LYRICS

Act One ~ ab imo pectore
“From the Bottom of My Heart”

Freedom Truth
True freedom
Is found in
The arms you can’t see but they
Embrace your
Embrace your heart

Love’s Mistake
You used to be
The man I dreamed of
But now I see
My worst enemy
I gotta go I gotta leave
Can’t take it no more
‘Cause every word your yellin
Breaks my heart a little love

Love, don’t gotta be, don’t gotta be
No love don’t gotta change don’t gotta change
Your love don’t gotta be a mistake

I can’t deny
What a fool I’ve been
It hurts so bad
I keep letting you in You’re so so strong
Can’t fight you no more
My baby come home
I’m waitin for you love…

Love, don’t gotta be, don’t gotta be
No love don’t gotta change don’t gotta change
Your love don’t gotta be a mistake

Just call me your woman again
And don’t take it back this time
Don’t you dare

Nobody with Somebody
There are days that I feel
All these dreams could never be real
As I turn the page
One picture holds my gaze

But we’re so stuck in the middle of nowhere when
All I want is you
All I want is you
And everybody is lookin for something but
All I need is you
All I need is you

Will the tide ever come
Shine these rocks and polish just one
So blind I beg to see
What’s right in front of me

That little town in Greece looks so good this time of year
That cozy bed in the breeze calls my name when you’re near

Act Two ~ circulus vitiosus
“Vicious Circle”

Fingertips soft on my waist
The way he brush the hair from my face
And those eyes, they could speak on their own
And I love it when I’m breakin he’s strong

I know that I know
I know that I know
I know that I I know
I don’t know
I don’t know
I don’t know that I wanna know

One Day > Act Three ~ dum vita est, spes est
“While There is Life, There is Hope”

Smoke and Mirrors that’s all you are to me
And everything I will never be
Do you use it selfishly
To escape your reality

One day I’ll thank you
Yeah I’ll thank you
For the things you don’t do for me
One day Ill walk right walk right by you
And I promise you’ll know my name
And then you will call out you’ll call out and
I wont have anything left to say

You ask for all my attention
Because you forgot to mention
Everything you think I can not do
Well I got some bad news for you

One day I’ll thank you
Yeah I’ll thank you
For the things you don’t do for me
One day Ill walk right walk right by you
And I promise you’ll know my name
And then you will call out you’ll call out and

Dare to Dream
My time is fadin
And I’m forgetin the streets in between
My world is changing
But it’s about time
To follow new streets, oh oh

My time has come
And I will not
Dare to dream
Too small
There is more to life
Than fear of falling

Our world is changing
And we’re leavin this place behind
But lookin forward
This just begins
Something worth our hearts, oh oh

My time has come
And I will not
Dare to dream
Too small
There is more to life
Than fear of falling

Play with your heart
And they will find theirs

My time has come
And I will not
dare to dream
Too small
There is more to life
than fear of falling


That Beautiful Smile
Always holdin back
Try your hardest
doesn’t last for long
No it don’t

Last for long and tell
Those worries
There isn’t nothing wrong

Cause one is no loss
Got to let it out
Hiding it just isn’t fair
So so so easy to give
Let me see those teeth girl
Smile
That beautiful smile

You know what I want
And only you can --give it up
Yeah you can
I’ll give you one too,
But mine
Is just ---- for you

Broken Keys
I struggle just to breath
Amongst this great debris
My life has turned into
But I know there’s more

Now my heart mourns all the wrongs
I thought they were so right
But as the shadows fall
I know there’s more

But Time has passed me by
And with it your loves grown so cold
I hear it when you say my name I know
That Time has passed me by

Now predicted things are real
The unseen things are seen
Against this backdrop
I know there’s more

Broken Keys are fallin from me
And with it your love
Broken Keys are fallin from me
And with it your love
Your love

Speak In Color
I speak in Blue
You think in Green
We fall in between
The gray spaces

Why can’t I speak
In the right color
Cause you don’t hear me
Why can’t I speak
To you

Life moves on
But we stay behind
Still trying to find
A shade you’ll hear tonight

Why can’t I speak
In the right color
Cause you don’t hear me
Why can’t I speak
To you

More Than
Gaps of color
Fall from changing leaves
Fragile brown and tan
Long to be green again
Life pulsing through
Feel the warmth of dawn

I must be more than
Every mistake I’ve ever made
How come you
Don’t go
Away
When I fail
Your love stays
I am so amazed

Stop and take some time
Suddenly seeing things,
You meant for me
Like a shell that’s found
On the sand
Dolphins in the tide

One day I’m strong
One day I’m weak
But every day you
Love me, love me more


The End ~ deus ex machina
“A god from a Machine”

Waves crash, they crash
But you don’t go
Waves crash, they crash
But there is hope
Yes
Yes
There is hope
You won’t leave me
