What is being known when you don't know yourself?
With money, with fame, i'll never find wealth
Isolation brings a purity that keeps me content
But don't you ever ask me where all my friends went
They will stand beside me when i'm here or when i'm gone
The knowledge that they bring me; it keeps me moving on
And moving away will help you find me
(oh no) I'm not asking for your pity
Please don't mind me
I know I am the person that you want to miss
But if you don't know yourself you'll never know bliss
When all we have is all we have known
It's all we have when we are alone
It's all I have but I should have known
I will always have you when I am alone
In the rainiest of weather the sky just wants to say
That lovers die together
Don't push yourself away
A simple sense of feeling reminds us why we live
You'll never know the meaning if you don't learn to give

Broken Wing

(Scatting)
Gotta fix my broken wing
(Scatting)
I see you walking,
talking,
to strangers.
Picking up speed,
you need to fly.
You try,
but a broken wing
will only take us in circles.
In circles.
In circles.
Around a silver ring,
you sing
to the deaf:
Left, Right,
Right, Left,
Left, Right, Right, Left.
You can't go straight...
So wait -
While I mend your broken wing.
A thing of the past,
at last,
you stop to let you drop
the weight
you've been carrying so far.
A far distance can be traveled
In circles,
In circles,
In circles.
Wait,
While I mend your broken wing (while I mend your broken wing)
Please don't cry
I can't dry
tears that fall forever
Forever again will I pretend.
So never again will I pretend to fall. (never again will I pretend)
Just wait.
While I mend your broken wing.

Look at me closely dear
I won't be around for next year (oh no)
What we have is not real
I was numb
I was blind
I could not not feel a thing
Ain't no future in the past
Go away
Our love, it will not last at all
Better things to focus on
That's the reason why I wrote this song
Here's my goodbye letter for you
Don't you open till i'm gone
Don't want to see you cry once more
Here's my goodbye letter for you
Limitations for the human race to be
Walls confine the space in which we're free
Mirrors show reflection of perception
Reality is blinded by perfection
Alluding to Infinity, Trinity, Subliminally
Light splits into many shades
Escaping from the prismic blades
Magenta, Dementia, Yellow, Hello, Cyan, Mayan

Soul Searching
03:29

So focused on perfection
Losing sense of the direction
I've come so far
I've worked too hard
Yet something stops me from progressin'
Word is i'll never make it if I don't sell my soul to satin
I hope to change what people say
Gotta find a better way
Open up my mind
I have to find my soul
I've come to realize it's time to let things go
I'm on top of the world, I'm on top of the world!
and i'm never coming down
Took a step outside and felt the wind upon my back
There's no need to hide anymore
Ain't no reason to cry anymore
It can only get better from here
It's just hard to control all the tears
I don't want to be scared anymore
I must learn to achieve what is more
Open up my mind
I have to find my soul
I've come to realize it's time to let things go
I'm on top of the world, I'm on top of the world!
and i'm never coming down

The Little Things

Look around and see the faces
Feel the sounds from different places
An ocean breeze
Oh it's suddenly the little things
And the intimacy that it brings
That makes life grand
In my dreams life seems like reality
All I see are broken artists in the streets
I feel so bad
I want to make their life so grand
I would if I just had the chance (if I had the chance)
If I had one wish
I would change the world
to help us realize that life won't last forever
We're in this together
Don't you forget it
From the moment I said it
Life will love you back
Life would seem so grand

I've never felt this way before
I fell in love with conversatin'
Keep running back to you for more
The situation is frustratin'
I know that you don't feel the same
And it's testing every ounce of patience
I refuse to be a victim to your name
Though your love is such a sweet temptation
That's all you'll ever be to me
Your love is like a sweet sensation
That's all you'll ever be it seems
Hey girl why you runnin' so fast
Just got started we can make it last
Took our future photograph
And put it in the past
And don't you ever look
Don't you ever look back
Just put it in the past
(put it in the past, never look back) x2
You look at me with those stone cold eyes
Run your fingers thru your hair (oh yeah)
I realize you're not worth my time
And i'm starting not to care (oh no)
You're fallin' fallin' fallin' deep into regret
My love for you never knew but soon you will forget
So take a picture babe cause I know longer need you
You're just a memory the next time that I see you
Hey girl why you runnin' so fast
Just got started we can make it last
Took our future photograph
And put it in the past
And don't you ever look
Don't you ever look back
Just put it in the past
(put it in the past, never look back) x2

The Real You

I have to crucify my ego
Before it's all too late
Oh I got to leave behind the negative, the cynical and the blind
Oh I got to take the time
Feeling underground I want to see the light
Forgive myself forgive the others
It's not as easy as it sounds (oh no)
I know we've all done wrong
Here's a new start now it's time to move on
Gotta keep an open mind
Seeping through the cracks I think I see the light
It's the real you
No more hiding from the lies
It's the real truth
And now I see the light
Gotta open my eyes
The future's might bright
I know i'll be .. I know i'll be alright

Baby you're my sunshine
On a lovely summer day
I'm tryna get to know you better
I'm tryna learn your ways (yeah)
When I first saw your eyes you took me to a place
I had never recognized yet I knew that I was safe
We stayed up all night just to hit the sound
Crawling out with no one else around
In the morning after
Remembering your shape
The words upon your lips babe
The look upon your face
Listen to me closely now
I know you need your space
We can take our time here baby
I'm moving at your pace
Hoping all I have will be enough
Hoping all I am won't be too much
Hoping all I have will be enough (yeah)
