This sky is silence
The group of seven new it well
This sky is silence
Have you ever seen sombody so beautiful
They're hard to look at
Their eyes caress what's in your soul
You laid me bare
How could youknow me so well
All love lies between us
As I lay here
Knowing all that you are
I love you more than my life
These words are blindness
They see only what they mean
These words are blindness
Have you ever
Known a heart so beautiful
Their face escapes you
Their words speak to the things you love
Rod Blacker (my favourite drummer) helped me hammer this one out

Found the elegance to dance with you
I'm tired, so tired
The sound of fear on your breeze
Just strikes me
Drags me down to my knees
Fight fire with fire
Look into the son
Use the light of wonder
It's all been said and done
So many times
Climbed the precipice
To be safe with you
I'm high, so high
Your lines of shadow and light
Just strike me
Raise me up from my knees
It's all that I knew
To start the day with thunder
It's all that I know
Peace is in my hands
Found the evidence
In love with you
To fight fire with water
Just feel the rain coming down
It's red on me

It's time to leave, got the sign to go
Stuck yellow light, glued in the snow
Song telling me,"not where you belong"
Glosses on sale, victims the song
Say what you mean, tell what you know
Stand in the light, put on your show
Time to do what's right, I'm pushing me
In winters light, can barely see
It doesn't have to be what we call mercy
It doesn't have to be anything at all
You just have to find the endless truth
The love that's inside you
Have you ever seen, Harris' mountain's forged
Lines fooling me, right beside the door
We all just stay on it
Can you knock one off, for my love and me
Fine example of, misplaced energy
Your passions are questions to be lived
The actions will lead you to the wall
The wall that's inside you.
It's time to leave, it's time to go
Seems so easy now

The snow's almost over and I'd forgotten
How lunglike the trees are
And all of a sudden
She strokes his grey hair and wipes the spittle
Strokes his hand gently, they've gotten brittle
Because of love
She can still see him at 18
She can still feel his love, his hands, his steel
She can still hear
FLA evening
This mist is magic
It weaves tales for telling
Some of them tragic
Sing the vibrations and cut the coral
Slide the blocks gently
A castle for her
Because of love
He can still see her at 18
The magic he can sing
Builds a house of coral steel
He can still hear

How would you like to know when your gonna die
If life was easy would you even try
In these days of miracles
In these days when war is a publicists dream
Are you so cynical, you scream
Why get the Big Buck Combo
When it makes your heart explode
Where is the wisdom in science we need
Can you have commerce with morality
Why did you and mommy
fall in and out of love
Why does Paris Hilton
Make more than a Medic that can save your life
How does your religion ask you to live your life
If all was forgiven
Blind eyes would see the light

Sometimes in stories the heroes have eyes
That can see far and wide
When he fights it's always the good fight
But something is wrong at the end of the day
When he get's home there is no Miss Lane
Takes his mask off
And stands face to face
He's got power and glory
and a real nice cape
But he doesn't have you
To show him what the truth is
To show him what true beauty is
To show him what true love is all about
Back in the city our stars on parade
He floats on glory and fame
Ms Mitchell will paint his face
But something is wrong at the end of the day
Craig Skala played the guitar lead.
James Burton came up with the main drum rhythm

Right place, right name, right time
Left her devices in the other room
Slowly, quickly show me
Pull the wool over the cover
Long face, long as lonely
She sees him wrap the rain in Hemingway
Pushes up aginst the cover
Feel the rhythm
Feel the heart of me
Songs from within
That's the love I hear
Turn me inside out
Take this love from me
Hold me, love me, save me
The lifeboat sails and she's on her way
Praying, God let him be my lover
I'll give him everything he wants and needs
This life feels so far
Forever seconds late when I'm with you
My love, my heart bleeds
A parents love left in denial
If not for you Angel, I'd be gone
Rod Blacker plays all the drums

She'll pay the price of honesty
When she can afford the downfall
Kept in the safe in spite of me
She'll need it when she feels the call
Like March in the hands of Caesar
Her shelter has crumbling walls
Here's to the rise and fall
Here lies the curtain call
I like the way it makes me feel
It brings me back to you
This fool suffers complicity
I took the worst turn at Roselawn
Lied to myself implicitly
Lied and my soul was gone
Outside the first snow had started
The ground was already cold
The course was so poorly charted
The path was so full of stones and thorns
Get back to where I started
Rod wrote the chords for the middle 8
