The Soldier

their's a soldier
with a gun on his shoulder
their's a soldier
with a gun across his shoulder
he takes shelter
somewhere lost out in the field
he takes shelter
his hands together as he kneels
oh they're singing out and they're praying now
I do not want to fight
and I do not want to fight
no more
he's been blinded
shown nothin' but the war
oh we's been winded
like a toy left on the floor
he surrenders
cause this is not a young mans fight
he is a defender
of nothing but his life
oh he's singing out and he's praying now
I do not want to fight
and I do not want to fight
no more
his eyes are closed
gun full of bullets leaden
the fingers so close
just a twitch away from heaven

Losing My Faith

I don't see you standing by the bed
I don't see you when I'm drowning in the thoughts of my own head
and i don't see the clouds part in the sky
I don't see a promise land or a mount sinai
If you're so almighty, where are you now?
If you're so almighty, then why can't I figure it out?
and excuse me for my lack of faith
forgive me if I don't see you and appreciate
but I don't see the clouds part in the sky
I don't see a promise land or a mount sinai
If you're so almighty, where are you now?
If you're so almighty, then why can't I figure it out?
where are you, where are you while I'm losing my faith
there are nights, there are nights when I just stare into space
I dare you, I dare you just to show your face
where are you, where are you while I'm losing my faith
cause I'm losing my faith, yea
I'm asking questions with my hands over my ears
cause, I'm not ready if an answer should ever appear
and I don't see the clouds part in the sky
I don't see a promise land or a mount sinai
If you're so almighty, where are you now?
If you're so almighty, then why can't I figure it out?
where are you, where are you while I'm losing my faith?
there are nights, there are nights when I just stare into space
I dare you, I dare you just to show your face
where are you, where are you while I'm losing my faith
cause I'm losing my faith, yea
I just wanna know (wanna know) if heaven is real

Walk Away

day surrenders to the night
love falls in and out of sight
oh and i try with all my might
to let it slip away
was it me who built these walls
that kept you out at any cost
and was it your love that i lost
or i just had none left to give
watch me walk away
cause i gotta be on my way
i've seen it all before
i've seen you knocking at my door
but i won't answer anymore
cause i wont say what should be said
so watch me walk away
watch me walk away
watch me walk away
watch me walk away
watch me walk away

why don't you place your silver shackles on me now
why don't you bury me underneath the crowd
why don't you count me off, i'm but a number now
you sit on your throne but I've appointed you no crown
you speak of change yet still afraid i stand alone
you speak of time as though its been engraved in stone
you speak of fire but i have yet so see the flames
you are the template forever threatened by the change
and i said "hey mister whatcha gonna say?"
and i said "hey mister whatcha gonna say?"
hey mister whatcha gonna say?
hey mister whatcha gonna say?
hey mister whatcha gonna say?
hey mister whatcha gonna say?

out on barberry lane, time moves slow
out on barberry lane, clouds hang low
in the middle of field, under the big blue sky
in the middle of field, under the big blue sky
i sing na na na
yea i can feel the breeze
and i sing na na na
put my mind at ease
out on barberry lane, the world feels so far away
out on barberry lane, i'm not a man whose lost his way
out on barberry lane, and i bring with me no disguise
and out on barberry lane, i can just close my eyes
i sing na na na
yea i can feel the breeze
and i sing na na na
put my mind at ease
out on barberry lane, there's a window to the sky
out on barberry lane, i hear the wind cry
out on those rolling hills, echoes sounds of innocence
out on those rolling hills, sung out in natures hills
and i sing na na na
yea i can feel the breeze
i say na na na
put my mind ease
i say na na na
i can hear the breeze
i sing na na na
whisper me to sleep
(oh, oh, oh)
i will believe
na na na yea
i will believe
