Magic
02:15

Sometimes I want to escape
from thoughts in my head
that lead me astray
Sometimes I wish I could levitate
Spread my wings and
ascend to a higher state
Oh oh, I’m a true believer
That magic exists in a lonely dreamer
Oh let your spirit shine
If you’re emanating love
Let it free your mind
Sometimes I have to admit
My pride gets so strong I won’t let you in
Sometimes I need to forgive myself
So I can be of use to somebody else
Oh oh, I’m a true believer
That magic exists in a lonely dreamer
Oh let your spirit shine
If you’re emanating love
Let it free your mind
We all have our own higher calling
When it’s lost in the midst we start falling
Out of struggle and pain
Hardships and shame
We can beat all the odds
And find our way
Oh oh, I’m a true believer
That magic exists in a lonely dreamer
Oh let your spirit shine
If you’re emanating love
Let it free your mind

Oceans

Never had wings
But I learned how to fly
By studying the greats
Now I'm one with the sky
And there's no going back
My feet have left the ground
Keep my head in the stars
And I'm never coming down
Somedays my mind plays out in slow motion
When I'm manifesting sounds that span across oceans
Somedays my mind won't let me be
Till I come to understand that everybody needs a dream
I find my peace
When I step back and breathe
Complete the impossible
And come to believe
There's no mountain too high
No valley too low
I spread love through my music
And watch as it grows
Somedays my mind plays out in slow motion
When I'm manifesting sounds that span across oceans
Somedays my mind won't let me be
Till I come to understand that everybody needs a dream
No expectations
I do this for my soul
If you don't get the message
You don't need to know
No expectations
I do this for my soul
If you don't get the message
You don't need to know
Somedays my mind plays out in slow motion
When I'm manifesting sounds that span across oceans
Somedays my mind won't let me be
Till I come to understand that everybody needs a dream

Eternal Love
02:44
|

I don’t mind when the seasons change
And the leaves fall to the ground
I don’t mind when the cold air bites
And the rain comes pouring down
I don’t mind the shades of spring time
And long hot summer days
Most of all I love every moment
I share with you today
Years go by in the blink of an eye
Memories fade, but the stories survive
Holding onto what feels right
I will stay by your side
as the day turns to night
With eternal love as my guide
I don’t mind if the days go by
and we’re living in a dream
I don’t mind if it’s all a lie
and we stay in make believe
I don’t mind if the years go by
And I forget who I used to be
As long as I can pass the time
With you right next to me
Years go by in the blink of an eye
Memories fade, but the stories survive
Holding onto what feels right
I will stay by your side
as the day turns to night
With eternal love as my guide

New Direction
03:03
|

|
Been here before
There's a full moon rising
Out of the dark
Into a clear horizon
I don't know why
Something inside is telling me
Run for your life
Run‘til you're free from the fire
Waiting for something that doesn't exist anymore
But you can't get it out of your head
Maybe it's time for a change
But you can't stand the fear of a new direction
Been there before
Now the sun is shining
Everything's right
Beauty is multiplying
I don't know why
Something just won't stop telling me
You deserve more
Why don't you settle the score
Waiting for something that doesn't exist anymore
But you can't get it out of your head
Maybe it's time for a change
But you can't stand the fear of a new direction
Open the door
It’s been there all along
Welcome the day
And know that you belong

Miles Away
02:38
|

|
Don't know much about anything
The more I try, the less I claim to know
How to surrender control
I just can't seem to get enough
Maybe I can learn to trust and grow
Out of my fear into hope
Sometimes I want to start over
When nothing's going my way
Sometimes I lose my composure
When everything I need feels like it's miles away
I don't want to be left behind
Traveling the depths of time alone
Destined for nowhere to go
Somewhere out in the in between
Can't stop thinking life's a dream we all share
Even after we're not there
Sometimes I want to start over
When nothing's going my way
Sometimes I lose my composure
When everything I need feels like it's miles away

