Vertical Horizon

*** This is a song for someone all alone This is a song to play when they are gone To help you to begin again even though you've just begun This is a song for someone This is a song for someone wide awake This is a song to give a little break To help...

I wasn't sleeping... I wasn't dreaming... I kept my head down, I kept my head down.. I wasn't laughing.. I think I was crashing.. Coz I always fall down, I always fall down.. Now everything I've ever known just fades into the the afterglow This light surround...

I need you to hear me I want you to feel this It should be clear as fear and plain as day I'm not going to bend now You're not gonna break me You'll never be hard enough to scratch my face I wanted to feel you I tried to belong here Well all of the ghosts and...

So you say I'm too quiet Holding things Up in my head I say so much But you don't buy it I don't want to wake up Alone in my head Oh say that you'll never go now Don't go Don't go [Chorus] I need a lot of you I want a lot of you I need a lot of you All of y...

We started out so brand new darling But now it seems that nothing can change your mind I have seen your city lights But have you seen my country skies Watch the world go twirling by And perhaps it's common fears Or uncommon hearts That makes us insincere And...

It seems you're feeling down You don't know how long But you know you don't like it Lost in your room It seems you're feeling tired You don't know what from One too many parties Makeup hides the wounds [Chorus] Answer me Giving up won't get you out Can't you...

So you sailed away Into a grey sky morning Now I'm here to stay Love can be so boring Nothing's quite the same now I just say your name now [Chorus] But it's not so bad You're only the best I ever had You don't want me back You're just the best I ever had S...

Closer than I've ever been With you. Trying to get settled in After all we went through and Just breathing for a moment To see what we had Before it got stolen Can we get back this love? Just like we had this love Just like we had enough Just like we...

I saw an open door and I looked inside it But I'd no idea What you were hiding So now I'm holding the bag And it's heavy And the conversation stopped So much for friendly And if I told you I was not very good At making small talk when I should But you have o...

[Chorus] And even though I'm right behind you Shadows haunt and taunt your hand I cannot be your everything But I'll be your candyman You move a sudden grace, a child upon the Earth You wanted love to find you but you found it first [Chorus] We look through...

The waves on the shore, can't be ignored Soon they're all around you The cavalry's failed, they've all gone But you're holding on Somehow it's not what you asked for Why do you cry in the morning When the line is just forming I know you think I'm just...

Little girl was down by the waterside The sun so hot and the roses so red where she lie As little boys sit and watch as she twirls all around Sunny smiles not a raincloud could bring that girl down But now.... What's behind those big brown eyes Do you dream a...

Echo, echo... We come, and we go-woah No I don't want to be just another Echo, echo... Everywhere I go There's something that I really need Everyone I know Is someone I want to be Even though I don't really know me I better pick it up Before I let it slip aw...

Somewhere there's speaking It's already coming in Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind You never could get it Unless you were fed it Now you're here and you don't know why But under skinned knees and the skid marks Past the places where you used to lea...

Where does the time go Spinning my wheels Standing still It's like running on ice I only gain a little distance when I fall How did I become a molecule In the concrete of this city Indifferent to my endless motion In a space too small to see Nonetheless expect...

Oh I know That things are gonna change The only thing for certain Is that nothing stays the same But all I want Is love from you Give me your hand To hold on to And if tears fill your eyes Listen to my music it's no surprise [Chorus:] I don't want to be famou...

I don't think you notice When you see my face I guess you're waiting To spin me around again Wheels I guess are turning Somewhere inside my head I know that this is Deeper than you get But you're coming back again You don't mean to waste my time But you're c...

Seems like only yesterday But it started long ago Trials tribulations And notes in the autumn nights We didn't know way back then What brothers we really were Letting the time pass quickly And watching it go [Chorus:] But we stood together And we made each o...

Take these roses off of me Let me live, let me be For a little while Let my eyes, See everything and nothing in their time I do not mind Who've guess I'd learn To let the walls around me burn Light up the hillside My words, I ate them for so long and nothing...

