Book

There's a book that I am trying to read
There's a hammer in my head that is talking to me
There's a lover in my heart I can't see
There's a book that I am trying to read to me
I am holding onto something
Greater than myself
Hope is hard to come by these days
Calling for some help
There's a garden I am trying to weed
There's a picture on my wall that just won't let me sleep
My beloved, on my mind, out to sea
There's a book that I am trying to read to me
I am holding onto something
Greater than myself
Hope is hard to come by these days
Calling for some help
I am holding onto something
Greater than myself
Hope is hard to come by these days
Calling for some help
I am holding onto something
Greater than myself
Hope is hard to come by these days
Calling for some help

Dissolver

Dissolve me like sugar
Dissolve me if it's time
Do it gently with the touch of your hand
Or with a look
Dissolve me like sugar
Dissolve me if it's time
Do it gently with the touch of your hand
Or with a look
Every morning I wait for dawn
That's when it happened before
Do it suddenly, just like an execution
How else can I get ready for death?
Every morning I wait for dawn
That's when it happened before
Do it suddenly, just like an execution
How else can I get ready for death?
You breathe without a body like a spark
You grieve, and I begin to feel lighter
You breathe without a body like a spark
You grieve, and I begin to feel lighter
You're pushing me away with your arm
Your pushing me away is pulling me in
You're pushing me away with your arm
Your pushing me away is pulling me in
You're pushing me away with your arm
Your pushing me away is pulling me in
You're pushing me away with your arm
Your pushing me away is pulling me in
Pale sunlight
Pale the wall
Love moves away
The light changes
Pale sunlight
Pale the wall
Love moves away
The light changes
I need more grace than I thought
(Just like an execution)
(How else can I get ready for death?)
I need more grace than I thought
(Just like an execution)
(How else can I get ready for death?)
I need more grace than I thought
(Just like an execution)
(How else can I get ready for death?)
I need more grace than I thought

Do I Feel At Home Here?
02:02
|

Do I feel at home here?
Do I doubt?
Do I know the difference between my dreams and fears?
Am I so alone here?
Am I without?
Can I be the one to misdirect myself?
Ha-ah-ha
Ha-ah-ha
Ha-ah-ha-ah
Ha-ah-ah
(Do I feel at home here?)

Say What You Are
02:52

Say the thing you'd say if you were one
Carry me if you can overcome
Say what you are
Stay where you are
How is this a way for you to run?
(How is this a way for you to run?)
Carry me if you can overcome

Say what you are
Stay where you are

I Can't Write It Down
03:40
|
|||
I know it's a problem
I can't write it down
The things I am wanting
Are deep in me now
Are you worried about:
All the things you're without?
All the things you can doubt?
What you don't know?
I know it's a problem
I can't walk a line
And if I have lost it
It was never mine
Are you worried about:
All the things you can doubt?
All the things you're without?
What you don't feel?
But you think all the time
If you knew yourself, you'd be just fine
But you're not what they think
You can calm yourself with a small drink
But you're not just a lush
You can paint yourself with a broad brush
If they find out who you are
That you're just white trash
Sleeping in your car (your car)
I know it's a problem
I can't write it down
The things I am wanting
Are deep in the ground

Deliberate Practice
04:02
|
|||
Deliberate practice is still really hard
Tell me you love me and catch me off guard
Take my advice and I'll try to take yours
In a moment of silence facedown on the floor
Facedown on the floor
I'm swallowing poison, hope my enemies die
I'm making decisions I can't justify
But I'm not alone in this big awful mess
'Cause I've got a friend and she loves me the best
She loves me the best
I'm counting my blessings by twos and by tens
I'm seeing my life through a scratch on the lens
But I'm leaning in close to the people who ache
God's present in weakness and all my mistakes
All my mistakes
It's bitter in winter, the cross of our king
The knowledge that darkness affects everything
You're quick to be angry, it's your grandmother's gift
All people on earth, from the cup we all sip
A cup we all sip

Something Is Not Right
05:26
|
|||
Something is not right
In my heart
I'm a little too anxious
A little too sad
I can see all the movement
That I never had
And it's true
Something is not right
Something is not right
In my heart
Something is not right
In myself
I'm a little too earnest
It's a little too bad
I can see all the movement
That I never had
And it's true
Something is not right
Something is not right
In myself
Something is not right
In my heart

Where Do You Want To Go?
04:41
|
|||
The time's right for us
So where do you want to go?
I'm here, promise
So where do you want to go?
Where do you want to go?
If you say what
A place that I didn't know
We can't stay here
So where do you want to go?
Where do you want to go?
Deaf in one ear
So speak for me nice and slow
Fragile, sincere
Where do you want to go?
Where do you want to go?

I'm Not Sure
04:12
|
|||
I'm not sure
Could you ask me later?
I just need to lay here
'Til these feelings disappear
I know you
Are in such a hurry
But I'm feeling worried
That there's nothing left of me
There's a dark wind coming in
And it might just take me in
Do you know something I don't?
Carry me
Take me up the stairwell
No, I know I'm not well
But I could not tell you why
I'm not sure
Who I think I should be
As if this world needs me
And my thoughts stuck on repeat
You're a cold hand on my brow
Could you take my pulse just now?
Do you know something I don't?
I'm not sure
Could you ask me later?
I just need to lay here
'Til these feelings disappear
There's a dark wind coming in
And it might just take me in
Do you know something I don't?
Do you know something I don't?

Smoke Monster
04:24
|

Maybe I should go to a doctor
Tell him all about the things I've seen
Talk about how I often hurt you
When all you're trying to do is talk to me
There's so much I'd say
But I probably just won't go anyway
Do you get tired of waiting for me
When I sit on my hands?
Are you tired of how I'm making demands?
Can you tell me I'm not alone?
Maybe I should go to a preacher
Tell him all about the things I've done
If I come to you for absolution
Would that do anything for all I've wronged?
There's still smoke in my lungs
From all the breathing I did when I was growing up
And I've got poison breath toward you
And I can't hardly wait
To live one whole day without making you wait
Can I clean out my heart myself?
There's smoke in my lungs
From all the breathing I did when I was growing up
And I've got poison breath toward you
And I can't hardly wait
To live one whole day without making you wait
Can I clean out my heart myself?
There's still smoke in my lungs
From all the breathing I did when I was growing up
And I've got poison breath toward you
And I can't hardly wait
To live one whole day without making you wait
Can I clean out my heart myself?
Can I clean out my heart myself?
Can I clean out my heart myself?

Is It Love
01:59
|
|||
When my words become a tangle in which I'm knotted up
When you can't stand my presence, 'cause I'm feeling stuck
When I've got a sickness that won't let up
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
When I feel my throat tighten and I freeze with fear
I'm at the bottom of the ocean and I think I'll disappear
With a cry in the night only God can hear
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Breathe in so deeply the fear can't sneak in
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Search for the daylight and wait 'til the end
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Friendship in motion some near and some gone
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
With all my bad habits you still take me in
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
Is it love that rebuilds us all?
