When you find yourself falling down
Your hopes in the sky
But your heart like
Grape gum on the ground
And you try to find yourself
In the abstractions of religion
And the cruelty of everyone else
And you wake up to realize
Your standard of living
Somehow got stuck on survive

And when you're standing
In deep water
And you're bailing yourself
Out with a straw
And when you're drowning
In deep water
And you wake up
Making love to a wall

Well it's these little times
That help to remind
It's nothing without love

When you realize your only friend 
Has never been yourself or anyone
Who cared in the end
That's when suddenly everything
Fades or falls away
Cause the chains which once held us
Are only the chains which we've made

Cause when you're standing
In deep water
And you're bailing yourself
Out with a straw
When you're drowning
In deep water
And you wake up
Making love to a wall

Well it's these little times
That help to remind
It's nothing without love, love, love
It's nothing without love

We've compromised our pride
We've sacrificed our health
We must demand more
Not from each other
But more from ourselves

Cause when you're standing
In deep water
And you're bailing yourself
Out with a straw
When you're drowning
In deep water
And you wake up
Making love to a wall

Well it's these little times
That help to remind
It's nothing without love, love, love
It's nothing without love
It's nothing without love

Turn to me with frozen lips
Your hands are icy cold
Your eyes burn bright
Against the frost-bit sky
You never seemed more lovely
Than you do tonight

Pale on the horizon
Like leaves frozen in the snow
Two bodies merge inseparably
Will time stand still
If it's pierced with cold?

The more I live
The more I know
What's simple is true
I love you

There's a warmth in my heart 
It's haunts me when you're gone
Mend me to your side
And never let go
Time knows nothing
We'll never grow cold

The more I live
The more I know
What's simple is true
I love you

Twilight descends
On our silhouette
How soon Spring comes
How soon Spring forgets

I wanna hold time
Say it'll never begin
Old Man Winter, be our friend
Old Man Winter, be our friend

Cause the more I live
The more I know
What's simple is true
What's simple is true
I love you
I love you

If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all okay
And not to worry
Cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
Won't be idle with despair
Will gather myself
Around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear

My hands are small I know
But they're not yours
They are my own
But they're not yours
They are my own
And I am never broken

Poverty stole your golden shoes
But it didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
But I knew it wasn't ever after
We will fight
Not out of spite
But someone must stand up
For what's right
Cause where there's a man
Who has no voice
There ours shall go singing

My hands are small I know
But they're not yours
They are my own
But they're not yours
They are my own
And I am never broken

In the end only kindness matters
In the end only kindness matters

I will get down on my knees
And I will pray
I will get down on my knees
And I will pray
I will get down on my knees
And I will pray

My hands are small I know
But they're not yours
They are my own
But they're not yours
They are my own
And I am never broken

My hands are small I know
But they're not yours
They are my own
But they're not yours
They are my own
And I am never broken
We are never broken

We are God's hands
God's eyes
God's heart
We are God's hands
God's eyes
God's mind
We are God's hands
We are God's hands
We are reflections of God
We are reflections of God

Please love let's make
No impartial vow
Let all fall away
That's not crucial now
I want a brave love
One that makes me
Weak in the knees
I want a crazy, crazy love
One that makes me
Come undone at the seams

Cause I'm tired
Of all these Pilgrims
These Puritans, these thieves
Of all the unbelievers
Who whittle love
Down at the knees
Let these swift roads
Destroy themselves
Let the world fall into it's sleep
For we shall be spared
We shall be left standing
To face what's left
Of concrete and honey

Kiss the flame
Let's run with the hunted
The untamed
Kiss the flame
Embrace the faceless
The unnamed
Kiss the flame

There are nightmares
On the sidewalks
There are jokes on TV
They are people
Selling thoughtlessness
With such casualty
Oh, wherefore art thou, Romeo?
Where have all the brave men gone?
Show me one man
Who knows his own heart
To him I shall belong

Kiss the flame
Let's run with the hunted
The untamed
Kiss the flame
Embrace the faceless
The unnamed
Kiss the flame
Kiss the flame
Kiss the flame

Please love let's make
No impartial vow

The sun sets across the ocean 
I'm a thousand miles from anywhere 
My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen 
And that sun acts like she don't even care 
Wind blows cold when you reach the top 
It feels like someone's face is stuck to the bottom of my shoe 
I got a plastic Jesus, a cordless telephone 
For every corner of my room 
Got everybody but you telling me what to do 

Well, I've been down so long 
Oh, it can't be longer still 
I've been down so long 
That the end must be drawing near 

Looked to everybody but me to answer my prayers 
'Til I saw an angel in a bathroom 
She said she saw no one worth saving anywhere 
A blind man on the corner said it's simple 
Like flipping a coin 
Don't matter what side it lands on 
If it's someone else's dime 

But I've been down so long 
Oh, it can't be longer still 
I've been down so long 
That the end must be drawing near 

