The Mapping Lyrics

1. Birth

i was born again
the symphony resounding in my head
could this be that we were all once dead?
oh foolish heart
to think you were once alive in these silent times
from the start
you had your ways and meager rhymes
could this be that we were all once dead
without the life of each graceful note?
move move move on me
move move move on me
could this be that we were all once dead?

2. Patience

it burns in my heart
and flows through my veins
i try not to feel
but i'm feeling the same
breath in the air
breath it in deep
these lungs feel like fire
i'm starting to sink

oh my god not this time
i swear i swear i'm fine

and honestly i've been waiting for so long
for a love to come and move me on please move me on

they say you need to
grow up soon
and don't you assume everyones staring at you

and honestly i've been waiting for so long
for a love to come and move me on please move me on
and patiently i've been waiting for so long
but love died in me from holding on
still holding on

3. The Mapping

a young man opened his eyes for the first time
and saw that he had lived a lie
against all convictions and parents' decisions
he lived his life for the first time
it couldn't be that we were made for nothing
that life is the hour glass that we just fill our time
could this really be some sort of true life story?
or is this the time we just wait to die?
alone and broken with our bodies open
this is love for the first time
it's not always the "feeling" but the coprehending
that struggle is a part of life
breathe with the confidence of your heart pounding
breathe with the confidence that life's surrounding
and breathe
i promise if i stay so delicate and grey
that i would only see
what's standing here in front of me
but if i truely live i'll have my heart to give
in ways we can't explain
because we're feeling past all the pain
the truth is we're alive
its just we're living deep inside these fragile, little minds
instead of opening our eyes

4. Perfect Picture

my heart broke and made itself aware ?the bitterness between each breath catches up in every step ?put in frames lay silently to rest ?the perfect picture of confidence without the slightest ??and all along i'm wasted at the thought of finding truth beneath intentions ??voice lay down ?give me one more hour ?between your noise and constant sighs i have lost my breath ?slow it down ?let it take forever ?and when it comes you've got nothing left ??boys and girls make yourself aware ?love is not any easy thing when your simple minds dont care ?and blanket over every word you say cuz words are just the alibi for every single choice you make ??and all along i'm wasted at the thought of finding truth beneath intentions ??voice lay down ?give me one more hour ?between your noise and constant sighs i have lost my breath ?slow it down ?let it take forever ?and when it comes you've got nothing left

5. Machines

it fell in your eyes
it fell on your lips
the sweat poured between us
with each irresponsible kiss
but we were so invincible
between our two hearts
like living was easy
and we were the first ones to start

oh young love we're so blinded
with each touch my stomach churns
and my conscience divided
on one hand there's morals to hold
but you'd be a fool not to see
just how far this one could go between the sheets

this feels real between the breathing
and your lips are all i'm needing
desperate kiss meets desperate touch
i'm caught between her heart and my poetic lust
i swear i've never felt this way before
the sunlight starts its creeping in but both of us are wanting more
and we're both lost inside our heads
but tangled limbs will tell the stories of what we did inside this bed

i am just a man
guilty as they come
oh i am just a man
and i'm the guilty one

i've been sleeping too long
in a world where i don't belong
breaking hearts that aren't mine to break
making scars that aren't mine to make

this is a scene
just like the movies
this is a scene
but we're so empty

pity i didn't see from the tears that rolled down your cheek
life's an unfortunate game
you've lost and i'm the only one to blame
i'm the machine that keeps it beating
but love isn't real (no love isn't real) when your hearts not feeling

6. More Than I Am

pretend you're a man
pretend that for once you're made of something.
try as hard as you can
but just like before you've got nothing
and as it begins you're floating through the room so slowly
your breathing is thin
like at a ship at sea that's lost its meaning
as you curse the wind
oh its in vain your still not moving
your heart needs to mend
but you can't see just what you're choosing

without regret we're living free
but we've done things no one else has seen
we're living like we've got everything
but make believe in the finer things

the pen and the paper
the thoughts that have been swirling through my head
the over acheiver
for once i am left with nothing to be said
this all began
with a little mishap trying to pretend
i'm more than i am.
i'm more than i am
i'm more than just a man

i'm sorry for the distance
i've made mistakes before
i'm sorry for the distance
i know you wanted more
between the time that i'm gone
i know i'll change so much
and when i hurry home
i'll make sure you've had enough

7. Between The Tides

i'm the maker of this incident
i'm the only one to blame
what started out so innocent
is now begging for a name
we could've called it what it was
but you were left so torn
so innocent. eyes open wide
i was simply wanting more

between the tides you kept yourself so silent
and you kept yourself so cold
with the sighs that moved on me so heavy
and the words you never ever told
would finally lay me down to sleep

i'm a simple man with much refrain
with simple thoughts inside my head
and i've worked it through a lot of pain
but i am coming to my end
with no way to tell just what you feel
we should go our seperate ways
and when Love decides to come around
it will give me my new name and say,

"between the tides you've kept yourself so silent
and you've kept yourself so cold
but don't lose heart because i am just beginning
with the words you never ever told."
but tonight i'll lay me down to sleep

