Call To Arms

There's a little black dark scar tired divide
This is it, can you hear me?
Have you ever felt a sad heart buried alive?
You can do almost anything.
There's a little red bridge with the view of the sun
With a lake, recommend such a setting site
And the thousands of stars, come out thousands of times
We can go, only if you believe.
Only if you believe.

Do you feel like you've lost everything you can lose?
This is it, can you hear me?
When you cry do your tears ever chill up the room?
Calling out in a moment of need.
Do you ever lay awake with the look in the eye?
Asking God if a wish is too big to deny?
I will offer a line, and it's ready for use.
Let me know, are you ready for me?

I'd like to say, that you're my only fear.
And when I dream, it slowly disappears.
And when I wake, I'm right there by your side.
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time.

When the storm brings rain, snow, fate of all kinds
You can feel most anything.
When the day seems to melt, fall flat into night
You can feel almost anything.
When you can't go on, you gotta get up and try.
This is it, can you feel me?
And when the bombs come down, we will make it alive.
But only If you want to believe.

I'd like to say, that you're my only fear.
And when I dream, it slowly disappears.
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side.
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time.

I'd like to say, that you're my only fear.
And when I dream, it slowly disappears.
And when I wake, I'm right here by your side.
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time. (out of time..)

(When I dream)
You're my only
(When I dream)
I feel your heart.
(When I dream)
I'm out of time (I feel your heart)
(When I dream)
I'm out of time

I feel your heart..
I feel your heart..
I feel your heart..
I feel your heart..

I'd like to say, that you're my only fear.
And when I dream, it slowly disappears.
And when I wake, i'm right here by your side.
To feel your heart, beat in and out of time.

Everything's Magic

And do you ever feel like you're alone?
And do you ever wish to be unknown?
I can say that I have
I can say that I have
And do you ever feel things here aren't right?
And do you ever feel the time slip by?
And I can say that I have
And I can say that I have

So hear this please
And watch as your heart speeds up endlessly
And look for the stars as the sun goes down
Each breath that you take has a thunderous sound
Everything, everything's magic
Just sit back and hold on, but hold on tight
Prepare for the best and the fastest ride
And reach out your hand and I'll make you mine
Everything, everything's magic

And do you ever lay awake at night?
And do you ever tell yourself don't try?
Don't try to let yourself down
Don't try to let yourself down
And do you ever see yourself in love?
And do you ever take a chance, my love?
Because you know that I will
Because you know that I will

Everything, everything's magic

Breathe

A blue, black shade of love.
Sent from above.
My hands are tied to worlds unknown,
And this I know.
Your breath's like wine,
And just like clouds, my skin crawls.
It's so divine, the sky it glows with fields of light.

Did you know that I love you?
Come and lay with me.
I love you.
And honesty, I love you.
You make me feel alive,
and I'll love you
Until the end of time.

My hands shake clasped with fear as you come near
To say goodnight, just like a dove.
A peaceful sign.
To help us by as you come in.
Let this begin.
Stars fall like dust, our lips will touch.
We speak too much.

Did you know that I love you?
Come and lay with me.
I love you.
And honesty, I love you.
You make me feel alive,
and I'll love you
Until the end of time.

I've got a lot to say, if you will let me
It's always hard, when you're around me
But here right now, there's interest in your eyes
So hear me out, and hear this the first time

That I...love you (come and lay with me)
I...love you (and honesty)
I...love you (you make me feel alive)
I...love you
Till the end of time

Love Like Rockets

"Through the marvels of scientific advance
My voice is coming to you from a satellite circling in outer space.
Through this unique means, I convey to you and to all mankind
America's wish for peace on Earth."

I held my head, as it left the ground
The belts grew tight, as the blast grew loud
The loving wish, whispered in my ear
Please leave with grace, all the best my dear, yeah.
Its like...I held your hand as I pulled you in
Your lips sealed tight, ready to begin
I kissed you first then you kissed my ear
If I ask you once, will you ask me every year.

