1. _ Heart In Hand
I know it's been a long road
To get these towns behind me and i
Will gladly reap what we may sow i am
There for you and you're there for me
Pictures and photographs
Memories and windows
Goodbyes and epitaphs
Heartbeats and hellos
Chorus
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where i stand i am
Heart
Heart in hand
These fields may hold a hunting ground
But the wolves are far behind me and i
Hear the howls and the distant sound
Of the messengers lost at sea
Into the morning light
Followed by madness
Reach through the empty fight
Searching through sadness
Chorus
I know it's been a long road
To get these fears behind me and i
Will gladly reap what we may sow i am
There for you and you're there for me
Pictures and photographs
Memories and windows
Goodbyes and epitaphs
Heartbeats and hellos
Chorus

2. _ The Unchosen One
God why you want to play with me
Can't you see i'm tumbling down
And like your favorite toy
Boy i'm tired of being thrown around
You lead me through this life of complication and delusion
So you drop it in my lap and slap me back towards confusion
When it's so hard to decide whether to live or to die in this destiny
Tell me what would you say if at the end of the day it was just you and me
Smile away the fears that only seem to run me around
So you open up the door then the floor came crumbling down
I've only one or two dreams there worth losing
But they're unraveling, traveling down the road to ruin
And the harder i try the more i slip and i slide through this fantasy
All by myself i need your help to perservere
But the same conclusions always greet me at my door
Wouldn't it be nice to fade away
And maybe one day you will show me what went wrong
How did i become the unchosen one
So when the rain is just around my corner
Throw some sunshine down my way
And i'll hit you with a smile all the while my worries melt away
So won't you show me a sign as i continue to climb up this reality
All by myself i need your help to perservere
And the same conclusions always greet me at my door
Wouldn't it be nice to fade away
And maybe one day you will show me what went wrong
So how did i become the unchosen one

3. _ Great Divide
Keep on looking, find a way out
Get a hold on hoping, scream and shout
A new addiction, another show
Truth and fiction, well i did not know
Chorus:
I didn't know you and you didn't know me
Broken branches and a family tree
Blown over this wind is wide
A lone loner's, and our great divide
Running forward, warning signs
Looking backward at the yellow lines
All the great suggestions and the horoscope
Stubborn lessons, and we could not cope
Chorus
And i know it's not forever
This time it's not the same
Why can't we live together
And share more than a name
In the name of friendship and the mask of love
Careful not to trip on the kid gloves
Or the cooking apron, and the wedding gown
Fabric so thin that it ties us down
Chorus

4. _ Japan
I saw a young man by a telephone
He was sitting alone in the rain
I said, "hey, young man what you doing here?"
He said, "sir, i'm going insane"
See i love an american beauty
But nobody here understands
So he looked to the sky with resentment in his eyes
And said, "lord, why am i in japan?"
Lord why am i in japan?
He told me a story about yesterday
How he walked in the search of a friend
But nobody came to his rescue
So he came to his bitter end
He pulled me close and said
"they all stopped and stared
As i walked down the street alone
And nobody knew my name
Nobody knew my name"
I said, "young man i know where you're going
And young man i know where you've been
But i've been in this land for a lifetime, it seems,
And i'm never to come back again
No, i'm never to come back again
So i turned and i gave him my blessing
And i left him alone in the rain
But i had to just stop and laugh at myself
Still nobody knows my name
Nobody knows my name

5. _ The Ride
I hope you know why
You're taking me for a ride
I'm taking it on the chin
Protecting the parts where the anger's been
When it's deep inside
And each day my hope subsides
It's killed by your reasons why
Chalking it up to fate
What's to become of the injured hate
When it won't die
Chorus:
And though i'd like to sail away
Your eyes just drag me down
Into another stormy day
So i've got to get away
Someday i'll realize
Why you wouldn't be my bride
I wish you could take the hit
'cause your luck becomes what you make of it
But you have to try
And though i'd like to sail away
Your eyes just drag me down
Into another lonely day
Won't you save me
I'm taking it on the chin
Protecting the parts where the anger's been
When it's deep inside

6. _ Fragments
Hold my thoughts i'm at an impasse
Past the place i stopped before
The sweeper's sweeping fragments
Of my head out the door
And the ice it burns upon my forehead
The calmness starts to scream
Must i always hold the upright
When my soul longs to dream
Chorus:
Is it too much to find an answer
Is it too much to hold you close
Is it too much to find a reason
Is it too much to free my soul
From self control
I can't get it any better
I always end up killing time
Time for love and time for living
Time to find what's really mine
Chorus twice
And i know you're always waiting for me
You take me far away
And i know you're holding me
And it's better now . . .
And it's better now . . .
And it's better now . . .

