Don't Wonder

It wasn't right, what you wanted me to be
And I can't feel bad, for not seeing what even you don't see

Of Blinds
03:24
|
|||
|
Do you waste your words,
or speak the truth?
Do you yearn for all that's new?
Do you have visions for yourself,
or are you close to your roots?
Idleness, faultlessness
We're all beggars here,
make it clear
Do you walk around, wishing you were bound?
Or do you live it through and through

Strangers in Love
03:22
|
|||
|
Not dead is some kind of health
But you meet me here
All the more to see me heal
Not throwing a snake behind your back
Even the wicked can handle that

Sleeping with a Memory
03:03
|
|||
|
Leave your stall
I've left your faults
But I'm buried again

Out on
03:30
|
|||
|
I'm down in the distance
between love and hate
I now know you have to love
what you can't escape
Do you think its hard to care,
that it is too late?
Well don't forget yourself
or cross off your name
Do you revile?
Put you hands on the cog
It's the face of God
Interacting is a good and inspired activity

Once More
03:26
|
|||
|
I won't take advantage, of a lost companion
It wouldn't do me good to live a lie
Freeze once more in time, I'll make believe you're square of mind
I'll accept you there forever as I am blind
You have pierced right through me, you have understood me
And I hope you will accept these things
Belief is just a word, of friendship I have heard
I'll believe in you though my vision be blurred
"Look once more, and I'll shake your world"
You might as well have said it to me
Your honesty disarms me, your call to others consumes me
It would do no good to fight with you
At once you give nothing, and expect just as much
fairness is the cornerstone of your heart
I saw you and I wanted you, hard word rang true
And I will forever know your name
You so deep with your time, not one second of eternity could I find
from you wasted

Dear Friend
02:46
|
|||
|
Are you the one I've dreamed of
from days of my youth?
Before I hid from light,
before my sorrow was my truth?
Start fair, begin again
I'll load it up, give you good attention
Rose of my heart,
where was it you went?
I won't see you bought and sold
|

In My Defense
03:50
|
|||
|
My self control was never very good
You ask more of me than you know you should, I guess
I will formally complain
All right, fighting the good fight
I went inside, turned my records on all night
Sometimes these feelings come so smartly dressed
I have selective hearing fits
|
||||
10. |
Give in Take
03:35
|
|||
|
Nothing is stronger than
Your will to live again
I'm here alone but I
Do not give in
Shed off your sin again
Be down the road and then
Protect the faintest dim
And do not give in
|
||||
11. |
Just Go Home
03:20
|
|||
|
You can't love your neighbor
If you don't love yourself
The happiness you will find
can't depend on anyone else
