Young Blood 04:04
Young Blood stick it out face your palms to the sun Run through the muck Fill your bucket from the river Oh Love pick it up I Got your back Your front and sides These are the hands and the mind of a giver oh oh oh oh Young Blood oh oh oh oh Young blood She opened her arms Her arms to the world The world threw her down to remind her to open her ears her ears to the sound The sound of the song would define her She opened her eyes her eyes to the face the face of the stranger who held her no longer held captive captive to the race He erased all the chains that compelled her

I wanna get you in my skin churning like the ocean only then can i awake and feel myself begin I wanna fight for my own strength cracking through the pavement bones of harmony and flesh learning to see My skeleton of stone my heart of burning bone my rapturous tone my aching for home My dance upon my tomb my butterfly wings i've sewn my aching for home If you want my spirit whole release me let me go only then can i awake direct my own arrow I want the freedom to devour every precious hour like it is the only reason for everything im feeling My skeleton of stone my heart of burning bone my rapturous tone my aching for home My dance upon my tomb my butterfly wings i've sewn my aching for home

You're an island of a girl Adrift in a world with a rising tide You know that the coming storm Is gonna be a crazy ride With your altars made of trash The aftermath Of disposable dreams You know that you were born For more than what machines provide I will write you a song that sounds like A faded photograph Of your favorite night Just a little something to remember me by You can sing along If you like it enough Play it on your phonograph It sounds kinda rough It's just a little something to remember me by You're an ocean of a girl Surrounding a world With a blackening tide You know that the coming storm Is gonna be a crazy ride With your altars made of bones The aftermath Of disposable wings You know that you were born For more than what machines provide Machines provide I will write you a song that sounds like A faded photograph Of your favorite night Just a little something to remember me by You can sing along If you like it enough Play it on your phonograph It sounds kinda rough It's just a little something to remember me by You can sing along if you like it enough Just a little something to remember me by

Deliverance 03:39
Out here In here Reaching for the chance to make a difference Deliverance Deliver us on time What we find we brushed it off Dusted off things we didn't see The fantasy Fancy Fancy this as real life Out there out where the worlds shadow seems too much to touch a strand to lend a hand we need a thread to pull us through The curtain hides all the lies all the lies between the folds What we find behind the blinds are the things that we can do Out here In here Reaching for the chance to make a difference Deliverance Deliver us on time
5.
take me out of context and i'll get out of my way oh it seems complicated it don't have to be complex its just another day but look how long we've waited
6.
This road is paved with tricksters and fools oh deceivers The gravel's loose so tighten up your shoes we're all saints and non-believers A miracle in one hand and the other holds a ball and chain we thirst for liberation we thirst for the rise of fame This road is paved with pictures and tools oh revealers the journeys long so you better make your move we're all heathens and we're healers A miracle in one hand and the other holds a ball and chain we thirst for liberation we thirst for the rising flame
7.
Traces 04:13
Come home to find say its been a long time all thats left of you in my mind is traces I wonder can your essence still fill up all those empty spaces The sight of you is like the morning dew so refreshing so sweet and yet so cold you're so damn cold sometimes you're so damn cold sometimes
8.
Are you ready to turn the page Is your hand steady or shaking from all the rage you've read it a thousand times before the same old story the same old war Tolling Bells Silent Ringing Sorrow Swells Slowly Singing The Sparrow's Spell Will you stand there waiting for the train Or just start walking Towards the change we've been here a thousand times before the same old story different door Tolling Bells Silent Ringing Sorrow Swells Slowly Singing The Sparrow's Spell Are you ready to turn the page Is your hand steady or shaking from all the rage you've read it a thousand times before the same old story the same old war the same old story NO MORE
9.
When we woke up the silence was ringing like a diamond and the ribbons unfurled like the sighing wind my heart is beating with the force of the storming sea as i retreat into thee North coast steady rain places i've never been feel more like home than my home does wanderlust and bliss in the bluster The glint of her eyes reflects the shadow into dawn revealed by a key beneath the waves they opened to morning like a dew drops mirrored dream as the onrush of waters burst into flame North coast steady rain places i've never been feel more like home than my home does wanderlust and bliss in the bluster
10.
I've Walked alone for centuries my only map my destiny So many days spent wandering Til I become the desert I drag my feet I scrape my knees Guided by starlight and whisperings Til I become the desert And the view from above is the same from the ground yeah in the middle of the madness in the madness you are found I've Walked alone for centuries my only map my destiny So many days spent wandering Til I become the desert I lift my feet I catch the breeze Guided by starlight and whisperings Til I become the desert Til I become the desert Til I become the desert when we become the desert when we become the desert With this body made of heat where the day draws the line I will lay you down again on the sands of time on the sands of time yeah

Venus 04:50
I remember the feeling yeah it was mid-summer i dialed your number it rang and i played you a tune Now winter's upon us and the dawn that birthed us has turned us straight back into earthdust again so we pray to the moon Even Venus couldn't tell what would become of summers spell I cast a line off the shore Drank Fruit of the vine and fell to the floor and fell to the floor I remember the feeling yeah i was mid-slumber you turned me over and tucked me under your sky Now the sky is falling but falling is learning the stars are burning we had to give it a try so we gave it a try Even Venus couldn't tell what would become of summers spell i cast a line of the shore Drank fruit of the vine and begged for more begged for more
12.
Passerby 05:08
Im just a passerby always flying above your head but if you never look up then how will you know that i'm there You're just a wanderer i've been dropping feathers letters You never read them so how will you know that i care Im headed north to the land of the midnight sun Solitary migration Solitary migration always moving at the speed of sound Im just a passerby always flying above your head but if you never look up then how will you know that i'm there You're just a wanderer i've been dropping feathers letters You never read them so how will you know that i care Im headed east to the land of the rising sun Solitary migration Solitary migration Im headed north to the land of the midnight sun solitary migration solitary migration Always moving at the speed of sound Moving at the speed of sound Moving at the speed of sound Moving at the speed of sound Im just a passerby
