Within My View 03:18
lyrics
buy track
There are so many ways that I can see, this won’t shatter with age I think about the life I’ll lead, the ink that I’ll leave on my page And though the leaves mark years that follow me, I’ve never felt so far from the past Retain the life I can’t let go, release the one that time lows past Encase these dreams. Save them up for me… To claim or undo, but leave within my view. Beyond the shakes that stir down to my bones, I sense a calming in the fog I grow with every breath I take. I age with every mile I walk. What will my sons or daughters grow to see? What are the songs they will sing? I pray their lives be full of love. I pray about everything. In case I dream, save it up for me… Maybe one day I’ll come through, and dream within my view. In case I dream, save it up for me… To claim or undo, but leave within my view. Leave within my view.

With all the evidence I have… I’ll make you understand, leave your worries in my hands And with the minerals I’ve grabbed I’ll keep us better off than a castle in the sand Relief… Is still in me Under this circumstance I can Relieve what’s in my head, leave your worries in our bed If every gift that I received Were cast out to the sea Would I grow older or just leave? Our worries so heavy Are worries so heavy? With all the evidence I have… I’ll make you understand, leave your worries in my hands Relief… Is still in me Relief… Is still in me Relief… Is still in me

You must have been lying to me and my ghost Don't cycle through the times that you didn't understand Unless your fairy-tales have hope Oh underneath the eve shade I'll wander through this faze Pretend that I can't see it Throw water on my face And even though And at what cost You gotta find your peace and carry on You've got years to live in fear of what seems too much to bear But if you don't dip your toe in that pool You've got no reason to be scared And even though And at what cost You gotta find your peace and carry on I've lived inside a seashell I hid from all the eyes I filled my lungs with all that I could hold To see if I could die And even though And at what cost You gotta find your peace and carry on And even though And at what cost You gotta find your peace and carry on You gotta find your peace and carry on You gotta find your peace and carry on You gotta find your peace and carry on

The Unknown 03:46
lyrics

I stumble through lonely days, Beneath the paths I’ll never take I’ll follow through open fields We needed time for this to heal We needed time for this to heal Heal Oh, the unknown, oh I traveled across the land, Searching for ways to love again I mumble so quiet and low When I was stale, how did you grow? When I was stale, how did you grow? Grow Oh, the unknown, oh I stumbled through lonely days, Unlocking paths I’ll finally take The river’s I’ll cross and see, Will guide the path that’s meant for me Will guide the path that’s meant for me

I’ve got it too Bigger than the way I am Stuck here with you Stuck here with you I’ve got nothing but clothes To cover me and keep me So I’ll be alone I’ll be alone And I got
