Remain

Have you looked around
And seen this Eden that's come from the ground
Since it's gardener buried himself and
Yielded a crown
You see a vineyard has grown
From the place where he made himself known
And called the beggars and liars and scoundrels
To make a new home
He is good to us
He has sown our inheritance in the dust
He is good to us
He will raise us up from the clay always
If we only remain
If we only remain
Now only those on the vine
Will bear much fruit and multiply
Oo there's no excuse to stand all alone
And try to survive
Cus if you're withered and dry
And your fruit is sour, don't you go and hide
Cus at that very hour he'll invite you
To simply abide
He is good to us
He will lift us up if we need more sun
He is good to us
He will satisfy with rain always
If we only remain
If we only remain
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
He is good to us
He will lift us up if we need more sun
He is good to us
He will satisfy with rain always
If we only remain
If we only remain
And soon we'll taste the wine
That he has made from the fruit of the vine
That's ripened on that day from the seeds that
Were born in a grave
He is good to us
He has raised us up from the clay and dust
He is good to us
He will yield a crop from the grave always
If we only remain
If we only remain
If we only remain

It's Okay

Darlin', tell me it's okay
All this drab of everyday
I'm alone, but it's okay
Can't go back there anyway
It's a long way home to my heart
I don't know who I am or where I'm from
It's a long way home to my heart
I don't know who I am anymore
But it's okay
Oo
It's okay
Oo
My mind races back to then
When it was better livin' not pretending
Now I'm stuck in wonderland
Where everyone is pretty but
No one understands
It's a long way home to my heart
I don't know who I am or where I'm from
It's a long way home to my heart
I don't know who I am anymore
But it's okay
It's a long way home to my heart
I don't know who I am or where I'm from
It's a long way home to my heart
I don't know who I am anymore
But it's okay
Oo
It's okay
Oo

Fools and Lies

You've been lying low, you've been lying low
Staying far from home, you've been lying low
I've seen you here before, I've seen you here before
Hiding out the door, I've seen you before
Why do you go, why do you stay so far away
You've been alone, holding on for far too long
The night is meant for peace, so leave what you've laid
And try to let go of any mistakes that you've made
Don't let those fools into your head and what you say
It's all a lie at the end of the day
Can't you see the end, can't you see the end
There's a trap ahead, can't you see the end
It's all a big charade, oh brother you've been played
You will see one day, that this was all charade
Why do you go, why do you stay so far away
You've been alone, holding on for far too long
The night is meant for peace, so leave what you've laid
And try to let go of any mistakes that you've made
Don't let those fools into your head and what you say
It's all a lie at the end of the day
Oo the end of the day
Oo the end of the day
Oo the end of the day

Winter
04:49

The roses have gone to sleep
And frost is the morning
And silence is all that speaks now
Oh I am sleeping
Oh where are you newborn soul
Where are you hiding
I haven't felt the sun break through
Oh I am waiting
Though I journey far
And though I gather wood
Though I fight and work for fire
I grow ever colder
Even though I labor
Even in my hunger
No one comes to help the harvest
And this weary soul grows slower
I've been asleep so long it's all I know
They say that what you reap is what you sow
It's almost like I was born and raised
Underneath this clay
See the rolling hills and streams
They're covered in austerity
Hear the hush of stillness in this
Darkly turned serenity
Oo, oo
Oo, oo
Come child I am old
Come relieve this cold
Springtime won't you lift your head
'Cause I am dying

Glory
04:40
|

Where's the magic, where's the light in it
Where're the pearls that I've heard are hiding in the dirt
Cause all I see is, the barren surface
Of a valley seemingly unending
Oh as the days roll on and they press me under their thumb
I forget who I am I forget where I'm from
Lies surround me, and my heart condemns me
Why do I live this way when I know I'm not a slave
'Cause you'd say child don't forget the veil is gone
Even now everyday there's wine and song
Look around see how all your steps are free
Even now all your days are glory
Now when I am lonely, when my lights are empty
You don't leave me alone you are everywhere I go
And when I'm tempted, and on my last thread
You remind me I'm not who they say I am inside
'Cause you say child don't forget the veil is gone
Even now everyday there's wine and song
Look around see how all your steps are free
Even now all your days are glory
There is glory even now
And there'll be glory when tomorrow comes around
There is glory even now
And there'll be glory when tomorrow comes around
There is glory even now
And there'll be glory when tomorrow comes around
There is glory even now
And there'll be glory when tomorrow comes around
You say child don't forget the veil is gone
Even now everyday there's wine and song
Look around see how all your steps are free
Even now all your days are glory
Even now all your days are glory
Oh even now all your days are glory
