you never once cried
not on the outside
i'm not a soldier I'm sick of fighting myself
looking much older not quite the picture of health
i never once cried, not on the outside
no use for white flags, I've not the strength left to wave
don't like the answers, won't ask the questions they bring
there's no advantage in fighting to live til Spring
you never once cried, not on the outside
that is the essence of pain
i'm not a soldier
looking much older
i never once cried
not on the outside
please don't make me go on
this is the essence of pain

you won't find your place
searching with a guilty look
so misplaced is gathered rage
an anger that's misunderstood
sadness goes around
stays until it's been replaced
i hold hope, you've let yours slide
it's easy, here is your plan
stay awake
stay awake
stay awake my precious child
some may act their age
some may turn the other page
some may crack another's book
some will earn another look
i know where you want to hide
just reach out
help is at hand
i hold hope, you let yours slide
it's easy here is your plan
stay awake
stay awake
stay awake my precious child

Eternity Awaits Us
03:59
|

we will get beyond, beyond these trying times
together
we will live beyond, beyond these lowly lives
forever
eternity awaits
eternity awaits us
and if your soul's defined by a heart that's kind
you won't have to wait
and if your soul's been kind when it comes your time
you won't have to wait
and if i'm not on time or my soul's declined
i might have to wait
save me a place
we will live beyond, beyond these lowly lives
forever
and if i'm twice denied and reborn to life
i'll limit my mistakes
and if my soul's refined with a heart that's kind
i will end my wait
save me a place
i won't be lost
i won't be long
eternity awaits us

Plainer to See
04:14
|

why shouldn't i fear what has been taken from me?
why shouldn't i fear the world now?
it's plainer to see
so that's my heart's that broken
that's just the truth i'm choking down
shouldn't i fear what has been taken from me?
shouldn't i fear the world now?
it's plainer to see
no one knows what goes through my mind
and knowing this is fine
no one
shouldn't i fear what has been taken from me?
shouldn't i fear the world now?
it's plainer to see
shouldn't i fear what has been taken from me?
slowly i'll grow somehow

too soon, too soon
it's too soon
i try to pick up my slack, did i cover my tracks?
guess it was a setback, just what is holding me back?
i was so tempted to see, that was not really me
forgiveness unlike the deed does not come quite so easy
just what is holding me back?
i've scratched and i've peeled at scars
could not recover from harm
i should never do that
flesh feels much better intact
it's too soon to lose it all
once i wished on a star
that was me just living in a fantasy
i try to pick up my slack, did i cover my tracks?
guess it was a setback, just what is holding me back?
it's too soon to lose it all

I've waited hours for this,
I've made myself so sick.
I wish I'd stayed asleep today,
I never thought this day would end.
I never thought tonight could ever be
This close to me
Just try to see in the dark,
Just try to make it work,
To feel the fear before you're here.
I make the shapes come much too close,
I pull my eyes out,
Hold my breath,
And wait until I shake
But if I had your faith,
Then I could make it safe and clean.
If only I was sure,
That my head on the door was a dream.
I've waited hours for this,
I've made myself so sick,
I wish I'd stayed asleep today.
I never thought this day would end,
I never thought tonight could ever be
This close to me
But if I had your face,
I could make it safe and clean.
If only I was sure,
That my head on the door,
Was a dream.

just show who you are, you get further each day
just show who you are
i think i know who you are, gets sadder each day
just show who you are
keeping a straight face
walking a brisk pace
smiling in vain again
don't want to see your friends
show who you are
just show who you are, gets colder each day
just show who you are
keeping a brave face
staying in safe places
hiding away again
don't want to see your friends

One Night's Luck
04:27
|

just cried the tears have dried themselves
won't place the blame on someone else
oh well i never seem to know
the ways to make these feelings go
tore down the lies too tall to tell
won't play that game with your good health
oh well i never, never seem to know
the worlds that help these lives to glow
you know what we started from
just one night's luck
that was enough to set us up
you know what we started from
just one light touch
that set us off
let's hide the years can age themselves
don't change the same suits us so well
oh well one never seems to know
the time when time must let us go
you know what we started from
just one night's luck

I Choose to Ignore This
04:08
|
|||
i choose to ignore this
faster than the wind the truth it sets right in
racing from the bone-deep chills they're coming quick
passing by a friend who's grin is as wide as a fence
i can feel the bone-deep chills that never end
yes, i see it i know it
i choose to ignore this
faster than the wind the truth it blew right in
can you feel the bone-deep chills that came too quick?
i choose to ignore this
as long as i can
yes, i see it
yes, i know it
yet
i choose to ignore this
i see it, i know it
i choose to ignore this
hit snooze sleep through this
as long as i can

in your deepest peace, when you're fast asleep
i'll join you for a walk through the fields
your subconscious plea isn't lost on me
i'll join you for a walk through the fields
i've interrupted your dream
guess that's all for now
i'll fade into the distance
guess that's all for now
i'll fade into the distance
you offered no resistance
in your deepest peace, when you're fast asleep
i'll join you for a walk through the fields
i've interrupted your dream
guess that's all for now
you offered no resistance
i'll fade into the distance

which ornament is your favorite?
tell me which one
it's just fun to pick out which one
which ornament is your favorite?
just be singing into this song
just be singing into the light
just be singing
which ornament is your favorite?
and celebrate new lights
oh happy Christmas
it's nice to hear
it's our Thanksgiving
which ornament is your favorite?
it's just not the ones who say
"goodbye to you"
