Like The Sun

Behind my wall
The boy is small
But can’t you see, it’s still me
Behind my wall
Behind my years
Are all my fears
And they always win, that’s the way it’s been
All my fears
But you and me are like the sun
We’re not made like everyone
I use to fear where I was from
‘Cause you and me are like the sun
Behind the door
The face I once wore
But I can’t pretend, again and again
Behind the door

Something More
04:12
|
|||
There’s something in your eye
That I’ve seen before
It’s something that I just can’t ignore
And it’s hanging off you like some clothes you wore
Unless you change and come back to shore
There’s an early morning choir outside your door
It’s drowning out the light and all the bore
And I dreamed I died again like so many times before
Unless I change and come back to shore
The ancient art belongs to none
The ever-changing heart belong to some
And they'll hunt you down and then they’ll steal your roar
Untie those chains and come back to shore
I’ve been kneeling and I’m keeping my ear to the floor
And I’m bleeding out the meaning of what we were before
I just want something more
There’s something in your life you can’t afford
Once that feeling comes you’ll want more
It’ll shake your drum and it’ll break your core
It can never be like it was before
I’ve been kneeling now I’m keeping my ear upon the floor
And I’m bleeding out the feeling of what I was before
Sick of being without meaning I know there’s something more
I just want something more
I know there’s something more

In nineteen eighty-three
That’s when it came to me
I dig like I’ve done before
I know these words, I’ve heard these chords
Like a ringing in my ear
We all know that we’ve been here
In nineteen eighty-three
That’s when it came to me
I won’t forget the light
Hanging on a dream
It’s where you won’t find me
I dig again like I’ve done before
I know these words, I’ve heard these chords
Like a quiet ringing in my ear
We all know that we’ve been here
Hanging from a tree
I won’t forget the light
No don’t forget
There’s a sacred chord
That I’ve heard before
And I can’t ignore again
Hanging on a dream
Hanging on a dream

Don't Hang Me On
03:30
|
|||
Love’s like a pocket
It keeps your hands warm
But I’ve launched all my rockets
And lost all my wars
I’ve tried to say sorry
To make amends
But the way that you’re arching
I just can’t bend
Or try and pretend
So believe me or leave me
But don’t hang me on
Is it too late for sorry?
Now that you’ve gone
I guess I was wrong
Don’t hang me on
Don’t hang me on
Oh Mercy I need you
I’ll call on you soon
But can you lead me
Back to my room
And safe in my womb?
Don’t hang me on
(I’ll call on you soon)

Was I Wrong
03:47
|
|||
There ain’t no magic or ghosts in the attic
Whispering healers, and karma dealers
Old town wives tales, drunk beds and hangnails
Widow makers and cosmic fakers
Holy roller roll me slower
A tuneless choir, old man liar
I’m a feeler, a steeler wheeler
A midnight teaser, a ballroom squeezer
I’m a liar, a stranger denier
Am I wrong?
Was I wrong?
Am I wrong?
Was I wrong?
Old town hoedown, old dog, dry hound
East bound, west bound
Slow down Ezra Pound
High school dreamer, bedroom creamer
Small town schmoozer, three time loser
I’m no liar, just a strange denier
Am I wrong?
Was I wrong?

Age Of Emotion
02:38
|
|||
I am an agent of emotion
In this soft commotion
A bottomless crater
A lover not a hater
I’m a memory breaker
A foreign imitator
A distant jubilator
A pretender not a faker
But I’m so out of touch
Yes I’m so out of touch
I’m a primitive feeler
A rock ‘n’ roll healer
A late blooming wheeler
A never ending dreamer
Still an age of emotion
A full case of devotion
Just a soft communicator
I’m a lover not a taker
But I’m so out of touch
Yes I’m so out of touch
But I’m so out of touch

Do You Remember
03:48
|

Mama do you remember
All the thunder every night?
It lit the room so bright
Mama do you remember
Was it dark, was it light,
Was it morning, was it night?
I’ll always remember that feeling inside
I’ll never forget it my whole life
All my life
It’s stuck inside
Mama can you remember
All the feelings that we’d had?
And we’d keep it all inside
It’s here, it’s there
It’s everywhere
In everyone
It’s in the air
Mama, do you remember
All those feelings that we had?
We lit the room so bright
I’ll always remember that feeling inside
I’ll never forget it my whole life
All my life
My whole life, all my life
Do you remember?
Can you remember?
(I know I’ll always remember)

Maladroit
03:56
|
|||
If you wake up on the ceiling
The sun comes, no warning
All you remember is the feeling
Of turning and turning
All my mistakes were for God’s sake, and you
Face to face with everything you feel, and do
If we could only fake time
There’s six white horses and they’re swimming, Jingle jangle
You can’t feel it but you’re sinking
So turn back the steering
‘Cause what you’ve got is just a feeling
It ain’t got no meaning
All my mistakes were for God’s sake, and you
Face to face with everything you fear, and do
If we could only fake time...

Jesus Christ
03:07
|
|||
You say you’ve got a heavy heart
But nothing’s on your mind
And you don’t want to shake the apple cart
But you’re always left behind
Like a tape you forgot to rewind
You say that you just don’t belong
Been like this all your life
You know there’s something going wrong
It’s never felt quite right
Here it comes again, Jesus Christ
Here it comes again, hold on tight
The saddest sound
You ever found
Is still bound to you
You say that you don’t wanna harp on it anymore
And there’s no mathematics to the heart
And there is no cure
Here it comes again, Jesus Christ
Here comes again, Jesus Christ
Here comes again hold on tight
Here it come

Don't Forget The Light
03:05
|
|||
Deep in the mire I saw the light
Hanging from the night
Waiting for the bright to come
Deep in the sky the birds were low
They were moving slow
Waiting on a crow to turn
Then the night comes on again
And it goes back to the end
Dark is the light that keeps the night
Hanging on a pin
Waiting to begin again
Then the night comes on again
And we go back to the end
My only friend
Remember me now and then
Hiding in the trees
Hair the colour of the leaves
And don’t forget the light
