Secret Place 03:31
In our secret place, I meet you Far from all this shame I cling to Battles in my mind, fading from my sight You call to me in stains of scarlet red and yellow bound And whisper as the sun begins to fade to the ground Though darkness lingers over every shadow that I make Still you call me by name Crippled by the fear I hold to Strengthened by the way I need you Battles in my mind, fading from my sight You call to me in stains of scarlet red and yellow bound And whisper as the sun begins to fade to the ground Though darkness lingers over every shadow that I make Still you call me by name You call to me in stains of scarlet red and yellow bound And whisper as the sun begins to fade to the ground Though darkness lingers over every shadow that I make Still you call me by name Still you call me by name

Mountains quake at the heart that breaks you can’t hide this hurt in those eyes On these cold brittle river stones will the weight break through all your lies? Painted grey by the promise made Torn apart by the words you say Will it start to shade away what’s inside? Words that fall from a lonely call as the wind blows through your cold heart Winters grave whispers in this cave will it be the way we depart Painted grey by the promise made Torn apart by the words you say Will it start to shade away what’s inside? frozen for so long knowing that your gone holding on to hope you left oh so cold Painted grey by the promise made Torn apart by the words you say Will it start to shade away what’s inside? Will it start to shade away what’s inside?

Fallin' 03:29
There are things I’ve done I never should’ve done Things I’ve said, I never should’ve said I can’t forget and its messing with my head The things I’ve done, the things I’ve said I’d be tellin’ lies if I said that I’d be good That every time I do everything I should If I tried, tried, did the very best I could Wouldn’t be enough I could not be good, I’m Fallin’ Fallin’ I am Fallin’ Fallin’ I am Fallin’ Fallin’ Into the arms of mercy So I pray for grace I know I don’t deserve And all I have couldn’t pay You what its worth But you said its mine so I take You at your word I need this grace that I don’t deserve I’ve Fallin’ Fallin’ I am Fallin’ Fallin’ I am Fallin’ Fallin’ Into the arms of mercy Fallin’ Fallin’ I am Fallin’ Fallin’ I am Fallin’ Fallin’ Into the arms of mercy There are things I’ve done I never should’ve done Things I’ve said I never should’ve said And I can’t forget The things I’ve done the things I’ve said The things I’ve done the things I’ve said

Agony is killing me Aimlessly wand’ ring soul Casualties they burden me Tragedy is the only game I know How can I how can I rewrite this life with joy redeeming joy how can I… Apathy is killing me Sanity takes its toll Gravity is moving me Rapidly to my old forgotten home… How can I how can I rewrite this life with joy redeeming joy with joy redeeming joy how can I Fantasies are pulling me Bitterly to the place I fear the most How can I how can I rewrite this life with joy redeeming joy with joy redeeming joy with joy redeeming joy how can I

Helianthus 03:25
I bloom with hope of something new A dream that I will hold on to The chance to grow above this bright golden sea The petals gossip in the wind They crave the hope I hold within The truth that keeps me warm as seasons pass That I will rise above this Earth and touch the sky I look to summer’s shining face To give me growth with rays of grace It brings the morning with its radiant light Soon the leaves will start to change And autumn’s sun will burn in vain The breath of fall brings word of winter’s wind Yet I will rise above this Earth and touch the sky I know that when the cold arrives It will not catch me by surprise The frost will cover me in blankets of white I won’t regret all I have done To live each day towards the sun The breeze will lift me to my promised home And I will rise above this Earth and touch the sky

Here To Stay 03:41
In a flurry the whirlwind blows Blind confusion begins to grow In the current I lose control Of where I am In the rainstorm I hear your voice Calling over the sodden noise In the gust of the breeze below Will you remain? Chorus 1: You’re here To stay You’re here When I call your name In the cries of a crowded night Falling into myself I hide In the blare of the busy street Will you hear me? You’re here To stay You’re here Through the wind and the rain You’re here To stay You’re here When I call your name In a glimmer you show your face Bright and beaming a strong embrace In the burn of a heated day Will you remain? You’re here To stay You’re here Through the tears of the day You’re here To stay You’re here When I call your name
