I was searching
Even though I could be found
On the coastlands
In the corners of the dust of my mind
I knew the religion
Every line, dot, phrase and code
Even dressed for redemption
Yet a part of my heart had closed, down, down, down, down
You reached out your hand
From the highest of heavens
You reach out where fingers collide Bright hands, Bright heart
You reached out your hand
From the highest of heavens
You’ve come in, you’ve turned my head
Bright hands, bright heart
And in the suppression
When faith lies in hospitals
When holding on is hurting
When walking away seems the only hope I knew somewhere you were
There longing for me to see
But somehow my mindset
Needed climbing over or breaking down
This is why they say
Your love, love, love is better than life This is why they say
Your love, love, love is better than life I’ve tasted the dream
I’ve been to the edge and I’ve dived in This is why they say
Your love, love, love is better than life

I’ve been wearing a mask
Living like a lonely ghost of my past
In this time
I’ve been hanging there
Though I’m hidden in, shadow, shadowy nights
And i’ve been wondering, wondering If I let go now
Wondering, wondering
And i’ve been wondering, wondering If I let go
You’ve got me holding tight Tighter than I though possible You’ve got me
You got me holding long
And I breathe your breath Come inflate my lungs You’ve got me
I can’t seem to add up
What I thought was easy to solve In this sum
I see anomalies there
And I can’t work it out alone
It’s a spinning mind
Flung to the spiralling sides
It’s a spinning mind
A tinnitus interference piercing me Probing, provoking, it’s punctured my skin It’s a spinning mind
It’s a spinning mind

I am waking up In the orchard of our dreams It hasn’t been easy We haven’t been friends for a while I will turn my back On the things I’ve done That have made you disappear You haven’t been first, for a while I could I could Blame it on the weather Blame it on the plan I could, I could Blame it on my job Blame the other man I could, I could Gather up my stones Hurl them at you I could, I could But if I lay a single finger I’m hurting me too I can see the light And it doesn’t burn my eyes For the first time in a long time I’m walking out from the shadows You twist your head Turn your heart to my face Your independent smile Tells me we can be friends again I’m being honest I’m being honest I’m being honest Right with you now I’m being honest I’m being honest I’m being honest Right here now

Feeling the wild winds are waking, waking And all my best intentions thrown
I’m drifting closer to the edge
The silent cliff top suspense
Feeling the wild winds are waking, waking
I’m unsettled Unsettled
I can’t shake it off I’m unsettled Unsettled
I can’t shake it off
Pick up my ball of thoughts and throw it, throw it I’ll let the wind direct it’s path
Could hear that pin drop to the floor
And seconds later exploding
Pick up my ball of thoughts and throw it, throw it
I can see that winter is up ahead
And if I don’t get my head together
I’ll be blown away
I will be logged out, adrift, a castaway And if I don’t anchor down,
I will pass away
I can’t shake it off I can’t shake it off

When I was young
I thought that perfection was possible When I was young
I dreamed I could make it all happen When I was younger
The world seemed to be so so simple Simple
This song’s for those
Who can’t lift their heads above the pillow This songs for those
Who live in a constant present pain
This song I’ll sing
Cos sometimes you can’t seem to utter words Utter words
Crossword puzzle Mending that muddle Again and again and again My feelings are teasing Emotions are feeding
An empty and fragile skin
When I had fire
To play with, to burn things, to watch at night When I had fire
Inside me I couldn’t contain
I long for fire
To keep me dancing to the end
To the end

Daring to be more than ordinary
I was born to be brave
Born to be brave
Taking the plunge into vulnerability
I was born to be brave
Born to be brave
Being all you

Created me to

I was born to be brave


No more hiding,

No more running away
I will walk it out, I’ll will walk it out
No more hiding,

No more running away
I will stand my ground


Show up and be seen
Stand up and step out
My mind is made up
Show up and be seen
Stand up and step out


Don’t be found dancing ‘round the edge of life
I was born to be brave
I’ll count the cost, and if I lose it all, what have I lost?
Cos I was born to be brave
Being all You

created me to

I was born to be brave


No more hiding,

No more running away
I will walk it out, I’ll will walk it out
No more hiding,

No more running away
I will stand my ground


Show up and be seen
Stand up and step out
My mind is made up
Show up and be seen
Stand up and step out


I will walk it out
I will take my place
I will stand my ground
I will live by faith


Show up and be seen
Stand up and step out
My mind is made up
Show up and be seen
Stand up and step out

I’ve got An inconsistency An imbalance And I need to Press return See what First drew me in And come back to The magnitude Take some time to Selectively meditate Every now And then I’ll call out my swollen soul Peace, calm, breathe Repeat what you said to me Still this down There’s power and potency Sounds turned off The noise in my head will flee Love console Feel that The love that I’ve been an advocate for Slipped a little while Through my sieve like hands Time to Consider all The wonders and miracles In the mystery, our history Given us I take my hand Off the revolving wheel It’s hard enough to loosen control When the pounding Herds inside collide through my mind, oh I take my hand Off the revolving wheel It’s hard enough to loosen control When the pounding Herds inside collide through my mind Leaving clouds of dust unsettled
