Man Burning Down
Dreamt that I was drowning in the
Sweetest tasting sea of sin
And it always seems I’m swimming after dark
Waking up to loaded rooms
I’m tripping charges feeling booms of
Chemicals colliding with a spark
Man burning down
Man burning down
It seems like I have gone and lost control
In this room there lies a charge
An elephant but twice as large
Electrical and always primed to blow
Man Burning down
Man burning down
It seems like I have gone and lost control
I’m all lit up
I’m firelight
This charge is more than I’m designed to hold
What could be more dangerous than the
Dreaming truths of sleeping men
Who never seem to let the past stay lost
Price of doing business but
Who’d have ever thought that it’s this
Quiet life that comes at such a cost
Man burning down
Man burning down
It seems like I have gone and lost control
I’m all lit up
I’m firelight
This charge is more than I’m designed to hold
Man burning down
Man burning down

Ballerina in a Bullfight

Guess I always sort of found it such a strange sight
When I looked at you
Looking like a ballerina in a bullfight
Get you torn in two
But you just dance around inside the stadium
Making your critics look so dumb
Every single thing you do just comes up roses
Never break a sweat
I’ve been the desert lost with Moses
Close but not there yet
You found the promised land, but sand is all I see
So how’d you end up here with me
Always makes me wonder
Wonder about you
You know that you could be with anyone who you could want to be
How did you end up here with me
You’re surrounded by a million anxious angels
Poised and in their prime
Always covering the spread on all your angles
In the knick of time
To keep you right in step with synchronicity
To keep the good luck on your side
Could be with anyone who you could want to be
How did you end up here with me

Swim For Shore

Swim for Shore
I will beat you at goodbye
I will say it’s time to go
Long before you will be ready
It’s the only way I know
I will never say it hurts
I will never say you’re right
Though my victories are pyrrhic
I will always swim the fight
I won’t forgive you Lord
You know I don’t forget
They say letting go is easy
I ain’t learned to yet
There’s no stop on my machine
There’s no system override
Just a series of directives leaving all demands supplied
I wait on Jesus to
Explain what faith is for
Go ahead and walk on water
I will swim for shore
I can’t wait on Jesus to explain what faith is for
Go ahead and walk on water I will swim for shore
Go ahead and walk on water
I will swim for shore

Dangerous
Do you love as deep and full as your heart can
What about that makes you such a smart man
Dangerous
Do you know the risks that run with the chances
Yes you're telling me it's what romance is
Dangerous
Somewhere in the morning sun
She slowly puts her blue jeans on
Her face is like I swear I've known it for years
I used to think she could float
Away
Did you lose at love and lay there in your corner
With your heart caved in just like a mourner's
Dangerous
Don't you know it's sick to ask too many questions
And the answers hurt too much to mention
Dangerous
Somewhere in the morning sun
She slowly puts her blue jeans on
Her face is like I swear I've known it for years
I used to think she could float
And when she finally did arise
All that you could do
Was fill the space that time was taking
With the sound of your heart breaking
Fill the space that time was taking
Do you love as deep and full as your heart can
What about that makes you such a smart man
It's dangerous
Do you know the risks that run with the chances
Yes you're telling me it's what romance is
Dangerous
