1. Prayer From Nowhere
I’m broken down
On the side of the road
With no way to reach you
And nowhere to go
Can you still grow wings
After you fall
With a little bad luck
You can lose it all
I’ve been enchained
But dressed for the occasion
Wore a halo in Hell
Fell from the cliff
Of my dreams
And nothing I see
Is ever what it seems
Love, don’t take me down
And I’m looking for a sign of life
To get me to the next one
Holding my breath
‘Til the air fills with light
Lord, you gotta lift me up
Drinking it down
‘Til faith is found
In the blood of Christ
On your love
I will drown
Blasphemy
Sanctity
All converge
Into me
Don’t let me fall deeper
Through the hole
In my soul
Don’t measure my worth
By the gold in my earth
The afterlife is nice
But I really just need you tonight
Oh before I go
I want you to know
I loved you so
And I’m looking for a sign of life
To get me through tonight
Hold me
Oh haunt me
Oh love
You gotta lift me up
2. Night Light
In the autumn all I could see
Was the fall in the sunrise
I did not envision this prison
I just live in it for now
My sentence was a hundred years
Of words unheard
You said “you’re doing this all wrong”
I’m doing this all wrong
It’s getting harder to say what I want to say
I spent all my life in Hell and now
I’m trying to get away
And if you think you have
A reason for someone unqualified at everything
To keep hanging around
Then I would not let you down
No, I would not let you down
You keep taking me away
From the thunder and the rain
All the storms of yesterday
See the clouds part
It’s just the way you say my name
That makes me see another day
A seething atheist prayed for an angel
I flicked my last cigarette
In the flickering street light
Now we’ve both burned out
Goodnight, I love you
Talk to you tomorrow
I drank too much
But I needed you to know
I wished wreckage towards the heavens
But I reckon I’m ready for the reckoning
I thought substance abuse could be cute
But now I dream of silence and gardens
If you think you need a needy soul
I’m here on my knees
And ready for the…
Gates of gold
Let me in
Take my heart
Repent my sins
A crown of thorns
A face of tears
The past is dead
The future’s here
You keep taking me away
From the thunder and the rain
All the storms of yesterday
See the clouds part
It’s just the way you say my name
That makes me see another day
A seething atheist prayed for an angel
I flicked my last cigarette
In the flickering street light
Now we’ve both burned out
Goodnight, I love you
Talk to you tomorrow
I drank too much
But I needed you to know
I needed you tonight
I needed you tomorrow
I needed you to no end
I needed you to know
3. Psalm 23
I want to storm the gates of Heaven
Take you back to where you came from
Is it a sin to live with so much love
I want to feel you in my blood
As I’m drowning in your flood
Is it a crime to live with so much lust
Oh the sun
You never needed
Don’t pretend
You never ever wanted
You can take me back to your garden of love
Take me back to your garden of love
As above and so below
I’ll be your shadow in the valley of death
I’ll be your shadow in the valley of death
Take me ’til there’s nothing left
Sacrifice
Mercy
Faith
Ecstacy
Divinity
Rapture in
Original Sin
Take my hand
I’ll let you in
4. Love Is All
To grow flowers
You need sun
Water
Love
A still life of a perfect web
With some life still stuck in it
We are anchored to existence
But don’t want to be dragged down
Rose has risen up to Heaven
But since living, sends its flailing
Ivy lines the rainforest of my twisted loving mind
Wishes pierced with poison arrows
Years evading invading sorrow
All the streets I romanticized
Never knew my name
Staring at the bluest sky through
Buildings climbing
Closer to collapse
I stop and think of
All the emptiness I knew
Before you
Like Christ we rise
Because they wanted us to fall
So many years I waited
Just to find you
Love is all
I planted flowers
Now I’m tending to them
When the rain and sun aligned
I felt alive for the first time
I’m digging deeper into true devotion
We must outgrow those who do not know
How to nurture us back to life
Love is all
5. Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday Dark Star
Hope all your dreams come true
Oh I’ve never seen anything as beautiful as you
In the heart of every galaxy
Rains diamonds from your eyes
Come in to the light of the jealous moon
And kiss me goodnight
Happy Birthday Dark Star
Oh I hope your wish came true
I’ve never seen anything shine as bright as you
In the center of the universe
The candy coated lies
Eclipse the sun on everyone
And kiss me goodbye
Something in the atmosphere explodes
Kingdom comes as no surprise
Heaven knows
Fill the void inside I can’t explain
The horizon grips the fire from within
Don’t fade
We never needed you more
Do not faint
You’re burning in the afterglow
Happy Birthday Dark Star
Hope all your dreams come true
Oh I’ve never seen anything as beautiful as you
6. Honey Flower
I’ve got a habit of taking things too far
But I’m taking my time with you
To make you mine
You’ve got a habit of taking things too hard
That’s why I’m making it easy babe
Quit your crying
I’m in love with tomorrow
When I think of yesterday
The pain and the sorrow
Take it all away
Heal your heartache
A pile of broken bones
Free your spirit
Let your body roam
I got a feeling
Crawling on my skin
Forsaken and sweet honey
I let you in
I’m not dead I am borrowed
From the grave unlucky souls
Heaven is heavy
And, hell is oh so cold
You’re a flower
Soaking up the rain
Out of the blue
I would do it all again
Tell me how does it feel
When the day is done
Tell me how does it feel
When it all disappears
Does the moon lift you up
Does the sun let you down
Were you sadder then
Are you happier now
7. Promised Land
There’s no resting for the wicked
Imagine how tired I am
I prayed for warmth and peace
But some winters never end
In California burning
Old haunts and a new romance
In life we love
In death we dance
I get a little too high
I get a little too low
Take my hand to the promised land
I wanna make your dreams come true
I wanna make your darkest dreams come true
Cherry kisses on the lips and
All gold grows under your rainbow
Can I just spend my life buried alive inside of you?
In life we love
In death we dance
In life we love
In death we dance
I get a little too high
I get a little too low
Take my hand
To the promised land
It’s a long, long, long way to go
It’s a cold, cold, cold road alone
Blue days
Black nights
Purple haze
White light
