She finally broke it
I won’t cry
No, I won’t cry
She whispered the verdict
I won’t fight
No, I won’t fight

Wars like these

Remember saying all the places we'd go
Once we've found the road to take us there
But we spend too much time waiting by the window
And ended up not going anywhere

Never thought you'd be the kind for leaving
But you always thought I'd be the one to run
Yeah, but you can't get a stain out of the ceiling

My darling,
You're stalling now.
Well don't you know where I've been?

There's fall out,
There is no doubt,
Where this is all gonna end.

Oh my love
help me open my heart again
tear it open let the rain fall in
wash this hardness underneath my skin
oh my love
let me hear your voice come through
I wanna know the love inside of you
make this dark heart believe in what is true

Let us pause in life’s pleasures and count its many tears
While we all sup sorrow with the poor
There’s a song it will linger forever in our ears
Oh! Hard Times come again no more

It’s the song, and the sigh of the weary
Oh! hard times, Hard Times, come again no more
Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door

Here’s to you when the rain hits too hard
When the battles that you fight just leave you scarred
When your tired to the bone and you got no strength to move on
Here’s to you when the light has grown too dim
And your faith is just hanging on a limb
And your heart begins to doubt if you’ll ever make it through
Oh, here’s to you
Here’s to you

Under the silence of water,
Into a sky full of birds
Out from the land of our fathers,
I am falling on your words,
Oh...

Dark as the night of a preacher,
I made a bed out of hay

How can I forget you
Memories come and go
You're all I've ever wanted
You're all I've ever known
Can I be happy
Living with your ghost
The pictures tell the story
I took them off the wall

you're always bound to fall
there's nothin you can do
the weight of gravity begins
to pull you down again
so what are you to do now?
stuck between the hope and doubt
you get so close to clarity
makes you question everything

Look me in the eyes
Tell me you don't feel a thing
Look me in the eyes
Tell me you don't feel a thing
I'm laying out my heart
and giving you everything

If it all goes wrong

Lord, I feel the weight of a mountain
Pressing down inside my soul
I can see the pillars fallin'
There ain't nothin' left to hold
The reigns are broken too
I can't steer this
There's nothing I can do
Except to throw my arms out

I wanna rock-n-roll
I wanna give my soul
I'm wanting to belielve
I'm not too old
Don't want to make it up
Don't want to let you down
I want to fly away
But I'm stuck on the ground

If there was a chance that we could be lovers
I'd write you a book of handwritten letters
And burn them all up to the end
Just to start over again

If there was a chance that we could be lovers
I'd learn how to dance, how to hold without touching
Oh, love, where have you been?

Put your defense down
open up your heart and lay
all of it out
I know how hard it sounds
but loneliness will have it's way
in feeding your doubts

I'm waiting on the light

The sun is sinking
And I'm still dragging this bag of bones
Like a home-sick beggar
With a rockstar swagger
And a heart of stone

My feet are on the riverbed
My hands are far from innocent

I hold a photograph
I get lost in the way it was
It's like a treasure map to all I've had
I found you along the way
I remember how you'd look at me
Skies are never grey in the past

Remember when falling stars were meant for you

I'm wrestling tigers
I can't be tamed
The ambulance drive
He knows my name

I told him the last time
This will be the last time
He said, he didn't mind
