Tell Me Lyrics

First Kiss (Top)

If I am here with you
And you are open too
If I am here with you, we are
A better place, a fresh start

If I get you
And you get me
Then we get this
Our first kiss

We can be anything
We can see everything
Imagine just as us, the world can be
Not a world away across the sea
Rolling shore to shore, No in between
I am here with you
Yes, I am here for you

If this is an opening
A kiss is a hopeful thing
If we are more than this, it will show
A bigger place than we know

If I get you
And you get me
If we get this
Our first kiss

We can be anything
We can see everything
Imagine just as us, a world at peace
Another world away beneath the sea
Some things wash ashore, not in between
I am here with you

Yes, I am here for you
I am here to see
Some things are just meant to be
When there’s no fear
God, won’t you grant me this
Our first kiss

Light Of Day (Top)

Breathe in
Breathe out
That’s what it’s all about
Take it in
Let it out
You’ll never go without

Close your eyes
Trust your sight
Beyond the skies
You can shine your light
From within
No need to doubt
We can win
Never go without

If you listen you will hear
What your life’s trying to say
It can christen all you fear
Allow it, the Light of Day
Allow it, the Light of Day

Fill your sale
Fire that prop
If it’s a fight
Just let your gloves drop
You will find
That what you give
Is a state of mind urging you to live

If you listen you will hear
What your life’s trying to say
It can christen all you fear
Allow it, the Light of Day
Allow it, the Light of Day
Allow it, the Light of Day

So Take her hand
Find her heart
The sight of land is where your feelings start
Come ashore
Make a stand
Breath Taking is being where you land
Raise your flag
Drop your guard
Let memories drag
Your Always is your yard

Breathe it in
Breathe it out
Breath Taking’s what it’s all about

If you listen you will hear
What your life’s trying to say
It can christen all you fear
Allow it, the Light of Day
Allow it, the Light of Day
Allow for it, The Light of Day
Somehow, you’ll find the Light of Day

 

Factitious (Top)

As if you knew it all along
The story’s surges have you feeling strong
What’s calling you, calls out for more than you

You quote each verse as if they’re all rehearsed
The more you know, you find, the more you thirst
For a part of you, to find another part of you

You search for something you can count upon
The laws of nature as passed through some sacred son
Who died for you, but would you die for you?

When books close, you’re lost in thought
If all you know, are things you been taught

The search continues as the fire grows
The perch you swing from is just the gallows
Don’t hang your head
These flames are meant to lift you instead

The room fills as a choir sings
A tomb was emptied for what forgiveness brings
What’s wrong with you? What wrong are you party to?

You search for something you can rely upon
The laws of men as pulled from some sacred one
Who lives in you, but do you live in you?

When books close, you’re lost in thought
If all you know, are things you been taught

Like viciousness, Not forgiveness
In the headlines, you read
For the dead lines, you heed
In the bread lines, you feed

The bread crumbs on your path
Whatever comes will most surely pass

If this was cancer you would cut it out
If it’s the answer, then why the doubt?
What’s calling you calls out for more than you
This part of you is not just a part of you
Don’t hold it apart from you

Factitious, precision is not faith
Factitious, the decision not to wait
Factitious, take it apart and view
Factitious, Allow it to pass through

 

Tell Me (Top)

What was I thinking
How could I imagine such things
Who was I trying to become

Where is my reason
When did I get to hear
Who decided this was mine
That this would be my journey
Tell  me

I want you to tell me
Why it is you chose me
What would make you choose me
When you could have anyone…
Tell Me, Tell me

Churning in my head

I want you to tell me
Why it is you chose me
What would make you choose me
When you could have anyone…
Tell Me, Tell Me

I want you to tell me
Find the words and open your mouth
I need you to speak to me
If you must live through me…
Won’t you Tell Me?
You can have anyone, Can’t you?
Can’t you? Tell Me, Tell Me

I want you to tell me
I need you to make some sense
There must be a damn good reason why
You chose me…To carry this
Can’t you Tell Me? Tell Me

Is this what you’re thinking
I think I can imagine such things
Yes, I can be whole again
And you can have your truth

For if I am your reason
And this is how you get to here
You’ve decided this is mine
That this must be my journey
Then this must be my time
This must be what you’re trying to tell me
Tell me, This Is Mine
Tell Me
Please Tell Me this is mine

 

Kimsong (Top)

All along you were here inside
Not alone there’s no need to hide
You were put here inside me
Long before either of us could see

Now you’re out there like you’re in me
I’m about there if I can just let this be
I can get you like you got me
For us to get there it’s my turn to see

Always, more than here & now
Always expanding somehow

I am out there
Somewhere on your wing
You are with me
Through everything

If I get you like you get me
I know you ‘re out there, if I can see
You are here as you fly free
If I go in there if I can find you and me
I can find you
I can fly free

