Whispers 03:45
Are you listening to me? I've been screaming from a hole inside of me. I'm just starting to believe That everything You're saying is everything I need The whispers in the wind are speaking of All the places that I'm supposed to be And the places that I'm not Well I've been running from truth Yeah, I've been running from You It's been a long time since I could sing a song It's been a hard time just trying to move along The sun is giving up the sky It's the cue for all my demons to come out from where they hide Well, I just want to be free Yeah, but they'll hunt me down They'll show their teeth And they'll beat me 'till I bleed It's been a long time since I could sing a song It's been a hard time just trying to move along I've been running through these city streets just trying to escape It's been a long hard way
2.
Everything's been bleeding for nothing There's shadows in the halls The clock keeps on turning Days keep on burning Framing the hours on the wall Don't let me go 'Cuz I know it's gonna be hard to breathe And I know that I'll fall apart if you leave The days have been crazy, so I've been replacing All my days for nights I lay on my back and I stare at the ceiling Pray it will all be alright Don't let me go Please don't let me go Don't let me go...

Miles Away 04:37
I was thinking, man, I know it's been awhile Since you could listen to me sing Since I could crack a smile I've been so cold these days just lying in the sun And though the heat burns up the ground It never warms me up Well, I've... I've been afraid I've left you miles away Your truth was more than I could take Well, I... I can't let go Been driving far too long I'm starting to lose my control I was dreaming of a time where I could see Everything in front of me, and everything in between Man, I swear that I've been changing for awhile But what's the point in changing, if it all just stays the same No idea where to go But I've still got miles down this road To find where I belong No idea who I am But I'm just trying to be the man That You want me to be
4.
don't feel Your hand here anymore I just feel it knocking on the door And I can hear Your hand starting to break With each and every stroke that You take Well, break me open I know it's Your heart I've broken again Well, break me open I won't even fight. Well, I've been building shelter from the storm I put every nail in every board And though I worked my hands down to the bone It never really worked I should have known.

These Things 04:19
I got these things locked in me I do my best, keep them from surfacing But I can't do this on my own I can't do this on my own I got these things surrounding me Their voices fill my head till I can't sleep Well, I can't do this on my own I can't do this on my own Well, I don't know where to go Where to run But you are the one that I lean on I can trust I got these things bruising me But it don't matter because you're here with me I can't do this on my own I can't do this on my own
