Where the Highway Ends 04:04

Little girl I gotta say You're so unusual, you Got lost in a sea of faithlessness And the waves keep on coming crashin’ through And where the highway ends And where the new dawn breaks I have seen the promised land No longer must you wait No longer must you wait Brother oh brother So many battles fought through time Standing so closely beside you Who knows where the days new danger lies And where there's a lending hand Your blood runs holy in my veins Searching for the promised land No longer must we wait No longer must we wait The bye and bye, how the time does fly The season changes and the legend dies Left alone to try a millions times Then there you are right by my side Once over the days grow longer The stars in the sky are born anew in faith The highways end is growing closer No longer must I wait No longer must I wait

Come on Out (and Play) 04:18

Don’t tell me that it’s over Don’t tell me that you don’t care You can’t fool me with tough talk Or a blank stare So what if you missed the summer And your winter just won’t end You can’t stay inside all your life Or get stuck playing pretend Don’t let your tears wash away to sea Don’t forget you’re alive, just be Come on out and play Come on out and play Don’t go hiding that pretty face Hiding away won’t keep the pain at bay So come on out and play Come on out and play Feel that sun upon your face Come on out and play Don’t tell me that it’s nothing Or that it no longer hurts you I can see in your eyes something darker inside I ain’t no fool Don’t listen to those sad songs Comfort won’t come from lust We’re both holding out something better Darlin’ it’s heaven or bust Don’t let your tears wash away to sea Don’t forget you’re alive, just be Come on out and play Come on out and play Don’t you go hiding away Tomorrow can be a better yesterday So come on out and play Come on out and play Feel that sun upon your face Come on out and play Come on out and play Come on out and play Tomorrow can be a better yesterday Get out of your own way Come on out and play Come on out and play Don’t go hiding that pretty face Hiding away won’t keep the pain at bay Come on out and play Come on out and play Don’t you go hiding away Tomorrow can be a better yesterday So come on out and play Come on out and play What do ya say Won’t you come on out, come on out and…

The Losin' Kind 04:06
lyrics

Well you can't sleep at night in a cold empty bed When you get up in the morning your eyes are half dead When will all your pain and suffering vanish into the air So when the lights go out you close your eyes like I'm there Well don't scream in the valley Don't bathe in the sea Don't ever think for one moment You'd ever be without me And don't think I'm too far behind Even something good comes to the losin' kind When you get up in the morning and have something to eat Get ready for work and jump in the drivers seat When you look in the mirror, you shy and turn away You can't help but run back to me at the end of each day Don't try and take on the mountains When you can't make it up the hill Don't try and take on the world When you don't know which illusions real And don't forget about the ties that bind Cause something better's coming to the losin' kind... Don't worry darlin' it's gonna be alright Don't worry little girl we'll make it through the night You look at me sometimes with such hurt in your eyes And I don't ask why, you come to me when you cry You come home in the evening but the house is bare Waiting and waiting to come home to somebody who cares Someone that brings light into your life to be happy when you're home Cause a broken family is just as good as being alone Don't forget to bring water to the desert Don't be counting on the rain Remember what it felt like When you fell in love with me again A love that renews it's self a million times Cause the grass is always greener for the losin' kind Even something good comes to the losin’ kind Something better’s comin’ around to the losin’ kind Baby you and me, we’re the losin’ kind

Isabella 06:29
lyrics

Tonight the stars are burnin’ bright As we lie here in wait The night alive with laughter Two lovers waiting in vain Darling what's the use Of us saying goodnight The dream only comes alive When out goes the lights Isabella My principassa The darkness you’ve come to know only exists in your mind Isabella My principassa The dreams will come, the pain will ease with time Now dreams are a funny thing So many you'll never reach So many that escapes us Some we so desperately need The world may seem against you Then the world's by your side The dreams that matter never slip away If your heart can hold on tight Isabella My principassa Even angels grow tired and weary every now and then Isabella My principassa In your love I’ve been born again The evenings light becomes the dawn of tomorrow The winds tonight will last through the pain and the sorrow As our worlds collide like an ocean wave Crashing onto the shore Naked and ashamed With the darkness over head They may keep us down darlin' But we ain't out yet So don't be afraid to dream For I'll be here by your side Reach for the stars Cause tomorrow the sun may rise Isabella My principassa That darkness you’ve come to know only exists in your mind Isabella My principassa The dreams will come, the pain will ease with time Isabella My principassa Even angels grow tired and weary every now and then Isabella My principassa In our love we’ve been born again