Hold my thoughts I'm at an impasse Past the place I stopped before The sweeper's sweeping fragments Of my head out the door And the ice it burns upon my forehead The calmness starts to scream Must I always hold the upright When my soul longs to dream [Chorus...

Touch ticking in the torchlight Flicking like a firefight in my mind Stuck standing in the crosswalk Heavy like dump trucks in my mind Mess careful where you make it I can't seem to shake it anymore Stunned overdrawn and outgunned Waiting out the outcome on th...

I need to know if you were real 'Cause I've been known to get it wrong When the memory comes I'll say I'm always in the dark You got me now I want to give you back I want to give you back Somewhere out of here I want to give you I want to give you I want t...

I'm on the outside, looking in What do I see? So much of this left to begin Where would I be? Out on the outside, looking in Cover me through this night Guess I don't know what's, left to say But hear me out All of the dreams of, yesterday Keep breaking me do...

Goodnight my sun Goodnight my friend Rest your soul at this Long day's end The fire inside Will warm our night And daddy's arms will Hold you tight Dream of summer skies Sunset is bound to each sunrise Rest is your first right My friend goodnight This world...

Keep on looking, find a way out Get a hold on hoping, scream and shout A new addiction, another show Truth and fiction, well I did not know [Chorus:] I didn't know you and you didn't know me Broken branches and a family tree Blown over this wind is wide A lon...

I know it's been a long road To get these towns behind me and I Will gladly reap what we may sow I am There for you and you're there for me I stopped believing a long time ago And it's you I keep seeing And I won't let you go [Chorus:] Are you waiting for He...

I found the pieces in my hand They were always there It just took some time for me to understand You gave me words I just can't say So if nothing else I'll just hold on while you drift away Cause everything you wanted me to hide Is everything that makes me fee...

We're all lost We're all found We're all the same Just one heart Beats in us We're different names Just one heart Oh- different names Oh me, inside you Cause I wanna be, Inside you Inside you Take this hand Lift me up Into your sky Oh, hold me here It's just...

I am the blood I am the heartbeat I am the needle drawing me from me Separate vials for the vile I see I am the mind And I know what I know Fragments of pictures form my core All strewn about on this prison floor [Chorus:] Watched on by secret eyes Hidden in...

I'm here, wide awake again This fear is something I call a friend Hello again It's been a while since I saw you here I don't remeber you saying goodbye No, It doesn't matter it's over Here I've been waiting All my life All this time It doesn't matter it's ove...

I saw a young man by a telephone He was sitting alone in the rain I said, "Hey, young man what you doing here?" He said, "Sir, I'm going insane" See I love an American beauty But nobody here understands So he looked to the sky with resentment in his eyes And...

I can't describe I can't believe How i feel inside I know i just met you The other night But i've never Felt anything That's felt so right [Chorus:] I want you to Take my Lips And make them yours Take my fears And let my heart soar Cause i've never felt Like...

Cut it down go put it away Take an inside look on the outside Another day Take time look at the sunshine Have mine it's better on you anyway Nobody's perfect all the time But I know you And you know me And it's alright I'm waking up gonna buy me some shoes...

It's a beautiful life What does it mean to you It's a beautiful life Then i awake up Wonder where my clothes are Try to find some more stars And i'm stuck With the same old thing That i always dream I light a cigarette And it's not right Where's my ashtray Wh...

Well I know that no one is to blame But do you feel my strength when you call my name 'Cause I feel yours inside How could this be more right And I have traveled through my mind I've given all my dreams up to time Tell me what else can I do We'll I'm nothing...

Miracle It's taken much too long To get it right Would it be so wrong To maybe find someone A miracle And all you really need Is everything you could never be And so you'd give it all For a miracle [Chorus] Is there a trace Inside her face Of a...

No fog clear in the moonlight The stars shine so bright now's the time I close my eyes - soft wind touch my face Cool sand upon the place where I once kissed you And held you close Now I will reach for the stars Because Oh my love, that's where you are [Choru...

