Alibi
I’m trying hard to understand you
And your over-rated state of mind
Sometimes you try to move me to you
And make me believe that it’s all fine
Chorus 1:
And you say you love me, yes you do
But I know who I’m talking to
You left me so lonely and empty
And I don’t need your alibi’s
Cause I can see through all you lies
You say you love me and I’ll need you
But I don’t need to live my life that way, no way
Every storm deserves an ending
And a break to peaceful skies
And every night I pray for my own mending
Chorus 2:
And you say you love me, yes you do
But I know who I’m talking to
You left me so lonely an empty
And I don’t need your alibi’s
Cause I can see through you disguise
You say you love me and I’ll need you
But I don’t need to live my life that way, no way
Parading around like you’re a superstar
Is that who you think you are
The higher you go , yeah, the harder you fall
Chorus 1:
Loss of Words
I’m at a loss,
I’m at a loss of words I really want to say
I’m finding for myself
What can I do
When every road I travel leads me back to you
Instead of somewhere else
I apologize
Chorus:
Cause what I wanted to say
Never came out the way
I wanted it to, I wanted it to
Cause what I wanted to say
Only got in the way
I never meant to hurt you
But I didn’t have a clue
I’m just a man
I’m just a man in need of something better than
I’m finding for myself
You count the cost
For everything you gain there’s always something lost
You’re worth so much more
Listen to my heart whispering
I need you
Chorus
Empty words cannot suffice
I’ve been running from what I know is right
When only Yours are the words of life
Chorus
Every time you come around
Every time I make a sound
Bonded
There’s a place I like to go
Far away where nobody knows
And the sun never goes down
I can lose myself in the light I’ve found
Cause when I’m, I’m in need
It’s your love my heart receives
Chorus:
I bonded with the Son today
And the rays He gave, they light my way child
I bonded with the Son today
And I heard Him say “It’s all right now”
People come, people go
Some leave you when you need them the most
God is love, He longs to be
More than you can believe
Taste, taste and see
That this love, this love is good
Chorus
I bonded with the Son, the Son
I wanna lay everything (down) at Your feet
I wanna see You in my dreams
Speak to me
Take me to a higher place
So I can see
Chorus
All You Got
I heard you say that no one seems to care ‘bout you
It’s in your eyes, you think that life’s unfair to you
Just give it all you got, my friend
Just give it all you got, it’s not the end
Chorus:
Cause you ought know
There’s a reason for these changin’ seasons
God only knows how much your heart can bear
So don’t you let go
Everybody has their up and down times
Everybody needs to know how much they are loved
My friend
So hold on, it’s not the end
As I remember everything you touched
Would turn to gold
You held the secrets
To make your grandest dreams unfold
You were the very best of us all
But the sun that rises, still falls
Chorus
It’s just a love song
Cause everybody needs a friend
I’ll be right here for you
Just a simple prayer
It’s from the bottom of my heart
That He’ll never let you go
Chorus
Spy
I’ve watched you watchin’ me
But I can’t see what you see
You ask me how I feel
But you don’t believe me still
No
Cause what I say
Is here today
And gone tomorrow
Chorus:
You treat me like a spy
When I come around
Just like a private eye
Roaming through your town
You treat me like a spy
And I can’t see why
If only looks could kill
You taunt me
You doubt my faith
Then you shove it in my face
You tempt me
But I won’t bend
You’ve wasted your time again
Yeah
And it’s a shame
Will you ever change
You’re so suspicious
Chorus
You treat me like a…
You treat me like a…
You treat me like a spy
Talk About Jesus
You never told me what you always said
“We’ll be here, we’ll pray for you”
Echoes in my head
I still remember, longing to escape
Like a man in prison chains, is my life in vain
I cry out for you to hear
And I wonder does anybody care
Chorus1:
You talk about Jesus, how He set you free
You talk about Jesus, how He died for me
I don’t understand what you’re talking about
All I see is pain when I look around
All I ever wanted, never wanted me
All the dreams that I lived for have left me incomplete
Now I’m still searching, if I could find the truth
But these voices haunting me have left me so confused
I cry out for you to hear
And I wonder does anybody care
Chorus
When I was cold, did you let me in
When I was hungry, were you my friend
When I was down and out and I needed your hand
Did you see a chance or just a desperate man
Chorus 2:
You talk about Jesus, how He set you free
You talk about a Savior, how He died for me
I don’t understand what you’re talking about
All I feel is pain, please help me now
Oh you say we’re equal, all men are brothers
But why are the rich more equal then others,
Yeah more equal then others
Don’t ask the answers, I’ve only got one
When a man leaves his darkness and follows the Son
American Tragedy
Art is in motion, look around
At the everyday people in everyday towns
Love is an ocean as deep as the sky