Butterfly 03:55

Yeah once I was young, once I was naive Once I was searching for something special inside of me I was waiting in vain, I was waiting on a prayer Suddenly time stopped and you were there My butterfly Butterfly My butterfly Butterfly Back in high school, Jenny was the girl The girl with that smile, that could stop the whole damn world Well I was young, searching for livin' proof My heart pounded as you came into the room Like a butterfly Butterfly My butterfly Butterfly Lately I feel, like I've got a grasp Ain't worried about my future, and I'm done livin' in the past Out of the air, the butterfly lands on my hand And I promised to love you the best that I can My butterfly Butterfly My butterfly Butterfly

It Ain't Easy 04:19

It ain't easy to be miserable It ain't easy to see evil inside yourself It ain't easy to be angry at the world It ain't easy to have faith in nothing at all Save me from the pain I seek Drain me of the misery Find me a little dignity The walls are closin’ in It ain't easy to deny my lungs air It ain't easy to laugh smile and cry It ain't easy to pretend that I care It ain't so easy to take your own life Save me from the pain I seek Drain me of the misery Find me a little dignity The walls are closin’ in It ain't easy to enjoy the daylight It ain't easy to for me to love who I am It ain't easy to fix the ties that bind It ain't easy to pretend I don't love you damn it Save me from the pain I seek Drain me of the misery Find me a little dignity The walls, the walls Save me from the pain I seek Drain me of the misery Find me a little dignity The walls are closin’ in

I Am Not 05:01
lyrics

To me like a small rolling wave And you tell me That your soul my love can save Are there answers To why you wish me to behave You tell me of the promise But heaven’s just a darkened cave I am not a saint Nor by any means a man condemned I just feel like nothing remains Of me when your gone And life goes on Are you waiting for Jesus Are you wishing upon a star Are you searching for salvation Amongst your bloody scars Are you thinking of reason To why we are who we say we are You spend your life tryin’ to measure the distance Only to find out one day that heavens just too far I am not your hero And I can't be the man you want me to be I can’t walk no line I can’t raise you up from your knees I have lost my way I’ve become ruled by doubt and dear But the only time I'm not scared Is when I feel you near Is this a failure Was this world another idea on a list Are we truly in devoted sweetie Or just kidding ourselves about this From night time comes daylight As we make our way through the ocean mist I lose you in the confusion But on the breeze I still feel your kiss I am not your hero I won’t be risking my life on these sands I am not your savior I don’t have the stars under my command Take this moment, and come close Whisper to me you understand That beneath this hollow skin Somewhere beats the heart of a man

My Bed is Empty 05:02
lyrics

Here I stand Just another broken man I walk the lonely providence Of the New Jersey sands I've been searching For some kind of faith in you As the snow falls From a perfect sky of blue My bed is empty Cause you're not here My heart is heavy I need to feel your near, feel you near I got a broken heart That used to beat for you I used to have A place that I could run to I come home from work Just a few hours late You're sitting on the bed With your make up running down your face My bed is empty Cause you're not here My heart is heavy I need to feel your near, feel you near I miss the laugh that brightened the room And the warmth of your holy blood I miss the way you used to hold me And the tenderness of your love I need to feel the moistness of your lips And the calm your touch can bring I need to feel the softness of your skin When you wrap yourself around me My bed is empty Cause you're not here My heart is heavy I need to feel your near, feel you near My bed is empty My bed is empty My bed is empty

Goodbye Love 07:08

Summer, just around the corner Nature is reborn from the dirt A summer, to share with another Our orphaned ashes returned to the Earth As I lay me down to sleep I pray my heart you will keep Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, good luck Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, my love Your suicide, has played out in my mind The sins and my finger print on the blade On every kiss, I feel the shame from it And now blood and bone is all that remains As I lay me down to sleep I pray my heart you will keep Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, good luck Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, my love As I lay me down to sleep I pray my heart you will keep Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, good luck Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, my love Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, good luck Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, my love Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, good luck Goodbye, goodbye my love Goodbye love, my love
