No Time To Explain
02:33
|
|||
|
I walk with Saints who have lost their way / I run with the innocent down silent lanes / Everybody's trying not to be misunderstood / Hey, oh no we'll never be safe from the ticking of the clock counting down our days / Hey, no there's no time to explain with all the poets in flames, there's nobody left to turn the page / I talk with ghosts who can't find their homes / I sing with the heartbroken in somber tones

Everybody Leaves
02:42
|
|||
|
Two lovers in dark moods say goodnight / Two runners looking for the quick goodbye / Bad angels face to face in the morning / Outside it's calm baby, inside it's storming / And they don't believe that there's anything better / Alone they're afraid but they'll fake it together / While she's drowning in the river of her reasons / Making his excuses while he's fighting back his demons / and they both know but they don't want to believe / Everybody leaves / Two thieves stealing back all the things they want / Two strangers trying to find the time they lost / Sad smiles fixed to hide all the secrets / They say I love you and they try to mean it

Wolves In The Forest
03:45
|
|||
|
This is for the ones that want to stay young / This is for the ones who try to be strong / Do we die a little inside as the seconds on the clock stop and say goodbye? / And I don't want to be the one who doesn't get what he came for / But I can hear the wind howling and it's sounding like an animal / But I can't see what's hiding in the trees so can you help me? / Can you tell me? / Will there be wolves in the forest? / Will there be danger in the caves? / Can you hear the fear in all those voices? / Calling out and asking to be saved / Do you remember when you were young? / Time passed slow and the days were long / Now the night time comes too fast and the light that you chase might not make it back / And I don't want to be the one who doesn't get what he came for

Able Archer
03:06
|

|
To all you long shots, you castaways, you sinners / you drifters, you exiles, you absolute beginners / There is a light from which the darkness can not hide you / When you decide to fight you'll find us there beside you / Take aim able archer / Send that feather to the sky / Take aim able archer / Aim high, shoot strong, and you'll find where you belong when it's time / When it's time / To all you ragers, you knock arounds you thieves / You deceivers, you bruisers of the faithful who believe

The Whispering Boy
03:07
|
|||
|
Dawn breaks it's silent hold on the sleeping forms of two lost souls / A gentle kiss finds her lips in the dark / I have to go but I won't be far / Words drift like embers they scorch my skin like falling bombs / The storm before the calm / Sometimes I get lost inside all of this noise / Because I am the whispering boy / Life out here where the wind blows cold / Where the lonely weep and the sad grow old / Visions are blocked by the sound of the clock / Hearts break in waves / On the thin ice we walk / Chasing our secrets they lead us to ends that we fear / An end that's always near

Signals
02:21
|
|||
|
This road can go so many ways / I don't know who to trust and who to blame / The signal gets lost in the trees / Just like the words get lost between you and me / But still we drink from the same stream / If I'm still standing when they're done with me / I'll still be singing for the brothers with the broken hearts / The backseat lovers reaching in the dark / For their piece of tomorrow / This dance could end before the last note sounds / So lets live while we can / While this record's still spinning around / The needle gets lost in the groove / Just like the soul gets lost on its way back to you / But still we search for the same truth

Hourglass
02:36
|
|||
|
What did I do to make it rain today? / Where will I hide when it falls apart? / Everyone's looking for somebody else to blame / And I don't know but I think we all feel the same when / We turn and find the world outside has changed / And in it's place stands the ghost of another time / Pale hands across our eyes to keep us blind / To the words flowing out like broken rhymes / And we know how this story ends / What did I do to cause you pain today? / Where will you run when it gets tough again / I never knew that we were so close to the flames / And I don't know but I think we all feel the same

Wheels To Babylon
03:15
|
|||
|
The clouds hung low on 5th Avenue / As the sun set between the lampposts / and you took my hand and said / "If we hide they might find us so let's run and run until that skyline lies far behind us" / Let's fix our eyes on the farthest star / Our future lies where no one knows who we are / You can make it even if I'm gone / You have my heart and you have my song so / Hold it close as you turn your wheels to Babylon / Twilight crept over us from behind / As darkness descended you kissed me and smiled and said / "Let's break all the clocks and get time running scared so we will always be young…"
