Safe Place To Land EP

Only I Could Know

When She Cries

Safe Place to Land

Whiskey and Wine

Ideas

Ready Or Not Demo

Fighter

It was hard to enough for me to say goodbye
Thought I was rain, and she was wildfire
Though I could not bear to drown out one more flame
I knew I couldn't live, without her just the same

It was hard enough for her to hold her ground
But she was so sure
that I would change somehow
Though I loved her more words could ever explain
I knew she's better off 
without me in the way

But I can't stop
even though its a wrong
I can't stop 
Falling more in love
I can't stop
Even though we're meant to be apart
I can't stop

It was hard enough to swallow my pride
But letting her go, set my heart on fire
So I knocked her door with tear drops in my hands
Before I could say a word, she kissed my lips again

But I can't stop
even though its a wrong
I can't stop 
Falling more in love
I can't stop
Even though we're meant to be apart
I can't stop

Rain and Wildfire Demo

Say your stuck in a life, in a world turned plastic
And every love that you thought was the one never lasted
Say your gonna cut the wires,
Cuz you just can't stand it
Well if your gonna run, don't you run empty-handed

Take me with you
Just take me with you

Say you don't need a plan all you need is a purpose
Something so unbelievable it makes you nervous
Well I'm not saying that I'm something exceptional
But I'll give you my best you deserve nothing less

If you take me with you
Just take me with you
I'll be the words to your song
Your patient your strong
Above and beyond
If you take me with you
With you

And we'll build a love you can call it a fortress
And live every day like an unpainted portrait
All the rocks that we cross I can't change into pearls
But if you give me a chance I will try for you girl

If you take me with you
Just take me with you
I'll be the words to your song
Your patient your strong
Above and beyond
If you take me with you
With you

I know that you think fairytales are for little girls and
All of your preconceived thoughts they were buried in the earth oh
And I might not be quite the man that you fell for in your dreams
But I can be more darlin

IF YOU TAKE ME WITH YOU






Take Me With You

There she goes
Make it look so easy
Flesh and bone
Still picking up the pieces

Tell me why
I can not cut the line
I watched you go
And as you walked away..

You turned my heart to stone
And I can't let you go
Cuz you turned my heart to stone
Now I can't let you go
Cuz you turned my heart to stone

There she goes
pretends it never happened
Heart and Soul
In the taste of her chapstick

Tell me why
I can not cut the line
I watched you go
And as you walked away..

You turned my heart to stone
And I can't let you go
Cuz you turned my heart to stone
Now I can't let you go
Cuz you turned my heart to stone

And I can't let you go
Cuz your all I've ever known
And I can't let you go
