La Serena 04:22
Run soon, away Run soon, the only thing And I know, if you choose not to decide Well you still have made a choice Cause I know this thing goes on and on and on.. Forgot to run away (here i am) For I’ve got to run away Forgot to run away (here I am) For I’ve got run away Look soon, away Look soon, the veiled trail Well I guess, a soft rain feels just right And I can’t be wrong this time, Cause I gotta reign it in before it gets away Forgot to run away (here i am) For I’ve got to run away Forgot to run away (here I am) For I’ve got run away As I look out upon the day A quiet crown atop the haze The Northern Andes show their face To the West, the endless ocean waves Never felt a softer rain Never gave myself the time of day Forgot to run away (here i am) For I’ve got to run away Forgot to run away (here I am) For I’ve got run away And I can’t be wrong this time Cause I know it’s on the line And I can’t be wrong this time Cause you’ve known it all the while

Looking out onto the pier Shores come from heaven's light Dissipates beyond the tideline Glowing over a champagne night You tell yourself you've always been here A rendezvous within your mind Clemency from austere windstorms Is enough to silence our voices We are counting on you.. To bring us out into The Rain We isolate From all the frugal ideas That we can't afford they're in vein They're in a wake For the shallow reminder That words cannot always remain It's been quite a long time Have you noticed the shore's light It's been quite a long time Wander toward the moonlight A consciousness from night’s duress Yearning for the sun’s caress Outstretched hands in front of me If I could only get to sleep The nightmare finds me in heap Emerging dawn begins to creep As the umbrage starts to seep Dive in the sea to finally breathe We are counting on you.. To bring us out into The Rain We isolate From all the frugal ideas That we can't afford they're in vein They're in a wake For the shallow reminder That words cannot always remain It's been quite a long time Have you noticed the shore's light It's been quite a long time Wander toward the moonlight

I'm counting the cracks and I'm counting the seams I'm opening eyes with the things I'm teaching And I will never come to this When I woke up this morning I smelled bliss The sun peered in and I looked outside I looked a hummingbird right in her eye And she will never sing her song About how she fell from a nest built so strong I wrote a multi-volume narrative Containing reasons for the lives we live It corresponded with the things I've lost I've been frugal but I've paid the costs The aura from the city makes me eclectic Numerous buildings tall, symmetrical I've been to slums and I've seen the streets In tenant houses, kids have dirty feet Another politic's guilt, they still don't repent Our minds are controlled by the dollars and cents Breathing in what your body puts out In the soup line, there's always another mouth The trains arrive and the people go by The air was wet and the ground was dry Sometimes the hardest things will come At a point in life when your legs won't run Measuring signs all across the state Walking in patterns one can't calculate You have your beliefs but they start to abate You swear you love him, but you still hesitate Often service can be spread so thin Then why is it based on the color of skin? From time to time, I wish I painted To let the brush describe the me I hate Extensive details can be heard in my head It's just an excuse to not get out of the bed This is caused from a lack of motivation A supplement of a lack of sensation I will see you in the news

On a Holiday 04:11
Last Night she closed on the am These words will make her find a way Out loud, she please for a Holiday But this girl, never knows what to say Arrives home to her apartment She resides a recluse of the day To make rent, she persuades for a night, She awakes, relieved but battered again Scratch a ticket with a hopeful wish in mind Back in - Heels on, she’s never looking back Barraged from zealots of the cross Ignored when these two worlds collide But it’s all right If it’s something that you had Well, it’s too hard now But it’s all right If it’s something that you had I know, I know Commit when nothing is in her way Feet down, she’ll make it through the months Smokes are inherent to her life The role model, she always condescends She hears of better days from her friends The life she wishes to obtain A new job, a new house in the hills In this life, she’s never giving up But it’s all right If it’s something that you had Well, it’s too hard now But it’s all right If it’s something that you had I know, I know What it takes to make her feel this I think that she can hear this I think that she can feel this But it’s all right If it’s something that you had Well, it’s too hard now But it’s all right If it’s something that you had I know, I know I know, I know I know, I know I know, I know

They come canvassed in white And now we break through Talbot's lines For his command's in dire strain To sear the lions head, the maiden dons her blade As archers light their bows Intrepid horns that carry out our song And with hell upon our gates For England, you will truly rue the day you came It's the last thing that we'll ever know For the Maid of Orleans grace The northern crosses have been donned in blood And the spectres flee from Rouen's wake The sound of steel, a new tale told from shore to state It's the last thing that we'll ever know If I am not… may he make me And if I am… so he'll keep me For all I am For all I am For all I am For all I am For All I am
