We've planted a seed An ever-growing wonder To a beautiful tree Grow Each branch outstretched And different from the rest (From the rest) Where the old have broken off Some easier than the last The right ones have grown in To fill in the gaps And all are equal in love and trust And all are a part of something So much bigger than this Through the trials Our tongues are tied To trying times So many unsaid lines So many unsaid lies Our lives were over at so many moments So many moments, so many And now they're all just beginning And now they're all just beginning Our lives were over at so many moments I have never been so consumed And I have never loved it more To be devoted to letting all see What it is to live in the love of others To live in the love of my brothers And spilling back all that anyone has ever spilled for me To show that to those who have never seen Four years ago we planted a seed Found that foundation that we need Strived for the perfect balance To show love and show compassion And our vision for this world Will not die when we are dead (When we are dead) And our vision for this world Will not die when we are dead (When we are dead) When we are dead, oh My future started with the first note That I ever played The first note that was ever sang My future started with the first note That I ever played The first note that was ever sang The first note that was ever sang (The first note that was ever sang) When we started living with purpose And writing with meaning (The first note that was ever sang) This is what we were made for Every day I live this future (The first note that was ever sang) The first note that was ever sang The first note that was ever sang

Don't catch me at the wrong time or you will feel my wrath The one I wished I never had I need to rid myself of resentment and every last bit of it If I'm going to live up to the things I've written I need to clear my mind of this anger and all the rage that I've held near If I'm going to live up to the words I've spoken But I haven't yet Letting go is how I can start to fight my way Out of this trench I've dug In this war against myself But I haven't yet, but I haven't yet Don't catch me at the wrong time or you will feel my wrath The one I wished I never had I wish I never had this demon inside I wish I knew how to cast it out I wish I never had this demon inside I wish I knew how to cast it out But I fear it will never leave me But I fear it will never leave me I need to rid myself of resentment and every last bit of it If I'm going to live up to the things I've written I need to clear my mind of this anger and all the rage that I've held near If I'm going to live up to the words I've spoken Letting go, just let it go I know, I know Letting go, just let it go I know, I know Letting go, just let it go I know, I know Letting go, just let it go I know I know I need to let go of everything that has Ever made me think of myself better I'm not better than anyone else Of anything that's filled me with anger That I have taken out on everyone else These demons will never leave me I can only find ways to not let them out These demons will never leave me But I control them Not the other way around

The trouble with the straight and the narrow Is its so thin, I keep sliding off to the side And the devil makes good use of these hands of mine And if Jesus is the straight path that saves Then I'm condemned to live my whole life on the curb On the crossroads with the devil, I'll dwell and I'll count my years You know that I got a little something I should say I guess that I'm just so easily led astray It's alright because I know my own way back home from here And I don't fall of the wagon you know I take a dive and go as deep as I can go Don't hold your breath cause I'm coming up slow, this time. And the trouble with the straight and the narrow Is its so thin, I keep sliding off to the side And the devil makes good use of these hands of mine You know that I got a little problem or two I guess that I keep on taking a few I've been told its not the best thing that I can do, right now And I don't go looking for my sins you know They come out waiting, and I just get on and go Don't hold your breath cause I'm coming up slow this time And the trouble with the straight and the narrow Is its so thin, I keep sliding off to the side And the devil makes good use of these hands of mine And if Jesus is the straight path that saves Then I'm condemned to live my whole life on the curb On the crossroads with the devil, I'll dwell and I'll count my years And the devil makes (straight and narow's so thin) And the devil makes (straight and narow's so thin) And the devil makes, good use of these hands of mine And the devil makes (straight and narow's so thin) And the devil makes (straight and narow's so thin) And the devil makes, good use of these hands of mine

Tonight we're the sea and the salty breeze The milk from your breast is on my lips And lovelier words from your mouth to me When salty my sweat and fingertips Our hands they seek the end of afternoons My hands believe and move over you Tonight, we're the sea and the rhythm there The waves and the wind and night is black Tonight we're the scent of your long black hair Spread out like your breath across my back Your hands they move like waves over me Beneath the moon, tonight, we're the sea

Please, remember me happily By the rosebush laughing With bruises on my chin The time when we counted every black car passing Your house beneath the hill and up until Someone caught us in the kitchen With maps, a mountain range, a piggy bank A vision too removed to mention But please, remember me fondly I heard from someone you're still pretty And then they went on to say that the pearly gates Had some eloquent graffiti Like "We'll meet again" and "Fuck the man" And "Tell my mother not to worry" And angels with their gray handshakes Were always done in such a hurry And please, remember me at Halloween Making fools of all the neighbors Our faces painted white by midnight We'd forgotten one another And when the morning came, I was ashamed Only now it seems so silly That season left the world and then returned But now you're lit up by the city So please, remember me mistakenly In the window of the tallest tower call Then pass us by but much too high To see the empty road at happy hour Gleam and resonate just like the gates Around the holy kingdom With words like "Lost and found" and "Don't look down" And "Someone save temptation" And please, remember me as in the dream We had as rug-burned babies Among the fallen trees and fast asleep Beside the lions and the ladies That called you what you like and even might Give a gift for your behavior A fleeting chance to see a trapeze Swinger high as any savior But please, remember me, my misery And how it lost me all I wanted Those dogs that love the rain and chasing trains The colored birds above their running In circles 'round the well and where it spells On the wall behind St. Peter's So bright on cinder gray and spray paint "Who the hell can see forever?" And please, remember me seldomly In the car behind the carnival My hand between your knees, you turn from me And said the trapeze act was wonderful But never meant to last, the clowns that passed Saw me just come up with anger When it filled with circus dogs, the parking lot Had an element of danger So please, remember me, finally And all my uphill clawing, my dear But if I make the pearly gates Do my best to make a drawing Of God and Lucifer, a boy and girl An angel kissing on a sinner A monkey and a man, a marching band All around the frightened trapeze swingers Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na-na-na-na Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na-na-na-na Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na-na-na-na Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na-na-na-na
