Will I wake up
From this sleeping dream
Dragon smoke-rings Mother,
Reach for me
Scratching shadows
On my childhood sleep
An endless opening
What may be will be
On me, mercy on me, on me, mercy (merci)
Sleep for seven years
Afraid of my dreams
Angry voices calling
Whispering
I love you through my guilt
It’s how I learned to teach
Surviving love that haunts me
Remembering
We carry our childhood through our lives.

Shadow
04:03
|

|
Maybe there is no sky
Maybe there is no rain
Maybe there is no world without end
And maybe there is nothing
In the Shadow of Love
Maybe there is no Love
Maybe we’re not afraid
Maybe there is no God to hate
And all of His Word is fake
In the Shadow of Love
I hope that we will find faith
It's faith that can teach us to love.
Maybe there is no sound
(And maybe there is something)
Maybe there was no fall
(And maybe we’re alone)
Maybe there is no life before death
Maybe you’re not here at all
In the Shadow of Love
(Maybe there's no Maybe)

Dad:
It was late in the afternoon and the sky was clear
When I felt the tears roll up in my eyes
You said what you had to say
And then you turned to walk away
And took the first steps to walk out of my life
Son:
I was four years old when my world was changed
I still don’t like to talk about it
Everything was boxed up
Then we moved away
Nothing ever really felt like home again
Daughter:
When I was nine, I can’t get it out of my mind
Mom and Dad went their different ways
I was forced to choose and I was the first to lose
When everything I knew went up in flames
All:
Our love is like what’s left after a wildfire
Do you remember all the things that we burned down
I hope someday I’ll learn to understand you
'Cause it’s hard to make much sense of this now

Confession
04:44
|
|||
|
I have not recognized Your name
Nor Your love for me
Hear this burden I speak of
I have not given You the honor and the glory
And I have dared to hate Your love
Lift these words up to the sky
Please remember me
I have polluted and poisoned the things You give me
And I have learned how to despise
I have offered You the smallest broken nothings
And I believe my own disguise
From the rising of the sun until the darkness falls on me
I can’t undo this man who I have come to be
I have not done the things I know that I should have done
I have done much that I regret
I have not loved you.
I fail You with my thoughts, words and my own deeds.
Have mercy on me. Please do not forget.
I have spoken death to my soul when I speak against You
And I have stood tall with the proud
I have believed there is no point in following and seeking for You
I have lived as though there is no God
I live as though there is no God
Lift these words up to the sky
Please remember me
Lift this prayer and hear this cry
Please remember me

A Girl With Rain
05:11
|
|||
|
She needs life inside
But the wind blows there
She has fire in her eyes
But she does not know it
We all crave the holy
But we hate the separation
I taste the rain tonight
As I follow the nameless
I'll wait for You again
The wind makes me hungry
There is no edge of You
And no time for reasons
She's weighed down by these Unspeaking intuitions
A night of silence
The unmeasured voice
A girl with rain
Alone in her dark night
A girl with rain
She knows what is right
God, You speak in tongues

Love is Only Love
05:01
|
|||
|
It is a deep breath
You only feel it when you breathe
It is a deep word
You cannot say it when you speak
It is a circular motion
You only have it when it returns
It is a raging fire, love
You only feel it when it burns
We believe that it is the center of our life
It’s not a feeling
Doesn’t mean you cannot feel it
Not a religious thing
Doesn’t mean you can’t believe in it
We trade our life for it
We live and die for it to grow
We’ll stand and fight for it
We only hold it if we let go
We believe that it is the meaning of our life
Love is everything and
Love is nothing more than
Love is only love
Love, it is not God and
Love is not romance and
Love you cannot make and
Love you cannot fake it
Love is something that we all must do
Do you love?
We all believe in it
We all have need of it
We believe that it is the reason for our life

Little One, may you grow
To be happy and healthy
May you always have plenty,
May you Dream
Little One, may your life
Be filled up with living
Be filled up with giving
May you bring love
Little One
Little One, may you learn
To be Faithful and lovely
Helpful and holy
And be wise
Little One, may you know
The strength of the patient
The calm of the gracious
May you find life
Little One
May you sing
May you dance
May you laugh in joy
May you know
Happiness
May you believe in Hope
Little One

Mad
04:38
|
|||
|
I love you, but you make me mad
I love you, but you make me sad, sometimes
Whenever I stand in the way of this thing that we have
... It’s too sad ...
I love you, but you make me mad
The things you want I want to give
But I don’t have them in my hands
The times you start
And then you stop
Why can’t you finish all the things you plan
No one gets to me
The way that you can get to me
I love you, but you make me mad...
You want my time, I want yours, too
I can’t control it any more than you
To see our dreams We both must sleep
Then we can speak in the morning
No one gets to me
The way that you can get to me
I love you, but you make me mad...
Only a person in your heart
Can drive you right outside your head
Look where we fall after love

Baby Forgive Me
04:01
|
|||
|
I don’t even know how to begin
There’s everything to say
When my baby came into my life
And everything else fades
How many times was she looking at me,
And I was busy looking somewhere else
Ah, Baby forgive me
I won’t even begin to pretend
That I can understand
How my baby can fill up my world
And hold me in her hand
How many times was she reaching for me,
And I was busy doing something else?
Ah, Baby forgive me
I don’t want to miss a magic moment
With my baby
I don’t want a tear to go unnoticed
On my baby...Ah, no.
There is nothing as sweet in the world
As the sound of her voice
When her words are a song in my heart
And my soul rejoices
How many times was she calling for me
And I was busy listening to something else?
Ah, Baby forgive me

Nothing
03:17
|
|||
|
Everyone who has sold themselves for sin
Want to buy themselves back over again
Telling the same sad stories over again
The future is not a secret from the beginning
All these years change nothing
Day after day, the same routine
Doubt can drive us back to sleep
Faith in the Truth is not group hypnosis
The breath of the wind will whisper peace
All these years change nothing
There is a language of words that cannot speak
Speak the Word and I'll wake up from this sleep
Now that I'm at the center of my life
The darkness of my heart turning white
All These years change...
Telling the same sad stories to children
The future will be here when we begin
All these years change nothing

She's So Blue
04:52
|
|||
|
It’s a stained glass world
And it doesn’t come cheap
But it didn’t cost her a nickel
She walked in right out off of the street
And she sat down
And she looked around
Some words are truth
Some words are lies
She thinks knows the difference
But look her right into the eyes of her facade
You just can't win an argument with God
She tries so hard
But you just can't win an argument with God
When she finds that it's hard to believe
In everything she knows is true
Lead her back to The Way
She can believe in everything that leads to You
She's so blue
Well it all sounds right
But it all goes wrong
Standing on the science
With her faith under a microscope too long
And that’s not where it belongs
It can’t be true
She knows better than that
There’s no way she can believe it
It would be completely wrong and pretty odd
To think she has a bigger heart than God
She tries so hard
But you just can't win an argument with God
It’s a tear-stained world
And it doesn’t come cheap
But it doesn’t cost a nickel
If she has faith and can believe when it is hard, find a way to know it in your heart
She tries so hard
But you’ll never win an argument with God.
She tries too hard
She's so blue

Amen for the Day
07:44
|
|||
|
When the darkness ends
Then the day begins in a moment all alone
Please remember me
And forget my weakness where I will let you down
Say another alleluia, amen for the day
When I am afraid
When my strength has lost all the will to follow through
Say another alleluia, amen for the day
My eyes look for You
My hands reach for You
I will to always search for You
When my breath is gone and my life is over
Say another alleluia, amen for the day
When You will return and the new life comes
Say another alleluia, amen for the day