I take a trip, I catch a train 
I catch a plane 
I've got a ticket in my hand 
Then a fat man takes my money 
And like cattle we all stand 

We've been down so long 
Oh, it can't be longer still, no 
We've been down so long 
That the end must be.. 
Oh, I know the end must be.. 
Oh, I know the end must be drawing near

Ophelia drowned in the water 
Crushed by her own weight 
Hitler loved little blue-eyed boys 
And it drove him to hate 
Birds always grow silent 
Before the night descends 
'Cause nature has a funny way of 
Breaking what does not bend 

A hero's torso built of steel and novocaine 
His heart a bitter beat inside a bloodless frame 
There was a hole inside his soul 
A manicure couldn't fill 
So he found himself a whore to love 
While daisies choked in windowsills 

We've made houses for hatred 
It's time we made a place where 
People's souls made be seen and made safe 
Be careful with each other, these fragile flames 
For innocence can't be lost 
It just needs to be maintained 

A small town in Ohio 
Two boys are filled with violence 
And darkness spreads its legs 
For hate and ignorance 
We are given to God to put our faith therein 
But to be forgiven we must first believe in sin 

We've made houses for hatred 
It's time we made a place where 
People's souls made be seen and made safe 
Be careful with each other, these fragile flames 
For innocence can't be lost 
It just needs to be maintained 

I want to live bravely and love without fear 
I want always to feel the wings of grace near 
We all will be Christed when we hear ourselves say 
We are that to which we pray 

We've made houses for hatred 
It's time we made a place where 
People's souls made be seen and made safe 
Be careful with each other, these fragile flames 
For innocence can't be lost 
It just needs to be maintained 
Innocence can't be lost 
It just needs to be maintained

Venus De Milo in her half-baked shell 
Understood the nature of love very well 
She said, 'A good love is delicious 
You can't get enough too soon 
It makes you so crazy 
You want to swallow the moon" 

Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, Jupiter 
Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, be still my little heart 
Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, love is a flame 
Neither timid nor tame 

Take these stars from my crown 
Let the years fall down 
Lay me out in firelight 
Let my skin feel the night 
Fasten me to your side 
Say it'll be soon 
You make me so crazy, baby 
I could swallow the moon 

My hands are two travelers 
They've crossed oceans and land 
Yet they are too small 
On the continent of your skin 
Wandering, wandering 
I could spend my life 
Traveling the length of your body each night 

Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, Jupiter 
Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, be still my little heart 
Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, love is a flame 
Neither timid nor tame 

Take these stars from my crown 
Let the years fall down 
Lay me out in firelight 
Let my skin feel the night 
Fasten me to your side 
Say it'll be soon 
You make me so crazy, baby 
I could swallow the moon 
Swallow the moon 

Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, Jupiter 
Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, be still my little heart 
Oh-ooh-oh, Oh-ooh-oh, love is a flame 
Neither timid nor tame 

Take these stars from my crown 
Let the years fall down 
Lay me out in firelight 
Let my skin feel the night 
Fasten me to your side 
Say it'll be soon 
You make me so crazy, baby 
I could swallow the moon 
Swallow the moon 
Swallow the moon 
Swallow the moon

Fat boy goes to the pool 
Sees his reflection 
Doesn't know what to do 
He feels little inside 
And filled with pride 

Oh, fragile flame 
No one sees the same 

Fat boy goes about his day 
Trying to think of funny things to say 
Like, 'This is just a game I play,' 
And, 'I like me this way' 

Oh, fragile flame 
No one feels the same 

Hush, sleep 
Don't think, just eat 
You're Daddy's little boy
You're Mama's pride and joy 
You know they love you 
But not because they hold you 

Fat boy says, 'Wouldn't it be nice 
If i could melt myself like ice? 
Or outrun my skin 
And just be pure wind' 

Oh, fragile flame 
Sometimes I feel the same

I went out a wandering 
Beneath an unknown sky 
The heavens all shook violently 
He caught my eye 
Strange fruit fell, it sruck me to the core 
My heart became a single flame 
It wanted nothing more 

Stranger, enter from the east 
Stranger, step inside this place 
Oh, and own me, own me 

The clock became a bullet hole 
Cruel and unkind 
It hurt me with its second hand 
Alone another night 

Stranger, enter from the east 
Stranger, step inside this place 

Blue, is that you? 
Well, don't bother knocking on my door this time 
Go be true for someone else 
There's no room inside this heart of mine 
My heart has four empty rooms 
Three wait for lighting and one waits for you 

I mist have you all to myself 
Feel the full weight of your skin 
I'll hollow out my insides to place you in 

Stranger, enter from the east 
Stranger, step inside this place 
Oh, and own me, own me

Barcelona, where the winds all blew 
The churches don't have windows 
But the graveyards do 
Me and my shadow are wrestling again 
Look out stranger, there's a dark cloud moving in 

But if you could hear the voice in my heart 
It would tell you I'm tired of being alone 
Won't somebody please hold me 
Release me, show me the meaning of mercy? 
Let me loose.. Fly, let me fly, let me fly 

