Still Water
05:42

Still water runs deep
deeper than what’s inside me
I call from the depths of my soul,
Hoping that I can let go
This struggle I’ve carried through life
And the sins of an old time
Owned by a love hurt in past lives
I’ll do better next time
I’ll keep my cool and my calm
Unwavering I’m wandering
Headlong I’ll walk through
The rain storm
Let it come
For the rain brings thunder
and thunder means lighting
And lightning is what we’re made of
And lord knows I need some
Lord knows I need one
Lord knows you need some
Somewhere we are one
Still water runs deep
And Deeper in you I can see
I’m called to the depths of your soul
Knowing I’ll never let go
I’ll keep my cool and my calm
Unwavering I’m wandering
Headlong We’ll walk through
The rain storm
Let it come
For the rain brings thunder
and thunder means lighting
And lightning is what we’re made of
And lord knows you need some
Lord knows we need some
Lord knows you need one
Somewhere we are one
Somewhere we are one
Somewhere we are one
Somewhere we are one
Still water runs deep
Deeper than what’s behind me
I call from the depths of my soul
Knowing I’ll never let go

Eli the Barrow Boy
03:56

Eli, the barrow boy
Of the old town
Sells coal and marigolds
And he cries out
All down the day
Below the tamaracks
He is crying:
"Corn cobs and candle wax for the buying!"
All down the day
"Would I could afford to buy my love a fine robe
Made of gold and silk Arabian thread!
But she is dead and gone and lying in a pine grove
And I must push my barrow all the day
And I must push my barrow all the day"
Eli, the barrow boy
When they found him
Dressed all in corduroy
He had drowned in
The river down the way
They laid his body down in a church yard
But still when the moon is out
With his push cart
He calls down the day
"Would I could afford to buy my love a fine gown
Made of gold and silk Arabian thread!
But I am dead and gone and lying in a church ground
And still I push my barrow all the day
Still I push my barrow all the day"

Unleashed

Let’s take a drive out to the ocean
Let’s take a walk into the sea
Let’s take a razor to the underside of everything we’ve ever known and watch it bleed
Let’s find a dream between the stars babe
Let’s fall asleep beneath the waves
Let’s float above the wretched underside of everything we’ve ever known and fly away
Destruction’s keeper it’s locked inside your soul
With my redeemer of words
Fires burning deeper will call your fury home
Unleashed, your heart knows love is OWN’d
Let’s find ourselves up on a mountain
Or out across the desert plains
And let the wolf rip out the underside of everything you’ve ever known to bring you pain
Destruction’s keeper it’s locked inside your soul
With my destroyer of worlds
That fire burns deeper and calls your fury home
Unleashed, your heart knows love is OWN’d
A terror tried to cross the ocean
It tried to live within a lie
We let it sink below the underside of everything that ever was and watched it die
Salvation’s seeker out through this world you’ll roam
Consumed by what may never be
But I’m your future, you’ll see how you can grow
Beyond what’s left by ruined kings
We’ll sail across a secret ocean
And Dive into the secrets that it keeps
We’ll venture out beyond the underside of everything that ever was and be released
Let’s find a dream between the stars babe
Let’s fall asleep beneath the waves
Let’s float above the wretched underside of everything we’ve ever known and fly away.....

Shadow
08:10

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of you
I find myself torn down broken battered and blue
Wish there were something I could do to get to where I once was
Now there were times when I was so alone
But none of them ever felt quite this cold
As I walk through the valley of the shadow alone
So alone
I used to run wild, Roamin’ free
Nobody there to wonder worry hate or care for me
It was there I made a home in lonely
Moon Goddess well you steal my faith
Build me a path to your beauty and a bridge to grace
I’ll burn it down to embers baby
And let ruin take my place
Let it take my place
Let ruin take my place
Did you find Christ lying in the water while all I found was the devil in your soul
I felt the sting burn and hit me hard
As you closed your eyes and let me go
Imperfect as I ever was
Just a wolf without a moon
Calling to you
Lookin for some truth
Just looking for the truth
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of you
I find myself wishin I could be something new
Like a better man who ain’t all lost in once was
Without those memories so vivid and clear
And all the lost tragedies that I hold dear
Maybe then I’ll find a way to find my way to wisdom
And let loose of all my fears
Let loose my fears
Let loose of all my fears
Did you find Christ lying in the water? All I found was the devil in your soul
I felt the sting burn and hit me hard
As you closed your eyes and let me go
Imperfect as I ever was
Just a wolf without a moon
Moving through you
Lookin for some truth
Just looking for some truth
Just looking for some truth
Just looking for the truth
I used to run wild, Roamin’ free
Nobody there to wonder worry hate or care for me
It was there I made a home in lonely
Moon Goddess well you still my faith
Build me a path to your beauty and a bridge to grace
I’ll burn you down to embers baby
And let ruin take my place
Let it take my place
Let ruin take my place
Imperfect as I ever was
Just a wolf without a moon
Calling to you
Just lookin for some truth
Just looking for the truth
Just looking for the truth
Just looking for the truth
There’s evil in your bloodline
Makes you wicked for a lifetime
It’s playing tricks on my mind
As you’re making love to me
There’s evil in your bloodline
Makes you wicked for a lifetime
It’s playing tricks on my mind
As you’re making love to me
There’s evil in your bloodline
There’s evil in your bloodline
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of you
I find myself torn down broken battered and blue
Wish there were something I could do to get to where I once was
There were times when I was so alone
But none of them ever felt quite this cold
As I walk through the valley of the shadow alone
So alone
And in my darkness, you’re merely a ghost
Despite your brilliance, a glimmer at most
And in my nightmares you ruled all the land
Oh my Destroyer of Worlds
Please let me let go of your long fingered hands
