Calculate my smile and practice my stance,
and hold ... two ... three.
I feel out of place,
so alien in my skin.
But I know will come a time,
a time to break, and to create
a time to love, a time to hate,
a time to shine, a time to hide.
Rehearsed my lines to death.
No plan 'B'.
I am sticking to the script.
It's easier this way,
to simply say nothing.
But I know will come a time,
a time to break, and to create
a time to love, a time to hate,
a time to hide, a time to shine.

Broke the Code
03:16

Lit the match.
Burned the bridge.
My eyes are red and tired from staring at the fire.
The fever finally broke.
Much to my surprise,
After years of silence,
I woke to realize ...
How strangely I missed you.
Touched a nerve.
Broke the code.
I'm not the same.
Somehow no one knows.
The fever finally broke.
Much to my surprise,
After years of silence,
I woke to realize ...
How strangely I missed you.

Lost Myself
07:56

Knew a man.
He'd seen too much in Sudan.
Fell out of touch.
Head in hands, can't understand,
"I lost myself ... God, I think I need some help."
Was a time I knew my name,
A time I was my father's son,
when I belonged and I was whole,
knew it deep down in my soul.
Was a time that I believed
In something more, in destiny.
If only I could find my self again.
Helplessly felt it unfold.
A piece of me turned to stone.
I lost myself ... I lost myself.
Now everything is rapidly unraveling.
Was a time I knew my name,
A time I was my father's son,
when I belonged and I was whole,
knew it deep down in my soul.
Was a time that I believed
In something more, in destiny.
If only I could find my self again.
Who do you want be?
Open your eyes.
I lost myself.
Was a time I knew my name,
A time I was my father's son,
when I belonged and I was whole,
knew it deep down in my soul.
Was a time that I believed
In something more, in destiny.
If only I could find my self again.

Deep in my Veins
02:40
|

I'm not afraid of being forgotten.
I'm afraid I'll forget.
I'm afraid it's all a dream,
In some one else's head.
You're deep in my veins.
You're under my skin.
You're all that I am.
You're where I end and where I began.
I'm not afraid to be alone.
I'm not afraid to be in pain.
I'm afraid I won't be strong,
when you need me to be.
You're deep in my veins.
You're under my skin.
You're all that I am.
You're where I end and where I began.

Climate change.
Global economic collapse.
Influenza pandemic.
Terrorism.
The nuclear threat.
Eroding social values.
Ignorance and greed.
We have such potential.
But will we survive to see it through?
I have concerns.
I have doubt.
I am perplexed.
But ...
I am amazed.
I have hope.
I believe.
We are all so precious.
So brilliant.
So beautiful.
We have such potential.
But will we survive to see it through?
I am perplexed.
I have concerns.
I have doubt.
But ...
I am amazed.
I have hope.
I believe.

Fall on Me
04:48
|
|||
When the smoke has cleared
and the dust has settled
and the media have all gone home
and there's time to think
and time to grieve,
but time won't heal your soul ...
You can fall on me.
Just fall on me.
When the day is long
and your body - it aches
and your mind - it feels on fire
and it's hard to sleep
and hard to breathe
and hard to still believe ...
You can fall on me.
Just fall on me.
I'm not afraid.
I'm not afraid.
I'm not afraid to be alone.
I'm not afraid to be in pain.
I'm afraid I won't be strong when you need me to be.

July Afternoon
04:05
|
|||
In a big wooden church, in a small steel town, at the edge of the sea
Dressed in a gown, and pressed in a suit, for all eyes to see
An occasion of hope, the opening scene, of life-long play
I made up my mind, no question this time, forever I’ll stay
Say you’ll marry me, say you will
I’ll move mountains to hold you
I’ll be your ’til the end of time
Feel my love all around you
July afternoon, she’s white as the moon, on the lakes of Bras d’Or
I’ve taken a bride, she’s here by my side, and I can’t want for more
It’s taken some time, some laughin’, some cryin’, but now I am sure
I’ll look in here eyes, I’ll giver her my heart, I’ll give her my soul
Say you’ll marry me, say you will
I’ll move mountains to hold you
I’ll be your ’til the end of time
Feel my love all around you
In some ancient language
Lost and long extinct
In songs of whales
Hidden in heiroglyphs I think
There is a word
Chiseled in stone and tattooed in ink
There is a word …
… Love
Say you’ll marry me, say you will
I’ll move mountains to hold you
I’ll be your ’til the end of time
Feel my love all around you
