3.
Finally Here 02:57
Finally Here Miles and miles and miles of highway Trials and trials have been my path Pressing on with no direction Through the fire, the smoke and ash Tears, my tears have rained with sorrow Cursed each day with every breath Now here I stand with new tomorrows I've been lost but found at last And the heavens say "yeah!" And the preacher says "amen!" And the angels say "where, Where the hell have you been?" With arms wide open we'll all be there Welcome home you're finally here Piece by piece I started over Step by step I made my way All you said was just keep going Don't give up, it's not too late And the heavens say "yeah!" And the preacher says "amen!" And the angels say "where, Where the hell have you been?" With arms wide open we'll all be there Welcome home you're finally here I was broken, well, I've been saved Words unspoken made me whole amazing grace Now here I am my song I'm singing Raise my voice for all to hear Your sweet, sweet love my sweet redemption I can hear you loud and clear And the heavens say "yeah!" And the preacher says "amen!" And the angels say "where, Where the hell have you been?" And the heavens say "yeah!" And the preacher says "amen!" And the angels say "where, Where the hell have you been?" With arms wide open we'll all be there Welcome home you're finally here

Already Over 03:49
Already Over Sign your name Isn't this what you want? Sign your name Isn't this what you wanted? It's too late Don't bother hiding they're already asking Take me to your wreckage, Is this all you've built? Resist, repeat that you think that you fear, It's already over and I fear, It was up to me It's alright But maybe you should have stayed If it's last call Don't bother no one, They know where you're goin' 'Cause I fear, It's already over and I fear, It was up to me and I fear, It's already over and I fear, It was up to me

Assalaam Alaykum All I want, walking your streets Is to see your wounded whole Make your lovelies smile again I want to buy it, I called your fake Make peace with him who wronged me, Who wronged me Assalaam Alaykum Step by step, through the shadows Trust is faith your word is whole Wait for me, change is coming I want to buy it, I called your fake Make peace with him who wronged me, Who wronged me Assalaam Alaykum I'll find you, I'll find you in the dark again You in the darkness, I'll find you in the dark again We both are far from home We're both still so alone

Levon (or the bees) Levon, can you beat that drum Tap your toes, shake your thumbs in three While jumping from your train Whistle screamin’ steam refrains Well I heard your breath was losing air Life's been buzzing out your hair The bees, buzzing in your beard That wiry, sweet gray web of wisdom is Fear undone, said the battle's won And you won it proud, it almost cost your life for Never a word exchanged, sounding out in time But I swear your secret's safe between your eyes and mine Shark's teeth tare the ocean sky, ever-changing swells go by Thousands stiff dead in the sand, forever drowning in dry land But I now believe it may not last, but drink it all half-empty glasses Broken shards of happy tears, better to than never have Fear reruns, said the battle's won And you won it proud, it cost your life again for Never a word exchanged, sounding out in time But I swear your secret's safe between your eyes and mine, mine Between your eyes and mine, between your arms and mine Between your hands and mine, between yours and mine Yours and mine

Love Has 04:55
Love Has My love has gone away And she won't ever be back, no way I won't let her back in my heart, again She done wrong me from the start Ain't it true, and so now I know about love If she doesn't want my love, oh no Well then she doesn't get my love, oh no She just hits me so low, so that I cannot go on in love All my love has gone away And it won't ever be back, no way, no I won't let her back in my heart, no no no She done wrong me, wrong me, wrong me from the start And you'd think now I know about her love If she doesn't want my love, oh no Well then she doesn't get my love, oh no It's just woe after woe really I should have known 'bout her love You better not say ya need it You better not say you want more and You, coulda done right to feed it You shoulda done more for what you knew of love Love has, love has, love has gone Love has won, what do you fight it for? Oh love has won
8.
Attention 04:40
Attention Hi, may I get some of your attention? Can I please get some of your attention? There is something I need from you right now Yeah I lost it long ago Do you have somewhere to go? 'Cause I'll tell you what God, can I get some of your attention? Can you, can't you, won't you hear me? Open up, shout it out, what's the difference? Yeah I lost it long ago Do you have somewhere to go? 'Cause I'll tell you what Can you? Yeah I lost it long ago Don't you have somewhere to go? 'Cause I'll tell you what (I lost it long ago) I'll tell you what (do you have somewhere to go?) I'll tell you what (you lost it long ago) I'll tell you what

Rollin' Away 03:31
Rollin’ Away Gotta think you understand, that I wanna be your man Yeah I want your hand, baby Gotta a feelin' that shit gets real, when you, ya gonna see me deal Mmm, gonna see me deal, sugar I wake up in the morning on a bus back from here to LA Didn't know how I see you 'til I saw myself roll away And I feel in the morning and I feel in the day, feel in the day And I feel in the evening, said I, feel you all the way All the way, all the way I wake up in the morning on a bus back from here to LA Didn't know how I see you 'til I saw myself roll away Now I found what I wanted, it's you, I wanna roll your way
10.
In The Raw 03:09
In the Raw In the raw, in the rain I feel so sorry, I don't know your name Come in closer, feel my name And I know you’re here, Now I know that same voice In the sea, in the waves In the sand, and I'm crawling again For the love of the flame Then I feel so sorry, I know your name Through the storm or the pain Wind so wild, but the eye is tame Will you thrash, will you learn Will you see your hopes As they watch you burn See the shore, you're the rain Wonder what they called your name And you tear from the flame Of your broken soul let it feel again Oh your broken soul Let it feel again Let it feel again Let it
11.
Please, If I fall Lost inside the invisible rip tide Crashing this vessel I'm in Can't sink down And won't accept that I'm drowning I've got to make it out alive Oh, well I know that I can do it But do I push myself through it? These waves are so heavy on my mind Am I just dyin to survive? Catch me, catch me, please if I fall Catch me, catch me, please if I fall Lift me, lift me, high, high My hands are still shaking (no I have not gone yet) But my heart is still beating (and I'm still here) For you, for you, for you Catch me, catch me, please if I fall Catch me, catch me, please if I fall Lift me, lift me, high, high
