Narrow Road

Hope walks a narrow road
But she's always walking
In your direction.
Your heart is an empty tomb
It could be a bright lit room
If only you'd let Love
Break down your defenses.

We sailed the seven seas
In search for meaning
We found nothing more
Than beauty so fleeting.
Each time you walk alone
Through all the madness
And when you forget your home
He shares your sadness.

When you are breaking down
He's broken with you
When you cry out for love
He's reaching for you
When the arrows fly
He's fighting for you
When you turn away
He's dying for you.

Love walks a narrow road
But He's always walking
In your direction.
Would you turn around?

Frozen Fighter

Everything is complete when I look into your eyes
Which is why I'm incomplete most of the time
I don't know what to think
I don't know what to say
and unless I find some meaning soon
I'm afraid I'll lose my way

Speeding down this narrow road
closing on a stone wall
Praying just to see your face
instead I start to fall
I won't know what to think
I won't know what to do
when once again I have the chance
to fall in love with you

No one here is bullet proof
though some like to pretend
Most of us live just to breathe
these circles never end
I don't know what to think
I don't know what to feel
And unless I find my love again
I'm afraid I'll never heal

Have you lost your way my friend
are you going blind?
Have you lost your way again
such a common crime...

Safe and Sound

There is nothing more to talk about
There is nothing more to say
except than when you took my hand
I felt happiness
I searched far and wide
I searched this whole world
and never did I find
anything worthwhile
..and then I found you

No more, my dear
will I run from your embrace
'cause I wandered, and I got lost
I got lost in this place
Then I saw just how much I needed you
Yeah, now I see exactly what you mean to me

No matter how many demons try
to pull love apart
No matter how many people try
to shove us on the ground
We won't drown
We won't drown
We won't let them pull us down
We will press on safe and sound

Rest, my friend
there is no need to rush
we have time, we'll be fine
because love is enough
no matter what, no matter how far
no matter what the cost
I will fight, I will die
just to make you mine

No matter how many demons try
to pull love apart
No matter how many people try
to shove us down
We won't drown
We won't drown
We won't let them pull us down
We will press on safe and sound

And if my pride keeps me from
telling you how I love you
please just remember that you're
the best friend I could have asked for
so shine on.

Better Days

Did you watch the sunset last night
Did you help a stranger into the light
Did you watch a ship sail out of sight
Did you help yourself get into a fight?
I did...

A star-shaped rock told me you loved me
A dying rose helped her set you free
You'll never learn from your mistakes
And I won't burn under the choices you make
Anymore...

Can you hear the sirens ringing out
Can you hear the voices crying loud
Can you feel the thunder rush through your veins
Can you feel the warmth of love despite the rain?
I can't...

A star-shaped rock told me you loved me
A dying rose helped her set you free
You'll never learn from your mistakes
And I won't burn under the choices you make
Anymore...

Sometime we'll find
Love that stays kind
I hope it will change your mind

One day we'll say
Look how love reigns
When we choose to believe

Don't be afraid to
become brand new
Be the change we're all searching for
