Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light You can fill your days with dreams of old Dreams of being bold You can dress your nights with fantasies Of when you found you free Wish away all your days like they were Numbered in their millions or you can Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light You can fill your days with futures past Hopes of circumvention Drive yourself towards despair Drawn by dreams of domination Squander all your breaths as if They were never ending or you can Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light (Feel, feel, feel) Fill your life with light (Feel, feel, feel) Fill your life with light (Feel, feel, feel) Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Fill your life with light so you’re ready for the darkness Fill your life with light Feel, feel, feel

Skies are grey and weighted down The frost is hard upon the ground The cold it cuts into my face Nothing moves and nothin’ sways Winter sets it brittle gaze Frozen into place It’s hard to see how anything Could ever come to life again All seems dead and unforgiving But Even in the winter the birds still sing Even though it’s frozen they fly Even when you’re far away My heart still sings Knowing you are in my life In this dark and dismal time How could anything survive Stillness frozen into place Nothing blooms in desperate days Locked away beneath the weight Of cold anticipation It’s hard to see how anyone Could ever breathe a sigh again All is so cold and unforgiving But Even in the winter the birds still sing Even though it’s frozen they fly Even when you’re far away My heart still sings Knowing you are in my life Sing little birdy, sing little birdy sing Even in the winter the birds still sing Even though it’s frozen they fly Even when you’re far away My heart still sings Knowing you are in my life Even in the winter the birds still sing Even though it’s frozen they fly Even when you’re far away My heart still sings Knowing you are in my life

Room Bliss 05:02
Looking out From behind my eyes I see Grand vistas Vast oceans of calm Swaying trees A gentle breeze Something that rhymes with farm I don’t know what this is But I got this Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Sitting here In my lonely world trying to make sense All the wheels of colour All the armies And fences All dimensions Imploding nearby All the rainbows Exploding far away I don’t know what this is But I got this Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Some of us Been here before Some of us Will never be Some of us ‘ll be back again To go beyond the need Infinitely engaging Amidst the fire raging Hardly believe it Although we know it’s real Meantime, we got this Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss Got to tell you Got to tell ya Comin’ atcha, comin’ atcha Room bliss

When you show me your love Make everything better When you show me your love, when you show me Make everything good Seems like a long time I been waiting Truly, seems like eternity For you to give me sign Let me know, we’re on the beam I don’t need much Just a wink and a smile The subtlest touch Take me a thousand miles When you show me your love Make everything better When you show me your love, when you show me Make everything good All of the things that I wanted I finally realized Living inside my heart Blessed by your eyes I don’t need a whole lot Just a hint of a breath A whisper of your sweet love Means I never forget When you show me your love Make everything better When you show me your love, when you show me Make everything good Strange to believe It could be so simple I can’t even rationalize What this could mean Up there Down here Over here Inside When you show me your love Make everything better When you show me your love, when you show me Make everything good When you show me your love Make everything better When you show me your love, when you show me Make everything good

Unbelieving 03:36
Johnny finally got the big car Top down, tools around all day In his heart he’s big star Living all our yesterdays You’d think we’d never been this way before Burnt up all the forest fires Burning rubber, burning mothers Barren lands and funeral pyres It’s like we never saw It’s like he never knew It’s like we never Like we never Like we never saw When did become this When did become this When did become so unbelieving? When did become this When did become this When did become so unbelieving? Mary’s glad she got the dream house Fills it with her favorite things Spends her time courting rhymes Drowning rivers oceans, streams In her heart she’s a pioneer Goodness from her soul it flows There’s no place for children here The boiling soup it overflows It’s like she never saw It’s like she never knew It’s like we never Like we never Like we never saw When did become this When did become this When did become so unbelieving? When did become this When did become this When did become so unbelieving? Aah Aah Aah It’s like she never saw It’s like she never knew It’s like we never Like we never Like we never saw
