From the Ground

We come from the ground like all things
Our ancestors crawled out of the ocean
And stood up
But unlike these creatures we have the capacity for compassion and for love
The greatest fault of mankind is that we forget what we are
We choose to fight and kill as anything else that came from the ground would
We forget that we are much more than skin and bone
We are human

Colliding with Clouds

It stops the wolves from creeping in
The hollow of the hill
The bones I laid from better days
The skin that's stretched and pulled
Forget all of the things you know
And some of what you don't
You sailed away from better days
On ships you made from bone
So take all of me
But I know
You wanted something more
Than skin and bones

Shed

I held the key to the door and you didn't care
Locked it from both sides and I left you in there
The pictures I painted for you were amateur at best
A tired old image of you that I need to put to rest
So shake your shedding skin
And love what you've grown in.
Erase all your strife
Straight from your life
The biggest smile you'll ever see me wear is when I realize I don't need You anymore
Under the skin that I cease to grow
Outside the walls where you used to know
I'm stuck inside my head and you won't let go
So I'll paint a picture of you

Where Waves Meet Shores

Is it time?
'Cause where we are going there's none
Must we walk?
We'll get there faster if we run
We'll leave all
Our friends and our family behind
In search of
The next horizon we can find
We walk
We walk to the sea and talk
Tell the ocean what troubles us
We walk to the sea and talk
With our feet in the water
We walk to the sea and talk
Tell the ocean what troubles us
We walk to the sea and talk
We walk where it's free
Unseen things clash beneath our feet
And the breeze carries me
So far away from you

So Long

We were happy before
But we know this is it
It's the only way out
And the only way in
I'm not perfect I know now
But neither are you
I don't know if you know
But you have your faults too
All good things must end
All good things must end
We're broken down, we get up
We're broken down, we get up
