Set Me Free

Isn't it strange
You can live inside your own head
For a lifetime everyday
Isn't that strange
How I couldn't see the good about me
Regardless of what they'd say
Isn't that strange
How I hated me anyway
Isn't it strange
How your own eyes can deceive you
And your mind hurts and bleeds you
Isn't that strange
How it robs your youth away
Set me free
Set me free
Isn't it strange
That for 12 long years
All that I've known were lies and fears
Isnt that strange
When you think that you've made it
Suddenly your fears are changing
Isn't that strange
How there's a point past breaking
Set me free
Set me free
I guess I've learned to be brave
I guess I've learned to be true
Now the days they keep on coming
Atleast some light is shining through
Set me free
Oh no no
Now I'm free
Now I'm free
Now I'm free
Now I'm free
Now I'm free

Everything About You

Sitting by the tracks, waiting on this train to pass by
A hard blistering sun, comes down on my heavy shoulders
Just a few more moments and I'll be where you are
Oh I never dreamed, I'd hold you in my arms
How I've missed, everything about you
Your long flowered dress, those eyes and that smile on your face
I could stay, a lifetime, beside you
Come home to you, at the end of every day
When I was a young man, I thought there was a truth to find
Left you standing there, no words, as I made my goodbyes
After life laid it's hands upon me, I realised
That the only thing that I need, is you till I die.
How I've missed, everything about you
Your long flowered dress, those eyes and that smile on your face
I could stay, a lifetime, beside you
Come home to you, at the end of every day
Do you know how much you've been on my mind
Since the day I left I've been thinking about you all the time...
How I've missed, everything about you
Your long flowered dress, those eyes and that smile on your face
I could stay, a lifetime, beside you
Come home to you, at the end of everyday
I'd come home to you, at the end of every day,
I'd come home to you, at the end of every day.

Be Alone Again

I've been travelling through this life alone
I grew up rough, but I grew up strong
Most folks I see confuse my bones
Let stone hearts turn into gold
One day I'll hop the trains down south
For warmth and love, that left me out
Might take a chance overseas
To far away lands, where lovers meet
If you tell me that you love me
In the morning I will run dear
You will never get this close, because I'm scared
The city lights are burning
My heart is yearning
To get up and leave and be alone again.
I've sat on hells highway ride
Past light of day, where thoughts collide
I don't long to see that place no more
I don't long to see that place no more...
I'd like to stay for morning coffee
Shake everything behind me off me
Have our land and raise our kin
Tell stories about the life we've seen
If you tell me that you love me
In the morning I will run dear
You will never get this close, because I'm scared
The city lights are burning
My heart is yearning
To get up and leave and be alone again
To get up and leave and be alone again
If you tell me that you love me
In the morning I will run dear
You will never get this close, because I'm scared
The city lights are burning
My heart is yearning
To get up and leave and be alone again
To get up and leave,
And be alone again
To get up and leave,
And be alone again

Moving On

I remember when we met, I'll never forget
The way I fell easily in your arms
The way you covered up my soul, you took me whole
Just to drive me down a dark and lonesome road
You took away my life, you never let me speak my mind
Convinced me all this time, you were all I needed
I'm leaving you behind, go and keep your goddamn lies
I'm moving on
I will shake this feeling
I know of everything you told me
How you'd put me down and then hold me
Just to leave me by myself at night again
How you words would cut right through
There was nothing I could say or do
But I am leaving now
Go and make someone else so lonely
You took away my life, you never let me speak my mind
Convinced me all this time, you were all I needed
I'm leaving you behind, go and keep your goddamn lies
I'm moving on
I will shake this feeling
Now this is my goodbye
I wish you all the best in life
And I hope that you will find what you are looking for
I've dreamed of all that I can be
And I don't need you here with me
I have come to see that there is so much more
You took away my life, you never let me speak my mind
Convinced me all this time, you were all I needed
I'm leaving you behind, go and keep your goddamn lies
I'm moving on
I will shake this feeling
I'm moving on, I will shake this feeling
I'm moving on, I will shake this feeling