Gotta keep our arms open or we’re never gonna fly
Chorus:
It’s a tragedy
All the hate I see
Am I left to be
A slave to history
Love’s our common ground
Yeah, my skin is brown
Ain’t no sweeter sound
Walls are tumblin’ down
I can’t deny it overwhelms
That changing your world means changing yourself
You can’t tell me that you’ve already tried
Cause we’re never gonna shine
Until we swallow our pride
Chorus
The questions in you are the answers in me
And I’m no closer to answers then you are to me
If we just believe then we all can be free
Looking For You
Wide awake, chasing sleep
Life’s so bittersweet
Like a dream, remembering
When I could talk to you
We were safe in a world of harm
Before I knew it our love was gone
I miss you so much
Chorus:
I’m looking for you
Cause you’re all that’s true to me
You make me smile
I had to fall, and lose it all
But that’s all right with me
You pushed aside my selfish pride
You opened up my eyes
When I was lost you came to me
You crossed the oceans to se me free
I need you so much
Chorus
You, you’re all I ever needed
I know , I know
Only you, you’re all I ever wanted
I know, I know
You, you’re more than a dream
Yeah you’re everything
My own symphony
You’re my destiny
I’m looking for you
Cause you’re all that’s true to me
You make me smile
I’m looking for you
I sing this for you
Cause nothing’s as true
You make me smile
So I smile, yeah I smile
Every time I think of you
I smile, I do
Oh every time I think of you
I’m looking for you
Cause you are my souls’ desire
I’m searching for you
Yes you are my soul’s desire
I’m looking for you
Cause you are my soul’s desire
You are my soul’s desire
My soul’s desire
My my my soul’s desire
Oh yeah, oh yeah
You are, you are
Alters (Burn in Me)
No words
Tell Me Why
I talked to Mother just today
She told me Daddy walked away
Now everything’s about to change
I sought for words I could not find
A thousand questions filled my mind
How could you throw it all away
My heart is left without a home
But I won’t let it turn to stone
There’s got to be another way
Cause I can’t take this pain
Chorus:
Tell me why, tell me why
Why do people run away
Can we try, try to find
Try to find the will to stay
A beating heart, a tender kiss
Love is so much more than this
Always givin’ in and never giving up
I know the man I want to be
I’ve seen enough misery
It’s time for me to break free, yeah
Doubt may whisper in my ear
But I will love in spite of fear
With everything inside of me
(Tell me) Is it just a dream
Tell me why, tell me why
(love is here to stay, love is every day,
love is never fading)
Why do people fun away
Can we try, try to find
(love will set us free, love is what
we need, love is persevering)
Try to find the will to stay
I’m finally finding my way back to love
My way back to love again
I’m finally finding my way back to love
My way back to love again
Doubt my whisper in my ear
But I will love in spite of fear
With everything inside of me
Oh does anyone believe
Chorus
Cause every time you run
Every time you run away
Can we try, try try try try
You don’t have to run
You don’t have to run away
Carried Away
You’re standing right behind me
I feel you breathing down my neck
I try to catch you, but you’re gone
You whisper the words that draw me
Into your web of influence
Your sweet illusion’s like a song
You say my name
Like I’m only game in this town
But just the same
You know you gotta stop hangin’ around
Chorus:
Cause I’m carried away
A full-on freak display
I’ve got so much to say
And you’re never gonna get my crown
No you’re never gonna shut me down
Cause I’m carried away
You’re such a fallen angel
Yeah, you’re the villain in disguise
Tellin’ dark and lovely lies
I dove right into your ocean
Tasted the salt of murky seas
I’ve seen beyond your mysteries
And I’m to blame
Thought I was the only game in this town
But you’re so vain
That you’re never gonna figure it out
Chorus
Cause I’m carried away
So carried away
I’m carried away, so carried away
Stinks and stones from your lofty throne
My soul’s been set free
Chorus
Empty
If I play the game
And I will the fame
Will I be the man I dreamed of
And if I woo the crowd
And their screams are loud
Is it really me that they love
What does it profit
What does it profit me
If I gain the whole world
And lose my own soul
What would be said of me
Or my vanity, vanities
Chasin’ the wind
And I’m feelin’ empty again, yeah
I’m feeling empty again
(repeat)
Jesus come fill me again
Unglued
Restless and alone
A weary soul has traveled home
What am I to do
In a world without you
I don’t want to believe
I turned around and you’re gone
All the sweet memories
Of loving you for so long
Chorus 1:
Sometimes it’s hard
Most times I cry
But God holds this heart of mine
He feels the pain inside
Broken and undone
You’re were the one we counted on
You taught us how to say
I love you
Then you showed us how to pray
I don’t want to believe
I turned around and you’re gone
All the sweet memories
Of loving you for so long
Chorus 2:
Sometimes it’s hard
Most times I cry
But God holds this heart of mine
And He heals the pain I hide
Chorus 3:
Sometimes it’s hard, so hard
Most times I cry
But God knows this heart of mine
He feels the pain inside
