Paint Me A Picture

Buckle up quick
I know it’s tough to hear
This ride we’re driving is one in fear
Uncertain destination
Heart giving way to the change and distance
Buckling under strange indifference of freedom
We used to know
Could someone color me by number at least
Cut me out
Paste me piece by piece
Together
I’m not looking for a savior
Just a believer
Who could use an answer
S come on
Paint me a picture
Grasping at straws or anything we can
Drowning in the panic of short lifespans
Fearing the great equalizer
Truth is out there in the great unseen
Hindsight’s coming so wait and see
Who’s lying and who’s truth telling
Could someone color it me number at least
Cut me out
Paste me piece by piece
Together
I’m not looking for a savior
Just a believer
Who could use an answer
So come on
Paint me a picture
It’s always darkest when
You’re waiting for the sun
To come up again
Watching that cold sunset
Fade into tomorrow
In darkness
It’s always darkest when
You’re waiting for the sun
To come up again
Watching that cold sunset
Fade into tomorrow
In darkness
Could someone color me by number at least
Cut me out
Paste me piece by piece
Together
I’m not looking for a savior
Just a believer
Who could use an answer
So come on
Come on
Come on
Paint me a picture

Days (My Tomorrow)

Press your face up against the glass
As the days turn to future past
Time so quick it slips away
Another born another dies
Ain't no time machine to climb inside
To change that dash upon your grave
The question isn't about time
Or what is yours and what is mine
Nor what it is you fear
We're all equal we're the same
Coffins don't differentiate
Every story ends the same here
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Dawn to dusk
And today is just yesterday's tomorrow
Time gets away from me
And with the time we have
There ain't none to borrow
It’s paid in full
So spend it now before it's left behind you
I hold tomorrow wrapped inside
The crisp smell of warm sunshine
Like a summer tucked away
The winter truth is cold and harsh
Always clawing at your heart
And it never goes away
Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Dawn to dusk
And today is just yesterday's tomorrow
Time gets away from me
And with the time we have
There ain't none to borrow
It’s paid in full
So spend it now before it's left behind you
Where’s the light
Where’s the hope in my tomorrow
Where’s the light
Where’s the hope in my tomorrow
You’re the light
You’re the hope in my tomorrow
And today ain’t just yesterday's tomorrow
Time gets away from me
And with the time we have
Oh there’s some to borrow
It’s paid in full
So find it now before it's left behind you

Game

When the time comes back around
Do you think we could pretend
To lay all our troubles down
Maybe learn to love again
Though everything has changed changed changed
Still I feel the same, same old way
Was it just a game, game we played
And I know I broke your heart
And you know you broke mine too
Come seven years down the road
We will say look we made it through
Though everything had changed changed changed
Still we felt the same, same old way
Is this just a game, game we played
Never giving up
Never giving up on you
Never giving up
Never giving up on you
Never giving up
Never giving up on you
Never giving up
Never giving up on you
Never giving up
Never giving up on you
Never giving up
Never giving up on you

Waiting on the Day

Wake up in the morning
Feel the grief a-going
But change never seems to rise
Wrap myself in hoping
Wishing I could see you
When I open up my eyes
I don't mind the days
Never seem to change
Tomorrow's all but gone
So give me another reason
To keep this faith believin'
Lord knows it's been so long
Ooo ooo ooo
Waiting on the day
Ooo ooo ooo
I won't have to wait
Never know when it'll hit ya
The grief comes out to getcha
Whether moving or you're still
Well I don't mind the tears
Crying ain't no fear
No need to overcome
Bad memories don't hurt me
Or in an way exert me
And the good grow sweeter still
Ooo ooo ooo
Waiting on the day
Ooo ooo ooo
I won't have to wait
Ooo ooo ooo
To remember without pain
Love you, love you
Always just the same
Ooo ooo ooo
you can haunt me all you like
haunt me all you like
I'll love you all my life
you can haunt me all you like
haunt me all you like
I'll love you all my life
Ooo ooo ooo
Waiting on the day
Ooo ooo ooo
I won't have to wait
