"One Of The Nights I Didn't Die"
My heart was a headless corpse
Riding out to the battlefield on a skeleton horse
My song, lonesome and blue
There was a time when the broken man was all I knew
One of the nights I didn’t die
I swore to myself, “If I am alive when we lay down,
maybe we’ll change.” Now won’t we see?
Be what you wanna be.
My soul, she’s an ancient well
And the voice of a thousand lives is mine to tell
This man, just flesh and bone
There’ll come a time when you look for me
and I’ll be gone
One of the nights I didn’t die
I swore to myself, “If I am alive when we lay down,
maybe we’ll change.” Now won’t we see?
There’s no one to reach for, no one to blame
No one to point to - it's you and your name
When we lay down maybe we’ll change
Now won’t we see?
Be what you wanna be.
Baby, there is no other one but you.

"Gold"
I was lost at sea
Nobody but me
Undiscovered treasure
Buried in deep
Underneath
Sunken debris
I wanna know when
This life turns gold
I could barely breathe
Still covered beneath
All this buried treasure
Screaming please
Uncover me
Discover me
I wanna know when
This life turns gold

"Down In The Valley"
Down in the valley where the cold wind blows
Sing to me now and heal my soul
Lay my burden by the riverside
Peace come take this heart of mine
Give me my home in a far off land
Teach me all things I don’t understand
Sing to me now my one true love
I’ll show you girl what I’m made of
Heal my soul
Sing to me now and heal my soul

"Lost In Xanadu"
In paradise did Kubla Khan
Build a city just to turn you on
Meadow springs & beasts of game
A sunless sea with sacred rain
In Xanadu you’re my only one
Xanadu, you’re my only one
Honestly, if you ever knew
How much I love you
Xanadu, you’re my only one
The scale and wealth, measureless to man
The deep romantic chasm ran
Who sank his head into her thigh
And drank the milk of paradise
In Xanadu you’re my only one
Xanadu, you’re my only one
Honestly, if you ever knew
How much I love you
Xanadu, you’re my only one
I keep hanging on
Visions in a dream
Pay for the illusion
You can never see
Somethings never change
We’re lost
In Xanadu, you’re my only one
Xanadu, you’re my only one
Honestly, if you ever knew
How much I love you
Xanadu, you’re my only one
Give it to me cause I want it all
Give it to me

"The Boy Who Fell From The Mountainside"
Onscreen: life that I’d seen in my teenage prime
Friend groups in faith troops
The homeschooled kind
Here’s the boy who fell
from the mountainside
(always in our hair)
One morn' we went out walkin' in the high froze pines
We scaled those lonely trails
Nearly took my life
The boy who fell from
the mountainside
(always in our prayers)
There lay my broken body
There went my mind
with no explanation
How I could be alive
The boy who fell
From the mountainside
I’ll weigh in on death

"Love, The Great Destroyer"
Grief is the price
Grief is the price we pay for love
Creatures below
And Jesus you know I feel you above
So literally come down
And hold this pain
God I hope that you’re my friend
Felt our hate
And if there’s nothing for love
I’ll taste our end
So literally come down
And hold this pain
All my life there’s no one else for me

"Oh How I Love You"
I got the fire inside me
I speak in tongues of my own
I heard the voice of creation say
Can’t wait to get you home
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
Baby yes I do
My heart the holy creation
My cross on top of the hill
And if you need me to bring it down
Girl, you know that I will
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
Oh how I love you
Baby yes I do