Super paranoid, I'm blending, I'm blurring 
I am bleeding into the scenery 
Loving someone else is always so much easier 
But I hold myself hostage in the mirror 

But if you could hear the voice in my heart 
It would tell you I'm tired of feeling this way 
God, won't you please hold me 
Release me, show me the meaning of mercy? 
Let me loose.. Fly, let me fly 

And I won't be held down, I won't be held back 
I will lead with my faith 

The red light has been following me
But don't worry, Mother, it's no longer my gravity 

Hold me, release me, show me the meaning of mercy 
Let me fly, let me fly, let me fly

Don't worry Mother, it'll be alright 
And don't worry Sister, say your prayers and sleep tight 
And it'll be fine, lover of mine, it'll be just fine 

And lend your voices only to sounds of freedom 
No longer lend your strength 
To that which you wish to be free from 
Fill your lives with love and bravery 
And you shall lead a life uncommon 

I've heard your anguish, I've heard your hearts cry out 
We are tired, we are weary, but we aren't worn out 
Set down your chains 'til only faith remains 
Set down your chains 

And lend your voices only to sounds of freedom 
No longer lend your strength 
To that which you wish to be free from 
Fill your lives with love and bravery 
And you shall lead a life uncommon 

There are plenty of people who pray for peace 
But if praying were enough it would have come to be 
Let your words enslave no one 
And the heavens will hush themselves 
To hear our voices ring out clear with sounds of freedom 
Sounds of freedom 

Damn you unbelievers, move out of the way 
There is a new army coming 
And we are armed with faith 
To live, we must give.. To live 

And lend our voices only to sounds of freedom 
No longer lend your strength 
To that which you wish to be free from 
Fill your lives with love and bravery 
And you shall lead.. 
And lend our voices only to sounds of freedom 
No longer lend our strength 
To that which we wish to be free from 
Fill your lives with love and bravery 
And you shall lead a life uncommon

Hey, you say you like the way 
The cowboys tip their hats and say 
'How's it going man?' 
But you're never quite clear if their glares are sincere 
Or really only just second-hand 

To you it's all roses, it's a lavendar haze 
The man is a marvel, but it's a shame about his brains 
'But that's okay,' you say 
'He's got straight teeth and it's good sex' 

You look to the sky, you look to the man 
You claim innocence and not to understand 
Or do you?         Do you? 

There's a big man wearing a white suit 
and patent leather shoes 
He wants to take his monkeys to see the kids at the zoo 
'Cause the gypsy on the corner said 
'Hey Mister, you can't lose' 

And it's your first day at the track 
You feel that heat on your back 
We all want to find a way to beat the system 
Find some rhythm in the madness 

Get down on your knees and pray 
Say, 'I'll do whatever you want, God 
Just let me have my way' 
Or will you?      Will you? 

Come on all you merry men, rally your cry 
Dance with the devil for tomorrow we'll surely 
Hey, hey, blow the men down 

You with all your cigarettes and cool stares 
Filled with blank glares and loaded regrets 
Just like the girls today with nothing to say 
No more pigtails and pony rides 
They're sophisticated, they sip on lattes 
And have their eyes on a bigger prize 

We shake our fists and say 
'Well, good golly, we're mad 
That God kills our children 
With our very own hands' 
We claim innocence and not to understand 
Or do we?       Do we? 

Come on all you merry men, rally your cry 
Dance with the devil for tomorrow we'll surely 
Hey, hey, blow the men down 
Blow the men down, hey

Inside my skin there is this space 
It twists and turns, it bleeds and aches
Inside my heart there's an empty room 
It's waiting for lightning, it's waiting for you 

And I am wanting 
And I am needing you here 
Inside the absence of fear 

Muscle and sinew, velvet and stone 
This vessel is haunted, it creaks and moans 
My bones call to you in their seperate skin 
I make myself translucent to let you in, for 

I am wanting 
And I am needing you here 
Inside the absence of fear 

There is this hunger 
This restlessness inside of me 
And it knows that you're no stranger 
You're my gravity 
My hands will adore you 
Through all darkness aim 
And they will lay you other in moonlight 
And reinvent your name, for 

I am wanting 
And I am needing you here 
I need you near 
Inside the absence of fear

There's a little bird somebody sent 
Down to the Earth to live on the wind 
Blowing on the wind, and she sleeps on the wind 
This little bird somebody sent 
Light and fragile and feathered sky blue 
Thin and graceful, the sun shining through 
She flies so high up in the sky 
Way out of reach of human eyes 
Light and fragile and feathered sky blue 
Thin and graceful, the sun shining through 
She flies so high up in the sky 
Way out of reach of human eyes 
Light and fragile, she's feathered sky blue 
Thin and graceful, the sun shining through 
And the only time that she touches ground 
Is when that little bird, little bird 
Is when that little bird, little bird 
Is when that little bird dies
