Lonely Wolf

It's getting harder to be free
Sometimes I feel like my body
is too fragile a vessel for my spirit
If you could see what the chains do to me
You'd understand
You'd know that I have to go
I have to…
I might be the lonely wolf
If you try to keep me in your white church
I might make you doubt your worth
‘Cause I’m done letting others tell me what works
And when the moon comes over the valley, I think I can taste it
And when the wind blows down through the mountains, I can’t help but chase it
I can’t see where I’m headed but it shouldn’t be wasted
Don’t hold me back
Don’t hold me back
This might be my price to pay
If I want the wild, then I can’t stay
‘Cause I have tried the narrow lane
All it does is keep my soul in chains
And when the moon comes over the valley, I think I can taste it
(No time to stay)
And when the wind blows down through the mountains, I can’t help but chase it
(Take me away)
I can’t see where I’m headed but it shouldn’t be wasted
(Eyes wide awake)
Don’t hold me back
Don’t hold me back
I’m racing, all alone
I see the dawn
It’s hopeless, I’m already gone (X2)
And when the moon comes over the valley, I think I can taste it
And when the wind blows down through the mountains, I can’t help but chase it
I can’t see where I’m headed but it shouldn’t be wasted

Believe

I think I’ve been on this road for far too long
‘Cause something doesn’t feel right
Since I’ve been here singing along to your song
I’ve been losing sleep, sleep at night
And I can see what’s mine
I’ve been watching for the omens, omens and the signs
But maybe when you want it too much
All the shades of red will make you colorblind
All I need now is a reason to believe
There’s a way out and I’m strong enough to leave
I’m gonna burn this motherfucker down
And I’ll go and you’ll know it was me
Just watch me now, ‘cause it’s true and you better believe
Everything I see reminds me that I’m not
Where I want to be
Everything I do it never seems enough
When it comes to you, you and me
And I can see what’s mine
I’ve been watching for the omens, omens and the signs
I’ve been lost before, but this time
All the shades of red won’t make me colorblind
All I need now is a reason to believe
There’s a way out and I’m strong enough to leave
I’m gonna burn this motherfucker down
And I’ll go and you’ll know it was me
Just watch me now, ‘cause it’s true and you better believe!
Now you’ve messed with me
So sit back wait and see
Keep your eyes on me
‘Cause I don’t think you know
Just how far I’ll go
It’s time for me to reap what you’ve sown
All I need now is a reason to believe
There’s a way out and I’m strong enough to leave
I’m gonna burn this motherfucker down
And I’ll go and you’ll know it was me
Just watch me now, ‘cause it’s true and you better believe

Down To You

Every time you call, I save the message because I’m a fool
Even though I know that you see nothing between me and you
Every time you talk about the boys who don’t understand you
All I want to say is they don’t know you the way that I do
But maybe one day you’ll change your mind
And everything I do will feel like light
I’ll be the one that you choose to turn to
Maybe one day I’ll make you mine
And all this loneliness will die
I’m waiting, but it all comes down to you
10 years I knew this night was coming, I’ve been living a lie
That sacred part of you, it drives me crazy, I can’t keep it inside
So tell me why, after tonight it could ever be enough to just pretend
So tell me why, you’re so scared to try, ‘cause you can swear all you want,
The wine’s telling lies, but I see the truth, you’re lost in my eyes
Maybe one day you’ll change your mind
And everything I do will feel like light
I’ll be the one that you turn to
Maybe one day I’ll make you mine
And all this loneliness will die
I’m waiting, but it all comes down to you
You and me got a history and I think it’s time
That you see all the things that I see in my mind
If I show you my heart, could you learn how to love
The way that I want, or would it just make you run
I’d be what you need, if you let me
Maybe one day you’ll change your mind
And everything I do will feel like light
I’ll be the one that you turn to
Maybe one day I’ll make you mine
And all this loneliness will die
I’m waiting, but it all comes down to you

Lazy Sunday

The world is a mess
But lately nothing can phase me
I’ve been put to the test
But I’m not buying into the crazy
Who’s to say that I’m lost
Maybe I’m just taking the long way (ooooooh)
Holding hands with my thoughts
I think I’ll just be
Aimlessly wandering free
Walking the tight rope gracefully
Reminding myself every day that I’m good
There’s nothing like the feel of rain
Enchanted by the things I once thought mundane
A little sun through the gray (a little sun, a little sun)
Nothing like the taste of spring
Nothing like the beauty of simple things
On a lazy Sunday
When I’m caught in the grind,
Praying for some inspiration
When I’m fighting with time
Wrapped up in the destination
When it all falls apart
I flip the script and try to embrace it
Isn’t life such an art
We always want to rearrange it
No need to worry bout me (not about me)
I’m walking this tight rope gracefully
Reminding myself every day that I’m good
There’s nothing like the feel of rain
Enchanted by the things I once thought mundane
A little sun through the gray (a little sun, a little sun)
Nothing like the taste of spring
Nothing like the beauty of simple things
On a lazy Sunday (a little sun, a little sun)
Ooooh (oooh) Aaaaah (da da da daah)
Oooooh (oooh) Aaaaaah (da da da daah)
Oooh ooooh
Ooooh oooooh
There’s nothing like the feel of rain (oooooh)
Enchanted by the things I once thought mundane
A little sun through the gray (oooohh- ahhhh)
Nothing like the taste of spring (oooooh)
Nothing like the beauty of simple things (simple things)
On a lazy Sunday (a little sun, a little sun)
On a lazy Sunday (a little sun, a little sun)
On a lazy Sunday

Goodbye

I don’t need you to analyze me
I already got a fire under my feet
All of the things you say make it seem
Like you want me to be something that I’m not
I don’t need you to terrorize me
With all of your words and the way that you see
I know what I’m doing, I know what I need
I can’t take your insecurity
I was stuck inside a prison of your mind
But I’m breaking out and now I’m not so blind
My faith is on the rise
(hoo hoo)
And you’re worried that I’m gonna see right
through those lying eyes
(hoo hoo oo oo)
Well you just might be right
My faith is on the rise
(hoo hoo)
And I won’t let you get inside my precious heart tonight
(hoo hoo oo oo)
So lets just say, lets just say goodbye
Like a child who is more than naive
I fell at your feet cuz I thought that you’d see
The hope in my heart and the fire in my dreams
And deliver what you promised me
But you tore me apart at the seams
Without even knowing cuz I couldn’t see
Till I was broken, no I wasn’t me
But I’m taking back my dignity
I was stuck inside a prison of your mind
But I’m breaking out and now I’m not so blind
My faith is on the rise
(hoo hoo)
And you’re worried that I’m gonna see right
through those lying eyes
(hoo hoo oo oo)
Well you just might be right
My faith is on the rise
(hoo hoo)
And I won’t let you get inside my precious heart tonight
(hoo hoo oo oo)
So lets just say, lets just say goodbye
Do do doo doo doo
Do do do doo oohhh
My faith is on the rise
(on the rise)
And you’re worried that I’m gonna see right
through those lying eyes
(no more lies)
Well you just might be right
My faith is on the rise
(see the light)
And I won’t let you get inside my precious heart tonight
(say, say goodbye-eye)
So lets just say, lets just saaaaayyy...Yeah!
(goodbye-eye, goodbye-eye, yeah. Do do doo doo doo)
Lets just saaaaayyy,...Yeah!
(goodbye-eye, goodbye-eye, yeah. Do do doo doo doo)
C'mon let's just oooh yeah!
(wuh oh)
Ohhh now!
(uh oh)
Let's just say goodbye! Oh yeah!
(wuh oh)
Whoah Whoah…
