LYRICS:
I wander 'round the town now
Feeling disconnected
Everyone I know has gone away
Thousands of years ago now
Jesus was resurrected
And I am all alone
This Easter Sunday

I think that there is something wrong with me but I can't name it
'Though I have looked for the word everywhere
Something that I once had has now been lost 'cause I failed to claim it
To have then not to have is just too much to bear

There are people - someone else's people - in my usual places
The spaces where my friends I used to see
These people dress and sound familiar but they have different faces
I do not know these people and they don't know me

I go into a hotel
I buy a gin and tonic
I watch people arrive and disappear
I think about the planet
And of how I am on it...

I'm not miserable
It's a miracle that I'm here

OWEN DUFF - The Resurrection (Easter Sunday)

I'm gonna play my bass guitar
I'm gonna pretend that I'm far away from this place
I'm gonna play my bass

I've been sick for a long time now
I was sent up the Magic Mountain to get well
For how long nobody would tell

Nobody's sure what is the cure and what's the disease
But the chaplain prays and the doctor stays 'though I wish he'd leave
They put my night terrors down to errors in my dosage
But I know they've made a mistake in my diagnosis

See they don't know that you broke my heart
When you showed up and stopped what we'd started, oh I grieved
Why did you have to leave?

If I could go back to any place
I'd go straight to the sacred space in your embrace and I'd stay 'til I die
Oh but I can't, can I?

Now I'm above you and your love they say I'll survive
I had to stop the love I've got just to stay alive
Still memories of you and me they uselessly linger
As I sit with these strings under my fingers

There's a girl here who cuts her skin
She says skin is the thing that keeps us locked in and apart from each other
I said "then I'll be you blood brother"

And we sit up here watching  the view
We'll sit all summer and all winter through
We sit together, just us two

I don't know what she thinks about but I think of you

OWEN DUFF - The Magic Mountain

These songs were featured in The Falls: Testament of Love. His Light Will Save Me was written for the film, to function both as a Mormon hymn (in its acappella form) and as a love song between the two main characters. With My Heart Held Up High is a song I wrote back in 2005, director Jon Garcia liked it and decided to use it in the film.

His Light Will Save Me (alternate version, acappella)

Lyrics:
Oh my precious one 
We're facing disaster 
Not at all what I wanted for you when you were small 
The peace we thought we'd won 
Lies in tatters 
Chaos pours down once again to drown us all 
So you ask yourself how in the world can I make it all right? 
With all your might 

Put a feather on the scale 
Do whatever good is possible for you to do 
You might think that you can't change the world 
'Cause your feather's too light 
But you must do what's right 
So that millions more can follow you 

People pray for peace 
The world over 
Then they fight to the death over how it's achieved 
They'd rather be right 
Than be happy 
How unhappy they would be to be right you wouldn't believe 
So you ask yourself "what can I do that will make this all right?" 
Well hold on tight 

And put a feather on the scale 
Do whatever good is possible for you to do 
You might think that you can't save the world 
One feather's so light 
But if you do what's right 
Then millions more can follow you

Lyrics:
Should I shake, or shiver, or dive under the covers
Dial 999 or maybe cry for mother
Or stay at home and keep mum like a good little boy
Or take to the streets and make some noise

Now how many times were we warned about the warming
We should have been preparing but we were too busy warring
Oh Noah it's too late to start building an ark
Just grab the dog and a dinghy and we'll make a start

Waterworld, Waterworld
The critics called the film a bore
But Kevin Costner knew the score
In Waterworld, Waterworld
It's time to head for higher ground

Just when we most needed saints and saviours to save us
We ended up with trumped up tyrants trying to enslave us
All lining their own pockets as the ship went down
That's when I thought - it's time to leave town

So I made a break for Europe but it was already over
The border walls were all up so I settled in Dover
My job got automated and I lost a bet
That's when I noticed my feet getting soaking wet

Waterworld, Waterworld
You're crying cuz the banks have burst
Well dry your eyes you're making it worse
Waterworld, Waterworld
It's time to head for higher ground

What is it with humans, can't we keep it together 
We seem to fuck up everything including the weather
I don't know much about Freud but is this the death drive
It's like we don't really want to survive

Waterworld, Waterworld
What was sci-fi in 95
Now's the story of our lives
Waterworld, Waterworld
It's time to head for higher ground
