Blood From a Stone
(Christ/Wertman)

This is where it ends - sell out all your friends
Draw a line to see how far it bends
Now they know you lied - nothing left to hide
Never should have left you to decide

You see my reflection - you lost all your direction
You want blood from a stone - don’t hold your breath too long

Taken where you go - I'm the last to know
Stole the prize but nothing left to show
No more shades of grey - nothing left to say
Never gonna let you walk away

You see my reflection - you lost all your direction
You want blood from a stone
the time it takes to hide mistakes
You long for answer - you wasted all your chances
You want blood from a stone - don’t hold your breath too long

Ran your mouth so loud - arrogant and proud
No one’s gonna come to save you now...

One Alone
(Wertman/Christ)

I’ve been gifted with the brightest moment
Break upon the growing dark
No stranger to the grace that’s left among us
Defining who we are
No stranger than a life brought out from under sleep, like doubt

Focused like sunlight - sending out rays converging lines
drawing all shapes - may hope bring harmony
I’m one alone no more

Find ourselves above the darkness drawing
Find our strength in one desire
Withdraw my hand from all this fascination
With all but one design
To break myself upon you like a rising tide, washed out

Focused like sunlight - sending out rays converging lines
drawing all shapes - may hope bring harmony
I’m one alone no more

Can it stay this way? What we feel today?
Promise not to change and expect the same...

So Long
(Christ)

Don’t have too much to say
There aren’t words to tell you how
The words get in the way, so wrong...so long

The smile that makes me sleep
The sounds you never cared about
But evidently pleased for long, hold on...so long

Not what we want to see
Not what we want to say right now
Still silence makes me scream, so long...hold on

And its only here for a while
While we’re waiting all our lives
To be healed or ‘til we have to get it right

Will silence let me dream for long, hold on...so long...

Believe
(Christ)

I don’t want to spend my life
waiting ‘til I find
I’ve wasted all my time

If it’s more than what we’ll see
more than what we’ll be
then how could I believe

You don’t understand what’s all right
You don’t want an eye for an eye
It’s too complicated to prove so I’ll turn into you

won’t believe it - don’t believe it - won’t believe it’s true

I don’t want to set my eyes
searching for what’s right
and waiting for the lies
that I’d expect to find

If it' more than what we’ll see
then how could I believe

You can’t even say you’re not right
just throw up your hands to the sky
If I hesitated to prove then I’d turn into you

won’t believe it - don’t believe it - won’t believe it’s true...

Dreaming of Time
(Wertman)

Voice in the dark
an angel on a bad connection
Kindle the spark
did you get the flowers I ordered

Asks if its raining where I am
its easy to say the sun is shining
Be sure and call us when you land
yes it’s a miracle those things fly at all

I'm dreaming of time - far away no more obligations
I'm dreaming of time well spent

Back on a plane
twenty thousand feet and climbing
Blue turns to grey
same sounds of tortured engines

Why are the stewards strapping in
Tell me the turbulence is normal
Where is the exit aisle in here
Nobody reads escape instructions anyways

I'm dreaming of time - far away no more obligations
I'm dreaming of time well spent

I'm dreaming of time - far away no more obligations
I'm dreaming of time - broken plans neglected engagements
I'm dreaming of time - far away from dark situations
I'm dreaming of time well spent

Every Day
(Christ)

Nobody told me
what you had to show me
Now that you know me
say that you’ll stay
I know I won’t run away

Lives now in union
no lies or confusion
It’s not an illusion
one for all time
one for the first time tonight

I was alone
felt like forever on my own
Now on and on
I know you’ll always be along with me
All night and when we wake
all our lives every hour
every day

Now that I’ve told you
“to have and to hold you”
Time can move on to carry away
the moment we’re sharing today

I won’t take for granted
the gift I’ve been handed
More than I imagined or believed
what love might turn out to be

No words to say
sometimes the words get in the way
As for today
I know you’ll always be along with me
All night and when we wake
all our lives every hour
every day...

