter

Oh, oh be still my little heart

Oh, oh love is a flame neither timid nor tame

Take these stars from my crown

Let the years fall down

Lay me out in firelight

let my skin feel the night

Fasten me to your side

And say it will be soon

You make me so crazy, baby

Could swallow the moon

Swallow the moon

Swallow the moon

Swallow the moon

"Fat Boy"

 

Fat boy goes to the pool

See his reflection, doesn't know what to do

He feels little inside and filled with pride

Oh, fragile flame

No one sees the same

fat boy goes about his day

Trying to think of funny things to say

Like, "This is just a game I play"

And "I like me this way"

Oh, fragile flame

When no one feels the same

Hush, sleep, don't think, just eat

You daddy's little boy

You mama's pride and joy

You know they love ya

But not because they hold ya

Fat boy says "Wouldn't it be nice

If I could melt myself like ice

Or outrun my skin and just be pure wind"

Oh, fragile flame

Sometimes I feel the same

[timon_matata]

"Enter From The East"

 

I went out a-wandering

Beneath an unknown sky

the heavens al shook violently

He caught my eye

Strange fruit fell

It struck me to the core

My heart became a single flame

It wanted nothing more

Stranger, enter from the east

Stranger, step inside this place

Oh, and own me, own me,

The clock became a bullet hole

Cruel and unkind

It hurt me with its second hand

Alone another night

Stranger, enter from the east

Stranger, step inside this place

Blue, is that you?

Well, don't bother knocking on my door this time

Blue, go be true for someone else

There's no room inside this heart of mine

My heart has four empty rooms

Three wait for lightning and one waits for you

I must have you all to myself

Feel the full weight of your skin

I'll hollow out my insides

To place you in

Stranger, enter from the East

Stranger, step inside this place

Oh, and own me, own me

"Barcelona"

 

Barcelona where the winds all blew

And the churches don't have windows but the graveyards do

Me and my shadow are wrestling a gain

Look out stranger, there's a dark cloud moving in

But if you could hear the voice in my heart it would tell you

I'm afraid I am alone

Won't somebody please hold me, release me

Show me the meaning of mercy

Let me loose

Fly, let me fly, let me fly

Super paranoid, I'm blending, I'm blurring, I'm bleeding into the scenery

Loving someone else is always so much easier

But I hole my self hostage in the morror

But If you could hear the voice in my heart it would tell you

I'm tired of feeling this way

God, won't you please hold me, release me

show me the meaning of mercy

Let me loose

Let me fly, let me fly

I won't be held down, I wont be held back

I will lead with my faith

The red light had been following me

But don't worry mother

It's no longer my gravity

hold me, release me

Show me the meaning of mercy

Let me fly, let me fly, let me fly

[timon_matata]

"Life Uncommon"

 

Don't worry mother, it'll be alright

And don't worry sister, say your prayers and sleep right

It'll be fine lover of mine

It'll be just fine

Lend your voices only to sounds of freedom

No longer lend you strength to that which you wish to be free from

Fill your lives with love and bravery

And you shall lead a live uncommon

I've heard you anguish

I've heard you hearts cry out

We are tired, we are weary, but we aren't worn out

set down you chains, until only faith remains

Set down you chains

And lend your voices only to sounds of freedom

No longer lent your strength to that

which you wish to be free from

Fill you lives with love and bravery

And we shall lead a life uncommon

There are plenty of people who pray for peace

But if praying were enough it would have come to be

Let your words enslave no one and the heavens will hush themselves

To hear out voices ring out clear

with sounds of freedom

sounds of freedom

Come on you unbelievers, move out of the way

there is a new army coming and we are armed with faith

To live, we must give

To live

And lend out voices only to sounds of freedom

No longer lend out strength to that which we with to be free from

Fill your lives with love and bravery

And we shall lead...

Lend out voices only to sounds of freedom

No longer lent out strength to that which we with to be free from

Fill you lives with love and bravery

And we shall lead a life uncommon

[timon_matata]

"Do You"

 

Hey, you say you like the way the cowboys tip their hats and say,

"How's it goin' ma'am?"

But you're never quite clear if their glares are sincere

Or really only just second hand

To you it's all voices, its a lavender haze

The man is a marvel, but it's a shame about his brains

But that's OK

You say "he's got straight teeth and it's good sex"

you look to the sky

You look to the man

you claim innocence and not to understand

Or do you, do you?

There's a big mad wearing a white suit and patent leather shoes

he want to take his monkeys to see the kids at the zoo

'Cause the gypsy on the corner said

"Hey, Mister you can't lose."

And it's your first day at the track

you feel that heat on your back

We all want to find a way to beat the system

Find some rhythm in the madness

Get down on your knees and pray

Say, "I'll do whatever you want, God

Just let me have my way"

Well will you, will you?

come on all you merry men

rally your cry

dance with the devil for tomorrow we'll surely

Hey, hey blow the men down

Just like the girls today with nothing to say

No more pigtails and pony rides

They're sophisticated

They sip on lattes

And have their eyes on a bigger prize

We shake our fists and say, "Well good golly we're mad

That God kills children with our very own hands"

We claim innocence and not to understand

Or do we, do we?

come on all you merry men

Rally your cry

dance with the devil for tomorrow we'll surely

Hey, hey blow the men down

Blow the men down

Hey

"Absence Of Fear"

 

Inside my skin there is this space

It twists and turns

It bleeds and aches

Inside my heart there's an empty room

It's waiting for lightning

It's waiting for you

And I am wanting

And I am needing you here

Inside the absence of fear

Muscle and sinew

Velvet and stone

This vessel is haunted

It creaks and moans

My bones call to you

In their separate skin

I make myself translucent

To let you in, for

I am wanting

And I am needing of you here

Inside the absence of fear

there is this hunger

This restlessness inside of me

and it knows that you're no stranger

you're my gravity

My hands will adore you through all darkness aim

They will lay you out in moonlight

And reinvent your name

For I am wanting you

And I am needing you here

I need you near

Inside the absence of fear

The Little Bird ( BONUS TRACK )

 

here's a little bird somebody sent

Down to the Earth to live on the wind

Blowing on the wind

And she sleeps on the wind

This little bird somebody sent.

 

Light and fragile and feathered sky blue

Thin and graceful, the sun shining through

She flies so high up in the sky

Way out of reach of human eyes.

 

Light and fragile and feathered sky blue

Thin and graceful, the sun shining through

She flies so high up in the sky

Way out of reach of human eyes.

 

Light and fragile, she's feathered sky blue

Thin and graceful the sun shining through

And the only time that she touches ground

Is when that little bird, little bird

Is when that little bird, little bird

Is when that little bird dies.