Long Time Coming
02:46

Been a long time
Been a long time coming
You already know
Now it's my time
Time to hit the ground running
Get out and hit the road
Been a long time
Been a long time coming
You already know
Now it's my time
Time to hit the ground running
Get out and hit the road
I was a fool for never seeing
I was so lost but didn't know
Woke up to find all I needed
Was to leave my fears behind and let it go
Headed out of town
Northbound, keep going
Where the wild things roam
Won't stop till I get where the water's flowing
Never coming home
Headed out of town
Northbound, keep going
Where the wild things roam
Won't stop till I get where the water's flowing
Never coming home
I was a fool for never seeing
I was so lost but didn't know
Woke up to find all I needed
Was to leave my fears behind and let it go
Been a long time
Been a long time coming
You already know
Now it's my time
Time to hit the ground running
Get out and hit the road

Part of Life
03:14
|
|||
|
I'm starting over again
No matter what it takes
I can't expect to win
Without making mistakes
I appreciate
All my ups and downs
No matter if I fall
I get up off the ground
I won't waste away without a fight
Time may pass, but I won't let it pass me by
I won't quit as long as I'm alive
I may fail 'cause it's just a part of life
Used to be invisible
No matter how I tried
Couldn't seem to get past
How to simply survive
So I bottled it up
With nothing left to give
I was losing myself
Until I learned how to live
I won't waste away without a fight
Time may pass, but I won't let it pass me by
I won't quit as long as I'm alive
I may fail because it's just a part of life
When I don't have the strength
To take another step
I inhale the love
I receive with every breath
When I'm feeling afraid
Don't know what to do
I picture the power
Of love shining through
I won't waste away without a fight
Time may pass, but I won't let it pass me by
I won't quit as long as I'm alive
I may fail because it's just a part of life

Weather
03:01
|

|
I find my inspiration underneath all kinds of places
Hidden in the many faces I have yet to know
I choose my destination based on all my calculations
Till I'm reminded I was never in control
Sometimes I want to change the weather
Sometimes I try to change your mind
Sometimes I worry about the future
Sometimes I want to press rewind
I find there's nothing like being wrong to make things right
Being smart doesn't make you wise and I don't have a clue
That's when I realized it doesn't matter how hard you try
You can live in a bold-faced lie, but it doesn't make it true
Sometimes I want to change the weather
Sometimes I try to change your mind
Sometimes I worry about the future
Sometimes I want to press rewind
Just when I think I've got it all figured out
Something is waiting to bring me down
Pick up the pieces that I left behind
There's something more that I have yet to find
Sometimes I want to change the weather
Sometimes I try to change your mind
Sometimes I worry about the future
Sometimes I want to press rewind

Sutures
03:04
|
|||
|
Pressure is building
The ceiling is caving in
Breathing constricted
Chemicals shifting again
What more can I do as I wait for inspiration?
Out of the past, to an unknown destination
Starving for light, of a bright new future
Stuck in the dark as I nurse these sutures
It's all too familiar
Illusions won't let me rest
Wish I could show you
These voices keep spinning around in my head
What more can I do as I wait for inspiration?
Out of the past, to an unknown destination
Starving for light, of a bright new future
Stuck in the dark as I nurse these sutures

Nothing's Ever Promised
02:21
|
|||
|
Sunshine put a spell on me
Close my eyes so I can receive
Vibrations put my mind at ease
Give praise for this moment I live and breathe
'Cause nothing's ever promised
The future's never guaranteed
Living is a hustle
But loving somebody is free
Moonlight show me how to see
When darkness takes ahold of me
And there's no sight of victory
I surrender control and I'm at peace
'Cause nothing's ever promised
The future's never guaranteed
Living is a hustle
But loving somebody is free
I was searching for truth
in all the wrong places
When real life exists
In between the spaces
Across the unknown
I'm still finding my way
I think in black and white
But this world is full of gray
And nothing's ever promised
The future's never guaranteed
Living is a hustle
But loving somebody is free