Still Deceived
(Christ/Wertman)

Alone and empty feeling lost just for a while
The waking memory fading now...slide

The reasons for her strange fixations crossed her mind
But not too long remembering how...

better to try and hide or just deny
ghosts she could never leave behind

Took my cross, once you left me here anticipating
Now all the walls seem to fall in on me
Recount the loss, how you’ve taken everything and left me
Still deceived, still deceived

The nurses never want to tell him what went wrong
The medications make her smile

happy to sign on the line and let her go
Easier said than done they know

Took my cross, how you left me here anticipating
Now all the walls seem to fall in on me
Recount the loss, how you’ve taken everything and left me
Still deceived, still deceived...

Katherine
(Christ)

Another kiss before you leave tonight
and you’ll be gone before the sun
Comes to blind my world with all its light
all my shadows forced to run

Like a candle whisper softly glow
as if the moon shines through the clouds
Only time will tell what we may know
only time will show me how

Tell me what it takes to make you smile for me
When are you gonna see all that we could do

If I’d had the nerve I’d show a side to me
So you can hide in me,
if you can try for me,
Katherine

Like a child you glow with sky blue eyes
but in the eyes there hides a tear
Through a crystal wall I see your mind
I feel your pain from all those years

Time will only mend the wounds you let it heal
And you’re holding on the feel the chill that’s in the rain

If you’d come to me I’ll take the pain you feel
take you away for real,
take you away to heal,
Katherine...

Letters In Boxes
(Wertman/Christ)

What words did she say?
How could I stand there,
wait for an answer

Lost and gone away
Change what we have to,
don’t wait forever

Not her voice, down the hall
Not her fault, not exactly at all

When it’s done, it’s gone away

Hold it all together,
not the same anymore
Hold it all forever,
keep me sane, keep me sure

Pictures in a frame,
letters in boxes,
now I remember

Numbers follow names,
on torn faded parchments,
burning to embers

It’s not fair, it’s not right
I don’t care, I won’t worry tonight

When it’s done, it’s gone away

Hold it all together,
not the same anymore
Hold it all forever,
keep me sane, keep me sure

Can’t you tell me that I’m wasting my time
Make me just forget the life that was mine

Now it seems
Things that might cost me
dreams that it lost me
don’t come across me

It’s not fair, it’s not right
I don’t care, I won’t worry tonight

When it’s done, it’s gone away

Hold it all together,
not the same anymore
Hold it all forever,
keep me sane, keep me sure...

Been the Wiser
(Wertman)

I was walking down the down the street
down the street the other day
Thinking how I’ve got you
ooh and how I got it made

Then I realized that
you might not feel quite the same
I was torn between the
old and the new, start thinking

I was once a great romancer
in the pages of my youth

But if I had been the wiser, yeah
I would have saved myself for you

So I met up on the street
with some old and tired man
I started talking I said
ooh could you lend me a hand

I’ve been thinking lately
‘bout how reckless I had been
So he told me something
that I know I won’t forget

He said he knew a great romancer
was quite amazing in his youth

But then one day he met this lady and then
it sounded just like me and you

Ooh baby can’t you see
I’ve told so many lies
But now I finally see
that you’re the only one for me

I was once a great romancer
well, that might not be true

But now that I have been the wiser, yeah
I think I’ll stay right here with you...

Get Over
(Christ)

I don’t hesitate
never contemplate if I’m right

And it stays the same
nothing ever change in my mind

You made me weak but now I’m strong
Might find the strength to carry on
Carry me over

I don’t want to fight
I don’t have the right - dislocated

You can’t recognize
and I can’t sympathize with what you’re saying

A moment left to steal
leaves more time to reveal - you were lying

Behind your eyes a fire burned
All you consumed you never learn

Now flames will die and pages turn
And we will get over

And I know you thought I’d be there
for the rest of your life
But you confused and then abused the trust
that I sacrificed

Believe there’ll be no second chance
because I don’t want to waste
no more time - no more time

You made me weak but now I’m strong
Might find the strength to carry on

The pages turn the fires die
Everyone gets on with their lives

Now that my world has crashed and burned
Tell me what’s left for me to learn
Before I’ll get over

I don’t want to fight
I don’t have the right