7. _ Falling Down
Where does the time go
Spinning my wheels
Standing still
It's like running on ice
I only gain a little distance when i fall
How did i become a molecule
In the concrete of this city
Indifferent to my endless motion
In a space too small to see
Nonetheless expected to be
I only get a little attention when i fall
Chorus:
And i'm falling
Falling down
Falling
Falling down
Cursed with reason
In a world so defiant
Without conclusion
This is the story
The story we live out
And it is the moral too
Look at me i'm falling for you
Shaking, crying
Hating lying to myself
I'm tired of telling myself it's ok
To be this tired
This sick and tired of the turns the world takes
And the people that it makes us be
And lately it appears to me that
Chorus
I'm falling down...

8. _ Candyman
Chorus
And even though i'm right behind you
Shadows haunt and taunt your hand
I cannot be your everything
But i'll be your candyman
You move a sudden grace, a child upon the earth
You wanted love to find you but you found it first
Chorus
We look through antiques on a fuzzy, fuzzy day
But you always know just what you want
Want right away
Chorus
And though you cry at night
It's to be expected
But know you're mine tonight
So when the sun has died you dive into your mind
But your soul is never lost until the deal is signed

9. _ Wash Away
An old man lying by the road
Black is night
He's got his finger on the trigger
An easy target in sight
He's got no future, no family tree
He's got a three dollar bottle
And he drinks 'till he can't see
All night, all night.....
A young girl waiting on a line
Eight a.m., she's got a six month old burden
Willpower's withering thin
An unwed mother beaten by her trade
Each week her welfare reminds her
Of mistakes she never made
Oh no.....
Chorus
Now what has that to say about tomorrow
What has that to show for today
Noah thought to build an ark
Before the heavens washed it all away
Away...
A baby crying through a dream
An afterthought
Mother is seething for pleasure
After the poison is bought
His eyes are tainted, staggered is his breath
Oh god, he's addicted
Addicted to death
Oh, no...

10. _ It's Only Me
I am the blood
I am the heartbeat
I am the needle drawing me from me
Separate vials for the vile i see
I am the mind
And i know what i know
Fragments of pictures form my core
All strewn about on this prison floor
Chorus:
Watched on by secret eyes
Hidden internal lies
It's only me
I get afraid of the dark sometimes
I can't see
When the light shines i find it's only me
I am the flood
And i am the cleansing
Reckless and pure still unsure
I got aimless precision
I am the savior
And i am my brother
Holding me in locking me out
Different room for a different doubt
Chorus
I am the blood
And i am the heartbeat
I am the needle drawing me from me
Seperate vials for the vile i see
Chorus

11. _ The Man Who Would Be Santa
And the man who would be santa slips into the room
And the hour of daylight's yet to come but he hopes they don't wake too soon
All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow
The children sleep upstairs and santa works below
And he can hear the children dreaming
Chorus
And he says
All i want is for you to have
A life you love and live
Take from me all i have to give
Because you are in my heart
And the man who would be santa tells his son to write
And to call him if he needs him in the middle of the night
Don't you worry don't you cry now you'll do just fine
Your mother and i love you
We think about you all the time
And he can see the train is leaving
Chorus
Now the old man sits and tells of days when time stood still
The hours always seem to fade but the memory never will
All the love that you gave me
All the dreams in the night
And i just want to thank you while the day's still light
But i can see the sun is setting
Chorus

12. _ On The Sea
No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face
Cool sand upon the place where i once kissed you
And held you close
Now i will reach for the stars
Because oh my love, that's where you are
Chorus:
Though the storms of black night rage on
I still see your face
I still feel your lips on mine
And though my heart feels all alone without you
I still hear you sing to me
I still hear your voice on the sea
Waves crash break the silence
Gulls cry a song of lament
I walk on through the stormy night
The air cries flash of anger
Dark night enshrouds the stranger all alone without you
Now i will reach for the stars
Because oh my love, that's where you are
Chorus
No fog clear in the moonlight
The stars shine so bright now's the time
I close my eyes - soft wind touching my face
Cool sand upon the place where i once kissed you
And held you close
Now i will reach for the stars
Because oh my love, that's where you are
Chorus
