Alone 03:19
A lonely heart A lonely soul Lonely is the man who doesn't know The risk to love The risk to dream Seems like this is everything to me I, I don't want to be alone I, I can't leave the dream alone The hope to live The chance to die Heartbreak is the man who never tried Fear holds A timid heart Fear knows me like shadows know the dark Some things I just don't understand Somehow they must go hand in hand But then again do I even know Oohh, I know I know That lonely souls aren't Dreaming, loving Hoping, living Only dying, no I, I don't want to dream alone

Autumn Love 04:01
Blue skies all around Sun rays tumble down Fall leaves hit the ground The perfect day to spend with you Darling make my dreams come true River running free You, me, it’s what we’ll be Lost in the flow of things My heart it falls for you Tell me you say mine too Worries from yesterdays and tomorrows too Fall out of my mind Look how the birds they sing Beauty is what they bring To my time with you My heart it falls for you Tell me you say mind too Fresh smell of autumn leaves Won’t you come sit with me We'll gaze at horizon's line I'll watch the sunset fall with you Scarlet red til midnight blue Wishing that forever would hold the moonlight Never want to say goodnight I never want to say goodnight

Shadow Man 03:35
We all reap in harvest what we sow Whether good or bad sometimes I don’t know But there’s some things I’ll always fail on my own You say “child, won’t you come back home” Some find darkness running far from You Some find darkness in Your living room Oh may my darkness never hold me from Your light May Your light shine brighter on my darkest night Sunlight burn away the shadows Sunlight burn away the dark This shadow man cannot go alone any longer A good man dies for someone that he knows A really good one dies for some unknown But here’s a man the darkest parts of me He knows His fate brought death to all I owe My resurrection's what He sowed Haughty blood coursing through my veins In the brothers tale I would be the Cain Even as I pen these lines my pride grows deep within Jesus save me from my shadow sins Oh won’t you save us from our shadow sins
4.
Ghosts 04:21
I live a lie carry a bag of bones All the thoughts are running wild I just don't know Fool me once oh how he fools me twice The Devil speaks into my soul Don’t I know Am I chasing ghosts? Oh does the apparition live in me? Am I chasing ghosts? Does the Devil got his sights on me Heavy hand upon a dreaming heart Heavy hand to lead astray Our drifting souls I walk the line between a pure desire Weighted by this bag of bones A shadow hope Catching the light of the morning

Now I Know 05:02
I was a shadowed soul And I set out to water a rose Had I known, my shadows Oh how it wanted to grow Yea I wanted it too But the shadows crept through Oh my shadows Ain’t it funny, when we look back On all the things that we’ve done And how we see them now I don’t want to see you go I don’t want to move on no I wish I could take back time I longed to love but threw stones I didn’t realize the poison in my bones Oh how I threw, my shadows on you My shadows You were an east autumn breeze Yea you were the rolling tides on a cool summer night The falling sun over waters deep And its rising on the coming dawn So I can tell you that you are the one that I want And I’m sorry that my shadow weeds are what you got I’m sorry that you never knew, how I really feel about you, oh Now I know

When I was young Each day a song No worries ever plagued me When I was young Lost in the flow Of Life’s melody Created to be free When we were young Now that we’re old Sin's tale is told We're bound by fear and worry Now that we’re old Fear shares her heart Right from the start She was out to shame me Right from the start Oh how I long For Life’s freedom song Come and free my soul Oh how I’m old Young I will be Life mystery I'm dying but I’m younger Young I will be