Breathe in the water Drown in the sky High, high above her While I'm flowing through your eyes Hold me in motion Still in your sun Under this ocean There's a world melt into one And i'm hanging on to everything i hold dear And i'm letting go of fear I'm hang...

Oh won't you listen O Lord to my plea for justice Can't you hear my cry for help Try to heed my honest prayer And judge me in my favor 'Cause you know my heart You have come to me at night But it's so hard to speak no evil In a hole deprived of light So I pr...

The clouds are rollin´ in Who will watch them? The waves are strong The boat is gone I hope they´re swimming Little boy lost in the woods Where´s the clearing? The town is out They´re calling loud But he´s not hearing It seems to me I´m always mile...

Oh you make me lay down Oh you make me forget I am here Oh you're making me safe now Oh you make the faces disappear I'm all right by the way Everyone saves the day Sometimes I feel it [Chorus] Send it up Send it up now Send it up [Chorus] Oh I feel so clo...

For so long my life's been sewn up tight inside your hold And it leaves me there without a place to call my own I know now what shadows can see There's no point in running 'less you run with me It's half the distance through the open door Before you cut me do...

Open the window Let the sunset in If only for the last time Let me see you smile again I'll take my records You can have your books I'm sorry I never read them But it says so much about us Always trying To make love out of care The perfect recipe But somethi...

Sometimes I can't get enough Ooh, of you This friendly game keeps getting rough Think I'm breaking through I cannot hide this well This well as I should There's always something left to tell Tell me is it good? I see you Do you see me too? Close your eyes and...

And the man who would be Santa slips into the room And the hour of daylight's yet to come but he hopes they don't wake too soon All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow The children sleep upstairs and Santa works below And he can hear the children...

This mountain we must climb over This mountain we must climb I will follow you over We will survive It's time now We must be moving onward It's time for us to fly Take care and look over your shoulder I'm there all the time If your lost and you need someone...

I hope you know why You're taking me for a ride I'm taking it on the chin Protecting the parts where the anger's been When it's deep inside And each day my hope subsides It's killed by your reasons why Chalking it up to fate What's to become of the injured h...

God why you want to play with me Can't you see I'm tumbling down And like your favorite toy Boy I'm tired of being thrown around You lead me through this life of complication and delusion So you drop it in my lap and slap me back towards confusion When it's s...

Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind [Chorus:] And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some...

You and I, Are here, underwater Seconds are so dear, underwater Searching for a light, to draw me closer I hold my breath in tight, bring me closer I feel your touch, will you pull me up again? It's not so bad down here, underwater Once you get past the fear,...

An old man lying by the road Black is night He's got his finger on the trigger An easy target in sight He's got no future, no family tree He's got a three dollar bottle And he drinks 'till he can't see All night, all night..... A young girl waiting on a line...

Take a listen through the window Take a lover on the radio Ask her if she's got an answer Do you know Time enough to get a good one Though they never seem to get done I am standing for a reason Do you know Chorus 'Cause I don't know how And I don't know wher...

Heaven knows that you're with me now Heaven knows that you're here I feel your breath all around me now And all the pain just disappears It goes away, it goes away And it only hurts, when you cry I'm only sad when there's tears in your eyes I can't lie and sa...

When I was just a young boy My mama said to me Don't fall in love willingly Now that is all forgotten Unwilling memory But if you change your mind I will walk the line I'll follow.... Willingly We used to talk about it But now it seems the wind has blown yo...

Dear baby, baby Won't you I go crazy, crazy For you Won't you tell me, tell me What to do I go crazy, crazy For you Cause the way you look at me I can say you set me free And no matter what you say I won't go away I won't go away I see your world, the world...

Here in the light It burns you up inside Here in the shell of a sun We echo on Too much listening Not enough living [Chorus] And you say What did I say What did you say We just Go away Go away Go away It helps you out Knowing I'm left out Locked in a box wi...

I've got to be honest I think you know I'm covered in lies and that's okay There's somewhere beyond this I know But I hope I can find the words to say Never again, no No never again Chorus 'Cause you're a God And I am not And I just thought That you would kn...
