The Wind, It Turns

I was staring at the sky, simply wondering why I was upset
As I was floating on the sea, the clouds were rolling over me
There was a breeze
and I was frozen
The trees were covering up the land like a cast on a broken hand Protecting the core
As I was watching the birds in flight, and wondering where they'd sleep at night, where was their home
And then the skyline turned to gold
The wind, it turned from cold
And I was sitting still
For the beauty of the earth
For the glory of the skies
I am at peace

Restart

I saw a man on the bus all alone
He lifted his hat and he said hello
He sat with a grin as he flipped through the news
He looked up at me as he opened his mouth
Boy don't you know you've got plenty of time
Waste it all now and you'll just lose your mind
I asked myself, do I need this right now
I got off the bus and went straight to my bed
I turned out the lights and reviewed what he said
Now, clearly this man had some problems in life
But which of his words have I lived out
I threw off the sheets as I fell to the floor
I put on my coat as I bust through the door
Now I'm franticly searching for the man in my heart
And wishing my time had a way to restart
And now my time is spent on nothing more than life
And now my time is spent on His word and life

In This House
03:36
|

There was a darkness in the light
Only a speck, couldn’t escape my sight
And I followed it, keeping it close
It exchanged my serenity for morose
Surely the light did turn into the night ‘round me
Within the darkness I surely then could hide
But I was found in your eyes
You gave me a sister to talk the sunrise
In my bed, in the depths, You are there
Even though I was unaware
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
If I settle on the far side of the sea,
If I stay in this house as the night goes on,
Even there your hand will guide me.

De Novo

I was lost in my mind, and I knew I'd run out of time
I was scared; terrified, so I ran away
I knew You were gone, and I knew that she was alone
But then a hand touched my back, so I sat and cried
I sat in my place as I wiped the tears off my face
But then I knelt at Your feet in my brokenness
And now I’m Alive. I’m at peace
Through this war You’ve put me at ease
And now I am free from my guilt
And I know that I’m being rebuilt
Cause You know, You know who I am
And You are, You are my plan

Red Death
03:07

Put your hand over your heart
Let fate decide if you’ve been set apart
Take a breath man you’ve been saved
Let's put it on let’s masquerade
This gate we’ve built, it’s sturdy see
Not kept them out but set them free
Thirty minutes every death
Thirty minutes, one last breathe
Blue is just the start my friend
Don’t worry not until the end
The next is of the lustful kind
Don’t look too far, you’ll lose your mind
Hear the violins around
Listen hard, you’ll feel the sound
Listen as it shouts out twelve
Yet my feet don’t skip a beat
The prince himself looks dead at me
I’m not the man he wants to see
He takes his hand and grabs my arm
He falls but squeaks a faint alarm
Out of luck without a doubt
Staring now they scream and shout
Off with mask! Off with all
Don’t move too fast. Now you’re dead

I was running out of breath as I was looking through her eyes
Even when I felt the Devil's pull, I was bound to You within my soul
So when my heart was beating fast, You forgave and pulled it back
I was dreaming of her death as I was lying in my bed
And as I felt the scars appear I shouted out in fear
And as my heart was beating fast, You forgave and pulled it back

Cold Hands
03:31

Help. I need a paradise
I need a set of eyes
I need a friend
Hope: the thing that I need the most
My life’s a kaleidoscope
But what can I do
Take a hard look in the mirror
Grab your cold hand, make it cleaner
Take a long walk in the sunlight
Make your heart warm, and your wrongs right
Help. I need a pair of fists
And I need a catalyst
And I need a home
Doubt: the only thing that I have
And It tears me apart, it’s sad
But what can I do
When can I say
Take a hard look in the mirror
Grab your cold hand, make it cleaner
Take a long walk in the sunlight
Make your heart warm, and your wrongs right

Headlights

Glowing lights seem to sway in pairs
But my heart just can't keep a beat
Beside me is a beam of light
It fades away as I close my eyes
My life flashed before my eyes
I finally know what it means to die
I turn to see if the child's alright
But my mind is lost in a sea of cries
Press on my dying friend
When the world falls we will rise again
And the sun will shine for you
And we'll watch it all come true
Don't you worry, Freedom's arrived
...

On my wooden bow waves are pulling, pulling
Catching my red sails winds are blowing, blowing
Clouds in the night they are showing, showing
A beam of moonlight that is growing, growing
And for all the waves I can't see
I know that you're right beneath me
The lamp is my full-moon when I am free
When you believe in me
'Cross your precious face I am going, going
In your gentle grace I am flowing, flowing
Clouds in the night they are knowing, knowing
Why my wooden bow needs no rowing, rowing
And for all the lamp-litten skies
Reflected in your ocean eyes
That show how your waters can dance and fly
As I float by
Red sails high
And now red sails make me think of you…
