I'm seeing light from the other side of morning Reflected light from the other side of day I'm seeing light from the other side of morning I'm seeing light, my mind is blown away …My mind is blown away -- away I'll figure it out as I make my way I watch the world from the other side of owning The things I've held, I've let them go away I watch the world from the other side of owning I watch the world, desires have slipped away …Desires have slipped away -- away I'll figure it out as I make my way I'm on a journey, I've got my faith I don't have to worry about my fate The planets align as the will dictates I'm writing it out as I make my way I walk through time with a different understanding Embracing what I see along the way I walk though time with a different understanding I'll figure it out, as I make my way ...as I make my way -- my way I'll figure it out as I make my way I'm on a journey, I've got my faith I don't have to worry about my fate The planets align as the will dictates I'm writing it out as I make my way... (As I make my way) As I make my way (As I make my way) As I make my way (As I make my way) As I make my way (As I make my way)

I see the riches that you will amass And fill your desires, your wealth is vast The sun's ascending in your sphere The world is yours My vision's clear -- my vision's clear I see the future written in the sands And destiny is in the lines on your hands I'll tell you everything that you want to know First cross my palm with just a little bit of gold I see the kingdom that you will build and people will heed your every will I see the lands that you will rule Your power's great -- my vision's true My vision's true I see the future written in the sands And destiny is in the lines on your hands I'll tell you everything that you want to know First cross my palm with just a little bit of gold -- a little bit of gold -- a little bit of... I see the victories you'll score And all the glory that will be yours And all your wishes will come true 'Cause fate is cruel And beautiful -- so beautiful So beautiful -- So beautiful I see the future written in the sands And destiny is in the lines on your hands I'll tell you everything that you want to know First cross my palm with just a little bit of gold -- a little bit of gold -- a little bit of gold -- a little bit of gold -- a little bit of gold

Rescue 03:12
I drifted out as far as I could be Found myself in the middle of the sea I wondered how I would get back to me My home was out of sight, I couldn't reach Did you even know -- could you even see? Did you even know -- that you rescued me? Surrounded by the doubts I could not shake Drowning in mistakes that I had made But then you happened to go by my way You pulled me out and back to shore again Did you even know -- could you even see? Did you even know -- that you rescued me? Shaken faith and disconnected from this life You never left my side Putting distance between others and the pain You never walked away Did you even know -- could you even see? Did you even know -- that you rescued me? Did you even know -- could you even see? Did you even know -- did you even know -- that you rescued me?

Hope To Be 03:35
You know I've never heard you say a word about yourself Always thinking, always worried about someone else Every cut and every blow gets tucked away But now it's time for everyone to hear your name Heading for the western sky You're gonna soar you're gonna conquer life You just wait and see I'm pulling for you from below You're gonna make it big I swear I know Cause you're better than I'll ever hope to be Than I'll ever hope to be Than I'll ever hope to be Than I'll ever hope to be A little disappointment never finished anyone A little bump along the way, there's no real damage done A little time can change a lot, I know your day has come You're creating your own path, and the past will be undone Heading for the western sky You're gonna soar you're gonna conquer life You just wait and see I'm pulling for you from below You're gonna make it there I swear I know Cause you're better than I'll ever hope to be Than I'll ever hope to be Than I'll ever hope to be You're better than I'll ever hope to be You're better than I'll ever hope to be Than I'll ever hope to be

Have you been crying out for help And hearing your echo, nothing else? Are you being told to wait But you can't control that pain? Have you just forgotten all your friends who Are always asking after you? Remember the people who adore you They're here for you -- don't you be lonely See the view from above Take a step back It's not that bad It's not that tough See the view from beyond When everything's gone You'll find you're strong You'll find you're tough Are you blinded by what you feel? Do the colors not seem real? Have you just forgotten all the things That used to make you want to sing? Maybe you'll heal if you recall The words of a girl who told us all "Think of the beauty still left around you," -- it surrounds you -- "and be happy." See the view from above Take a step back It's not that bad It's not that tough See the view from beyond When everything's gone You'll find you're strong You'll find you're tough Come around now, come around now, Come around -- it's not that bad Come around now, come around now Come on down -- take a step back Take a step back, take a step back.

