Lyrics

Micah Walk
but a breath
a man sits home in the comfort by the fire
quietly awaiting a revolution
but let my scream be an echo in a room
and not fainter louder it grows

only you this time can take all i have to give
when the door shuts i'll open another and i'll let your light come in

i know i'm supposed to give it up to you
to worry is to not have faith
but i said if i had the wings of a dove i'd fly
far far away from the crazy eye of the storm

only you this time can take all i have to give
but a breath is the life we're living
who knows when it will ever end?

dreaming little dreams is no solution
walking, talking they set me free
taking everything like an institution
is handing it out like it's all for free

wish it away
an unbreakable arm fell screaming out for help
and invited all who cared to come and follow in her steps
i fell too

he drove with just one eye open the other tightly closed
but that's all they saw and he soon became a wreckless soul
in there eyes

if you want to cry on me you can
i'll lay down for you my friend
for you to dream yourself to sleep again
or wish it away

trying to stand on top of things i wound up down
less than something you'd enjoy to be around
but i love you


breathless
i felt you shiver but i felt no cold
how could this life leave us so alone?
i stand here waiting under the sky
i wonder if i should ask why

tell her i try but i fail
and i'm too weak
too weak to leave you breathless here

i stand arms outstretched under the rain
i wonder when life like this became
come away with me i said to the sun
come away with on these cold, cold dark months


nowhere fast
oh you fell off your horse wondering how to get on
oh but you've got no one and nothing to step up on

love they say is all you need but i'm wondering
if they know the kind that's deep inside of me

hold on it seems we're going nowhere fast
still i know i'm better off staying here where i'm at

oh you found what you thought you were looking for
only to find out it's not at all


thinking of you
she said wait for me and i will come running out
with arms wide open when time allows
all her words were so sweet in my ear
but i knew sour times would be near

maybe it was me see the way i think
it doesn't always meet everyone's needs
but i wish we'd all just sit back
for a while

oh maybe it'll change
but life's just teasing us and it still remains
all too good to be true
so i'm just sitting here thinking of you


take me away
hey my friend i'll take you on a ride you won't forget this time
and one that you will sure never regret
you don't have to say a word, i'll show you which way to turn
to the right, right into the light (find out)

believe in me i believe in you if you tell me you know what's true
believe there's more than what you see
all that is surrounding believe me it puts a smile on my face
I’m so happy

take me away I find my peace today
don't run away from something you can't see

believe in me I believe in you if you tell me you know what's true
believe there's more than what you see
greener than the greenest grass and bluer than the blue sky on a warm -
the warmest summer day


a better sacrifice
the less you need the less you will find
creeping up your back inside out
on it too much weight

then you say where did it all go?
where did all my color go?
it turned black and now it's all i see
but you've got it made easy
i say easy doesn't live here anymore

I’m free
I’m alive
I’m carrying a better sacrifice

you're running around making good sounds
but we're fools to hear the lies
hoping to God on high
is like clinging onto life
clinging onto life while dying

but you let it linger, let it stick around
watch out you'll get burned
the bigger picture
a forever weekend after an eighty year long week


wedding song
don't you know just how easy it was
for me to fall head over heals
in love with you

time - it has nothing on us
it may fly by but we will pass it up


wounds mend slowly
i was walking in the night
wondering if my friends had all gone home or not
and if they're here could they see me
walking underneath this blanket of night?

wounds mend slowly in the night
wounds mend slowly underneath this lonely sky

i was climbing into bed
wondering what will i do when i raise my head
put em up we'll find a way, let's find a way


day after day
i tell myself day after day
something's got to change
i've been here for a while

am i diving way too deep
into the depth of things
no way, no way

who's to say you're not just hanging on by a thread like everyone else
like there's something to shine on here
you're taking everything for what it's worth but what's it worth to you
to live and die with nothing in between?

we go about saying we'll just ask for forgiveness
before there's even anything to forgive
but just once then go out of here
the way you came so i can call if i need you again

save your pouting for another day and say in God i put all of these things
no one wants your salty tears
pouting's not what you've got that makes one see and wonder, is what's in him in me?
we all fall down


Awake
awake
some say the back roads are the best way to go
but traveling lightly you must have to know
some say there's nothing time can't take away
it's easy to forget but i don't want to wait

please take back what you said about me
my heart is a fragile thing i don't want to break
and i rethink my thoughts on things, life with you was a dream
but now I’m awake

some say I’m lonely because of a dream
experience nothing, dream up everything
some say that life is too short for nothing
but nothing's all i have and all i have to lose


letting go
would you tell me if i stand a chance
of becoming the clay in your hands?
would you show me if there was a way of letting go?

would you show me the love of a girl
with no bounderies? you'e not of this world
would you show me if there was a way of letting go?

would you still put up a fight
if you said yes and turned out to be right?
would you show me a way of letting go?

would you kiss me like in my daydreams
and know there's nowhere else that i'd rather be?
would you show me if there was a way of letting go?

would you tell me there's not much to say
if there was nothing to stand in your way?
would you show me if there was a way of letting go?


heaven
i'm finding your whisper echoes for days that turn to years
i'm searching for some silence here

shining a different light on you, God must me
but we all know the darkness won't leave

shame filled your mind
you thought you'd never find heaven

you're one step closer to the edge of the outside
before long wrong turns to right

shame filled your mind
you thought you'd never find heaven
but faith remained alive
you knew someday you'd find heaven


freely falling
home is where i want to be tonight
with you alright and in my arms all tied
who decides the way we go and why?

angels sing in perfect harmony
and you and me are freely falling

there you stood, the better part of now
bright as the sun, you stood right out of the crowd

you deserve a better song than this