Do you feel alive?
(Imagine, Imagine..)
Do you feel alive?
(Imagine, Imagine..)

The sun, it set in the night time sky
The stars they cast a glow upon my eyes
The Earth itself a burning ball of light, yeah.
Its like...and our first love was ignited, late that night.

Do you feel alive?
(Imagine, Imagine..)
Do you feel alive?
(Imagine, Imagine..)

The stars in your eyes, light up the sky
With all its light, and fire, and sound

The stars in your eyes, light up the sky (Do you feel alive?)
With all its light, and fire, and sound (Imagine, Imagine..)

Sirens

There's a weakness in the window
Place my footprints in the dark room
There's loney voices like a scarecrow
In the hallway like a lost ghost
In the bedroom I see a shadow
From the moon with light from a candle
On a bed frame lies a girl
Her reflection in the mirror

Ladada, dadada, dadada, dadala dada
I like your eyes wide
Ladada, dadada, dadada, dadala dada
Been knocking at your backdoor
Ladada dadada, dadada, dadala dada
Nervous like a night fight
Ladada, dadada, dadada, dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for

I do this from time to time
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time)
I do this from time to time
Where I like to think of you with me

It's a dark night on the West Coast
Then a soft breeze as the sun rose
Then the phone rang like a gunshot
Like a siren on the beach rock
There's a message at the river
A certain package here to deliver
When the day breaks after nightfall
I will be there, you know I will

Ladada, dadada, dadada, dadala dada
I like your eyes wide
Ladada, dadada dadada, dadala dada
Been knocking at your backdoor
Ladada, dadada, dadada, dadala dada
Nervous like a night fight
Ladada, dadada, dadada, dadala dada
Be careful what you ask for

I can hear you breathe
I'm feeling you shake
And the sound of my heartbeat
Can't let go
Do you know?
I'm feeling the pain
Of my first love
I let it go
Can't let go

I do this from time to time (Can't let go)
Where I can never wake from a bad dream (from time to time)
I do this from time to time (Can't let go)
Where I can never say the things I mean (from time to time)
I do this from time to time (Can't let go)
Where I like to watch you as you sleep (from time to time)
I do this from time to time (Can't let go)
Where I wanna taste you as you breathe (Can't let go)

Secret Crowds

(with echo)
If I had my own world...
I'd build you an empire...
(echo off)

If I had my own world
I'd fill it with wealth and desire
A glorious past to admire
And voices of kids out walking dogs, birds, planes, trains and cars

If I had my own world
I'd love it for all that's inside it
There'd be no more wars, death or riots
There'd be no more face-packed parking lots, guns, bombs sounding off,

If I had my own world
I'd build you an empire
From here to the far lands
To spread love like violence
If I had my own world
I'd build you an empire
From here to the far lands
To spread love like violence

Let me feel you carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

If I had my own world
I'd show you the life that's inside it
The way that it glows when you find it
The way it survives with it's families, friends or it's enemies

Let's make this a new world
I swear you can go if you'd want to
I know that you have that within you
Inventing the first clean and usable, God's greatest miracle

Let me feel you carry you higher
Watch our words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me heal you, carry you higher
Watch your words spread hope like fire
Secret crowds rise up and gather
Hear your voices sing back louder

Star Of Bethlehem

This song is instrumental

True Love

What are you waiting for?
She's said
She's a star, somewhere in the night time sky

Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh

The snow, has come down, on top of everything
The town, is alive and well without you. (she's said)
The lights, they peer out, of the leafless trees
And you won't, be alone, I am beside you. (beside you)

Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh

(True love) The stars in the sky, illuminate below
The light is the sign, that love will guide you home.
The stars in the sky, illuminate below
If the world were to die, the light will guide you.

Tears, spilling out, across a dead end street
Your house, is a lonely box that holds you. (she's a star)
A star, bright and loud, is in dire need
Of the fear, it is an empty fear inside you.

Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh
Yowayohwayohwayoh

(True love) The stars in the sky, illuminate below
The light is the sign, that love will guide you home.
The stars in the sky, illuminate below
If the world were to die, the light will guide you.

