Beat the Drum

I am invisible but so is the wind that cuts through the air and freezes our veins
That cuts through the storms, blinds us with dust, moves us to fear and fights us to change
No way have I begun to lay down my rights to say you've already won
My weapons are drawn, heavy with silence for the ground we walk on
CHORUS:
Breathe
Breathe fire into my lungs
We'll be ready
Dangerous, the chosen ones
So will I hear the bells toll when the days are marked for the young and the old
Will I be the hero to come to, to break through the hurricane to bring back the sun to you
Ready to beat the drums
Set off a warning sign for us
Dangerous as the ones who'll never let go, never let up
Ready to beat the drums
I will be the one
CHORUS
I'm ready to beat the drums
Set off a warning sign for us
Dangerous as the ones who'll never let go, never let up
Ready to beat the drums
I will be the one

Abandoned
03:46

The compass spins, so it begins to settle in
That we don't know where we are
But we know that we're very very very far away
From those comforting signs of spring
The joy it brings when we can sing of the things that make us feel like remembering
CHORUS
We have been
We have been all but abandoned
We have been
We have been all but abandoned
The photographs of all the times we never had
Want to haunt my memories
Invading all of me
Like the trees I'm surrounded by but alone inside
I'm insecure, I'm wanting more
For the air to move me or right though me
CHORUS
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
No, not today
For I know the sun is shining down on me
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
No, not today
For I know the sun is shining down on me

Walk With Me
03:12
|

I'll be a nightbird and you'll be the right one to hold me together when the storm gets near
We'll build a shelter to be a protector of every dream we hold so dear
So our hands can feel the warmth of each other's souls
So our feet can take direction knowing they know where to go
CHORUS
Walk with me
So we can be side by side
Walk with me
Your hand mine
I'll hold you tight
Walk with me
In love with me you are tonight
Walk with me and show me how to love you right
Deep in the world there is dark and light
But here is one thing we can make right
Our love is something worth fighting for
I am sure
Deep in the world there is doubt and fear
And the strength and the faith that will keep us here
Our love is something worth living for
I am sure

Drown
04:37
|

It's a cool breeze on the fall trees
Where everything was just where we started from
And the green leaves and the bee stings
Are replaced with the colors of the sun
And I've lost track of the days
And maybe I've lost my way home but for now I feel fine
Lost sight of where I've wandered
Back to you I am tethered, your heart sewn to mine
But I hear the wind start to swirl about
I hear the frost coming in
Time is running out
I don't know what to do... but I'll
CHORUS
Drown in your love
Feel it all, till you've had enough
If it's all the same to you
Can I pretend that we'll be together in the end
Drown in your love
It's a waterfall, feel it wash over
If it's all the same to you
Can I defend that we should be together in the end
It's a brief glimpse, it's a last kiss
On our lips when we say goodbye
And a short glance of one more chance
To bring the earth and our past to life
And I've lost track of the days
And maybe I've lost my way home but for now I feel fine
Lost sight of where I've wandered
Back to you I am tethered, your heart sewn to mine
I hear the wind start to swirl about
I hear the frost settling
Time is running
I don't know what to do.... but I'll
CHORUS

We Will Run
04:39
|
|||
I close my eyes and this world is so dark and so heavy
I open my eyes and I see that I was not ready
For the smoke through the floorboards and the fire that began to start
For the shapes of the figures and towering weight of my heart
CHORUS
We will run as the temperature climbs
Fall to the other side
We will fight, fight for our lives
But to fly, we must open our eyes
With a rush to the door, the earth slips out from underneath her
So weightless she feels and unsteady for the child was not with her
Hurry, she calls, before the fear settles into the part
Of the girl who's aware of how much she must trust with her heart
CHORUS
We run past the trails, past the signs, past the post
Past the line of revival of hope
Past the black, orange, red of the looming, glimmering light
Lies beneath us, around us
Surrounds us into the night
Here are the words
Here are the songs we could not remember
The tune is the light is the light is the color of ember
CHORUS
