Growing Pains

Teetering

Love Lines

The Fold

In My Head

Come On Back

Lay Down My Arms

Rose

Cross Eyed And Crucified

Into The Blue

Ocean Child

"How lovely a life

All is calm
all is right
free from harm
full of virtue, glowing bright

Once in a while 
I awake in the night
to a scream
what a dream

How can it be
that the world knows
such grief
but not I?

Nothing lost
pain is naught
living long
that's the burden of
my cross

Once in a while
when it rains
I smile and say

How is it fair
to the rest?
Do I dare to believe I'm free,
free from the pain?

How lovely a lie."

How Lovely

"Eyes of Pain"

I look into the eyes of pain
It's staring back from within

When it's cold outside
When it's calling my name
When I don't know whether I'm alive
I'm alright

It's not what you had hoped to see
It's only what you believe will be

When this road of life is lonely
When it's all in your head
And when you don't know whether or not
You'll survive
I'm on your side

It's not what you had hoped to see
It's only what you believe will be

Eyes Of Pain
