Be Home

Home I make this up to make it be
I write it down and up it comes for me
This place we made we made with our care
We fly and fall and die in our air
We can. We can make it. We can make it be home
Home I make this up but can’t make this up
Tear it down and drink from every cup
This place we made we made with our care
We fly and fall and die in our air
We can. We can make it. We can make it be home
Home we want this home please
Repair regrets return receive reprise
This place we made we made with our care
We fly and fall and die in our air
Home I make this up to make it be
I write it down and up it comes for me
This place we made we made with our care
We fly and fall and die in our air
We can. We can make it. We can make it be home

We Hope
02:44
|

|
Here we are. We are not alone
dreaming of a feeling of home
We hold we hold we hold onto the ones we love and
hope it goes on forever, spinning round and round we go
We hope it goes on forever, we hope, we hope, we hope, we hope
Here we are. We are where we roam
floating fast into the unknown
we go we go we go under the lights above and
hope it goes on forever, spinning round and round we go
we hope it goes on forever, we hope, we hope, we hope, we hope
Time goes, it slows us, we know each moment is one closer
to the last one we will know now
There we were dreaming of our lives
missing that which opened our eyes
we see we see we see what we all can be and
hope it goes on forever, spinning round and round we go
and we hope it goes on forever, we hope, we hope, we hope, we hope
Here we are. We are not alone
dreaming of a feeling of home
We hold we hold we hold onto the ones we love and
hope it goes on forever, spinning round and round we go
We hope it goes on forever, we hope, we hope, we hope, we hope

Old is New
03:33

Everything is old is new. Everything new is old news, old is new, old is new
Down the road we go. Life continues on then
everything is changed, all things rearranged. Everything old is new
Down the road we went making life with love
Down through twists and turns making life and death then
everything is changed, all things rearranged. Everything old is new
Only we can. Only we can. If only we can keep going
down the road we built. Life continues on then
everything is changed, all things rearranged. Everything old is new
Everything old is everything old is everything old is new
Everything new is old news, old is new, old is new
If everything old is new then what will we ever do to feel every way, every day
Everything new is old news, old is new, old is new

An Answer
02:36
|
|||
|
Is there an answer, is there a time
Is there a reason you’re on my mind
I want your past. I want you when
you saw all things in your own skin
Is it sunshine or is it rain
I don’t know whether you’re in my brain
or in my heart, though I can feel it’s a good start
I know the answer I know the way
I know I like the way you say
I had your glance and I want your mind
to see it all, at once aligned
Is it sunshine or is it rain
I don’t know whether you’re in my brain
or in my heart, though I can feel it’s a good start
We are the answer, we are the time
We are everything all aligned
Is it sunshine or is it rain
I don’t know whether you’re in my brain
or in my heart, though I can feel it’s a good start

Around the Sun
02:43
|
|||
|
One year gone by day by day memory holds some
We’ve circled and spun through it so we’ll remember one
journey around the sun, from here to dust
to somewhere good to give some hope for us
around the sun
We didn’t do enough with our time to try not to miss
Anything that could have been, for meaning on this
journey around the sun, from here to dust
to somewhere good to give some hope for us
around the sun, spinning, around the sun, spinning,
One year gone by day by day by memory holds some
We’ve circled and spun through it so we’ll remember one
journey around the sun, from here to dust
to somewhere good to give some hope for us
around the sun

Waves
03:04
|
|||
|
When we travel home, the waves will guide us there
As we begin again the waves will guide us there
Though we’ve lost our sight the waves will guide us there
Now we can find our way the waves will guide us there
The water knows which way to flow, which way to go on
Past we travel fast the waves will guide us there
As we begin again the waves will guide us there
The water knows which way to flow, which way to go on
When we travel home, the waves will guide us there
As we begin again the waves will guide us there
The water knows which way to flow, which way to go on

One Moment
02:42

Sun my sun the photos fade. All is old from you
Then with time all did change, never to be the same
All we hope to do is play our tune and make ours this air
for just one moment
Son my son the memories fade. All is old to you
In your time all will change, you won’t be the same
All we hope to do is play our tune and make ours this air
for just one moment
Change is the constant here in this moment
Change is the constant always
Sun my sun living in your shade. We grow old from you
In our time all will change, spinning, circling the flame
All we hope to do is play our tune and make ours this air
for just one moment

We Saw The Way
03:26
|

Modern mirror show me true
It don’t look like it used to, to me. How about you?
Foggy mirror show me the facts
Face me with the things I lack today. We saw the way
We saw the way to light, we lost our sight
We’ll fly until we land then sink our toes in sand
We’ll dive right to the brink, we’ll swim until we sink
Then end and then we’ll do it all again. We saw the way
Two-way mirror show me false.
Three ways and four steps in waltz in three, now how about me?
Silent mirror show what I can’t ask.
Face me looking past my mask today. We saw the way.
We saw the way to light, we lost our sight
We’ll fly until we land then sink our toes in sand
We’ll dive right to the brink, we’ll swim until we sink
Then end and then we’ll do it all again. We saw the way
Looking glass tied to the wall, looks like you can’t see it all
Within flesh I feel the skin, with your sight then comes your spin
Holding tight to memories, hold yours away from these
Facing some and seeing all, face your own reflected wall and blind us
We saw the way to light, we lost our sight
We’ll fly until we land then sink our toes in sand
We’ll dive right to the brink, we’ll swim until we sink
Then end and then we’ll do it all again. We saw the way
End and then we do it all again

Sing
02:35

Brother help me find this note I need a place to start
Timebomb’s ticking trickles out more terror bits than art
Sister help me play these chords these fingers are unskilled
Note by note we’ll make this be, we’ll add and shape and build
Sing, sing, sing, family. Sing, all, sing
Sing, sing, sing with me, family. Sing, sing, sing
Father help me write this line to be all it can be
Holding truth, clarity, and your pride in me
Mother help me sing this song from heart, soul, and pores
For all that you’ve given me, it’s less mine than it’s yours
Sing, sing, sing, family. Sing, all, sing
Sing, sing, sing with me, family. Sing, sing, sing
Father, mother, help me. Sister, brother, help me to
Sing, sing, sing, family. Sing, all, sing
Sing, sing, sing with me, family. Sing, sing, sing

I Miss
03:01

I miss the way you’d start to laugh
Eyes light up all surrounding air
Sound hits loud sound turns quick
Sing to bring us closer, then you went
Memory Maker make this moment be
The one to hold onto, to make myself me
I miss the hope we used to know
Make dreams and they can be made true
Given a gift on every breath
Wished first, then from could to do
Memory Maker make this moment be
The one to hold onto, to make myself me
I made you laugh out loud today
Eyes lit up, mine lit up
Memory Maker make this moment be
The one to hold onto, to make myself me