8. Footsteps

again and again
i am plagued with contridiction
and its always been
the truth is just an option
but over time
i keep flirting with seduction
only to find
i have no reaction
to crossing lines
and i have ultimatly died inside

well wouldn't you say to me, "this is the way its always been.
this is the way it has to be."
i just can't seem to stress too much
that i follow in the trends
and i'm nothing more than half of the real me

blame it on time
blame it on futures
blame it on everything but your past mistakes
as long as it rhymes
as long as it has a center
you really don't need that heart to act so fake

and breathe it out
take a seat and listen
this is judgement day
and your interagation
there's no audience
no one to impress
lets be personal
there's no need to be just like the rest

well wouldn't you say to me, "this is the way its always been.
this is the way it has to be."
i just can't seem to stress too much that i follow in the trends
and i'm nothing more than half of the real me
but take it from the end and see
that i'm following the path
following where i need to be

9. The Architect

the sun it had to rise
the sun it had to bring the dark back from the night
because darkness left us dead
it left us so we couldn't mobilize
but light has brought us vision
made us see just what we've all become
and somewhere hidden
we burn like torches to see everyone
beneath the romance and confidence
we've blended with the architecture and the scene
and we've all lost our purpose for the momentary gleam
we were made to fight
we were made to fight
i've been hiding from the truth
i've been hiding from the chance to prove
that we are more than what we say
we are more than all of our mistakes
but soon it all begins to fade
and we are nothing more than what we've made
miserable. oh miserable soul
with a heart so young
but frame so old
"how do you delight in me?" you say
"with a mind so busy
and a heart thats gone astray."
listen. listen to my voice
i know there's all this movement
but i'm speaking through the noise
you know that there is hope in you somewhere
but countless attempts of fortune have left you unprepared
we are more than our mistakes
we are more than what we've made
you are more than your mistakes
listen. listen young heart
you are more than what you've made

10. Death

could this be that we've all been dead?
between the dreams of disbelief
my daily walk
my rolled up sleeves
i'm whispering those simple things
to help me sleep
and dream and dream
once i burned for more than a love
i burned for life
i burned so tough
i was invincable
but like a mother's touch it came to me
opened my eyes and made me to see
i'm not alive
the music i loved so pasionately has died
could this be that we've all been dead?
just over our heads
over our heads
move. move on me
i'm not gonna lie
i've seen better times
that were harder to find
and fall. fall asleep
but i'm begging for words
and hoping for dreams
with the soundtracks of my symphonies
but silently
i dream of the dark
its really not hard
when sleeping so firmly
heaven make me a place
this is the end
this is the end

Lovers Are Liars Lyrics

Searching For What I've Already Found (In You):
ooohhhhh some day we'll find our way home

The Perfect Picture Of Confidence (Without The Slightest Test):
my heart broke and made itself aware
the bitterness between each breath catches up in every step
put in frames lay silently to rest
the perfect picture of confidence without the slightest

and all along i'm wasted at the thought of finding truth beneath intentions

voice lay down
give me one more hour
between your noise and constant sighs i have lost my breath
slow it down
let it take forever
and when it comes you've got nothing left

boys and girls make yourself aware
love is not any easy thing when your simple minds dont care
and blanket over every word you say cuz words are just the alibi for every single choice you make

and all along i'm wasted at the thought of finding truth beneath intentions

voice lay down
give me one more hour
between your noise and constant sighs i have lost my breath
slow it down
let it take forever
and when it comes you've got nothing left

I Am Fashionate (Take Another Sip)
the waves the crash as troubles pass
take the pain in but your heart is barely barely beating
between the current and the waves it pulls
pulls you back and forth and now you're barely barley breathing

when you are done you've got to find your way back home
your heart is so strong but under-prepared
and you don't know...

take a sip to hide the hurt
cover the pain cuz you know that this is all decieving
and give them what they want
give them what they want cuz you're the best at being used

when you are done you've got to find your way back home
your heart is so strong but under-prepared
and you don't know...

if this is love then what have we become?

when you are done you've got to find your way back home
your heart is so strong but under-prepared
and you don't know...
better days have long gone by
left with the memory that you swore you'd never forget
hey like the time we sat and talked for hours
this year has gone by

Tell Me It Wasn't Worth It (I'll Tell You You're A Liar)
he doesn't care
he doesn't care what he's done to you
you say that he's perfect but lets get down to the truth...
he's always right and you're always wrong so you don't even bother
he's got all of the plans when all you want is to hold your hand
and when he doesn't call he doesn't call
leaving you to wonder, "do i have what it takes to walk away?"

ahhh ahhh ahhh
is this really worth it?
we've all made mistakes but this has turned to hate
ahhh ahhh ahhh
you're really worth it
i would hold your hand
take your heart
be your man
oh i'd try

love turns to hate and you feel betrayed
he's out with another
this is what it feels like to be broken
you vow you'll never be open
but i come along singing this song
i'll give you all my attention
i'll be gentle, i swear
i'll show you that i care

ahhh ahhh ahhh
is this really worth it?
we've all made mistakes but this has turned to hate
ahhh ahhh ahhh
you're really worth it
i would hold your hand
take your heart
be your man
oh i'd try

and if you ever lose sight of this just remember our first kiss
and tell me it wasn't perfect
tell me it wasn't worth it

