I Wish It Wasn’t You – Lyrics

i wish it wasn’t you

i tried to warn you last time you went down that path
and see what happened then
i can’t get through to tell you this time
but i can’t watch it all over again

i wish i couldn’t speak
i wish i couldn’t see
i wish it wasn’t you
i wish it wasn’t me

i’ll be called crazy
laughed at like a fool
so this time i’ll pretend not to know
even though it seems more cruel

i wish i couldn’t speak
i wish i couldn’t see
i wish it wasn’t you
i wish it wasn’t me

what was it you needed to see
to know what we all knew
you said you’re searching for answers
then ignore what’s obviously true

i wish i couldn’t speak
i wish i couldn’t see
i wish it wasn’t you
i wish it wasn’t me

Lyrics: Supposed To Be

you say you’re gone, not coming back, tell me that on any other day
and i’d try to keep you
but not this day, there’s finally light, you can see it in my walk
it’s long overdue

you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for hell to fall from the sky
you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for hell to fall from the sky

i will admit, i miss the dreams, the shadows of love
parading down my street
i held on too long, my knuckles locked up, but even stars eventually lose their heat

you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for hell to fall from the sky
you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for hell to fall from the sky

babies unborn, and smiles not seen, echoes of laughter unheard
you had your way
i’d have been there, to never let go, it was supposed to be
’til the end of days

you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for hell to fall from the sky

i’ve got it under control
i wrestled back my soul

you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for hell to fall from the sky

you’ve got that look in your eye
begging for love to fall from the sky

To Let You Go – Lyrics

i walked outside there was nowhere to repent
been gone too long with darkest intent
i don’t know how
i don’t know how

maybe here i will make my last stand
i’m taken hostage there are no demands
i don’t know how
i don’t know how

it wasn’t peace just a ceasefire
we’re burning love down, down to desire
i don’t know how
i don’t know how

to let you go

Mercy – Lyrics

if you disappeared in an endless night
mercy
but you’ll signal again just to spite
mercy

end this hope once and for all
let me forget how to crawl
blindfolded against the wall
mercy

have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me

break all the mirrors
mercy
don’t come any nearer
mercy

there have been so many names
give up on trying to blame
take the pictures from the frames
mercy

have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me
have mercy, have mercy, on me

Part Of Me – Lyrics

thank you for not sitting too near
how can something so dark make it all so clear
they’re all waiting for you
go on they’re waiting for you

part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me
part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me

when your north wind blows down again
will i give up this foolish campaign
i was waiting for you
did you know i was waiting for you

part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me
part of me knows it’s wrong
maybe it’s just wrong for part of me

Sky Lights Up – Lyrics

a threat, liberation, settling a score
the lies you don’t believe anymore
what happened to your esprit de corps
this is the war to start a hundred more

one more hill, one more home
one more kill and time to atone
the sky lights up and the city prays
freedom is won this way

no cameras on you when you return
can’t cause too much concern
but you’re here now a simple job to do
it’ll never end, but you’ll see it through

one more hill, one more home
one more kill and time to atone
the sky lights up and the city prays
freedom is won this way

and the bones in the street must be the freest of all
no fear of you behind crumbled walls
no higher love to pursue
sometimes you wish it was you

one more hill, one more home
one more kill and time to atone
the sky lights up and the city prays
freedom is won this way

How – Lyrics

how did i end up here
how did i end up here

these are not my arms, this is not my blood, these are not my bones
how did i end up here
this is not my cross, these are not my fears, these are not my tears
how did i end up here

how did i end up here
how did i end up here

this is not my pain, this is not my bed, this is not my life
this is not my rage, this is not my hate, this is not my hurt
how did i end up here

but this is my soul, and this is my spirit, and this is my hope
that’s how i’ll leave here
this is my faith, this is my courage, this is my strength
that’s how i’ll leave here

I Know – Lyrics

cry wolf, cry all night
with darkened dreams that you set alight
i know, i know

burrow down deep inside
the cold dirt laughed but at least you tried
i know, i know
i know, i know

i know how you’ll get free
carried on my back, on my back
i know how you’ll get free
dancing on my back, on my back

dirty hands, i planted seeds
you sang to weeds, ate the hand that feeds you
i know, i know

story time, it was all untrue
a lie for you, and one for me too
i know, i know
i know, i know

i know how you’ll get free
carried on my back, on my back
i know how you’ll get free
dancing on my back, on my back

cry wolf, cry all night
with darkened dreams that you set alight
i know, i know
i know

Gods Among Men – Lyrics

i miss you before you’ve gone
erasing these images so poorly drawn
waiting to hear about somebody’s happy tomorrow
bravely wielding hope that i borrow

if i could’ve made these ropes disappear
i would have reached out and pulled you here
if i’d latched on, dug in, didn’t let go
i wouldn’t miss you so

we were gods among men, all over again, now it’s time to go
we were gods among men, all over again, but now it’s time to go
we were gods among men, how could we begin, we should’ve known
we were gods among men, how could we begin, we should’ve known

i could wait for you at the edge of the wrong ocean
willing the world to break the laws of motion
the sky as my witness, the sun hanging high
did i really have to try

we were gods among men, all over again, now it’s time to go
we were gods among men, all over again, but now it’s time to go
we were gods among men, how could we begin, we should’ve known
we were gods among men, how could we begin, we should’ve known

Victory Tree – Lyrics

shall we try this again
you whisper in the dark
there’s fear when you touch my face
that you haven’t left your mark

you are free you are free you are free
letting go from the top of your victory tree
you are free, you had your way
sailing across your blackened sea

the same pulse that breaks your bones
rushes your hand to throw stones
you sacrificed the whitest lamb
to hear its heavenly tones

you are free you are free you are free
letting go from the top of your victory tree
you are free, you had your way
sailing across your blackened sea

shall we try this again
again and again
shall we try this all over again
again and again and again

you are free you are free you are free
letting go from the top of your victory tree
you are free, you had your way
sailing across your blackened sea

Hear Me Now – Lyrics

if i just lay down on the floor
and hope i can’t fall any more
i look up in this dark room
it’s feeling like an ancient tomb

i’m not apollo, not some pretty greek god
not that new town in the desert with the old west facade
i’m real, i’m here
you might have to ask for something when i should just volunteer

but know this, please hear me now
you won’t find a truer promise, or a stronger spoken vow
know this, please hear me now
you won’t find a truer promise, or a stronger spoken vow

you might turn and walk away
i might curse up something mean
you can wash my mouth with bitter soap
and i’ll try to keep it clean

they never engraved us on some far-flung satellite
but we can launch and leave this far behind, let the sun re-ignite

i’m not apollo, not some pretty greek god
not that new town in the desert with the old west facade
i’m real, i’m here
you might have to ask for something when i should just volunteer

but know this, please hear me now
you won’t find a truer promise, or a stronger spoken vow
know this, please hear me now
you won’t find a truer promise, or a stronger spoken vow