The stars in the sky, illuminate below
The light is the sign, that love will guide you home.
The stars in the sky, illuminate below
If the world were to die, the light will guide you.

(True love) The stars in the sky, illuminate below
The light is the sign, that love will guide you home.
The stars in the sky, illuminate below
If the world were to die, the light will guide you.

The stars in the sky, illuminate below
The light is the sign, that love will guide you home.
The stars in the sky, illuminate below
If the world were to die, the light will guide you.

(True love) The stars in the sky, illuminate below
The light is the sign, that love will guide you home.
(True love) The stars in the sky, illuminate below
If the world were to die, the light will guide you.

(She's a star)

Lifeline

With an urgent, careful stare
And some panic in those eyes
If I see you lying there
Hoping this was the last time
If you hear a distant sound
And some footsteps by your side
When the world comes crashing down
I will find you, if you hide..

And if you wish it, wish it now..
If you wish it, wish it loud..
If you want it, say it now..
If you want it, say it loud..

We all make mistakes
Here's your lifeline
If you want to, I want to

We all make mistakes
Here's your lifeline
If you want to, I want to..

There's a field near the dream
I watched it grow with the widest life
I watched us all reach out and lean
For the strength that touched the sky
If you hear a distant sound
And some footsteps by your side
If you feel like coming 'round
I will take you for a ride

And if you wish it, wish it now
If you wish it, wish it loud
If you want it, say it now
If you want it, say it loud

We all make mistakes
Here's your lifeline
If you want to, I want to

We all make mistakes
Here's your lifeline
If you want to, I want to..

Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to)
Yah-oh oh, whoa-oh-oh (If you want to, I want to...)

Jumping Rooftops

Rite Of Spring

I was locked all day in the summer heat
In a small brown house in suburban streets
The skateboard and my shit guitar
I dream all day that they would get me far
My dad would ask me about my grades
The asshole sports that I never played
And then i'd ask about the girls he'd date
Behind our backs when mom would stay up late
It was near when I turned sixteen
Got kicked out of school and so it seemed
That things were closing in and ready to blow
My dad moved out about that year or so
It took him hours, start a punk rock band
To offset my fucked up family land
And as I helped, my mom would start to cry
I swore ourselves a better life.

If I had a chance for another try...
I wouldn't change a thing...
This made me all of who I am inside...
And if I could thank God
That I am here and that I am alive...
And everyday I wake
I tell myself a little harmless lie...
The whole wide world is mine...

The summer's gone
The years have passed
My friends have changed, a few did last
The smallest dreams, got pushed aside
The largest ones, that changed my life
And all i've wished for, has come to pass
From rock'n'roll, to love and cash
It's all success if it's what you need
Do what you like, and do it honestly.

Yo, oh, oh-oh
Yo, oh, oh
Yo, oh, oh-oh
Yo, oh, oh
Yo, oh, oh-oh
Yo, oh, oh
Yo, oh, oh-oh
Yo, oh, oh

Heaven

I will run the streets and hostile lands
I will touch the rain with all I have
I will breathe the air, just scream it loud
My feet will never touch the ground
Because the days they feel like ancient clocks
Like when kids grow up and learn to walk
Because your life is full of pure desire
A place so gloriously wired

The lights and sounds
Oh God this is such a mess
And it's like our world
But we're the last ones left
And the hair it stands
On the back of our necks
And I swear it shows
Heaven must be just like this

Do you see the hills beneath the clouds?
The stars and its to lead you out
Can you sense the pain? It's everywhere
And if you try you'll never care
And the love you had
When you were young
Is right outside for all to come
Because your life is full of pure desire
A life so gloriously wired

If you see the light break through the clouds
And fire up the distant towns
Now the world will be begin
Exactly how it ends
When you call for help when you are lost
For evermore or what ever it costs
And the world will begin
Exactly how it ends

Please stay
Don't go
I've got you now
Are you curious?
Please stay