Plans (To Make Plans):
its been a long time since i've felt this way
but loves a gift that makes you choose
choose between all you do and all you say
with everything in mind to lose
i don't think that i could lose you

so now go be on your way
i'll be on soon
just tell me the truth would you follow me?
i have no plans but i like to sing and i like to write
you think thats god enough to keep on these lights?

i can be all you've wanted
i can be all you've wanted

and i've seen love before but never quite like this
i've never wanted more
this fire in your eyes
and i'll be the one to blame and you'll be the one who's right
these tears flow down my cheek
i've never believed in love
i've never believed in me
your heart beats close to mine
and finally honesty i can believe this time

i can be all you've wanted
i can be all you've wanted

Hallelujah, Hallelujah (Sing With Me)
i've been alive but i have yet to live
frozen by the thought of being something more
but i still sing
sing a song sing with me
everyone sing hallelujah (hallelujah)
sing hallelujah

this is the sound of loyalty and all i sing is spoken back to me and swirling through my head
reverberating that i am not alone
although i've made mistakes love has been this new found grace

"but you've been wrong before."
quiet heart!
quiet mind!
this is right, for once, i'm sure!

i've been alive but i have yet to live
frozen by the thought of being something more
but i still sing
sing a song sing with me
everyone sing hallelujah (hallelujah)
sing hallelujah

lift my tired head
am i the man to be every sin that i've made?
you'de take a wretch like and you call me gentle
you call me strong
you call me by my name
you call me unashamed

"but you've been wrong a time before."
quiet heart!
quiet mind!
this is right, for once, i'm sure

i've been alive but i have yet to live
frozen by the thought of being something more
but i still sing
sing a song sing with me
everyone sing hallelujah (hallelujah)
sing hallelujah

sing.
(our hearts sing and brought new life)
sing a song
and sing with me
(believe in me)
everyone sing hallelujah

Intermission:
(Instrumental)

Finding Truth (In Finding Myself):
this could be real
this could be all i've ever dreamed
lost between my sleep and all i'm meant to be

love is so patient and love is so strong
and love never hurt even when you were wrong
you fell in love and you gave it away
but even a heart can be too much to take
you're too much to take

and this is the sound
the sound of everything and i'm finding myself exactly where i'm meant to be
and over my head
you're over my head
and between my dreams and lies i've been finding myself all this time

i've seen fear break the will of giants
but i've found home and something to rely in
i've seen everything!
i seen everthing!

and this is the sound of everything and i'm finding myself exactly where i'm meant to be
and over my head
you're over my head
and between my dreams and lies i've been finding myself all this time

Honestly (I Can't Believe I've Made It This Far):
good morning sunshine where have you been?
it gets so cold here
i can't stop shaking
hello open arms its been a long time since i've felt your warm embrace
you cannot break my fall

and lonely heart will be my friend until this "fairytale" comes to end

i find myself apologizing
and it goes and it goes

i just called to say i'm sorry
but you don't have to say a thing
just tell me that you'll meet me on tuesday
it will be okay the sun will still be out
so you can see the honesty in my eyes

and honestly i can't believe i've made it this far
so much for congratulations and celebrations on my part
once again i walked away
away from where your grace was layed and my heart is torn with out you
my heart is torn here without you

i just called to say i'm sorry
but you don't have to say a thing
just tell me that you'll meet me on tuesday
it will be okay the sun will still be out
so you can see the honesty in my eyes

Fall In Love (Breathe Slow)
breathe slow breathe slow
it happened again now
don't stare don't stare
you're falling in love now

and take your time
(you take your time you take you)

i'll get the melody for this one
and you get the harmony and sing it at the top of your lungs
write from the heart. thats all i've got now
and praying to God that this one finds you out into the crowd

love it changed me
and i've been searching for a heart that will bring me to my knees

Sunny Bell (Don't Mess With Texas):
hearts so close they're one
oh man i fell in love so hard it hurt
when you stuck your gun into my chest i begged for the release
cuz theres nothing left
its okay i'm fine
i swear i'm fine you only lied and caused my trust to die

oh my dear why'd you choose me?
the victim of your infidelity
i'm beside myself
i've lost the words
and every thought of you makes me feel worse
its okay i'm fine
i swear to God you stole my heart but now its time for my part

take one last breath and open up your eyes
this is all thats left
your beating heart will soon have nothing left
and then you'll know the pain of love's regret
it's okay you're fine
i swear that you won't feel the sting
you never felt anything

a sunny bell rings to the sky
and as your soul takes flight you realize youwere wrong before
but remorse won't save you anymore

Black Tie Affair (You Were Meant To Go):
will the sun come out tomorrow when you're gone?

dressed in black i'll carry you like i used to

and she goes
she goes
she goes

dressed in black i'll carry you like i used to

and i know now that you were meant to go
(all i want is you when the sun comes up
all i want is you)
