Let me take you down
To testify
Under the brow of a sparkling sky
We’ll dance away
A distant day
And shout our sins
In a passion play
Over we go
Diving for pearls
Over we go
From the edge of the world
Let the fire fall in
The footsteps we leave
Painted on the ground
We’ll watch the stars
Come crashing down
Upon our heads
Like a madding crown
Let me take you down
To testify
Under the brow of a sparkling sky
We’ll dance away
‘Til the day is done
Then rise again
To unwrap the sun
Over we go
Diving for pearls
Over we go
From the edge of the world
This is the song from the edge of the world -
One wish
A world wonder
A Casanova
One wish
My youth is over
But my days are younger
Mistakes and Lies
Runnings and fights
Start over again
IF there’s a chance
If there’s a chance
I won’t be late
If you can take
My heart, and make
Make a clean slate
Make a clean slate
You can’t stop me
Once I believe
You don’t know
My past life
Cause my slate’s clean
Clean x5
Breaking down cause you’re breaking through
Moving on over the residue
Lift the weight over your soul
Go and float
Go and float
If I rise in the dark
Finding love in my heart
Flesh will die to begin
Never again
Never again
You can’t stop me
Whoa
Once I believe
Whoa
You you you don’t don’t know
My past life
Cause my slate’s clean
Clean x5
I won’t delay
If you can take
My heart and make
Make a clean slate
Make a clean slate
You can’t stop
You can’t stop
You can’t stop me
Breaking down cause you’re breaking through
Moving on over the residue
Lift the weight over your soul
Go and float
Go and float
If I rise in the dark
Finding love in my heart
Flesh will die to begin
Never again
Never again
One wish
A world wonder
A Casanova
One wish
The past is over
And the days are bolder
And the days are bolder
And the days are bolder -
Push a pin into my arm. I will bleed like anyone
Pull it out and I forget
On a trail blazed with words. One that I was lost upon
The road that I depended on, I follow no moreTortured man take your hand, take it from the fire now
Place it in cool water
A hypocrite is one who prays only when he feels pain
It’s time to open your eyes. So open your eyesI could wait a million years, look into a billion eyes
To find another love like this
I could wait a million yearsThe slamming door the unseen wall
The hurt I never could forget, I struggle to remember
And take my hand from the fire refusing all intended scars
You are cool water. Into you, I swimI could wait a million years, look into a billion eyes
To find another love like this
I could wait a million yearsHeld still in one place for too long
Gone blind to the miracle of saving
I pray this angel in my eyes was put here to save my lifeThrough your eyes I feel your soul
What I feel I must believe
What I believe I live
This coming from a man who clenched the truth so tight in his hands.
Then opened to find evil
Found trusting love againI could wait a million years, look into a billion eyes
To find another love like this
I could wait a million years -
Broken Songs (for broken people)
Broken songs for broken people
Broken windows into broken souls
Gathered pieces of stories told … These are
Broken words with many different meanings
Take from them what you wish
With broken trust they are just meaninglessI sit drifting now like many times before
Like every man before me, and like every man to come
I sway back and forth, how ‘bout I sway toward you now
Placing words one in front of the other
It’s easy, I can show how to writeBroken songs for broken people …
Just dream a little dream and play it like the truth
If you want you can look them in the eyes
As they look at you
And when you’re done just turn and run
And never let them see the part you hide
Just let them hold the part you got them to believe …
singingBroken songs for broken people …

Each step I left behind
Each road you know is mine
Walking on the line ten stories high
Say you’ll still be by my sideIf I could take your hand
If you could understand
That I can barely breath the air is thin
I fear the fall and where we’ll landWe fight every night for something
When the sun sets we’re both the same
Half in the shadows
Half burned in flames
We can’t look back for nothin’
Take what you need say your goodbyes
I gave you everything
And it’s a beautiful crimeEach breath I left behind
Each breath you take is mine
Walking on the line ten stories high
Fear a fall you’re asking whyWe’re leaving the things we lost
Leaving the ones we’ve crossed
I have to make an end so we begin
To save my soul at any costWe fight every night for something
When the sun sets we’re both the same
Half in the shadows
Half burned in flames
We can’t look back for nothin’
Take what you need say your goodbyes
I gave you everything
This darkness is the lightThis darkness is the light
We fight every night for something
When the sun sets we’re both the same
Half in the shadows
Half burned in flames
We can’t look back for nothin’
Take what you need say your goodbyes
I gave you everything
And it’s a beautiful crime -
You lift my heart up when the rest of me is down
And you, you enchant me, even when you’re not around
If there, there are boundaries, I will try to knock them down
I’m latching on babe, now I know what I have foundI feel we’re close enough
I wanna lock in your love
I feel we’re close enough
I wanna lock in your love
Your loveAnd now I’ve got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
You got me shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto youI feel so encaptured, you got me wrapped up in your touch
I feel so enamoured, hold me tight within your clutch
And how did you do it, you got me losing all my breath
How did you give me, to have my heart beat out my chestAnd now I’ve got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
You got me shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto youAnd now I’ve got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
You got me shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto youI’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto youWoah… woah… woah…
I’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto you
I’m latching onto youAnd now I’ve got you in my space
I won’t let go of you
You got me shackled in my embrace
I’m latching onto you -
“You have the spirit of someone who belongs at my side”

“who better for a degenerate aristocrat than a professional criminal, when you think about it?

Trouble will find you no mater where you go, oh oh
No Matter if you’re fast no matter if you’re slow, oh oh
The eye of the storm and the cry in the morn, oh oh
Your fine for a while but then start to loose controlHe’s there in the dark
He’s there in my heart
He waits in the winds
He’s gotta play a part
Trouble is a friend
Yeah trouble is a friend of mine. oh ohTrouble is a friend but trouble is a foe, oh oh
And no matter what I feed him he always seems to grow, oh oh
He sees what I see and he knows what I know, oh oh
So don’t forget as you ease on down the roadSo don’t be alarmed if he takes you by the arm
I won’t let him win, but I’m a sucker for his charm
Trouble is a friend
Yeah trouble is a friend of mine, oh ohOh how I hate the way he makes me feel
And how I try to make him leave, I try
Oh Oh I try -
You, looked at me as you walked in the room
Like the red sea, you split me open
Somehow I knew these wings were stolen
All you did was save my lifeTried to run but I couldn’t move
Well I paid for these concrete shoes
But like a singer that sings the blues
You saw hope in the hopelessI’m not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I’m not dying
All you did was get me through
I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed
All you did was save my lifeSave my lifeI’m not for sale but I’ve been sold
The more I hear the less I know
And the lies are swallowed whole
In their insignificance
The story’s been told a million times
But it’s different when it’s your life
I won the lottery tonight
The lottery tonight
The lottery tonightI’m not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I’m not dying
All you did was get me through
I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed
All you did was save my lifeI started to come around
The dogs are backing down
I’m not afraid to seeThe devil’s gone underground
This tightrope’s been cut down
And I can finally breatheYou, looked at me as you walked in the room
Like the red sea you split me open
Somehow I knew these wings were stolenI’m not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I’m not dying
All you did was get me through
I owe every breath to you
Heart and soul unparalyzed
All you did was save my lifeAll you did was save my life
(Put the heart beat back inside)
All you did was save my life
(Put the heart beat back inside)
All you did was save my life.