Always, more than here & now
Always, expanding somehow

I am out there
Somewhere on your wing
You are with me
Through everything

Always, beyond here & now
Always expanding somehow

Kim’s Song, that’s what you show me
Singin’ KimSong, just as you know me
KimSong, that’s what you show me
KIM!
I know now
You can go now

 

40 Days (Top)

Me and my boy been through the storm
Logged days on the wall
We left Biscayne after Forty Days
Just before night fall

Playin’ out behind us
A skyline pierced by arms
Layin’ out before us
The glades and the sugar farms

With what’s at stake, there’s no sizzle
It’s all about the sale
But that rock could not hold us
Now there’s nothing left to fail

Playin’ out behind us
A moonrise framed by cranes
Laying out before us
The glades and the sugar cane

You’re momma don’t know me
And she won’t recognize you
We’re gonna grow beyond free
If the Fortieth pulls us through
Tonight I’m here for you

Playin’ out behind us
A moonrise framed by cranes
Laying out before us
The glades and the sugar cane
A face to go with your name
The promise of tomorrow’s pain
The sun setting on this game
No nothing will ever be the same

 

Meant To Be (Top)

I meant to leave here hours ago
I never meant to be
Inside out without a key to my integrity

I meant to call you days ago
I always meant to see
That part you save for no one else
Beside your dignity

Whatever I intend
To use to light my way
It’s not enough to send
The message I convey
Whatever this is worth
I meant to be

I meant to stop this years ago
You meant that much to me
But every time I cross that line
I lose a part of me

So go ahead, bring me down
Turn me in or Take me out
But don’t think I don’t think enough
To work it out myself

Whatever I intend
To use to light my way
It’s not enough to send
The message I convey
this doesn’t have to end
I’ve finally come to see
Whatever this is worth

I meant to be
Yes I meant to see
What I said I’d be
Yes I meant to be

The glass I reach for nightly
The bottle’s nectarine
The class you ask for rightfully
The throttle’s reckoning
The bottle’s beckoning

Whatever I intend
To use to light my way
It’s finally enough
It’s finally enough
Whatever I intend
Is meant to be
Yes it’s meant to be
Yes I meant to be
What I said I’d be

 

Nothing To Do (Top)

So they say
Attempting to shake us
Another chance today
To somehow overtake us

Giving ground
In search of understanding
But nothing you have found
Is worth what they’re demanding

On our heels
Struggling for balance
On our toes
Our will unwillingly imposed

What went wrong
Was never our intention
The fact that we are strong
Betrays our apprehension

On our heels
Struggling for balance
On our toes
Our will unwillingly imposed
In our heads imbeds that resistance
In our hearts the wounds are painfully imposed

But there’s nothing to do
It’s got, nothing to do with us
We’re thru
There’s nothing to say
It’s got nothing to do with you, anyway
There’s nowhere to go
If you want nothing to do with this, let it go
There’s nothing to do
It’s got
Nothing To Do with you

What went wrong
If we just stand strong
There’s nothing more to do

 

Scar Tissue (Top)

Scar tissue forming on our sun
Light fragments past the blinded one
I miss you when you can’t find me
Take no issue & just learn to be

The knife as it opens
The life as it happens
The wound as it closes
On the scent of the roses

Scar tissue closing over me
Love stagnates when its not set free
Don’t misuse the bond you find
Take no issue, let the distance grind

The knife as it sharpens
The life as it darkens
The wounds that we open
To the scent that we soak in

The wound we’re undressing
To find one worth confessing
The blood as it rushes
To the places it touches
As time slowly passes
From the scar to the ashes

Scar tissue I have grown to be
This callous layer that covers me
To heal the wounds that bind me
I need to close up gently

Scar tissue I have grown to be
I need to close up gently

 

Threshold (Top)

Are you on your way in or on your way out?
Do you put your head down or smile like a clown?
Is it a contest to suppress your resistance?
Or is it a conquest to reveal love’s persistence?

Are you gonna cross that threshold whole?
Don’t wanna trust whatever unfolds

Do you rise before the sun to find your light?
Or do you stretch your arms across the midnight sky?
Is it a conflict to just leave things unresolved?
Are you a convict to your conscience or are you absolved?

Are you gonna cross that threshold whole?
Don’t you wanna trust whatever unfolds?
Are you gonna cross that threshold all alone?
Do you wanna trust whatever your told?

When the search party can’t find you
Does the start of this remind you of the day, he carries you?

Kick that door down and let yourself in
There’s always more around when you finally give in
No you don’t need a man to carry you across
Once you clear the way you’ll steer beyond your loss

Are you gonna cross that threshold whole?
Don’t you wanna trust whatever unfolds?
You can learn to cross that threshold alone
You can learn to trust whatever your told

You will cross that threshold whole
Yes you can cross that threshold alone
You will cross that threshold whole
Shouldn’t you attain more than just old?