Great Escape 04:29
I'm arrested by your gaze Can't let the picture slip away Let's build a castle, leave this behind Let's protect ourselves from time Spirits whispering their thoughts Sheltered from the chill beyond It feels like winter's on its way Can we make our great escape? Let the hours pass us by We'll get away Cause you're the thing that makes me high ...so high Drops are falling, crashing loud We're spinning stories out of clouds I see my shadow disappear Every time you pull me near It seems like autumn's giving way Can we make our great escape? Let the hours pass us by We'll get away Cause I just want to feel alive Our great escape And you're the thing that makes me high -- ...so high (solo) Escape -- Let the hours pass us by We'll get away Cause I just want to feel alive Our great escape And you’re the thing that makes me high -- ...so high.

Kneeling 03:22
I take my place among the gathered masses Drifting round the center of the universe As far as I can see I float in the direction Of the wind and of my will I drink from the spring that's near And everything's so clear Now I can't explain What I'm going through But it's gonna bring me back to Distant days, another time When nothing really mattered, now I find -- I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright (I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright) I find myself among the lines of people gazing at the wall that's standing tall after all these years And then I place my wishes into spaces where they grow And yes I know they're being heard I do not say a word And I can't explain What I'm going through But it's gonna bring me back to Distant days, another time When nothing really mattered, now I find -- I'm kneeling to the earth and I’m alright... The gates are open wide The heavens they have sighed At the sight of all this pain But we can try again And I can't explain What I'm going through But it's gonna bring me back to Distant days, another time When nothing really mattered, now I find -- I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright... I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright... I'm kneeling to the earth and I'm alright.

They teach you -- but you people won't talk Beseech you -- but the fire won't stop I know through the anger it's hard to see But you know -- you all look the same to me There is blood in the sky And a fever burns the insides of our minds But I know we'll get by Cause we are breathing -- We are breathing They guide you -- but the valley is long Unite you -- but resistance is strong The leaders and the visionaries flee And still -- you all look the same to me There is blood in the sky And a fever burns the insides of our minds But I know we'll get by Cause we are breathing -- We are breathing -- We are breathing I know -- through the hurting it's hard to see But you know -- You all look the same -- You all look the same -- to me. There is blood in the sky And a fever burns the insides of our minds But I know we'll get by Cause we are breathing -- We are breathing -- We are breathing

Born into sorrow Baptized in pain Bathing in vices, to wash it away Where is the light? Where is the day? Is this a choice that I have made? Or is it just my fate to end up in this place? And when the moment comes I'll know what I have done I've fallen from grace I've fallen from grace Finding distractions Glancing away Restlessly drifting -- but never escape Where is the light? (Where is light) Where is the day? (Where is day) Where is the time? (Where is time) I've given away? Is this a choice that I have made? Or is it just my fate to end up in this place? And when the moment comes I'll know what I have done I've fallen from grace I've fallen from grace Is this a choice that I have made? Or is it just my fate to end up in this place? And when the moment comes I'll know what I have done I've fallen from grace I've fallen from grace I've fallen from grace

Bombs Away 03:22
Split the sky with streaks of hypnotizing light Bring the morning to the middle of the night Give the masses a spectacular display Back to safety before darkness turns to day Jets ignited, engines on Ninety minutes before dawn Drop them all, fall where they may Any which way, bombs away Bombs away Time to play Bombs away Crack the sky with streaks of captivating light Bring the morning to the middle of the night Give the people unforgettable displays Back to safety before darkness turns to day Falling to the cruising height Pressure building up inside Carpeting the whole landscape No one escapes Nothing remains Let 'em have it -- bombs away Bombs away Time to play Bombs away Bombs away (bombs away) Time to play (time to play) Bombs away

I never thought I would face this day So afraid of what they'll see But I'm seeing a shadow of the faith that you used to have in me Running around inside my mind Wondering how this could come to be But don't you go down without a fight Are you listening to me? Don't you go down Don't you give up Don't you give in so easily Don't you go down without a fight Are you listening to me? How does forever look to you? Is it comforting to see? You know that I'd gladly take your place But it isn't up to me And you are far -- You are far -- You are far too good to leave Now don't you go down without a fight Are you listening to me? You'll stay right here You are gonna stay with me Things disappear Are you listening to me? You'll stay right here You are going to stay with me Your place is here Are you listening to me? I never thought I would face this day So afraid of what they'll see But I'm seeing the fabric of your faith and you're listening to me.
