These walls surround me
Their colors shining bright
They walk beside me
As you're wandering in my mind
The church bell’s ringing
While birds repeat her songs
Like choirs singing
About peace for everyone
Peace for everyone
And what we are grows from the trees while all their leafs speak quietly
About people's lives and people's lore to feed our hearts forevermore
Warm light surrounds me
The trees lift up their hands
They walk beside me
As I'm discovering new lands
And scenting flowers
Spread their colors oh so bright
While all these hours
You're still wandering in my mind
You are wandering in my mind
And what we are grows from the sea while memories pass quietly
And waves move in to meet the shore to feed our hearts forevermore
I´m running, running through the alleys
Finding out what love is
Come with me, run with me
These walls surround me
Their colors shining bright
You walk beside me
And everything seems right

Seaside Sunlight
03:57
|

There are golden arches on the seaside when sunlight gently rides her back
And the wind is singing songs while she's softly breathing in my neck
I've been searching
And I've been lost
I've been wandering
Without a place to stop
But in this bed of sand that carries me to sleep
I listen
I see
And the sea relieves...
A million people see the sun set in the sea, but I feel that it's just me
While I softly stroke her with my left hand, my right hand is putting her to sleep
I've been searching
And I've been lost
I've been wandering
Without a place to stop
But in this summer heat that slowly warms my soul
I surrender
I let go
And the sun resolves...
Please, please leave me
Please leave me here
In the seaside sunlight
I've got nothing left to fear...

Fingertips

I lick my fingertips again to turn another page
When suddenly the black on white turns into grey
Stories left unwritten
Stories left unread
Confusing shapes they come and pass behind my window frame
I touch the shades I touch the glass I touch my innerstate
The one who lit my fire
Took the flame
But I don't know what I am waiting for
Oh I don't know what I want it to be, what I want it to be
The sand beneath my toes feels like an arid plain
Can't tell which way I have to go 'cause everything's the same
Trails left uncertain
Trails left unsafe
Four-letter words, four-letter thoughts that's how it comes to me
I hear a sound, I hear a voice, I hear a melody
The one who sings me songs
Is the one who knows the beat
But I don't know what I am waiting for
Oh I don't know what I want it to be, what I want it to be
No I don't know what I am waiting for
Oh I don't know what I want it to be, what I want it to be
It's in the way you talk to me

Revival Song
04:04

A different sky
A different sight
A different glow
A different light
I feel a change, I feel a change inside
A different body
A different soul
A different mindset
A different goal
I feel a change, I feel a change inside
And the wind is blowing in my face
The wind is blowing in my face
I feel a change, I feel a change
There's a fire in my eyes
There's a love song in my cries
There's a change inside of me
And the wind is blowing in my face
The wind is blowing in my face
I feel a change, I feel a change
Learn learn, devise devise
Earn earn, apprise apprise
Crawl crawl and walk and walk
Listen listen and talk and talk
Whispers whispers and shouts and shouts
Safety safety and doubt and doubt
Affection affection, disgust disgust
Hatred hatred and lust and lust
Burn, revive
There's so much left in life
Don't look away now
There's a change
Inside of me

Cry, I won’t cry for you
Laugh, I won’t laugh for you
And scream, I won’t scream for you
Shout, shout, I won’t shout for you
Let all your emotions go
Before your head, before it overflows
Let them go, let them go
Your head is lighter when it’s empty than when it's full
Run, run like a rabbit until there’s nowhere else to run
And jump, jump like a kangaroo, further than anyone else
And breath, I won’t breath for you
And leave, leave everything behind of you
Let all your emotions go
Before your head, before it overflows
Let them go, let them go
Your head is lighter when it’s empty than when it's full
